I have 11 days before af is due - we only dtd on cd6 and I have a 29 day cycle so I am not holding out much hope, but still symptom spotting if anyone wants to join me in the craziness of ttc !

Yep, symptom spotting is the worst! This morning I took the dog to the vets before eating breakfast and felt really iffy like I used to when pregnant with Penny.
Clutching at straws... probably!! X

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 10:20

I'm with you guys. I'm not sure what's pregnancy symptoms or AF!!

Kr250710 · 30/05/2018 09:56

Keeping busy wise: I get you, best thing to do...keep the brain and hands occupied! I’m off to the monster in laws so will have no time to talk about myself, think about myself or do anything for myself all day!! Haha! Enjoy your sewing @Tidyhome xx

Bas27 · 30/05/2018 09:45

@Peggyssue I feel you!
I'm in the first week of the tww and it's killing me! God knows how it will have evolved by next week.

Bas27 · 30/05/2018 09:44

@HidCat well if you already have the tests then I'm sure they do need using lol. Or they'd probably go out of date!
I ordered 12 cheapies and 2 frers as well as some scales from amazing yesterday. My apps want to know my daily weight.... not really sure why?!

Peggyssue · 30/05/2018 09:42

Feeling a bit crampy and bloated like af is coming soon so tbh I think I might be out this month..

Peggyssue · 30/05/2018 09:35

I’m holding out until tomorrow morning and I’ll be 11dpo so a better chance of a positive.. if not I won’t buy another test until I’m late and just pray that af doesn’t come. The last week in the 2ww is sooooo long and so horrible. I feel like I’m just completely over sensitive to every little ache and pain and set myself for a disappointment. Why are pregnancy and af symptoms the bloody same😩🤣😩

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 09:24

I'm going screwy too 😂😂

Kids are keeping me busy and lots of sewing to do today ready for Dd dance show next week. No obvious symptoms here, only cd21 so very early yet!
No testing for me until next weekend, it’s highly unlikely that I’ve been caught this month so I want to save my pennies until there’s more of a chance Grin the 2ww is so hard !!

Ha ha, my biggest fear is faint lines on a more sensitive test. In the past I always used the 25miu ones so a faint line was fine but I don't trust faint lines on 10miu tests. I want to see an obvious one in those lol. I've never been a POAS addict before!

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 08:45

@HidCat I'm trying to resist that urge Hahahaha

HidCat · 30/05/2018 08:43

@MrsLCW sometimes you just have to scratch the itch lol

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 08:42

@MrsLCW no you don't need to get a grip you're just wanting this. There's nothing wrong with that. That'll be a good thing to distract you cxx

MrsLCW · 30/05/2018 08:38

@Delilah7 I know!! I need to get a grip! Got my oldest nephew and his girlfriend coming to stay from this afternoon til Sunday so I'm hoping that will keep me busy and distracted! X

Kr250710 · 30/05/2018 08:36

Thank you @tvhearts

Stay hopeful everyone, bfns this early don’t mean you’re out of the running for bfps xxx

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 08:33

@MrsLCW naughty Nora! Worth a pop though. Yes defo wait until at least a few days before AF is due :) sending you lots of baby dust x

MrsLCW · 30/05/2018 08:30

Ladies... I need a telling off I've tested this morning at 6DPO 🙈🙈 believe it or not it was a BFN!
I don't think I should test again until af is due... but I know I'll give in Sun which is 5 days before AF is due.
I just feel a bit desperate if I'm honest!
Hope you're all well today ladies! 😘

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 08:20

@tvhearts I'm same as you staying hopefully but preparing myself for a negative xx

tvhearts · 30/05/2018 08:19

@kr wow good luck really really hope it's good news for you xx

Kr250710 · 30/05/2018 08:13

@Gracesmom28 you’re the exact same stage as me then - 9dpo today!! Waiting is boring but my other half doesn’t let me test until af is due otherwise I beat myself up too much. We’ve been trying for 6 months.

Came off the pill late Oct. I think it took my body a good 4 months to settle down and get into a normal pattern again!!

We aren’t actually using opk’s at the moment either ... just been using the Ovia fertility app but I’m considering getting some opks if I get af this month and not a bfp!!

Anyway that turned into an essay lol!! Fx everyone xx

tvhearts · 30/05/2018 07:55

Ahh ok maybe that's what I had then.. A short bleed a few days after..? Probably just talking myself into this... Not giving up hope yet but also preparing my self for disappointment 😔

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 07:51

@tvhearts I was told that's what I had when coming off the pill
So I came off a few days before my pack was meant to end and had what I thought was a period a few days early but now I keep hearing it was a withdrawal bleed from the pill x

tvhearts · 30/05/2018 07:49

Delilah whats withdrawal bleed?

tvhearts · 30/05/2018 07:47

Thanks! Guess we'll have to wait and see... My ds was conceived around 4 months after coming off implant although we weren't even really trying just not being careful 🙈 then my dd we were tracking and timing and I got early symptoms (like this time!) and a very early positive (not like this time!) 😞

Delilah7 · 30/05/2018 07:47

@Gracesmom28 Hi :)
Well, I haven't had a 'normal period' since. I've just had my withdrawal bleed so if I go off that it's either Friday or when my period would normally be which is Monday so debating when to test. Just don't want to see AF! xx
