@Louise392 ah awesome, .. have you tested yet? .. any symptoms? .. i feel nothing and no symptoms :/

Louise392 · 16/01/2019 08:13

@foreverthe2ww you are due af the same day as me.

@hopeful31 yes not long now, be glad to know either way at this point.

foreverthe2ww · 16/01/2019 07:55

@hopeful31 good plan, holding off just makes it better all around, gives the hcg time to build up or af to show without having to see a bfn, it sounds pretty promising from what I have read with the hot nipples! ha ... i am due saturday and currently still feel nothing either way, im starting to think maybe i didnt even ovulate or something and maybe i just wont even have a period either lol but also :,( .. i tested this morning on a boots own cheapie and it was very much a bfn .. not even shinning a torch on it showed any glimmer of a line haha

hopeful31 · 16/01/2019 07:41

@foreverthe2ww how are u getting on?

hopeful31 · 16/01/2019 07:41

@foreverthe2ww not yet. I'm going to wait and do a test tomorrow. But I've woke up with no Af cramps so please let that be a good sign because I would usually get plenty of them.
I'm so afraid and excited, mainly anxious.

foreverthe2ww · 16/01/2019 07:19

@hopeful31 any news? .. just been reading through this post so now im curious haha :) fingers crossed for you and everyone else in this January tww x

hopeful31 · 16/01/2019 06:55

@Louise392 @Lammoshay at least the wait is almost over for us and we should know soon enough for this month. Xx

@Lammoshay I'm 19dpo but I'm holding out hope until af shows x

Katie199 · 16/01/2019 02:59

In my opinion there is no point trying to symptom stop during the 2ww as every pregnancy is completely different, take it from me in my first pregnancy which ended in mc at 5 weeks I had every symptom in the book by 3 weeks, I am currently 7 weeks pregnant again and have no symptoms what so ever yet only now starting to feel a little bit pregnant but wouldn't of know I was pregnant if I hadn't missed period as there was no signs and thought I'd notice as iv been through this before, so just hold back and stop worrying as hard as it sounds every person has a different experience and every single pregnancy is completely different :)

Lammoshay · 16/01/2019 00:19

@louise I’m due AF tomorrow and according to flo 14dpo but still getting BFN even on clearblue and FR :(
I have cramps as if period is coming, sore underarms but not boobs which is usually the latter, and sicky feeling.
Surely at 14dpo something would be showing so that’s why I think I’m out x

@hopeful31 You have had some good signs then, I have had so many cramps, sharp pains etc but have not had any pink/brown spotting only some yellow tinged cm on dpo 4 and 5.

That is the problem with working with kids, i used to work in nurseries and schools as a TA and used to get their germs.

I am the same, hate being out of control, wish it would just show on a test already!

hopeful31 · 15/01/2019 21:41

@Louise392 that seems like good signs for u!! Fingers crossed!
I've had cramps. A light pink bit of spotting 10 days ago. Sore and sensitive nipples. Lots of nausea ( although im a teacher and when there's bugs going about I seem to get little tasters so it could be that) only time will really tell for me now . And I don't have great patience for things I can't control lol

Louise392 · 15/01/2019 21:36

@hopeful31 some people have said on here that they lost all of their symptoms and still got a BFP so fingers crossed its a good thing for you.
My hunger has ramped up today, had cereal before the school run then had a maccys brekkie on the way back lol.

My taste buds have gone weird too, Had my usual soup for dinner tomato and basil and it tasted horrible, threw it away and vimto which i usually drink loads of doesnt taste the same either so switched to strawberry Ribena, thats ok for the time being.

What symptoms have you had up until now?

hopeful31 · 15/01/2019 21:08

@Louise392 I've been using frer too. I'm out a small fortune . I'm going to try to hold off now until Thursday or Friday. I'm due tomorrow and all my cramps have totally disappeared so I'm hoping it's a good sign! Good luck!! Keep us updated.

I swear I feel pregnant and my boobs r really sore

Louise392 · 15/01/2019 20:58

@hopeful31 its due on Saturday, i have a load of one step tests still left from last month that i am slowly burning down, all bfn's so far!
Ordered some FRER today ready.
What tests have you been using?

@lammoshay i hate it! How many dpo are you? Hopefully she doesnt show.

hopeful31 · 15/01/2019 19:13

@Lammoshay is ur af due tomorrow? There's hope. It ain't over till she cry's her bloody river 😂😂

Lammoshay · 15/01/2019 13:52

I hear ya ladies about limbo land, I know af is coming but again I felt sick- I’m going to be so cross at her when she is here!

hopeful31 · 15/01/2019 12:16

@Louise392 I didn't test this morning because I couldn't bare to see the bfn again. I'll test tomorrow. I will cry if it's a bfn.

When is it ur due??

Louise392 · 15/01/2019 10:27

Not at all @hopeful31, I am convinced i am but then i take a test and its negative and i just think to myself 'oh well maybe next month' when i know its probably too early really to test at 8dpo, I am due AF Saturday so its only 5 days away, feels like a month!

So only 2 more days and you are late (the latest) for AF then, Did you test again this morning?

That armpit ache really hurt last night and started down the side of my boob too, its gone this morning though. Feel like i have loads of symptoms, then they all disappear and i think i am out then i have more and think maybe i am.

Hate this limboland!!

hopeful31 · 14/01/2019 20:52

Yes I was due between sat(past) and this Wednesday. I can be irregular. Is it weird that I FEEL pregnant? Like I think I could be but it just won't show up. Also I might just be going crazy lol

I really hope that it's a good sign for u!! Fingers crossed

Louise392 · 14/01/2019 20:47

I hope so @hopeful31 Been cleaning my daughters room with her this evening and now i have a pain under my armpit, really weird!

So are you past your AF due date? did you say between last sat and this weds?

My BBS have hurt really bad the past 3 months every time after ovulation but this time they are only just starting to to be sore, just under my nipples, hoping that is a good sign as its not the usual for this far into the 2ww.

Fingers crossed you get a BFP tomorrow!

hopeful31 · 14/01/2019 15:55

Good luck @Lammoshay xx

@Louise392 I hope you get ur bfp with those signs .

My af due between Saturday and this Wednesday. Had cramps yesterday and they r completely gone. Nipples are sensitive and at times sore and hot to touch. I'll test again tomorrow and see

Good luck every one. We all need some bfp!!!!

Louise392 · 14/01/2019 13:24

Afternoon Everyone!

I am 7dpo, first 3 days after ov had sickness and really bad headaches, they are still here but mild, had yellow tinged cm 4dpo.
On Saturday and yesterday, had really bad pain on my right side of pelvis and lots of cramping in lower abs then had a blob of white creamy tinged cm last night. Nipples are starting to become a bit tender this morning also,

Due Af on Saturday, done a one step test and negative, I know its early but cant help myself.
Just want to know now!!

Lammoshay · 14/01/2019 12:54

Feel sick today so tested an BFN :(

Thanks for your reply. I really hope it's an early sign!! I'm having some other strange signs like legs cramps at nights, I've had spotting last week. Ahhhhh

Pika88 · 13/01/2019 19:33

@hopeful31 I have read before that nipples can feel hot during early stages. And breast changes are often the first sign of pregnancy.
Got everything crossed for you Smile
