TTC buddies needed DESPERATELY

[MrsB899]

I desperately need some TTC buddies. We've just started trying for no.3 and we haven't told anyone. I'm bursting but with no one to talk to. I realise this makes me sound like a total sap

@Squiff70 definitely good to share. DP is super excited and supportive but as a male (and as it's not his body) he is able to put it out of his mind so I'm conscious of not babbling on to him too much (and also feigning some level of sanity so he doesn't think I'm psycho!!) So glad to have come across this thread! X

@MrsPandigital haha laughing here at may the force!! Less than a week!
Keep dreaming about it. Last night is a dream that I had implantation bleeding then woke up not knowing if it had dreamt it or not!

I've just woken up ridiculously early with awful AF cramps, so expected to come on. Hasn't happened just yet. I am due on today and regular as clockwork usually so fingers crossed it holds off. Annoyingly only 7DPO due to late ov so being good & not testing.

@MrsPandigital & @Louise190 I'm 28 too 😊

@mynameisMrG eeekkkk congrats I'm so happy for you 😊

@mrsm18 that IS early! Are they definitely af cramps?
Congrats mynameis

Thank you ladies. I’m not getting excited as this morning the frer was veeery faint and it’s still not showing on the monitor. Until I see it on the monitor I’m not accepting it 😂

How you feeling @MrsM? Definitely AF pains?

Hi everyone, just trying to catch up on the thread wow so much going on!
@mynameisMrG congratulations 😊
Hope everyone else is doing good.
I think I'm about 4DPO but I missed a positive on cheap opks so just predicting from EWCM and app. Is anyone else around the same DPO as me?

@dizzy85 I'm 6/7dpo i have the sorest boobs this morning. Have you got any symptoms

@MrsB899 ooh not too far from me then, do you normally get sore boobs that early? I don't really have anything yet I have a cold and felt sick yesterday but now so does my OH so must just be a bug. Have you had anything else?

@dizzy85 oh that's strange I have a slight cold too. I had more Vagina discharge yesterday (tmi sorry) and felt sicky I normally get sore boobs before AF but it's not due until 6th I've ordered some FRER I'll try next weekend if I can hold off that long

@MrsB899 hopefully they are signs! Yesterday I had some creamy watery CM and did wonder could it be anything. When you get EWCM around ovulation how long do you get it for? I only got it for 1 day this month and I think I usually get it for longer. It gets hard to remember what's normal for each month I swear my body just changes it up to confuse me. That'll be good if you can hold off till then..I'm thinking of getting some frers, where do you get yours from? I will try to hold off for as long as I can.

@dizzy85 mine only lasted 1 day too, I ordered mine off amazon two for £6 odd. I didn't wanna get them from the shops because I knew if they was in the house I'd test ridiculously early. I've felt slightly dizzy the last day or so but I could be imagining all of this. Except the sore boobs they're def there. I'm quite bloated too I'm only small but atm I look about 6months preg 😆 that might be cake though

@MrsB899 oh that's good then maybe I do normally just get the one day too, I should start properly tracking my symptoms each month..but then I don't think my phone would have enough memory for that 😆! That's a good price I may order some today ready for next week..late next week. Haha maybe the cake that's funny, I'm bloated this morning but I did eat loads of party food last night, I went to my SIL party where she told me they are trying for their second and she thinks she's pregnant but I couldn't bring myself to say anything as we are not telling anyone it was so hard not to say anything or ask her a million questions about symptoms😄

@dizzy85 I track symptoms but not regularly. It's so hard to know if the symptoms or actually there or it's just wishful thinking. We haven't told anyone we're trying either which is horrible I normally tell my parents and SILs everything and my husband is so laid back "it'll happen when it happens" I could shake him!

@MrsB899 I did start to track every symptom initially, but then got slack with it so now I'm just looking out for anything I know I've definitely not had before. I was convinced last month I was pregnant I had a week off work because I was practically too exhausted to move and felt really run down I was like this has to be it but then af came..it definitely makes you crazy..the amount of weird things I type into google with pregnancy symptom? after it 🤦‍♀️ my OH is just the same says he's not worried and it will happen soon..men just don't get it.

Hey 🙋🏼‍♀️

Mind if I join? I’m TTC #2. Came off pill in January and had 28 day cycles in Feb and March, this month I’ve just finished a 12 day long period and I’m supposed to be in my fertile window now, but not sure if that would be right as I’ve literally only just come off my period! So not sure how long my cycle will be this month.
Trying to take a relaxed approach this time as my son is 2 in July so I’m in no rush really, although it would be nice.
I fell on the first try with my son and that hasn’t happened this time.

I was a crazy symptom spotter last time, it drives you mental doesn’t it! The month I got my bfp though, I noticed my nipples were darker and that was about it. Nothing else changed until about 5 weeks and I felt sick as a dog until 14 weeks! I got a faint bfp on an Internet cheapie on 11dpo last time.

@dizzy85 I'm exactly the same with google if any one looked at my search history I'd look like a nut case. Ive worked out that if I'm pregnant this cycle I'll be 11 weeks when I go on holiday. Hope that doesn't stop me flying.
Welcome @LuciBee I'm an awful symptom spotter but it's probably all in my head. I'm also a mad POAS addict 😆 I've just had a good ol cry at One born every minute too 😂 I hope I am pregnant and not just a massive psycho 😂

@Aberforthsgoat @mynameisMrG not sure now! All cramping has gone and no sign of AF, who knows could have been implantation cramping 😂 wishful thinking!!

I think I'm going to try my first FRER Tuesday (9DPO) as it seems lucky 😉

Welcome @LuciBee - we're also trying for #2, my DD is 2 in August, so very similar!

@MrsB 😂 I am the same! I was crying at an episode of coronation street from 2005 on Friday. Not sure why I was watching it, I was stuck on a YouTube cycle but it was clearly an emotional one!

Ooh @MrsM sounds promising! Fingers crossed 🤞

@MrsB899 I agree with that if anyone checked mine I'd look insane 😂 and the amount of times I touch my boobs just to check if they are hurting yet, I have even caught myself prodding them at work forgetting where I am..I'm hoping nobody noticed! I think flying later on is more of an issue but I'm not sure, I do know my sister flew before 12 weeks, she's due next month. @LuciBee hello, fingers crossed for you, a 12 day period must have been horrible. I read about the nipples going darker and one month convinced myself mine were bigger and darker and kept getting my OH to look at them to check..turns out I was just mad 🤣

What symptoms does everyone get during ovulation? I pick up on almost everything that goes on with my body but I sometimes find it hard to pinpoint what it is.. I suffer from IBS as well which causes cramps and other odd pains and feelings so I get myself quite confused sometimes!! I'm interested to know what everyone else feels and goes through.. xx

@mynameisMrG glad it's not just me 😆
@dizzy85 haha I do the same with my boobs or push my arms together 😂 I just look mental if anyone's seen me doing it

@Louise190 I get cramps around the time of ovulation and more CM

@dizzy85 hey! I’m the same as you - I think we
must be cycle twins!

@mrsm18 ooh fingers crossed then!

@MrsB899 oh yes the arm pushing together is a regular occurrence for me too 😂
@Aberforthsgoat yay cycle twins!! Are you gonna test early or wait? Have you had any symptoms yet?
@Louise190 I normally get bloated during ovulation and have the EWCM and sometimes get ovulation pains in one side like sharp stabbing pains.
