Well since we are at the tail end!!

@Beau2020x @quiffy @Symptomspotter86 @BFP2020 @ange211

@Mumofboys17 no I think its from the pain, they aren't normally this bad and it's just making me nauseous 🤢 maybe it's from flying through different time zones ✈️🤷‍♀️

I know right it's so weird I'll even try to help it along but nothing works haha just can't finish! Xx

@Beau2020x definitely a line there so yeah just give it a few more days lovely it's not even FMU xx

@Langpants this'll be cycle 6 for me. Your symptoms sound super positive! Fingers crossed x

@Beau2020x yes that is a line. Once you are 12DPO you should have a better line. Fingers crossed for you lovely

Quiffy · 26/01/2020 16:56

It’s a good line so I’d say good sign, defo try and wait a couple of days to give it a chance to build up. You’ll be driving yourself crazy otherwise when you should be zen ❤️❤️

Beau2020x · 26/01/2020 16:53

@Ange211 no it was one of the early result ones.

Okay so there is the squintiest of lines EVER. And this was after about 5-10 mins. I think I'm just going to try and avoid testing for a few days. I'm just being cruel to myself & holding on to a glimpse of Hope. I'd say the line isn't as dark as yesterday but I've drank more water today. It's definitely pink as well.

I agree with @ange211 it’s not likely sensitive enough @Beau2020x

Ange211 · 26/01/2020 16:43

Was it a digital @Beau2020x? I've heard those aren't very sensitive. Maybe just too early for it to pick it up?

Beau2020x · 26/01/2020 16:36

@katie1109 you sound just like me! I started with sore boobs about 7DPO. Not the nipples either.

I think it's too good to be true girls. Did my other CB test about 1pm today and of course BFN! I've just bought another FRER and waiting to see what that comes out with. I am far too impatient to wait for FMU.

Quiffy · 26/01/2020 15:46

@Katie1109 ooooo that does sound promising. Do you think you’ll test in a few days?

@Symptomspotter86 don’t blame you breaking dry jan!

Ange211 · 26/01/2020 15:18

@Katie1109 ooooh sounds very encouraging. As for tha pain maybe try paracetamol since it's safe if you are pregnant, a well fitted bra (I was at the breast clinic & got a bollocking for how crap mine is lol) and maybe a cold compress.

Symptomspotter86 · 26/01/2020 14:34

@Beau2020x when did you start to get your symptoms?

@katie1109 that sounds positive!

I'm only 3 or 4DPO so just about the enter into the loopy crazy stage. Come 5DPO and I will be making up symptoms in my head. I broke dry Jan yesterday. But had to be done after all the stress this week. Been around my 11 week old nephew all morning and he was screaming and crying all morning. Think it may have put OH off having kids afterall 😏

Katie1109 · 26/01/2020 14:08

Afternoon ladies x how are we? @Beau2020x did you test again? x 7DPO today for me and my boobs are in agony, and I mean agony. Nipples are not sore but the rest of them is so painful, especially on the sides 😭 no cramps or anything, quite a lot of creamy CM x af due next weekend so that boob pain this early on may be a symptom x I could barely sleep at night x any thoughts on how to help the pain? x

Quiffy · 26/01/2020 13:35

@Langpants they all sound super positive! Fingers crossed 🤞

Langpants · 26/01/2020 13:21

@Mumofboys17 - Thank you. First baby I was so certain of my cycle - it was all like clockwork but this one has been so confusing. Getting lots of symptoms already like I did before, but don't want to get my hopes up.

Love seeing everyone getting BFPs so back in the groups to join in! 🥰

Langpants · 26/01/2020 13:17

Thanks @Ellsbells112 - definitely not testing yet. This is my second baby and I think I got a faint line at around 8-9dpo. So exciting though. Currently got cramps on my lower right side. Same as last time. Been having the usual stuffy nose when waking up, sore nipple (only have one working boob because of b.cancer), sensitive scalp.

I think if I'm not pregnant, I'm going nuts because I can feel all sorts at the moment.

This is my second month trying so hoping it's a goer.

How long have you been trying for?

Symptomspotter86 · 26/01/2020 11:47

@Beau2020x YAAAAAASSSSSSSSS I am so happy for you! Woohooooo

Quiffy · 26/01/2020 11:44

@Mumofboys17 @ellsbells112 I’m yet to see much difference with epo, so not sure it’s worth choking them down. Everything I’ve read says pre seed does the same job anyway @Ange211 not sure I’d be up for sticking them up there 😹😹😹

How’s everyone feeling this morning?

I had another big temp rise this morning 🤔 exactly like I usually get after ovulation. Starting to think I should have kept using my opks in case I didn’t actually ovulate this first time I got a peak. Time will tell I guess, 9dpo today and don’t usually make it to 11/12 dpo before af hits 🤔🤪

Ellsbells112 · 26/01/2020 11:25

@Mumofboys17 hahaha I know what you mean!! But tbh il try it another month when I'm not taking the medication and see if it helps. Also tons of water 💦😅 xx

OP posts:
Mumofboys17 · 26/01/2020 10:53

@Ellsbells112 think I'll just stick to preseed this time.. a hell of a lot easier and much less of a choking hazard 😂😂😂

Mumofboys17 · 26/01/2020 10:53

@Ange211 hahahaha think I may have to consider that!! 😬 never used to have this problem before, must be an age thing?! 😂 X

@Beau2020x don't want to get ahead of myself but I personally really recommend a private scan! My NHS 12 week scan was 2 weeks late 🙄 so we booked a private one to go to beforehand and it really put me at ease! They really take their time going through everything with you and the pictures are the best quality! In my case my 1st NHS one felt really rushed and if that had been my first and only scan I'd have felt just as flappy and stressed as before 😂 xx

Ange211 · 26/01/2020 09:26

Hardly dtd bodes well for me...DH struggled with smep bless him said he's not a young man now 😂
Think we'll just do it when we don't have our children camping out in our room and see where we end up. Got a letter yesterday for my pelvic ultrasound so that might shed some light on my horrendous mid month/ all month long cramps.
@Quiffy I read an article online about women using epo vaginally and I though wtf untill I saw the size of them - think I'd rather use them up there than try and swallow them 😂

Beau2020x · 26/01/2020 09:23

@Mumofboys17 I think I'm going to be the same!! I wasn't like this last time! Deffo booking an early scan if it's all systems go!

@Ellsbells112 did it like 4 days before ovulation and then I swear I ovulated about 5pm (worst pains ever) and DTD that night like 8pm 😂😂😂 those where the ONLY 2 days in the FW

Ellsbells112 · 26/01/2020 09:19

@Beau2020x the one day that you managed to dtd what day was it before ovulation? 1 day? Day of??? I need to know hahaha! It's weird because @Sunflower2019 said the same that they only did it once!! I might just have to dtd once the day before ovulation (or whichever day you're about to tell me!! Lol) and hope for the best!

@mumofboys17 hahaha they are big but I manage them 😂😂 dirty shlagggg! Lol
They haven't helped me much this cycle I've had barely any ewcm but this letrozole medication dries you up apparently. We used preseed last night hopefully it helped x

Mumofboys17 · 26/01/2020 09:13

@Beau2020x totally get where you're coming from. I think it's perfectly normal. Hate to say I still felt like that until my 12 week scan! Just wouldn't allow myself to be happy until I could physically see my little squishy was OK in there! When we did conceive though we hardly DTD at all too! Just one lucky stab in the dark (if you pardon the pun 🙃)

I also had VERY sore boobs and awful constipation in the early stages! Xxx

Mumofboys17 · 26/01/2020 09:11

@Ellsbells112 the motivation is real! I choked on another evening primrose tablet this morning 😩😂😂 DH has categorically told me I'm not allowed to take them when I'm home alone haha ffs 🤦🏼‍♀️ think I may need to quit while I'm ahead! I'm not due to ovulate for another 2 weeks 😂😂😂

@Langpants Hi welcome!! I'm no where near that yet (long cycles thrown me completely out the group loop) but I think a few ladies on here are currently in the TWW 😊 not long til you can test now! X

Beau2020x · 26/01/2020 09:09

Thanks girls! I love you all!!

@Mumofboys17 I'm not even ready to get my hopes up yet 🙈 we hardly DTD at all I just don't know how it could possibly happen?!

@Katie1109 just really sore boobs at the moment, left more than right which is weird. And reaaalllyyyyy bad constipation 🤦🏼‍♀️ cramps have pretty much stopped since 7DPO.

@Ellsbells112 think I'm going to test tomorrow morning if I can wait until then. I don't jade and FRER left and I don't trust the CB ones 😂

I don't dare get my hopes up, the amount of times I've seen chemicals etc etc. I'm just hoping that as I've had 2 previous pregnancies and they both lasted 10-11 weeks that I may be okay. But it's never certain is it.
