I'm in the 6dpo in the 2ww and obsessively googling symptoms! Anyone in the same boat?

I felt like that yesterday aswell binglesplodge it was never gonna be anything other than BFN at 10dpo with afternoon wee! I wonder if I'm imagining things too as I can't think of much else right now.

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 17:30

I'm disproportionately disappointed at getting a negative from a cheap test before I should have been testing. It's like I've been making up the cramps and twinges: I'm going to find it hard to want to test again at the end of the week in case it's more disappointment.

happybus28 · 24/04/2017 17:16

It wasn't so much of a craving leannie I was just starving when I woke up!! Didn't have the banana on the toast I had it afterwards! I'm gonna try and hold off until AF due on Thurs but I bet I'll cave before then. 12 dpo tomorrow, feeling odd today. Can't really put my finger on why though! No spotting today though!!! Hoping that's a good sign! When are you testing?

PNGirl · 24/04/2017 16:33

Nnnng. My test was a cheapie stick but reeeally tempted to try a FR...

owltrousers · 24/04/2017 15:28

Its hard to say as I don't temp check or use OPK's but I think I'm 7DPO, but then again I could be 10DPO, I'm not entirely sure!

Too early to test. I got myself a 2 pack of frers ready and they are calling to meeee

bingle and 1000jobs ovia took about 3 months to start predicting my AF and O days correctly, so don't worry if it inaccurate to begin with (wouldn't be without it niw). FF just seems to go by whatever happened last month! I like Ovia best as it has lots of useful info.
Hang in the PNgirl! We can keep eachother distracted
I just bought tampax....grumpily...don't want too Angry
owltrousers and happy when did you say you're testing? Interesting combination: toast, butter, jam and banana; craving?? Hmm

owltrousers that's pretty much exactly my symptoms. Feeling a bit queasy today aswell as hungry but not sure if I'm imagining it. How many DPO are you? My spotting started on 7dpo and lasted until Saturday at 9dpo. Had a tiny bit yesterday but nothing so far today

owltrousers · 24/04/2017 11:00

Aw, congrats oysterbabe!

I'm convinced I have implantation bleeding at, browny spots of blood for 2-3 days now. I also woke up starving this morning and I've also been drinking and peeing A LOT. Ovia says to wait 8 days :(

PNGirl · 24/04/2017 10:08

I tested yesterday, BFN. 2 days to go...

1000jobstodo · 24/04/2017 09:37

Thanks bingle, I'll try this then. Luckily (in this case) I'm quite sensitive to my hormones so I can tell when I'm ovulating (I think) as I get major symptoms, but I might try the sticks if nothing happens in next few months. For now I'll use the app and enter the info that I think is correct. Thanks!

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 09:00

Yes, Ovia is free: I've only been entering info into it for a couple of months and only trying this month so I can't tell you if it's especially accurate yet! ;-) I haven't given it enough information to tell me exactly when I ovulate as I don't do temp etc (yet) but it's a useful place to collate period info, symptoms etc and has the ability to do much more if you do ovulation tests etc.

youngmummy3105 · 24/04/2017 08:47

It is soft hanna. Hopefully it is a BFP for me on Wednesday! X

hanna87 · 24/04/2017 08:24

@youngmummy3105 I've read if it feels soft then it means that there is lots of blood flow to that area as your body changes to prepare for baby...fingers crossed for u xx

hanna87 · 24/04/2017 08:23

GrinGrinGood luck to all the ladies on here with BFPs! So excited for you all -fingers crossed that they are all sticky lil beans! Lots of crimbo and new year babies to look forward too!

1000jobstodo · 24/04/2017 08:16

Is the Ovia app free? It looks good, might give it a go

No symptoms other than the normal happy. A bit grumpy/emotional, bloated.... what is interesting is that I have insomnia sometimes, and tracking my symptoms is (possibly) indicating that I'm having this the week before AF. Which is worth knowing. It coincides with being too hot! Good news about your spotting abating- fx for you. And hunger is definitely supposed to be a sign!
Aww sorry bingle, I'm in the same boat....for me it's tempting because I'd usually be in the clutches if the Witch by 25/26 days (27 today), but my last cycles have been longer, so I don't know where I'm at.
Any testers today? How is everyone?
Just wondered if there's any other 'older' tries on the thread?

happybus28 · 24/04/2017 08:01

Thanks bingle which test you gonna get? I've got a few IC strips, a FRER and a clear blue digi but saving the digi for confirmation if I get a BFP any of the others. I just had toast with butter and jam and a banana! Feel much better now!

youngmummy3105 · 24/04/2017 07:54

Just did a cervix check and it seems to be high but closed and cm is watery. Haven't tested though. Trying to be patient and wait until Wednesday

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:48

PS enjoy your breakfast: what's on the menu?

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:48

Thanks. I'll tell myself it's just because I used a notoriously crap test too early... I can't account for the few days of period pains other than implantation so hopefully levels will rise by the end of the week. I might even splash out and buy a better test ready for the weekend...

happybus28 · 24/04/2017 07:31

Ahh sorry bingle it is hard to resist isn't it! Hopefully it's just too early, plenty of time for it to turn into a BFP! I woke up this morning absolutely starving!! All I could think about was breakfast which isn't like
me at all! Usually takes me a few hours to get going before I'm hungry. Not sure that it means anything though!

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:18

Meh. Caved and tested with a Sainsbury's cheapie and got bfn. Not surprising since AF isn't due for days and ovia says 5 days until I can test. Why oh why is it so hard to resist?

youngmummy3105 · 23/04/2017 22:00

Let's hope so Leannie and yes I am feeling better now Happy it seems to settle down at night.

happybus28 · 23/04/2017 21:53

Do you have any symptoms leannie the spotting i was worried about seems to be tailing off...i do usually spot for a couple of days before I get AF so will see what happens over the next few days. FX it stays away. My boobs are still very tender/sensitive but other than that and the spotting not much else going on! I'm due 27th too so will try and stay patient now and no more testing!

Hope you are feeling a bit better now youngmummy
