Thou will not get stressed.

Thou will symptom spot casually and not obsessively.

Thou will not test before 12dpo.

@whambam89

Am I right in thinking this thread will be full at 1000 comments? Don't think I've ever been on such a busy thread before 😂
Yep

15 today, 4 days to go before I'll accept I'm out :p

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 14:22

@alyosha fingers crossed for you 🤞 how many dpo are you now?

Alyosha · 16/07/2020 13:07

Congratulations @krj2608!

I thought AF had started on Monday, but it hasn't really got going. It's just slight spotting, mostly brown. This happened in my last pregnancy, I feel like my body is trolling me big time. I have POAS every morning now - all BFNs. Reminding myself it took until 19dpo with my first to get a BFP. But still more likely AF is just about to ramp up...

@LeopardLover sorry to hear AF is in full flow for you!

this TTC malarkey is giving me a full on fear of pregnancy tests.

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 13:00

@leopardlover oh no! Hopefully next cycle is the one for you 🤞 I am so uncomfortably bloated today, don't usually get bloated before AF but probably another symptom I'll just have to add onto my neverending none pregnancy symptom list 😂

LeopardLover · 16/07/2020 12:49

@whambam89 AF is in full swing! Actually not too disappointed because I didn't feel pregnant at all 😅 I hope you have more luck xx

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 12:31

@leopardlover I think that sounds really promising 🤞🤞 it's pretty normal to have spotting I think!

krj2608 · 16/07/2020 12:26

Thank you!! @whambam89 @Rotagilla

Very surprised! I felt off today, a bit sicky and stabbing pain low down so decided to test. Will retest tomorrow on fmu. X

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 12:25

@rotagilla I'm keeping up with the August thread ready for my inevitable move over in the next day or so!

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 12:24

@krj2608 congrats!

I'm getting more tempted to test now but also have a really big feeling that it's just not worked this cycle. I've got a CB but might get some cheapies from home bargains later and test in the morning at 11dpo if no sign of AF by then

Morning lovely ladies!
Sorry I've been quiet on here, am due to return to work so it's been a bit manic.
I've read the thread and tried to catch up and update the spreadsheet...
But not easy and I'm bound to have missed something, please let me know of any errors or missing info ❤️

So excited to see another BFP @Babyyno2

Hope that whoever hasn't been successful has found us on the August thread x

@kirinm Maybe if I'm not in full flow by tomorrow morning I will, so I can use FMU!

kirinm · 16/07/2020 10:54

@LeopardLover if it is making you anxious, might be worth doing a test?

LeopardLover · 16/07/2020 10:32

@kirinm I will! Just scared myself reading about brown spotting at this stage, but also saw it can be normal for some to get it before AF is due - it's just unusual for me! X

kirinm · 16/07/2020 10:28

@LeopardLover oooh well if it doesn't show up properly today it might be worth testing especially with the bbt rise!

LeopardLover · 16/07/2020 10:25

@kirinm Thank you! Hoping it's in full flow today. Last tested 2 days ago. I blame Femometer for getting me hyped up about having a higher temperature for 17 days and telling me to test 😅 weirdly BBT went up this morning. X

kirinm · 16/07/2020 10:16

@LeopardLover sorry AF is messing you around. Have you tested recently?

@whambam89 fingers crossed for this cycle but if not, your LP getting slightly longer is no bad thing.

LeopardLover · 16/07/2020 09:27

@whambam89 Morning! I've just had some brown spotting, hopefully it's the start of AF and not anything more sinister - CD30 now! Xx

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 09:24

@babyyno2 great news, hopefully you won't get any symptoms again this time then!

I'm ok, AF due today and have actually not tested yet for I think the first time ever haha. Have had a few symptoms but not looking into them too much because it seems to happen every month. If AF doesn't show I'll test Saturday at 12dpo (my LP has been pretty short recently)

Babyyno2 · 16/07/2020 08:42

[quote whambam89]@babyyno2 how are you getting on? [/quote]
Hello 😊 sorry I've been quiet we are away this week on a mini holiday.
Really good thank you - I am 4 weeks pregnant and have my 1st meeting booked in with midwife.
I have had no symptoms whatsoever - I know it's still early but feeling like my normal self!
The only symptoms I had with my DD were very sore boobs but I've had nothing. I didn't have any sickness throughout my pregnancy so hoping for the same this time around 🤞
So just goes to show everyone is different and sometimes having no symptoms is also a good thing.
How are you feeling?

whambam89 · 16/07/2020 08:29

@krj2608 how are you doing? If I remember right you're a similar dpo to me?
