Hola so even though I said I wouldn’t, I’m at that point in the 2WW where seem to doin is think and worry about whether I’ve caught or not. Ive been doing BBT and today my temp dropped below the cover line. I’m 6DPo, had painful boobs which are increasing since 3 dpo (although this is a usual sign for me that I guess of happened) going out of my mind! Had a bit more cm than usual fx this is my month! How’s everyone else getting on?? X

Hi @Claire78564,

Thankyou for your response. I had the test because I have follicle tracking scans because I have secondary infertility unexplained issues. I am under the centre for reproductive medicine at the local hospital. At the scan on the Tuesday I had a follixle that was 20.4mm and the nurse said it was about to rupture any day. I had to then go back on the Friday to check that the follicle had ruptured and I had ovulated which I had. I then had to go on Wednesday for a blood test to check my progesterone level to ensure I definitely ovulated. Which I got the result of 31.3 so that basically proved I did ovulate. My cycle last month was 34 days but surely ovulation having come 8/9 days ago from my app states that I should have a 31 day cycle if I'm not pregnant. I'm getting no symptoms that I'm pregnant or AF is coming I must admite. Think I'm possibly clutching at straws praying I am pregnant but this TWW is driving me insane. X

Claire78564 · 17/05/2019 20:30

I know that feeling. The tww is torture. The main thing is that you are ovulating my cycles tend to be 31-35 days and I ovulate on 17–20. It’s good that you are being monitored. I would say it all sounds positive. It is frustrating though that sometimes you can have sex at the exact right time and the egg and sperm just say no lol we will all get there soon though! I keep reading that cm should be wet and creamy. Mines started to become a bit sticky but still wettish. I’m 8dpo. Good that we are all together x

@ELW85 same here I'm not symptom spotting but things are happening and my brain is linking them 😂

@0teaandtoast0 how many dpo are you? If you're further long could use a different brand?

@Mummylaura1988 it's good that you are being monitored and all sounds positive 🙂

@Claire78564 my Cm has changed to mister white pasty and sticky

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Abi58 · 17/05/2019 22:35

I think I'm 2dpp. Far too early for any symptoms but I have got some odd things going on!

Cramps and backache are lessening which is good but I have the sniffles and a really sore throat, almost tonsillitis feeling! 😭 I hope it's not like this every month around ov!

ELW85 · 17/05/2019 22:51

@abi58 I feel like I’ve got a cold too! And I’ve got twinges and cramps at 4/5DPO. Must.stop.linking. Haha!

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 12:19

Hi ladies how goes it today? My boobs are pretty sore today! I took my temp at 4 this morning after getting up for wee and it was lower than yesterday so decided to go back to bed and take again at the usual time...it had risen to higher than yesterday! Not sure if that’s a good thing or accurate but there you go. Boobs are pretty sore too especially when I’m going down the stairs...cm has gone wet and less creamy.. fx for all of us x

ELW85 · 18/05/2019 12:43

@Claire78564 Hiya! Did you manage to get another 3 hours solid sleep before your second temp? All sounds positive though!!
How long before you’re testing?

I’m so crampy today (5dpo) but I realise the chances of it being anything are remote!

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 13:47

I’d say I got about 2.5 hours so I guess that’s okay! Im not gonna test till the missed period! Think I will stress myself out if I do it earlier. Cramps sound positive! X

ELW85 · 18/05/2019 15:13

Testing when you’re due is a good idea, for exactly the reasons you’ve said!

Thanks - I’m trying to not read into it too much :) but the first time they’ve been positive, haha!

dottyp0104 · 18/05/2019 15:22

Hi ladies. AF is due on Thurs. Currently have rather uncomfortable cramping and lower back pain. Never get this even during my AF. This TWW is so frustrating

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 15:27

I’m just convinced af will turn up on either tues of weds, my boobs are increasingly painful and cm has dried up...we shall see! Thing is if I wasn’t trying for a baby I bet I wouldn’t notice anything except the boobs!

Hello everyone👋🏼 hope I can join too😊 9dpo today and did a test yesterday and was obviously negative, don't know why I do this to myself sometimes. Keep getting twinges and backache and sore boobs. Not testing now till Tuesday as that's when af is due x

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 18:46

Hi @Katie2207 I am also 9 dpo, too scared to test! I think it is way to early to be honest. How long have you been trying? It mind boggles me that you can dtd at the right time but it still doesn’t result in the BFP. I also have painful boobs. Mine tend to get sore from ovulation to Af. How about you? Xx

OP posts:
Katie2207 · 18/05/2019 18:51

This is our 17 month😩 but I know it'll happen someday. I have pcos so we both know it's gonna and long ass journey to get there!! What about you?? my boobs never get sore after ovulation, however the day after I got extremely sore nips which I know can happen after ov but I've just never had it before and ever sinse I've had twinges and the occasional backache🤞🏼🤞🏼 however I'm putting the sore boobs to af as it always happens about a week before x

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 20:28

Aw Katie! I’m sure you will get there soon! I have a couple of friends with PCOS and they now have kids so it will happen. I have been trying since November. We caught in jan but sadly lost it :( this is our third try since the mc. Just feels rubbish because I know I had it once and can’t see it happening again. Some doctor told me psychologically my body might not allow me to have another one until after the due date of the original pregnancy but think she’s talking out of her butt! Just gotta keep trying. Yeah my boobs hurt mildly from ov and then it get s more intense closer to Af.
My last pregnancy, my boobs were so sore I struggled to lie on my stomach!

Katie2207 · 18/05/2019 20:43

@Claire78564 so sorry to hear about your loss😔 hoping this your month🤞🏼 feel like I'm reading into every sign I'm getting these days😂 when are you planning on testing??

Claire78564 · 18/05/2019 20:56

Thanks ❤️ Yeah I’m doing the same. I spend two weeks completely hopeful and two weeks dreading Af. I’m gonna wait until after af should of turned up...how about you x

OP posts:
Katie2207 · 18/05/2019 21:15

Might do one Monday but sinse af is due on Tuesday feels like a waste of a test if I'm not, so will probably (hopefully) wait till then and only test if I'm late x hoping that my temp dip today leads to something positive 🤞🏼🤞🏼xx

Claire78564 · 19/05/2019 07:17

Fx for you! I’ve just done my temp today and things are still ok I guess. Really hope this could be my month. Dreading the bbt tomorrow incase I see a drop. My af is due in two days time

6DPO, who’s with me 😊
OP posts:
Katie2207 · 19/05/2019 07:36

My temp has risen today in fact it's the highest it's been this cycle. Need to keep thinking it will probably go down tomorrow as I'm also due in 2 days😩 I can see from your chart you had a dip at 6dpo....could that maybe be be something positive or is that normal for you??🤞🏼🤞🏼xx

Claire78564 · 19/05/2019 07:53

Yeah it’s hard not to get your hopes up. This is my first month charting so I honestly don’t know!

OP posts:
Abi58 · 19/05/2019 08:29

@Claire78564
Charts looking good though! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I finally got my ride! Keeping everything crossed! :)

@Katie2207
That sounds good, same here today. How many dpo are you now?

I also have really sensitive/sore nipples (boob in general seems fine just the nipples 🤷🏻‍♀️) a really bad stomach since yesterday and the sniffles 😑

6DPO, who’s with me 😊
Katie2207 · 19/05/2019 08:44

@Abi58 well I'm 10dpo today and took a test because I have 0 self control and it's a negative...think I'll be moving onto next cycle😩 I have really sore boobs but that's normal for pre af, think I'm out tbh but who knows!!

@Claire78564 yes that chart definitely looks good🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Claire78564 · 19/05/2019 09:19

@Abi58, glad to se enough finally got the rise! Looks good. Fx this is your month.
@Katie2207 try not to lose hope you never know you could still get the BFP some women don’t get them for a few weeks after conception!

My boobs are also pretty sore trying not to get my hopes up. This is going to sound stupid but I need to ask! Haha do we dtd this morning and now I’m panicking that if we have conceived it could prevent implantation happening properly? Am I just being silly? Also started with a bit of a cold which is meh! X

OP posts:
ELW85 · 19/05/2019 09:23

Morning all

It’s so difficult isn’t it? I’m panicking a bit as my temp dropped this morning but I’m 6DPO, so just hoping hormone levels are ok.
