2WW countdown, anyone want to obsess over symptoms?!

@cb22 it's so hard to not symptom spot isn't it? I feel like it's all in my head!

@Chez13 congratulations on your BFP!

@Bstansfield post a photo and we can see too!!

Fingers crossed for us all!

show us?! @Bstansfield

@Niffler1988 those symptoms do sound very promising! maybe take a test in a few days? itms so hard not to stress and overthink everything i did 😫

Dh has kindly reminded me that he is blue yellow color blind so may not be the best judge...

@Ameliasmummy12 sorry that should have said u** xx

@Ameliasmummy12 yeah kinda sunk in but still very surreal 🙂 feeling a bit emosh crampy and really really sore burning bbs 😐 really think i should get a first response or cb ? X

@smiletillyoumakeit I swear I've just got a bfp!!
Husband thinks otherwise but I'm sure I can see a line!!!

@Ameliasmummy12 Perhaps that is a symptom then! In the second week of my cycle (before ovulation) I was under a lot of stress, resulting in having a couple of panic attacks.. and then the gastro a few days after... so now wondering if actually all the stress has caused the delay in AF but not sure if that explains my pains etc... god im so over thinking this haha!

Hi everyone,

Hope you don't mind me joining in! First post on here and you all seem like a lovely supportive bunch!

So, this is our first time TTC and it's also our first cycle, so I'm completely new to this.

Here's where it gets tricky for me, last year my cycle was like clockwork, 27 days and AF was always on time. However, this year my cycle started as usual but then they have been all over the place, ovulating on day 10 to ovulating on day 30! So my cycle has been ranging from 23-42 days. I did however get a new job around this time and its quite stressful so I'm hoping I've settled back down now.

So we have been DTD every 2-4 days since I came off my period and going to carry on until AF comes next month. I'm due either at the weekend or middle of next week depending if my cycle has settled or not. Frustrating that I don't know for sure tbh.

So I'm really trying not to symptom spot and know I would be so lucky to conceive first time, however I do have some, so here goes.

I am so tired all the time but cannot sleep. Headaches. Nausea but hungry, and heavy full bbs. My bbs aren't sore but my friend pointed out how big they looked the other day. I went out at the weekend and didn't feel like drinking, very unlike me. I also had a dream that I got a BFP last night. I feel light headed. Moody. And I can smell everything!

I have an upset tummy but there has been a bug been going around so that's what I expect that is.

I think I'm reading too much into all these little twinges but this TWW is so intense!

Sorry for the massively long post, just wanted to give background.

Are headaches a pregnancy symptom? X

i know @Chez13 I still have a few days but im not expecting it to be this month now which is a good thing!

@Ameliasmummy12 thanks! Still no AF and cramps and boob pain on and off but really intense.. also had terrible headache all night (almost hungover feeling)... feel like totally over analysing but too nervous to test again as I'm convinced it will be BFN

Oh no @cb22 😩 like i said tho before not over till the witch arrives x

I tested today and got a BFN, i think im definitely out but can only try again next month!

@Bstansfield aww well I'm keeping everything crossed for you!!!x

@smiletillyoumakeit with ds got bfn at 8dpo, b faint p at 9dpo (like my husband was like nah no way that's a positive) and by 10dpo a definite line :) this time I'm 10dpo and still getting negatives, tomorrow if I don't get a bfp I'll be certain I'm out I think

@Bstansfield thank you!! :)
When did you get your bfp?xx

@smiletillyoumakeit I can't see a line BUT it's reaaalllllyyy hard to capture lines on camera so there very well could be one, especially as it's so early probably v faint, fingers crossed :) I did a FRER at 8dpo and not even a sniff of a line!

Hi ladies,

So I am now 7 days away from af & I woke this morning with a heavy, swollen feeling in my uterus.. same as I do when I'm either ovulating or coming on. Then throughout the day I've had stabbing pains come & go. I have a bit of yellow discharge in my underwear which is completely odourless (sorry tmi). I thought maybe my frer would be delivered today but it hasn't so I took a test strip instead, knowing full well nothing would show up on a 25miu test on 8dpo but hey ho. I think I can see something trying to come through but line eyes over here is getting her hopes up I think 😂xx

Hey Everyone, any room for another passenger on the crazy train?

TTC #1 for nearly 12 months but that includes an MMC back in Feb.

Cycle is normally 25/26 days and AF is due 9th October (I think) so I am only about two DPO. I don't normally believe in symptom spotting (esp. this early!) because I start imagining things but this month I've had a few odd things already -

1. Little crampy zappy feelings like the first time I was pregnant which also started really early
2. I had heartburn for two days which is very unusual
3. I had minor headaches - also very unusual
4. I have been soooo thirsty but not showing any signs of having a cold

However, after an initial spike, BBT is pretty low so it may be nothing.
I want to be able to enjoy it and get excited but I know I could end up very disappointed.

Thanks all and good luck!

@Ameliasmummy12 hey 2 days late is a defo a good sign 🤞🏼 x

@Bstansfield I got my bfp with my little boy 4 days before af was due!x

Hi! Can I join the obsessing please???

Cycle 1
Cd 31 of roughly 34
Dpo 10 (af usually arrives 13dpo)
Ttc number 2

Done cheapys the past 2 days and got 2 bfn

Don't feel super pregnant and only dtd the day before ovulation

But I'm getting the odd bit of nausea plus reasonable amount of creamy cm with a pretty soft cervix

Should I use a frer tomorrow? What's my chances of getting bfp?

As much as I want to be pregnant, if I'm not it means I can drink at this wedding this weekend sooooooo... I won't be devastated by a negative, but deffo need to know before weekend

Af expected Thursday
