Despite my TTC last month, it resulted in my AF arriving Christmas Day (deep joy!) it's round 2 this month! I'm due to ovulate on Monday (6th) so anyone else wanna join me, with the overthinking, being excessively paranoid, mystery pregnancy signs and taking PT's when you know you shouldn't be! 🤣🤣
Feel free to jump on the crazy train with me!

I really didn't think I'd find the tww that bad but I'm 8DPO and just want to know either way

DustyDiva · 14/01/2020 13:13

Hello all, hope everyone is well 😍
Af due today but we have had no mail delivered due to being cut off by the storms so no tests!! And no af either.

HGee12 · 14/01/2020 12:20

@Ginge35 looks like we're both the same this month then 🤞🏼

Flowerpot26 · 14/01/2020 11:57

Hey everyone, sorry I joined then just disappeared! Finally got some time today and trying to catch up! Hope your all well and I've got my figers crossed for everyone!

I'm not sure when I actually ovulated, I know when the app says but I'm not convinced, might get the ovulation strips next month. Possibly 5/6 days or could be 3, who knows! Lol.
I'm going to test on Sunday which will be super early af not due till Wed, but it's hubby's birthday so would be fab if I was.
Hope everyone is good!

@HGee12 not much my end either except cramps. My boobs are usually really sensitive right about now on the run up to AF, but nothing so far! I'm hoping the lack symptoms is a good sign but I'm not holding my breath! 😬

HGee12 · 14/01/2020 09:55

Anyone else having zero symptoms?
I'm 7DPO and I normally record cramping and sore boobs everyday from 5DPO till AF arrived fit I've had nothing at all 🤷🏼‍♀️ hoping the change could be positive 🤞🏼

LV1987 · 14/01/2020 08:51

Morning everyone, hope you are having a fab week!

I'm up to CD 34 now, no sign of AF and I'm assuming this is my settling down cycle after coming off the pill. I've had cramping at seemingly random times throughout, which I am hoping is a sign of my body gearing up for SOMETHING, but at this stage, I'm not sure what Hmm

In terms of other symptoms, all I've really noticed is being able to smell EVERYTHING, but I have marked that down to dry January, as I'm particularly sensitive to the smell of booze at the moment... As in literally smelling it a mile off!

It's looking positive for a few of you out there this week, excited to hear more Grin

Ah yeah @ablisha I get it now haha! 🤦🏻‍♀️
I ovulated Wednesday last week, so only 5DPO! Everything I'm feeling, is exactly how I felt last month, so I really do think I'm out this month! The only thing that's different is that I'm stupidly tired! I spent most of my weekend asleep on the sofa!
And on that note I'm off to bed! Night ladies!
Keep posting! ❤️

@Wiggleyfingers dull ache is a good description actually!! Mine is more back but tonight (last hour ish) I feel lower tummy aches too. Here's hoping there are a few little eggs implanting soon for us all! I'm 6DPO today 🤞not even love island is distracting me from symptom spotting 😆😆

ablisha · 13/01/2020 21:40

@Ginge35 two week wait!

Ginge35 · 13/01/2020 21:39

@newmum2020 I don't have lower back pain just really bad cramps, but they feel like AF cramps 😭😭😭 I really want to be wrong and hoping me feel completely knackered is another sign but I think I'm just poorly!
Fingers crossed for all us ladies! My crazy is starting to manifest 🤪🤪
By the way, what does TWW mean? 😝😝

OP posts:
Wiggleyfingers · 13/01/2020 21:26

@newmum2020 I'm 5dpo and have a dull ache this evening. Crossing everything that it is the beginning of implantation when really it's just the crazy coming out. I didn't log pain at this time last month so hoping it's real and not a phantom symptom!

newmum2020 · 13/01/2020 21:04

On the plus side @Ginge35 we are halfway thru the TWW 🤗🤗🤗

newmum2020 · 13/01/2020 21:03

@Ginge35 I was thinking it could be the start of implantation surely by this point? Fingers crossed!! I've got a dull ache in lower stomach now....but is it just my mind playing tricks!!!!! Ahhhhhhhh 🤯😫

Fingers crossed for the green light @FarmerWantsABaby 🤞🤞
@newmum2020 I really want my cramps to be a sign of an incoming implantation and then BFP, not an incoming AF! Desperate to test but I'm going to do my absolute best to wait until my AF is late 😬😬😬

OP posts:
FarmerWantsABaby · 13/01/2020 20:51

I'm still in the full wrath of AF 😫 went to reflexology today and she said my ovaries were very inflamed. I'm looking forward to seeing the Dr tomorrow for a chat about things. Hoping I'm the only one on this thread to get a visit from AF this month. Sending good vibes to everyone for a BFP 🤞🏻

newmum2020 · 13/01/2020 20:43

Not really @Ginge35 I've had slight cramp in lower back last night and tonight and today a bit looser stools then norm. Still got spots lingering on chin but have had them for a couple of days now. I was convinced on Sunday I had tender boobs but I don't (and I did by this point last time according to what I logged symptom wise on fitbit app) like you I think this isn't my month. 😟

BecauseReasons · 13/01/2020 20:39

Anyone else had symptoms like these?

Yes plus spots, but I'm not putting it down to anything in particular. It's clearly hormonal in nature, but I've no clue if it could be ovulation or an incoming AF or anything else! Ah well, just gotta wait and see, I guess.

@Geauxtigers if you get a BFP first time, you will be the envy of this thread! Fingers crossed it's all the right signs for you 🤞
I'm getting the same thing, but my AF is due in 8 days, but only 5DPO, so there is no way they are all linked to being pregnant, I think I'm just ill and it's how I felt last month, the run up to my AF turning up.
I think I'm out for this month (again!) 😭😭
@newmum2020 you're the same as me. Have you got any symptoms yet? I realise it's a little early but you never know! 😬😬😬

OP posts:
Geauxtigers · 13/01/2020 19:56

My AF is due in 11 days but I'm having lower back pain/cramps like I have in the week leading up to my period. I've also got loads of gas which is unusual for me and the last few mornings I've had very loose stool that i sometimes get during my period which I've always put down to a change in my hormones. I've convinced myself it's going to take me months of trying before I conceive so I'm not getting too crazy over the symptom spotting as I just don't believe it would really happen first time trying!
Anyone else had symptoms like these?

MrsD1990 · 13/01/2020 16:04

Oh no feel better @Ginge35!!

Afternoon ladies! I feel like total shit today! Stomach cramps, headache that's I've had since Saturday and feeling really really tired!
I have IBS and massively overate last night which is why I think I'm cramping. I'm too early for any signs of pregnancy, so I think I'm coming down with something!! 😩😩😩

OP posts:
DustyDiva · 13/01/2020 10:30

I have ordered more tests ( I live in a very rural and remote location ) so will just have to wait for them to arrive...

Gastonimo · 13/01/2020 07:55

Morning all. How's everyone doing?
AF due today so according to app I can do a test, but might wait a few days if I can bare it.

Something weird happened this morning in the shower, had funny taste in my mouth and my throat felt all flemmy so I spat it out and my mouth was full of blood. Fresh red blood which I don't know where it was coming from so kept rinsing my mouth with shower water.

Why1stheskyblu3 · 12/01/2020 21:41

@Ginge35 hoping this is your month too! ☺️
