Anyone out there want to join me in trying for a successful Feb?! I’m sure there are loads of us out there can can support and answer questions :)
I’m 35, TTC #2 and have been trying for 4 months or so. My Son is almost 16 months so out of that baby stage which was so much fun (although this age defo has its perks).

@Scottish1 I'm trying to hold off testing til I miss af if I do and I'm only 6dpo but been getting a metallic taste in my mouth today and food and drink tasting weird so I'm in full symptom spotting mode!

Scottish1 · 19/02/2019 18:26

Half way there then @lizzie198 !

Kinsella82 · 19/02/2019 18:45

How many bfp have we had here? I'm still 5 days away from AF being due. I've every symptom under the sun and driving myself bonkers! I've no tests in the house so I'll be holding out as long as I can before I buy one

Scottish1 · 19/02/2019 19:11

Just one, I think? I’m testing on Saturday at 13dpo. Was going to wait but that way I can drown my sorrows on Saturday evening if needs be!
I’ve had mild cramps for the past two days and I thought I was out but they have gone this evening. I am 9dpo/period due on Monday so I’ve got my hopes up thinking they might have been implantation cramps. Shouldn’t get my hopes up though 😩

Kinsella82 · 19/02/2019 19:36

I'm similar dates to you @Scottish1 (as far as I know as it's still early days in my cycle tracking). I like your idea of drowning your sorrows 😂 has to be something to look forward to if we are not lucky this month! Xx

LG0914 · 19/02/2019 20:05

If I were to get a clear blue test that can be done before I could do it this weekend.. but I'm gonna try wait for Wed at least.

Hope everyone is not driving themselves mad symptom guessing - it’s so hard! Sounds like we are all in this together. My AF was 4 days late this month, and I can guarantee it on the hour every month, so that was a bit of a mindblow! I’m basing my symptoms on the last time I was preggers - not sure if they change with each pregnancy?!?
Good luck to anyone left to test xx

@LouzieC I'm spotting that I have no symptoms so feeling rather shitty today 👎🏻

Leleophants · 20/02/2019 13:30

Also 6dpo but don't really feel anything apart from slighted bloated (have been overeating with trying to distract myself though).

Leleophants · 20/02/2019 13:31

Me too. Trying to be really healthy but am already telling me myself about all the wine I can look forward to. Really hope we're wrong though!

ale2992 · 20/02/2019 14:25

I'm 5dpo, feeling tired which isn't unusual so no symptoms at all 👎🏻👎🏻

lizzie198 · 20/02/2019 16:16

Well ladies I'm a bit confused 7dpo and clue says af due Saturday but flo says next Wednesday. TMI just been to the loo and very small amount of blood when I wiped. I have never been one for spotting prior to af. Could this be implantation bleeding at this point in cycle?

Scottish1 · 20/02/2019 16:25
Scottish1 · 20/02/2019 16:26

@lizzie198 This video says implantation can happen 6-12dpo so it could be!

lizzie198 · 20/02/2019 16:40

That was really helpful thanks @Scottish1 😊

Kinsella82 · 20/02/2019 16:50

@lizzie198 really sounds like it!

lizzie198 · 20/02/2019 16:57

I'm terrified to go to the toilet again in case it's af early and in full flow and then the possibility goes out the window but also want to keep checking 🙈 TWW makes me into a crazy lady and it's only 2nd cycle!

Scottish1 · 20/02/2019 21:30

How are you getting on @lizzie198 anymore bleeding? X

FilthyforFirth · 20/02/2019 22:54

Just started bleeding here, to add insult to injury af is now 2 days early. I am usually like clockwork so this feels like a further kick when I am down.

Fingers crossed for you @lizzie198

Scottish1 · 20/02/2019 23:21

Oh no! Sorry to hear that @FilthyforFirth 😞

ale2992 · 20/02/2019 23:22

So much for not symptom spotting, I seem to have developed several in the last few hours 😩 dizziness, fatigue, cramps, sore boobs/nipples and they feel massive, also feeling bloated. All of those could be pms I suppose so trying to stay pessimistic.

Scottish1 · 20/02/2019 23:29

When are you due af @ale2992 ?

ale2992 · 21/02/2019 00:01

1st March @Scottish1

Ovacado23 · 21/02/2019 08:00

Congratulations @Ovacado23 😊🎉🎉

@Scottish1 I didn't get any more after that one incident but af hasn't shown up.

Had a very traumatic night though as one of my elderly ponies got rushed to the veterinary hospital and sadly we've lost her this morning so symptom spotting etc has gone out the window and I now feel like a complete emotional wreck 😔
