Can I join you? I'm 25 first month of ttc no 2. Today is day 23 of my cycle though I have no idea how long it is really as only had one withdrawal bleed after the coil. I plan to test on Monday.

So...(most likely imaginary) symptoms!:
Tummy cramps since yesterday - convinced Myself it's implantationBlush, dizziness in bed last night and slightly more sensitive nipples.

I'm becoming preggozilla!

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 08:24

Hi Coffee1Sugar, I had the coil fitted aswell but waited a couple of months for things 2 settle before TTC again.
All ur symptoms sound promising and doesn't sound like u have 2 long 2 wait before testing. Fingers crossed for u Grin x

Can I join ladies?

TTC #2 first real cycle of "trying" and obsessed already Confused

I OV 21st / 22nd May < peak on CBFM & serious pain!> app says period due 7th June - ish! Realistically when do you think I can test?

Lots of luck to you all - I forgot how painful this wait was Grin

Coffee1Sugar · 30/05/2013 09:10

Id start testing on the 5th JK. I think my Af is due on the 5th so I'll start testing on Monday. I'm going to buy some superdrug tests as I've heard they're particularly sensitive.

MrsJK · 30/05/2013 09:11

Thanks coffee!

Yes I would highly recommended the SD tests - currently on offer for £3.99 for a twin pack Wink

I used them last time around & got my BFP days before my period was due! Wishing you lots of luck

Coffee1Sugar · 30/05/2013 09:13

Ooo now when you say days?! How's about 6 days before?! I'm obsessed Sad

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 09:20

I got my bfp's with both my sons at 10 dpo using Internet cheepies but I'm gona try not 2 get obsessed this time and wait til af is late (easier said than done, lol) I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of u for next week, hope wee c some nice BFP's in June Grin x

MrsJK · 30/05/2013 11:35

If memory serves me right I think it was about 5 days before hand < disclaimer > my cycles were a little out after years of being on the pill!

When u planning on holding out till coffee? The longer the better Wink ( easier said than done I KNOW!)

MrsJK · 30/05/2013 11:36

Linda - when do you plan to test? I hope to last until next week Wink

Coffee1Sugar · 30/05/2013 11:43

Fgs I caved. Just done a test. Bfn obviously. It's only day 23. Just scoffing a tube of Pringles to cheer me up. I'm a nut job.

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 11:57

Think I'll wait til at least the 9th to start testing, if I can hold out that long, lol... I know it's pointless doing it any earlier coz I'm not due af til 13th but I get a bit obsessed with it Grin

OP posts:
lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 12:03

Coffee I was like that when tryin for #2, poas every day from day 20, lol, I'm a nut job aswell Grin

OP posts:
Coffee1Sugar · 30/05/2013 12:06

Nut job buds Grin I will hold out until Monday!

But on the flip side, can I pick you lovely ladies' brains please...

My last pill was taken on 5th May followed by a pathetic withdrawal bleed on the 8th. Which date is the start of my cycle? The former would mean I'm now day 26, the second day 23.

DisneyDiva87 · 30/05/2013 12:24

How soon before af can you reliably test? My af is due on 9th so was just going to wait till then to test but if I can do it earlier then hell I'm doing it earlier.

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 13:22

Disney you can buy tests that can tell as early as 6 days before af is due Grin

And Coffee in my experience u might have 2 wait til uv had a proper period 2 track things properly, don't think a withdrawal bleed is classed as af Hmm

OP posts:
DisneyDiva87 · 30/05/2013 13:37

I'm going to try and wait till af is late a couple of days before testing. I'm pretty confident that I'm not but I really want to be.

I think the crazy is spreading, I blame you Coffee and you too Linda

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 13:43

I'm waiting til I'm late 2 (if I can) coz I drove myself nuts trying for my last baby. The crazy gets hold of u quickly and it only gets worse til u get that bfp Grin

OP posts:
Closef · 30/05/2013 14:04

Can I join? I'm on cycle day 15 but not really sure when AF is due as only recently off the pill and they are unpredictable! I think I will test on day 28 if I can hold out that long Wink

Coffee1Sugar · 30/05/2013 14:16

Woop I feel sick Grin also been having diarrhoea which according to dr google and babycentre is a result of rising progesterone. Nutjob continues Grin

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 14:18

Welcome Closef Grin I'm on cd 16 or 17 so we will prob b testing around the same time, good luck Grin x

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 14:23

Lol Coffee u r as bad as me, but I had a dodgy tummy very early on with both my boys so fingers tightly crossed for u Grin

OP posts:
DisneyDiva87 · 30/05/2013 15:30

Sounds very promising Coffee Envy The closest symptom I had was not being interested in food or even liquids yesterday. Still not a normal appetite today but least I'm guzzling the water. Any symptoms I have are more likely jet lag or exhaustion, I just got back from Florida on Monday morning and was back to work at 8am on Tuesday.

This is only my 1st cycle for my 1st baby, I hope the crazy doesn't increase exponentially each month.

Anyway I'll keep my jealous fingers crossed for you all

lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 15:38

Oh Disney it's ur 1st baby? Now that's even more exciting, I've got 2 boys, 4 and 2 but want 1 more. I hope u have lots of luck and don't have 2 try 2 hard. Sending lots of baby dust ur way Grin

OP posts:
lindamagoo · 30/05/2013 15:39

Oh and yes, the crazy does get crazier each month Grin

OP posts:
DisneyDiva87 · 30/05/2013 15:46

Thanks Linda :o)

I can't imagine how excited I'll be when I get my BFP! I'm already so excited to just be trying and thinking about POAS at the end of this cycle even if it is a BFN. Roll on 9th June!
