Hello ladies! So we're currently trying for baby #2. Came off implant in december. AF showed 1st February then again 30th March. My friend suggested the app Flo. According to the app if im regular i should have ovulated around 12th. We DTD every other day from AF finishing. Now im having mild cramps in lower belly. (I think its in my head though!) Just got to enjoy the 2ww (yayy)
Anyone else ttc and their brain finding symptoms everywhere?

Af was due earlier this week but I was 2 weeks late last month so to be honest not sure when it's due. I think I ovulated late Confused
Should I test again tomorrow?

LoveRainbow02 · 28/04/2017 10:42

@pocketfullofsunshine just that I am already 2 days late. A hpt showed have at least showed a faint line by now and I've got nothing x

Fayemay27 · 28/04/2017 14:33

Thank you @pocketfullofsunshine That's really helpful and I can see a very very very faint line. This makes me a little more hopeful.

I'm a bit late though @LoveRainbow02 and the test below is mine...so you never know.

LoveRainbow02 · 28/04/2017 14:46

I'm never usually late @Fayemay27 . Only time will tell. Just need to find something to distract myself lol coz I am going out of my mind lol x

I have been reading though that some women have tested with bfp a week or so after af due too. I dont know what my hcg levels are like as i was 18 weeks when found out i was pregnant with DS. My older sister has low hcg levels any way she doesnt find her BFP until 2 weeks after AF due x

LoveRainbow02 · 28/04/2017 15:26

Omg 18 weeks until you showed pregnant, that's crazy! My levels should be okay as I was pregnant in January this year but miscarried at 7 weeks. I'm just gonna try not to think about it and see what happens lol x

@love no hun sorry. I didnt know until i went into hospital for something else and they picked it up. Had no symptoms, bump or anything. So all this ttc and 2ww is a totally different language. No idea what my levels are like and i feel my cramps when i sit and relax so unsure whats what with my body anymore lol x

Wondering if my cycles have changed length and thats why "/
Gona start temping i think, will have a better idea then x

OP posts:
LoveRainbow02 · 28/04/2017 21:03

I was thinking the same. Starting to think my mc has messed my cycle up. I temped for a month but I kept forgetting to take it as soon as I woke etc lol x

stuckinthehouse · 29/04/2017 07:37

Faye did you retest this morning or are you waiting a few days?

I got a bfn on cd30 and a bfp on cd34 so fingers crossed for you!

Fifteenyearslater · 29/04/2017 08:32

Congrats to all those who've got their BFPs this month and FX to those, who are yet to have been ensnared by AF.

I've been testing since about 10dpo and am now 1 day late. Needless to say, all tests have been BFN. I would like some honest advice from you ladies please. I've been testing with internet cheapies and yesterday I tested with CBD. Do you think I should just accept that I am not pregnant and that for whatever reason this period is going to be late, or do you think I should go out and buy different branded tests? I know that until AF shows there's always a chance but you know when you really don't want to hang onto what is probably a ridiculously slim chance.

Fifteenyearslater · 29/04/2017 08:44

@stuckinthehouse congrats on your BFP. Do you mind me asking, how often were you testing before you got your BFP and what tests were you using. I had initially told myself that internet cheapies can sometimes be unreliable (well so the reviews on amazon say) and that I could still be pregnant. However I took a CBD yesterday when AF was due and got a BFN so now thinking they're all accurate.

@fifteen was in a similar boat hun. Bought internet cheap sticks and was convinced they're unreliable.. i had positive opk when i shouldnt have been ovulating but hpts are bfn

Im now 3 days late. Have a cbd test to do but darent do it now. Every other test has been bfn and i have cramps to suggest AF is way on her way. Ive ordered a basal thermometer and I'm going to start temping so i can see what my cycles are doing.

Fifteenyearslater · 29/04/2017 09:42

@pocketfullofsunshine have you only used the internet cheapies? Have you not tried FRER?

I've had on and off cramps also although no other symptoms. If anything I feel I have more energy than usual. My boobs don't even feel heavy let alone painful.

LoveRainbow02 · 29/04/2017 09:59

Morning ladies. I am now late for af by 3 days and still getting bfn. Guess I'm just having a long cycle this month.

Fayemay27 · 29/04/2017 12:05

@stuckinthehouse yes I tested this morning and just the same. A very faint line-almost invisible Confused not sure what is going on-if I was pregnant it would be darker surely. Still no af either......

LoveRainbow02 · 29/04/2017 12:13

@Fayemay27 maybe give it another couple of days and test again x
