Manic symptom watching!

[Babymamababy]

Hi all,

This is a place for all manic symptom watchers to share stories and convince themselves they have each other's symptoms! Nothing like a healthy dose of mania to ease the real anxiety and worry ttc can cause!

I myself have just recently started ttc and have seen myself go from a fully rounded adult to a manic symptom checker.
So today's symptom is a pinchy like pain in my left lower abdomen...could be wind...but no...as a manic symptom checker...I'm convincing myself it's a sign of implantation!
I will share a new one everyday. Please add your own...I want to have them too&!

AF has not shown despite feeling like it was just starting.
I was sick this morning sobim feeling optimistic.
I have a stick and I'm not afraid to use it. ( well abit afraid perhaps)

Aww iniquity deep breaths and big smiles and let us know how you get on when you do x

Shall we start a list?
beachmummy3 dpo ?8

sounds good to me
beachmummy3 dpo ?8
kelbri29 dpo between 17 and 19

I can't really give a definate answer due to cycles being up the creek!

As an example: today I got EWCM and so used an opk which was indeed positive. Apparantly temping is the best indicator and I've had no rises, so it's possible I'm still waiting.

I'm on cycle day 38. May have to get back to you about dpo! :s

Bfp for me

Yay well done iniquity!! How many dpo are you & which brand did you test with?

Congratulations iniquity AF showed tonight, so dont know whats going on with me, still feel sick so thinking im sick, maybe thats why im 5 days late now

Sorry to hear that kelbri I'm currently waiting for the pink to turn white on my ic, can only see control line atm, not expecting to even see a faint bfp. Symptoms gone here so maybe a bug here too x

Well that's new... Strong control line on ic.... Clearly visible indent line where I'd assume bfp line would go (I hate those indents) which wasn't of any colour whatsoever.... But on the side of the test (not the front where you read from) there was a strong pink mark next to the indent.... Any ideas please?
Will use tesco one tomorrow morning though not a clue how sensitive they are. Will use frer Boxing Day at 11dpo (with dc3 I got faint bfp on ic at 11dpo).....

Congratulations Inquinity!

Sorry Beachmummy, my only advice would be to retest.

I did a retest this morning and had another very, extremely, faint line. I don't actually know what to believe as DH can't see it! Posted it on canyouseealine and I have had the majority of yes votes but that still doesn't make it real. However, AF hasn't shown today which is a blessing. Will take each day as it comes but I really want to start getting excited.

pixa sounds very exciting!!!!! Maybe go out boxing day or day after to get frer or cb digital?
I retested on (probably well diluted & not held long enough) a tesco one. Bfn. Don't think I am now. But that's prob for the best.

Eeek, let us know how your test comes alone (don't worry, lots of men don't see, or don't believe v.faint lines) :-)

Merry Christmas all!

I think I was 15 dpo and I used a Lloyd's pharmacy one. I was trying for a while.
To be honest I had less symptoms than the non pregnant months. The only thing different was hot flushes bordering on menopausal which had me worried.

Congrats iniquity perfect Christmas pressy!!

Bfn here again, I'm even imagining (they aren't there) bfp faint lines now.... Have decided tomorrow fmu I'll use my last frer & leave it after that, no more poas

Bfn, I'm out....
Best wishes to everyone still in the 2ww

AF arrived yesterday, disappointed but we are okay. If anything that little glimmer has just made us more excited about our future.

Sorry to hear that Beachmummy.

Let's hope for some BFPs in the New Year.

I thought I was 11dpo today, but turns out I'm 10dpo. I got a bfn this morning which I expected as it is that bit early to test.

I've not had CM since ovulation, but today I've got quite a bit of wattery cm.
My boobs are a bit tender and I've been down and tearful for a few days which I do get in the week before AF, but probably exasperated by it being Christmas.

Purplelilly - any good news? X

Happy New year!!!!
So resolution was to not obsess over symptoms but not even out of January and have failed....CD18 and had +ve OPK a few days ago already thinking that no symptoms = future BFP! Aaahh! Crazy baby lady alert!

So glad to read this, I thought I was the only mad person symptom spotting.

My period is due around e 19th, aahhhhh the waiting!!

CD18, luckily my cycles are only around 26/27 days - I hate the 2ww. If we don't conceive this month I would be tempted to by some ovulation sticks, but I am trying hard not too.

My AF due around then to helensburgh so fingers crossed for us both!
Go for the OPKs Pixa it will give you a bit of a boost or see a line and at let you know when you need to do the deed

I'm ttc #1, in the first real cycle. AF due around the 17th. Have been eating a lot of tapas down here in Spain, so I'm likely just bloated from all the food. Really trying not to get my hopes up.

Although.. inexplicably, my face has cleared up.

Well I think I'm out for this month, major PMT symptoms started yesterday.

Boooooo.

Ah well if F is here by fri he wine can be opened at least
