Anyone testing Easter weekend?

Af is due Easter Monday and I definitely won't cave and test early, I promise! Anyone with me? Anytime from Good Friday counts as an Easter Bfp Grin

Symptom spotting here too. I am so tired tonight. Desperately trying to hang on till 9pm so it's a bit more of an acceptable time to go to bed but I am fighting to keep my eyes open

I'm symptom spotting like crazy here.. Only 4-5 dpo, but I have a weird full/crampy/AF type feeling. Trying not to think about it too much as you know what it's like, you convince yourself only for a BFN at the end of the month!

Congrats kitkat!

Tess - Ovia is telling me to test on Sat. AF is due anytime between Sunday and Tuesday. I've got shortish cycles (24-27 generally) so don't want to test too early as I don't think it would show.

Ghost - I've been feeling like that for a few days now. Fingers crossed that's a good sign.

Penguins - hopefully we'll be queuing up to jump on board that bus.

thisisbloodyridiculous · 21/03/2016 21:17

When you say Ovia is telling you to test - where does it tell you? Can't see anything on mine about when to test Hmm

LuckyBlackKitty · 22/03/2016 06:43

On the main home screen (using it on mobile so don't know if different on a laptop).
Underneath your cycle day it should tell you how many days until you test.

thisisbloodyridiculous · 22/03/2016 07:07

Thanks luckyblackkitty it doesn't say that on mine! How odd!

LuckyBlackKitty · 22/03/2016 07:13

That's weird! To be fair, I have been on there a while. Maybe they updated it and that function was scrapped. I not very good at installing updates.

TessWess · 22/03/2016 11:22

Morning all!
How's everybody feeling?
I'm now 7DPO, still having vivid dreams, light cramps since last night and a temp drop this morning. Hoping it's implantation rather than AF making her journey of doom to come get me! Definitely falling asleep quicker in the evening too...
Anyone else got symptoms report?? xx

Parney · 22/03/2016 14:41

Barely any symptoms to report here, patiently waiting to test though! Think I'm about 8 dpo, ovia says to test Saturday! I made a decision not to buy any until then as I would definitely POAS too early 😖.. Ovia does seem excited that my CM is 'creamy like school glue' and says if it stays like this it could be a sign! Tmi! Experiencing the occasional light cramping, but could be in my head.

thisisbloodyridiculous · 22/03/2016 15:37

Please tell me this is a symptom! I've had really crazy levels of forgetfulness - I'm a dog walker and today I've forgotten to drop off one dog & then twice I've got to a customer's house and realised I've forgotten the key! So had to go home to pick up a key. Absolutely ridiculous I've never done anything like this before. Just hoping it's a symptom and I'm not going prematurely senile Hmm

Parney · 22/03/2016 16:35

Baby brain??!!! I've found my thoughts wandering a lot lately though, since we started TTC and have become quite distracted.

Penguinepenguins · 22/03/2016 17:03

That started to hit me about 8/9dpo... It's now in full swing...

I am like an elephant never forget anything.

thisisbloodyridiculous · 22/03/2016 18:03

penguin I'm 9 dpo ... Shock must not read too much into this! Confused

LuckyBlackKitty · 22/03/2016 19:12

I've had a loss of appetite since yesterday afternoon. Now it's probably because I've got an awful cold/cough/fluey bug but after furious stalking of Dr Google it is most definitely a sign!

Mrsmulder · 22/03/2016 19:14

I think I am going to be the first one out Sad just started bleeding on cd 23. Quite short for me but coil only taken out last month so probably that. Hey ho, Wine for me this Easter

TessWess · 22/03/2016 19:21

Sorry to hear that mrsmulder 😔 At least a short cycle means cracking on with the next one quicker. Assume you are in full flow? Not just a bit of implantation bleeding?

Mrsmulder · 22/03/2016 19:30

Not full flow yet, just when I wipe (tmi - sorry) just get the feeling that it's af, I have no symptoms and I have never had implantation bleeding before. I suppose I will know by tomorrow for definite

AskPrayHope · 22/03/2016 21:17

Hi all, I'm hoping I can join?

I think my AF is due Good Friday (but who knows as my recent cycles have been strange!)

I don't even know when I O'd this month as I ran out of CB ov sticks after 5 Days of highs. So my guess is I may have O'd CD 21, 22 or 23... Or I may not have at all Envy

Hoping Easter will be lucky for everyone Shamrock

TessWess · 22/03/2016 22:05

FX for you Mrsmulder, update us tomorrow.
Welcome AskPrayHope! Have you had any promising symptoms? When are you planning to test if AF doesn't show this week? This has been a lucky thread so far, hoping to see lots more BFPs! xx

KitKat1985 · 23/03/2016 08:07

Thank you for the congrats ladies. Smile MrsMulder sorry to hear that AF got you. Hopefully next month will be lucky for you. Will be hanging around here as I want to see a few more Easter BFPs. xx

AskPrayHope · 23/03/2016 14:20

Hi TessWess,

I've not really noted anything promising unfortunately (I think partly as I don't want to get my hopes up & be let down)

I have no OPKs or PTs in the house as I vowed not to use them any more as I was getting obsessed.
So I will probably test once my period is late... (fingers crossed!)

Yes, I've read through - congrats to all with BFP Flowers

And good luck to all who haven't yet or who have to try again Chocolate

Mrsmulder · 23/03/2016 17:21

I am still not properly on but my periods are often like this. My boobs are so sensitive though. I wish af and pregnancy felt different so I would know. I really think it's af but it's like my body is winding me up and I can't help but think what if. I am cd 24 today so am so tempted to test to put it out of my mind but would it be accurate now? Can't get a test until later anyway as dh is out

TessWess · 23/03/2016 18:42

Oh Mrsmulder it's agonising! I would say test if you are having intermittent bleeding, it'll make you feel more settled one way or another, sounds like you're pretty torn right now anyway. I know what you mean about AF & prego symptoms being too similar! I've had lots of light cramping, which always makes me feel AF is enroute.
I'm currently 8 or 9dpo but actually feeling hopeful after some promising signs. Usually I'd try not to read into anything, but it's been in my head that this is my month after an early mc last month (lots of people telling me happy stories about falling quickly after mc), so this could all be in my head and me willing symptoms on! Definitely got heavy feeling sensitive boobs today and had my 5th night of vivid dreaming.
Roll on next week, this has been the longest 2ww ever for me this time round!! xx

thisisbloodyridiculous · 24/03/2016 21:45

How are we all ladies? I'm in bed already - been asleep by 10 every night this week. Blush hoping it's a symptom!

Mrsmulder · 24/03/2016 22:01

Hope that's a symptom for you thisisridiculous when will you test?

I got a bfn today and bleeding a bit more now so think it's definitely af. I feel fine about it though, it's only my 1st month trying so would be extremely lucky to get a Bfp this month. It was the wondering if it was implantation or af that was driving me mad!

Still going to lurk on the thread to see how many more bfp's we can get. Good luck everyone
