Hi ladies, how are you all?

Haven’t tested since, mainly because I only brought one test with me stupidly 🙄 (on our honeymoon) so will test Wednesday morning when we get home. My boobs feel really sore although they do feel this way before AF comes anyway so trying not to look into it too much. Have had a few small cramps today too

Sadie95 · 30/12/2019 12:45

@mariarosa1991 I had my contraception out and didn't have a period before I fell pregnant with my DD so I tested out of pure curiosity

@Sadie95 I'll try :)

Same, with DS I didn't really have any symptoms other than randomly napping during the day, but that was only a couple of times before I missed my period. Oh well I suppose only time will tell, 3 days to go! X

@mariarosa1991 I'm the same! But I didn't feel any different when I fell pregnant with my daughter so you never know, don't loose hope

@Sadie95 same lol! Argh I haven't had any symptoms other than feeling slightly more tired than usual, but this happens when AF is on the way too so I just don't know! I do feel like this month defo isn't my month 😖

Does anyone else check their cervix as an indicator?

@tubbyswife I am the same with headaches and the pulling feeling but again I can't help but think is it just in my head x

tubbyswife · 29/12/2019 16:47

I have a terrible headache today and I think that I have that I have that pull in my stomach, but tbh I don't know if it is real or not or whether it's all in my head! My lab is also sleeping with her head over my tummy so naturally I am also reading way to much into that! Hmm

WednesdaySpinner · 29/12/2019 13:09

I don't feel like I have any at all and so I'm not feeling positive for this month. I think (despite what I said yesterday!) that I'm going to test on NYE, it will be 4 days before AF is due and so should give me a clearer idea. Have you had any?

Sadie95 · 29/12/2019 09:58

Does anyone feel like they have any symptoms? Or are you trying not to symptom spot?

Yes definitely a glutton for punishment!

That's quite a big gap between potential dates, hopefully we get our bfps next week! X

@mariarosa1991 Its so hard not to be a glutton for punishment though isnt it?! Confused I have two apps on the go, and one says AF is due on the 3rd, the other says the 9th. I am sure the 3rd is wrong as I am pretty sure I only ovulated around boxing day/27th but I will start testing on Weds too (if not earlier) and then feel the same irritation at myself as you. Can't help it though, it's like I'm a crazed addict! Good luck x

Urge!!! I don't know why but I caved and tested this morning at 6dpo, of course it was a bfn and now I'm sooo irritated with myself for testing so early. I love to punish myself I suppose!

@Sadie95 I will be about 10dpo x

Sadie95 · 28/12/2019 22:23

@mariarosa1991 I have no idea, I went off the first response website which said 3rd jan. how many DPO will you be on New Year's Day?

@Crazymummyto3 aww, let us know when you test again! Hopefully a stronger positive line x

Crazymummyto3 · 28/12/2019 21:11

My cycles have been all over the place so I think I'm due on 2nd Jan. I did an IC this morning and got a faint pink line, but I've have that before on those and not been pregnant so I don't trust them. I'm going to do another in the morning, and if it's a bfn I'm going to try and hold off until 1st January. What a wonderful start to the new year that would be!

@Sadie95 will be testing New Year's Day if AF hasn't creeped up yet 😖...When are you testing? X

OP posts:
Sadie95 · 28/12/2019 18:57

@mariarosa1991 I am 4DPO so just behind you 😊 when are you testing? I am TTC #2 but this is my first proper cycle since having my coil removed.

Hi to all new ladies...

Just an update, I'm 5dpo today, been feeling absolutely shattered and laying in bed for a lot of the day, also feeling quite heavy in pelvis like period is about to start. I'm convinced it may be AF ready to arrive as I've been getting my usual chocolate cravings and been stuffing a lot of it today, not convinced this month is my month!

Hi everyone. TTC baby 2. Testing New Year’s Day, unless AF comes before then (usually 28 day cycle but last month was 32! Don’t know why and go knows what that means for this month).

This two week wait is just eurgh.

WednesdaySpinner · 28/12/2019 16:18

We are ttc baby #1 too. AF is due around 4th Jan and so I'm going to use all of my willpower not to test early and to wait and see what happens! Good luck to us all Smile

Diamanda85 · 28/12/2019 14:17

Hello everyone Smile
9dpo, AF due on New Year's day, 8th cycle ttc #1. I will be testing on the 2nd.
Getting a bit stressed - we're 34 and 43.
I have stopped symptom spotting as I've had every possible symptom in the past months with no bfp. Good luck to everyone! x

CuppaTea86 · 28/12/2019 13:45

Sorry about your losses @tubbyswife and @brodijen
How long have you been trying for @Sophj19? It does sound early to be testing, don't give up hope!

Sadie95 · 28/12/2019 11:20

Hey! Can I join in ladies? I am current 4DPO and going to do first response on 3rd jan as that is what is says for me to do on the calculator they have on their website 😀
