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&!

Oh I'm cramping aswell but its on and off whereas AF cramps turn up and stay there till I kill it with nurofen lol so not sure if that is a good sign or not

Hey pixa how was the spa weekend?
I am 6 days late, no signs of AF. 3 x BFNs though. Confused!!
So last night I have 3 separate dreams, all vivid!! In each dream I got a positive result hahaha!! Is this just a cruel joke played by my body? Or is it a premonition? x

Omg I thought i was the only one going craxy symptom spotting!
Im 6 days late for AF and iv got a reaallyy bad lower bachache, my lower abdamon feels 'weird' but not bloated. Iv got tingly boobs but nothing to bad. Iv got a cold and im full of spots which i never get. I have 5/6 headaches daily which i never get. Funny twinges in my abdamon. I get short breathed when walking up the stairs(im quite a active fit person too) toothache which my mind is saying 'thats a symptom' im offically crazy! Im cramping so bad right now its like AF is coming but the witch doesnt show!! All these syptoms to me get in my head and scream PREGNANT buuuuttt 4 BFN later im sooo unsure what the hell is happening!!

Welcome to my world EmzLou! I'm am exactly the same! 6 days late. 4 x BFN. AF showing no signs of coming. I also nearly hurled today at the smell of a cuppa tea. I want to know what's going on!! Booked docs appt for Tuesday. x

Hi Tammi :) iv just downloaded two track your period apps on my phone. Now with one app it says im going to have my fertility window on saturday to thursday and the other app says my period will start tomorrow. Thats a whole 7 days late. Im crampinh so bad so maybe it is my AF just playing with me and being late! Every twinge im like "ohh what if" lol

Hi girls, well I'm having some symptoms, feeling tired, boobs feel sensitive and I nearly passed out in a gym class, it could be because I've had my flu jab... Lol xx

Yeah I've got an app too. Been so regular since coming off the pill so this is totally bizarre. I've had no cramps but occasional twinges. I just feel so strange at the mo. Had the most ridiculous back ache today. And for the first time I've been really emotional haha! My dog looked at me all cute and I got all teary hahaha!

So i went out for food tonight with friends and throughout the meal i had thee worst cramps ever!! Felt really wet down there (sorry tmi) when i was driving home, so i thought AF was here but as i got home and went to the bathroom there was no sign pf AF just a wet patch (like water) in my underwear. (Sorry tmi again) ahhh im going insane!

Well I've had some bright red blood today although my af isn't due until a week Saturday, could this be implant bleeding?? I feel like I've made up seeing blood because I haven't had anymore since but it was definitely there, only when I wiped though.... Other than that my boobs are itchy and tingly now and again but I'm pretty sure my mind is making that up xxx

I had a random slight bleed a few days after ovulation so naturally googled it and apparently you can have of bleeding too xx implant bleed is normally only a few days but up to a week before AF is due but its still possible x

Thanks mumwannabe82, I had a quick look on google too and it did say 4-7 days. My af is very irregular so i could be due on my af earlier than I thought , maybe. Just have to see. Xxx

Its so frustrating isn't it, last month I felt like I had every symptom going then came on earlier than usual, it was like a double bitch slap lol due AF today and 14dpo tomorrow but BFN so far just hoping it takes my body a bit longer to realise its pregnant lol xx

Ah bless you, it really is hard going! Hope you get your positive soon! This month is the first month we've properly started dtd every other day. since May/June we were just seeing how it went , but kept getting negative results and I think hubby saw how upset I was so he's making more effort (he was happy dtd twice a week before we started properly trying lol!!!!!) the only other symptoms I've had is feeling dizzy at a gym class I went to yesterday and itchy boobs, but I'm not sure if it's because I had the flu jab yesterday xxx

I get itchy boobs too but I sometimes get excma on my nipples anyway so its the worst symtpom to watch for me! Although when I went for a run a week ago my stomach started manic cramping and my back hurt too so it worried me that I could be affecting a fertilised egg that I don't know is there yet x
That's lovely that's your hubby is trying to help any way he can, my bf is trying to help to so its nihat we don't feel alone in the sadness when AF arrives! Still easier talking to you nice ladies though because we can go into depth about everything lolol xx

Ha ha I agree with you there, it's nice to speak to people that are going through the same as you! Xx

I don't think I can wait any longer! AF was due today, if I'm right about the dates. My boobs feel very achy and look bigger. Yesterday I was convinced it would start this morning. But nothing. And now I'm feeling even more paranoid! I just rang DH and asked him to pick up a FR on his way home so I can test first thing in the morning if it doesn't come before then. But he couldn't comment cos he'd be overheard. And that felt rubbish. We weren't planning another child - we'd always agreed on two and our youngest is now 6. I'd be really excited if it was positive, how could I not be? And I know he'd be pleased. But I also know he'd be worrying about the practical side and disappointed that we'd have to cancel our holiday as it's end of May! So I feel strange - here I am hoping in spite of everything for a BFP while knowing he'll be hoping for a BFN because it wasn't in the plan! Does anyone else have mixed feelings like this? And is everyone else close to AF scared each time they go to the loo?

I am 1/2 days late. Had 3 bfn's so far. Poas addict. Not ttc, but the longer I have to wait, the longer I have to wonder, and the more I really want a bfp
Had no af symptoms yet this month, and normally get sore boobs at least a week before. I am also really tired all the time (to the point of having afternoon naps!) and have been feeling quite nauseas today. I've had a little bit of heartburn on and off the last few days, and the last 2 nights crazy vivid dreams!

Like I said, the longer I have to wait, the crazier I get!!!
I hope all the ladies that want bfps get them!!!

Im still waiting for my AF. Im 7 days late today and last night i really though AF was coming but still no sign of it today. Not tested since wednesday as i'll be dissapointed if its another BFN. Aghhh Iv never wanted my AF so much as i want to know whats going on. Iv had no cramping at all today so iv got no idea whats happening. Am i pregnant or just having a bitch of a cycle?!!!!!

AF arrived today after being 7 days late. I'm out this month.... Good luck to everyone else waiting for the BFPs. xx

Nooooo Tammi gutted for you!! If you have yours i reckon i'll be on the witchs hit list next :( It will be your month next month i know it baby dust to you for the month xx

Haha 2down going to the toilet scares the crap out of me everytime, you are definitely not alone there XXX

On a serious note, you said he would be pleased so don't worry too much about feeling excited and good luck xxx

Tammi so sorry you got your AF xxxx

So DS finally gets home and says he didn't leave work in time to go and get a test. But he'll get one tomorrow then I can test Sunday. Why I am in such a hurry? I nearly throttled him! He clearly has no idea what is been like waiting! So I handed over the kids for him to put to bed, and went out and got a double pack myself! They didn't have FR, hope CB is as good but I will at least wait for Fiat thing tomorrow to give it the best chance.

Tammi, I'm so sorry! I really thought you were in there. It's so cruel! Mum wannabe, thankyou! Him keyring me down over the test hasn't helped, I think it's because if it's positive he'll have to deal with the consequences whereas so far he has just blocked it out of his mind (how is it men can do that?!) so he'd rather stay in blissful ignorance for as long as possible!

Keyring? Stupid predictatext! I meant LETTING me down!
