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!

Hollsers92 it's so hard to tell as they could be symptoms of a cold or similar on its way. I hope it's a bfp for you though. It's too early to test so I'm afraid patience is my only advice! I know that is easier said than done though....

I'm still so bloated. It's been about 4/5 days now. Desperately trying not to read into it.

Betsy I am, I've started myself on a wellwoman vitamin range without VITAMIN A. I also have pregnacare already because it was recommended to me when I came off the mini pill to help regulate my periods.

Yeah Betsyboo that's what I'm thinking. I don't want to get my hopes up! I've been feeling terrible all day and really tired. A bit TMI but I've have a very high sex drive too which is unlike me! Yeah I'm trying my best to wait and see if AF arrives. How are you feeling apart from the bloat?

Tested this morning at 10dpo and neg so think I'm out now, felt really crap earlier but making myself feel better reminding myself of all the things I can do before I do get pregnant (got a wedding, a party and tickets for Xtreme Scream to look forward to, if you're near Twin Lakes and not upduffed, go, it's brilliant!)
Hope everyone else is doing ok

So I'm imaginary symptom spotting like mad but also on the count down to AF arriving so could just be pmt. my boobs are sore but definitely in a different way to usual and my nipples are extremely erect- is that a sign?!
I'm trying to convince myself I'm not pregnant and it's only the first cycle and chill out but I'm impatient! 4 days til AF...

I recognise a few of you here from last month. Congratulations @three! Lovely news.
I've been ttc #2 since January when i finished bf my dd (was trying since march 2016 but think the bf was getting in the way) so it's been a long old time either way.

I'm 4dpo (used opks and felt it) and dtd the day before, so a slim chance this month. Also moved to Australia from UK last weekend so stress levels are high!

@SydBound27 Welcome. Be kind to you're Moving is so stressful.

@Hollsers92 how you feeling today?

I've had a pelvic pain in my left side today. I'm 5 DPO. It's not unusual for me to have pelvic pain after ovulation. I hope it's not a AF symptom. AF is in 7 days.

I'm out - AF got me. You think it would have the good grace to at least arrive on time.

Hey SydBound27 good to see you! I hope you're able to relax after the move. I've done moving abroad - being reunited with our belongings after shipping was amazing!

MamOfFrankie so sorry you're out. Look after yourself!

Hollsers92 how are your symptoms? I haven't felt so bloated today so probably wasn't a symptom.

Sorry to hear that @MamOfFrankie.

@Betsyboo87 & @Littleredwagon2308 I've had warm sensations and a stitch like feeling on and off yesterday so decided to POAS this morning at 12dpo but it was a BFN. Still full of the cold :(

I'm not giving up hope until AF arrives though!

I meant to say stitch feelings and warm sensations in my lower abdomen!

9dpo ovulation and my bbt has risen considerably compared to yesterday, sure I'm looking into it too much though 😂

I'm out early again. AF wasn't due til Thursday or Friday and i've started spotting this morning. Based on the same happened last month, I reckon I'll be in full flow by Wednesday.

After about 18months of 27 day cycles, last month (cycle 1) was a shorter 25days and it looks like this month will be the same! I wonder why?

@Hollsers92 that's the spirit!

@EverythingNow it is weird how your patterns changed and now!

Quick question, 9dpo and started frequently urinating (hourly). As I've come of the pill since taking it for 10 years I don't actually know what my full menstrual cycle is as haven't had a proper one since early teens. Is the frequent urination normal?

Chooklass · 11/09/2017 11:33

Hey @Syd - that's quite a move, no wonder you are stressed!

I'm 7/8dpo today and, despite my best efforts, symptom spotting has begun! Unusual side-boob tenderness is this month's new symptom. I'm ignoring all the (many) symptoms I've had over the previous cycles!

Hollsers92 · 11/09/2017 12:52

Latest update after my BFN this morning - I'm at work and I can taste a horrible metallic/bloody taste mostly from the roof of my mouth :( never had that before unless I've burned my mouth but I haven't done that recently. Also feeling the warm sensations and slight pulling in my lower abdomen again. Fingers crossed!

EverythingNow sorry to hear af has arrived. It's so frustrating when our cycles mess us around.

Nothing much to report from me. My symptoms are exactly the same as they are every month.

@Betsyboo87 my tracker says it should have been around Wednesday 30th august but I had EWCM on Friday 1st September so I'm potentially only 10dpo

timeisnotaline · 11/09/2017 17:23

Do you really have to wait until af is due to test? I think I'm probably 8dpo or thereabouts.

Hi, can I join you? I'm pretty certain that this month is probably not a goer but af due 19th so I'll try to hold off testing until then

Symptom spotting...
broken out in spots
Dodgy dreams

That's it for now! I think I'm probably 6dpo but only on the basis that I usually have 28 day cycles.
