Hello ladies for some reason the other thread has been closed down I think it's because it hit 1K replies.

Yes it is, last period started on 9th November didn't get a positive OPK till last Monday and it stayed for nearly 48 hours the surge! I had steroids and anti biotics this month for chest infection and also I'm only 9 weeks post surgery for my MC so guess my body is finding its Rhythm again. I'm CD31 today last month from day of ERPC to AF was 38 days so could be similar to that!

Did you tell your partner @Belle2008 ?xx

Fx for you @Twitwooo I've got a soreness to side of left boob and had lower bloating where my c section is yesterday and today odd twinge. But I feel like sometimes I make it happen haha which is stupid!

I don't want to get my hopes up as it's Abnormal cycle just not feeling positive almost ready to refresh xx

Oh ok October didn't realise it was that long last time did you do any more opk's after your positive one you got? Hope this is your month!!

I did last night he was so happy but it's very early days! Got a doctors appointment next Tuesday so can sort out midwife then. Xx

Twitwooo · 11/12/2018 10:07

@OctoberGirl91 fx for you. I think we always try to tell ourselves to keep expectations low which is a sensible idea but very difficult to implement!

As for my symptoms, @Belle2008 , physically my lower back aches like I've been on my feet for 6 hours even though I am just parked on the sofa. It feels quite stiff when I change postures. Went poop scooping in the garden today and it felt like it was going to seize up from slightly bending down repeatedly!
I strangely feel my round ligaments struggling too, that pain is mostly when I stand up from sitting down - but also comes and goes in these short episodes of what feels like... cramping, throughout the day.
I keep feeling like I need to wee a lot but when I actually go there's not a lot coming out. I had this my first too so not sure if that's my brain or my body doing that.
I have strangely gone off bread (loaf). I live on sandwiches so that's not great! I have found a new love for seeded buns though. Had 5 yesterday Blush. Any other symptom is not worth mentioning I think as I think it's more my brain than anything else.

I haven't tested yet just because my period is still a way away even though technically I should be able to see something soon. Maybe I will start with my cheapies tomorrow just in case something will show!

Belle2008 · 11/12/2018 10:15

Twitwooo oh sounds promising!! Fx for you. That's what I always do start off with the cheap ones I had a shadow for days before i thought they were evaps but tgey must have been a very very faint positive.
I'm guessing I'm around 5 weeks now as I had faint positives on CD 21 xx

OctoberGirl91 · 11/12/2018 10:16

Yes I wasn't sure how long to calculus last cycle as apparently you can't ovulate until all the HGC has left your symptoms it took 10 days after my surgery for my to get a negative so I go from day off negative test to AF it's a usual Cycle 29 days but not sure how to work it from day of surgery or my negative test! I've secretly ordered some OPKs and going try one today just to check what's happening with them. I'm fed up tbh Im half hoping for AF just to reset but also taking a lot of vitamins don't know if that changes it.

Aww so happy for you, hope it goes well keep us updated! 🥰@Belle2008

Last month I stuck to just CB and not these cheaps ones and I got a peak face exactly two weeks after my negative pregnancy test, so a standard cycle! Don't know what's happened this month xx

thejollytrolleydolly · 11/12/2018 10:20

Awww @Belle2008 I bet he was super happy! Good luck with your appointment!! 😍

I'm losing hope, I feel like af is on the horizon and all of the tests are still bfn. I've stopped testing for now and going to see if af comes on Sunday. Got so much to do until then so my mind should be kept very occupied until then!! My cycles are pretty short so I will be ovulating again before ny 👍🏽

Hoping to see some more bfp's before the end of the year though! ❤️

Belle2008 · 11/12/2018 10:41

Thanks a lot both xxx

Yes I hope we have some more positives on here before Xmas xxx

OctoberGirl91 · 11/12/2018 13:46

Did you have symptoms @Belle2008 you can think of looking back in what would have been your TWW?xx

Needadoughnut · 11/12/2018 13:49

Hello! I'm at the very end of it, just hoping for AF to show up as just today I Had another BFN... AF I due today or tomorrow btw, 13dpo so surely I would ahve to have a positive by now

Belle2008 · 11/12/2018 14:00

I had excess saliva which was strange & breast tenderness & cramps xx

MrsAW2018 · 11/12/2018 15:34

Hi ladies, I hope you don't mind me jumping in here... the 2ww is agonising!!

I'm on 7/8dpo and just want to test. My boobs are ever so slightly sore and I'm having a stabbing pain type cramp in my uterus area. Going to try and test on Thursday I think with an IC and then we're going away for the weekend so don't know whether to take the tests for over the weekend or not. My LP has been 12 days for the past few cycles so expecting AF either Saturday or Sunday depending on when I ovulated. So nervous!! Hope you're all doing well!

OctoberGirl91 · 11/12/2018 18:36

@Lemon1 how are you doing?xx

OP posts:
Lemon1 · 11/12/2018 22:11

Hey @octobergirl91 how are you?
Yes am doing okay! Am 5weeks tomorrow! I have been having some little niggles like pulling stretching in my lower left groin the last few days on and off so am having an early scan in 3 weeks! Praying that all is okay this time and I can enjoy my pregnancy rather than worrying about another miscarriage xx

Belle2008 · 12/12/2018 08:24

Hey lemon

How exciting about the scan I was thinking of booking one too for after Xmas! I have had the exact same, yesterday was quite uncomfortable on my left side low down but it's ok today. I'm sure it's all the stretching ect. Xx

OctoberGirl91 · 12/12/2018 08:42

Aww I can imagine it's an anxious time @Lemon1 that's my biggest fear for if I get pregnant again.

Be kind to yourself and good luck for your scan xx

OP posts:
MrsAW2018 · 12/12/2018 08:52

@OctoberGirl91 you have more patience than me! My last Positive OPK was Monday last week and I'm going to start testing tomorrow!! I know it's silly but I just want to know tbh xx

Lemon1 · 12/12/2018 10:05

@Belle2008 phew I’m glad it’s not just me! Yes mine is lower left side also right near my groin. I hope it’s all good signs of the implantation going well! It’s not like cramps it’s more like tugs or stretching. I would say discomfort for than pain! Hope you get your early scan too! I think it will be nice just to have the confidence of a healthy 8 weeks scan!

@octobergirl91 thank you lovely I have everything crossed for you this month! Christmas is the time to be relaxed and fertile! Perfect time for conceiving! Xxx

OctoberGirl91 · 12/12/2018 10:36

Fx @MrsAW2018 after weekend I'll get itchy fingers to test! I've asked my hubby to hide my two FRER so I don't get tempted!

Thank you @Lemon1 I hope so too, but I'm also ok if this month isn't my month as I've had such a long cycle!

@thejollytrolleydolly have rob tested with FMU with your other FRER?xx

OP posts:
OctoberGirl91 · 12/12/2018 18:05

Boob tenderness is more noticeable today and also when getting up I got a stabbing pain in my right hand side like a ligament pain? Never had that before!xx

OP posts:
thejollytrolleydolly · 12/12/2018 19:59

Heyyy @OctoberGirl91 I'm going to hold out until Sunday and test if af doesn't show because I only have one left and I don't want to waste it lol! My boobs are KILLING! Not uncommon during pms though so not necessarily a preg symptom...

We will see what happens Sunday!

@Lemon1 @Belle2008 good luck with your scans! So exciting 😍😍
