No symptom spotting for me this month & no testing until AF is due/late! Anyone in a similar place? 🤞🏼

Me, I'm 4dpo on cycle two trying for number 3 Wink I've googled every thing I can for 2dpo, 3dpo as I've had pinching and cramps.... we shall see what happens!

Stormwhale · 13/09/2018 13:44

This will be dc2 for us. I have a 4 year old dd. I do have pcos so it might take a bit longer than others, but I was lucky with dd as we weren't even trying. One slip up and boom, pregnant!

Did you all just know with your previous dc? I did. I was utterly sure I was pregnant and I was.

Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 13:45

Oooo you're going deep already @Bloodylegoeverywhere! 🤣 It can be hard not to.. trying to be more zen this cycle. ha

@stormwhale pcos here too 🙋🏼 Pretty regular cycles though so not sure how much effect it has. Know plenty of women with 2,3,4 kids with PCOS... yes I def just knew! Mad isn't it? I'd be willing a second line for months & when it popped up I was like yep, knew it... super chilled!!

@beautifulblue I think as I've never had these symptoms before even when not trying. But I needed a way to fill my lunch break. No googling today on 4dpo (obviously got bored)

Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 13:49

@Bloodylegoeverywhere not judgement here! Not gonna pretend I haven't googled 1dpo symptoms before Grin

Op I keep my weight down, and periods are settled again after being on the mini pill, so feeling hopeful. I'm just not getting as clear signs of ovulation as I used to. Tmi, but not as much ewcm, less ovulation pain etc so I'm feeling that I'm not as fertile. We'll see though!!

Fingers crossed for all of us. I love looking at other people's poas so can't wait for that bit on here!

Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 13:56

@stormwhale my ewcm varies too, some months it's obvious others I wouldn't know I was ovulating with the tests. Didn't have much this month but hoping that's not a bad sign! Ooo same here! I live for a 9dpo squinter! sad

Without the tests*

Stormwhale · 13/09/2018 14:02

Beautiful so you are using the ovulation tests and know you are ovulating even though it doesn't seem like it from ewcm? That's reassuring!

fee1234 · 13/09/2018 14:10

I'm the same, I currently have a blazing positive OPK which has pretty much stolen all the dye from the test! But hardly any EWCM this month Hmm also having a bit of cramping today so perhaps I'm actually laying the egg today.

SwordToFlamethrower · 13/09/2018 14:36

I'm 4dpo! Here's hoping! I'm 41 with pcos and also have male factor low sperm and motility. This is my 5th cycle on supplements and DP 3rd cycle on supplements. So they should be starting to take effect now. Fx! Good luck to all!

3dpo here 🙋🏼 Anyone wanna join me for the TWW?
Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 14:37

Yes @Stormwhale! Definite positive OPK despite little to no difference in CM!

OP posts:
Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 14:38

Good luck to you! @SwordToFlamethrower keep up posted! Share how you're feeling etc etc! Xx

OP posts:
Beautifulblue · 13/09/2018 14:39

Yep started a thread about lack of CM the other day totally normal for or some people to never have it apparently. One even said, never had it but have many DC's! So what could be more reassuring than that?!

OP posts:
Stormwhale · 13/09/2018 16:14

Thank you, that really is reassuring. I was concerned something was wrong. I'm still getting it, just not as much.

I would quite like to be able to time travel. Skip ahead two weeks as I think it's going to feel like ages this time, not sure why.

OneMoreWish · 13/09/2018 16:47

Trying for number 2 (reason for my recent name change)

My word what a long day - are we still only 3dpo?!?

OneMoreWish · 13/09/2018 16:59

@rollerskaterdata I had a chemical when trying for first baby. I was absolutely gutted but luckily I got pregnant again the month after.

I tested early again ( though not as early as first month - probably around 12dpo) my reasoning was same as yours I wanted to know if I was going to have another chemical to understand if I had problem with keeping pregnancy.

Luckily it wasn't a problem the second time! It did make finding out slightly more muted - I didn't really relax until second trimester but I think I would have felt like that anyway with or without testing early.

Definitely agree with another poster who said different things work for different people

Lots of baby dust for all of us xxx

rollerskaterdata · 13/09/2018 19:03

@Stormwhale I have some months of abundant EWCM and others dry as a bone (like the past 2 months as soon as we started TTC - typical!). But got a peak OPK this month and Ov pain so reassuring! I think it can vary month to month just like our cycles can vary by a day or two. I'm not going to worry about it unless it keeps happening for a few more months!

@Beautifulblue you put it perfectly! I have living proof I can conceive and carry a baby but I'm still worried! 🤨 I need to shake it off and find my PMA!

@OneMoreWish sorry to hear about your chemical 😔 I'm really glad you got a sticky bean straight after! I think I agree, I would want to know if I had a problem keeping a pregnancy rather than thinking I couldn't get pregnant at all. But again, my mind could change and also different strokes for different folks and there is no right or wrong way when it comes to testing!

Why oh why is it only 3dpo?! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

@Beautifulblue Cake Can only keep fingers crossed but there's so much anticipation. 2 bfn's so far but can't help testing early just in case. Hoping everyone here ends up with their positive
