Hi all,

Just started the 2WW (I think) as I’m pretty sure I ovulated yesterday/today based on Flo & the bloatedness I’ve had...just wondered if anyone was at the same stage as me and how they were feeling about it all? This is TTC #1 for me xx

How are you buntingandstarcharts and LG88

LG88 do you have any symptoms?

Well AF was supposed to arrive but hasn't yet but I feel like its on they way.

buntingandstarcharts · 19/03/2018 19:56

@LG88 do a test do a test do a test! An early one - go onnnn. How can you be so restrained? X

LG88 · 19/03/2018 08:22

It's still to early for me to test really, I am not due until Friday so can't really test before. I don't have any early response tests and the normal ones would show anything anyway. Ah fingers crossed for you that af doesn't make an appearance tomorrow!! I'm absolutely convinced it's not happening this month. Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 19/03/2018 08:13

I have a good feeling! I think you might be 🤷🏼‍♀️ Will you test? I'm due on tomorrow and still 99.9% sure I'm not either. My cheapies still saying negative. They're sensitive ones, 10miu which is apparently as sensitive as the first response ones? Please test and show us xxxx

LG88 · 19/03/2018 07:54

@buntingandstarcharts I really don't think it means anything.. I just don't 'feel pregnant' so I am absolutely sure a test would come back BFN! Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 19/03/2018 07:27

You need to test ASAP and show us!!! I'm so excited! 😍😍

LG88 · 18/03/2018 21:40

Nooo!! I purposely didn't buy any because I promised I wouldn't drive myself crazy this month. 🙈😂 it'd very weird, just the slightest crampy feelings and just brown discharge since yesterday afternoon. Not due af until the end of the week. Also now I think about it, for the last week I have been eating like I do when due or af arrives. I want to scoff everything in site, many salty and sugary snacks.. Oh here I go!! I promised I wouldn't symptom spot this time around. 🙈🙈 xx

buntingandstarcharts · 18/03/2018 21:27

Omg implantation!!! Have you got any early tests? X

LG88 · 18/03/2018 21:12

Sorry, wrong numbers, CD 23..

LG88 · 18/03/2018 19:40

I'm now confused about what my body is doing to me.. Last night and today I have brown spotting (sorry tmi!) and slight cramps but I'm only cd18/19 so way to early for af as I am usually pretty spot on for 28 day cycles.. Confused xx

Hopefulbunny · 17/03/2018 13:54

Well BFNon frer not sure if 10 or 11 dpo because I got a positive on the evening of CD 14 so may have ovulated on cd 15 not sure but anyway pretty sure I'm out.

LG88 · 17/03/2018 10:16

@buntingandstarcharts please don't feel alone! I'm in exactly the same boat, my husband doesn't want to tell anyone that we are trying so I can't talk to anyone about my utter craziness. Trust me we all have those days. I have sobbed on more than one occasion about it all. It is very tough and can be pretty stressful! Your not out till your out so it's not written off for this month but great that you have such an amazing holiday to look forward to. Hopefully that will take your mind off everything and help you to relax. You can always come here for a rant and a cry if and when you need to! Doesn't it make you want to punch people in the face when they say don't worry, just relax and it will happen.. It's like oh gee thanks, I hadn't thought of that!!!! Angry 😂 xx

Hopefulbunny · 17/03/2018 10:16

Those cheap tests don't show till later I think, frers are the best for showing early but obviously a lot for expensive, I may just waste one of mine at least then I will know.

Will you be testing again tomorrow

Hopefulbunny · 17/03/2018 10:13

Buntingandstarcharts, when is your af due?

I think you ladies are a bit younger than me I'm 36 so worrying about fertility!

Your holiday sounds lovely at least you can have a nice relax.

When did you test.

buntingandstarcharts · 17/03/2018 10:11

*anyone I have told not haven't

buntingandstarcharts · 17/03/2018 10:04

@LG88 and @Hopefulbunny I'm 99.9% sure I'm out. I got a pack of 100 early pregnancy tests for £6 so have been testing twice a day 🤣🤣 definitely negative. God I was in a right mood the other day when I messaged you girls! I felt so low about the whole situation (and I'm not one to often feel like that!) Had a proper cry, a sob kinda cry to the husband. What I meant by 'it's hard to find people to talk to', was that you can't chew off family and friends ears off because I don't want to tell people we are trying. Anyone I haven't mentioned it to just says 'it takes a while, don't fret!' I read that 80% people get pregnant within 6 months. So.... maybe next month will be our month? I'm going on holiday for 2.5 weeks over my next fertile window, so hopefully all those glasses of South African wine and wonderful safari animals will help with the current moodiness and tbh it's a silver lining that I can drink on hols, so looking on the bright side 😁 How are you girls? It's snowing! So nice 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Hopefulbunny · 17/03/2018 09:07

Hi LG88 and buntingsandstarcharts.

I'm not feeling that hopeful now. Not sure whether to test today, but might be better to know than keeping hoping, AF due Monday and already having cramps.

How are you both doing

LG88 · 16/03/2018 17:31

@lucylondon32 and @Hopefulbunny how are you ladies doing? I'm desperate to hear about a BFP from one of you ladies this time around.. Xx

LG88 · 16/03/2018 17:29

@buntingandstarcharts you can talk to me as much as you want to!! I understand exactly how you are feeling. You ladies have really helped me to feel more sane when I was feeling at my worst.
I have everything crossed that this is early pregnancy signs for you! I'm due next week and am sure it will arrive exactly as expected. At least if its not our month we can stick together next month to see us through again. Try to keep positive, the time passes so quickly and I am sure in no time you will have your BFP. It just feels like a long wait now. This time next year you could be holding your own baby!!🤞🤞🤞 xx

buntingandstarcharts · 15/03/2018 22:14

@LG88 thanks for your cute message ❤️ I always get period pains and sore boobs around 5 days before my period. Meh. I will keep you updated. When's your period due? You're so lovely and loved your virtual hug - hard to find real life people you can talk to in everyday life 😪😪

LG88 · 15/03/2018 17:16

@buntingandstarcharts don't give up hope yet!! It is very early for you to be getting symptoms of your period if it is not due until Tuesday. Plus they say that the earliest pregnancy symptoms are often confused with the start of your period as they are so similar. I agree, I wish there was a way you could make yourself forget you were trying until it happens. Chin up though lovely, you are still far from out this month.. Sending big hugs your way. Xxx

buntingandstarcharts · 15/03/2018 14:31

I'm annoyed and sad! I was trying not to get my hopes up but I feel disappointed again 😢

buntingandstarcharts · 15/03/2018 14:18

My period is due on Tuesday and I'm starting to get the signs 😪😪😪 It feels so long since we started trying 4 months ago. I wish I had just 'not been careful' months before we started to try properly. Cry. Feeling bummed. You girls? Someone has to get pregnant this time? I was so sure the pre-seed would do the magic 🤷🏼‍♀️

LG88 · 14/03/2018 18:21

Oh I know, why is it that even though we know we won't get a result this early we still torture ourselves and let desperation to know overpower us. Honestly, you ladies stop me from feeling like I have totally lost the plot. 😄 I'm OK, no symptoms that I have noticed but I'm already convinced I'm not pregnant this month so not really looking.
How are you girls doing? Any signs or symptoms?? Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 14/03/2018 18:09

Thanks @LG88 you're definitely right. I think it's probably impossible at 7DPO to get s bfp. I just couldn't resist as I have millions of these cheap ones from amazon, I thought why not! 😁 heehee. Entering crazy week! How are you and @Hopefulbunny?
