AF seems to be easing off now, gearing up for TTC again this month. Feeling really positive and hopeful 🤞🏻

Hi there, I'm new to the thread so bear with me!
On cycle #2 after a MC in Nov (not including the one straight after the MC). AF is due Tues or Weds, and after having my partner's friend to stay during most of the crucial week we only DTD once I'm not too hopeful, but inevitably it's on my mind! Last month I was a lot more crazy about it all and had tested about 4 times by now 🙄 so am being far better about it this month... until I woke up at 4am today! I've had a touch of sore boobs, nausea and period like cramps. Although last month I had every symptom under the sun so I'm not sure I can reply on anything my body tells me.
Question is how hopeful should I be? And are the cramps a good or bad sign?
Thanks all, wishing all the best to you all over the next few weeks x

Still keeping no my fingers crossed. I'm cd32 now. No sign of AF but BFN the other day on what I think was 12dpo. I could now be 16dpo but too nervous to test waiting a while for AF I think!cc

fabmaz · 31/01/2019 22:27

Fingers crossed for you @mammaF16!
Don't know why but I'm just not feeling it myself but I guess we will see x

mammaF16 · 31/01/2019 21:24

I’m so sorry it didn’t work out this month for you ladies. @fabmaz I’m the same waiting to test this weekend. Haven’t been feeling great and had vomited today so don’t know whether a good sign or not or even a sign at all! I know it’s early 😊

fabmaz · 31/01/2019 19:58

Aww I'm sorry af has turned up for you guys!!! Fingers crossed next month is your month! 🤞🤞🤞
I'm still holding out hope for the weekend xxx

lizzie198 · 31/01/2019 11:46

It's rubbish isn't it but we will get our months I'm sure and hopefully it will be next month with lots of bfp's. Baby dust all around xx

stitchwitch84 · 31/01/2019 08:45

@Igotthemheavyboobs @ale2992 I'm sorry guys! She turned up this morning for me too 😫 but I have done the emotional thing over the last couple of days so going to look forward to Feb now. Should be ovulating on Valentines, apparently 😆🥰

Igotthemheavyboobs · 31/01/2019 08:03

@ale2992 with you there!

I'm going to focus on losing some weight and making myself feel better this month. Might get some lovely new face wash stuff and focus on myself instead of just ttc ttc ttc.

ale2992 · 30/01/2019 23:08

@Igotthemheavyboobs same! 😩 she needs to realise she isn't wanted here!!!
This month had better be our month!

Igotthemheavyboobs · 30/01/2019 22:34

Feeling particularly emotional at the moment, had a full on cry this evening to dp. Haha new month, new chance I guess!

Igotthemheavyboobs · 30/01/2019 22:33

Totally out now, af showed up! Stupid bitch, why doesn't she realise she is the one at the party that no one invited!

Baby dust to everyone else!!

ale2992 · 30/01/2019 20:43

I like the clear blue early ones

stitchwitch84 · 30/01/2019 16:12

Out of interest, does anyone have any tips on which are the best cheap preg tests, please? I've got some Tesco ones but have read elsewhere that they aren't too reliable - I may be wrong, of course, but I'd welcome any tips or insights!

Aria2015 · 30/01/2019 11:22

@lizzie198 according to my app, my February ovulation day is Valentine's Day lol!

lizzie198 · 30/01/2019 09:16

@ale2992 and @Aria2015 I'm joining your club.

I think af has arrived started spotting.

Wasn't due til Saturday according to app but staying positive and looking at it as got a definitive answer for this month and can look forward to having fun in the romantic month of February 😊

Aria2015 · 30/01/2019 09:09

I'm spotting too - due on tomorrow. I'm disappointed too but I did have a gut feeling that this month wasn't going to happen so not surprised. I had forgotten how much ttc messes with my head. It's just on my mind all the time!

ale2992 · 30/01/2019 07:34

Pretty sure AF is showing up this morning. Spotting has increased, still not bleeding but I think it's definitely in its way.
I'm ok though, disappointed obviously but I know we weren't 100% trying this month and that it's better to have a period after miscarriage.

OP posts:
fabmaz · 29/01/2019 21:26

Completely agree!!! So annoying that all symptoms could also just be related to AF! Wish there were definite symptoms so we at least had a better idea than all this waiting

mammaF16 · 29/01/2019 21:25

@stitchwitch84 thanks for your message. They are so similar and is hard to decide but I do think it is a little early for me to get PMS cramps, but who knows.

Going to try and wait and maybe do a frer on Friday, but still maybe too early

stitchwitch84 · 29/01/2019 21:13

@mammaF16 it's so unfair that early pregnancy and PMS have such similar symptoms! Do hold back from testing, though - I never do and it's always such a disappointment Grin

mammaF16 · 29/01/2019 20:54

I am only 8-9dpo and really wanting to test but just know it is too early. Getting cramping the past day or so similar to before AF but not due for another week don't know if a good or bad sign, also sore back and headaches and quite tired but this could just be the norm stuff.

Fingers crossed for you all and the BFPs!

stitchwitch84 · 29/01/2019 20:23

@Ambs81 Congratulations, that's wonderful! Here's hoping she stays well away…

Argh I cannot endure this waiting any longer!!! Due on Saturday, want to test now but mustn't, going to try to wait till Friday at the earliest (but I expect I will test on Thursday! FRER though so not entirely ridiculous)

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 19:35

@Ambs81 congrats!!
