If you're addicted to POAS and symptom spotting then join the club!

I'm currently 2DPO after a terrible flu virus caused late ovulation. I'm
Not holding out too much hope as ovulation was about a week late so my luteal phase may prove too short or maybe my LH surge was detected on OPK but I'm too sick this month to actually ovulate. Not much sex this month either. However I'm a crazy person in the 2ww so looking for like minded POAS addicts to join the ride!!

@Katnissx it was stil an obvious line this morn but not as dark and a one step was negative x

Spotting is a very hopeful sign! Fingers crossed! Anything else??

Sorry hadnt finished.... still no sign of symptoms for me, my boobs are ever so slightly sore but that's all..: I really don't have a good feeling! Anyone else any symptoms,

How's everyone doing today?

@AnxiousAnnie86 any update with the OPKs?

@charlesthekudu you always have a bit of LH during your cycle so that is why it is showing up. Don't be disheartened because it was faint, doesn't mean you're not PG!

I've had a bit of spotting today (5dpo) which coulddd be implantation bleeding.. or it could just be my body doing something else weird as it seems to like doing! I'm hoping it's not going to turn into early AF 😫

AnxiousAnnie86 · 20/01/2020 10:34

@charlesthekudu I think mines just a fluke! Implantation wouldn't of even happened yet I don't think meaning it can't be the hcg setting it
Off! Same for you! There is plenty of time for both of us this time round!! X

Negative OPK 😩 well there is the faintest of second lines but I think that's because my
LH surge was 6 days ago only so it's probably being detected from that. It's somewhat prepared me for the inevitable negative pregnancy test / AF arrival this week so probably a good thing I tested today!

@AnxiousAnnie86 that looks very promising!!

@AliSxo I was the same this morning, wanted to test at 4dpo 🤦‍♀️ managed to stop myself (just about)!

@charlesthekudu my ovulation was late too, Ovulated on CD 26 due to a CP last month which has messed up this months cycle! I'm going to try really hard to wait till 14dpo to test in fear of having another CP. It's so hard though isn't it! I will probably crack and end up testing early any way 🤦‍♀️

@AnxiousAnnie86 aww that would be lovely for your 5 year anniversary. I really hope this is your month! 🤞

AnxiousAnnie86 · 20/01/2020 08:06

@charlesthekudu that's the exact date of mine too!! I'm trying to put off the testing by using opks. Mine started to go back positive the last time which is was prompted me to take a test.... unfortunately that pregnancy ended in MC,
Now I may be clutching at straws here and I know it isn't positive but this is my opk.... they've been much much lighter ever since O. Also have such a bad headache this morning x

It's just so tempting isn't it! Frustratingly because of the flu I had this month and the fact I ovulated a full week late... I think AF will be late regardless because my cycle was disrupted because of the flu. So I can't really rely on how late AF is because there's a good chance I'm going to be naturally late! If I go by The 'rules' I should test 15 days after my first positive ovulation test which would be the Monday 27th!!!
No way I can wait another full week!!

I wanted to test today at 4dpo how silly lol I know it would have been bfn so decided not to be so silly!! It's so exciting knowing I'm going to POAS!! I'll start on Friday when I'm 9DPO even still that's early XX

AnxiousAnnie86 · 19/01/2020 13:44

@charlesthekudu I've got to the point now where I would take the sickness! I'm really hoping for a positive next week it's our five year anniversary and would be so so lovely to tell my husband! When are you testing? X

Oh @AnxiousAnnie86 I hope you don't get it this time round! I had no sickness at all last time!

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 19/01/2020 12:06

@charlesthekudu I seem to remember from my last pregnancy that The sickness I'm sure started from ovulation till the bitter end 🤣 maybe it just felt like that xx

My BFP last time didn't come with any symptoms, I convinced myself I wasn't and had a few gins last time so I was very surprised to get that BFP. However having been pregnant I think I'm just looking for symptoms that I remember in my first trimester!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 19/01/2020 11:34

@jurrasiclover thank you! You too! I'm hoping so! I hope 6dpo is just too early to have any symptoms going to try wait till the weekend to test but I know I won't! X

Jurassiclover · 19/01/2020 11:14

@charlesthekudu I love hearing about other people's symptoms, so interesting to see what everyone's feeling! They sound promising, I hope it's a good sign for you!🤞
And thank you x

@AnxiousAnnie86 I know a few who have said the cycle where they had no symptoms lead to a BFP so it may not mean anything! Keeping my fingers crossed and sending baby dust your way x

AnxiousAnnie86 · 19/01/2020 10:38

I am 6dpo now and don't feeling anything at all! No cramps sore boobs or anything. I had really sore nipples from 2dpo to 4dpo! But even that's stopped now! 😩😩

I feel crampy, hungry, tired and I feel a big change in my sense of smell. Everything smells weird at the moment! I keep checking my app obsessively and repetitively counting days until I can test. I don't know why continuously looking and counting will magic me from 3/4dpo to 11 but there you go... I love a glass of wine with my dinner most nights and have been off of that too!
