TTC - First Time! (2)

[mrsjkerry]

Hi all. Reconvene here!

I have a PT and never cancel my sessions 🤓

Evening girlies,
Yeah my instructor says exercise is great in pregnancy! And goes towards an easier healthy labour!
Also one of the women instructors (42) announced she was pg last week... and she was lugging tractor tyres and weights and flat out boxercising... she's very fit but I did think to myself oooof maybe you shouldn't be doing THAT much but everyone knows their own limits :)

Yes Marie I'm the same... like you get taught unprotected sex will get you up the duff, you panic your whole youth thinking omg these sperm are just waiting for me to miss a pill or break a condom and BOOM you're pg.
what a fucking lie 😂😂😂

I'm sat here at the end of day 28 (AF day) with no af 😡😡😡 I'm annoyed coz I'm usually like clockwork, I've had sore boobs since about 5dpo (normal for me) and I have had slight cramps but nothing actually there. My cycles have always been 28 days but since I've come off the pill, they have varied slightly, I've had a couple of 29s, 30's and 31's so I'm NOT thinking I'm pg lol I know I didn't catch the right days and barely dtd in my fw, I haven't been symptom spotting and have no symptoms of pg at all, just the usual bad boobs but I just want it to hurry up and get out of the way!😡😡

Awww Misty, how frustrating.

Similar here. AF was dyed yesterday & nothing yet. Have different symptoms to usual but has to be impending AF as bfn 2 days ago. Unless my cycle is way wrong this month. No OPKs but went of symptoms for O. AF was always predicted for 1st regardless though.

On the plus side, if not pg, then my literal phase is longer (if O date correct).

This is all too confusing & I agree with earlier posts. What happened to don't even look at a penis or you'll be knocked up!!!! So misleading!!

It so is frustrating. Now I've just come to bed so maybe it will be there when I get up (it never happens overnight, usually in afternoon/evening or first thing in morning, I think it's gravity haha)
It took me a while to get used to my new af symptoms! On the pill I'd get sore boobs and cramps one DAY before af arrived and that would be it! So you can imagine as my body started to get into its new routine, luckily my periods have stayed regular but Christ I've thought I was pg almost every month with the 10-day long boob ache and week long tummy and back cramps before the bitch even arrives 😂😂
And this month is no different. Boobs are sore but don't look/feel bigger or different colour or anything. Only difference is the cramps are very light and a bit "stitch-like" if anything, usually they're really intense but maybe I've got that joy to look forward to tomoz lol.
Oh well. Least it's Friday tomoz so I can slob out all weekend.
Goodnight ladies x

Misty have you taken a pregnancy test? Only my cramps feel very much like stitches and the only really noticeable symptom I have is bad back.

I never used to get sore boobs ever. It's a new symptom since coming off the pill. Weird!!

No I haven't tested mrsjkerry, I honestly don't think I'm pg, I don't feel anything at all and I only dtd 3 times in fw, once 5 days before ov, once 2 days before ov (but that was the "dry" one lol I certainly didn't feel the usual evidence up there or coming back out haha) and once the day after ov, by which time the egg would have been almost gone. I'm not thinking pg at all, I'm just assuming this is one of my slightly longer cycles. It will probably arrive this afternoon/evening coz there was nothing in my morning pee. Can still feel slightly stitchy pains but very low down in my "above the foof" area 😂😂 feels a bit like wind if I'm honest haha x

Fingers crossed for you misty! My af was due yesterday too and still no sign - my brain has been doing overtime saying what if what it!!! But first month properly off pill so who knows my cycle length!!

How you feeling mrsj has it all sunk in now? Exciting times!

I am doing ok. AF due today. This was the test this morning. I won't accept it until Monday when AF definitely hasn't come...

No sign of it yet!!

Hey girls, still no sign of af yet. But I was only due yesterday (which was day 29. I thought it was day 28 but 28 is last day of cycle which was Wednesday then day 29 becomes day 1 usually) so I'm on day 30 today. But my 2nd cycle off pill was 38 days (mind you, I took pregnacare that month and I swear that threw my cycle off) regular cycles are 28-31 days but I'm really not thinking anything coz I've had a stressy month, had job interview yesterday (got it) hubs been going for other jobs and I've had an illness in the family which has really upset me, so it's likely a combination has thrown me off a bit. I'm not burying my head though, as much as I didn't think I dtd right days etc, I know there is a tiny possibility I've caught. So although logical me says it's the stress and stuff, I am thinking if there's still no sign of af tomoz, I will do a test Sunday morning. Having said that now though, you watch it will turn up this afternoon lol x

A lot of us late this month....

I'm now 2 days late & I want to test tomorrow but DH trying to convince me not too, and wait until I'm a week late. What do you guys think?

Since Ovulation I've had ewcm, white thick cm & watery cm?? I usually just get a bit round O. Boobs actually ok which is unusual as usually a prime sign of impending AF. I have had a really bad backache too. However work is extremely busy & high pressure right now so it could just be stress!!

Gah!! I don't know what to do.....

Twisted and misty I'd test! You're late! Wouldn't you rather know? I couldn't bear the not knowing..

We are very similar Twisted!!! But as my cycles have always been 28-31 (with one freak 38) I'm not actually late yet! Only late if I'm 28 day cycle which isn't every one but Clue has been pretty accurate so far. I've only got 1 test in the house and I'm not wasting it on an evening pee lol I will see if anything happens tonight as af usually happens afternoon/evening for me (or first thing in morning) so if nothing, perhaps I will test tomoz morning first pee. But honestly now, if I wasn't on here I wouldn't be even thinking about it lol so I really don't want to encourage myself haha I'd rather af than a bfn lol xx

I have tried to post loads today but my posts keep disappearing!

If it were me, I would have to wait until testing time, as otherwise you can get false positives or negatives (I think) so in my head there wouldn't be a lot of point (although the not knowing would be killing me!)

I am annoyed! After getting the smily yesterday I wanted to fit in other DTD either last night or this morning. But DP was knackered last night (we were out until about midnight, yes on a school night too!) And then this morning he felt under pressure and so things didn't quite pan out as I'd hoped!

I am convinced I ovulated yesterday too as had lots of ewcm (never even noticed that before!)and crampy pains in my side. So would another DTD this evening be too late for this cycle? I have no clue!

I am pretty sure I am out for this cycle BUT we did DTD on Tues ie 2 days before what I think was ovulation. There is quite a chance from that isn't there?

I agree pibbee. I don't want to test today and will only be day 31 tomoz. Longest cycle with me has been 38 days (that's when I was on the supplements) but I'm generally 28-31. So I am definitely going to wait til maybe Sunday, if I can wait out tomoz lol by which time I will be either 4 days or 1 day late based on my regular cycles.

And if you dtd 2 days before ov, you're defo in the running :)

I would hold off testing a few days and see if AF will turn up. I'm on CD37 and still spotting - hoping it will turn into AF in a few days 🤞🏻
Negative test this morning too be sure and I've had enough POAS and wasting money!
Must be something in the air for late AF's...

I agree tuxie, my longest cycle was 38 but I don't think I can wait that long 😂 I will test Sunday morning and guaranteed it will turn up straight after lol. That's mad you're having such a long cycle, is that normal for you? Any symptoms?

Not normal no, I just assume it's my cycle perhaps regulating after the pill. My nipples are still bigger but that's all, I've given up with expecting a positive and would just like AF to show up so I can figure it next cycle!

Just hoping this spotting comes to something more substantial

How long since you've been off the pill chick?

End of December so not toooo long

Lots of late AF's!
I'm on CD29 but my cycles are usually V.regular 28-29 days so if AF hasn't made an appearance tomorrow then I may look at testing! Don't really feel any Pg symptoms... More like normal AF symptoms yesterday but not as much today (apart from running to the loo every 5 mins to check if she's reared her ugly head)! 🙈

MistyBxx Charl19 Twisted we all seem to be on similar timings with our cycles... I'm glad I'm not the only one wondering am I/aren't I!

Pibbee I remember being just as frustrated with my OH when he said he was too tired when it was my FW... I was like "this is our chance!!" Lol
You're definitely not out if you DTD 2 days before you think you O... Those little swimmers can apparently survive for up to five days so Fx they did the job!

It's mad how a few of us are all late! I'm sure i'm just late though, I really don't feel pg at all. Not that I know what that feels like lol.
I just went for a wee and still nothing. Not a smudge! I'm gonna see if it appears in first pee tomoz morning hopefully.x

I'm cd30 which is unheard of since coming off implant!!

I am testing tomorrow if no af overnight!!

Good luck to everyone testing this weekend 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 let us know how you get on!
