Anybody else in the same boat??

I'm 5dpo and I've had an ache on my right side through yesterday evening and all today
It's not painful but can't ignore it 🤣

Wondering if anyone has similar or is waiting like me 😊

@GSD2024 nooo don’t go into panic mode, enjoy the moment! I am so excited for you. Keep us updated, maybe this group may have baby dust surrounding it I really hope that I can join you this cycle. I have awful pains today and they feel like period pains 😢

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 11:15

@LoulouM12 I think today I am 8dpo! I am going to buy some of those cheap tests!

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 11:13

@Hannah4850 @Elspeth1990 @LoulouM12 I’m in full panic mode now, I didn’t expect that so haven’t even told my DH as he’s on a call! Oh god, now I’m sat at my desk trying to figure out wtf to do as I’ve got a meeting in a minute! Poker face at the ready 😂🥹💜 x

ive just caved and bought some cheap tests on my way home. I’ve just done it and I swear I can see a faint line! Can you guys see it?

I can definitely see it!!

Elspeth1990 · 08/05/2024 10:59

@Hannah4850 congratulations on your BFP!!!

LoulouM12 · 08/05/2024 10:59

@Hannah4850 congratulations!! So exciting!

@JM1997 what DPO are you? I unfortunately have loadddddsssss of tests in, going to try and forget about them... No symptoms really - BBT up nice and high which is good but I've only started logging it this cycle so not really got a handle on where is should/shouldn't be yet....

@Hannah4850 ❤️❤️❤️ yay! So happy for you!

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 10:42

@LoulouM12 you’re more than welcome! It honestly is so hard, the good thing is I can’t do a test again as I don’t have any in, which is a good thing and I am trying to make sure I don’t go and buy more!! Although I’ve a doctors appointment tomorrow and they may do a test as I’ve really bad bloating, but who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️ have you got any symptoms today??

Awe thank you @JM1997 ! This does seem such a lovely group... I'm going to try and wait until at least Saturday to test but it's so hard, I know myself and I am a bit of a testing addict... Even if it's negative I'm like 'I want to know!' 🤔

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 10:36

@LoulouM12 welcome to the group lovely!!
it is so hard to not test but also to not symptom spot and to keep yourself distracted. But you’ve joined a fantastic group of women who are here to help! Let us know if you test! I tested yesterday and got a negative but I think I tested too early, my biggest tip would be even though it is tempting maybe wait as you don’t want to get disheartened!

LoulouM12 · 08/05/2024 10:36

@Hannah4850 definite lines there today! fingers crossed! So glad your daughter is OK...

No to be honest nothing hugely different this cycle except I have been exxxxxxhhhhhausted, but that might have something to do with having run a 10k race on Sat and coming off having my daughter home with chicken pox for the week... Keeping trying to imagine my boobs are feeling tender/heavier as that was my main glaring symptom with my daughter...

Those who are testing positive - anything different you've felt this cycle? Silly to compare tho isn't it as we're all so different!

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 10:34

@Hannah4850 I am so glad that she is better today. A day off school will be perfect for her and then she can really get some rest in!
Your tests look exciting I might buy some even if I don’t use them this cycle I can use them next cycle!

Thanks ladies my daughter is fine know I've let her have the day off school to relax a bit
Welcome @LoulouM12 have you noticed any differences this cycle??

@Hannah4850 thats really interesting you had negative frers too. I swear it used to be the case that an frer would show up days before any shadow on a cheapie but that doesn’t seem to be true anymore. They must’ve changed them?!

what are your testing plans today? How are you feeling?

Yeah I always swore by FRER but apparently not anymore!
I tested again this morning and still faint but definitely darker than yesterdays 😁

5dpo today!

Hi @LoulouM12 welcome! The tww is soooo hard. I got my earliest positives on the easy at homes, so I think they’re pretty good.

@Hannah4850 Hope your little one is okay and that you can rest a bit today.

LoulouM12 · 08/05/2024 09:26

I hope your little girl is OK @Hannah4850 x

LoulouM12 · 08/05/2024 09:25

Hi ladies, been following your thread since yesterday... many congrats to those that have got BFPs!!

I am 5DPO today and the TWW is killllling me... it's so hard not to symptom spot, going to try and force myself to wait until 8DPO to test. Interesting what you guys were saying about FRERs, I have just bought some! I also have lots of the easy@home strips - do you all find those good? I notice quite a lot of people using them....

JM1997 · 08/05/2024 09:04

@chamena you are more than welcome I don’t think I could test again today with having got a very clear not pregnant on my digi yesterday, so not sure I can go through it again. I think I am going to wait until I go to the doctors tomorrow, and then maybe test on Friday! Part of me is like have I tested too early as I think I’ll have been like 7dpo or is it just not my cycle🤷🏻‍♀️ trying to stay positive but it is so hard!

chamena · 08/05/2024 08:18

@JM1997 thank you lovely. Are you testing today?
