I am either 6 or 7 dpo today! Feeling fine, managing to keep myself distracted as i have a job interview tomorrow so throwing myself into preparing for that to keep my mind busy! Not really sure getting a new job is a good idea right now with TTC but thats another story! Anyone wanna see out the next week with me?

Oh, and welcome Daenerys - loving the name!

MamOfFrankie · 31/10/2017 18:39

Looooooads of symptoms here, but according to Ovia I had all the same ones at this tim last month and the month before! Arrrrrgh! Not POAS until Sunday so ordered my tests to arrive on Saturday, but I want one now :(

BandhaAid · 31/10/2017 18:18

Bah. AF due today but no sign of it and no sign of AF cramps either, but BFN.

DaenerysismyQueen · 31/10/2017 16:42

Can I join in the waiting? Am 6DPO and not a sausage in terms of early signs. Last month I was convinced and was utterly wrong though so you never know.

I have erratic periods but will be 11 DPO in Sunday so will hold on until then...well that's the plan anyway

ohnonotthemilk · 31/10/2017 12:46

Hmmm. Another BFN here this morning, think that means I'm out for this cycle. I know I am lucky to already have DC, but I'm starting to think something may be wrong as it's taken much longer this time. Also having to schedule in more time to DTD is a task in itself !!!

Bearsonstairs · 31/10/2017 08:17

I broke and did a cheapie this morning at 9dpo. Not even with fmu as I’d promised myself I was going to wait until tomorrow. BFN of course...

Still, temperature still up this morning and a day late for my ‘normal’ luteal phase so still optimistic!

ohnonotthemilk · 30/10/2017 21:25

Mumoffrankie genius idea! I swear my tests are watching me...they will start breaking free like gremlins soon...

IPokeBadgers · 30/10/2017 19:16

Ladies, thanks for the hugs and sympathy....much appreciated. A little bit calmer, I'm just in a situation where life has fallen apart a bit this year and ttc/not managing to is just the icing on the shit sandwich cake.

But honestly, best of luck to those of you still in with a shot this month xx

MamOfFrankie · 30/10/2017 18:57

8dpo - only 6 days to go! Ordered some ICs from Amazon, but put nominated delivery day as Saturday. Not sure whether this was a genius move or stupid move!

peterpanwendy · 30/10/2017 18:45

Hugs @IPokeBadgers x

Lndnmummy · 30/10/2017 18:41

Hugs to you badger. Banda we are in exactly the same day 9pdo. I want to test but that would just be silly, yes?

BandhaAid · 30/10/2017 17:33

Hugs @badger

BandhaAid · 30/10/2017 17:29

9 dpo here. Am going to try my very hardest to wait until Thursday to test!!!

IPokeBadgers · 30/10/2017 16:15

I have tried hard not to get caught up too much but this month has hit me hard 😢

Bearsonstairs · 30/10/2017 16:04

Sorry to hear that badger. It’s impossible not to get caught up in it all. Allow yourself to feel that way for a while and then jump back on the wagon!

IPokeBadgers · 30/10/2017 16:00

Thank you. Sorry for the rant.

ohnonotthemilk · 30/10/2017 15:47

Hugs badger.

IPokeBadgers · 30/10/2017 15:22

Looks like I'm out. Due AF tomorrow and am crampy and have started spotting. That was cycle 10. I'm gutted and in floods tears...for some reason I honestly believed that I had caught this month, various symptoms were giving me false hope (generally not a symptom spotter). October is always a difficult month for me due to the anniversaries of loved ones passing, but I was holding it all together because I thought this was my month. I'm pissed off and sad and angry....so many of my friends were able to decide they wanted a baby, and bam, within 3-6 months they were upduffed....why can't that be my experience too too?
Hope the rest of you have better luck, fingers crossed ladies xx

peterpanwendy · 30/10/2017 14:59

@ohnonotthemilk I’m the same! Said I’d do one a day then BFN this morning at 9dpo :( I’ve had loads of symptoms though so still hopeful.

Bearsonstairs · 30/10/2017 14:53

I’m promising myself i’ll wait until 10dpo - that’s technically late for me. That’s Wednesday morning though and seems too far away! I’ve suddenly got loads of watery cm today - not sure if that’s a symptom or not?

ohnonotthemilk · 30/10/2017 12:14

So I counted up all my tests and I have 5, so I figured I could do one a day until Friday (AF due Saturday). This seemed a good idea this morning but I got a big fat nothing. Am telling myself that it's because I peed in the night and it's still early but no symptoms yet - boobs still lacking in soreness, so suspect I'm out but may continue with my POAS torture !

onefortheroadplease · 30/10/2017 11:37

Anyone doing an early test today?

Bearsonstairs · 29/10/2017 13:53

Had a rise again today on 7dpo so yesterday now looks like a proper dip. Massively overthinking every twinge now. Normally get Af at 8dpo or 9dpo so waiting to see if anything different this month!

AJ89 · 29/10/2017 12:17

7dpo today and had a temp rise on my chart (0.5 degrees), does this mean anything? lol maybe I’m just clutching at anything at the moment...

onefortheroadplease · 29/10/2017 07:36

AF due 6th, no symptoms yet. I don’t know when I ovulated this month due to clear blue digital giving me constant flashing smilies Angry. So I don’t even know if I’m in with a chance this month Sad
