AF arrived today so I am now hoping for a March bfp.
This is cycle 6, ttc #2. Aged 32.

Never started a thread before, so hopefully you will join & we can symptom spot together!

Congratulations @Redrosebelle and @HeresMeh! Exciting times!

Emilyrose1290 · 14/03/2018 19:39

Congrats to BFPs brilliant news Smile

Owlpatrol · 14/03/2018 19:57

Argh got really achy legs tonight and crampy calves .... been googling all night...

Emilyrose1290 · 14/03/2018 20:05

Ooh @owlpatrol it’s a good sign I think. I’m a bit down, so excited yesterday but my tingly nipples have gone now and I’ve got 2 huge spots on my chin that I normally get before AF so feeling like it might not be this month after all...

hayleyfx · 14/03/2018 20:24

@Owlpatrol Definitely, positive mental attitude! Hoping it helps Grin
@Emilyrose don’t get too discouraged! My last pregnancy in October 2017 I had absolutely no symptoms of being pregnant. I had some cramps and thought af was coming so took a test at 9dpo (to confirm what I thought I knew) and it was a BFP - such a huge but wonderful shock! I didn’t experience any symptoms for a week or two after that also and I made it to twelve weeks (sadly lost my precious baby) so... you’re not out until af shows! Early pregnancy symptoms & pms are very alike too so keep a positive attitude! 😉

PassTheAfterEights · 14/03/2018 20:30

Me too @sodababy2 ordered some FRER's 🚫 will give them to DH when they arrive. Feel symptomy and not helping manage my expectations, got the headaches again & peeing a lot now too. Hope you can get into something else - rewatching ER for me! Xx

Emilyrose1290 · 14/03/2018 20:32

Thanks @hayleyfx that’s really reassuring Smile

Woody096 · 14/03/2018 21:15

Congratulations to all the bfps! Such lovely news!

Welcome newbies... no rules on the March bus, so April bfps or any kind of bogs are welcome!

Nothing to report here only on cd11 so probably another week to go before ovulation ( helpfully timed for when dh is away) x

More BFPs 😁

FF has now detected ovulation for me. So god knows what's going on 😂 hoping if I did ovulate that I was covered because I'm always on shift around the time I am supposed to have ovulated 😣

Not sure about that big dip tho....

March bus - bfp’s welcome.
Pumpkinbee · 15/03/2018 10:23

Congrats to all with BFPs. I'm 7dpo and just feeling so impatient. Not been feeling much of anything except tired, heart burn and the odd twinge or cramp which could be anything.

PassTheAfterEights · 15/03/2018 10:31

Anyone have any views on fmu / smu / any other u for testing?

I know CBD say to use fmu but many prefer second wee of the day.

caveat I know it's all nonsense and if you're preggo you'll know about it soon enough just trying to stick to & get the most out of one FRER order this month!

hayleyfx · 15/03/2018 11:11

@PassTheAfterEights when I was pregnant last year I got a BFP at 9dpo and I think I took it at about 6pm. Had been drinking plenty water and juice that day as well. So I think it’s different for everyone Hmm I took a Tesco pregnancy test at 9dpo then frer at 10dpo and the line was a bit darker but I was pretty impressed with the Tesco one considering it’s not even an early response test!

I’m 4dpo now and making myself wait until at least 10dpo to use a frer, hoping I can wait that long. I just want to know lol 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

sodababy2 · 15/03/2018 11:15

@PassTheAfterEights I don't think it makes a huge amount of difference in my experience. And if you're testing early it stands to reason you'd get a darker test later in the day. I think as long as you've got a decent length of wee hold then test at any time of day.

How are you doing? Any symptoms? My nipples are still very tingly! Staying strong until Saturday!

PassTheAfterEights · 15/03/2018 11:22

Thanks both! My experience with only bfp (chemical) was timing of wee didn't matter. Noticed the CBD freebies specify FMU, thought was interesting.

IKWYM @hayleyfx hang in there x

@sodababy2 was starting to get a bit nuts, thanks for the inspo Grin sore boobs, backache, headaches, dreams, twinges - trying to ignore the lot til Sat :/

Owlpatrol · 15/03/2018 12:34

Same here the earliest I can test is next Thursday going to be a long week!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 15/03/2018 14:52

@xLauraa. I thought I might have ovulated on cd15, which is why I had my day 21 (22 in my case) test this morning but I had a bit of blood streaked ewcm earlier! I also have a UTI, stupid dtd lol.

xLauraa · 15/03/2018 15:12

@LookingAtTheStars89 my chart is saying I possibly ovulated on CD15 too. Practically twins 💁🏼‍♀️
Oh no!! 😂 typical!
Had my bloods done this morning. Now the wait to see if I have actually ovulated or not 😥 I'm not sure what happens if there's no ovulation do you??

Peachy92 · 15/03/2018 15:12

@PassTheAfterEights @the Phoebe comment, i'm so friggin happy someone else does this. This always pops into my head just before AF. I think I would actually go and buy some tiny Addidas if i got my BFP!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 15/03/2018 15:48

@xLauraa. I actually have no idea. Knowing the NHS, they will say "Lose weight" I swear, if you break your arm the solution is "Lose weight" Hmm Grin When will you get your results? I'm going to keep bd'ing just in case.

Alex2790 · 15/03/2018 15:50

Feeling a bit blah today just having one of those days were your fed up and thinking when is it going to be my turn period due on monday but it gets me so anxious around this time of the month as i cant take any more disappointment. Or anyone that appears to be super fertile and getting pregnant in the first month x

xLauraa · 15/03/2018 16:02

@LookingAtTheStars89 😂😂 that's so true! I'm trying to lose it but it comes off sooooooooo slowly!
I've got an appt on Wednesday with my GP! 🤞🏼 then AF is due Thursday-Monday

Peachy92 · 15/03/2018 16:06

Out again :( Can't believe it can be so difficult when you're actually trying to do this, when people get pregnant from one night stands. Sex ed makes it look so easy doesn't it. Sperm meets egg and that's all there is to it! Good luck ladies, hope some more catch this bus before April's takes off.

EverythingNow · 15/03/2018 16:17

Afternoon all! Sorry this is a bit tmi!

I’m on cd10 and for the last two days have been having lots of slightly pink tinged cm. thought it could be ovulation bleeding but when I took an opk about an hour ago there’s is hardly the faintest second line, like barely visible.

Not DTD since cd7 so it’s not from that.

I had a really short cycle in January only 16 days long, I’m really hoping that’s not happening again.

MuddlingThrough1724 · 15/03/2018 16:37

And I'm out. Just bleugh. My body has decided 21 day cycles are the new thing.

Good luck to the rest of you and congrats to those with bfps!
