I don't know all the acronyms but my period is due on Wednesday. With my daughter I didn't really think about it too much when ttc and didn't test until my period was a week late but I'm getting really obsessive this time. I feel really premenstrual but I remember feeling like this last time.

My gut feeling is that is that I am not pregnant but I'm still hoping (mainly because selfishly it would work out really well its annual leave if I get pregnant soon!)

Mel2795 · 11/07/2016 09:02

AF due today... no signs of her yet.. Boobies increasingly soarer!

Theknittinggorilla · 11/07/2016 09:21

Bfn for me this morning but as expected as not due till Friday. Will try again tomorrow.

katkas · 11/07/2016 10:05

Looking forward to hearing some good news this week, good luck ladies xx

Addictedtopoas2213 · 11/07/2016 10:22

Hi All, Please can I join. AF due on 18th July and currently 12dpo. Had BFN 5 days running. Tender boobs, twinges, dreams about being pregnant. I'm pretty much convinced I am pregnant, just need that BFP. Pllleeease let this be my month. Longest 2ww ever. Hope you're all well!

Niks2026 · 11/07/2016 12:42

Mel, looks like BFP signs for you. Will have everything crossed for you.

Gorilla, fingers crossed for you to. Only 4 days to go. Hold on in there.

Mammabear, how many did you order, lol.

I've got 3 hpt, due AF Monday. I was going to wait until I was late but I've got a hen night Saturday and I don't want to drink if I have a chance of being pregnant. I've been feeling really sick, bad cramps, boobs are a little tender as of yesterday, pregnancy related dreams. Weeing lots and can smell everything! So I'll probably cave Saturday and test.

MightyLightningMouse · 11/07/2016 12:50

Hello! May I join??? Due my period on Wednesday next week - I think I'm roughly 5DPO so far. Only "symptoms" at the mo are sore boobs and a very achey lower back right in the middle! Never had this before, only usually during AF.

Fx for you all!!

poaspcos · 11/07/2016 12:50

Can I join? Anyone else 4dpo? I have PCOS so probably won't get my bfp but be fun to join in on my first month TTC #2

MightyLightningMouse · 11/07/2016 13:16

@poaspcos - I'm 4/5DPO too! Good luck, when will you be testing??

AddictedToRadley · 11/07/2016 13:20

A few sound very promising! I'm desperately trying not to get my hopes up but can't help it! This morning I started feeling really queasy, like really sickly but knowing that I won't be sick. I felt like this with DD so I'm hoping it's a good sign. I actually 'feel' pregnant but no idea if that's still leftover hormones from the twins, whether it's wishful thinking or whether it's gut instinct....it's so hard! I did cave in but got a BFN Sad although the more I stare at it the more I think I see a second line but am sure I can't really.

My symptoms so far;
Creamy CM and lots of
Feeling queasy but not actually sick
Stomach cramps on right side
Bowels looser than normal (sorry for tmi)
More emotional than usual
Feeling very flushed but could be the heat!
Just 'feel' pregnant but can't explain why!

I'm off to rock in a corner for another week!! Lol

Good luck everyone and welcome to all newbies.

Alicium · 11/07/2016 13:35

Hey, can I join in this? I'm not a usual poster as I'm not actually trying for a baby. I was a bit promiscuous a week ago with an ex (I know, very naughty of me. Blame the booze) and now I'm waiting for my period, obsessing over every little niggle, trying so hard to remember what my CM is like other months!
I'm 7DPO (I think, again I've never had to religiously check when I'm ovulating before). I've just ordered a load of HPTs off Amazon so hopefully they'll be here tomorrow.
I'd probably be alone doing this so I'm flying wildly between desperately wanting to be pregnant and really not wanting it.
I've got loads of creamy CM and a headache that won't go away, I'm knackered and I keep getting twinges in my stomach. But I don't know whether it's stress!

AddictedToRadley · 11/07/2016 13:45

I thought I'd replied yesterday but it doesn't look like it posted. I wrote a fairly long post but can't remember what I was saying apart from that it's sounding positive Niks and to say to Emily that I'm really sorry that AF came and destroyed your dream this month. Will keep fx that next month is yours. Sticky baby dust sent to you for next month Emily

AddictedToRadley · 11/07/2016 13:48

Welcome Alicium I can't really help much but if you are pregnant then the headaches are usually caused by dehydration because your body needs more water than it usually does. Try drinking a a few extra glasses of water or sugar free juice (not tea coffee or fizzy drinks though) as they'll rehydrate you and hopefully help the headaches whether they're stress or pregnancy related dehydration.

poaspcos · 11/07/2016 14:40

Hi Mighty I suspect I will start at 7dpo because I'm impatient but I know that's tediously early and a waste of a test - I might try to hold out till a week Thursday and that's when I shall accept what the stick decrees Wink how about you?

FeckArseIndustries · 11/07/2016 16:20

FeckArseIndustries · 11/07/2016 16:29

Alicium, oops Flowers you poor bugger, you must be all over the place! On the plus side, you can't really lose - if it's positive you get a lovely baby, and if it's negative you don't have to speak to the ex again (and you can have a lovely baby another time with someone great). x

MummyTo1TTC2 · 11/07/2016 16:37

feck great idea!!! I always end up loosing track on threads!

I don't know if I'm just reading too much into things especially as I am so tired today....but all day I've had twinges, few sharp pains, and heaviness around my pelvis, tender boobs for 4 days, indigestion/heartburn which I think is what is making me feel really nauseous and I have had frequent urination (could be due to coffee overload at work)

Had BFN this morning though. If it is pregnancy symptoms surely with it causing all that it would show on a test? I'm confused I think I just have super high hopes for this month haha xx

katkas · 11/07/2016 16:41

Ah thanks for the summary Feck - I will lurk around here a little longer if you don't mind, hoping for a plenty more BFPs this month. Seeing your somehow made a little more real, as well as the call to GP this morning to make an appointment (no surprises there, I have to call again first thing on Thursday morning to get an appointment for Friday). Might have to POAS just before then to make sure I didn't make it all up haha!

PrincessIrene · 11/07/2016 16:57

Hello can I poke my head in? AF is due on weds and I've had a few symptoms and a BFN today but that's not FMU. I have another test to take first thing tomorrow morning.

So far my sense of smell is through the roof, I've had vivid dreams, I'm absolutely shattered and last night I was woken by horrendous cramp in my legs. I've never had cramp other than in pregnancy!

NerrSnerr · 11/07/2016 17:03

I tested negative today but I have really bad PMT symptoms. If I am not pregnant my period should come early so I will know either way. I have a busy day tomorrow so I'm going to try and hold off testing if my period doesn't arrive and wait until Wednesday. I'm breastfeeding my toddler and it's been a bit sore the last few days so I am hoping that's a sign.

MightyLightningMouse · 11/07/2016 17:17

Feck - fab idea!! Hopefully we can all keep track and offer support even if the witch arrives!

Poaspcos - I'm going to starting testing on 10DPO I think (thats when I got my BFP last time before I MC) which is Sunday 17th!! You think you could hold out that long?? I'll be using FRER. Although I'll probs just end up buying cheapies.

What symptoms are you all getting right now? For me its just my back, its killing!!

Theknittinggorilla · 11/07/2016 18:06

I've stupidly taken another look at my bfn from this morning and am now convincing myself there is a faint line - am I going mad? Will obv test again in the morning....
My mind is playing tricks on my body and I am nauseous crampy and exhausted

2WW anyone?
Theknittinggorilla · 11/07/2016 18:06

And Feck that is fab - I really struggle to keep track of everyone on these threads and that really helps!

Niks2026 · 11/07/2016 20:00

Great list feck!

Princess, you may get that BFP later on in the week then. Fingers crossed for you.

Fingers crossed for you to mummy.

Hey addicted. I hope all there symptoms are not all just in my head. Today I have been really bloated, smells are getting to me, boobs feel bruised, lots of cramping and generally feeling sick. Thursday will be CD28 and my cycles generally range between 28-31. I don't want to test too early though and see a bfn :( I do want to test Saturday though because I'm out on a hen night and will obviously not want to drink!

AddictedToRadley · 11/07/2016 22:12

Gorilla I've been sat staring at your picture until my eyes went funny but it's so hard to tell when it's not in front of you in real life. To start with I couldn't see anything but after ages staring at the screen and tilting my phone from side to side I think I may see the faintest ever plus sign line! I'm praying it's not just my imagination but I can see something starting after the 'T' of pregnant at the top and going down between the first 'N' and 'A' of not pregnant. Is that where you're seeing it?
Either way I'd say retest in the morning and preferably with a digital test so there's no doubting as it'll either say pregnant or the other (that we won't mention...).
Good luck. Sending sticky baby dust and hoping you come back with a BFN.
