I was like that with my son 😂 it does all come to you though :) I have such a bad stitch that doesn't seem to be going away and its driving me mad. It was funny with my son because I was having pregnancy symptoms for ages and I wrote them off as something else even ended up in hospital with bells Palsy it's a funny thing pregnancy. Each and every one is different as well

Hi can I join please, 6dpo today wondering when to test either Thursday at 9dpo or Friday. I got a positive test at 9dpo last time with my son. It’s so tempting and I’m not very patient

Hopefulprincess · 25/02/2019 21:04

@mrsawhite your spotting? How many dpo now? That’s a great sign 😁😁 and first time is always scary but it is good fun and exciting, in fact it’s just as exciting whether it’s 1st 2nd 3rd 4th ect it is exactly the same it’s an odd feeling and every pregnancy is different so you never no what’s coming 😂

@Hopefulprincess I think I am 3pdo. But I always spot around ovulation. Quite annoying really can be a bit of a mood killer 😂

Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2019 09:09

@mrsawhite the spotting sounds like a good sign!

I had the cramping a lot yesterday and this morning it's eased off a bit 🤷🏽‍♀️

The last time I had a 29 day cycle was in October so i May have ov early and I'm more DPO than I think? I might be 7 or 8 DPO if I ov on CD14/15? And maybe that's why I'm getting the cramps?

Am I clutching at straws?

mrsawhite · 26/02/2019 09:21

I have my suspicions could be a bit later than I think. But can't be certain as didn't track this month. It's usually pretty clear with ewcm (sorry) when it's happening. And DH been home all month so just been trying all month.

I slept like a log last night. Quite unusual for me. No cramps so far today. Still tiny bit of spotting! Have a good Tuesday all!

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 09:37

Oh noooooi just did the school run and had sharp pain right side you no the kind that make you stop what your doing but I was driving 🙈 it eased after 30 seconds then got another walking into school just the 1 now I’m home I’m cramping... not like the dull cramps since ovulation 🙈 I darent go to loo I’m standing like a statue writing this 😂 defo defo noticeable cramps... what if it’s af early! The mr is at work he said get a bath try again next month but guess not lot can do just wait....

@coastal I’m 7dpo too, were your cramps slight or noticeable?
@mrsawhite fingers and toes crossed 🤞 you’ve tried all month so can’t of missed it 🥰🥰

OP posts:
mrsawhite · 26/02/2019 09:46

Exactly. God I've decided I've got all sorts of symptoms today. Boobs feel a bit sore. Must stop this!!

How early can you test realistically?

Have cramps come to anything @Hopefulprincess

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 09:51

You can test as early as 7dpo but likelihood is negative as so early but 7dpo is normally when egg burrows or around that some don’t till 9dpo it varies but soon as burrowed hcg starts , just checked and no blood 🙈 I will test tomorrow and Thursday see what happens ... I’m scared haha

Hiya, I'd love any advice please, I'm losing my mind!
My ovusense app tells me that I ovulated on 12th Feb, which was super exciting as I hadn't responded to any medication to make me ovulate in the past six months. I then had really bad pains in my left side last week and saw the doc who said I had a big old cyst on one of my ovaries. Since then my basal body temp has stayed up, and my period hasn't come ( but then again I haven't had a period without inducing it with norethistorne since I came off the pill). And have only had BFN when I've tried testing. Does anyone know whether cysts can cause your bbt to stay high? Sorry for the rambling message! xxx

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 09:58

@cake yes sometimes, I’v had cyst problems for past year they won’t tell me if it’s because of pcos or the meds they put me on but I’v had 3 burst this year and it messes up your cycles for sure! Are you using a sensitive test? Id ask for bloods to be done 🥰

OP posts:
Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2019 09:59

@Hopefulprincess they were a mix 🙈 noticeable and slight. It's crap that it's similar to pre AF so you can't differentiate the two!!

I think realistically we shouldn't test till at least 9DPO to see anything? I'm bricking it as I don't wanna see a BFN. Have developed thrush again too so that's another annoying thing in the mix 🙄

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 10:05

@coastaldreamer yes 9dpo is sensible I’m just way to impatient so il be day before aswell 😂 ah so sounds similar how have you been since? I feel like af about to come but il be annoyed as very early- how dare she 🙈

OP posts:
Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2019 10:19

@Hopefulprincess haha, I know what that feels like. I might try one of the cheapies tomorrow morning 😬.

Feel like the cramps are much more dull today, just feels like PMS but who knows!

Hate all this second guessing 🙈 just wanna see all of our and my BFPs!

If you test tomorrow let us know how you get on and likewise x

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 10:33

@coastaldreamer I no right 🙈 the not knowing!!! I think I just worry more because of pcos and cysts which never was a problem when conceiving before 🤷‍♀️ I’m still cramping :/ going to do housework then see what happens I feel like I need to keep weeing although I no I actually don’t 😂 yes defo il let you no how get on cx

OP posts:
cake1987 · 26/02/2019 10:45

@hopefulprincess thanks for your message, I'm not sure how sensitive my test is, it's just a co op one. I'm going to give it until 18 dpo and then test again. xx

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 10:55

@cake see if you can find some with 10mlu they pick it up so early and frer do aswell Theyr as low as 6mlu , keep us updated and good luck x

Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2019 11:11

@Hopefulprincess are you getting really hot, esp at night time? I woke up last night and felt like I was overheating, had to kick DH off me lol.

But I do sometimes get that as PMS so ughhh

X

Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 13:24

No I’m cold always cold 😂😂 this heat shouldn’t be here though, where’s the snow at?! Still cramping and had 1 shoot pain when coughed I googled STUPIDLY and says ectopic I mean I no google is the worst so il not do anything hasty but never had this before, maybe it’s anither cyst :( I’m still gonna remain hopeful and hope af stays awayyyyyyyyyyy

OP posts:
Hopefulprincess · 26/02/2019 13:26

@coastaldreamer just seen you have thrush I saw that on google too as a sign 😂 hormonal thing 🤷‍♀️ Hang on to positives eh 😂xx

OP posts:
Coastaldreamer · 26/02/2019 13:55

@Hopefulprincess lol I'll hang onto any positive atm as I just feel like my pms has kicked in and is playing a trick on me!

I hope you don't have another cyst... I think we over analyse every symptom or cough or sneeze and dr google is the worst thing to check although I'm guilty of it too.

Yep, we're in the game till AF shows! Smile

mrsawhite · 26/02/2019 15:04

Oh gawd I've got so long to wait to test!

Michellebops · 26/02/2019 15:31

Me too @mrsawhite 😫😫😫
