Morning ladies, anyone else going nuts on this tww? First round of Clomid this month. Had an ectopic last year with right tube removal due to rupture. Fairly certain I ovulated this month but this tww is finishing me off. Got so many symptoms of pregnancy, cramping since ov, sore nipples but not boobs, (rare for me, my boobs don't work! Hmm) lots of creamy cm, (sorry tmi) insomnia but exhausted, dh says mood swings but he's obviously lying as I'm a little ray of sunshine! Grin! BFN this morning and 5 days till af! Anyone else in the same excruciating boat? Baby dust to all! 😍

Hey shelleybear0313 I'm due in 5 days time like yourself although my cycles are slightly irregular so might be longer. I am going crazy on this tww! Just keep obsessing over possible symptoms even though I had all the symptoms last month and then AF came!

I did a FRER test today which was negative :( A few days after ovulation I was getting sharp pains in left ovary and had sharp shooting pains in left boob yesterday. All i have now is mildly sore nipples but could be due to AF coming. So frustrating! So now I have to just sit here and wait until my AF shows Sad

Sorry to hear about everything you went through last year. Definitely think these symptoms you have sound promising though. Did you test with FRER? FX for you!! Smile

Hey ashers89! 😃 thanks for the reply. If I'm honest I'm not sure what frer is? 🤷🏼‍♀️ please excuse me being special but fairly new to posting as in this is my first post...although I have been stalking the pages for months! I done a first response this morning but it was bfn! The wonderful delivery man also delivered some different tests and put myself through another miserable bfn! 🙈 I then proceeded to give myself a mental slap and blitz the house to keep me busy!

Have you had Clomid this month? How long have you been ttc? I'm convinced I want a baby so much I'm making they symptoms happen! At least Iv got a friend now to be sad with Monday if our af arrives! I'm usually spot on time, really short cycles of 24 days sometimes less. Think that with the missing tube is why this baby business just isn't working.

Thanks for your kind words, we have no choice sometimes to brush off and carry on! 💙💜💙

Hey shelleybear0313 don't worry I had to google frer to make sure I knew what it was lol! It's short for the first response early result tests. Are those the ones you did? I've done two in the past two days both bfn I've accepted I'm not pg this month Sad so sorry to hear you got one too. Atleast we can go through the af and next cycle together and keep each other sane! I don't know too much about clomid but from stalking the site Blush I believe it is for women with shorter cycles? Are you using ovulation kits and temping? I'm doing the whole works in September! Get pre seed is apparently good to use too. My cycles are actually quite long and irregular 28-34. I thought I was ovulation around cd14 or a few days afternoon but now I'm thinking I might ovulate cd20+ so need to make sure I get it right next month.

It sounds like you have been through a tough journey I really feel for you. My mum only had one tube working and here I am so always remember examples like this! This is only the second month I'm trying properly but I find myself obsessing about it all day I want it so much! I had a miscarriage a few years ago and since then taken risks but nothing xx

It's quite disheartening these bfn! Just keep thinking we're not out yet although I don't really believe that!
I'm doing the tests but truth be told all last month I was doing them first thing on the basis of a pregnancy test. Turns out evening better! 🙈 who new! 😂😂 Iv also pulled my Fitbit out of hibernation as I seen someone post about heart rate being different, can't help I suppose. Clomid just makes you produce multiple eggs, better chance with just one tube! Last years ectopic was a bit of a blur if I'm honest! Fell out with dh and refused to call him as they were rushing me in to theatre, they did make quite a mess of me! I'm convinced they have wobbled the other tube as Iv not had a dye put through my other tube just a scan. Have you had any tests done? Also just a bizarre on are you taking aspirin? Just a small dose, apparently helps with blood flo. I rattle in a morning hopeful for a good outcome! 🙈😂 xxx💖

It really is disheartening but your right we still have hope until AF comes. Have you got any symtoms anymore?

That's what I did with the ovulation packs this month the first time I used it was in the morning and got a positive first time on cd9 so think il stick to afternoon next month, also going to invest in the clear blue ones just so I can get that smiley face and not keep trying to understand the lines on the cheap ones lol

Really feel for you that must have been such an awful experience but Clomid sounds good it must give you a bit more hope each month. I'm assuming your scan was okay for your other tube but are you planning on doing the dye test? I haven't had any tests done I might get that done if I don't have any success next month. Thanks for the aspirin tip il try that too! Xx
