Hello ladies, my 2we has just started at due around the 15th anyone else? Second cycle for baby number 2.
My son is 3 and was conceived straight after coming off the pill so the whole "trying" for a baby is new to me! Haven't really got on with the ovulation tests never got a strong second line so presuming it passed before I tested! X

@civicxx that sounds like a good plan. Last cycle I could have sworn I was up duffed. I had all the textbook symptoms but this time round meh 😂😂 I’ve been getting some twinges on my left side and scrolling through mumsnet. It can be a blessing and a curse 😂😂when will you start testing?

I have literally every symptom you can think of can be found on mum's net it's drives you crazy!
Hopefully you'll all get your BFP soon! Mine is still really faint so not completely convinced but I suppose a line is a line right? Confused hoping to see a stronger line tomorrow x

@Kimbles18

A line is a line! & it is is early so I would guess it will get darker as the HCG level goes up, think it doubles every 2 days so may only notice a difference in the line every two days? Really happy for you! Smile

Thank you!!

I caved this morning and did a test but it was a BFN as its still a week till i can test. But i have been getting crazy sickness and heartburn and super fatigued so dont know if those are symptoms or not

Thanks ladies, done another this morning and still extremely faint but I am still only 12dpo period due Saturday and I'm only using internet cheapies. Few people have mentioned their not the best at showing strong lines.
They sound like symptoms to me but depends if their normal to you for this time of the month anyway?

Morning ladies...I also caved 🙈🙈 Did a boots test which came out as bfn but swore could see a shadow, and internet cheapie which showed a bit of a line but think it might be an evap so taking it as BFN. Then I brought the big guns....First response and zilch...nada. So I’m skipping tomorrow based on how many I’ve done today 😂😂😂

Have you checked then after they've dried? I know your not meant to look at them after 5mins but sometimes it's easier to see the colour. Fingers crossed xx

Ohhhh this damn window!

I'm gonna log some symptoms made up things in my head Grin

4DPO - snotty nose set in (got over a hell cold 2 weeks ago) still have the snotty nose now.

5DPO - head like an actual siv. called dad at 3 to check he was still collecting daughter from a school as I had an appointment at 4. Got in the car at 3.45 in my PJs to drop partner off at the gym. Partner looking at me sideways like you cannot leave the house like that! Me completely confused as only dropping him off? Appointment well & truly forgotten.

  • vivid dream
  • weird pinching & pulling on one side
  • vile taste in mouth - probably down to the snotty nose!
  • peeing a lot more, I've started counting how many times today though to see if it's my imagination
  • slightly sick (could be anything)

6DPO
Booked a Chinese restaurant for tea on Saturday? We eat out alllll the time & have never ever booked or eaten in a Chinese before probably just fancy a change as I'm sure you can't be effected this early on haha!
Still got the snotty nose 👎🏽

Anybody else's turned crazy yet? ☺️

It's funny you say about the Chinese,
What made me want to test the other day was a really fancied chips and gravy. It's not something I'd usually go out of my way to have but couldn't rest till I had some!

I've been getting heartburn for the past week and this morning i started throwing up when i woke up Confused not a huge amount but i still feel sicky and nauseous this afternoon it can't be morning sickness that early on ?? Id only be 2 weeks if i am pregnant the fatigue is getting worse too i feel so drained

Flossytots · 12/09/2018 18:20

Ohhh it’s interesting reading up all this. I love savoury stuff and don’t have much of a sweet tooth at all but I read something about cakes today and requested that my husband take a detour home just so he could buy me one😂😂 Funny thing is whilst I was requesting this, I was in the middle of raking through the biscuit and sweetie tin. 🙈🙈 I’m also hungry all the time, I even think of the next meal I’m going to have before finishing what I’m eating. I’m tired all the time and when I went into the kitchen this morning, I could smell the garlic from last night and instantly it made me nauseous and gave me heartburn 😬..please be a BFP otherwise I’ve lost it completely 🤞

@kimbles I really hope so, I don’t know if I can face Smep shagging again 😂😂😂 felt like a marathon 🤪

Sending you a virtual hug, hope you feel better soon. Keep us updated on how you are feeling. Xx

civicxx · 12/09/2018 21:38

Adding cramping to the 6DPO symptoms! Anybody else anything to report? :)

@TTC73 Everyone's different! How many DPO are you? :)

civicxx · 12/09/2018 21:39

I started typing that 25 minutes ago in work & forgot to press send haha!! Love reading everybody's posts! It does all sound positive for everybody! Be so lovely if we all got BFP!!

TTC73 · 13/09/2018 06:54

Just woke up again with nausea and did a test but still nothing Sad hate my body sometimes

Kimbles18 · 13/09/2018 07:39

How many DPO are you though x

Flossytots · 13/09/2018 08:43

aww @ttc73 just hang in there...exactly in the same boat just keep reminding myself that hcg levels will increase over time and remember some women don’t get a BFP well until after a missed af. Keep that in mind and hope that it will help to keep over the edge, it certainly is with me 😉

Flossytots · 13/09/2018 08:45

@Kimbles how is your line progression looking today? @civicxx how would you rate your cramps, would you say similar to af pain or different?

TTC73 · 13/09/2018 08:50

Im only 9DPO so still early days but i can't stop this nausea and vomiting yet at the same time im starving constantly 😂😂 DH is worried he thinks we should go to the doctors

TTC73 · 13/09/2018 08:51

Af is due on the 23rd too so ovia has said its 5 days till i can test

Kimbles18 · 13/09/2018 09:17

Done one about an hour ago and it's definitely darker but I've had a tiny bit of pink spotting too so hoping that's not a bad sign Sad attached this morning's test from the co-op, internet cheapies are v v faint and meant to be stronger!! I bet you start getting your bfps over the next couple of days xx

Sorry if it's hard to see had to take the picture under my desk at work Grin

Thats a BFP!! I think a small amount of spotting is normal its just left over bleed from the implantation if it gets bad enough you have to use a pad then its bad

Kimbles18 · 13/09/2018 10:39

Oh no it's not bad like that it's just as I wipe Blush it's not red just like a pinky brown colour. Trying not to worry!!
Would of thought my bfp would be fainter today if it was chemical, what do u think?
