Hey everyone!

I'm either 3 or 4 dpo and looking to chat to others for the hpt countdown nightmare.

I feel like I've bought a lottery ticket. Excited, hopeful, but ready for a great big nope too 😀

@Ginini I just knew I was pregnant with DD2 before taking a test because I had thick sticky CM!

Fingers crossed for you!

Ginini · 23/11/2020 11:48

Back tracking on the dried up CM, just went to the toilet (sorry if TMI) and had egg white type Cm but really stick, thought that was really strange so googled it!
Sorry again if TMI! Researching myself crazy!

Hi @rttcbabyno1
I seen people who get BFP say they didn't have any symptoms, that's what was different for them, no AF symptoms either so maybe it's a good sign 🤞🏼

Ginini · 23/11/2020 11:33

@vicki1990 it's so frustrating isn't it! If it's AF it needs to hurry up an arrive! If not I'm
Sure my test would be positive by now I think I'm between 11-15dpo but I'm not 100% sure as I'm so irregular!
Although my CM seems to have dried up and I've started with lower back ache which is normally a sign of AF isn't it so I'm not holding out hope now, but I'm also CD31 and I'm usually 25-30 so who the hell knows 😂
How many DPO are you now?

Sorry to hear people AF like cramps, lots of chocolate and hot water bottles, but fingers crossed they're a different type of cramp 🤞🏼❤️

rttcbabyno1 · 23/11/2020 11:20

Morning all! I've been following this post for ages but haven't commented in a while 😊

I'm 10 DPO now virtually no symptoms.. apart from cramping very mildly over the past couple of days but they seemed to have stopped now... also been having really wierd dreams... I've been waking up every day the past week thinking WTF was all that about lol. Due AF Friday.

I know not everyone gets symptoms but I just don't feel pregnant... I must admit the dreams are very wierd though. Has anyone experienced the same? Xx

shelbyrae · 23/11/2020 11:15

@Er1608 cervical position :)

Er1608 · 23/11/2020 11:05

@shelbyrae cp?

WicketBasket · 23/11/2020 10:42

@Mokoblack Good news that your cramps are steady-maybe a BFP is on the way? 🤞

Ooh let us know how you get on with testing? I’m due Thursday too and would normally have tested by now but these cramps have put me off! I’ll save my tests I think Grin xxx

Mokoblack · 23/11/2020 10:39

Morning all!

@Coffeecake90 I was the same last month, it was my first month too so went a bit testing crazy so holding back this month.

@Hollybeex @WicketBasket sorry to hear both your cramps are getting worse, mine are steady so fingers crossed. I’ve asked the other half to get some frer wanted to wait till Thursday but will probably test tomorrow.

shelbyrae · 23/11/2020 10:33

3dpo and already not feeling hopeful lol! cp getting lower and hard...breast pain...no cm (but haven't had it at all this cycle for some reason)...dull cramps and backache. ahh such a nightmare lol

Pollyell · 23/11/2020 10:28

@er1608 that sounds like a good plan, unfortunately we've just got to ride it out! Lots of luck to you too @seasalt1984!

Seasalt1984 · 23/11/2020 09:55

@Coffeecake90 snap! I'm in cycle 2 and trying to rein it in a bit this month with early testing... it's so hard trying to hang on though! Confused

@er1608 I'm still doing that in second cycle 😅

Lots of luck! Smile

Er1608 · 23/11/2020 09:42

@Pollyell this is our first month so I'm just constantly reading and researching like a crazy person haha!! I haven't actually got any tests in the house so I'm going to just not to buy and order any to stop any temptation haha. AF is due 4th December so feels like it's going to be a long wait....

Pollyell · 23/11/2020 09:30

@er1608 sorry that last post was from me. Did a name change for another post Blush

Coffeecake90 · 23/11/2020 09:29

@er1608 I am going to try and hold off another week - got a bit carried away with pregnancy tests last cycle as it was my first month! Soo tempting though! How about you?

WicketBasket · 23/11/2020 09:26

Morning @Hollybeex! Sorry to hear your cramps are getting worse. I’m in the same boat, cramps massively worsened overnight and this morning have the very familiar pre AF feelings of being super tired, ongoing cramps and a feeling of fullness down below (TMI sorry!)
Yesterday night I had some spotting when I wiped and this morning had sticky CM with a brown tinge so sure AF is right around the corner.

It’s very disheartening isn’t it? Sending you lots of love 💕 it’s not over until AF arrives so I’ve got my fingers crossed for you! Are you due Thursday did you say? I just feel like these last few days are dragging on!! Xxx

Hollybeex · 23/11/2020 09:21

@WicketBasket I'm cramping too, they seem to be getting worse sadly. I was convinced I was going to start bleeding last night! How are you feeling today?

Hollybeex · 23/11/2020 09:18

@KitQ I so know how you feel 😩 I had some EWCM yesterday that I thought was very odd to get at this point in my cycle. My cramps seem to be getting worse sadly, I was convinced that AF was on her way last night but nothing yet! How are you feeling today?

Er1608 · 23/11/2020 09:16

[quote Pollyell]@er1608 same! I think I am 5 or 6 DPO and have been getting lower comfy discomfort/stretching like feeling. I feel like I've defo never noticed this other months but don't know if just hyper alert. Glad I'm not the only one! X[/quote]
Ah glad to hear it's not just me !! Are you planning to wait to see if AF arrives or going to test early?

vicki1990 · 23/11/2020 09:12

@Memcf2 congratulations that's a great line!!

@Ginini I am experiencing the same thing as you! Been spotting since 9dpo thought af was here yesterday, and just spotting bits here and there. Obviously poas because I'm an addict and as blank as can be.

I'm wondering if I have a progesterone issue after coming off the pill, I took it for 13 years with the last 5 years being taken continuously without a break (as advised by gynae for painful periods) I just want her to come now so I can get on to the next cycle!

mineandyours · 23/11/2020 08:23

Hi all! Can I join you in your wait?

I'm 9dpo today and not actively trying for baby but when we last DTD we were careless and I calculated it was right over my ovulation window! I was debating whether to take the MAP but DH and I decided what will be will be.

I don't know whether this is psychological or not but I've been having vivid dreams last 3 nights and weeing quite a lot! Both super early symptoms I had when pregnant with my 2 DDs.

I'm 32, have one DD who is 3 and one who is almost 2 😊

Ginini · 23/11/2020 06:54

@WicketBasket well you're not out till AF arrives!
I had one more episode of spotting when I wiped yesterday the. Nothing again since, did a IC this morning and it was as blank as can be 🙃 who knows what's going on!

Ginini · 23/11/2020 06:52

@Seasalt1984 thanks that's helpful!

WicketBasket · 22/11/2020 22:09

@Hollybeex I had some spotting at 6DPO which was about 4 days ago and since then, ongoing lower abdo cramps. Exactly the same as the ones I get pre AF anyway, so not too hopeful Confused
I’ve now also had some pink tinge on the loo roll after going for a wee (TMI sorry!) so think AF is just around the corner :(
Your symptoms sound promising though! Especially the constipation! I’ve heard loads of pregnant women say that was one of their first symptoms so fingers crossed for you 💓

@Ginini You’re so sweet! Not out yet, AF due on Thursday but now having pink tinges when wiping so I’m not feeling too hopeful, especially as I’m still having those dastardly cramps I always get before AF tears her ugly head 😂😉🤪💓
