so for the past 2 days I have been having body aches, boob pinching, cramps, nausea and a slight raised temp. I am writing this down so next month I don't go crazy symptoms spotting as this could all be pre af symptoms.

Congrats Whytheheck

Penny31 · 16/08/2017 14:37

@Betsyboo87 I have no idea how many dpo I am. Id guess 10-14 But I only dtd on around 5-9dpo. Very rough estimate!

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 14:29

I'm the same as you @Penny31. My head is making a big deal out these symptoms. I'm currently 7 dpo, but it could be anything really as I spot/have heavyish brown discharge for a few days before which I didn't count last month.

I'm going to try and ride out the weekend as our wedding anniversary is on Monday as it would be a nice surprise for DH.

Betsyboo87 · 16/08/2017 14:24

@Chooklass I've read stories where some ladies have still spotted and others haven't. I start at around 8dpo so it's possible that I will if implantation doesn't happen until after that.

@Penny31 how many dpo are you? I hate that the symptoms are the same too.

Penny31 · 16/08/2017 14:16

Congrats whytheheck!

I'm going to test tonight. I know it's probably too soon and likely to be impossible but I can't stop thinking about my tingly boobs and that I just want to throw up! They could be af symptoms that I've never noticed before. How unfair that they are the same as bfp ones Angry

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 13:58

@Betsyboo87 oh yes, I forgot you are a fellow spotter! It drives me mad as I don't know whether the spotting would stop if I was pg or be same as normal until af arrives. Guess I'll never know until it happens! My Mum said she still got 'periods' for a couple of months so didn't know she was pg ... makes everything so uncertain!

Awesome news WhytheHeck x

Betsyboo87 · 16/08/2017 13:49

@Chooklass I'm trying to hold off until Friday as that's when I expect af. My spotting has got a bit heavier though Angry

@WhyTheHeckMe that's a lovely clear bfp! Congrats!

@SydBound27 I'm not sure, I want to say there is something there but I'm don't know. HCG doubles every 48 hours though so you'll definitely know soon.

WonderfullySunny · 16/08/2017 13:28

Congratulations @WhyTheHeckMe that's great news  definitely stronger than the first one. @cottoncandee I did exactly the same thing earlier in the week, trying to be strong and hold out til at least AF is due Sat we will see how the willpower goes!

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 13:17

Congratulations @WhyTheHeckMe! Cracking news

SydBound27 · 16/08/2017 13:12

@whytheheck that's a SOLID line! Wahooo! Flowers

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 13:10

Syd I can also see something!

cottoncandee · 16/08/2017 13:09

@WhyTheHeckMe that's a very nice line! Second round of congratulations for you! :)

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 13:09

Heck what a lovely line!

cottoncandee · 16/08/2017 13:09

Had with as snow BFN this morning when I tested with FRER using FMU. I am only 8 DPO and I haven't been feeling pregnant anyway. Don't know why I wasted a FRER for crying out loud.

@northernlass81 congratulations! That's definitely a BFP

@SydBound27 I am still pretty sure I can see something there, not trying to put your hopes up but I am quite certain

WhyTheHeckMe · 16/08/2017 13:05

@northernlass amazing news! Congrats! Have you worked out your dd ? Mines coming out at 28th April! Fingers crossed for us x

@unicorn any update today?

I did a retest this morning after a v faint positive on Monday. I'm now either 12 or 13dpo and af due tomorrow. This is much more positive!

Anyone due to test around 18th Aug?

Thanks @chook I think it's too thin to be a proper line, and yeah can't tell if it has any colour. ARGH I hate this!

holzyb20 · 16/08/2017 13:03

@chooklass I am really hoping it's implantation too this TTW is driving me MAD this cycle!

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 12:59

I'm not sure Syd, I can see something but not sure of colour because of light shining off it. Fingers crossed!

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 12:57

@holzyb20 I had that feeling this morning too (7/8 dpo) - really hoping it's implantation. It feels odd!

SydBound27 · 16/08/2017 12:57

Sorry to post another POAS photo, but is this an indent line? What is this?

Anyone due to test around 18th Aug?
holzyb20 · 16/08/2017 12:53

How is everyone getting on? I am currently 9dpo and have these pulling/stretching and pinching pains on my left .... thinking this could maybe be implantation??? X

SydBound27 · 16/08/2017 12:52

@Uppity - the internet cheapie test strips are pretty sensitive so I'd still recommend them. they're also pink dye which is more reliable

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 12:35

Out of interest, besides FRERs are there any other reasonably priced tests people would recommend?

Good old google has scared me off blue dye

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 12:25

@Betsyboo87 when are you testing?
