@babydancing2020

Felt exactly like that last week and I dont blame you. It’s exhausting and takes over your life! Maybe that’s not such a bad idea to take a break from it all
Sending hugs xxx

@Babydancing2020 I'm
Sorry you are feeling so low. It is such a difficult time. We spend our whole teenage years thinking that if we look sideways at a guy we will get pregnant. And sometimes it works like that and other times it doesn't. I find that the days are so slow when I'm counting g them. It's an awful way to wish your life away. Take some
Time for yourself. Xxx

Since my period still hasnt come and my cramps dissapeared i thought let me do another test.
And it came out bfn obvs,i feel like theres always gonna be a negative..
Im just waiting on my period now...and I feel like Im done.
Like i just feel empty and done,i tried everything for 7 cycles and it hasnt happened yet and it will happen when the time is right but still..
I decided to throw away all my cheapie tests and delete my fertility tracker and just give up and forget about it.
I'll continue taking my vitamins but thats it it has controlled my life and I know many women go through harder times and I really respect them and u guys.
But I feel like its okay now to just let it go and let it happen whenever it happens..
I just wanna wake up one day and think oh i missed my period lets try a test and it acc turns out to be positive. Instead of the tww and early testing and symptom spotting and stressing im so tired of it.
Baby dust to all of u
Im out xx

So after AF being 2days late which is the first time it has ever been late I honestly thought this was it but I've woken up this morning with horriable pains and the Witch has arrived, I struggle to understand why it's takes so long sometimes when all I hear is people accidentally falling pregnant whilst on birth control and the rest. Just got to keep going I just tell myself it can't be the right time yet for whatever reason it's not happening it must be for the best! Now it's just the awful part telling my partner AF has arrived, he always seems so disappointed.

Sunshine1606 · 12/02/2020 06:50

Hey ladies,

Did a frer from Amazon last night and my maybe if cheapie lines have become definite lines.

After months of waiting/ hoping and a series of Mumsnet name changes, it's finally happening.

I have everything crossed for everyone on this month's bench xx

user1469567046 · 11/02/2020 20:18

Hi @Blackbelt 🙋
Good luck 😊😊

Blackbelt · 11/02/2020 18:33

Welcome @meemooxxx I’m new here too!

So true that’s is cruel that symptoms are the same whether it’s period or pregnancy 🙄

I’m trying not to symptom check for at least a week! Due 23rd ... somehow feelings positive the month as I know we did it when I was ovulating! Fingers crossed xx

user1469567046 · 11/02/2020 17:33

@Babydancing2020 tiredness could be a sign of either... That's the cruelest part I think that symptoms could literally be for a bfn or a bfp.
I'm feeling ok, haven't had any af symptoms , usually get really bad skin and bad moods before hand but none of that. Been fluctuating between appetite and cm is still quite present when it isn't usually.
Argh I don't know 🤣 hate symptom spotting but can't help it.

meemooxxx · 11/02/2020 17:29

Hey this is my first reply on here. Just trying to find me feet on the forum. I am due on my period on the 27th of February and have just finished ovulation. Really hoping it's worked. Been trying since November xxx

Blackbelt · 11/02/2020 17:24

@calimommy come join our thread, I think it's got the terms 3 DPO and TWW in the title x

@user1469567046 ahh its fine i already expected it its just tht little bit of hope tht made me do the test anyways.
I feel a bit tired todayy like I just wanna sleep the whole day literally no energy i dont know why probably my period.
Other thn that the cramps they come and go its not constant so will just have to wait innit.
This month is deffo not mine i hope you'll have a bfp soon!!
How are you tho how are you feeling.
And the waiting is horrible i know wish you a (positive) valentines day;)

@Blackbelt @lunasunshine I'm also due AF on the 24th eek x

user1469567046 · 11/02/2020 14:18

@Babydancing2020 I'm not sure I can see a line 😔 sorry lovely. But they say it isn't over until af is actually here. How are you feeling other than cramping?
I did a frer yesterday, which I don't know why I even did it as 5 days before af is so early and of course a bfn.
I'm hoping this valentine's weekend is one to remember but just got to wait and see what happens.
It's the waiting game that is the most excruciating part.

Blackbelt · 11/02/2020 13:20

@lunasunshine practically the same as me! There is a thread for people in their TWW due around 21st-25th :)

Bunnycharm32 · 11/02/2020 12:40

@butterflylove81 it consumes us! Hear of so many people saying they were convinced af was coming but the got a bfp, I can't help believe that'll happen to me. But it just leads to massive disappointment 😒 xx

lunasunshine · 11/02/2020 12:35

Meeee. Just at the very beginning of the (excruciating) TWW. AF due on 24th Feb. We’ve been TTC since July 2019 (our first).

@user1469567046, not kidding! He was like what's this 🏄🏽‍♂️ 🤣

Oh it's such a dreadful time, I can't concentrate at work, I have been researching like mad again. I now convinced myself that I killed my egg today by eating two doughnuts!

I read that small daily dose of aspirin can have some benefits when trying to conceive 🤔🤔

Baby hugs to you all 😻

I just took two cheapie tests i dont know why..maybe cuz Im a test addict xd maybe because there was a little bit of hope? Maybe this cramping wasnt meant for my period to come in 2 days buy a pregnancy?
But no im calling it a negative. Although i do see something but its not convincing me i acc think itd cuz I wanna see it. Looks more like a faint evaporation line probs cuz i stared at it for literally 20 minutes now...
