Swore I wouldn't symptom spot this month but...
9dpo usual sore boobs but yesterday I had shooting pains In them like I was being electrocuted. Hmm also ravenous but slightly nauseous too. Although the nausea has lasted all day for 2 days now so probably a bug Grin

mrsbarnettsbaby · 30/01/2017 20:05

The only hpt I have in the house are ic which I know are crap. However still tempted to use one in the morning. Pg symptoms not going away and no sign of AF. I even look pg! (Will be no. 4 if I am) Hate being in limbo. Training for London marathon. Could really do with knowing but scared of seeing another bfn!

MistyBxx · 30/01/2017 20:11

Oh Mrsbarnett that sounds so hopeful! Do you "feel" pg? I've heard from loads of 2nd time (or more!) mums that sometimes they just know. As I'm ttc #1 I have no idea lol I took an early cheap stick test last night and was gutted at a bfn 😩 trying to stay hopeful as af isn't due til Thursday/Saturday/Sunday (mixed predictions from different apps lol) so I'm holding on to the tail end of this month's hopes (boobies very sore but they were last month a whole week before af) but I am peeing a little more often. No funny smells, tastes, pains or any sign of implantation. Just gonna hold out til sat morning now 😑

Usernamegone · 30/01/2017 20:20

On day 12 of my cycle (I normally ov on day 14) and have to go away for a training session tomorrow and won't be back until 11pm on Wed - arrrggghh why do I always have important stuff the other side of the country when I am about to ov! Will have to DTD with DH tonight, tomorrow am and then try to again on Weds night after a five hour drive!

MotherofUnicorns · 30/01/2017 20:55

Feeling grotty today. Cd21 and getting cramps and feeling nauseous today. Very AF like. Currently sitting with hot bean bag on my lap! Af due this weekend I think Cd 24-26. At least I'll get another go at Feb bus with you lot. ....
Also splashed out on one of the £70 odd quid clear blue thingies for next month so I can at least monitor myself as closely as possible. Grrrrr.

Hey unicorn, you sound similar to me! No af signs yet but not due til at least thurs. Don't open the kit though just in case!! You're not actually on yet!

BertieBotts · 30/01/2017 21:01

This cold has really got me and I don't think I've O'd yet. How annoying. Temps are all completely out of wack.

WhatsForDinnerMummy · 30/01/2017 21:10

Jumping on! Hi all.
23
TTC #2
Early miscarriage Jul 16
Due AF Valentine's Day
Good luck and happy trying

Coffee3 · 30/01/2017 21:42

Glad you like the 'when to test' link!
Emberblu why not just test and check you've not got lucky first time around? (I would def not have the willpower to wait!)

AnyFarrahFowler · 30/01/2017 21:48

I caved and tested early Blush Obviously it was a BFN. I must admit I don't "feel" pregnant, whereas with DS I had all the usual symptoms. I know every pregnancy is different, and I'm not technically supposed to test til Saturday, but still. Ffs Sad

MistyBxx · 30/01/2017 22:11

ANY I'm exactly the same 🙈 tested last night and I know I shouldn't have, bfn of course, holding on to a glimmer of hope before testing again sat morning x

Coffee3 · 30/01/2017 22:11

AnyFarrahFowler you never know, there's 5 days yet; don't count yourself out (love your username btw)

AnyFarrahFowler · 30/01/2017 22:57

Thanks Coffee Smile
Fingers crossed for both of us on Saturday then, Misty!

hhaz · 31/01/2017 00:17

Was stupid and tested early as friend 'guessing' I was pg got my hopes up, bfn, af due on Thursday! Need to be stronger,!!

MistyBxx · 31/01/2017 08:12

Same hhaz! Not out of the game yet chick wait til af doesn't arrive 😍

Ohb0llocks · 31/01/2017 08:13

Suuuuuper positive ov test this morning Grin DP is pleased

Ohb0llocks · 31/01/2017 08:19

Charley2016 · 31/01/2017 08:31

Any, hhaz and misty don't worry! You are all still very early. We all know how hard it is to step away from the pee sticks haha! FX for the weekend!

Oh that is super strong! Got lots of BD in?

Anyone else treating about wrapping pregnancy tests in nice red boxes for valentines Blush I literally ever month have went, oh would be nice to tell him after the honeymoon, or on Christmas Day, or on his birthday haha and I end up bloody dreaming about it every month.

BertieBotts · 31/01/2017 08:41

Yes there's always some significant date! Which in the beginning was a bit scary because it kept hyping it up and putting the pressure on. Now I just feel like there's going to be a special day every month so never mind Grin

BluePheasant · 31/01/2017 09:13

I would have caved in early too and tested if I had any in the house!

If I get a bfp there's no way I could wait until Valentine's Day to tell DH Grin

Hope feeling better Bertie

I felt so tried last night, about 7pm just overwhelming tiredness came over me, no reason for it as wasn't a v hectic day. It passed again after an hour or so, weird!

12 dpo, keep hoping for signs of implantation bleed but I've got nothing

Emberblu · 31/01/2017 09:46

Coffee3 I will be buying the test(s) today and testing tomorrow morning since still no AF! It's been so hard holding off, but I just didn't want a bfn haha at least this way I could convince myself I was definitely pg with all these 'symptoms' Grin Fx I am one of the lucky ones Smile

MistyBxx · 31/01/2017 09:59

It's a nightmare having tests in the house 😑 if I get a bfn Saturday (or if af arrives) I'm gonna stash the tests and forget about them lol.
Boobies are still sore, got up in the night to pee again which is unusual for me but no sign of implantation bleed which is what I'm really looking out for coz af not due til Thursday earliest and Monday latest but can't get that stupid bfn out of my head from Sunday which I know is early but seems unlikely to have been wrong 🙈

GN06 · 31/01/2017 11:10

CD23 for me and feeling absolutely nothing whatsoever. Nada. Feeling pretty sure I've not conceived as I still didn't get peak this month on CB fertility monitor. Will be gutted of course, but feel like I know in my head it's not my month. Will be mentioning the non existent peak days for the last 3 cycles (since having coil removed) to gp next week. Hopefully ovulation is still happening by the LH surge is too low for the monitor to pick it up... would love to know what's really going on down there! Planning on testing on 6th/7th if AF hasn't showed up by then.

mrsbarnettsbaby · 31/01/2017 11:11

Bfn on ic this morning. However no AF and ic are crap so not losing hope yet!

BluePheasant · 31/01/2017 12:02

Feeling similar to you GN06. My symptoms with DC1 were so strong, I feel that I would just know if I was pregnant again!
