Been TTC #2 for a few months with no luck. This morning I felt sicky nothing to bad, and iv been totally knackred the last few days. Is it to early to have symptoms? I still have 8 days until my Af is due. Argh hate the waiting!!

Pg symptoms usually start about ten days after ovulation (if at all).

Bit early then. Maybe I'm just looking for symptoms!

Yeah, I'm the same! The body doesn't know it's pregnant until the fertilised egg implants in the womb (about ten days after conception) and it is this that causes symptoms :)

AF is due on the 12th for me so will be testing around the same time as you! I feel the same as you, sicky and moody mainly, but I think I'm just symptom spotting and a little too hopeful!!
I hope your baby wish comes true this month ThanksThanksThanks

Some implantations can happen as early as 6dpo apparently. When I was about 8dpo I had a few days of complete exhaustion and the need to have a wee all the time. Everyone at worked joked I was pregnant because of how tired I was, I used to sit at my desk and yawn and I felt like all I wanted to do was sleep. I laughed it off, telling them I'd only ovulated just over a week ago, but Lo Behold, I got my BFP 14dpo.

Currently 10wks+3 days and the tiredness only gets worse Smile

Good luck x

EsmereldaBelle · 03/09/2013 20:26

Would be number one for me!
This week is going so slow HmmHmmHmm

pizzaqueen · 03/09/2013 22:03

I'm due on 11th too! I've had mild cramps hope af isn't coming early. Probably too early for symtoms.

I'm exhausted too but that's mostly down to my two year old.

Hi there Charotte31, Esmerelda & PizzaQ!

AF due here on the 10th - so we should all be POAS about the same time, fingers crossed for BFPs.

I am trying not to symptom spot this time around. Had myself quite convinced on Cycle#1 and was disappointed.

EsmereldaBelle · 08/09/2013 00:25

Has anyone been tempted to POAS early!? Not long to wait now SmileSmile

pizzaqueen · 08/09/2013 15:15

yes!! but I'm on holiday with no pea sticks and don't come home until Friday so will need to wait and see if I'm late.

pizzaqueen · 08/09/2013 15:16

pee* not pea obviously

Well couldn't wait did a early test and got a BFN! :(

OP posts:
KedenTTC1Cycle2 · 09/09/2013 16:16

Hello Esmerelda not yet, but absolutely itching to! I was quite disappointed when I tested early (before AF due date) in Cycle #1. So this time around I am waiting until the actual day - tomorrow!

Sorry to hear abou that Charotte. It's unbelievable how moody that negative pee stick can make one. Do look onward to the next cycle!

KedenTTC1Cycle2 · 09/09/2013 16:17

Oh and Charotte keep in mind that an early test may be BFN, but a later test could be BFP. So really until you see AF, you have a chance.

pizzaqueen · 09/09/2013 18:45

I think af got me...been spotting since yesterday Sad maybe next month.

EsmereldaBelle · 09/09/2013 22:47

Chin up girls Smile there is always next month and testing early is never 100% accurate!! Still waiting for AF due to test on the 12th but if not atleast we can all hold hands next month Thanks

KedenTTC1Cycle2 · 11/09/2013 12:03

Hello All. So I POAS on a stick yesterday and got a BFN. However, still no sign AF as of this morning (I'm pretty spot on every 26 days).

I will test again tomorrow if AF still hasn't shown. Cautiously optimistic!

Anyone else POAS yet?

EsmereldaBelle · 11/09/2013 13:02

Sorry about your BFN Keden, but don't be too down if AF still hasn't come!!
I'm still waiting too test but I had a little brown spotting in the night but all gone now HmmHmm

Charotte31 · 11/09/2013 15:18

Couldn't wait any longer and did a test but it was a BFN :( why would my bloody AF be late. It's never late! I'm totally pissed off!!

OP posts:
EsmereldaBelle · 11/09/2013 23:16

Feel your pain Charotte, had nothing except a few tiny spots of dark discharge this morning. BFN when POAS Hmm

KedenTTC1Cycle2 · 12/09/2013 02:30

Bummer....AFs here. Oh well on to the next cycle then :-)

Charotte & Esmerelda, I'm sorry to hear about your BFNs as well.

I am really hoping someone on this thread gets lucky soon!
