@MrsC89 I am 8dpo today. It's a weird feeling to feel that way all the time. It's mostly during morning/early afternoon and then gets better during the evening.

mrsio · 19/11/2019 16:23

@Louu99 it's probably not high priority for them coz it's what they deal with all day every day. But surely they understand how stressful it is for the women it's happening to!

nt1992 · 19/11/2019 16:21

Afternoon ladies! Just finished work absolutely exhausted I've not stopped! How is everyone?

Louu99 · 19/11/2019 16:08

So frustrating! I rang and complained and someone is ringing me back apparently.

I know it's not high priority but it's horrific not knowing x

mrsio · 19/11/2019 15:46

You're all making me feel so fat with all your exercise and weight training! I used to go to the gym A LOT and it has totally gone out of the window since having my little boy. My biggest concern in this 2WW has been to stop him from doing the river dance on my stomach! He's also all elbows and knees when he's climbing all over me!

@Louu99 don't worry about swearing. I'd be saying worse than that of it was me! Can't believe they're gonna make you wait til tomorrow!

Being at work has defo been a good distraction today. My day has gone pretty quick. But now everyone has started going home and I'm stuck here til 5 so it's gonna drag now. I'll defo be doing another test when I get home

CiaraJ01 · 19/11/2019 15:26

@Louu99 that's is terrible!! Surely they know you're going to be stressing!! Go get a bath... with more chocolate and keep swearing till feeling slightly relaxed!!

CiaraJ01 · 19/11/2019 15:24

@Skygirl1983 that is really interesting!! So almost all reccomend afternoon/evening?! Wonder why that is..

SO AF still havent arrived... I have FRER on same day delivery coming this evening... and 25 one step tests coming tomorrow 😂😂🙈

Bunny2006 · 19/11/2019 15:24

I'm sorry you're having so much trouble @Louu99, not surprised you're swearing that is a joke!!

I am not sure I ovulated this month, first month tracking BBT. Recording it on two different apps, Flo kept changing my ovulation date but has fine settled on CD23 out of my usual 26 day cycle?! Fertility Friend says ovulated on CD18 which would make more sense. AF 3 days late, CD30 for me but negative FRER with FMU today. :(

Skygirl1983 · 19/11/2019 15:22

@sh84 I'll be 10dpo on Friday so will probably try and do the evening. I have more time in the evening to faff about with testing. Mornings are always so rushed.

@Lou99 that's awful!!! Surely they could have told you yesterday they were going to be closed!! I'd be swearing a lot too!!!! Have you been able to relax much today?

Louu99 · 19/11/2019 15:17

I am so angry! I rang the early pregnancy unit and was put through to the birthing centre because the early pregnancy unit IS FUCKING CLOSED!!!

Sorry For the swearing, but why say they'll call today to let me know if they're closed?! I have to wait now until tomorrow morning to ring and speak to the sister

sh84 · 19/11/2019 15:15

@Skygirl1983 meh, it’s not looking promising for me then, I’ve always used FMU. What dpo will you be Friday

MrsC89 · 19/11/2019 15:11

@mellymoo86 I feel wet all the time too, I feel like it's too early for me to have any symptoms, so I'm just driving myself mad. I'm 5dpo, how about you?

OP posts:
Skygirl1983 · 19/11/2019 14:54

@sh84 I had an article on a previous thread about testing in evening compared to the morning and it said chances of getting a positive in evening were higher. I'll try and find it. I'm going to start from Friday I think.

Yes! I keep learning new things too!

My best friend and OH must be so sick of listening to me by now! Thanks ladies.

I’ve heard you can get an LH surge just before AF arrives just be cautious x

Louu99 · 19/11/2019 14:46

@Bella330 don't worry, I'll be symptom spotting in secret and posting about every little thing here 😂

Skygirl1983 · 19/11/2019 14:35

@Bella330 welcome. Feel free to symptom spot in here!! I promised myself I wouldn't this month and I'm now full blown spotting! Haha!

I'm on cycle 3. First month of using opk and preseed. Also keeping an eye on opk now even after OV as it can be used as an early indication of pregnancy but I'm also just getting more intrigued about my cycle the more I learn about it.

When is everybody planning on testing. I’m now 11dpo, I caved & did FRER yesterday totally on a whim, did it about 3pm after about 20 cups of tea & only did a wee about an hour before. At first glance looked negative but did the whole torch shining & I swear there’s the faintest of lines if it’s tilted the right way, got a very slight pink tinge to it. I know it’s prob wishful thinking but when I did a test last month a week after MC it was very negative not the slightest trace of anything & I would’ve thought there was more chance of some hcg being left a week after a MC than 10dpo using diluted afternoon urine, sounds logical right?? Holding off on testing now till end of the week & will use FMU

CiaraJ01 · 19/11/2019 14:23

@bella330 welcome!! I'm 13 dpo today with a BFN this morning but ok AF as yet. Cycle 2 TTC #1.

@Louu99 I love it!! I've always been quite strong but wasnt till I started with the PT and he really pushed me. I joined to lose weight but now I'm more interested in getting stronger. I find it soooo frustrating if I cant shift something that I've either done before or beaten my own PB 😂😂 I also love the looks on peoples faces when you can lift more than them 😂😂

mellymoo86 · 19/11/2019 14:22

@Skygirl1983 my cervix feels higher and firmish. Having watery/ cloudy cm, but have this wet feeling all the times but nothing in my underwear. No more brown discharge. It may just be the start of my AF and will be in full swing in a few days. Who knows!

Bella330 · 19/11/2019 14:21

Lou fingers crossed everything is okay and the little bean sticks.

Patience is definitely the key however mine is not existent at the minute. My OH thinks I’m crazy how I symptom spot everything, he’s just as bad feeling my boobs every morning as that’s usually the first sign for me.

Last month I was convinced it was my month... nipples were darker, randomly erect nipples too 🙈 and they were huge! AF showed up on time though.

Louu99 · 19/11/2019 14:08

@Bella330 patience is key! Coming from someone who wasn't very patient at all 😂

I suppose it's good to know what your body is doing and how different it feels at various times, but try not to get too carried away with it all, it makes it so much worse!

This is my first cycle and I had positive hcg bloods but now I'm bleeding quite heavily on and off so currently waiting to see if I'm still pregnant. If I'm not, next time I'll definitely just try and forget about it until my period is late, then test!

Good luck with everything 😘

Bella330 · 19/11/2019 13:55

Hi Ladies

Mind if I jump on board?

CD23 - 2 DPO

I usually ovulate CD16 but seemed to be really late this month! Usual cycle is 28- 30 days but I’m thinking it would probably put my cycle a little longer if I ovulated so late.

The 2WW is torture and I need someone to help me with the symptom spotting - OH always says just be patient and see what happens 🙄

How long have you all been TTC?

Louu99 · 19/11/2019 13:37

@Skygirl1983 they probably are definitely made for skirts! I love looking strong and muscular. I'm always the one to move things around the house and do all the heavy lifting, it's empowering! X

Skygirl1983 · 19/11/2019 13:28

@Louu99 I thought we had a star in our midst then! Lol. I used to see a PT until recently on the run up to my wedding and could leg press a ridiculous amount considering my short legs! My hubby says I have rugby player legs. They are definitely not made for skirts anyway!!
