April 2ww

[PassTheAfterEights]

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

I'm 9dpo and SO bloated. I have literally never had bloating before. My other half has hidden all the pregnancy tests and gobe away for the weekend, so I can't even test! Anyone else still in and waiting to test?

Can I join? I’ve been lurking...10 dpo today and caved into the test urge can anyone else see anything or am I kidding myself? Unused test on the left. I think I’m convincing myself of a line!

I can see the faintest shadow on that @PocketFullofMumbles. When's AF due?

@EnglishIrishRose I'm still in. A while left yet about 6dpo, my bloating yesterday was unreal, so uncomfortable had to undo my top button of my jeans. I usually bloat but I don't think that bad. Good luck!

@PocketFullofMumbles I think I can see something!

Period due Wednesday 😬 is it an evap line though??! I’m not sure what one of those looks like...

@PocketFullofMumbles I thought it saw a line on one of these tests yesterday but couldn't photograph it at all. Used a FRER and got a SLIGHTLY darker but still this could be in my head line. Tested with another FRER this morning and got a much more i don't think this is in your head, I think there's a pretty good chance you might end up with a baby line 😹🤞🏻 we are similar DPO (I'm 10 or maybe 11) so fingers crossed!! Xx

@waitingforbubbles how exciting!! Congratulations 😄 maybe I should buy a frer, but then if it’s a bfn, I’m doubly annoyed because of the price...when is your af due?

af. came in out

Sorry to hear it winter

A faint line is a line, right? This hasn't sunk in at all, will test again tomorrow. Hopefully we have caught a sticky bean x

Hi all,

I'm just beginning my tww now. We dtd on the 15th and twice on the 17th, ov was 18th so I'm really hopeful we have a little bean in there! My cyles are fairly shirt at 25days, so AF is due 1st May.

I tell myself every month that I won't symptom spot, but I still do it (like we all do!) But I have been having lower back ache constantly, my boobs feel heavy and look fuller and I'm constantly tired. I'm only 3dpo so I feel like it's way too early for me to have "symptoms" and it's just PMS symptoms.

I've been pregnant before but sadly my 3month pregnancy ended with an angel. I am having cramps now that felt like my old pregnancy cramps, and I know it's far too early for it to be period cramps, but at the same time is it too early to have little burrowing cramps?

Last month I was absolutely, categorically, 100% convinced we were pg, but it turned out af was just playing games and wanted to be 9days late!
So this month half of my brain is saying don't get your hopes up just to come tumbling down again. But then the other half of my brain is like the little kid jumping on the bed the night before xmas!!

Phew, ok I think I've vented enough today lol!

@Jallebi yes, but I wouldn't call that a faint line. Congratulations!!

Thanks @TinySnowBuddy! I have picked up a couple of CB digitals to check again tomorrow morning.

@PocketFullofMumbles I saw that line - fingers crossed it gets darker for you.

sprinkleofsunshine the bloating is horrible isn't it? I'm a bit worried as I've never had it before. I had to undo my jeans completely yesterday and spent 3 hours on a hot train just feeling like a fat uncomfortable whale!

I tested this morning at 10dpo and BFN. Trying not to worry as my friend who has a baby now said that she tested negative at 10dpo too. Hoping for a BFP in the next few days.

And congrats to you Jallebi

@PocketFullofMumbles my AF was due tomorrow, I'm 12 DPO today . Managed to get a digital positive on a Clearblue this morning- so good to see it in writing!! ☺️

I doubt a FRER would be negative after that test as they are SO sensitive. When is AF due for you?

Brilliant news @waitingforbubbles, congrats again 😄 I’m 11 dpo today and AF is due Wednesday. Just took the attached test and I think it is clearer than yesterday. Hardly daring to hope!!

Congrats @Jallebi and fx for everyone else still hoping...

@PocketFullofMumbles YES!! Definitely darker!! Eeek!!! Xxx

Thanks @EnglishIrishRose and @PocketFullofMumbles.

And congrats @waitingforbubbles and Mumbles. I don't know what to do next - it seems too early join the pregnancy threads. What are you ladies doing?

@Jallebi ooh I hadn't thought of the next step! Maybe we should start our own? April 2018 BFPs...? If there isn't one already!

@waitingforbubbles This exists: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/3211263-December-2018-babies but for the time being I am just lurking.
Let me know if you start a new thread!

@Jallebi my due date is actually showing as 3rd of Jan according to natural cycles! When is yours? X

Mine is 30/12 according to the NHS calculator, so I am actually many weeks behind compared to the December thread. Might let the news sink in a bit and join a January thread once it is created. x

@Jallebi I've just started one and I think tagged you in it- April BFPs in pregnancy.

Anyone else who has had/gets positives is welcome to join!
