Hi!
I need some tww buddies!
I think I ovulate around a weekago so I have one more week until AF is due! (Used preseed this month)
I'm not crazy into symptom spotting but I'm pretty sure something's going on. I feel like I'm getting a cold and have been having cramps and nausea!

Hi guys new to this board.

I'm a mum of one to my 3 year old son who was born 2 months perm weighing 2lb 11oz. As you can imagine it was a scary time and have only just recently felt like I'm ready to have another child. The first time around we got pregnant literally the first time we dtd! I have pcos so had irregular periods. I only found out at 5 weeks when I had really painful boobs.

So now I had my lmp on 3/1 and they have been more regular since I had the depo almost 2 years ago. I've worked out roughly based on a 'normal' 28 day cycle (which I don't know if that's how long mine is I would ovulate on the 20/01. This is only month one ttc so a bit lost and not done opk or temps etc. So if I ovulated the 20th I'm 11dpo. Since 6dpo I had twinges/cramps on my r hand side. Then at 8dpo onwards I've felt really sick and full struggling to eat much. I tested early this am with the super drug sensitive test and got bfn. Since then (whether I'm making it up as I've really been symptom spotting the cramps have increased greatly still feel nausea exhaustion and felt really wet down there today (tmi) that I keep going to the lop thinking af starting. Do you guys think I'm out this month? Do you think I'm making up the symptoms as its my first month trying? Any advice is appreciated as feel like I'm going mad!

JoMalones · 31/01/2016 21:49

Lovely BFP MrBensMrs!

CakeAndChocolate · 01/02/2016 06:22

Well AF still hasn't shown up. I've had 2 days of brown spotting when I would normally get half a day at most. Of course now I'm wondering and hoping if it is implantation spotting (even though I've never had this in my previous pregnancies). It's a bit of a headfuck and I'm expecting AF to have arrived every time I go to the loo.

CakeAndChocolate · 01/02/2016 06:24

Hi Trying and welcome. I have no idea I'm afraid, I guess all you can do is wait another couple of days and test again. Good luck!

MrBensMrs · 01/02/2016 07:01

Hi trying agree with Cake wait a few weeks and try again - so much easier said than done, longest 2 weeks of my life!!

JoMalone thanks Smile

cake praying its Implant bleeding for you and af stays away to be replaced by a bfp! X

Tryingtowait · 01/02/2016 10:26

Congrats to all bfp so far! The waiting is driving me mad! Wish there was a way you could find out sooner :( 12dpo today, but not tested as tested yesterday trying to wait until weds/Thursday

natalier86 · 01/02/2016 10:52

Hi guys, I'm new to this thread and new to Mumsnet in general but need somewhere to vent/ get advice. I'm currently in my TWW on cycle #1 of TTC baby #1. I was expecting months of trying but am now on 14 DPO and have had 3 faint BFPs on internet cheapie tests and 1BFP on a Clearblue digital (1-2 weeks). All I've done since is read about chemical pregnancies though and cannot relax as AF is not due until tomorrow and I'm just so scared that something is going to go wrong. I've read that 50-60% of pregnancies are chemical and don't stick and I'm so scared this will happen to me. I've had lots of symptoms- sore breasts, creamy CM, cramping, fatigue, mood swings, but all of these could also be PMS symptoms so they're not putting my mind at rest any. I know I should be happy with my BFP but all I can do is panic that AF is going to come along and spoil it! Any advice or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated as I'm so new to all of this :)

Kellz92 · 01/02/2016 11:10

Cake hoping its implantation!!

MrBens Congratulations!!

Trying Welcome, give it a few days!

Natalie Welcome, try not go on Dr Google, as it will make you fear the worst. If its a true BFP (Which with the amount you have id say deffs) then AF wont show. Try not stress and enjoy your pregnancy. Congrats btw.

Well im 6dpo. Still feeling really nauseous. Still able to eat, but feeling horrendous after, thats been a week almost. It doesnt feel like a bug. maybe its just the hormonal change, as it started around the time i got my peak

natalier86 · 01/02/2016 11:58

Thanks Kellz92. I'm trying really hard not to panic and stay away from 'Dr Google' but easier said than done! All my tests (except CB digital) have been quite faint lines so that's why I'm panicking and have read lots about people that have got BFPs before AF was due but then AF came. I guess I'm just struggling to let myself believe this could be it and get my hopes up too much!

I totally feel your pain with the symptom spotting- the TWW is a devil for that and suddenly everything becomes a possible pregnancy symptom! If it helps at all, my first sign that made me think I was pregnant was random waves of nausea that I had never really had before. I also had a really weird symptom of being able to feel my pulse really strongly in my fingertips! Fingers crossed that your symptoms are baby related and that you get a BFP soon. My biggest advice would be to hold off with testing for as long as possible though; I became obsessed and tested every day since 8DPO and, even though I got my first BFP on 11DPO, I'm now driving myself mental waiting to see if AF comes or not. The longer you wait now the easier it will be I think :)

Belle8 · 01/02/2016 13:12

Hi,
Could I join? I'm on Cycle 8 going slowly crazy stooped to an all new 'crazy' last month waiting for AF / BFP over Christmas and new year officially scaring the shit out if my husband. I seriously don't know how much longer I can keep putting myself through this it's so bloody difficult. Not helped by all my closest friends falling pregnant at the drop if a hat. Of course I'm pleased for them but it just makes me cry after meeting up with them. I'm about 6/7dpo I DTD 2 days running up to my positve OPK and then the day of the positive and day after, that surly means I have a chance this month? No signs what so ever yet though so feel this hope starting to fade away Confused
Sorry for the crazy long post, hope you girls understand! Xx

natalier86 · 01/02/2016 13:30

You're not going crazy, Belle8, you're just TTC! It makes the most sane people go insane!!
And in my experience the best thing to do is save your 'crazy' outbursts for on here rather than on your OH as men don't get it! I haven't told my hubby about half of the OPK and PTs I've done or he'd go mental at me!

As far as symptoms go, I certainly wouldn't count yourself out just yet as many don't see any symptoms and still get their BFP.

You've done plenty of BDing and that's the best thing you can do!

Fingers crossed for you :)

Kellz92 · 01/02/2016 13:50

I know Natalie! Fx that everything will be fine for you :)

I had sickness from ovulation with my daughter, however at the time i didnt know as we werent trying and we found out 2 weeks after the wedding, so i put it down to wedding stress. I was throwing up on my wedding day with would have been around ovulation time. which is when i started feeling sick this cycle. But trying not to get hopes up, however this is the only time since TTC that ive had this symptom. Will have to wait and see.

Belle, Im on the same cycle as you, also about 6dpo. I dtd same days so hoping i have a chance. I know girls fall pregnant with no symptoms!! Dont count yourself out for that reason. Everything crossed for you

MrBensMrs · 01/02/2016 14:11

Natalie I had the exact same! Af was due Saturday and still no show and two faint BFPs and one dark one! I am now worried about early miscarriage before the 12 week scan - it's a bloody minefield ;(

All I can offer are hugs and reassuring hand throwing in the air over how out of our hands it all is ;(

(Bough a clear blue test and googling prices for a 7 week scan as I type!!!)
