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

@bethpotter145 my boobs are hurting so much today! I feel really on edge and a bit anxious for no reason which isn't really like me! But not sure if that could even be related anyway. Yeh don't waste a first response by doing it too early as they are expensive haha

I think it's probably too early @sunshine1987 don't rule yourself out yet

@2mummie5 they could be early symptoms! I don't think it's possible to TTC without driving yourself mad haha. Hopefully the week goes quickly for you, the days seem to drag when waiting to test!

@Squ1ggle same! CM and cramps a few days ago made me excited this was it but then nothing and with the negative yesterday I'm just waiting for AF to start now really

bethpotter145 · 31/07/2018 13:47

@squ1glle @lavenderlove on text the first response ones are fab but costly, usually anything with a pink dye like coop, Sainsbury’s seem to do the job! Still feeling really sick, boobs hurting, cramping has stopped but now have awful heartburn! Only have one first response left and pushing myself not to use it! I was that desperate to test something I used a tescos ones even though it saids use from day off missed period duh no surprise it was bfn! So got my fingers crossed though how’s everyone else coping today?

Squ1ggle · 31/07/2018 13:02

I don't either @sunshine1987, I was really bloated and achy last week so I got my hopes up I think but feel completely normal now

sunshine1987 · 31/07/2018 12:49

@Squ1ggle hard isn't it! I've got another frer and two digitalis upstairs that are driving me nuts! I don't feel pregnant at all this month so not holding out much hope

Squ1ggle · 31/07/2018 12:45

@sunshine1987 yes it's probably too early so don't give up hope. I've just been to Superdrug in my lunch break and bought some frer and their own brands and now trying to resist temptation to test again

sunshine1987 · 31/07/2018 11:29

So I failed and did a frer and BFN. So much for playing it cool this month....hopefully 9 DPO was too early to test

2mummie5 · 31/07/2018 11:22

Thank you @lavenderlove. I hope we all get what we ate hoping for.

I'm 8dpo now so can't imagine I gave any real symptoms... but I'm telling myself that the sore boobs and nipples and on and off achey pains are early signs.
I said I wouldn't drive myself mad this time round but I already am. Not due to test till Tuesday 7th!! Sad going to be a long week...

I hope your BFP is still coming your way xx

@Squ1ggle I ordered 10 cheapies from eBay for about £1.80 ish including delivery. Then saving my FRER for when I've got a readily on them. They are meant to be sensitive ones but I'm hoping they are crap as I got a negative today Sad

@bethpotter145 was a BFN this morning Sad not even a hint of a line! AF is due on Saturday so really hoping she doesn't turn up. My boobs are so sore today but not sure if that could be AF approaching.. good sign that you saw a faint line! Hopefully it will get stronger for you in the next couple of days Smile

@bethpotter145 fingers crossed it was a line, maybe give it a few days and try again?

Squ1ggle · 31/07/2018 09:31

@bethpotter145 my cycles are generally a bit all over the place and I've never been good at figuring them out. Downloaded a tracker a few months ago and that is what I'm going off so think AF due tomorrow or Thursday. Any recommendations on tests as well? I just bought the clear blue digital but I guess that's not the best for early testing. Can't afford to be spending so much each month either

bethpotter145 · 31/07/2018 07:25

@squ1ggle I’m 10dpo today too! :) don’t give up when’s af due? @lavenderlove how did the testing go? When is af due? I tested this morning was unsure on the result I swear I see a tiny faint line but who knows! I’ve woke up again cramping has stopped but feeling sick and boobs still hurting so we shall see :)

Bellafreud · 30/07/2018 23:17

Good luck everyone xxx

Squ1ggle · 30/07/2018 23:07

Thank you lavender. Fingers crossed all round lubilu

veeboo · 30/07/2018 22:55

@lavenderlove I know what you mean, I'll probably cave but I had a previous month where I tested early and it drove me insane!

Bellafreud · 30/07/2018 22:17

@lavenderlove I am 11 dpo today - was only going to allow myself one FRER this cycle in any case, just got lucky! Otherwise ICs all they way. I was a bit sceptical whether the ICs were working or not but proven they do today, even if faint. I’m on cycle 3 and this is the first cycle I haven’t totally convinced myself I’m pregnant through symptoms - was really nauseous and tender boobs last couple of months. This month I just had cramping from 8dpo which hasn’t gone away!

ChaosMoon · 30/07/2018 21:28

That's so lovely that you can use the same donor @2mummie5. Such a good idea to freeze it first time round. I really hope this is your month. (And everyone else's ☺)

@lavenderlove I'm going to try not to until Wednesday. Just realised Natural Cycles moved AF to Thursday, which is weird. Was definitely Wednesday yesterday... I have such a short luteal phase, I don't think it's worth testing early. Not that easy though is it?

2mummie5 · 30/07/2018 21:15

Thank you @lavenderlove that was always our plan. We bought extra and had it frozen since then.
