My ovulation day is predicted the 14th, but not sign of EWCM just yet so may be a few days later.

Anyone want some company this cycle?

Good morning
@Ginny2018 not out until period shows up! I totally agree about testing early and seeing negatives. It’s just soul destroying after a while but the temptation is so real!!!
@overthinkersanonnymus from my last two pregnancies no symptoms isn’t necessarily a bad thing!
@Adamsapple89 your symptoms sound promising!!!

so sorry if I’ve missed anyone just catching up this morning!
im still having period feeling cramps and lots of cm but no other symptoms. Just don’t feel like this is my month 😔 expecting an annoyingly early period any minute 😔Already thinking of what treats I’m going to buy myself when my period starts to cheer myself up!

Wictc · 25/02/2024 09:28

I caved as I felt really sick and thought if I am pregnant I’ll need to start on the progesterone and blood thinners asap. Just did a digital as all I had and very much not pregnant!!

Ginny2018 · 25/02/2024 06:20

Another stark white for me this morning (11/12 dpo). Still holding out hope to not be out (don't have any AF signs yet apart from being cranky but I think that is because of the overal stress). If I've learned 1 thing for next cycle in case it's that I'm NOT going to test before AF due date. I'm so sad every morning to see a negative even though I realistically know that getting a positive at this point is still early and rare 😅 You learn something every day I guess and I'm cutting myself some slack for the decisions i made because it's my first cycle ttc.

Anyone else testing today?

UnicornPrincessSarah · 24/02/2024 22:44

@Emilyx00 Im not temping or Opk so this month we have DTD every 3 days from the day my period ended and carrying on past predicted ovulation still staying with every 3 days plan to stop soon as period due 28th Feb to 4th March cycles are 28 to 32 days

i do track my periods and do nots on flo app and i also get pains around ovulation date

UnicornPrincessSarah · 24/02/2024 22:27

Hi @Rosyposy26 I haven't tested yet im only 9/10 DPO going to wait this time till I'm late. My cycles can range from 28 to 32 days but have had one be 2 weeks before. so could be due 28th to 4th March if 28 to 32 days.

2/3 DPO and 3/4 DPO bit of a sore throat this has now gone one day and was scratchy the next day like a lump feeling.

From 5dpo until 9dpo i had some left side hip and bum pain never had this before like a stitch/ tight muscle feeling and 5dpo had a shooting pain down my leg. Also a lack of bowel movements for me i normally go a lot due to ibs and normally go lots after ovulation as well. (not really got any bloating though and that's strange as been constipated before and then had terrible bloating)

My boobs have stayed tender and a bit sore since ovulation, but noticed now my nipples are more tender as well if I squeeze the nipple lightly feels bruised

5/6 DPO and 6/7 DPO woke up with sore muscles in the body hadn't done a workout and also struggled to sleep to just happened for these days now sleeping ok again.

9/10 DPO Today extreme fatigue have had to have some naps and lie in bed, some heavy feeling in the vagina and utures area from morning to afternoon now eased off , boobs are still tender

Keeping a log of my symptoms now so i can compare them every 2ww going forward if not my BFP this month, But they deff different from last month.

Hope your test wasn't an indent/ dye run as heard of these happening, your still in though 10dpo is still early

BussiBop23 · 24/02/2024 22:17

@Emilyx00

8DPO and no symptoms for me! I am very hungry and did have a sudden swing of rage earlier, but that's not anything new 😂

overthinkersanonnymus · 24/02/2024 22:06

I feel the least pregnant I've ever felt 😂

No symptoms over here at all

I’m feeling a bit sick, and really tired. I’m due on next week, but am too scared to early test as I hate the disappointment!! Had loads of pregnancy symptoms a few months ago and was convinced - then my period started 2 days early!!

How are you all doing today? I don't have any symptoms at all but I guess I’m only 4/5dpo. Anyone testing this weekend ?

Hey, I’m currently 8dpo. Have had bloody tinged cm 6dpo which has now stopped and currently have tender armpits which isn’t normal for me. However I’m just telling myself as much as I can it’s nothing because don’t want to be too disappointed. Due AF next Friday.

how are you feeling ?

Westy22 · 24/02/2024 19:51

Other than being so tired I don't feel any different tbh @Emilyx00 I suffered from bad bloating about two days ago but that's calmed down. My boobs have swelled and feel a bit sensitive but wouldn't say sore. All of which are probably symptoms of the build up to AF and hormone changes. I've ordered some more tests so we shall see how this pans out, should've probably waited to test as now I'm wishing the days away 🤣 x

Ginny2018 · 24/02/2024 19:25

@Emilyx00 I have sore nipples and feel super bloate at the moment (but I've had a huge dinner because I was insanely hungry 🤣). I tested negative so far and am 10/11dpo and will test again early tomorrow morning!

piechipsgravy · 24/02/2024 19:17

@Emilyx00 I'm feeling nauseous and a bit sensitive to smells. Boobs are less sore today and had some low down sensations so think that's a sign AF will come in the next few days ☹️

Still feel nauseous and sore nipples and tired but I did a test today or 5 today after the faint line on Thursday and nothing it was blank but I’m only 10DPO. Have no idea what’s going on. So going to wait until Monday to test.

Hello ladies,

it’s still early for everyone on here, we’re all still in with a chance!

I’m now 10DPO. Did a test early this morning and was BFN, but stupidly I looked back a few hours later and could maybe see a faint one of my eyes were tricking me. I’ve also had evaps before so I should have learnt to throw them away after the time window as the evap lines can be heartbreaking.

I’ll test again tomorrow.

@Westy22 big congrats! That’s so early to get a BFP, maybe it’s twins!!

I had a faint line in Thursday I tested today and a BFN so I’m now questioning if I actually saw a line. 10DPO so will wait until Monday maybe to test again. It’s so hard all this.

Ginny2018 · 24/02/2024 13:37

@Emilyx00 i used tests this month and got my peak on the 13th in the evening, so I should have ovulated on the 14th. It was CD 17 for me, I'm not sure if I'll use them again next cycle though as I found it quite stressful. I also have an app that told me i would ovulatie on the 14th so it's quite spot on..

I'm feeling a bit down today, and I feel like time passes really slowly and I'm not really succeeding in keeping distracted. It probably doesn't help that we're far away from home for another 4 weeks as my partner is finishing up a job here (we're in the French Alps) and I just really want to go home to my friends and our family.. I'm working here too (we work together) but I just feel so consumed by this whole process...

@YorkshirePeridot @Westy22 Welcome! Hope to see some dark lines for you as well soon!

YorkshirePeridot · 24/02/2024 12:01

Hi ladies, hoping to jump into this thread 👋

I'm on my second ttc cycle though I'm not entirely convinced that I ovulated in January. Currently 9dpo and given myself permission to do my first test tomorrow.

Hoping to see some bfps in this thread in the upcoming week 🙏

Westy22 · 24/02/2024 11:37

Haha I do random stuff like that @BussiBop23 , I have no more tests so can't test now till possibly early next week working all weekend so hopefully that keeps me busy 🙈

BussiBop23 · 24/02/2024 11:36

@Westy22 exciting! I'm hoping it's darker for you tomorrow!

I'm 8dpo and trying to keep my mind off testing by keeping myself busy...currently got the polyfilla out doing some very questionable DIY 🤦‍♀️😂

I tested this morning at 8/9 dpo coz im addicted, there's a faint line...the last two have been stark white...im very cautious it's early so I'm not getting excited yet 🙈 no more tests so I'm waiting it out a few days now. Only did one this morning thinking get rid of the last test and bam I could see something 🙈

How exciting!! Do you have a photo?
