TWW!!!

@Carysmatic I was wrong about the positive opk, since the positive opk on Sunday they have stayed that dark. So I think the one I took Sunday afternoon was faulty somehow.
So yeah, ovulation may have been or may be on it's way very soon, I no longer know!
Your symptoms sound promising!
@Lilimum7 how are you 10dpo?

@MrsC89 @Lilimum7

Hey ladies, how are you all getting on? I've just finished two night shifts and I feel way more shattered than normal. I do a lot of night shifts but this is definitely extra exhaustion. Last night I actually felt really ill, really light headed, faint and super tired, everything was an effort. The last time I remember feeling this was when I had the implant fitted, I had so many side effect including all the symptoms above, it was all just my hormones all being off balance that made me feel that way. How I felt last night felt exactly like that...could mean something? I'm 11DPO CD27 so AF due Thursday. Any news for you guys?

@Carysmatic I want to say 14 dpo but realistically it'll be when I cave again lol

@Lilimum7 we're not out until AF arrives! My boobs have been very sore this evening, could literally be AF or pg! I honestly couldn't tell you right now. I'm not going to test until thurs/fri next week unless AF already arrived! I'm on night shifts tonight and tomorrow night so hopefully that'll distract me a bit as I'll either be working or frigging shattered and fast asleep! When do you think you'll next test? X

@Carysmatic I'm also 8dpo and I tested too bfn really bummed now x

@MrsC89 oh that's awesome! It's good to have a clear day for ovulation. Means you can really make sure you're DTD at the right time! I've been alright, my symptoms are more pointing at AF than anything else. Though I know people say that AF symptoms are so similar to early pregnancy so it's hard to say for sure. I feel soooo bloated tonight. I POAS yesterday and got a BFN which is no surprise really as I was only 8dpo, 9dpo today. It's still early days. Only difference is I'm sure my AF symptoms don't normally start this early I don't think.

@Carysmatic how are you doing today?

I think I managed to get my LH surge on the opk's.
Test from this morning around 11ish had 2 clear lines on it, then test around 5pm nothing but the control line.
I'm weirdly quite excited that I managed to see it!

So cramping really bad today, kinda like when AF arrives and feeling really sick. Also like when AF arrives. I'm on several apps and they all tell me AF is due different days. One says next Saturday, one says Friday and one says Thursday. If I'm due Saturday it would be too early to test with a FRER, but if I'm due Thursday then that in 5 days time and FRER can pick up 6 days before AF due. Do I test or do I wait? This is the first time I've been tempted this month 8dpo today

@Lilimum7 Really going to try and hold off on testing to avoid a potential false bfn as that would just really bum me out. I'll maybe test day before AF, my symptoms for AF are really obvious so really I'll be able to tell a few days before if it's coming. I've got a few frer tests so I could test sooner but I don't know if I can bring myself to yet. I'm 7-8 DPO so little early yet.

I had a 3hour nap today!! I never nap in the day but I was shattered, shut my eyes and woke up 3hours later, really dazed and confused. Really weird!

@Carysmatic it's all sounding good hun when do you test

I had such a good nights sleep last night yet today I feel exhausted, can hardly keep my eyes open, feel really light headed and just strange. I've heard that you can feel like this in early pregnancy, maybe this is another sign. Or maybe I'm just tired 😂

Thanks @Lilimum7 and @MrsC89 I think it's positive sign but who knows it could all just be AF rearing her ugly head! So difficult not to get hopes up but I am still feeling pretty good about this month! My colleague at work is an ex-midwife and she's the only one I've told about is TTC and she's so excited and keeps checking in with me. She's convinced I'll fall really easily! Who knows!

@Lilimum7 thanks, that does look like a really useful app! I am floating between clue and my tracker they both have very different days predicted as ovulation day, hence the opks until I have more of an idea when it is. Hoping to have a more normal length cycle this month!

@MrsC89 hi I'm good thanks 5/6 dpo now so symptom spotting like mad sadly nothing to report yet.

I use FF app for temping and premom app for opks it has a scanner on the premom app that reads your opk strips for you and tells you if it low, high or peak and even plots a little graph so you can see the LH rise it great. I've included some pics so you can see what I mean

@Carysmatic that is all sounding promising!

@Lilimum7 how are you doing today?

@Luckylola12 enjoy your holiday, relax and enjoy yourself!

I took another opk today, control line still as faint but I could see a faint second line again, I properly inspected it before using so I am more sure that it was a faint little line today 🤣

@Carysmatic those symptoms sound promising hun. Fx for us. Do you test early if so what dpo do you test and do you use frer's if so try savers answer test its identical to frer but half the price, it even as sensitive in fact I found it picked up hcg before a frer did and it was clearer too

Hey @Luckylola12 best of luck for this cycle! Enjoy your holiday and try and relax and enjoy time with your DH! And DTD loads! 😂 xxx

@Lilimum7 6dpo today, lots of cramping in lower abdo and kinda feeling cramps, twinges in vagina but that was more yesterday morning. I also had a bit of nausea yesterday morning. But I just feel a bit different, feeling very calm about it all at the moment and very positive about this cycle.

Hi ladies. Well according to FF app I'm now 5dpo I don't have any symptoms other than creamy cm which has usually dryed up by now. I have got a really sore throat, so I'm wondering if maybe that is what has given me my temp shift not ovulation (why is this ttc thing not just easy)

Where are you ladies at?

@MrsC89 let me know how you get on.

I'm still getting crampy feelings in my lower abdomen. I'm hoping it's a good sign. I feel really different this cycle, really positive about it.

@Carysmatic I will carry on testing daily, I'm on cd12 with the long cycle last month I'm just going to carry on testing everyday now.

Wow that is faint, think I see something though, keep testing daily and it'll prove get darker the closer to o day you get. What cycle day are you on? Xx

See how faint it is!

@MrsC89 did you get a picture?
