Hi, I know there are lots of these threads, but thought I would start a new one for anyone new to mumsnet (like me) and doesn’t know which thread to try and join.

I’m 28 years old and I’m on cycle 6. I’m now 6 DPO.

Please anyone feel free to join; it’s nice to have others to go through it with.

27, cycle 3, 7 dpo. No symptoms. Disapointed as I'm sure I'm not pregnant but I guess you never know. Try to tell myself it's early days but so many people around me are pregnant and all seem to have fell really quickly too!

@Rhall26 Thanks lovely. Yes it's pretty much the same idea. Lots of good reviews online too. We also bought a Fertilily conception cup but I wasn't too keen on using it 🙈

Hi @KSI88 sorry to hear of your miscarriage. I hope this is your lucky cycle! I’ve only heard of conceive plus, is preeseed the same idea?

Hi all! Been TTC since October. Had an early miscarriage early March. I'm only 3dpo today.

We've been using preseed this month. My last BFP came after using this so 🤞

Good luck ladies. Hope we all get our BFP's this month.

@Nat4392 same here! I’m 7dpo, but I’m having no symptoms which makes me worried. AF due between Sun/Mon. Trying to remain hopeful x

Congrats @kim160790 hope to see a good line on your FRER tomorrow 😊
Literally no symptoms for me (apart from bigger/sore boobs but that’s normal a week before AF for me). In a way it’s a good thing so I don’t get carried away with myself! Only 7DPO and AF is due Saturday/Sunday, keeping my fingers crossed x

Sausage1990 · 11/05/2020 19:54

Oh that's so exciting @kim160790!!!

I've had cramping since ovulation too... The cramping has got a bit worse today and I've just felt fatigued, nauseous & had achey boobs. I'm toryign so so so hard not to overthink it... I'm only 7dpo so way too soon to think about testing.

Hows everyone doing? Any symptoms? Xx

whambam89 · 11/05/2020 18:21

@kim160790 that looks very promising! Fingers crossed for a nice strong line on the FRER tomorrow x

kim160790 · 11/05/2020 15:49

I took this this afternoon wasn't expecting anything at all! My partner bought them for me and gave in to temptation. Will buy a frer first thing tomorrow. I used the other test I had and that was positive too. But worried as I've had cramping since ovulation and hasn't stopped. Never had that before 🤞

Pol96 · 11/05/2020 15:47

@kim160790 that's amazing!

Marrilou · 11/05/2020 14:57

Thanks hope so! Will test again tomorrow with a first response so fingers crossed...

@kim160790 that looks promising for 10dpo!! Exciting!

Hi all, hope ok to jump on! I'm currently 10dpo, did an internet cheapie this morning but no hint of a line. @kim160790 did you test in the afternoon then? I've heard that SMU can be better than FMU so now not sure which to use tomorrow?!

bumphope2020 · 11/05/2020 14:38

@kim160790 that looks promising. Do you have a pink dye test you could use ?

kim160790 · 11/05/2020 14:03

10DPO!!!!!

Arh, I always thought with an aversion, just the smell would also make you feel nauseous?! I like the smell of the coffee, but if I drink it my nausea seems to be kicked up a notch or two!

whambam89 · 11/05/2020 13:31

@batman baby sounds really promising, the coffee thing sounds like an aversion!

Pol96 · 11/05/2020 11:47

Every time I notice something I'm telling myself it's probably nothing.. And then I start the googling! Hopefully this is a lucky thread for all of us!
@BatmanBaby sounds promising fingers crossed for you

BatmanBaby · 11/05/2020 11:13

Also coffee seems to be making my feel more nauseous...no idea if that's a symptom...driving myself mad lol

BatmanBaby · 11/05/2020 11:12

Thanks - just trying to hold out, don't want to be really down by getting a BFN :(

@BatmanBaby that sounds promising! Let us know if you test!

@bumphope2020 google is the worst for symptom asking. Especially as so many are PMS symptoms too. Our bodies play cruel tricks on us!

bumphope2020 · 11/05/2020 10:43

I've had different symptoms every month and always BFN. This month I feel very tired and thirsty, which after much googling means I'm either pregnant or have diabetes. I think Google's top result should be "if you're TTC stop scrolling, it's all in you're head and you need to step away from the computer".

BatmanBaby · 11/05/2020 10:25

I was due my period between Saturday and today... I've got sore boobs and slight nausea. I'm trying to hold off testing, as last month I was convinced I was pregnant and wasn't :(

whambam89 · 11/05/2020 10:07

@Rhall26 no symptoms can sometimes be a good sign! With DD1 I was so adamant that I wasn't pregnant because I had no symptoms then got the darkest BFP on the day AF was due. Fingers crossed for you 🤞
