Starting the game early this month! 1dpo... nothing yet apart from excitement that I’m trying very hard to tame. I managed to get my first positive ovulation test yesterday so hanging in there for the tww! ❤️ How many dpo are you guys x

@Kona84 &@organised5 I’m currently 5dpo/6dpo and having the same symptoms have you done tests year?

Litttlebird · 07/02/2021 22:49

Good luck to you to @Kona84 xx

Litttlebird · 07/02/2021 22:48

@Noo3833 great news and fingers crossed for my bfps tomorrow xx

Kona84 · 07/02/2021 12:38

@noo3833 Good luck or tomorrow.
I have 6 cheapies left- going to test first thing in morning at 12dpo.
i'm still a bit cautious i'm not quite letting myself believe it yet until AF is officially late.

Noo3833 · 07/02/2021 10:36

Congratulations to everyone who’s got a positive so far! It feels like a really successful thread which is really uplifting ❤️ Gives us all hope ❤️
I am officially 11dpo and tested again this morning, I’m positive I saw a line on both FR & CB! It was so faint but a little darker than last time so I’m so hopeful. Will test again tomorrow maybe this evening but I need to get more tests 😂❤️

@Kona84
Aw congrats how exciting! I havent tested today im going to test in the morn as will be 10dpo. I have veiny boobs but only at night time and dull ache every now and then in tummy but think its because AF is on the way xx

@Kona84 yay! Congrats on the positive I definitely see it ! Xx

Kona84 · 06/02/2021 13:25

I tested today 10dpo with 3rd wee of the day because I woke up too early and forgot to test the FMU.
I got a faint positive
Symptoms
I’ve had loads of symptoms since 1DPO and all though I’ve been tracking them I was convinced it was in my head.
1-3dpo super weepy cried for stupid reasons.
5-6dpo mainly waves of nausea, cramps and boobs started hurting. Very vivid dreams too. Also had the weirdest CM it was like lotion but stretchy and very thick.
7-9dpo - boobs really sore hurt to walk fast.
More cramping, nausea increase in appetite and some morning diarrhoea. Headache started last night too.
10dpo- another vivid dream, no cramps but frequent urination and boobs still hurting. I still have some thin and wet CM

@emilyylouise ooh exciting, fingers crossed for you xx

I took another test this morning using first wee of the day, ha. For the first time on a FRER I could make out a faint second line to the point where I actually said "oh my god" on the toilet. But so so faint that I still am not holding out much hope.

At the same time AF is still not here, my nipples are sore, I don't have the usual pre period signs... so who knows. Am going to try and wait til Monday to test again if AF doesn't show.

Going to try and have a chilled weekend!

emilyylouise · 05/02/2021 18:19

I am officially late today! Going to hold out and test on Sunday 🤞🏻

Kona84 · 05/02/2021 16:34

Ovia says the 9th premom says the 12th and fit bit says the 10th feb. All have the same data inputs lol.

I’m gonna count it as missed after the 10th as that will be CD29 and I’ve been having 28 day cycles recently.

I normally don’t start with PMS until a couple of days before AF and most often it’s just a craving for chocolate and sore boobs.
But I’m so desperate to get pregnant again I could easily be creating phantom symptoms

staceyboo999 · 05/02/2021 15:51

@Kona84 very similar to me, although still getting bfn’s. This afternoon i come down with a massive and so tired i had to close my eyes for half hour. Woke up feeling sick but probably due to my headache! When is your AF due? Im going to hold of testing for a few days (if i can) x

Kona84 · 05/02/2021 14:36

Got my hopes up now I too have seen weird CM for this time of my cycle. Been tired too.
I have had some cramps but they started around 6dpo and are very mild and not like AF Cramps Af cramps for me tend to be sporadic and sharp pains this is more like a dull ache.
Peeing constantly and my boobs are still really sore.
Oh and sorry for tmi but a bit of diarrhoea in the mornings - only the mornings.

It’s so hard when everything could equally be AF.

Litttlebird · 05/02/2021 13:01

aww thank you ladies. I’ll keep you posted with progression lines over the new few days!

@Kona84 - symptoms wise generally tired and a bit grouchy and moody (but we are in the middle of a pandemic and I’ve been working a lot so maybe be a combination of that?!).

A few vivid dreams (but maybe just linked to anxiety!?) but the tell tale has been really achy lower stomach and back- not so much cramps that come and go more a heavy dull ache that hasn’t really gone away-‘more noticeable in the evening but maybe cause I’m just more responsive to it sitting quiet on the sofa!?

Also not been to keen on food the past few days and for me that’s unheard of but on my last pregnancy I couldn’t stop eating !? So who knows!!

CM wise- just a lot more than what I’d be normally - sometimes clear and watery - sometimes whiter but definitely more than typical the week before AF is due !

One random thing I noticed last month (CP) and this was both at 7dpo I had awful lock jaw.. and same times a few shooting pains in my lower stomach.. . Jaw was awful to the point I failed to eat an apple!! Really strange but have read it can be hormone related!!

Everything crossed for your BFPs soon ladies xxx hopefully this little bean sticks x

Kona84 · 05/02/2021 12:43

@Litttlebird are you able to summarise your symptoms so far?

Kona84 · 05/02/2021 12:41

@Litttlebird congrats fingers crossed for the rest of us

pixiedust21 · 05/02/2021 12:12

@Litttlebird aw yes definitely a line!! X

Noo3833 · 05/02/2021 11:52

@Litttlebird eek! Congratulations

@Litttlebird absolutely a line and not even a faint one!

staceyboo999 · 05/02/2021 09:37

@Litttlebird
I defo see a line on the top one congratulations!! Xx

Litttlebird · 05/02/2021 09:31

Hi ladies

I caved this morning. I did two cheapy’s from eBay ( one step strips) ... both BFNs but I have been feeling a bit off so I dug out a old freedom Tesco cheap one. Pretty sure there’s a faint line.. !? yet the Tesco one has a 25mlu detection limit and the strips “should” be more sensitive at 10mlu !? I’m 9dpo maybe 10 dpo so still very very early . I’ve had FRERs on order since Monday. Post is awful atm due to covid but I’m holding out hope they will be here today.

Posting pics of the strip and the test- ( I dipped the same sample) - as I wanted to should you how different tests can give such different results ! X

@Noo3833y cramping seems to have stopped anyway now so who knows 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
I have itchy nipples its driving me mad 😂😂
Do you have any other children?

Noo3833 · 05/02/2021 09:24

@staceyboo999 well I don’t know 😂 I’ve noticed twinges last night but it was brief and light? Today both my nipples feel a bit strange almost cold and tingly or sensitive? They’re definitely not cold I had to check as it was feeling so weird 😂
