I'm 4dpo, fairly sure this month isn't going to work but wondered if anyone wanted to join me in the crazy 2ww?

@kell2116 thanks for asking him. BFN for me this morning on an IC at 10dpo. Still in till AF shows up though I suppose

Oh that's encouraging @LouH1981 and @MrsP4! I Googled the sh*t out of it when I got home but couldn't find any reference to that exact type of cramp so was a bit non-plussed. Here's hoping!

@whyhave how are you doing, OP?

LouH1981 · 21/03/2019 06:30

@kell2116 That’s what I had. I’d had brown discharge in the morning, then that afternoon it was just like gripping pain and pain in my lower back. It stopped me in my tracks. I don’t remember having it with either pregnancy before so I just put it down to my sandwich (!) Then I googled it and thought maybe it could be implantation. It was really weird. I knew it couldn’t be AF because I had 5/6 days before I was expecting it...fingers crossed xxx

MrsP4 · 21/03/2019 04:36

@kell2116 I know we're cycle twins this month but that's bizarre because I had the exact same thing a couple days ago! I woke up in the morning about half 8 and the minute I woke up I had this pain, and that's the only way to describe it that pain you get just before I was like oh god! It was out of the ordinary for me because I never ever go at that time 😂🙈 again probably me just clutching at straws and I probably just needed a big 💩 😂😂😂

Thanks@kell2116

It's so hard. You end up reading into everything. To be honest with my first 3 I had no symptoms whatsoever until I got a BFP

@whyhave really rooting for you and keeping everything crossed.

@MrsP4 yay for your DH's swimmers!

I feel like I need a waiting cake to help pass the time! Currently on 7DPO, sore nips, some twinges in abdomen, vivd dreams, blue veins everywhere and sleeping like a baby. One really striking thing happened yesterday afternoon though: was out for a walk with DH and suddenly got a very, very strong cramp – not like AF cramps but rather exactly the feeling when you're about to have diarrhoea (sorry, tmi). It passed after about 2 mins (thank Jesus), then came back after a couple of minutes but slightly less severe and again only lasted a short time. Went to the loo when got home 10 mins or so later, but all normal. I've never had that feeling before and not actually had diarrhoea. Clutching at straws here obvs but wondering if it could have been some implantation cramping?

MrsP4 · 20/03/2019 22:08

@whyhaveidonethis 😂😂😂 I've just realised what I said I meant waiting game! Too busy watching tele 🙈

@LouH1981 apart from loads of clear CM nothing to be honest. The line is still there on that first test so goodness knows. I'll test tomorrow night and see. My temps are still high so I'm still in for now.

@MrsP4 that's great news....not sure why you are waiting for cake though!! Lol!!

MrsP4 · 20/03/2019 21:36

How is everyone? DH got his sperm results back today and everything is perfect and normal and just as it should be so the waiting cake continues 😬

LouH1981 · 20/03/2019 19:29

@whyihaveidonethis I think you are right, it is still pretty early. Don’t lose heart, try again tomorrow. I could definitely see a line on your other test.
How are you feeling? Are you having any symptoms? xxx

I'm so tempted to go to the chemist's and buy a FRER even though I have 2 coming on prime between 6 and 10pm today!! 😂

OP posts:
LouH1981 · 20/03/2019 08:21

The way I see it is a line is a line. There is no other reason for it to come up unless it has detected HCG. That’s still 2 positives!
I have a very good feeling about this! xxx

Freaking out here. I gave in to temptation and did an IC at 8dpo this evening. I have never had so much as a squinter on these before but there's a line. I've taken about 5 million pictures and it's hard to see in a picture but I think it's there!!! Can anyone else see this? I three the pee away before I noticed the line and so squeezed another wee out and the line is hardly noticeable on the second one but possibly still there. This is the best picture I could get can anyone see it? It is more pink in real life

4dpo...join me!!!

@kell2116 Yeah I know some doctors are really funny about it aren't they just by luck the doctor that I'd seen on that day was nice thank god, thank you still waiting for results but I will update when I do, really hope this is our month too haven't had any cramps or anything so far had heartburn yesterday but probably due to eating spicy food at lunch time obvs! 😂

I haven't got any tests at home so that's what happens if I have tests in I will do them and drive myself nuts so I just don't buy any and then I can't be tempted 😂🙈

kell2116 · 19/03/2019 11:29

I should say even though we've not been 'not trying' for over a year, I'm only counting this cycle as #5 because we only started seriously tracking and timing from then. And also I'm 38, which is prob why it's taking sooo loooong...

kell2116 · 19/03/2019 11:26

@MrsP4 I bow down to your self-restraint!!

I'm pleased for you that the docs are running tests after 6 mths – we had to wait till a year of nothing happening for them to do anything (but since then they've been v. helpful). I hope all the results come back clear as was the case for us, but 'unexplained infertility' is one ridiculous diagnosis!

Hopefully this will be the month for us both regardless. FX
