Thank you @EmilyB24 yes I can relate I keep thinking am I making them symptoms because I want it so bad or are they symptoms?

My boobs are tender particular my left seems to be a vein on it that's tender although did have this last month, I have found my CM hasn't dried up but don't have much come into underwear I had right side twinge today. It's so hard not to over think, I was bloated around 2-4DPO.

I've got 6 year old DD and 2 year old DD and I work part time evenings it's so tiring trying keep it together and TTC so with doing your degree as well I take my hat off to you! Let's hope it's a good both for two lines xx

@OctoberGirl91
I'm also sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you! Our AF's are also extremely close so we can have hope together (along with the rest of the group❤).

I feel like I overthink symptoms! This was half my problem for the selfblame of the miscarriage.

Recently - All i wanna do is sleep (Although i do have a 7 year old,parttime job and commute for a full time degree - so tiredness comes with this aswell).
I was sick the other morning (2 days ago) and get sudden urges of omg im gonna be sick but then I'm not.

Tmi but ive been getting alot of wetness down below😳 and feel the need to wear a panty liner.
& I keep getting a feeling in my left side of my tummy - im not quite sure on the difference between an ache, twinge,pain etc but theres for sure some sort of something i can feel and move around to get comfortable or make it ease off. (This is unnormal - i got this when i was pregnant before, and with periods it comes on my right side and on the day of,or night before, it begins).

Im not sure if there symptoms (because i want them to be symptons), or if there just things happening to my body that I'm over thinking.

Have you had any symptoms? Are the symptoms becoming more apparent? Xx

Welcome @EmilyB24 I am due AF on 20th so sorry for your loss, I lost my baby on 4th October to miscarriage and it's hard as like you said TTC literally becomes consuming.

Fx for your BFP and sticky baby dust! This a lovely thread and someone always here to offer support or give advice!

You had any symptoms this morning?

Hi girls.

Hope you don't mind me joining in the discussion!

I'm in a similar situation to you Beaumont21. Mines due the 21st.
Although may not appear until the 28th. Since February (when I had a miscarriage) my periods have been 28 days apart - 32 days apart. And one month I had two periods! So working out all the different dates is extremely difficult, and stressful.

I've been with my partner for 6 years and I have a 7 year old daughter from a previous relationship. In these 6 years I only actually fell pregnant once (but tbh we wasn't really ttc but wasn't using contraception, so half heartly trying.)

Since the miscarriage, ttc has taken priority! It would complete our family and be the best Christmas present ever!!!
For a few months after the miscarriage I found myself spending a fortune on CB tests and trying my best to hold off my period (I was down and believed i could convince my body to become pregnant lol, but obvs it didnt work haha).

Because of all this we gave up religiously trying in the hope a miracle will happen again!

The wait to take a test if going to be unbearable. Your comments on the thread gave me hope, inspiration and overall determination!

Fingers crossed for everyone!!
All I can do now is hope! X

Belle2008 · 14/12/2018 11:31

Not long to wait now then fingers crossed for you all xx

Funnybunnyfluff · 14/12/2018 11:29

@Beaumont21
Mine is due 24th ish xxx will power xx

Beaumont21 · 14/12/2018 11:06

I’m going to try and hold out for as long as possible before taking a test. My af is due on the 22nd x

Beaumont21 · 14/12/2018 11:05

I’m still having sore boobs but not as much today so I’m still keeping my fingers crossed! I started feeling quite sick yesterday morning and today but that passes too. I’m 9 dpo and my app says I can do a test in 3 days so I’ve brought the clear blue early detection. It’s hard by trying not to get my hopes up too much. How is everyone else? X

I am on 8DPO and CD 35 which seems so bizarre to me! I don't really feel very pregnant tbh but I'm hoping for different symptoms with Hope the baby I lost I had boobs that were so heavy and painful and never had that with my 2 DD's so I'm holding out till Tuesday/Wednesday 12/13DPO.

Good luck everyone xx

CD18 for me I'm just going to wait and see if AF arrives 😀 will power

Belle2008 · 14/12/2018 09:07

Hey ladies you all ok? Any one due to test soon 😁

DeadDoorpost · 14/12/2018 02:28

Hey! So we said we wouldn't try his month but so far we've dtd twice without protection. First time was last week I think and too far away from ovulation day (today or yesterday if my app is correct) and then second time was Wednesday.

Only thing though is that I've still got this weird paranoia that I'm actually several months pregnant anyway (can't feel a swollen uterus so highly doubt it, as well as negative tests) but I've recently been feeling really dizzy/lightheaded, feeling sick, and tired more frequently. I've also been having abdominal pains.

I'm really hoping it's actually a stomach bug rather than a horrible week leading up to ovulation.. last month I had almost 2 weeks of cramps during ovulation and it was horrendous.

Anyway, AF due Christmas day 🎁🎁 so we'll see what happens

thejollytrolleydolly · 14/12/2018 02:11

@Beaumont21 yes! Every month haha! It's such a pain waiting isn't it?!

@OctoberGirl91 not much really. Had a couple of headaches, a couple of stabbing pains in my side when I laughed but I was at work when that happened so could have just been gas 😂😂 I've been super clumsy and forgetful also (I don't know if that's a thing) I'll test again Sunday if af doesn't show. I'm not having my usual cramps and lower back ache that usually come a few days before but they might turn up tomorrow! How are you feeling? Xx

Beaumont21 · 13/12/2018 12:39

Feel like I’m driving myself crazy! Anyone ever feel like they just want to know. So stressful Confused

Beaumont21 · 13/12/2018 11:03

Thanks to you all. Fingers crossed for everyone! Feeling quite sick today and sorry for tmi but it feels quite wet down there! Also keep gagging a lot. So confusing!

Twitwooo · 13/12/2018 10:33

Have started testing with cheapies today, mainly for fun. An unsurprising bfn this morning!

Af due in 7 days and I am 11dpo at best or possibly a little less. Will test with cheapies until Monday or if I see something on them then try an frer. I think the frer on Monday I will actually take seriously and until then enjoy dipping sticks in my wee. Brew

Baby dust for everyone!

Funnybunnyfluff · 13/12/2018 10:31

@OctoberGirl91

No tests for me this month and just DTD when we could CD16 now and I know I have ovulated already so just going to wait and see. AF should be around Xmas week

Yes I would say so @Beaumont21 I'm 7DPO no cramps but boobs feel slightly tender. I'm trying not to get my hopes up as I'm on CD34 today 😒

I ovulated really late positive OPK on 3rd and 4th!

Fx for you @Beaumont21if you implant today could take 2-3 days before it's in your urine xx

Belle2008 · 13/12/2018 10:00

Thanks I know I'm so excited!

I'd Deffo test in a few days of your having symptoms it should show on a pregnancy test! Good luck xx

Beaumont21 · 13/12/2018 09:59

Does Anyone think it could be early pregnancy signs?

thejollytrolleydolly · 13/12/2018 09:57

@Beaumont21 yes you definitely tested too early!! They say at the earliest to test at 10dpo but even then it's not 100% reliable! I would wait until 10/12dpo and take a frer with fmu and see what it says 😁 good luck!!

Aaah congratulations @starryeyed13 super happy for you!! Yes I feel like I'm carrying cannon balls on my chest!! And it's aching up to my arm pit!

Happy Thursday everyone, nearly the weekend ❤️

Beaumont21 · 13/12/2018 09:57

We’ve been ttc for only a few months. This time feels different. I managed to get a positive opk on the 3rd December so we dtd that day, then on the 4th December another positive opk but hubby was away then negative opk on the 5th. For 3 days now I’ve got sore heaving feeling boobs and this morning almost period cramps. Not due on til the 22nd

Beaumont21 · 13/12/2018 09:49

Ladies can I have your advice? I’m 7days dpo and af isn’t due until the 22nd. For 3 days I’ve had really sore heavy boobs which has got worse. This morning I had cramps almost like period pains. Did a test a few days ago and got a bfn but think it was too early. Any advice?
