Hi, just starting my 2 week wait and wondering who else is too and how you stop your mind from going crazy and not thinking of anything else... 😬😅😂

@Skygirl1983 11dpo is still early from everything I've read so don't worry too much yet! I'm also 11dpo and trying to hold out until Thursday when AF is due... the chance of a positive is much higher then/I don't want to get upset by only seeing one line. Most of my symptoms seem to have faded if I'm honest but I think it's impossible to tell for sure until you actually get your period or a BFP. I'll test with a FRER on Thursday and see. Fingers crossed for you and @Emae26 xx

Skygirl1983 · 30/09/2019 17:52

I'm not testing now unless my AF doesn't turn up. I'm also so tempted to have a gin tonight!! But will refrain. I'm only 11dpo according to my tracker and if my spotting at the weekend was implantation would it even show yet? I'm probably clutching at straws here but I'm gutted.

@Skygirl1983 so sorry to hear that, I think I'm in the same boat but we can't lose hope until AF shows!

I picked up a FRER, did it when I got home and nothing, zilch, I have near enough 2/3 days max until my AF. I think it's safe to say I'm out :(

@Skygirl1983 that horoscope thing is pretty amazing! I resorted to asking questions with the pendulum thing that was my nans and it said yes when I asked if I was pregnant, it's only for fun but it was comforting. I've had quite bad mood swings, my fiancé has been quite taken back because it's so not like me, ever! I've had so many symptoms that I don't usual get...

Also, how have your moods been?? According to the hubby I have been a nightmare! A lot worse than usual! I snapped at him on the bus the other day and had to apologise as I felt rotten. That's far too early for my usual PMT to set in!

Skygirl1983 · 30/09/2019 14:57

Really hard! I have even resorted to reading my horoscopes! One of then actually said there could be news about a baby this month!! Also, my phone wont let me tag anyone which is annoying!!

@Skygirl1983 ooh okay, I might get some of them, thank you! It's so hard isn't it?!

I looked at the online reviews and loads of people said about false positives a lot! The ones in B&M are the clear and simple but do say they can detect from 4 days before. So maybe still too early for them. Its driving me mad as if I put all my symptoms together I'd be convinced I was pregnant too!

Emae26 · 30/09/2019 14:38

@Skygirl1983 I'm not sure about the B&M tests but I've not heard anything bad about FRER, what have you heard? It's absolutely driving me mad, I've not felt the way I've felt this cycle, ever! It's so confusing and cruel!
@LillianFullStop I know but it's really disheartening... I was so convinced I'd get a positive because I've never felt the way I have recently. Surely if I was pregnant it would show now, right?
@summertimehere I think I may be able to see something but its very very faint

OP posts:
Skygirl1983 · 30/09/2019 14:34

I can see more of a line on yours than I have seen on any of mine! I think I'm going to get a FRER on the way home

summertimehere · 30/09/2019 14:25

Can big crazy head join in? 😂😂 8dpo desperate to be pregnant so praying this has something but could be evap or camera trick

2 week wait...
LillianFullStop · 30/09/2019 14:07

@Emae26 it's not over til AF arrives!

Skygirl1983 · 30/09/2019 13:58

I only have cheap B&M tests too. I thought they where supposed to be sensitive and heard loads of bad things about FRER. What do others think? Is it worth getting a FRER as I feel the same as you!! Super cruel tricks if I get my AF!! We are literally both in the exact same position right now!!

@Hollielouise @Skygirl1983 I've only got cheap tests and AF is due Thursday but if it doesn't show I will do a cheap test and go from there! Kinda given up hope now... is it possible to get a negative on a FRER this close to AF and still be pregnant? I've had so many symptoms, if I'm not my body has been playing a cruel trick on me...

@AussieJoc I'm 35 and TTC. I have other children but my last pregnancy was over 12 years ago!! This month has been very different. My AF is due Thursday and had spotting this weekend and a sore back all week!

@Emae26 @Hollielouise I'm not testing now until Thursday unless anything makes an appearance before!

MrsLEB · 30/09/2019 13:36

@AussieJoc I'm sitting here with a pelvic burning sensation around the front now just above my pubic bone - is that where yours is? I've tested today with an IC around 9/10dpo and it's BFN. Admittedly it wasn't FMU as I tested as soon as they arrived in the post 😂. Do you think I still have a chance if testing with FMU tomorrow at 10/11dpo? I'm feeling extremely tired today but not in a bad way just that I could drift off into the nicest nap - but I can't cause I'm working 😫

Hollielouise · 30/09/2019 13:20

@Emae26 you've still got time! I'm 11dpo and testing on Thursday if you want to hold out three more days!

AussieJoc · 30/09/2019 13:12

Can I join in?. AF due Saturday . Today is 13 dpo. Got brown spotting and sore boobs. Been trying for 9 months now but I'm older than most of you. Anyone else had a pelvic burning sensation?

AliSxo · 30/09/2019 12:43

@Hayleylou89 came home and tested at lunch time!! Line is back to as dark as it was yesterday xxx

AtouchofFrenchy · 30/09/2019 12:30

Hello ladies,

I would love to join the thread as it is soo long to wait and it is getting me nuts..!

I am 9 days DPO and so far no symptom at all... I am wondering if some of you had 0 symptom at this stage and finally find out they were pregnant?

First time I tried to conceive was March and became pregnant straight away with symptom at 6 days DPO (lot of watery discharge, headache, tend breast, metallic taste in mouth, weeing more often..). Miscarriage at 7 weeks, since then I have tried 3 months and now in my 4 cycle trying..

It is becoming an obsession that I cant take out of my mind. And even worse when friends and family tell you that more you think about it less it will happen.. it makes me stress that I will never manage to relax and get pregnant again.. wondering if some of you were constantly thinking about it and managed to get pregnant?

Thanks a lot ladies for all your support and huge congrats for the ones with BFP!! xx

emojisarentwords · 30/09/2019 11:55

Supposed to get AF today and got a BFN on an ic yesterday, getting blood when I wipe and basically feeling all AF symptoms. Think I'm out! Congratulations to all those with bfp's this month and good luck to those yet to test xxxx

Bobbielove321 · 30/09/2019 11:01

Has anyone been pregnant before and can tell me what is CM like two days after conception?

Please! 😁

Bobbielove321 · 30/09/2019 10:59

Hi can I join in please!

I am 2 days dpo, no symptoms at all.

I thought cm would increase? Or it is too early?
