Hi ladies, can I join?
I think I've just entered the 2ww going by my clearblue smiley face on Thursday, potential ovulation Friday? Had no real symptoms to be honest and no change in CM throughout?

I stopped my pill in January, had first bleed 5 weeks later, second bleed 26 days later (beginning of match) then had first positive OPK on CD20 xx

Laurenmclovely · 23/03/2019 19:38

Hi welcome:) yes everyone is welcome here. Tbh symptoms don't even start for some women until the 4 or 5 week mark so you still have time

MrsM18 · 23/03/2019 21:18

Hi ladies. I hope you don't mind me popping by! I'm currently on my 2WW. 5DPO - feeling a constant dull ache in my lower stomach & back, occasional sharp pain in my side. Unsure if it's completely unrelated - I had a very light streak of pinky blood yesterday but seeing as I was only 4DPO surely this its too early for symptoms??

Kiskacsa · 23/03/2019 21:40

Hello @mrsm18 and @Robbo93 - hope you find this a nice place to thumb twiddle and find some friendly folks to wait with. We’re all at different stages but I think a few are in a similar spot at the moment!

@lauren - was just checking in after your symptom fun of yesterday, wondered how things were feeling today? Totally agreed on CBs

Think I’m on last day of Mc/AF having some alcohol this weekend to celebrate her departure. Had forgotten how much I liked G&Ts.

@jelizabethnewby how are you doing? Not heard from you in a while lovely x

Hopefulprincess · 23/03/2019 23:21

@mrsawhite yay it worked happy bding 😁
@lauren I agree think many of us learnt in last month how bad evaps are now , I no they say blue dye are bad for it but they shouldn’t allow such terrible indents

@mrsawhite that’s a great sign at ovulation it’s a good burst of an egg 😊 some get it some don’t but it is normal as long as it’s just spotting

Morning everyone 😣 6DPO here and I've woken up with very mild cramping, exactly what I get during af.

Robbo93 · 24/03/2019 07:30

@Hopefulprincess @Kiskacsa @Laurenmclovely thanks for the warm welcome!

I'm going to assume I'm 2DPO (even tho I have no true idea) but I've had lower back ache since my LH surge - is this normal?

ChloePD · 24/03/2019 07:42

And now I'm bleeding 😭😭😭

Laurenmclovely · 24/03/2019 08:31

Hey everyone. Literally no idea what is going on with my body. Perhaps I'm too in tune with it? I just have this feeling it's going to happen very soon. Starting to realise I get boob pain in the TWW regardless. Still have no explanation for the pelvic discomfort I was feeling on Friday.

MrsM18 · 24/03/2019 08:44

@ChloePD  Could it be implantation bleeding? When are you due on?

@Laurenmclovely I'm only just catching up on your story really - how many many DPO are you? X

MrsM18 · 24/03/2019 08:46

Ps I forgot to write what I came on here to write Grin I mentioned yesterday general dull ache, and sharp pain - but I've got (TMI) the worst trapped wind, to the point I'm balled over in pain. So so painful and hasn't eased up since late last night Sad I'm not constipated, so honestly no idea what's going on x

Laurenmclovely · 24/03/2019 08:49

This cycle I am 5dpo but haven't BD'd this cycle. BD'd in my last fertile window in February. Had a relatively light period. But I've had all the usual discharge and what not this month

ChloePD · 24/03/2019 08:53

@MrsM18 I'm due a week today

ChloePD · 24/03/2019 08:54

But it's not the lightest of bleeding!

ducksandacorns · 24/03/2019 08:55

Hello hope it's ok if I join!

AF due today, BFN on internet cheapie this morning. Sigh.

Laurenmclovely · 24/03/2019 09:00

@chloe what is the bleeding like? @mrsm it could be early pregnancy symptoms a lot of ladies get crippling wind. @ducksandacorns hello!

MrsM18 · 24/03/2019 09:08

@Laurenmclovely sounds like you know your body well though which is a bonus! If it was a pregnancy symptom that would be just lovely, as the pain at time was unbearable  so hard not to symptom spot though isn't it!

@ChloePD Are you usually fairly regular with AF? X

Laurenmclovely · 24/03/2019 09:15

@mrsm this is a relatively new thing for me, my first pregnancy I literally ended up in hospital before I figured out I was pregnant thats why it still freaks me out

ChloePD · 24/03/2019 09:16

I have no clue as I only came off the pill 2nd Feb. But I ovulated in Feb and then had my first period 13 days later so fairly normal, this month I'm only 6DPO which would mean a very very short luteal phase!

It's dark red/almost brown and seems to be coming and going, very little when I wipe but occasionally a fair amount in pad! also cramping!

Sorry for the pic, I know it's not great on a Sunday morning! 😢
My BBT temp is also on the low side (36.45 this morning) but I have very interrupted sleep with a new puppy. I am also shattered, I was Asleep last night at 7:45 and 8:15 the night before, again could just be that I'm getting up once or twice at night for puppy and I've worked everyday this week, but that's not particularly unusual, nor is puppy as we've had her a month!

Laurenmclovely · 24/03/2019 09:30

@chloe that looks exactly like my implantation bleeding! Had it for over a week

MrsM18 · 24/03/2019 09:45

@ChloePD I have no experience with implantation bleeding with my daughter, but timeframe wise definitely seems like it could be? Not sure how heavy it usually is. Have you got cramps?

Cannyhandleit · 24/03/2019 09:48

Hi everyone,
Sorry to jump in but everyone seems to be at similar stage here!!

chloe that’s not fresh blood so don’t panic yet!

So I am roughly 3 dpo (according to Flo) of cycle 5 although only cycle 2 using OPKS.
I have 2dc already (4&2) and 2 mcs before kids, I got pregnant everytime without even thinking first cycle so this is a strange situation for me! I haven’t been able to do bbt as I have very disturbed sleep with dcs most nights and I have been useless at doing opks regularly!
I am 36 now and worrying age is affecting my fertility or maybe I am just over thinking things and the stress isn’t helping!

pomegranat3 · 24/03/2019 10:41

@ducksandacorns my af is also due today, didn't test today as already tested bfn 2 days ago, drop in temp this morning though 😔

ducksandacorns · 24/03/2019 11:11

@pomegranat3 Keeping positive for you!

I've just gone into my Ovia app settings and I had made a mistake with the length my period lasts. So it's now recalculated and AF now due to appear on Thursday.

Annoyed at myself - the app has recalculated everything and I'm pretty sure we will be out this month now as we're planning around incorrect fertility window!

Will use OPKs next month.
