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

Also been quite constipated Hmm sorry...tmi!xx

Footprints1 · 25/03/2016 07:37

I feel I don't want to do at the mo, until I know what is going on! Hmm

Hot in the night, convinced I had my AF but nothing this morning. Test was BFN on my first urine.

Today I'm 15dpo

wicker my hubby has a weird phobia of DTD when I'm PG. Hes afraid in later months of feeling the baby move when we are in the act and at the beginning I am worried like you. Are you taking iron?

WickerHearts · 25/03/2016 09:03

It's strange isn't it, I'm sure it is absolutely fine, just so worried at the moment that something is going to go wrong Confused
I am taking pregnacare, which I think does have iron in yes xx

Jod1985 · 25/03/2016 09:46

Well that explains the constipation. Pregnacare often has that side effect

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 11:40

Well this morning my boobs are feeling sore (and swollen as usual) as well as my nipples and I've had a couple more mini cramps and had to get up to go to the loo during the night ....

Because I don't know if I'm pg, OH and I have dtd a few times but starting to wonder if I am pg then we should stop?

My libido has reduced a lot in the past week which is strangeHmm

I really thought af was going to come last night though but nothingConfusedHmm

Betty how many DPO now?

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 14:42

I'm not entirely sure because I've got all my dates mixed up so I'm kind of just waiting for af

OP posts:
AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 17:41

Had a look and I could be anything from 11 dpo to 16 dpo but still had no bfp. Thinking my body just isn't right still after coming off the pill maybe xx

OP posts:
Footprints1 · 25/03/2016 18:10

I'm thinking exactly that for me. Had AF cramps but no AF and no BFP. When did you come off the pill Betty?

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 18:51

I came off in January so it's only been a couple of months, maybe my hormones are just everywhere xx

OP posts:
sabzh · 25/03/2016 19:13

I think im out too. No AF. No BFP although I havent tested. But i really dont think its happening this month.

Dont worry ladies next month will be! Thats if i ever come on!! Xx

Footprints1 · 25/03/2016 19:52

betty, I too came off pill in Jan.

That's it, we all just sitting here waiting for our AF's now! How frustrating Hmm

Period cramps eased off now - don't know what is going on? Just trying to work out next cycle, but impossible without the AF!!

sabzh · 25/03/2016 21:04

Im not feeling myself today...stomach feels wierd and got a headache and soo tired. Got a poorly baby to deal with now so dont know how i will do this tonight!

Going back to previous messages, me and DH dtd when i was pregnant and it wasnt as worrying as i thought. X

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 21:19

Hopefully are bodies aren't just playing is about and something good really will come out of it sooner or later!
Do you ladies know when you're testing again?

OP posts:
Footprints1 · 25/03/2016 21:23

Oh no hope u feel better soon sabzh.
I felt like that since Tuesday, headache better today though. Can't work out if I feel hungry, sick, bloated or what? Had to swap my tight jeans for stretchy leggings as my tummy was hurting.

Think all this stress of waiting has exhausted us all. Hope u sleep well. X

sabzh · 25/03/2016 21:47

I think it has exhausted us all out! I might test tomorrow but nervous to do it though x

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 21:56

I hope you feel better too sabzh!
I'm the same. One Second I'm hungry and then when I think of food I feel just sick. And I'm almost constantly bloated Sad

I hope we all sleep well tonight. I'm aching but last night was a restless and very sleepless one!
My boobs have been sore today like they are bruised which they haven't been until now, it has just been my nipples until today but they feel tender, but I haven't noticed any more white cm today and I don't know if that's a bad sign. Still feel exhausted but very little cramps.

How are all your symptoms? Xxx

OP posts:
sabzh · 25/03/2016 22:02

Thanks Footprints and Betty.
Betty your symptoms sound promising, when do you think you will test?
X

sabzh · 25/03/2016 22:23

Totally unrelated but do any of you wonder what each of us look like etc?

WickerHearts · 25/03/2016 22:36

Keeping an eye on this thread still after getting my BFP, looking forward to hearing how everyone gets on...keeping my fingers crossed for all of you ladies.

Haha yes I kind of wondered I guess, how old are we all just out of interest? I'm 29.

Xx

sabzh · 25/03/2016 22:51

So nice of you Wicker x

I'm 33... I think lol always lose track Grin

AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 23:06

I hope so but who knows .... Had a very weird thing happen just now, went to the loo, got a bit queasy and sicky, then took my bra off and my boobs felt ridiculously heavy and hard and swollen and tender as well as my nipples and then I had a hot flush!? 
I'm 26 btw Grin xx

OP posts:
AnxiousBetty · 25/03/2016 23:08

Oh and I had supper bad cramps for like 2 minutes and now I feel perfectly normal!

I don't know when to test again as I tested Wednesday and got a bfn!!
Really not sure what I'm waiting for, sometimes I feel like af is coming and other times I don't and feel normal ... My body is everywhere!
I think I will test next Wednesday xx

OP posts:
Footprints1 · 25/03/2016 23:10

I'm 38. Got two boys 6 & 8.

Feels nice chatting to peeps in the same boat. Have only told one friend that we are trying as we wanted it to be a surprise when it happens, but so glad I have you ladies to compare symptoms & help keep positive! It's very encouraging Smile

My boobs hurt today, not painfully just ache - first time so far.. But they do usually feel like that also with AF. Betty- no cm today either!
Just headaches, bloating etc..

Yeah been wondering what yee all look like! Lol Grin
