2WW anyone? Fancy symptom spotting with me for fun?

I'm in 2WW 3DPO and been up every 2 hrs to pass urine and dying for a drink. Had twinges/pulling in lower abdomen all night and a weird full feeling in the bottom of my belly. Where's everyone else at in 2WW and how are u feeling? x

@nam095 is a temp drop not also possible at implantation which could also explain the cramps? Don't write it off as AF just yet!! I feel awful tonight, just had tea but couldn't finish as I felt sick and I'm so tired (laid on my bed now but I need to go round the cattle still - we're farmers). I'm not sure if it's because of my tesco high waisted jeggings digging in and the fact we're only just back from our honeymoon or whether they are symptoms.. Its possibly too early for symptoms like that at 6/7dpo?!

EJay84 · 11/08/2020 19:32

Yes, like bad period cramp and a weird pain in my back at the bottom right. x

@EJay84 oh that sounds promising and how bad are we talking? Like af style? That's what I feel like with a sore back threw in for good measure xx

jmc211 · 11/08/2020 19:09

@Nam095 I hope not. I don't temp but thinking if it's a bfn I will maybe order a thermometer and try it.

@Lollol86 I have no willpower but I'm going to try and hold off maybe 3-4 days depending on how it goes. What about you? I know I'm still way to early and will likely get a bfn but the urge is there lol

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 18:43

@Amy259 thanks lovely

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 18:43

@jmc211 I'm hoping 🤞🏻 when are you testing?

EJay84 · 11/08/2020 18:38

If it's any consolation, I had bad cramps st 8DPO then my BFP 2 days later. Must have been implantation x

@jmc211 @Lollol86 I’ll keep my fingers crossed that it’s a great sign for both of you!

@myfavouritefudgecake I have some FRERs waiting for me at our local amazon pick up point. They arrived today but I’m not collecting them because I’ll just test and it’s too early - because clearly I’m a toddler with no self control 😂

myfavouritefudgecake · 11/08/2020 18:06

@Amy259 Due in the next 3 days. Probably the 14th. I might order some FRER on Prime and give it a go tomorrow. I almost can't bear to see the BFN.

Nam095 · 11/08/2020 17:57

@jmc211 I’m 10 dpo and had some really bad cramps today! I’m convinced AF is coming as my BBT also dropped yesterday :(

jmc211 · 11/08/2020 17:48

[quote Lollol86]@jmc211 I'm exactly the same, 9dpo and feeling really crampy. I was convinced I was going to come on earlier.[/quote]
I just hope it's something for us both and a we get a bfp together

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 17:38

@jmc211 I'm exactly the same, 9dpo and feeling really crampy. I was convinced I was going to come on earlier.

jmc211 · 11/08/2020 17:32

Going by my dates I'm 9dpo and having awful cramping. I'm hoping it's something but is anyone else the same. Feels like I'm going to see AF any minute even though I'm not due on yet xx

Amy259 · 11/08/2020 17:16

@Welliedays really sorry to hear about your chemical - fingers crossed for a sticky little one! I tested with just a cheap strip at 6DPO just to get rid of the urge to test (I knew it was going to be bfn obviously 😂) and surprisingly it worked and I was fine after that. But I just the Premom strips and the app has a fb group that I joined, which doesn’t help because some people in it get positives at 8DPO!

@myfavouritefudgecake when is/was AF due? I think most show by 13DPO so there’s a good chance you would today but if you didn’t there’s still time - it’s not a bfn until AF shows!

Welliedays · 11/08/2020 16:24

@amy259 I need to step away from the tests too... I'm probably 6 or7dpo and I'm tempted.... But I had a chemical last month but the early pregnancy unit told me to retest in 2 weeks time (which I think is wrong as I would have nearly been 6 weeks when I spoke to them which is the point they should be able to scan to confirm) which would be next week... But if I don't confirm soon that it's defs not happening (which I know about for certain) then the midwives will be making an 8 week appointment for me, which I obvs won't need. So if I use that excuse and test I'll be expecting a negative anyway and that might feed my need to test until next week when I'm more likely to get a positive for this last attempt... Although I'm not feeling like I did last month so I'm not hopeful!

myfavouritefudgecake · 11/08/2020 14:11

I'm 13 days DPO and no sign of AF. No AF symptoms or pregnancy symptoms as of yet.

It's unusual for me not to get AF symptoms though. I suppose my boobs are a tiny bit tender but they're normally killing me by now.

I don't have any tests in the house so that's stopping me obsessively testing! Would it definitely show up today? I keep thinking that I'm out because I got a BFN a couple of days ago but I can't help but wonder...

Hope everyone else is doing well and the 2WW isn't feeling too long!!

Amy259 · 11/08/2020 14:00

Hi everyone, can I join please?

Currently 8DPO and forcing myself to step away from the tests... I don’t thiiink I’ve had many symptoms but spend most of my day wondering if that was a cramp or a twinge or if my nipples do feel sensitive 😂 had a really sharp shooting pain almost up between my legs (TMI!) on Sunday night but nothing since.

Wishing you all lots of luck!

acaciabluebell · 11/08/2020 13:11

@laurenah Yeah I always have had irregular cycles (23-31 days) so it's not that unusual for me. I'm currently on CD30 though and I've only had one cycle longer than 31 days in like 5 years lol. So not that hopeful either...but you never know I guess!

laurenah · 11/08/2020 12:57

@acaciabluebell Oh wow that's a huge difference!! I have only ever used an OPK about 3 times but I have a huge bag of them in my draw. I just don't really understand how to use them so I gave up lolHmm I'm fingers crossed but I really doubt it as my last pregnancy I had a BFP the day after my missed period day. Thank you thoughGrin

acaciabluebell · 11/08/2020 12:52

@laurenah Oh yeah Flo isn't that accurate at all it just guesses based on 'typical' cycles with a typical day 14 ovulation date and luteal phase, etc. I know that when I first used OPKs, Flo predicted I would ovulate on day 12/13 and I actually ovulated on day 20... So when I eventually got my period, it was "8 days late" according to Flo but it wasn't actually late at all.

So you could very well be much earlier than you think, there's still hope! Not out since AF shows, as they say ☺️ good luck

laurenah · 11/08/2020 12:39

@acaciabluebell I am currently 17 DPO but I am going off my flo app so I can't be 100% sure. Also since I had a miscarriage in May my periods have changed dates but they used to be like clockwork!

acaciabluebell · 11/08/2020 12:19

@laurenah what DPO are you? I've also been getting negatives on FRER tests and expected my period around yesterday/today so assumed I'm out. But as I didn't track ovulation, I'm thinking that I might have ovulated later than expected and might be behind where I think I am...I probably shouldn't give myself hope like this 😂

laurenah · 11/08/2020 11:43

@Welliedays Aw no! Sorry to hear about your chemical! I've never tried the Morrison's ones. I usually just use the Asda £3.50 ones.
Also AF still hasn't made an appearance for me. It was due yesterday

Nam095 · 11/08/2020 09:51

@Welliedays It’s due around 15th, I know that’s still 4 days away but these cramps are too strong to be anything else

Welliedays · 11/08/2020 09:42

Ahh no @nam095,are you expecting it soon?
