Looking for a Mum-to-be to buddy up! I'm TTC number 1 and not had any luck so far, having a couple of months off before we start trying again. x

I know, I Know :( but it was a first response and they can detect from 6 days early can't they, and it was bfn, so I'm out :( somebody needs to get a bfp soon to cheer me up abit x

sparklesandfizz · 12/05/2015 10:30

Also tww here dtd 12 x2, 13,14,15,16,17 now cd18 planning on once more tonight for luck. Let the crazy symptom spotting begin.
Knackered and over dtd now, need more sleep so actually pleased fertile window over for this month.
Fx for lots of little maybies (see what I did there)

I've got 3 round for lunch today and then both big ones have got friends over after school. Husband working late...early night with a good book for me until he gets in then I'll dtd for luck.

Should go now baby sparkles napping and I have some serious cleaning to do. Have lovely days everyone xx

sparklesandfizz · 12/05/2015 10:33

brooke fr only detect about 30% of pregnancies 6 days before af therefore you are not necessarily out, in fact if you are pregnant it is still more likely that you test neg than pos at this stage. Have patience it will come to you.

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 11:08

brooke i'm currently fighting the urge to test! I'm so impatient but dont want to see a BFN...really trying to wait until next Tues!!

firsttimenewbie · 12/05/2015 11:10

Totally understand your frustration and impatience brooke. I am cd 24 but my cycles tend to be 31 to 32 days long. Pretty sure I didn't catch it this time so just want it to hurry up so I can get on to the next cycle. Can't think about anything else so the next couple of weeks are going to drag!!

Issie339 · 12/05/2015 12:27

sparkles I just actually laughed really loudly in the work kitchen reading your 'burning pelvis' comment, everyone at work now thinks I'm mad and also skiving...which would be correct. You've also had a good run of dtd this month, very impressive!!

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 13:24

Haha sparkles love that - 'maybies'. I'm crazy symptom spotting again, today it is peeing, i'm peeing a lot nothing to do with the 4 cups of tea

firsttimenewbie · 12/05/2015 18:51

I promised myself I would not symptom spot.......and now I am desperately trying to find symptoms because I have literally none.....nada!

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 19:34

Haha i also have a sore head :( i'm making everything into a symptom!

Brooke113 · 12/05/2015 20:34

Hope everybody has had a good day.

I'm feeling super sorry for myself. This isn't fair, these cramps are so painful, they haven't stopped all day :(

Also thought I'd tell you girls something I do, on the day Af arrives each month, I have a little cry, feel really sorry for myself and then give myself at least an hour to myself that day (which is a rarity if I do say so myself) in that hour I give my toes a lovely new colour, which definitely cheers me up abit, might sound silly, but it's what I do :)

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 20:50

Awwww brooke try not to get so down, you'll get ur BFP soon enough :) having that time to yourself sounds lovely though!

Lovelyjubbly95 · 12/05/2015 22:14

Heya hope u r all well! Jst to update that I am today on cycle day 6, had dtd the other night as af was short but that's all atm. Im 29 BTW for your records lol x

Issie339 · 13/05/2015 07:54

Hope you're feeling a bit better today brooke Flowers I'm really not looking forward to AF arriving either, it gets harder every month, but I'm keeping the faith that it will be our turn for our bfps soon

Brooke113 · 13/05/2015 08:01

I had a temp drop this morning which means Af is on the horizon, just a waiting game now.

Fx for all you ladies testing soon xx

sarah1391 · 13/05/2015 12:01

Sorry to hear that brooke

I'm too scared to test lol ordered some first response ones today as they're meant to be good

Issie339 · 13/05/2015 12:57

Symptom spotting at 4dpo- feeling a bit spaced out today, still have an aching feeling in uterus area, felt slightly sick yesterday and today in the morning. Obviously pregnant! Lols

VioletIbiza88 · 13/05/2015 13:36

Well I survived the night shifts! Swapped tomorrows night shift for a day shift on Friday as someone else wanted Friday off yay!

Brooke I'm sorry your feeling rubbish at the moment, do you always get such bad pre AF cramps? I've never had pre AF anything so I have no warning its coming, but then get terrible cramps the first two days of AF.

I think I'm 6DPO today, could be 7, nothing much to report symptoms wise that I think actually means anything. Random meaningless symptoms for fun wise, I've got a stuffy nose and Sarah also peeing a lot!

If my cycle is 26 days again like last month AF is due on Monday 18th, but my app is predicting AF due on the Thursday 21st, which gives me a 29 day cycle. So not sure when to expect it?? If it hasn't come by Friday 22nd I will buy some frer's when we do the supermarket shop on Friday after work. That way I'm definately not buying them unless AF is late. I'm now not testing at 35 days on Tuesday 26th because OH is going to be working away again from the Monday and he wants to be here if we get the opportunity to test this time. So test day is (hopefully) Saturday 23rd, when I will (hopefully) be 16DPO.

sarah1391 · 13/05/2015 14:41

violet love random symptom spotting! haha not being able to get out of bed this week can be one of mine too haha. I'd go with your app as that's what i'm doing lol i think i will test on Saturday which is 2 days before the app says AF is due but i'm expecting a BFN. fx for you! my OH is away until (approx) 22nd so i really want to wait for a bit as i wont be telling him until he is home but i just dont think i can wait that long (assuming that AF hasnt turned up by then)

firsttimenewbie · 14/05/2015 07:37

Well my crazy symptoms now include back ache (even though I have suffered with this since 14), extreme tiredness (even though I am jet lagged) and feeling sick when I smelt OH whiskey (even though it always makes me feel sick).......oh dear really not doing well on this 'relaxed approach'. Worst thing is I know this site is making my obsess more but I love it too much to give it up!

VioletIbiza88 · 14/05/2015 10:10

Morning ladies, 7DPO today and woke up at 5am after a really vivid dream then started with abdominal cramps and the feeling that AF was coming (it hasn't). It's not due till earliest Monday but more likely a week today. The cramping pain seems to have gone now but it could be on and off pain I'm not sure yet (not been up long, still recovering from nights). I've never had pre-AF cramping that has come days before AF before only cramping in the couple of hours or so before AF arrives? So I'm hopeful its not AF but worried too due to last cycle AF coming 7 days after OV. So either it is to do with AF, or its implantation related, or its a random uterus ache for no reason.

Issie339 · 14/05/2015 12:41

Sounds positive violet, fx it's implantation. I'm 5dpo today and have sore boobs and still the dull aching in uterus area- I'm trying to think if I get this every month but I can't remember (useless!)

Haha good effort firsttimenewbie you're symptom spotting like a pro! Wink

VioletIbiza88 · 14/05/2015 13:15

I hope it is Issie but no idea what that should feel like? How long it would last for etc? No spotting and no AF so far so fx'd. Keep going for a wee, when I don't need a wee, just so i can check no AF lol! Hope your dull aching is a good sign too! Just about to indulge in a nice fake coffee!

VioletIbiza88 · 14/05/2015 13:18

Issie I've just rechecked and now I'm testing on the 23rd were testing buddies! Unless of course you are planning to test earlier than next Saturday. Really hope I get my opportunity to test this month!!

Issie339 · 14/05/2015 13:26

Mmmmm, fake coffee, yummy!! Big sigh.

Yey testing buddies! I'm planning on testing on the 23rd if AF hasn't arrived by then.

Lovelyjubbly95 · 14/05/2015 15:31

Really random girls but I do believe that I am experiencing brown spotting...I'm on day 8, but period only lasted til day 4 and had dtd on day 5...
