Hi fellow ttc-ers.

I’m 9dpo on cycle 8 of ttc baby #2.

No real symptoms at all. A few cramps, I’m hungry and generally I’m just in an absolutely foul mood.

Anyone want to join me on route to test day at the end of the week?

Hey, I'm 10 dpo, due AF on Saturday. It's 3rd cycle but 1st time tracking properly and I've been driving myself mad noticing every little change in my body and convincing myself it's a pregnancy symptom! It's all too similar to PMS though so I don't think there's any way of really being able to tell.

Fingers crossed for you all! X

@May2311 we can be testing buddies I will test fri or sat I am due af on fri I am praying for it not to come

I m guilty of thinking I have symptoms but I think for most people they are in our head

@Chefwifelife definitely agree doesn't matter how long or short you've been tying we all just want a baby

Hi ladies

I'm also on cycle 8
And 8dpo!

Trying hard to not overthink things but its majorly on my mind! Mildly feeling optimistic though, no boob pain but I feel like they've doubled in size the last 2 days or so! Even OH pointed this out 😂👍

Will test saturday or Sunday, like you said all we need to do is get through this week! 🤷‍♀️

AF due next Monday, secretly hoping the sore boobs and cramping could be a pregnancy sign but think my mind is just playing tricks on me

Problem is: I don't think we normally pay that much attention unless we're trying to get pg so everything could be a symptom or could be normal... ?

With my first I can't remember getting any symptoms at all but I also wasn't ttc so maybe i just didn't notice?!

Hi!

I am 8dpo On cycle 3( on tracking properly) of TTC no 1.

Feeling a bit sick of it all this week- just want the weekend to come. I am noticing symptoms but just don’t feel confident they are pregnancy symptoms and just think I might be a bit off colour! How do you tell the difference?!

How normal is it to actually get symptoms before missed AF? Everyone on these threads seem to get loads!!

I am due AF Friday (12 day LP) and don’t usually test early( not tested yet as never made it to being late😂) although I feel this month it just seems harder to not test early but the fact that I have a shorter LP I doubt I will get a result early anyways!

Hey sofia when is af due? I don’t think it matters how long or short you’ve been ttc; it’s all relative to the fact that we all want to be pregnant whether that’s for the first, second, third etc time. I never used to think that I had symptoms of af so far before the witch arrives but I definitely do!

about 10dpo here and convinced it hasn't happened this month, feel like i've got the worst case of PMT ever (mood swings, terrible skin etc).. only month 1 of trying so no excuse to feel disheartened yet.. but can feel AF on the way and its rubbish

Keeping my fingers crossed for both of you xx

Lol worst case Friday. No, no real symptoms except I’m just being a Mardy cow for no reason. Don’t normally get pms so new for me if not preggo.
