2dpo & staring down another abyss of symptom analysing, early test resisting, date calculating, FW debriefing crazy brain.

Anyone care to ride it out together? Welcome spotters and distractors alike x

Well that's me. Waited all bloody week to test. FRER this morning BFN followed by an IC then Boots one which I actually bought TM. Don't know why I bothered all BFN then just as I was about to do a 4th Blush AF arrived right on schedule. Oh well. Loving looking at all the lines. Good luck to everyone xx

vickywood3 · 14/04/2018 13:31

OMG @tweetlebee and @passtheaftereights am so happy for you. Am sorry to everyone else who got their AFs, I honestly know how you feel. Am 9dpo today so still hanging in xx

JustLikeTheySaid · 14/04/2018 16:48

I'm still holding on but only BFNs so far. Period not due until next Saturday so too early really.

starwishing · 14/04/2018 16:52

@JustLikeTheySaid my af is due Sunday next week so I'm 5dpo and as you're only a day ahead I'd say you're way too early to even think about testing 😆

starwishing · 14/04/2018 16:53

Although mine is based on a 28 day cycle x

vickywood3 · 14/04/2018 17:19

I am trying not to test until AF is late. I feel more gutted when I have a negative hcg test than actually getting my period. To be honest, I have NO symptoms at all so I think I maybe out this month and I have been getting mild period pain 😭 xx

starwishing · 14/04/2018 17:22

I didn't have any symptoms before my bfp. I was eight weeks before it showed up on a test too!

JustLikeTheySaid · 14/04/2018 18:09

I have the 10mL tests so could show from 6days before. Unlikely I know but testing every morning reduces my anxiety and then didn't cost that much!

Owlpatrol · 14/04/2018 18:57

Good luck ladies still testing! This is the first cycle i don't think I'll test early as i don't think I even ovulated! I got another baby bomb today by a friend only been trying 4 months and she's now 16 weeks! Sigh x

winterwarmers · 14/04/2018 18:59

6dpo no symptoms at all i have a frer for next week, af is due on tuesday but certain it will be late as i ovulated late

EnglishIrishRose · 14/04/2018 20:32

I need help. I'm obssessing over a weird 'tight' feeling and general heaviness in my abdomen. I am 3dpo which is just a mad time to be even thinking about it. I have a super busy week ahead so hopefully I won't think about it much... who am I kidding?

Ahh @lolacola13 so sorry you're down xx is it definite or do you have a few days yet?

Massive well done to all still hanging in there in 2ww 🙌 so ashamed in the face of your discipline and patience!!! Good luck to all and hang in there, the symptom spotting is cruel. Big lecture from DM tonight, think she's guessed I've become a bit one track minded. So hard to explain TTC on the brain though 😫

Thanks @Sammy900 @peachesarenom @vickywood3 and for help with the lines, did a cheapie this evening and the Prime fairy will deliver more FRER's tomorrow 🧚🏼‍♀️🙈 did a cheapie this evening, pic taken @ five mins (the patented @TwittleBee FF collage 😉) & feel there's something but hope it's not an indent 😕

@TwittleBee do you have cheapies / a Boots nearby? Fx for you tomorrow and all yet to test x

PassTheAfterEights I have everything crossed for you. I think I can see something.

lolacola13 · 14/04/2018 22:07

@PassTheAfterEights I'm slightly embarrassed to admit I'm only 7/8dpo ... I got a lh overnight I think between Thursday and fri last week . I don't know what came over me when I thought it would be a good idea. I started doing crazy maths thinking "well if I ov on Thursday then it's 9 dpo... and I could have implanted at 6dpo... plus I had some cramping during week and though oh my I implanted at 5days..... "...... lesson learnt. AGAIN... period due in about 8 days . Just feeling so unpregnant.... I have two dc and with both I just KNEW the fact I don't have that feeling is making me feel a little blue . I'l get over it lol. Pity party for one

@lolacola13 oh babe 😂 bless you, don't be silly - we've all been there x you would feel unpregnant now, for all our symptoms it's impossible to know whether it's pregnancy or progesterone so don't lose heart! Get yourself some more FRER's for next week!!

Thanks @peachesarenom keep you posted.

@PassTheAfterEights bless me indeed ! 😂...And this is alllll whilst knowing that I don't fully trust any test when it's sooo early Iv had indents that looked positive etc and I'm noticing ic throwing up indents and water marks too. So I really don't have anyone to blame but myself . I'll test again on wed maybe . Xxxx

sexnotgender · 15/04/2018 06:42

Will be on the hunt for a chemist this morning. On day 30 and still no sign of AF!

HidCat · 15/04/2018 07:41

@sexnotgender 🤞 for you.

Just going into TWW myself. Exciting times.

Eek @sexnotgender good luck, keep us posted!

Happy 2ww @HidCat may it be a quick one!

Pretty sure I've been photographing indents - another VFL but no development on a cheapie this morning at 12dpo Sad

Hello All! I'm 33 and TTC #1, this is our second cycle. I'm currently 7dpo and have experienced a fair few cramps and twinges since. However last night I had an awful lot of pain in my left breast and around the nipple, it appeared to be shooting from my underarm. It's a waiting game to find out if it's a good sign or possibly a sign of PMS which I've never experienced before..

EnglishIrishRose · 15/04/2018 09:51

PassTheAfterEights I really can see a very faint line on those tests, hope it develops for you. I hope I can hold out and not test until we go away on holiday on the 24th...
Does anyone know, if ny luteal phase is short (13 days) does that mean I should test on 13dpo?

PassTheAfterEights · 15/04/2018 10:37

Thanks @EnglishIrishRose the FRER's will hopefully be conclusive when they arrive. I reckon 13dpo sounds realistic for an accurate result, keeping everything crossed for you!

Monopo1y · 15/04/2018 11:15

Can I have opinions on this please? What other tests do you recommend getting to be sure as this is only a cheapy? Could it be an evap line?
