Hi there, I ov either on the 28th of this month or a couple days later, I'm not sure if I am 9dpo or 14 dpo at this point but I'm guessing more towards 9dpo so ... With that my symptoms have been as following :
6 or 11dpo - slight nausea, headaches, peeing a lot, bloating, constipation, tiredness, little bit of white cm
7 or 12dpo - woke up feeling nauseous and that carried on with public transport but haven't been sick, woke up with lower leg cramps too. Feeling pregnant. Boobs are still swollen and still bloated. Cm has returned to clear and stretchy consistency Took a test but BFN
8 or 13dpo - symptoms easier today, feeling tired and breasts have been fluctuating a bit in size but no tenderness, had more cramping and sharp abdominal pains than normal but no bleeding. Felt a bit nauseous eating salted crisps but other than that not much nausea.
Still stuck with the clear stretchy cm
9 or 14dpo - had more cramping today in the morning and still feeling extremely thirsty and needing the loo a lot. Nipples have been slightly tender but only for a short while. I'm now basically all dried up down there, no sign of any cm.... Good or bad sign Hmm????

I'm trying so hard to resist the testing urge but I bought 4 asda own early response tests yesterday and it's so tempting. Would tomorrow (10 dpo) be too early!? af is due Wednesday or Thursday as far as I know so that would be 12 or 13dpo

Shall I call you psychic Sabzh lol! I'm sure it will happen for you too.

sabzh · 23/03/2016 21:50

Haha Smile and thanks Wink ive booked in to see the GP in two weeks hopefully because to tell them im pregnant and not because their is something wrong with me! Im pretty sure they will make me feel like a complete idiot for going in as drs normally do!

AnxiousBetty · 23/03/2016 22:14

Good luck Jod! I bet you'll get your bfp way before me! I got a load more white cm today and feeling very emotional and moody and light cramps twice today... Really don't understand what's going on with my body I just want to know one way or the other! Confused

Footprints when are you testing again?

I'm hoping it happens quickly. My youngest is just 3 and I'd like another before he turns 4.

WickerHearts · 24/03/2016 06:12

Betty if you're still getting CM that sounds like a good sign Smile that's was what made me sure I was pregnant! Don't give up hope lovely Smile xx

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 07:29

I will test later today as in the night I felt hot with tummy cramps so am convinced the evil AF will show up any minute. Had banging headache all yesterday too- all very menstrual I'm sure.

Today will be cd36. 14dpo so would be about right. I've never had a long cycle before as was due 9 days ago but the late ovulation at cd 23 seems to have extended the cycle.

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 07:30

If no AF by 12 noon I'll test.

Jod1985 · 24/03/2016 07:51

Keeping us in suspense! Fx for you!!

AnxiousBetty · 24/03/2016 11:32

I hope so wicked, I just feel deflated by all the bfn I've had, it's just convincing me more and more than af is coming Sad I'm waiting until Wednesday next week to test again as if af hasn't come by then then I may need to look at where on earth mrs witch went Shock

How are you feeling wicker? Xx

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 12:05

BFN! :(

Period pains but no AF as yet. Expect it is coming though...:( cramps more intense than what I had in the week. Unless a miracle happens now I'm very doubtful it will happen this cycle.

Anyone else test today? Fingers crossed for you ladies xx

WickerHearts · 24/03/2016 12:14

Betty fingers crossed for you lovely Smile do you have any other symptoms?
Yes I'm doing ok thank you, haha, still don't think it's actually sunk in yet! Just feeling very tired and boobs feeling very sore.
Footprints, if you're early stages is best to test with FMU Smile

Xx

Jod1985 · 24/03/2016 12:15

Boo Footprints. I really thought it would be BFP for you. I'm shattered today, like unusually tired. My eyes are stinging. I wonder if side effect from getting coil removed?! I won't know when to test. I am waiting for a sign lol! A period or a sign of ovulation. Hope the latter comes first and prevents the period!

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 12:29

Wicker- what is FMU?
Really don't think so now though , deflated,& just keep checking for AF. Think I got to move on from it this month and start thinking positives for next. Just want AF to arrive pronto so I can let go of any hope I had. Annoying when you in limbo with the AF pains. I have clear CM still cramps and bloated tummy. :(
Are u feeling sick yet Wicker? Hope it doesn't hit you bad. Xx

Jod- hope u get some good signs so you know where u are in your cycle.

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 12:31

Betty,

Know how u feel - these BFN's are painful.
Ruins your mood for the day.
Yes I feel now I'm wondering where the AF is too? Why can't it be simple!?

AnxiousBetty · 24/03/2016 12:34

Well my cramps seem to have subsided and I have maybe one mini cramp a day but saying that I am way more tired and it's come on quite suddenly, my nipples are still sore and bbs feel swollen and heavy, they've never ever been like this before it's been 2 weeks and they're still sore and sensitive Confused who knows what's going on with me!?

I'm glad you're okay! Have you been to the doctors about it yet?

Oh I'm sorry footprints! Just stay positive and wait a few days and test again! I hope you get your bfp!

Do you have a plan of when you're going to test again? I'm waiting till next week.
Wish it was simple! OH said why can't you just wake up one morning and have a flashing red pregnant sign on your belly! Haha GrinGrin

OP posts:
Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 12:45

Yes a flashing sign would be betterSmile

Well if no AF show today/ tomorrow I'm going to wait until Saturday.

My friend who is a midwife, she says some people have excess water in their urine and low hcg, so some don't show up until at least 7 days late. She says my symptoms sound good but unfortunately mimic the dreaded AF too. I came off the Yasmin pill only in Jan so it could be a mess up of cycle.

WickerHearts · 24/03/2016 18:27

Footprints, first morning urine Smile the pregnancy hormone is always stronger in your first wee of the day Smile

I know what you mean, if AF is on her way you'd rather her just turn up so you can stop wondering and get round to trying again.

I had been feeling nauseous around dinner time and had been a little off my food. Don't seem to get that anymore, so hopefully it has passed already.

Betty your symptoms sound just like mine! Hope it is BFP for you!!

Xx

raddersmrs · 24/03/2016 18:31

AF has come for me two days early ... Least I can move on now xx

Footprints1 · 24/03/2016 20:09

Oh no RaddersMrs. So sorry, think I'll be joining you on the next cycle. Maybe we will get bfp next month. Hang in there.. XxThanks

Glad you are getting on ok wicker xx

Still no AF, but massive feeling it's on the way. Had to have a glass of prosecco just to cheer me up.

AnxiousBetty · 24/03/2016 21:01

Oh no radders! At least you can move on now and look forward to next months cycle and try again xx

That's filled me with some hope then wicker! I am feeling a bit weird and queasy today and just had the first bad lot of cramps for a few days and still more white cm today xx

OP posts:
raddersmrs · 24/03/2016 21:11

Really got my fingers crossed for you Betty and all the others! Will still be looking to see how you're all getting on.

We will be taking a more relaxed approach next month as due date will be around Christmas which isn't ideal but at same time not going to prevent it xx

WickerHearts · 24/03/2016 21:42

White CM is a good sign Smile fingers crossed!! Xx

AnxiousBetty · 24/03/2016 21:44

Wicker did your libido go down at all? Xx

OP posts:
WickerHearts · 24/03/2016 22:02

Yes I guess it did. We haven't done the deed since conception Confused not only because of that, also because stupidly I'm worried about doing it so early on. We'll give him/her a chance to settle in properly first I think Wink xx
