That was meant to be a smiley face. What the hell?!

Fia256 · 21/11/2017 12:08

I had a bit of cramping this morning. Felt like period cramps. Was almost expecting to come down with s&d bug as it felt like the start of that. Nothing came of it though and gone now!

This wait is driving me mad as it is! Especially when I could be anywhere between 5dpo and not ovulating at all! Argh!!!

Merrz · 21/11/2017 12:15

Aww sorry @Gem Congrats to the BFPS
I'm 8dpo and planning to hold off testing until the 30th if af doesn't show by then so i'll still be on the bus too Smile
The only very slight symptom i've had is a bit of backache from about 6dpo, but i wasn't sure if that's a sign of BFP or not? How can it make your back sore at this early stage?

MissDollyMix · 21/11/2017 12:35

That’s kind of what I feel too Merrz. Backache was really bad last night but slightly better today. I do occasionally get lower back ache so perhaps (for me) it has nothing whatsoever it has nothing to do with pregnancy. Just off to the shops. Am absolutely not going to go into Boots and buy a HPT. Absolutely not.

Merrz · 21/11/2017 12:57

Haha MissDollyMix be strong. When are you due to test?

according to google backache can be a sign of very early pregnancy, it's to do with the hormones which relax ligaments in your back. But i'm the same, an occasional sore back isn't unheard of for me either so think i'm just over analysing it, like i am with everything else haha.

LostMyBaubles · 21/11/2017 13:47

Fia it's sooo complicated isn't it!

Thank you everyone

All those aches and pains I had have gone now I'm symptom less. Like nothing apart from the odd taste.

Hopefully all that pain was implantation and hormones going haywire

LostMyBaubles · 21/11/2017 13:48

At isn't due until 30th so will be very early

HeresMeh · 21/11/2017 13:51

Hey folks!

I’m a long time lurker on this board and you’ll never know what a gigantic education you’ve all given me in this insane journey!

I’m telling you, they should show this forum to kids instead of teaching Sex Ed in primary schools! Grin

I’m 6dpo on CD 21. Due AF next Wednesday but so far not feeling a friggen thing! Every time I get a belly twinge I just end up farting! So disappointing! Haha!

Mainly just wanted to say thank you to all you ladies for sharing your experiences, good and bad... you’re all doing a marvellous job wherever you are in this crazy process!

Merrz · 21/11/2017 14:00

Heehee HeresMeh that made me laugh.
Looks like there are a few of us due af middle of next week ish so fingers crossed for lots of bfps!

SnoozyMcSnoozeFace · 21/11/2017 14:50

Welcome HeresMeh!

I'm not feeling much of anything either. Grumpy and tired but that's usual when AF is approaching! My back hurts too...but that's probably because I'm sitting in a strange position 😂

LostMyBaubles · 21/11/2017 14:50

Heres loved that lol

All my weirdness has gone 🤔
Apart from a smidge of heartburn

Ah this 2ww is horrid!

Sugarskulllover · 21/11/2017 15:11

Hi

Hope you don’t mind me jumping on the bus! Recently signed up to MN as me and my DH are TTC #1 and I am 27. I came off microgynon after 12 years (which now I say it out loud is crazy!) in October. I had a period 2 weeks later so this is cycle 1 I think. Using Flo and Ovia to help me track and AF due 29/30 Nov according to these.

Im 7dpo I think again not really sure if that’s right. Had really sore nipples from 3dpo and the pain has subsided to back pain since waking this morning. I’m really not trying to obsess over it and have only brought hpt from Amazon. Going to try and not test until next Wednesday as that’s when Ovia is suggesting.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes and from reading this post it’s so lovely to see so many getting. Their BFP’s! Smile

Triskaidekaphilia · 21/11/2017 15:15

My symptoms have eased off a bit too, so thinking they were just pre-AF symptoms. Really feel like I need to test soon because I'd rather get a BFN now and another next week than wait and get hopeful until monday and be disappointed. Hopefully ICs arrive tomorrow.

Rememberallball · 21/11/2017 15:36

BetaHCG bloods done this morning and got to call the surgery in a couple of hours to see if they can pick up the results from the computer system or call the hospital for me. If not I've got to try the hospital path lab myself and see if they'll either give me the result or send it over to the surgery otherwise I've got to try again tomorrow and hope that it comes through quickly.

I'm actually not happy that they don't seem to think it important enough to ensure they get it for me today!!

Flatwhite32 · 21/11/2017 17:40

Thank you @Hardheadedwoman39! Xx

SnoozyMcSnoozeFace · 21/11/2017 17:43

Rememberallball that sounds like a right pain. Did you have any luck getting hold of them?

Welcome Sugarskulllover looks like we'll be testing around the same time!

Sugarskulllover · 21/11/2017 18:02

Thank you Snoozymcsnoozeface!

Oh wow. It’s definitely an exciting time Grin

Triskaidekaphilia · 21/11/2017 20:10

Did you have any luck Rememberallball? They need to realise these things are important dammit!

Welcome HeresMeh and Sugarskulllover, quite exciting that there's quite a few of us testing next week Smile

MissDollyMix · 21/11/2017 20:32

Feeling pretty down again tonight. For some reason I was hanging so much on it working this month. Hmm. We’re nearly running out of space on this board! At this rate we’ll have to make a November mini bus thread! Grin

Fia256 · 21/11/2017 20:36

Ah @MissDollyMix it’s not over till AF arrives! When are you due to test? I do know what you mean though. I went into this month feeling certain it would happen. Now not so much

Rememberallball · 21/11/2017 20:37

Emailed gp surgery - the results aren’t in and, as it’s not listed as urgent, they won’t call and chase the results.

Called local hospital - gp samples go to a different hospital about 20 miles away who work hill around 10pm so, just because it’s not on the screen, it doesn’t mean it won’t be done tonight still - though results won’t be back till tomorrow “sometime” at the earliest (quote, unquote!!)

Spoke to surgery again - no, they won’t ask one of the Drs to look on the system that they can see hospital results that have been completed but not formally sent out, I’ll just have to try ringing after 2pm tomorrow!!

No-one seems to care that it’s important to us - in fact, our futures depend on it!!!

StrawberryLemonade · 21/11/2017 21:21

Why have you had beta hcg bloods taken remember? Does it make a difference to your management today? It's hard but try to think of the alternative perspective and the pressure the GP surgery is under. I know that doesn't help you though and I hope the results are in tomorrow.

I stupidly tested this morning. AF not due for 6 days so obviously BFN so I was being an idiot but the tests at work were looking at me... Blush

Rememberallball · 21/11/2017 23:43

I had betaBCG bloods done on the instruction of my clinic. Bloods 12dp5dt to assess whether ivf worked or not

StrawberryLemonade · 22/11/2017 06:10

Ah ok - sorry I missed the IVF bit. Will be keeping everything crossed for you getting results today.

Fia256 · 22/11/2017 06:37

I think I finally ovulated yesterday!! Only a week late after it seemingly delaying itself constantly!! So I very much doubt I’ll get a bfp this month, let alone in November, but I will stay on here anyway until the bitter end Grin
