Anyone starting their 2 week wait today ish and want to obsessive symptom spot ?

Nice positive thought Curly. I have tested with a CBD on the day before Af is due before and got a Bfp so am not holding out too much hope. However boobs are sore and no pre Af spotting tgat I would have expected to see by now.

Fingers crossed for us both

CBD only has 99 per cent accuracy when period is due - much less than that in the days before. so there's still hope jools

No period yet here...

jools

fingers crossed for Monday

Hooray for Spirael

mrsws - I actually hate First Response - have peed on a lot of them and always got a BFN, so they have unlucky associations for me.

I used a ClearBlue digi this morning, 13DPO and got "Not Pregnant", much to my amazement and disappointment. Still no sign of AF - although not due till late Monday, I normally get a bit of spotting and there has been nothing at all. Boobs are still very tender, but don't feel as full as they did a couple of days ago.

I'm guessing this has been a very very strange cycle but not successful - maybe an early implantation failure ?? If AF isn't here by Tuesday, I'll test again but I'm kind of resigned to the fact she must be on her way. I don't feel too bad considering - I think being busy at work and packing for hols on Wednesday is taking my mind off it. Am already plan next cycle's campaign - I'll get back on CD9 or 10 and hopefully DP will be pleased to see me

CONGRATULATIONS Spirael

I did a first response this morning and got a BFN. I was convinced it would be BFP - I have a 2yo DS and am constantly trying to remember the sypmtoms. Last nights trawl through google for 2nd preg symtpoms left me even more convinced. Not had tender breasts this time - but have had the tingle I used to get before I BF my son along the the sore nipples and full feeling. Also read that second time symptoms are often not as intense or can happen sooner which would exlain my carpul tunnel! So all was looking good till this morning.

Not really due AF till Tuesday I think! (not been off pill for long and only had one cycle since stopping) so Anyone with a story about how FR are pants and they lie would be greaty apriciated!

Good luck to any1 else testing today!

Told You!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

See you on May a/n perhaps? xx

Well, I guess you can't argue with the 'Pregnant' on the CBD! 1-2 weeks apparently, which makes sense given that I'm fairly sure I implanted last Monday now.

Here's the stats, in case they're useful to anyone, or anyone is particularly interested.

I've been temperature checking each morning and I'm pretty sure I ovulated on approximately day 14. DTD a few days before, during and after to make sure the whole period was covered.

Had what can only be described as period pains on 9 days after ovulation, that's exactly what they felt like. Presumably that must have been the moment of implantation. They lasted for most of the day, but there was no bleeding.

Since then, I've had no further symptoms and I still have nothing at the moment! So I guess early symptoms aren't necessary in the slightest. Just to give some hope to people who haven't felt a thing during their 2ww.

Anyway... The test yesterday was 14 dpo and I got a faint line. Then the BFP on the CBD was 15 dpo - on the day AF is due.

I hope that might be helpful to someone!

Excellent news spir. Might not be around for your update but I'm certain it will be good.

Still no period - jools you certainly appear to be our next best hope at the moment!

Good luck!

I keep coming back to check

Well stil no pre AF spotting

I've put jeans on for the first time since the Summer and had to take them off again, as my abdomen does NOT like the pressure, even though the jeans aren't tight.

I splashed out on 2 ClearBlue Digis - may use one tomorrow if I don't see any spotting, but may wimp out and wait till Monday. Fertility Friend tells me I shouldn't test till Tuesday (15DPO)

jools when are you testing? I'm on tenterhooks.... Your symptoms just keep getting stronger...

Hooray for you Spirael how exciting - aline is a line, and it's more of a line than i have at the mo so hooray for you.

just waiting, waiting and more waiting

I now have really strange stabbing pains in my left boob - quite uncomfortable !!

Oooh ooh ooh
Spirael even a faint 2nd line counts.

Congratulations xxx

Fingers crossed Spirael and commiserations to Curly

Not testing today - I only have Tesco cheapies in the house and they won't be sensitive enough. I convinced myself last night that it was all in the mind and AF was on her way, but today I think it could go either way - just keeping an eye out for the normal pre AF spotting that would normally start this afternoon and, of course, hoping I don't find any

Morning all! Took a Tesco cheapie test this morning as planned. There's a really, really faint second line on it... I don't think I'm imagining it because even my DH with his awful eyesight can make it out!

It is really faint though, so I'm not entirely convinced it's a BFP yet... Though I think this might mean breaking out one of my Clear Blue digitals tomorrow morning to try and get a confirmation either way.

Temperature is also still climbing... Reached 37.0 C this morning, which is a new record! But then I was quite warm overnight.

Will report back tomorrow morning with the results of the digital.

Looks like I won't be getting this weekend's good result - another no today. So waiting to hear from you jools and spi

Joolsiam - I am going on holiday tomorrow but will be checking for news! I only got a BFP this time on the Sunday after testing on the Thursday. and

Hi All

Fingers crossed for you Jools, sounds really promising for you

Well it's day 28 for me today and I succumbed and tested and.......... BFN. It was a boots own brand but I was sure that if I am it would have shown up.

I had to go to the docs this am to discuss my thyroid which is underactive and my hair has started falling out again. I mentioned that I am ttc and said that I am on CD28 but last cycle was 38 days long, she explained to me that it's the length of time before ov that varys from woman to woman and that based on last cycles length I should have ov'd at around cd 24 and not 14 which is when I thought I did.

I feel a complete idiot in not understanding this before, plus I may have buggered up my chances for this month. Just as well we have been having sex for fun as well as ttc

will just have to wait it out to see if AF shows in the next week and then on holiday for 2 weeks so would really like to be sure before I go.

Thats my little moan over

Good luck to all testers this weekend
Kaylo please do hang around, your support and positivity is very very welcome

Curly Fingers crossed for you too

I'm not sure yet... I have a few Tesco cheapies that I might have a go with, assuming AF doesn't show up before then. I think I'll be saving my digitals until I'm a bit more convinced!

If nothing else, I figure the cheap ones give me practice at not dropping the thing down the toilet. I'm never quite awake first thing in the morning!

another quick visit before I go out for the day with work. cycles post pill (all two of them!) were 34 and 28 days, so not quite sure when due. I have a few cheapies so might test on them till period shows - holding back my other CBD for a special occasion!

don't give up hope yet spi. Are you going to test or just wait for AF?

Morning all. That's certainly sounding hopeful for a BFP soon, Jools. Fingers crossed for you!

Nothing happening here at all, no symptoms in the slightest, so I'm guessing it's not happened again this month. Ah well, at least with my relatively short and regular cycle then AF should strike within the next 48 hours or so and I can stop driving myself slowly insane!

I might go and mark out my calendar for next month in preparation, for the nights DH needs to be around and available for duty.

Hi curly - How are you? When is AF due?

xx

Jools I'm gonna keep checking - or maybe I'll see you on Ante-Natal?

xx

Thanks for the encouragement Kaylo

I am 11DPO today and remember testing with a clearblue digi last Sept at 13DPO and getting a result. All is not lost yet by any means

I have those too!!!
I thought maybe I was imagining the increased saliva but theres definitely more of it!!

It's sounding so good - I can't wait to see how you get on

btw - First Response doesn't always work, neither does CB - I didn't know this but apparently it depends on your LP cos it varies between people. I got a BFN both days before my BFP. (and have tested everyday since.. just to make sure you know!)

I wish you the best of luck - I'm confident for you - it's sounds spot-on!
