Anyone around 9 dpo?

Hi wondering if anyone is around 9dpo and wants to join me for the agonising wait? I'm trying to hold off from testing until at least 12dpo but it's so hard! I've never obsessed over something so much and I'm only on my 2nd cycle Sad

@teacuptale so stressful isn't it. Makes it even worse when af decides to be late for no reason

Oh no! @positivejade . I really thought you would be getting your BFP today. Has af ever been a week late for you before? Glad there was cake, that definitely helps 😂 no af for me today still but she will probably arrive tomorrow Sad

I'm 7 dpo did a test today Blushbad idea god I hate this waiting business

teacuptale · 04/08/2018 20:28

I was wrong before- I’m on cd 29 today! Still no af. I’ve been stressed recently so it’s possible I’ve scared off af. It’s not unheard of, but it’s very very unusual for me to have such a long cycle. And i typically have a short literal phase too. Really hope you all get the result you want.

TaeLovexD · 04/08/2018 19:59

HEY everyone, Can I join..?

Congrats to those who got a BFP and FX for those still waiting!!
I'm 11/12 dpo..
Took a test this morning and got a BFN.
Idk how to feel now Confused.. I'm due for AF on Monday.
I dont plan on taking another test unless I'm a few days late..
Really feel like my cycle is messed up this month.Sad

positivejade · 04/08/2018 16:53

BFN!
What a pain in the bum! Paid out for a
FRER too! I took it just before going to a baby shower so it was a bit emotional seeing my friend celebrating her twins
But at least there was food and cake to help me feel better 😂
Hoping to see some positives from you guys over the next few days 😊

teacuptale · 04/08/2018 14:05

It’s difficult, isn’t it Lavenderlove. My suspicion is that my body is playing tricks on me. I hate this limbo, but I guess we all do! From searchkng google it seems this could still be pregnancy or could be late period... just don’t know at the moment. I need to stop googling really. Best of luck to you- keep us updated!

You sound very similar to me @teacuptale I'm 15dpo and CD 28. I feel the same as I got a BFN yesterday but af hasn't shown on time today. It's like our body knows we are TTC and does things differently to normal. I've read posts where people haven't got their BFP until they are a week late so don't give up hope yet

OP posts:
teacuptale · 04/08/2018 13:23

I’m about 13dpo and got a bfn today. I’m on cd 28. My three previous cycles were 24/25 days and before that, between 25 and 29. I feel like I have a lot of pregnancy signs, but also that I should have my bfp by now if I was pregnant. For my first pregnancy, I had a bfp at 11dpo. If I’m not pregnant, I just want af to show so that I can start again.

@positivejade sending you a virtual cuddle! Everything is sounding like you're due a BFP today, go for it! Also well done for managing to wait until you're a week late, that's an achievement haha. Let us know how you get on today, sending you lots of luck x

Ooh really hope they are signs of a positive for you @2mummie5. Jealous that your nails have got stronger, mine are as crap as ever!
I feel more relaxed with symptom spotting today but I think that's due to getting a BFN yesterday at 14dpo, seems unlikely I'll get a BFP now Sad I usually have a 28 day cycle but was late last month for the first time (sods law as first month TTC) so I'm not sure if I'll be a couple of days later this month too

Hi ladies! Feel like I need a virtual cuddle today if you don't mind me joining?

Basically I have been TTC for six months and went insane with testing and googling and looking through posts from the 1920's! Then I had a couple of months rest and it was quite nice actually!

Now this time I have been quite relaxed, and not symptom spotted so much, but have felt some twinges and things in all the right places.

I have tested early four times (three of them messed up and the fourth was a negative FRER) so have just been waiting for my period, but it's a week late!

I'm having pregnancy dreams and all sorts but have been too busy working to test, but today is the day! Off to get another FRER and give it a go! I'm excited..but I am also terrified. I almost don't wanna do it in case it's negative and I lose all hope? I don't feel like I'm going to come on anytime soon either, I feel pretty great actually which is strange!
Sorry to just bombard, needed to get it all out before going to town to ease my worries, feeling better already! ❤️

Positive vibes to all of you! 😘

2mummie5 · 04/08/2018 10:47

Thank you @lavenderlove. I'm trying to feel more positive today. I've noticed something random though and after a bit of googling (as we do..Smile) I'm telling myself it could be a good sign. My nails have grown a fair bit in the last couple of days and the tips are superstong and white. Mine are normally shorter, the tips are transparent almost and probe to bending and breaking.

I'm also seeing an Increase in discharge (sorry for tmi)

So I'm now at the exact starve I said I would get to this time around.... symptom spotting every detail , googling EVERYTHING and also checking every wipe when I go to the loo. (Whilst partially dreading seeing a hint of AF coming)

On the plus side... only 3 more sleeps till we can test.

Hopefully no sign if AF is good news for you. Fingers crossed!! Xxx

@2mummie5 good luck will keep my fx for you. No sign of af for me today but I've ran out of tests (which is probably a good thing) so I'll be waiting until tomorrow.

Welcome @dreaminofholidays good luck! Have you tested today?

@blitzen 9dpo is very early don't count yourself out yet!

Good luck @Lougg hopefully your cramping was implantation!

Thank you @2mummie5 - your positivity is appreciated!

Good luck @lougg!

Lougg · 04/08/2018 09:04

Hi ladies! Just stumbled upon this thread while googling is ‘cramping 3dpo a sign of implantation’. Why is it so all consuming?! It’s basically impossible for me this month as DH was away most of the crucial days yet I’m still symptom watching like crazy lady!

2mummie5 · 04/08/2018 08:22

Don't be disheartened yet @blitzen. That's still early to be getting a BFP. Hold out a few more days and rest again.

Fingers crossed for you xx

blitzen · 04/08/2018 07:16

BFN 😥 at 9dpo but cd 26/30. 5th cycle.

blitzen · 03/08/2018 23:23

Good luck @dreamin! Yes, think I will try testing tomorrow. Dreading it already! Fingers crossed for you x

dreaminofholidays · 03/08/2018 21:57

Good luck to everyone.
Is anyone testing tomorrow?

I don't know how anyone can keep sane throughout this. It is a whole new level of crazy and it impacts everything!!

2mummie5 · 03/08/2018 20:54

I'm meant *loosing not looking

Welcome @dreaminofholidays. Good luck xxx

dreaminofholidays · 03/08/2018 20:50

hello all, please may I join?

This is cycle #2
ttc #1
currently 7dpo, this is my first cycle using ovulation tests.
AF due Monday

DH wants me to do a test tomorrow x

2mummie5 · 03/08/2018 20:11

Thank you for the kind words ladies. I'm trying not to lose all hope but I'm struggling.

Tuesday is test day @veeboo.

I'll let you all know how I get on. Just got to concentrate on not completely looking my mind over the weekend xxx

veeboo · 03/08/2018 19:27

@2mummie5 I think we are in a similar boat wait wise although I am really willing it to be good news for you because of your story. Fx! I have the same kind of pains. Really aching yesterday, the worse for a while but similar to AF pain and today random twinges in my back, legs and abdomen. It really is a mind@#$%! I'm not testing unless I'm late so I'll know by Wednesday at the latest. Due Monday/Tuesday. Did you say you're Thursday?

Try to keep positive @2mummie5 I can imagine you must be feeling under a lot of pressure. You've done all you can now though Smile buy more chocolate and have a fun weekend xx

ChaosMoon · 03/08/2018 16:22

Thanks @veeboo!

@2mummie5 you're allowed. The 2ww is always stressful but must be so much worse when you know your next step has to be IVF. If ranting gets it out of your system so you can find your positivity again, so much the better.

The pains you describe sound very much like how I felt 2 days ago. It's so unfair that pregnancy symptoms feel so much like af! It's impossible to know what's what but don't lose hope.

I have everything crossed for you all.
