Hello ladies, I have had serious boobie pain this week and a sleet lower back. I am 9dpo today and dying to test but it’s way to early.

What is the wait so unbearable

Ellsbells112 · 04/12/2019 10:20

@FingersCrossedXXX the annoying thing is that for the past 2-3 cycles we have definitely done when I saw ewcm and that's supposed to be the prime time yet we haven't conceived. At one point I got a scan and saw for myself I was about to ovulate and we dtd for 5 days around the day and on the day lol

You dtd all round when you was ovulating right? Fingers crossed for you. Do you feel pregnant?

Lizziedu49 · 04/12/2019 10:02

*setting themselves up

Lizziedu49 · 04/12/2019 10:01

@FingersCrossedXXX you're only 9DPO aren't you? And IC aren't particularly sensitive. There's a high chance you haven't even implanted yet and I think it takes 24 hrs after that for it to show on a test. So please don't lose hope! It's a bit too early to test right now really. I think as time goes on ladies on here tend to test later and later as it's so upsetting to see a BFN but they realise they are setting themselves to feel like that as there's such a low likelihood of a BFP at that point. Plus period cramps and back pain are a good sign! So many girls say that they thought AF was coming but actually went on to get a BFP xx

FingersCrossedXXX · 04/12/2019 09:50

@Lizziedu49 I did take another cheap test this morning and it was a BFN, not even a hint of a line. App says period is due Monday but I think Sunday as think I ovulated a day earlier. However it's my first month tracking and I'm already on CD32 and not sure on my normal cycle lengths so could be any day now I guess. Last night while watching TV, I had period type cramps and back ache very briefly, exactly how it feels when I'm about to come on so went to check but coast is all clear at the moment. Not hopeful at all now though as thought there would be at least a faint line by now.

Anymore symptoms on your end?

@Ellsbells112 it's so hard to know but sounds like you DTD enough to hopefully catch it either way?

Ellsbells112 · 04/12/2019 08:55

@Lizziedu49 spotting sounds promising!

@anny27 what cycle day are you? X

@Robbo93 how are you?

@Laur89 @Gems7 you guys okay?

I'm a bit baffled, I had ewcm Saturday and Sunday along with ovulation pains, Sunday morning peak ovulation test so thought I would ovulate Monday latest right? Monday I was dry all day then suddenly like water wet on the evening, we dtd anyway then yesterday still quite wet and I had ewcm in the evening? I'm kind of annoyed because I thought I hit the timing perfectly, do you guys think I actually ovulated yesterday then? 🙄 My cervix was still high yesterday but medium hard. Guessing game is a killer but the opk doesn't lie right?

Lizziedu49 · 04/12/2019 06:36

@Anny27 I don't want to test as I don't want to see a negative result. I was thinking tomorrow but now I'm thinking maybe I'll wait until sat when af is due...

@FingersCrossedXXX you're testing today aren't you?

Anny27 · 03/12/2019 12:53

@Lizziedu49 I was 11 and a half weeks but it was missed miscarriage so baby was a bit smaller. And no, we conceived on our 3rd/4th month (first month we missed ovulation!) so not too long. Hoping its quick next time as well 🤞

Thata exciting :) when do you think you will test? Xx

Lizziedu49 · 03/12/2019 12:48

@Anny27 how far along were you when you miscarried if you don't mind me asking? Was it your first month of TTC?

I wanted to start TTC last month but missed ovulation but it gave me a chance to understand it all. So this month have been using OPKs and BBT and I'm now 9DPO. Just had the most minute amount of spotting when I went to the loo. Hopefully a good sign!

Anny27 · 03/12/2019 12:15

@Lizziedu49 this I still the miscarriage cycle so have NO idea where I am at the moment haha. Had the surgery on friday 15th November so nearly 3 weeks but still getting positive pregnancy tests so will wait for that to turn negative, wait for my period and then try again probably in new year :D

How about you?

Lizziedu49 · 03/12/2019 10:50

@Anny27 I'm sorry to hear you went through the ordeal of a mc 😞
Where are you in your cycle now?

Anny27 · 03/12/2019 08:27

@Lizziedu49 I like temping as well :) when j was pregnant (ended in mc) it made me prompt to test as at 12dpo my temps were increasing when usually they would be starting to decrease ag that point

@Robbo93 good plan :D

Robbo93 · 03/12/2019 06:55

Morning ladies, CD12 for me and I got a flashing smiley on the OPK.
DTD last night with preseed so hoping that will be okay til tomorrow as no chance I'm getting it from DH tonight lol

Lizziedu49 · 02/12/2019 20:04

@FingersCrossedXXX it's a triphasic chart if you're pregnant. So the first phase before ov is regular temp and then it dips for a day before ov and then for the 2nd phase goes higher than it was in the 1st. Then can dip for implantation and the theory is that if it then goes even higher than it ever was you could be pregnant! If you're not pregnant your temperature drops before AF. I quite like temping

FingersCrossedXXX · 02/12/2019 19:30

@Lizziedu49 Good signs! It's so hard not too symptom spot. So do they say your temp will drop if you are pregnant? I'm new to TTC and not taken temps before.

I've had a quite a bad headache all day and although it's probably not that unusual for me, I'm thinking could this be a sign?!

Lizziedu49 · 02/12/2019 17:24

So update ladies! I have started symptom spotting today 😂 7DPO, temperature dip, bit nauseas, EWCM and cramping! I had been so good up until now at not symptom spotting 🙈

JEMMA18 · 02/12/2019 12:32

@Robbo93 oh we can symptom spotting together lol. 🙈

FingersCrossedXXX · 02/12/2019 08:40

@Lizziedu49 Ooh that's promising and the spa day sounds fun. Look out for any spotting today!

I caved and took one this morning, knowing that even if I was it'd be too early and nearly impossible for it to show, didn't stop me though. Will most likely try again on Wednesday, but in not due on until Sunday so could still be too early. I really don't think I'll be lucky enough to catch the first time though.

Lizziedu49 · 02/12/2019 06:41

@FingersCrossedXXX well I've had a massive temp dip this morning so hopefully that's implantation... 7 DPO so it's possible. Won't get my hopes up though. I'm going to test on Thursday as I have a spa day with the girls and would like to know if I need to avoid major heat. That's the day before AF is due anyway so I reckon a FRER.

How about you?

FingersCrossedXXX · 01/12/2019 21:16

@Lizziedu49 I've had a few twinges here and there but think I got them before ovulation as well so most likely nothing.

When are you going to test?

Lizziedu49 · 01/12/2019 19:42

Same day as you @FingersCrossedXXX no symptoms yet either!

FingersCrossedXXX · 01/12/2019 18:38

Hey ladies!

Hope you've all had a good weekend.

I'm 6 or 7dpo today (think 7 but app is saying 6). Absolutely no symptoms to report Sad

Anyone else on the 2ww had any symptoms yet?

Ellsbells112 · 01/12/2019 16:55

@Robbo93 thanks chick xx

Robbo93 · 01/12/2019 15:45

@JEMMA18 same CD as me :)

@Ellsbells112 I'd say if you've got your static you'll ovulate either today or tomorrow, so yesterday/today/tomorrow could be peak times to DTD if you haven't already x

JEMMA18 · 01/12/2019 12:02

Hey ladies, I've been keeping updated on here but not had much to report myself. AF arrived after all the fuss but I'm on CD10 now and I feel close to OV so heres hoping to a Christmas present of a BFP this month. Sending you all baby dust 😊
