Hey guys decided to make an end of August bus as there is already an August bus and by the time we get to the middle of aug we will need a new one anyway and it will keep us all around the same time in our cycles.

My stats
TTC no 2
Cycle 7
CD 1
AF/BFP due 25th August
Age 29(30 in 10 days 🙈)

@mrssunshinexxx @Lauralozzle I'm only 3DPO and I'm convinced I'm out already bit of backache by my tailbone boobs hurting but it's weird it's like an ache on and off. I feel like my body is aching everywhere too and so tired! I couldn't be getting PMS this early but then again too early for pregnancy symptoms. I'm trying everything to take my mind off it. Will it ever be fri at 5.30 when I'm not in work I don't even think about it 🤦🏻‍♀️

Congratulations @ellarosee

My nipples are still a bit sore to touch, I’ll add that the list of post ovulation symptoms.

Argh, I hate the 2WW - only 2dpo and it feels like it’s dragging already!

mrssunshinexxx · 15/08/2019 13:34

I should add I am not drinking anymore than usual even though I feel thirsty but I am weeing a lot more which isn't symptom spotting it's a fact so if I aren't pregnant then my body is being v cruel :( x

Hi guys,
My stats:
Trying for the 1st baby
TTC - 3rd
DPO 13
Af due Sat 17th
And a BFN this morning and lunchtime :(

Can I still have a BFP after BFN today? Some success stories here that may give me some positivity back?

Loosing hope here,

MrsD0147 · 15/08/2019 12:51

@ellarosee That really confirms it Congratulations and yes stay here so we can all hear about your ongoing symptoms. Smile

Well this confirms it, but still super early!

@Sophieb15 @flissity I had quite a few symptoms some which were normal and some were a bit strange. The most noticeable one was the bloating because I do suffer with bloating but this was severe and made me look about 4 months pregnant! It lasted for 5 days but it's gone down now. I also had the usual cramping and backache which I just put down to AF being due.. that's still ongoing now. I also had constipation and then spells of the complete opposite 🙈 I had tingly nipples around 4dpo which faded away and right now my boobs slightly ache at the sides but it's not terribly noticeable like I thought it would be. I also had a couple of dizzy spells that lasted about a minute and I needed to pee a lot the past 4 days. Within myself I feel exactly the same, I haven't been moody but I have been watching Emma Willis delivering babies and crying through every episode so maybe I'm more emotional, I'm not sure? Everyone's symptoms are different but I assumed cramps meant AF was on the way so it's good to know some of you may still be in with a chance 🤞🏻

We really made an effort with SMEP this month and I did opks to check when I was ovulating. I didn't keep my legs up after DTD because I always need a wee straight after 😂 I took grapefruit juice every day and DH took pomegranate juice and that's all I can really think of that we did differently.

I hope you don't mind me staying on here a bit longer as I don't really feel like I'm pregnant yet, I'm not sure when it will sink in. I'd love to stay and see you all get your bfps x

End of August bus

@Tamalama best way is to put one leg up on toilet seat and just put one finger up. It should be either medium or low and have blood around it if AF is coming. Last month I wiped and had a bit of pink on the sat evening 12 DPO checked cervix and blood around it AF came the next morning. Let me know how you get on. Hopefully only CM around Cervix !!!!!!

OP posts:
Tamalama · 15/08/2019 12:17

I've not had any more pink since I wiped earlier on. I am extremely constipated at the moment too.

@MrsD0147 fingers crossed it's implantation bleeding!

@Sophieb15 how do you check your cervix? I'm so freaked out by checking! 🙈

Sophieb15 · 15/08/2019 12:00

@MrsD0147 You could check your cervix and see if there blood there if there isn't it could well be implantation bleeding which I really hope it is Smile

mrssunshinexxx · 15/08/2019 11:52

@MrsD0147 you aren't crazy at all I did think it was odd that you came on 4 days early ..

MrsD0147 · 15/08/2019 11:43

Don't know why i used the word crazy so many times Grin

MrsD0147 · 15/08/2019 11:43

Ok so you are all going to think i am crazy for getting my hopes up but obv when i woke up this morning I noticed AF had come as i had bled slightly in the night, put a towel on etc but there hasn't been anything at all since. Could this be implantation or am i crazy?! I am 11 DPO. I know i shouldn't get hopes up but usually once AF starts then it starts properly if you know what i mean?
Am i crazy?

mrssunshinexxx · 15/08/2019 11:34

@Sophieb15 yes xx

Sophieb15 · 15/08/2019 11:20

@mrssunshinexxx You will be 15DPO then won't you?

@Tamalama I hope it's not AF and it's Implantation xxx

Tamalama · 15/08/2019 11:00

Well I've just been to the loo and when I wiped I'm sure I saw the slighted hint of pink on the tissue paper...

flissity · 15/08/2019 10:49

@ellarosee I bet you are sooo happy Grin

Did you have any emotional changes? For example if you usually get Pmt moodiness, have you had this or just not at all this cycle?

Also did you stay laid down after dtd? Blush

mrssunshinexxx · 15/08/2019 10:46

@Sophieb15 I'm getting ahead of myself but if af hasn't arrived by next Saturday I'm gunna text I think if I was pregnant it would show by then x

@Lauralozzle It's really weird for me to have sore boobs already Normally don't get them until around 6/7 DPO maybe I ovulated earlier I doubt it though I'm not looking into it too much either but It's nice to talk about symptoms on her as we are all in the same boat.

@mrssunshinexxx Oh I hope that's a good sign for you. Your nearly halfway there already Smile

@Tamalama I always do what your doing too once I get AF symptoms I count myself out so I'm not too disappointed when she does arrive. I'm really hoping we have a lot of BFP's on here this month.

@ellarosee I see the line Try wait until FMU in the morning to take your FRER it should be a stronger line. Congrats Smile Was bloating and cramping your only symptoms? What DPO did they start? Might help the rest of us with our symptoms spotting Wink

ellarosee · 15/08/2019 10:23

Thank you so much @MrsD0147 and I'm really sorry to hear about AF. Your time will come and it will be so special when it does!

I'm quite a worrier so I'm not going to get too excited just yet as it's still so early. I'm actually scared to tell DH in case anything happens.

I always like to hear other peoples experience so for anyone who might be interested - we tried SMEP properly this month so I really recommend it to everyone, I also did OPKs and took grapefruit juice everyday to help with EWCM. I'm 12dpo and have been experiencing bad bloating and loads of cramping which really felt like AF was on her way so don't think you're out if you start feeling cramps x

MrsD0147 · 15/08/2019 10:16

@ellarosee can definitely see a line and i can never see them on pics people upload! Exciting times for you xxx

ellarosee · 15/08/2019 10:08

@mrssunshinexxx @Tamalama thank you. Yes I'll update you later on 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you both!

Something20 · 15/08/2019 10:07

Thanks @Fredthespider I'll give it a google and see what I can find 😊

That's a good length of time to wait to test, if you're gunna get a BFP it's gunna show! 😃

mrssunshinexxx · 15/08/2019 10:03

@ellarosee yes I can see a line how exciting update us when you have taken another x

@Tamalama I've never had this symptom before and after googling it does say it's a sign because you need to produce more fluids x
