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!

My boobs have become increasingly "tingley" today

@user1493122015 me too!! Or have a pregnancy test that tells you immediately, like 1dpo!!

I am considering whether to have a glass of wine. I'm only 4dpo so it wouldn't even have implanted yet even if this is my month but then i feel guilty knowing i could be! Might stick to juice!

I work on a farm and I'm being really careful lifting things I'm worrying already 🙄

So I think AF is easing off. Very light now almost spotting. My whole period was quite light to be honest and now it's got even lighter. Maybe TMI but when I go to change my tampons they aren't even full. Just half if that. I didn't sleep with one in at all last night and didn't even leak once which is odd because before pregnancy and the coil my periods were very heavy I had to use super plus tampons and change them every 2 hours!! Plus they lasted 5 days now it's only been 2 Confused xx

Han I want a 1DPO pregnancy test!! Hehe 

@user1493122015 there's no harm in taking it easy until you know, I would be doing the same thing Smile

young if you don't mind me asking, how long have you been off bc? Could it be your body adjusting or do you think it's just an anomaly?

Imo I had my coil removed in Feb but I only had it in since June/July. It could be though. Hopefully it gets sorted so that my cycles are back to normal. Although I'm not complaining about short and light periods lol xx

I tested this morning and nothing, but I'm still 7 days away from AF. I think last time I had a positive by now though. I used an early sign acutest one, cheapie from coop.
I can't seem to find if they're any good or not? Does anyone know?
It's difficult isn't it user, I'm trying to be a bit cautious in case I am (especially after 2 MC), but I feel I can't live my life too differently during the 2ww as il drive myself mad!

Oh and user are your boobs still tingly?! Mine feel a bit different, but I don't know if that's wishful thinking!

young I hope your cycles get back to normal for you too SmileAlthough I wouldn't be complaining about a lighter AF too, the last two months it's felt like there's a boxing match going on in there. Haha

pinki You're not out until your out! You still have lots of time (although that won't make the tww go any quicker, sorry!)

user sorry to hear that lovely, don't lose hope though. FX for next cycle for you Flowers

I misread my calendar - AF is due 4th May. I've tested (I couldn't control myself Confused) and got a BFN.
Young and user you can focus on this new cycle Brew Cake

Fingers crossed for you Pinki!

young not quite but AF should be finishing in a couple of days. I hope at least, this one has drained my energy levels completely!

scruff not many days left though! FX for you!

scruff it's still early. Some women don't get a BFP until after their period was due. My boobs have been hurting whenever they're touched (nothing sexy, my toddler has been accidentally bashing them!). They wouldn't normally hurt like this so I'm wondering if I am... but then I wonder if I'm just exaggerating the symptoms!

To the ladies on their AF or just off it, May is a new month, and a month won't make much difference (that's what I'm telling myself in case I get a negative next week) Smile

Yay panda that's great news!! Will you test again tomorrow? Really pleased for you!! I'm not due until Saturday so still have a week to go!!

How is everyone else doing today? I've been getting lots of mild twinges/cramps and my boobs feel a bit sore but not sure how much of that is in my head!! Best of luck to everyone who is still in this month and Wine to those who will get a bfp next cycle instead Wink

Panda that is amazing news!! Keep us updated! Smile

Han Aww but you're halfway through the tww. When do you think you'll test? Or will you wait until you're late?

If I didn't get my surprise early AF, I would be symptom spotting like crazy, been nauseas since Wednesday night, with low appetite, food aversions and acid reflux. All unusual for me!

@imoasta I am going to try and wait until Friday if I can, but we'll see if I cave in before that!! Just got to keep busy this week and try to take my mind off it but it's hard!

Thanks everyone! I hope I'm not just seeing what I want to see or it be an evap! I'll test again midweek, still won't get my hopes up until I've passed the day af is due and it doesn't show.
