I'm in the 6dpo in the 2ww and obsessively googling symptoms! Anyone in the same boat?

I'm 10 DPO today, my cycles are around 35 days! Long!! I have a test in the bathroom but boyfriend won't let me test yet as it's too soon.. I am trying for number 2 also. I didn't try for number 1 so I'm new to the whole TWW and Symptom spotting. I have quite bad cramps, mainly on the right hand side of my belly button I was in quite a lot of pain with it yesterday. My boobs feel more sensitive than usual but I am still breastfeeding so I can't measure that accurately. My lower back is starting to ache. My legs have started to go really restless at night which is what happened the first time and I am weeing more often than normal. I use the OVIA app to track my ovulation and periods, this month is the 2nd month of trying and I am not yet tracking BBT or using OPKs. I am estimated to have ovulated on the 13th of April and my period is due on the 26th. Fertile window: 9-14th and I had sex three times during my fertile window which was on the 9th,11th and 14th.

Hope we all get out BFPs soon!Smile xx

Leannie, yeah the internet OPK's I found were better cause you get so many of them and they are cheap and accurate so you don't feel like you're wasting them if you use loads lol. I tried glow but I didn't like it as much as Ovia but you're right, they are usually a few days out and keeping track of your own cycle yourself tends to work better. X

happybus28 · 23/04/2017 14:50

I just caved and tested too leannie 10 dpo and not even fmu so obviously was BFN. Mad at myself for caving now! Sounds promising for you youngmummy FX!!

Coffeecoffeebuzzbuzzbuzz · 23/04/2017 17:58

Not sure how many dpo I am leannie because of how irregular I've been the last few months. I suspect about 11 days (I am CD23 today) but don't think it would have been positive much before that? I hadn't done any opk or anything as it was our first cycle of trying. I'm going to try again on Wednesday and hopefully the line will still be there.

owltrousers · 23/04/2017 18:47

Congrats coffee!

this is actually my first month using the ovia app, and I didn't use an OPK so I'm not entirely sure if it calculated my ovulation days accurately, but we made sure we did the DTD on all of the high chance days just in case.

Usually I have 32-35 day cycles roughly so AF is not due for another 2 weeks but today I have brown spotting and definite cramps, boobs are sore as anything too.

Its all a waiting game atm!

Oysterbabe · 23/04/2017 18:50

I tested this afternoon in the end and got my BFP. Good luck to the rest of you Flowers

pocketfullofsunshine · 23/04/2017 19:20

Eeek congrats oyster
Hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months :) xx

1000jobstodo · 23/04/2017 19:24

Fantastic news oyster! Congratulations! Do you have any pictures? thats great news- you were 12dpo weren't you?
owl that all sounds very promising doesn't it?! Fx for you all

1000jobstodo · 23/04/2017 19:26

Is lower back pain a sign then? I've had that all day but assumed it was because I've been carrying my toddler around..

Oysterbabe · 23/04/2017 19:28

14DPO. I'm afraid there's no line to squint at :)
I felt good about this cycle, like I really pinpointed ovulation and DTD at the right time. Since about 7DPO I've been dizzy, queasy and thirsty with sore boobs and that's just got worse, rather than fading out as AF approaches as normal.

BFP due 29th April......anyone else?
happybus28 · 23/04/2017 19:33

Congratulations oysterbabe Flowers

Binglesplodge · 23/04/2017 19:37

Congratulations! What a productive thread! Fingers crossed luck is in the air...

Coffeecoffeebuzzbuzzbuzz · 23/04/2017 19:55

Congratulations oysterbabe! Good luck to those waiting to test Flowers

1000jobstodo · 23/04/2017 20:00

Oh that's fine oysterI love a clear blue too- nice and simple. Wow that really is fantastic, well done!

youngmummy3105 · 23/04/2017 20:16

Felt nauseous again today. Walked round IKEA and then felt faint like I had to sit down. Lower back hurts quite a lot now. Gonna get my boyfriend to give me a massage tonight! 😜

LeannieRVN · 23/04/2017 21:29

Congratulations Coffeebuzz! The start if your new chapter.
I caved and tested today, at 9dpo and got bfn. I know it was silly, but I'm 0retty sure I'm out anyway. I'll try again when the witch is due on the 27th is.
Cammysmomma im with you! I'm using Ovia, fertility friend and Glow, and also referring to my old period tracker lol. I used to have regular cycles of 25/26 days but they've increased the last 3 months. The last one was 32, I've no idea why, unless is my age Confused.
I'm using Internet cheapie o sticks which i feel ive just got the hang of this month. Tried bbt but found it tricky with shift work (vet nurse). Fx I've got all angles covered!
Welcome Owltrousers (great name).

Aaaahhhh flip! Please forgive the similar posts!!!!! I'm not crazy- I posted earlier from the car and couldn't see it at the bottom of the page...so i thought my internet had bummed out and I'd lost my post I'd taken ages on (I live in Norfolk). Now I've just reposted and found my original post on page 3! Duh (face palm).

Oh oysterbabe, congratulations. Two graduations in one day. Maybe this threat is lucky! I hope your 9months are healthy and happyxxxx
Those symptoms do sound encouraging youngmummy
I'm mad at myself too happybus, fir wasting a stick and not have patience lol
Few more days for us then.....

happybus28 · 23/04/2017 21:53

Do you have any symptoms leannie the spotting i was worried about seems to be tailing off...i do usually spot for a couple of days before I get AF so will see what happens over the next few days. FX it stays away. My boobs are still very tender/sensitive but other than that and the spotting not much else going on! I'm due 27th too so will try and stay patient now and no more testing!

Hope you are feeling a bit better now youngmummy

youngmummy3105 · 23/04/2017 22:00

Let's hope so Leannie and yes I am feeling better now Happy it seems to settle down at night.

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:18

Meh. Caved and tested with a Sainsbury's cheapie and got bfn. Not surprising since AF isn't due for days and ovia says 5 days until I can test. Why oh why is it so hard to resist?

happybus28 · 24/04/2017 07:31

Ahh sorry bingle it is hard to resist isn't it! Hopefully it's just too early, plenty of time for it to turn into a BFP! I woke up this morning absolutely starving!! All I could think about was breakfast which isn't like
me at all! Usually takes me a few hours to get going before I'm hungry. Not sure that it means anything though!

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:48

Thanks. I'll tell myself it's just because I used a notoriously crap test too early... I can't account for the few days of period pains other than implantation so hopefully levels will rise by the end of the week. I might even splash out and buy a better test ready for the weekend...

Binglesplodge · 24/04/2017 07:48

PS enjoy your breakfast: what's on the menu?

youngmummy3105 · 24/04/2017 07:54

Just did a cervix check and it seems to be high but closed and cm is watery. Haven't tested though. Trying to be patient and wait until Wednesday
