I had light brown spotting last night and thought it may have been ovulation as i was 11dpo but nope. AF arrived early this morning! Hopefully May will be my the lucky month!

young Aww I would be the same!! I'm always getting family baby updates and it's making me so broody!

I know I'm only 3DPO so it's too early for a lot of things but I've got acid reflux which I never get!
I know I need to stop symptom spotting but I can't help it.
Anyone else experiencing things?

Ttc to ladies! I'm issy! Currently 5 days late and praying my period doesn't come! Stopped the pill in march :) unfortunately had a miscarriage 2 years ago and finally trying again! Pregnancy before took me a long time to test positive so driving myself batty at the minute:(

HansSolo22 · 26/04/2017 17:05

imoasta I am also 3dpo and I know it's way too early but I'm the same about symptom spotting! Twice today I've been at home and have really clearly smelled cigarette smoke (no windows open so no idea how!!) And I feel a bit of a dull ache but i think I'm imagining it!!

Hi issy and welcome! Sounds like you could be next for a bfp! When do you think you will test? Fingers crossed for you!

user1493122015 · 26/04/2017 17:38

Well I tested 2 days ago negative 👎 so will try again maybe Saturday! I've been pregnant before and had a miscarriage and I was very late finding out so must just be my body! Good luck to you too!

ImoAsta · 26/04/2017 17:43

Hi Issy! Fingers crossed for you! Smile

Han I've had a dull ache too since last night! And this afternoon it's gotten a bit worse and it's a bit different to AF cramps.

I've just come home from work and I've had some spotting. I know it's supposed to be too early but could this be implantation bleeding? (Maybe I ovulated sooner than I thought?)

Any thoughts everyone?

Aw ladies it drives you mad doesn't it! I think I'm 6/7 days post ovulation and I think I have had cramps and have slightly sore boobs, I keep grabbing them to check! I've got at least 10 days before I can test I reckon. I obsess over the calendar counting the days!

pinkiponk · 26/04/2017 17:53

It could be imo I didn't ovulate when I thought I did and got pregnant by accident! Had cramps as you have described. (Unforunately that ended in MC)

user1493122015 · 26/04/2017 18:00

Can someone please enlighten me on the terminology I don't know what af etc means! Sorry for being thick!

ImoAsta · 26/04/2017 18:18

pinki Sorry to hear that :(
But I am now thinking I may have ovulated early, otherwise this is a very very early period!

Issy I'm only getting used to the terminology myself! Smile

Here's a link to all the terminology from MN, I have to reference it quite a lot when reading things! hehe

Thanks so much!

user1493232014 · 26/04/2017 20:11

Hi All 👋🏻

After obsessing online for months whilst TTC have decided to join MN. Been TTC for 4 months. Approx 5 dpo (according to Flo app & CM signs).

TWW is SO hard! Am I crazy... or could my cramps & lower abdomen ache be imp? Sore boobs too. AF due on 7 May.

Thought I'd join & wait with you all. Fingers crossed for everyone!

scruffmacduff · 26/04/2017 20:33

Hello to everyone!

I'm happily driving myself round the twist symptom spotting here.

Peeing all the time, still a bit crampy and also (possibly tmi) still ewcm. I'm sure I read somewhere that this is a good sign. So keeping my fingers crossed!

I have been out today and bought some cheapie pregnancy tests for next week....will need to try and refrain from wasting them all too early 🙈

ImoAsta · 26/04/2017 21:08

Hi @user1493232014 and @scruffmacduff

The TWW is driving me round the bend too! Fingers crossed for both of you hehe

ImoAsta · 27/04/2017 07:31

What I thought was implantation cramps and spotting has turned out to be a very early period Sad

Xx

HansSolo22 · 27/04/2017 07:55

imo sorry to hear that, don't lose hope yet! I conceived cycle 4 with my little boy and C3 with my second pregnancy (sadly ended in a loss). This is C4 for me now so I'm hoping this is my lucky month. Stay positive and fingers crossed for next month x

pinkiponk · 27/04/2017 08:24

Imo that's disappointing, especially after the waiting. I fear I'm going to be saying the same in a few weeks, no symptoms at all, and now I usually get something. I'be got pregnant the first cycle every time so far (3 times), so not sure if something has gone wrong this time.
I figure I'm going to try and enjoy not being pregnant, enjoy a glass of wine, continue running and circuits and stuff!

user1493122015 · 27/04/2017 09:00

Anyone else just getting cramps in the morning no af coming though? I also picked my dog up funny last night and got like a sharp pain in my side?

PandaCat · 27/04/2017 10:13

Hi everyone! Im new around here. Been stalking but thought Id join officially.

Currently in the tww having some spotting, sore boobs.. feeling super hungry and tired etc.. This is my first time ttc and Im driving myself crazy (I have a child but wasn't planned so didnt experience this tww). Af is due a week friday!

user1493122015 · 27/04/2017 11:46

I've been buying tests from b and m that are supposidly early showing but I've only now looked at they are 25 strength and I've looked online and the early tests should be 5 strength so I've been doing the wrong tests all along!,

ImoAsta · 27/04/2017 13:46

Thank you Han and Pinki 
First time I've ever been irregular since coming off the pill so let's hope it's not going to happen again!
OH could see I was disappointed this morning to suggested we go on one of our favourite hikes at the weekend which I'm looking forward to too!
But in the mean time I think I'll be joining you for that glass of wine tonight pinki. 

Hi to @PandaCat And @user1493122015
Fingers crossed for you both! Let us know how the tww and testing goes!
Xx

user1493122015 · 27/04/2017 14:05

I'm just trying to forget about it all and just let it happen but it's so hard!

scruffmacduff · 27/04/2017 16:38

Sorry to hear that Imo - enjoy your glass of wine and your hike!

I'm a bit unsure now - I was hopeful but I think maybe I was getting carried away.

Still got my fingers crossed though!

user1493122015 · 27/04/2017 17:37

Me too! Currently my body can't decide whether to vomit or eat a house 👎

HansSolo22 · 27/04/2017 18:03

I have had mild cramps all day today, like af but it's way too early for that. I had this with my 2nd pregnancy but i think I also had it a couple of months ago and it was nothing! Will just have to wait until next Friday when I can test. I wish it wasn't so far away!!!

user1493122015 · 27/04/2017 18:05

Wish we could time travel 😂
