Testing around 9th/10th June?

Hello,

TTC our second, DD is 4. This is our second month properly 'trying', but I've been off the pill since January and nothing yet.

I haven't used OPKs but track using an app which is usually quite reliable, ovulation was apparently 27/5. I get quite obsessive with testing, spend so much money on tests then disappoint myself by testing far too early, so just looking for anyone in a similar position to go through the 2WW with Smile

Hi

Is it okay for me to join please. Trying to convince baby number 2. Have started having fatigue, dizziness, sore boots, increased urination and forgetfulness as well as aversion to certain food.

Stupidly tested today and was negative and period is due on 6th June. I'm just looking for some support

Thanks, I am craving sweet things and have super oily skin which are 100% AF signs for me the week before so I think its def on its way next week.

Trying for baby no.3 and I don't have anything similar to the early signs I had with my other two (bloating/vivid dreams).

Still you never know right? Those early tests are talking to me....

Good luck everyone!

@chillybandits Heya!! I'm 6dpo today if I go by when I thought I ovulated as to when my app says I ovulated, I've been getting a side pain today in my right side low down and shortness of breath which is weird for me, I think I'm just going crazy though and symptom spotting! 😂
Fingers crossed its our month 🤞🤞! Stay positive. What kind of tests will you be using? It's so hard to try hold off isn't it. I really really can't wait! But the disappointment is hard isn't it 😔
How are you feeling? 🤞🤞
@Drf I've had a false positive before a very faint one and convinced myself I was but I wasn't, it truly is so sad isn't it. Fingers crossed for you this month 🙏
@ScarlettOHaraHamiltonKennedyButler good luck! It's very hard not to test early. I'm going crazy 🙈 have you any symptoms?

I have been spending an unhealthy amount of time looking through the conception board at pictures of other people's tests. Obsessed isn't even the word.

@ScarlettOHaraHamiltonKennedyButler I always test far too early and disappoint myself! AF is due on the 10th for me, so not too far apart. I spend so much money on the FRER tests every month.

I was convinced last month I had pregnancy symptoms then AF came 2 days early Angry what kind of symptoms have you had? It's so hard to tel between early pregnancy twinges and early AF signs! x

@BabyBx hello!! Happy to have someone to talk to over the next few weeks. I always drive myself crazy. AF is due on the 10th but I can never wait until the day of, always start testing 5/6 days before AF which is not ideal! I'm just so hopeful for another baby, fed up of the disappointment every month but trying not to get my hopes up at the same time Confused I've not had any symptoms or anything yet that I'm aware of...
How are you feeling? xx

AF is due 8th so I am trying to hold off testing until 7th. I bought the early detection tests and even though I reeeeeally want to use one tomorrow but I know it's too early and I won't get an accurate result.

I already feel like Im getting some PMS symptoms so thinking it's not to be this month.

Drf · 01/06/2022 19:14

Hey guys!
I'm now 2dpo and will be testing shortly after (like the 13/14th!)
We tried the SMEP this month but I just have a feeling that this not the month... maybe that's just my defences so I'm not too disappointed! We got a false positive on a cheap test last month and i was all over the place emotionally so this month I refuse to do the crazy early obsessive testing 😳 (I say that now... give it a week or so 🤣)
Fingers crossed for you guys 🤞🤞 can't wait to hear your results!

BabyBx · 30/05/2022 15:13

Hiya! 😁

I'm around 2-4 days past ovulation so very similar to you! According to my app I'm 2 dpo but - I think I ovulated early due to my discharge being watery a few days earlier than my app said
I'm thinking of testing around 10th June my period is due on the 12th!
It feels like a very long wait ahead doesn't it 🤦‍♀️!! It's nice to share the experience with others xx
Fingers crossed this is our month 🤞🤞
How are you feeling? Xx
