@Talcott2007 I was like that last month. 😂 I was convinced I must be. Although I got bizarre cramping 10dpo with bleeding. And cramps on and off from then. I usually do spot but never with cramps.

This month- zilch. Less than normal pms symptoms even!

whatsthecraic91 · 19/02/2020 10:26

Woke up again sweating - AF was due today before I fucked my chart up 😐🤷🏼‍♀️

Talcott2007 · 19/02/2020 09:32

Currently DPO7 and I've woken up feeling a bit grim to be honest - trying not to over think and symptom spot but my goodness its hard when your body does stuff like this! Its probably nothing but so far today I've got:

Banging Headache
Sour metal dry mouth taste
Really achy hips and lower back
Desperately tired, like everything feels so heavy I don't want to move.
tender breasts (but not as bad a they often have been in previous cycles tbh)

Anyone else's body currently teasing them??

paintfairy · 19/02/2020 09:30

@anon87 that's the bonkers thing! It's never far out. So therefore I don't need to look, just make sure I'm dtd at the right time. But there's some strange urge to always 'know' what's happening!

Anon87 · 19/02/2020 09:14

@paintfairy It sounds like you know yourself well enough to not struggle without the extra analytical anyway. Sounds like a good idea.

Step away from the thermometer 😀

paintfairy · 19/02/2020 08:49

@Anon87 I actually think its the stress of knowing I need to sleep to take my temperature! I'm not doing it next month.....

Anon87 · 19/02/2020 08:44

@paintfairy With it guessing at my ovulation for 3 days we are now shagged out 😂 So this one rise and if it keeps rising means we didn't DTD on ovulation day but we did enough haha I'm happy it's over.

I think temping is gonna be the addiction in TWW rather than poas but we'll see.

Hope you get some decent kip soon. What do you thinks affecting?

Juno231 · 19/02/2020 08:36

Think I'm 8 DPO now and the symptoms I had at the start of the week are all long gone. I've sort of resigned myself to it not happening this cycle. Planning on testing this weekend so we'll see!

paintfairy · 19/02/2020 08:22

@Anon87 it should go up more than that eventually. Likely be higher still tomorrow. I'm still struggling to get temps because I'm not sleeping! This is driving me nuts. I woke at 1.30 3.40 and 6.50. It was 36.62 at 3.40am (low for me right now) and 37.00 at 6.50am (high). So what it really is- no bloody idea. 🤣 Yesterday it was 36.82 but I'd still not had enough sleep really.
Haven't slept for over a week, so how useful my chart is this month I've no idea.

Also still no sore boobs. Which is strange. But I must have ovulated as my temp is 36.3 before that. Even with the crap sleep its definitely not pre ovulation temps currently. Longest 2ww ever. 🙄

whatsthecraic91 · 19/02/2020 07:42

@Hatepickinganame are yous both off the weekend? If you are get plenty DTD then 😁

Anon87 · 19/02/2020 07:37

Temps up from 36.15 to 36.32!
I know it needs 3 days of a rise but I'm just happy to be understanding a bit of it 😄

Hatepickinganame · 18/02/2020 20:45

@whatsthecraic91 sounds like a good plan! Me and the oh are back on opposite shifts all week so ill barely see him til weekend and we'll be too tired for dtd haha app predicts ov for a week today though so hopefully wr will manage it around then!

*That way

whatsthecraic91 · 18/02/2020 19:24

Right I have decided I am not testing until Saturday morning, DP has the tests hid! That was I'll either be 17DPO or 9DPO, I know 9 is way too early but at least I will know I ovulated late if it's a BFN

paintfairy · 18/02/2020 10:07

The apps only work on a best guess. So can't be completely right. Only accurate BBT and opk usage would be.

I think the more we pay attention the more confusing it gets! 🤣 Its frustrating.

I think about sex if I'm in the mood. We both were last night and it was enjoyable. Nothing liked the 'have to' days.

littletandme · 18/02/2020 09:49

Still no temp increase for me, a bit if EWCM yesterday afternoon but by last night it had turned creamy. I don't know what my body is playing at. CD12 today, I wouldn't have been bothered waiting to ovulate later if my OPKs hadn't been all over the place.

I'm with you ladies about the increase in sex drive, I was on the pill from 15 then switched to the implant around 18 and had been on that since so I definitely didn't know what "normal" was! I do catch myself thinking about sex a lot but I didn't know if it was just because of TTC.

Anon87 · 18/02/2020 09:36

LH starting to give high readings so on its way down, FEMS all excited and updated me to OV as yesterday.
Put my temp in this morning (gone down) so now I'm supposedly OV today 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just shows that you can't live through these apps.

whatsthecraic91 · 18/02/2020 08:42

@MissTTC2020 it's either due tomorrow or next Friday so unsure what to do ☹️

MissTTC2020 · 18/02/2020 08:24

@whatsthecraic91 I've never taken my temp and know nothing about that so can't give any advice :( Is your AF due tomorrow? Tomorrow morning test maybe? :)

whatsthecraic91 · 18/02/2020 08:01

@MissTTC2020 I can't today as I have already been to the loo this morning but I really don't know if I should tomorrow or wait because my temperatures are completely messed up!! I don't know for sure how many DPO I am ☹️

MissTTC2020 · 18/02/2020 07:56

@whatsthecraic91 Ah same as me on my BFP morning! Eeeek! Are you going to test?

paintfairy · 18/02/2020 07:31

My temp is now up finally. We ended up DTD last night anyway! Even though I'm past my window! He's fine about often if it's wanted. Its more the forced issue of feeling you have to that I think he doesn't like. He's always had a high sex drive luckily.

whatsthecraic91 · 18/02/2020 07:29

Woke up absolutely sweating this morning and my temperature is up!! But I still don't know if I'm 13DPO or 5DPO - don't know when to test 😓

Anon87 · 18/02/2020 00:49

I asked OH about my drive tonight, if he'd seen a difference. The thing was only took out 3rd January this year..... Anyway, I got straight out "100%. It's tiring being the one to initiate every time when you don't know if you're just gonna get a knock back" Poor thing and now he can barely keep up 😂

paintfairy · 17/02/2020 19:42

@whatsthecraic91 same. I couldn't think about anything else! DH said you learn to switch off from it. I was like- how?! It drove me bonkers! I have got used to it now. And I don't think it's as bad as it was. But I was terrible for months!
