Hi ladies, my first time starting a post like this but I’ve been lurking for a while 😂
Wondered if anyone else is around the same time in their cycle at the mo?

So we are hoping something happens but not trying every day haha... but dtd on 10th & 11th and I ovulated a day earlier than usual this month, which means I O’d on the 12th!

Thought absolutely nothing of it until yesterday (6/7 dpo?) when I woke up and felt so wet I thought AF had arrived (not due til 27th), turned out to be lots of really like, milky discharge! Have had that since but started symptom spotting like a maniac now... mild cramping since yesterday evening, dizzy, runny nose (everyone’s got a cold at the mo though lol!) this morning a swear I felt sick but I’m pretty sure I’m just hopefully imagining.

Anyone else around the same time? Let’s make this a really lucky post!!! Fxxxx!

Well....I didn't manage to hold out to test. Done one today snd got a BFN :( It's still early for me to test but I just didn't have a good feeling and didn't want to wait for disappointment. My AF isn't due till Friday so I've tested 5 dats before on a clockwork 28 day cycle. How are you ladies doing? xx

MrsP4 · 25/11/2018 10:59

I'm 7DPO, nothing to report apart from the fact that I've been having some crazy dreams! Really hope I get some good news this month! Trying so hard not to get my hopes up which is going well just keep telling myself that AF will arrive if she does I won't be to disappointed anything else is a bonus I guess! It's so hard when you have friends that are pregnant and family do nothing but ask a my family still think I'm on the pill just can't bare the pressure I get that both mums want to be grandparents but just feel like it's not nice to ask or go on about it as people don't actually know what your going through! Sorry to sound like negative nelly! Hope everyone's doing ok! Fingers crossed for us all xx

EmmaLouise I’m sorry Sad what an insensitive way for SIL to act! It’s hard everyone just expects it don’t they. My mom asked me if I’m preg today too and I just shrugged lol! Just wish I could have said yes.

Fx for you all.

Im either 9 or 11 dpo midweek I thought maybe this is our month but I literally have nothing today im really convinced AF is gonna rock up. Used a b&m clear and simple with FMU its so frustrating espesh when hubby's family keep asking if im pregnant today was the straw that broke the camels bk when my sil who is already pregnant asked and when I said no her reply was what is wrong with you that just cut like a knife x

xmairix · 24/11/2018 17:13

I reckon I am 7/8DPO now and last night I had this weird feeling in my stomach, almost like butterflies or fluttering.

Emmalouise5688 · 24/11/2018 17:09

Fingers crossed for us all to get our BFP's im loosing hope now had a surge in cm that seems to have stopped nipple soreness has gone Af is due thurs so I guess its just a waiting game now x

MrsP4 · 24/11/2018 11:27

I'm 6DPO and can't help but feel more negative as the days go by, after ovulation I had sore nipples, sharp shooting pains really low down like Pubic area which I'm guessing is all just to do with ovulation, I've never had them before but was too early for it to be anything else, DTD on the Thursday Saturday and Sunday and ovulated on the Sunday so I defo covered it but I just have that feeling that I'll be on the December bus. Not going to test until next Sunday, AF Due 3rd Dec so will be testing a day early but should effectively know by then, unless of course I get any signs that will make me think about testing sooner! Good luck everyone, in the nicest possible way hope I don't see any of you on the December bus! Xx

How you holding out ladies?

I’m now 11-12 dpo AF due on Tuesday. Did a test yesterday morning and nothing so just waiting now not testing again until then!

My nipples are unusually sore but the feeling of just knowing that I had, has kind of gone Sad think I’m out.

I’ve never had so many symptoms but feeling like I was wrong now, I’ll be gutted when AF shows!! Sad

Emmalouise5688 · 23/11/2018 20:07

Mindymoonstone- No I dont normally get cramps in the lead up to AF and the discharge im sure I havent had this much before. How many days dpo are you? I have some cheap tests I just dont wanna test incase I get a bfn x

xmairix · 22/11/2018 22:23

Speaking on feeling different, my nipples are alot bigger than normal so not sure what's going on there...I said I was going to hold out till AF is due to test but that's seeming like a huge challengw now lol x

Hi girls,

Hugs to you MrsP and fx this is your month Flowers

Re Ovulation I know it’s crazy but I just know my day from the pains and CM and I’ve been right every month judging by when AF then shows ... from what I’ve read about the tests I’d say you’re spot on though.

EmmaLouise that’s what drove me to write this post hehe, i don’t normally get milky discharge during 2ww and getting it every days since Monday, not watery but not thick enough to describe lotion. Also having AF style cramps way earlier than usual. I just don’t know what to think, I hope it’s a good sign for both of us though!!!
Would you normally get cramps a full week before?

Why are our bodies so unpredictable haha! I did another test this morning and still nothing. So worried it will turn out to not be my month but I just feel different so who knows...

Emmalouise5688 · 22/11/2018 11:31

Ladies need your advice im having alot of white milky like cm and cramps do you think AF could be about to show?

MrsP4 · 21/11/2018 22:19

Thanks Girls! It's just so hard, hoping this is going to be one of them lucky threads! I had positive OPKS last week strongest was Sunday and then negative Monday so I'm saying Sunday was my Ovulation day so I would say that's right what your doing.

xmairix · 21/11/2018 22:16

It's a completely natural feeling to be happy for your friend but also sad inside and almost a tad jealous. I spent the day with someone who is 18 weeks pregnant and her and her OH decided they would TTC...they DTD twice and she's pregnant. Fingers crossed for us all that this is the cycle we get our BFP's just in time for Christmas.

How are you ladies estimating your ovulatuon date? I got a positive OPK last Friday, done 2 tests and the lunchtime one was the strongest and back to negative by the next day...so should I say Saturday was my ovulation day? x

Emmalouise5688 · 21/11/2018 21:41

Sending you baby dust everyone is in this together fingers crossed we all get our BFP's. There is a saying baby news comes in three's maybe your saving yours in time for christmas xx

MrsP4 · 21/11/2018 21:27

Hi how is everyone?
I'm currently 3 DPO nothing to report other than the fact I've still got sore/sensitive nipples from ovulation. Just feeling a bit down in the dumps, one of my best friends has just messaged me and sent me a scan photo and she's just found out she's pregnant she's 9 weeks and a few days. She didn't get a positive test until she was 7 weeks, because of irregular periods she just didn't know, I'm so happy for her but can't help but feel really upset inside for myself! Please someone pick me up!

Emmalouise5688 · 21/11/2018 16:00

Yes still holding out. A week tomorrow until AF is due. Started feeling a little sick this afternoon. Could be a symtom maybe I know feeling warmer than usual is one not sure about cold though x

Sorry for the delay ladies, mad day at work!

Are you both holding out still? I know how tempting it is... be strong! Nothing worse than getting that meg result when you’re convinced you are pg.

I tested this morning even though I knew it would be BFN Sad but it made me stop thinking about it all morning which was nice. Then I went to the loo and loads more milky discharge (tmi!) and I’ve been feeling sick again.

Another new symptom, ever heard of this before? I have felt really cold (using hot water bottles jumpers etc) and despite me being cold my face is hot and flushed. I look very pinky 😂 the kind of flushed you get when you’re embarrassed or stressed, I can feel my cheeks tingling!!!

Thought?

Emmalouise5688 · 21/11/2018 11:49

Im like 8dpo and going nuts symptom spotting. Last two nights I have had mild period like cramps and that dull heavy like feeling in my stomach like AF is gonna arrive then nothing in the day. How is everyone else? x

Bitsandboobs · 21/11/2018 10:57

Oh ladies, I'm 7dpo today and desperate to test, even though that is ridiculous!! I don't know how I waited so patiently with ds!! I need to remain calm and hold off!!

Good advice. I know you’re right, its a silly urge because I know it would be too early to come up!

Feeling overly emotional this evening. Just cried telling DP that someone beeped their horn at me BlushConfused

xmairix · 20/11/2018 17:19

I just don't want the disappointment of a BFN like last month, convinved myself I was pregnant because I had a day of feeling really sick and I'm never sick. I have another week before I cam even think about testing anyway. The clear blue ones say you can test up to 4 days before your AF is due so even wait till your in that window x

MindyMoonstone · 20/11/2018 16:31

It would be too early now right? Like 8dpo...

It can be hard after coming off the pill, I’d forgotten what normal cycle symptoms were so soon as I got sore boobs I was sure I was pregnant 😂 get them every month though.

Mairi goodness luck holding out!! I was not planning to test until Saturday but I am really struggling to fight the urge lol
