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!!!

@Delilah7 I think any symptom out of the ordinary is probably a good sign!

Is anyone testing tomorrow or Sunday?

Momma22 · 20/07/2018 13:58

@Delilah7 if you've been regular all 3 cycles, at least you know if you are late it's a very good sign! Do you usually get pains before AF are they similar to what you're feeling now? Honestly, I feel much the same as I did yesterday, really tired but I had a really bad nights sleep last night so that could be why? My brain was in overdrive last night thinking 'hmm am I pregnant, am I not?'

@FlapJackered had a sharp pain on my left hand side too. Hopefully it isn't wind hahaha

Delilah7 · 20/07/2018 14:01

@Momma22 I'd normally get them the week of the period which would be next Monday... but it doesn't feel like that sort of cramping. It's more than one where you have to blow out your
Mouth to compose yourself haha aww, yeah that sucks when your brain is going into pregnancy overdrive lol. It'll happen. I promise

purplestar9 · 20/07/2018 14:37

@FlapJackered haha! I am so bloated and have really bad trapped wind today, it's so uncomfortable! And I have got a headache which feels a bit like the 'hormonal' headaches I used get when on the pill. So don't know if that is due to AF on the way.

Treaclepie19 · 20/07/2018 14:43

I'm about 3dpo and so flipping hopeful. I have no idea why, it's only our first cycle. It's taken 4 or 5 when I miscarried and with my son.

PeanutButterJellyTime2 · 20/07/2018 17:03

I'm waiting too. AF due in around 6 days. I had sharp pains on Mon afternoon/tues morning on and off on my left hand side low down but I could be reading in to things. I've had a couple of days of feeling quite queasy but I'm trying to remind myself it's probably all in my head.
I did a test last night and got an extremely faint line (partner could see it!) but I think it's likely an evap line.

Torture!

purplestar9 · 20/07/2018 17:35

@Momma22 thank you, I will. Are you any closer to getting your BFP?

hatethesnow · 20/07/2018 20:57

I would like to join please 😬

Age:36 (37 in a few weeks)
TTC: #1
Cycle: 11
AF due: 31st July
Cycle length: 24 days

Starting to think I've left it too late to TTC.

Fraggleface · 20/07/2018 21:43

Hi, can I join too please Smile

Age: 36
TTC: No. 2 (DD 21 months)
Cycle 1
AF due c.30 July (c.2dpo)
Cycle length: varies either 29 or 33 since DD born. Think this is a longer one (based on charting bbt), otherwise I’m about 6dpo

Promised myself I wouldn’t symptom spot, test early etc, etc. Already looking at frers on amazon and sure I’ve had more cramping than usual in the last few days. DD1 was unplanned and we didn’t found out til c7 weeks so this is all new.

FlapJackered · 21/07/2018 05:09

I am out! AF turned up this morning 😢
Good luck to all of you lovely ladies 🤞🏻

Langpants · 21/07/2018 07:05

So sorry to hear this. Hugs to you. Xx

Langpants · 21/07/2018 07:13

Morning all,

I’d like to join, please.

Age:35
TTC: #1
Cycle: 1
AF due: 31st July
Cycle length: 28 days

I’m 4dpo and having some crazy symptoms. I know it’s impossible to have pregnancy symptoms so early, but I’ve had heartburn which I never ever get, mix between constipation and diarrhoea, stuffy nose in the morning, cramps, bubbly feelings in my abdomen a couple of days ago, and extreme tiredness. Plus my one nipple (just the one as had a mastectomy 2 years ago) is super sensitive. I have 10 days until my period, so these symptoms seem too early for AF?

We decided to try once before we head to FET with our embryos we have stored (before I had chemo), and now I’m thinking I might be pregnant. I’m quite in tune with my body, and these symptoms aren’t normal for me.

Am I going mad??

Lovely reading all your posts. Super excited to finally be able to join the future mummy club. Xx

Momma22 · 21/07/2018 12:07

@FlapJackered sorry to hear that ☹️ Fingers crossed you get your BFP soon! X

Momma22 · 23/07/2018 13:13

Right so I'm now 9dpo, had more spotting when I wiped, except this time it was more red than pink, starting to think this might be AF arriving 5 days early. Which is so weird considering I usually have fairly long cycles? Starting to lose hope a bit now, tempted to test today! I'm thinking if there is even the slightest chance I'm pregnant I would at least get a faint line on a FRER test, considering I had spotting 3/4 days ago so I would have to be at least 3 days past implantation. I just don't know? Maybe I should just see how I get on over the next couple of days see if the bleeding gets any heavier, but I'm just so temped to test! The 2ww is torture and all his spotting at odd times is confusing as hell?!

Momma22 · 23/07/2018 13:34

Anyone else get their BFP yet?

OP posts:
purplestar9 · 23/07/2018 13:44

Hello @Langpants and welcome!
I think we're all going mad here so join the club :)
I'm around 12 DPO (I think) but I'm not sure on my cycle length because last cycle was 34 days but it was my first cycle off the pill. So I'm on CD33 today which would mean AF due Wednesday if same length as last cycle. Took a FRER test on Wednesday last week and it was a BFN, thinking either way it was too early!

Momma22 · 23/07/2018 16:06

Well I caved, tested with FRER. BFN! Not even a hint of a line. Guess that's me out this month, because I sorta feel if I was pregnant if be getting at least a faint line on a FRER by cycle day 28. Gutted

OP posts:
purplestar9 · 23/07/2018 18:02

@Momma22 do you have a normal 28 day cycle?

Delilah7 · 23/07/2018 19:22

Thinking I'm out. Took one of those small little flimsy stick tests that you can get from amazon and it was a BFN. I'm due Wednesday so I'm sure I'm out. Again :( 3rd cycle.

Momma22 · 23/07/2018 21:22

@purplestar9 this will be the shortest cycle I've had in a long time, my cycle's usually about 33 days there or there abouts, but the bleeding today was a little heavier than the spotting I had a few days ago, even though it is still lighter than a period. Reckon its the start of AF, and that's that 😞

@Delilah7 this is my third cycle too, if AF doesn't arrive by Wednesday why don't you try a first response because you never know? Maybe it's still to early for the amazon tests to pick up the pregnancy hormone

OP posts:
Langpants · 23/07/2018 21:37

Eek @purplestar9 - how have you managed not to test since then?! I’m chomping at the bit to test. Still another 2-3 days waiting for me, and even then at 6 days before AF, that’s probably too early. 🙈 xx

purplestar9 · 23/07/2018 21:56

Haha @Langpants I think it's because I tested so many times last cycle and I had so many symptoms that it kinda put me off, but last cycle was my first Off the pill too. I've not really got many symptoms this cycle so I'm just kind of trying to wait it out now. I know that if I wait until at least I'm late then if I am pregnant then I may at least get a strong line rather than a faint one where it's not 100%.
Good luck! So you'll be testing in a few days then?

Treaclepie19 · 23/07/2018 22:30

I'm not sure how many dpo i am but AF is due Friday. Going a bit cuckoo now waiting...
Determined not to test until Friday at the earliest because I have short cycles and a short LP.
Gaaaah!

Langpants · 23/07/2018 22:43

Aw @purplestar9. So much willpower this time. Yes - will prob do a test on Thursday. 😜 I’m booked in for an embryo transfer end of Aug if I’m not pregnant. Came off cancer drugs to conceive. (Had breast cancer 2 years ago) Thought I’d try just the once naturally. I would have tried longer but don’t want to be off the drugs longer than absolutely necessary. Recently got so nervous as my mum passed away unexpectedly 2 weeks ago from cancer. (We only knew 3 weeks before she passed) Freaked me out a little so am glad I’m not waiting around. Would be so lovely to become pregnant naturally, so I have everything crossed! x
