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

Love the term 'pantwatching' bingle Grin the only weird thing I've had today was after going down a soft play slide (I know how to have fun Confused) I felt like I would be physically sick. Needless to sat when dd asked to do it again I said I needed to sit that one out! But apart from that I don't feel much anymore.. I'm now 9dpo so still too early to tell. I hadn't realised that positive tests would hopefully mean Christmas babies!!

Binglesplodge · 26/04/2017 14:47

Positive tests would mean Christmas babies made from Easter eggs... ;-)

I've just advanced-search stalked myself from 2014 when I was pregnant with my ds as I've totally forgotten what I felt like first time round. Sounds very similar: period pain but no period, no obvious pregnancy symptoms. I'm feeling a bit more optimistic!

Good sign bingle No sign of AF yet, due tomorrow. Had cramps on and off day but no spotting which is unusual for the day before AF. Tested this morning but BFN again. Only been using the cheap internet ones so far though, saving my good ones for if AF doesn't show. Gonna wait until Friday morning then test again if no AF. How's everyone else getting on?

1000jobstodo · 26/04/2017 19:32

Just to confirm as last time I didn't exactly get a chance to 'try', if you have a longer cycle, can you still test on 14dpo, or wait longer until your period usually comes? My cycles are 33 ish days long, so I was going to test at 14dpo but now thinking I need to wait longer? Can you tell I've got testing on the brain? Grin

happybus28 · 26/04/2017 20:10

Do you know what CD you ovulated 100jobs it's usually 14 days after ovulation.

Binglesplodge · 26/04/2017 20:13

I think despite the temptation it's probably best to test when your period would be due or, even better, the day after.

Although you can test before, and God knows I did this week, it's not always helpful because depending on the date of implantation the hormone levels may not be high enough to test positive before your period is due. There's also the risk of detecting a chemical pregnancy which you otherwise wouldn't know about, which might be upsetting.

That said, I've given in and tested early this week. It didn't do me any good: the bfns discouraged me and didn't yield any concrete answers because all they told me was that the hcg level wasn't high enough with days to go. I won't test again until Friday or Saturday.

happybus28 · 26/04/2017 20:14

Right I just had another look at my test from this morning and not sure if I see the faintest of lines? Anyone else see anything? I've just been reading now unreliable these cheap tests are and am getting my hopes up which I know is ridiculous!

Smurf123 · 26/04/2017 20:59

Can someone please tell me there is no point doing a test at 9 at night!!!! Id have to walk to the shop to get one and I'm trying to stop myself doing that... Af is due somewhere between Friday and Monday. 25 day cycle would be Friday which is what I had before erpc. But first af after erpc came 28 days later so possible that it isn't due until Monday..

Smurf123 · 26/04/2017 21:00

happy I'm hopeless at reading those type of tests.. Plus it can be hard to capture it in photos but fingers crossed for you :-)

1000jobstodo · 26/04/2017 21:05

Thanks happybus I ovulated on 17th April, so I guess 14dpo would be 1st May. I wouldn't be due af until the 4th ish. Yes I can see why I'd need to wait. God it's especially hard waiting that additional time! I'm just not buying any tests so I can't use them.
In terms of your tests I thought after the window you could get evap lines and therefore they weren't reliable? Could you test again tomorrow? Fx for you!

happybus28 · 26/04/2017 21:51

Yeah I'm just clutching at straws I think! Gonna see what tomorrow brings!

LeannieRVN · 27/04/2017 07:05

I couldn't see anyth9bg happy, but my phone wounds let me zoom properly. What did this morning's say?
1000jobs I'm sure 14dpo has got to be long enough. That count down to pregnancy site give stats on percentage of false negatives.
What did you do last night smurf?
I'm a bfn today, 13dpo. Officially 2 days late going by my old cycle, or not due for 2 days a cording to the last one

I have tested this morning leannie AF due today so I'm just gonna see what happens. If no sign of AF by tomorrow morning I'll test then with a good test rather than a cheap strip! Woke up really hungry again this morning, a few cramps but no spotting. Trying not to get my hopes up.

happybus28 · 27/04/2017 07:14

Oops that was meant to be haven't tested this morning!

PNGirl · 27/04/2017 07:32

I'm now officially late. However the pound shop cheapy dip I just used says no joy. My boobs are boiling hot!

Smurf123 · 27/04/2017 07:51

I didn't test last night leannie and doesn't go to the shop so still have no tests. Think I might stop off at the shop before work today.
Its so difficult to not to test and not to symptom spot!!

Binglesplodge · 27/04/2017 09:58

Still several of us Not Out Yet... Fingers crossed!

Another day of pant watching, period pain, and no period. And today I'm feeling odd. 2 days to go...

Tinkerbell2319 · 27/04/2017 10:02

Repping team knicker checkers today

Didn't test but due today so if nothing will test tomorrow but not holding my breath I've already bought AF supplies 😂

Only symptom is wanting to eat all the biscuits in the world otherwise nada

Fifteenyearslater · 27/04/2017 10:37

AF due either tomorrow or Saturday. Boobs not hurting but had cramping yesterday (had both when pregnant with DD). I've been POAS since Monday (like an absolute crazy woman!!!). Ever since I saw the first BFN on Monday I knew it meant I'm out for this month - why oh why do I then decide to search MN for threads about women who have BFNs right up until after AF is late. I convince myself I've bought a dodgy batch of internet cheapies that actually don't detect HTC earlier than branded tests do. I obviously would love to be preggers now but l almost wish AF would hurry up as at least that way I'll have a bit before the next tww begins.

Binglesplodge · 27/04/2017 10:52

Fifteen: I'm exactly the same. Hang in there! This might be our week. I've decided early testing is a mug's game.

Tinkerbell2319 · 27/04/2017 11:06

I'm out :(

Plodder30 · 27/04/2017 11:07

Im not due to test until 1st May but I thought I'd join in if that's okay :)

Im not feeling very hopeful - No symptoms what so ever :( No implantation bleed, no sore boobs, cervix was high but is on the way down, no nothing - I have had AF styles cramps since the day of OV and I am in such a bad mood, like I have literally been screaming lol. So I think AF is on her way

Good luck to those testing today.

Fifteenyearslater · 27/04/2017 11:56

@Binglesplodge such a mugs game. At least they're scratch cards eh. how many dpo are you? And how many months have you been trying for?
