Hey, I'm just starting the tww and looking for some friends to join me for the wait. I'll probably test when af is due on the 16th. I've got to the point where I don't know what cycle I'm on - I think it's 8 though!

Everythingnow super sores bbs here too and pink cm at 5dpo. Totally weird as, yes, it's too early for ib.

Greggs no early poas for me either - I have one test in the house and that WILL be the one that shows my bfp

MamOfFrankie be strong! Do you have any in the house? If so get your DP to hide them. I find if I have to actually go buy one I can usually talk myself out of it.

Can I ask does anyone know if spotting is really obvious or is it easy to miss? I only ask as I wear a lot of dark underwear and I'm not sure I would see it if its as little as I've heard it is? I've had terribly sore boobs since before I now know I've ovulated and I've been having mild cramps since then too so i think I'm possibly due an early AF anyway so chances we did accidently get an egg fertilised I don't think it would take if I have a short luteal phase this month. My Clue app reckons I should get AF 20th but Ovia reckons 23rd. Who knows, mine are so irregular anyway I'm forever POAS since I can never tell when I'm 'late'. Oh what our bodies put us through...

cavatron · 07/09/2017 07:20

How soon can you experience symptoms?! I was up this morning feeling incredibly sick and this is totally new to me. I've a stomach of steel, never get nauseous unless I'm hungover - which I'm obviously not!

I'm 7 DPO.

Flyingfruit · 07/09/2017 07:30

i don't have any symptoms. Last month, after coming off the pill but before my withdrawal bleed I had every symptom under the sun but turned out it was PMT! When does everyone plan to test? I'm going to aim for 3 days after AF is due. But I'm already thinking about the one I have at the back of the cupboard 5DPO (7 according to my app) 😂

MamOfFrankie · 07/09/2017 07:34

Morning cavatron and Flyingfruit.
I have had nearly every symptom under the sun, but I think once I started symptom spotting my body obliged by just making some up! Sickness, heartburn, swollen boobs, the works. Started about 8 days dpo.

I am trying to hold out until a week after AF is due, currently 2 days late

CherryVicky29 · 07/09/2017 08:19

Morning ladies,I'm only 5dpo and experiencing really tender breasts but as others say could be symptom spotting 😂 im testing mid next week

Hollsers92 · 07/09/2017 08:20

Morning everyone! I'm currently around 8dpo and I have no symptoms at all. Just the odd little pull or jab in my left ovary area which has been normal for me for the past 3 cycles around this time! I'm trying hard not to think about symptoms and how long I have to wait but it's becoming difficult when my best friend is 6 months pregnant and my work colleague is 4 months pregnant!

Flyingfruit · 07/09/2017 08:22

Ooh mamoffrankie 2 days late- good luck keep us posted!

Littleredwagon2308 · 07/09/2017 09:35

Jumping in!

TTC #1
Cycle 2
AF due 17
2 DPO

Paranoid - Positive OPK on CD 14 but worried it wasn't a dark enough line. I even started a thread to ask for confirmation.

BBT thermometer only arrived yesterday. Already f up the first BBT reading I did not press "save" in Fertility Friend and had to remember the reading when I woke up a bit later. Is it a good idea to start taking BBT half way through a cycle anyway? I thinking the more data the better!

I'm sure I saw some others with AFs due 17.

Betsyboo87 · 07/09/2017 11:21

Pumpkinbee you could miss it. I only noticed it on the tp a couple of times. I do spot during my lp (although usually much later) so I tend to look out for it.

Littleredwagon2398 no harm in starting now. You'll need a full cycle to see the pattern but youll get an idea now if what your post ov temps are like.

I have been soooo bloated for the last couple of days.

Pumpkinbee · 07/09/2017 11:32

Thanks Betsy I had no idea what to expect if anything at all.

Flyingfruit · 07/09/2017 13:12

What's the earliest you could get an implantation bleed? I've had some dark brown spotting today.

Betsyboo87 · 07/09/2017 13:56

Flyingfruit I think the earliest implantation occurs is 6dpo so maybe then?

I think my pre af spotting has started so feeling seriously f**ked off! I keep examining the tp - I'm officially insane!

OP posts:

Flyingfruit · 07/09/2017 14:22

Ooh I'm 6 DPO from when I think and 8 DPO from app. Would yours be spotting for AF already? I thought you were due on after me?

Betsyboo87 · 07/09/2017 14:49

Flyingfruit I spot for a week before af..... I won't subject you to the whole story but the drs don't think it's a problem. I've actually read about ladies who still get their spotting with a bfp so I should try to stay positive but it's hard!

OP posts:

Pumpkinbee · 07/09/2017 17:04

Thank god I asked you about spotting earlier because I checked the TP and there it was...tiny bit of pink/Brown and AF isn't due till 19th but as I mentioned before I had a feeling it might come early. I'm only on 2DPO.

Pumpkinbee · 07/09/2017 17:12

3 DPO* I've just read an article that days you can get implantation bleeding 3-5 days after ovulation but I thought that was way too early.

Hollsers92 · 07/09/2017 17:13

Feeling ridiculously hormonal and emotion over here completely broke down at the end of my work day (I'm a teacher). Still getting little niggles in my lower abdomen.

CherryVicky29 · 07/09/2017 17:58

I've been getting lower abdomen cramps this evening 5dpo, god only my first cycle and getting super impatient

ThreeAfter30 · 07/09/2017 18:50

Oh girls im gonna boke with nerves. Im 9dpo, af due in 3 days time and i just gave in and tested and can see the faintest line on an ic. Dp can see it too so i know im not imagining it!

Awk thanks @CherryVicky29 xx

sazzle3 · 07/09/2017 19:32

Not sure how many dpo I am. AF is due 17th or 18th. Been txt since the end of January. I'm hoping September is my month for a bfp xx

Stormcloud10 · 07/09/2017 19:46

Fingers crossed for you Three
I'm 8 dpo, I'm very tired and boobs are slightly sore but nothing very exciting. Going to test Sunday but feeling very fed up tonight
