@sansa87 I'm going for Monday 15th too! Got a lot planned for the weekend so gonna pre occupy myself and TRY not to think about it 🙌🏼 xx

Sansa87 · 12/06/2020 13:44

Okay, let’s get some positivity in here! We are all to meh!

When is everyone testing?

I’m going for Monday 15th June, wirh is either 1 or 2 days before AF

whambam89 · 12/06/2020 13:31

@Rotagilla I'm with you, honestly if I'm not pregnant then God knows what's going on with my symptoms this month because I'm definitely not imagining them but they're so so much worse than usual!

So annoying that so many of us had great symptoms but doesn't sound like there's going to be many bfps Sad

ScottishLassie3 · 12/06/2020 13:20

claireb707 I feel the same as you, 9 dpo. No symptoms whatsoever, can't even make them up. Did the BD on all the right days too so still crossing fingers.

Sansa87 · 12/06/2020 12:47

@Rotagilla yeah, I think so. I’ve been having them for about a week though. I know I’m forever saying to oh that af is coming and it takes a while To start

Rotagilla · 12/06/2020 11:50

@Sansa87 I know! It does really help having you all on here.

Me too I just want it to arrive and then go so I can crack on with the next cycle.
I'm trying to ignore all the little odd symptoms and not let the hope creep in.

Do you usually have cramps at 10dpo?

You know there’s such thing as a rain dance. Can we not invent a baby dust dance? 😂

claireb707 · 12/06/2020 11:48

I've got no clue whether I feel pregnant anymore or not, earlier in the week I was having loads of symptoms that I don't normally but now nothing. Am 9dpo today 😢

Sansa87 · 12/06/2020 11:41

I wish we could have a huge group hug 😔

I just want af, I keep getting symptoms but I’m sure I’m not. Like 99.9% sure I’m not.

I just went for a wee at work, looked in mirror and noticed my gum was bleeding.

Now the thing is, I quit smoking before ttc. I’ve quit before in the past and for some reason it makes my gums bleed, so it’s definitely that, but obvs also a pg symptom.

Had a few more af type cramps this morning too. I’m 10dpo today

Rotagilla · 12/06/2020 11:36

@kirinm definitely 😊
To be honest I feel relieved knowing, uncertainty is the worst!

kirinm · 12/06/2020 11:32

Ah no sorry to hear that @rotagilla

if you start a new thread for next month I'll join you!

Rotagilla · 12/06/2020 10:59

Just taken a first response one....
BFN so il just accept that and get prepared for next month.
Feel better already knowing for sure.
Now to await AF....oh joy! 🙄

@kirinm hopefully the worse back pain than normal could be a good sign. Fingers crossed AF doesn't arrive for you.

OP posts:
kirinm · 12/06/2020 10:57

Oh I'd 100% have done the FRER by now. I literally have zero self-control.

kirinm · 12/06/2020 10:53

@Rotagilla I'll probably test again but given the reviews I've read on amazon, even if I was pregnant it might be pointless. It's the weekend tomorrow so I'll be more distracted than I currently am so I might not obsess so much. I'm assuming AF is going to arrive on Monday but still have that "hmmmm, but what if"... swirling around my head!

I've never had backache quite as painful as I did yesterday (leading up to AF) and I really hope that was a one off because I could do without that every month.

Rotagilla · 12/06/2020 10:37

@kirinm yes I just needed a treat too 😂
Mmm Ben and Jerry's

If I'm not pregnant this has been the absolute worst month for symptoms!
Seriously everything has been amplified x100
Surely it can't be that I'm just more aware!

We are both due Monday right?
Will you test again or just wait and see if af arrives?

I think next month I will buy better ones too and be strict about when il test.

I have a FRER left though 😩 might just do it and start preparing for next month!

kirinm · 12/06/2020 10:30

@Rotagilla I hear you - I sent my partner out for a tub of Ben and Jerry's and I really am not that bothered about ice cream, and a bottle of rum. - I wasn't craving it but I wanted a "treat" as I felt so shit.

I've never used those tests before - in fact I don't think I've ever seen a Home Bargains before.

I'm also going to buy better tests for next month and only two or three of them so I can't go mental like I have done this month with testing.

LittleTooMuch · 12/06/2020 10:28

@LeopardLover - yes lets fast forward a few days and get it over with. I think my body hates me! After having cramps on and off for 24 hours now I feel like I am getting the flu, I'm all achy and clammy

Rotagilla · 12/06/2020 10:24

Last night I was so emotional, I felt sick and lightheaded and hot.
I went and brought a chocolate cheesecake and a bag or Terrys chocolate orange slices (ate most of it) Not like me as I'm usually very careful about my diet.
Been so weepy this morning too so I tested again, I'm 12dpo.
But BFN, either my pmt symptoms have ramped themselves up a huge notch or the test isn't great.
I brought a pack of 3 from Home Bargains 😂
I did find a post online where someone said they were rubbish.
Anyone have any experience with them?
Feel silly buying such cheap ones now 🙄

whambam89 · 12/06/2020 10:04

@kirinm it's due between Sunday and Tuesday so still early I guess, might contact them if AF doesn't show up.

kirinm · 12/06/2020 09:21

When is your AF due? The EPU will take bloods for you if you are pregnant and they can do that straight away, you'd need repeat bloods as you know but that could put your mind at rest that the pregnancy is at least in the right place. Whenever I've been pregnant and they've been told my history they always agree to scan or take bloods.

Tigger1987 · 12/06/2020 09:15

Morning everyone,

This TTW time is so hard isn't it. I am getting similar AF pains not due till Tuesday but looks similar to last cycle. It is not over till AF comes though. I think I am about 8/9 DPO but my cycles are short (25/26 days)

@FoxtrotOscarPoppet Sorry to hear AF arrived. Really hope next cycle is the one.

Sorry for the BFNs. 10/11DPO is still so early though especially as HCG takes a while to show up.

@Sansa87 Lots to keep your mind busy at the moment. It is hard isn't it as we don't want to get our hopes up and then our body gives us a small reason to be hopeful. So exciting buying your first house together.

My FRERs arrived in the post yesterday and I have hidden them to try and stop me testing!

whambam89 · 12/06/2020 09:14

@kirinm thank you, I really hope so. I'm worrying now that it could be another ectopic though - I was so convinced then that I was pregnant that I tested even after my "period" and ended up getting a positive 7 days after - but the delay in the positive was obviously a sign of an ectopic because my HCG levels were a lot lower than they should have been

That positive is definitely still there from yesterday though and it's definitely pink. Just strange that I'm now getting negatives Sad

@mm26 I'm going to attempt to wait until Monday I think.. translated as I'll probably test every day until AF shows haha

mm26 · 12/06/2020 09:01

Sorry, I don't know why all of that came up bold!! 🙈

mm26 · 12/06/2020 09:01

@whambam89 I think that's my issue. I don't 100% know when I ovulated don't I can't be sure.** Hopefully the bfp will show up in a few days! When do you think you'll test again?
So, I've looked back at last months symptoms vs this month. I got really fatigued around predicted O last month (start of the month) and I also had bad fatigue at the same time this month. Last month I had some cramping on my 2nd day I was fatigued which could have been O I guess?
This month, my app had me O earlier than the fatigue started, but when I look at symptoms, on 2nd day I was fatigued I had cramping again- meaning my ovulation was 3 days later. Meaning that I could technically only be about 8 DPO. It's a lot of ifs and buts, but I think that's all I can think as unfortunately google can't tell me if I'm pregnant or not 😂 the only reason this all sticks out so much is because when I had those cramps this month they were so painful for maybe about an hour? They woke me up they were so sore!
TL;DR I'm convincing myself I ovulated later than my app said because I'm still holding out hope for this month! 🤞🏻

kirinm · 12/06/2020 09:00

@whambam89 I have never seen a positive on the internet strips that was false. If you can you might just need to wait and see but I think you have reason to be optimistic.
