@tossacoin1 @AnxiousAnnie86 my boobs are starting to feel sore today... I think this means AF is going to come early like it did last month. Last month I remember my boobs hurting earlier on and thought it was a good sign :(

AnxiousAnnie86 · 19/02/2020 07:27

@tossacoin yeah they do.... I think! My cycles have been a bit all over since a MC last year so this is only my second time with a somewhat regular cycle recently x

SS123456 · 18/02/2020 16:56

@tossacoin1 this is my 4th month TTC no.2. I have a nearly 8 year old son from a previous relationship and I'm 36

paintfairy · 18/02/2020 16:16

@tossacoin1 I usually get painful boobs from ovulation until AF. Yet I haven't either.

Beesly · 18/02/2020 16:10

4dpo here too! Had cramps today and wondering if I should still be trying or if the window is over? This is my 3rd month trying after mc in Nov at 11 weeks. Has anyone else had a d&c? I’m wondering if my cervix isn’t strong enough yet after the procedure. Pregnancy test companies must make a fortune from us!!

@AnxiousAnnie86 do they normally hurt this time in cycle? No I've had nothing. Thought had a bit of pelvic pain earlier but not sure if I imagined it. Last month I thought I had symptoms and nothing so trying not to read too much into anything

Winterfellismyhome · 18/02/2020 15:30

Hi @AnxiousAnnie86 I am only 5dpo and I am symptom spotting like crazy even though I know its too early for anything really yet. So many people have symptoms so early on but I read somewhere that before implantation your body doesn't even know it's pregnant yet so how can you have symptoms. Obviously people do I just wish I was one of them!

@paintfairy I'm exactly the same with the cramps. I thought I had a slight pain in my right pelvic area earlier but it only lasted a minute and now I'm wondering if it even happened! I had intense cramps last night but I think that was due to my bowels haha

SS123456 · 18/02/2020 15:05

Hi ladies! I am currently around 4dpo 😊

paintfairy · 18/02/2020 15:04

I'll not use proper ones unless I think it's likely. I hope not to use the cheap ones but- in an emergency? 😂

I don't know. I've had a funny month. Random spotting Sunday at 4dpo but that's assuming I even ovulated when I thought. And I often spot on and off anyway. Feel slightly crampy today but can't decide if its in my head. Temp is high today finally. It's been all over.

biscuit13 · 18/02/2020 14:55

@paintfairy haha already! 🙈 You're not going to start testing yet are you? I'm 5dpo and quite relaxed

tossacoin1 · 18/02/2020 14:54

@paintfairy you've changed your mind I see lol well at least they are cheap ones so you aren't wasting too much money Smile have you had any symptoms yet?

OP posts:
paintfairy · 18/02/2020 13:56

@tossacoin1 @biscuit13 I've ordered some cheap tests from Ebay. Shoot me now. Lol. 6dpo today.

@biscuit13 @paintfairy I completely agree with both of you and I would love to wait till af was due to test but I know that will never happen 😂 it is def a waste of money, I spent so much last month on tests but that didn't stop me. So I've actually just bought some cheap ones off eBay for a couple quid as know what I'm like and won't be able to wait. Last month I thought I had symptoms when they wasn't so I'm def gonna try and be more chilled this month.....she says

biscuit13 · 16/02/2020 11:20

@paintfairy exactly! Plus when I do find out, I want it to be a stronger line... not guessing is it/isnt it.... like you said it wont change anything knowing a few days earlier! I'm with you on this one!

paintfairy · 16/02/2020 11:12

@biscuit13 😂😂 That's my plan. But let's see what happens in another week. Lol. I just can't see the point in wasting money on tests though. And false hope. Because knowing a few days early won't change anything. Either way.

biscuit13 · 16/02/2020 11:00

@tossacoin1 maybe that's just me though, I like knowing whats going on lol im going to try and hold off testing unless I get symptoms... AF is predicted on the 28th but last month was 4 days earlier than my app predicted. last month I got AF 12 days after ovulation... im going to try and wait until the 28th though I think.... its hard because my cycles are all different each month, so last month when I got sore boobs really early I thought it was a good sign but turned out AF was early... so that's taught me to be more patient this month.
going to try and be more like @paintfairy

paintfairy · 16/02/2020 10:40

@tossacoin1 yeah not sleeping and stressing I can't get a temp to even confirm I ovulated! Once I do, I'll be happy and will hopefully switch off a bit. The temping and opks definitely stress me. I'm pulling back next month!

I'm not planning on testing. I'll just wait for af to arrive which is predicted for 29th.

@paintfairy are you driving yourself mad yet? When do you plan on testing? You're just a day ahead of me (not that I know for sure). I'm trying not to overthink anything for a while yet as I know it's too early for anything

@biscuit13 that's one of the reasons I didn't want to do them just yet cause I thought it would make it more stressful but that's interesting hearing you say that. I think next month I will definitely buy some, thanks. When will you be testing? I'm hoping by next Sunday latest I will get some symptoms if conceived

OP posts:
biscuit13 · 16/02/2020 08:51

@tossacoin1 it is helpful using opks, I've seen a lot of people saying it increases the stress, but for me I find it less stressful and more reassuring that my body is doing what it's supposed to, and it all ties in with me having ewcm too so it is accurate.
