So I'm currently 3dpo, I think? Didn't use opks this month so that's just based on what my fertility apps are telling me. Far too early days to be getting any symptoms as of yet, I think if we conceived this cycle any tell tale signs or symptoms may start appearing at the end of the week.

Age: 25
Ttc: baby number 2
Cycle: 3 (hopefully third time lucky!)
AF due: 28/07
Cycle length: around 33 days

Who else is with me? Hopefully this is our month ladies!!!

Hi @Momma22 I'm actually quite far along in the 2ww but thought I'd join if you don't mind?

Age 27
TTC #1
Cycle #2
DPO 13 (possibly! Might have ovulated later than I think)

AF is due tomorrow according to my app but that is still working on a 28 day cycle. I was 5 days late last month with all the pregnancy symptoms you could think of! (Apparently this is quite common 1st cycle off the pill) so I don't know if I'm a 28 day cycle anymore!
So I'm hoping to hold out till the weekend to test if AF hasn't arrived but I may cave on Friday!

Treaclepie19 · 18/07/2018 18:05

I will join you! Not using ovulation sticks or anythig this month but I'm guessing I'm only about 1dpo because my luteal phase has always been short.

Age:28
Ttc: #2
Cycle: 1
AF due: 27/7
Cycle length: 24 days

Treaclepie19 · 19/07/2018 11:40

Trying to work out if I needed to fit in one last dtd for this cycle. AF due in 8 days so most likely not but I do have a short LP...
It'd be tough to fit in though with the next few days being so busy.

Delilah7 · 19/07/2018 12:54

Hi Ladies. Hope you don't mind me joining!
Age:22
Ttc:1
Cycle: 3
AF due: 25th July
Cycle length: 28 days

I've definitely been feeling exhausted, I feel different but could still be down to me only coming off pill in May.
Had lots of Cm after ovulation though. Creamy and watery so whoknows. Send you lots of baby dust xx

Delilah7 · 19/07/2018 12:55

I'm 9dpo too btw!

Momma22 · 19/07/2018 15:10

Just out of interest @purplestar9 have you resisted the urge to test yet? If so did you get your bfp yet? Fingers crossed for you!

Momma22 · 19/07/2018 15:17

Okay, so I'm now 5dpo. Boobs feeling a little sore around the sides, which could mean anything because I tend to get sore boobs right before my period anyway, but usually not this early? Also feeling really tired and getting some light cramps now and again. Could just all be in my head though? 5dpo is still very early to be feeling anything at all & the brain can be very powerful! Unless of course I ovulated earlier than I thought

Delilah7 · 19/07/2018 15:31

@Momma22 like you said you could of ovulated sooner and it could be what we all hope it is. Maybe wait a couple more days and see how you feel. I'd never tell you not to test but I do know how disappointing it is when you test early and see a BFN. X

Momma22 · 19/07/2018 15:47

@Delilah7 totally agree I think a negative test is even more disappointing than AF arriving in a way. Those 3 minutes of anticipation followed by a disappointing bfn are just the worst! Will definitely do my best to hold out until the day of my missed period to test. Maybe I did ovulate sooner than I thought? After all I have only used opks in one of the 3 cycles Ive been trying so I really only know what happened that cycle and not got the total jist of what the 'norm' is for me ifyswim?

Can I join please!?
Recognise some of you lovely ladies @purplestar9 @Delilah7 👋

I am 10dpo today. Temp has dropped a bit today so not feeling overly positive but been feeling so dizzy and sick. I wretched in the supermarket looking at a pasta salad 🤢 but I think it must be just AF symptoms or psychosomatic, as I think my temp would be higher if I was pg!

I am testing on Sunday when AF is due.

Delilah7 · 19/07/2018 16:44

@Momma22 just wait it out as long as you can. If you wanna test, then do it. But I agree AF is more accepting than a BFN.

@FlapJackered hello you, hoping we could all have some BFPs!

Momma22 · 19/07/2018 22:38

Quick update! Bit tmi but ... Went to the loo earlier this evening, wiped and I noticed a bit of pinkish blood on the toilet paper. Had nothing since. Could this be implantation bleeding as early as 5dpo, as I've said in previous posts I'm not 100% when I ovulated so 5dpo is just an educated guess. Don't want to get my hopes up too much but I can't think what else it could be considering AF is still over a week away?

OP posts:
Delilah7 · 19/07/2018 23:02

@Momma22 could be... I'd say at 5dpo it might be too early but you could be even a day later and then it would be between then 6/12dpo where you can get it x

Momma22 · 19/07/2018 23:22

@Delilah7 thanks for your replies, I hadn't realised you could get it as early as 6dpo! That's really encouraging to know. Went to the loo again and the pinkish spotting has reappeared on the tissue, nothing in my pants though (sorry if this is tmi 🙈) Trying hard not to get my hopes up but i really can't think what else this could be

purplestar9 · 20/07/2018 07:20

@Momma22 I caved and tested on Wednesday eve. BFN. We have a busy few days and wanted to test before. But I think I ovulated late so not completely out yet!

@FlapJackered hello again! 😊

How are we all feeling today? I'm just kind of preparing myself for AF in a few days, don't really feel anything pregnancy related right now, but I did have quite bad trapped wind yesterday!

Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 07:25

@Momma22 well keep hopeful then! Just try not to get to accepting of that you could be pregnant as like you said it is early! But the signs point to it! I'm 10dpo and had no bleeding. My jeans feel tighter but I do wonder whether now I'm off the pill I'm just putting on more weight lol boobs don't feel sore but feel bigger than normal lol.

FlapJackered · 20/07/2018 07:34

@Momma22 that does sound like implantation bleeding! 🤞🏻

@purplestar9 I have got some toxic wind too! 💨 😂

Can you girl tell me what you think of my chart?
I thought I was likely out as my temp dipped yesterday but it has gone up today the tiniest amount now.
I am not going to be able to think of anything else now until AF arrived/bfn.

2ww anyone?
FlapJackered · 20/07/2018 07:39

*girls

Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 08:08

@FlapJackered what do you use to temp and what app Hun?

FlapJackered · 20/07/2018 08:33

I use natural cycles and the natural cycles thermometer.
Also do Fertility friend - slightly over obsessed 🙄

2ww anyone?
Treaclepie19 · 20/07/2018 09:02

I don't think you're out by that chart!
Fingers crossed.

Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 09:14

@FlapJackered I'd say that too!

Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 13:40

Got some very strange cramps going on. The ones fhat give you the chills abit... no implantation bleeding but some watery Cm on toilet paper.

Momma22 · 20/07/2018 13:40

@purplestar9 keep us updated if you do get your BFP! Fingers crossed for you! Remember you're not out this month until AF arrives!

@Delilah7 trying hard not to get my hopes up, because I know sometimes our bodies can do crazy things! Hopefully your jeans feeling tighter is what we all hope it is! I remember being so bloated in the early days of pregnancy with my little girl I couldn't fasten my jeans either and basically lived in leggings. Maybe it's not excess weight and it's either bloating due to AF being due or you could be pregnant? Are you planning on testing soon?

OP posts:
Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 13:41

@Momma22 honestly my jeans just feel tighter in general so hoping it could be pregnancy but like you've said we aren't getting our hopes up. I'm trying to be positive that any weird pains aren't to do with my AF as I know when I'm due now. I've been regular all three cycles so!
How're you feeling?
