Hi ladies! Just wondering if anyone else is trying for DC2? Hoping we can support each other through this journey 🙂 I have a soon to be 4 year old, on cycle no 2 and currently waiting to exhale ovulate!

fizzy Have a wonderful holiday. Fx AF will stay away, and you will return to a shiny BFP! I am heading away myself on Saturday for a week to the Canaries. Fx a bit of fun in the sun and relaxation will help.

Ejo I am CD 12 and waiting for ovulation. BFP hopefully due on the 2nd of October, all depending on ovulation.

Ellikopter We tend to notice everything the minute we TTC! We become super detectives of sort. Fx it's a promising symptom for you.

Roller I am chilling out for the weekend...catching up on my housework, and basically doing sod all Grin I am off on hols next Saturday. I am looking forward to it, but I am not the bravest when it comes to flying!

The TWW wait is difficult, but you all have each other to make the journey easier.

@Ellikopter since starting TTC every week is the longest week of my life, I'm either waiting to ovulate or waiting to poas! 😫

@ejo21 thanks hun! I'm so hoping we all get our BFPs this month!

@Carastarchild so jealous! Enjoy your holiday and let us know all about it when you get back! I bet you're counting down the days until you go! I've been shopping today (hate shopping but necessary!) and playing in the park with DS. DH away working so missing him like crazy!

So I'm 5dpo, still cramping almost like AF cramps since 1dpo, ridiculously tired (slept 11 hours last night), stuffy nose this AM and nose of a blood hound apparently (I'm smelling smells no one else can to the point that my mum asked me today if I'm preggo because I can smell everything and she couldn't smell anything, despite also being sensitive to smells). It's extremely unlikely impossible that implantation has even happened yet so who knows what the hell is going on 🤷‍♀️

I've given up trying not to symptom spot, f*ck it! Life is too short and it's all part of the fun! 🤣 my body won't leave me alone anyway!

How we all getting on?
I've had what I can only describe as ovary pain/twinges , tummy ache but I've had a bug also , really bad wind. ( has anyone had smelly wee at all?) sorry TMI but not sure if anything connected at all. I'm 8DPO but I'm wondering if I ovulated late to get the twinges etc ??? As I don't track I just go by apps and estimates lol my boobs have had twinges too and itchy! What's going on lol I've ordered some FRER and Amazon cheap tests to do on Friday lol

@Ellikopter I'm 10DPO now and AF is due on Saturday! I've had a few twinges too and felt very warm all the time?!

Funny that @ejo21 I've had flushes lol hope it's a good sign for us both ??
We DTD last night just incase it was maybe late ovulation so time can only tell. Never really had so many twinges both from ovaries and boobs so not sure what's going on. Also I've started with a sore throat and sniffly so maybe just run down lol

@Ellikopter I'll do a test on Sunday if no AF (it usually takes a while for enough of the hormone to build up for me to get a clear positive!) My period was nearly a whole week late when I got an actual clear BFP with DS!!! 😔 I was going mad trying to decide if there was a line or not 😂

@Ellikopter hey hun! Your symptoms all sounds really promising! A few of your symptoms are similar to mine. Yesterday at 7dpo I felt something so hard to describe, I had this strong pressure / cramping right in the centre of my uterus that literally took my breath away, accompanied with a strong wave of nausea and dizziness. Had to lie down during it and couldn't get up for around 20 mins! I'm thinking, hoping it was implantation. I also had diarrhoea all day, had to keep going! (sorry TMI!). Don't think I ate anything bad, when I normally do I get horrendous stomach ache to accompany the runs but I feel absolutely fine, no pain just lots of diarrhoea 😬

Today at 8dpo I've had a bit more cramping but not as bad and mainly from the side I ovulated from (Left), bloated, shooting pains in my boobs and a bit tired but not ridiculously, and still very gassy!

Quite dissimilar to last month when I had literally every symptom going but wasn't pregnant. Right now apart from those few niggles I feel pretty good...🤷‍♀️! I'm also testing on Friday at 11dpo (I moved this up a day because I'm so impatient! 😂)

@ejo21 I admire your self control! I also didn't get a positive with my son until AF was 5 days late but that won't stop me testing early anyway! 🤪

@rollerskaterdata I had upset tummy too but weird as I had really bad gas with it. What is going on with us lol oh how good would it be if we all got BFP this month! I'm hoping FRER will do the trick!

@ejo21 I dying to take a test ASAP but I know it wouldn't show anything . I'm just so nervous about doing one and it be BFN and start to feel down about it

@rollerskaterdata @Ellikopter I also had diarrhoea 😅 I thought it must've been a bug but not so sure now 😬😬😬 I had it a lot in the early days with DS1 so hopefully it's actually a good sign for all of us!! I'm dying to take a test but know it won't show anything and don't want to start feeling bad 🙁 I'd also worry about getting my hopes up if it picks up a 'chemical' pregnancy!

Misleading though as I keep reading that only constipation is a symptom but yet diarrhoea can't be :( @rollerskaterdata @ejo21 I just keep getting cramps and aches xx

Report
rollerskaterdata · 18/09/2018 19:29

@Ellikopter I read it can be either constipation or diarrhoea, the hormones can affect us both ways. And every woman is different anyway, no one can deny our symptoms are real 😂

@rollerskaterdata I had it for two days straight then ended up with bad gas, now it's just slight cramping. My AF due Monday lol it's snap isn't it with us lol, I honestly didn't think that diarrhoea would indicate it but everything is pointing towards it lol

Anyone ever get slight itchy boobs and tingly every now and then? It's not constant but every now and then I can feel it but not anything bad to make me hurt when wearing a bra lol also I've slightly gone off chicken as last two times I've eaten it I get diarrhoea either pregnant or can't cook properly. TMI alert and I swear my wee today smelt really sweet lol
