Hi - I have been trying for 2 years and I have cut out doing early testing and symptom spotting as much as possible...but this month is the first one trying after lap so I’m really not able to help myself.

Today I’m 8DPO and tempted to test which is insane and I know it’s insane and still I want to test. Argh!! I was just hoping someone feeling similarly here might be able to identify or talk sense into me because TESTING AT 8DPO IS NUTS!

Helen290 · 22/12/2017 14:24

@Mollydog88 yeh everyone is different but I hope you have some luck 🙂

Helen290 · 22/12/2017 14:25

@surreygirl1987 6dpo isn't too early for implantation it can happen between 6-12 days hun

Helen290 · 22/12/2017 14:26

@Colabottles64 don't test it's way to early I tested at 9dpo and got a negative but got my first positive at 10dpo just wait a little longer I know it's hard but it will stop you from feeling crappy if it's a negative 🙂

Colabottles64 · 22/12/2017 14:46

Thanks @helen290 - just hearing someone else say it is a help! I will leave my frer on the shelf ☺️

Step away from the tests! I might invent a pregnancy test holder that syncs with Ovia or Clue. It’d only unlock from 10dpo and only once a day when you get up. I think that’s the only way I’d get over my POAS addiction.

dingdongdigeridoo · 22/12/2017 16:12

I’m 8dpo today and oh my god my boobs are hurting. Had a low level sore throat for days, so it might be a cold coming on...

Colabottles64 · 22/12/2017 16:50

Oh my god it’s just what I need - You need to patent that idea, such a gap in the market 😂

My boobs super tender too and a weird pulsing in my lady parts...flipping symptom spotting, it’s probably the stress of the 2ww bringing it on!

Wendykennedy · 22/12/2017 20:37

Anyone had a really late positive? Due my AF today with usually 5 days of spotting and PMS in the run up. I'm due today, no PMS symptoms and a BFN today not even a squinter! So either my regular cycle has now decided to play tricks on me in my first cycle of TTC or I'm pregnant with no positive test!!!! Angry

Mollydog88 · 23/12/2017 07:45

Couldn’t resist - 9dpo bfn on a frer. Not really a surprise! Quite a bit of bleeding, but not af, boobs feel much less sore...I know you’re not out til it starts but everything’s pointing that way. And I’ve got to go to a wedding today of someone who announced out of the blue she was pregnant last week. Dreading it. :(

dingdongdigeridoo · 23/12/2017 19:49

Some positives can come late Wendy. Are you using a sensitive test? You could have ovulated later than you thought, or simply not have hcg levels. It’s not over til AF comes!

Bloody boobs are driving me mad now. I crossed my arms earlier and it make me squeal in pain. It’d better not be an early AF sneaking up on me.

Wendykennedy · 23/12/2017 20:34

@dingdongdigeridoo
We've used NFP for 4.5 years and my cycle is fairly regular 29-35 days with my EWCM right on schedule and my PMS well in advance that's why I'm confused but petrified to get my hopes up when the scientific tests say BFN! I'm using First Vue from dealz as they are really cheap at €1.50 for 3 but this is our first cycle of first time ttc so I don't know to compare....

You're symptoms sound so positive against any others I've seen with a BFP on here albeit I've only been on about 5 wks

Bibijayne · 24/12/2017 08:02

I'm in my 2WW (cycle 2 TTC#1) and I can't stop symptom spotting. AF/BFP is 2 Jan.

I have a really weird metal taste in my mouth and tingly boobs. But that could just be a cold/ hormones? Right?

I'm having to restrain myself from testing - it's way too early to test - but damnit I want to know.

How do you ladies keep sane in the 2WW?

Bibijayne · 24/12/2017 09:25

Also TMI my cervix is suddenly really high, like crazy high.

Damn I so want to test.

Mollydog88 · 24/12/2017 12:55

I’m out :( 5 days early!!!

AyeAyeFishyPie · 24/12/2017 13:02

AF due today - nothing so far

Miss83 · 24/12/2017 22:16

So I feel like rubbish... Caught the dreaded cold everyone has in work just in time for Christmas. Feel like AF is on its way as well... Two days to go.

That said I hope you all have a lovely and safe Christmas. Good luck to those testing tomorrow... Hope santa brings some BFP's.

Merry Christmas xxx

HaveCourageBeKind · 24/12/2017 23:34

Oh Honey really sorry to hear that babe but at least you have some answrs... definitely wine time tonight x

I’m officially in 2ww... ovulated today after 2 days of + opks yesterday and Friday. We may try dtd tomorrow morning if we are not too tired for good measure... 😂 we only managed 3x during fertile time so fingers x it was enough although I’m not holding too much hope since it’s our first month trying... although slightly freaking out how on earth to stay sane and not symptom spot and not test too early 😂😂😂 ADVICE WELCOME!!!

AF or good news due 8th Jan...

AyeAyeFishyPie · 25/12/2017 02:56

Well good morning and happy Christmas everyone! I took a FRER this morning. As you can see, it's a happy day for us x

Owlpatrol · 25/12/2017 08:36

@AyeAyeFishyPie congratulations and we done for holding off! That's the clearest bfp ever! Have a magical day xx

dingdongdigeridoo · 25/12/2017 08:38

Faint BFP for me too! Thank you to everyone on here who has been so supportive and listened to my moaning.

Cycle 13 was the lucky one for me.
