Hi all,

Just started the 2WW (I think) as I’m pretty sure I ovulated yesterday/today based on Flo & the bloatedness I’ve had...just wondered if anyone was at the same stage as me and how they were feeling about it all? This is TTC #1 for me xx

Just tested again, ic and frer both negative so I have no idea, will test again on Sunday

How's everyone else doing?

DreamyCat · 01/02/2018 10:49

@DaisyMay25 Sorry to hear that Daisy, I hope you get a positive soon.

I realised that I am only approximately 5dpo today, no idea how I got my dates mixed up and thought I was further past ovulation. Foolishly I did a pregnancy test yesterday and OF COURSE it was negative...

Pob13 · 01/02/2018 10:49

Upset stomache - symptom? (clutching at straws)

Karigan1 · 01/02/2018 11:20

Do you not drive yourselves crazy sympton spotting? I just tell myself it won’t change the outcome and I either am or I aren’t lol. It’s how I resist testing too!

eatingthoughts · 01/02/2018 14:00

DaisyMay25 howmany days pdo are you? It might still be too early to test. I truly hope you'll get your bfp soon. 🌼
Karigan1 any tiny twinge gives me so much happiness i think I'm just desperate lol. I think we all are overthinking symptoms i thought that's normal lol?

DaisyMay25 · 01/02/2018 14:49

@eatingthoughts I'm 7/8dpo but I didn't get AF last month just some weird spotting so I don't know what my body is doing. I say I'll wait until Sunday but I know how impatient I am haha.

eatingthoughts · 01/02/2018 14:55

Yeah i know the feeling, i wanted to test today but then i knew it's only 5 pdo and said to myself are you joking man you need to wait lol. 8 days is still quite early as some ladies don't get bpf for quite a while after implantation. Fingers crossed 🤞

Karigan1 · 01/02/2018 15:07

The egg might not even implant until 10 days and without that you won’t have enough hcg to prompt a positive. Before 10
days is a definite no no.

Karigan1 · 01/02/2018 15:08

Bearing in mind that’s 10 days past ovulation too. Ovulation can be up to 72hrs after a positive ovulation prediction so from day you get a hit on the opk it could be 13 days later that egg implants..... don’t waste the money ladies.

DaisyMay25 · 01/02/2018 15:26

@Karigan1 I get what you're saying but I'm in CD46 so I test now and again because clearly my body isn't right.

Karigan1 · 01/02/2018 15:38

Ah that’s different. I was more thinking of those testing on day 8 or 9. Not people on a long cycle. Then you’re supposed to test once a week or something.

Karigan1 · 01/02/2018 15:52

Anyway if you’re on CD 46 you can’t be testing early

eatingthoughts · 01/02/2018 16:56

What symptoms are you having lovely people?
I don't know if it's in my head but I'm cramping since ovulation and also really hungry, tired. Boobs are heavy but nothing special. No increased cm but maybe it's too early to say.

DaisyMay25 · 01/02/2018 17:05

@eatingthoughts haha all of them! My boobs are a bit sore and heavy, I'm super tired, feeling sick and back is starting to hurt, it's hard to not symptom spot! Recently I've felt like a gush down there, haven't noticed anything changing but feels like a big fish for about five minutes, very strange! Waiting is so so hard! When are you testing?

eatingthoughts · 01/02/2018 17:18

DaisyMay25 bless ya you have all the symptoms as well, that's like some sweet torture isn't. I forgot the sickness, went to lidls yesterday and felt the need to drink some juice which i don't really drink usually so i thought that's weird and then felt really nauseous but i have a horrible feeling it's all in my head. I just can't be positive after the miscarriage. I suppose it's been only 2 months of trying so maybe it's too early i don't know. I'll be testing on Sunday, it will be 9 dpo. The last pregnancy showed up 6 days before the period was due so if i am pregnant it will show i think. I'm going crazy 😁 You've made me giggle with that big fish stop joking woman no fish is good down there lol. Wait and don't test. That sounds like a joke doesn't lol

HappyThoughts7 · 01/02/2018 21:25

Okay ladies, I know we’re all trying hard not to get carried away, but I’m either 8/9 DPO, and have just had the smallest pink stains on loo roll when having a wee (sorry TMI). I’ve never had an spotting or early bleeding in my period history...could it be IB? Xx

OP posts:
DaisyMay25 · 01/02/2018 21:45

@HappyThoughts7 ooo could be!! Fingers crossed for you!!

Pob13 · 01/02/2018 22:20

Anyone seen the Clearblue TV advert? Am I meant to be testing with my DH in the room? Do women actually do that?

HappyThoughts7 · 02/02/2018 06:49

Hmmm, quite a bit more blood this morning, mainly pink/red. I’ve never had my period start early since coming off the pill, and I still have 5 days til AF due, so a little confused! X

OP posts:
DaisyMay25 · 02/02/2018 07:01

@Pob13 I time it for when he's at work haha, it's weird they're just sat on the bathroom floor!
@HappyThoughts7 could still be implantation bleeding, how long ago did you come off the pill?

Pob13 · 02/02/2018 08:23

Daisy - thats what I do. Also, who sits on the bathroom floor?! Gross.
Happy - dont lose hope yet. Our bodies dont like to make it easy for us.

eatingthoughts · 02/02/2018 08:54

Morning ladies!
HappyThoughts7 fingers crossed for you! That's probably implantation bleeding! So exciting isn't 😊

Mimilicious013 · 02/02/2018 10:48

fx for you @happy. hope it is ib.keep us updated
lm also 8/9 dpo, backache and cramps. I honestly feel like af is on her way but that would be really early.
ohh @daisy, was hoping to log on to a clearer bfp. fx the baby is still in the making. any new symptoms?
@pob, poas is a private affair here
any plans for the weekend ladies.

MrzE · 02/02/2018 11:05

I'm symptom spotting like crazy today. I've been trying to hold off doing a test, but the exciteable silly bugger in me won out and of course it was a BFN. My husband is away for the weekend so need to look after myself when I'm feeling rough. 😩

@happythoughts7 - fx for you. Keep us posted.

Penny31 · 02/02/2018 12:08

What does lots of cm mean a week before af???? I thought I ovulated a week ago...
