Figured I'd start this up before we completely fill the other without a link.

Do you have any symptoms?? @nk1605

LookingAtTheStars89 · 12/12/2017 08:17

Second day of being late. Bfn on co-op 25miu test. Think i might be out :-(

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 08:19

@Gem173 thanks! Im not letting myself get too excited though in case it turns out to be nothing. I've had mild cramps on and off from 6dpo and sort of like scratchy/tingly feeling at times, like I needed to itch inside haha. And just recently I've started to get sweet smelling CM, and literally feels like I pee myself it can be so wet sometimes! My cervix is very high and soft as well, but I've heard cervical position is not a good indicator as it can change throughout the day so not relying on that too much.

How are you getting on?

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 08:21

@LookingAtTheStars89 have you used a frer now that you're late? Maybe it's just your hcg levels are high enough yet for the 25miu test

ImpatientMammy · 12/12/2017 08:33

Ahhhh @nk1605 I can definitely see it!!! Congrats 😆😆 x

ImpatientMammy · 12/12/2017 08:35

I hope something happens for you soon @LookingAtTheStars89 must be so frustrating. No AF can only be a good sign though x

RandomUsernameHere · 12/12/2017 08:36

I can see it too, congratulations!x

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 08:42

Thanks everyone 😀 hopefully tomorrow's test is darker cos this one is a real squinter. Fx for everyone else!!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 12/12/2017 08:59

@nk1605. I haven't done a frer yet, they don't sell them in the village I live in. They sell answer tests, which look identical to frers but I don't know if they are the same miu?

@ImpatientMammy. Yeah I hope so. I was predicted to ovulate on the 27th/28th by Glow but I got really slippery ewcm between Friday and Sunday just gone so I maybe ovulated then? That's be like cd 23 though lol, is that even possible??

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 09:29

@nk1605, well 5 dpo and have light pain in and around my right ovary. Not sure what that could be? Fx your test darkens! Proof SMEP does work!!

ImpatientMammy · 12/12/2017 09:47

Well I may have just got 10 pregnancy tests in the post I can't see me being able to wait till the morning to be honest 🤦🏻‍♀️😆 x

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 10:35

@LookingAtTheStars89 if you scroll to the bottom of this link it lists out pregnancy test brands according to their sensitivity www.early-pregnancy-tests.com/compare

Hope that helps!

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 10:39

@Gem173 definitely! And the thing is, I didn't even do the skip a day and dtd one last time as DP was travelling. And we also missed one dtd during the every other day phase, but it was v early on so probably didn't have any effect.
Good luck smep gives you a bfp this month 🍀

kirinm · 12/12/2017 10:43

Can I join? Didn't think I'd be testing in December but possibly will be. Likely to be restricted to sex one day before ovulation did to Christmas issues. Do you think there's still a chance if you DTD on CD11 only? I tend to ovulate CD13 or 14.

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 11:16

@nk1605 I’ve done the exact same missed one day and then didn’t dtd after a break day either! So fx!! Xx

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 14:08

Got some weird feelings going on down below. Light pulling pains and aches, not sure if it’s real of just imagining it x

hungryradish · 12/12/2017 14:16

Congrats @nk1605 it's looking promising!

Fx for everyone else.

LostMyBaubles · 12/12/2017 14:22

Gem that sounds promising!

Did anyone buy any cough medicine?

I bought some from the local pharmacy only £2.50
On my 2nd dose of today and I'm getting cramps lol think it might give me a dodgy tum!

hungryradish · 12/12/2017 14:31

CD33 & no sign of af at all. I had cramps on & off for about a week but they seem to have stopped. Not getting my hopes up as my cycles are still regulating post-pill (only stopped end of step) however I do find it strange that I was cramping & now not & no af to explain the cramps.

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 14:41

@hungryradish sounds very promising ! When are you due to test?

@LostMyBaubles I haven’t bought any no, but will look out for some next cycle if this cycle doesn’t work !

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 14:56

Just got offered a new job, same company so still entitled to maternity leave.. I think.. very positive day.. shame it’s going so slow!! Just want to get to cd 28 and test, but only on cd 22 !

LookingAtTheStars89 · 12/12/2017 14:57

@hungryradish I'm in the same boat and on the same cycle day as you. Cramps on and off but no flo.

hungryradish · 12/12/2017 15:15

@Gem173 I'm not too sure as I have no idea when I ovulated etc. I'm sure you're not imaging the sensations you have! Maybe just more aware of them perhaps. When are you testing? Also congrats on the job :D

How interesting @lookingatthestars89 - think we're the same age too assuming your birth year is 89? When will you be testing?

LookingAtTheStars89 · 12/12/2017 15:26

@hungryradish. Yep, I'm 28. I tested today on a 25miu test but it was negative so I will test in two days time. What about you? How long is your cycle normally?

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 15:57

Testing on or before the 19th Dec :) as that’s when af is due. Have a shorter luteal phase of 11/12 days. @hungryradish fx you get a bfp when you test!
