Hello!

I know there's millions of these 2ww threads active at the moment but wondered if there is anyone out there who is 1 day post ovulation today and wanted to wait it out with me ☺️ I feel bad jumping onto someone elses thread when they're quite a few days ahead of me!

@Sunflower2019 I hear you!!! I so want to be delighted for them but still a pang of sadness & tiny bit of resentment!

How many DPO are you again? Are you twinges all one the same side?

6 days dpo now.. got mega sore boobs this month but I know it’s too early for it to mean anything! I’ll start thinking about it a bit more next week Grin

My first pregnancy, the first sign was incredibly sore boobs. To the point I struggled to wear a bra. And I also had really strong nails.. which sounds weird but I suffer from really breakable nails & suddenly they were so strong! They stayed that way until 14 weeks (despite hideous morning sickness) and then sadly went back to being rubbish!

@Solid10 Thank you! 🥰
I also have watery, creamy CM and definitely more of it over the last few days! That and sensitive nipples too! (Sorry tmi)
And I know what you mean about feeling a tiny bit of sadness when we hear other people's news @Sunflower2019 my sister in law is due in September and I have serious bump envy! Don't get me wrong I'm soo happy for her but it just makes me want a bump of my own!

@Wooosh sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Fingers crossed for you this time - and for everybody here!

I'm 4dpo now and not really seeing much in the way of symptoms aside from the sore boobs, sensitive nipples and increase in CM. I was having a bit of cramping in my lower stomach yesterday but not much today.
When does everybody plan on testing?? I tested far too early last month and then ended up spending a silly amount on repeating tests! Determined not to do the same this time so going to try and leave it as late as possible.

Hello, I'm 3 or 4 dpo and so bloated but had a mirena coil removed recently this is my second cycle @whoosh I am 36 yrs old so similar age. Last night I started with cramping low down feels like I'm being poked, my tummy is sore by my belly button and hurts when I bend down and today I have started with lower back ache and hot flushes but no sore boobs as of yet, I'm not due af until the 09/06 so not sure if this is just after coil removal or not :/

@Jasmine7823 only symptoms I have right now are sore boobs, sensitive nipples and an increase in CM! Up until yesterday I did have light cramping in my lower stomach but not much today :\ it's still very early days I guess!

When do you plan on testing?

Jasmine7823 · 30/05/2019 23:02

@S082018 I think I'm going to try and wait until 9th because I don't want to get a positive and it be a chemical, I wont liethough I already tried 😂 I have increased cm too and a headache for 3 days 😞 when are you going to test?

S082018 · 30/05/2019 23:51

@Jasmine7823 already!! It's so hard not to give into temptation though isn't it. I don't know why we do it to ourselves sometimes when we know what the outcome will be 🙈 good luck holding off until the 9th! 💪🏽 I am thinking of testing on the 7th. I have one FR test left waiting for me!

I'm 8dpo and getting bored with waiting!

I have ferocious pmt this morning though so I'm probably out this month.

Solid10 · 31/05/2019 09:31

@chanderl - omg me too!!

I'm super emotional like I usually am week before AF!! :( :( I cried yesterday & I've already cried today during a discussion with DH and normally i would have been fine...and its only 9:30am!! haha!

Also my nipples are no longer sensitive and the abdominal pain seems to have gone too :( So think i'm also probably out.

Might just wait till day 13 dpo before testing to delay the disappointment!

@Jasmine7823 hey, I'm 35, 4dpo, 2 (ish) cycle after having my mirena removed. I had it in for 15 years (or had three of them!) I've been having cramps - I barely remember what my cycle used to be like! I thought it was ovulation but I guess it's too late.

How long did you have your coil for?

Bol87 · 31/05/2019 12:06

I’m a bit of an oddity on here it seems, last time I just tested on the day my period was due if it didn’t arrive (I had irregular cycles so that was quite normal).. tests are expensive plus it’s quite unlikely to get a positive anything under 10/11 dpo. I’m due on 8th but away at a wedding, so I will test a day early this month I think. If it happens to be positive, then I can make my excuse about not drinking! And by that point, a negative is most likely a negative so I can enjoy many a Prosecco Grin

Stay strong, the end of next week will be here before we know it!

S082018 · 31/05/2019 13:28

Nobody is out until af arrives 🙈 stay positive ladies!!

How is everybody today? I am 5dpo and feeling more tired today than usual. I'm also getting light cramps and my boobs feel sooo heavy and sore today. Hurts running up and down the stairs 😂

I've changed my mind and thinking of testing on Wednesday next week by then I'll be 10dpo. I'm going away Wednesday night for a few days so I want to know if I can have a few drinks or not!

Hey @S082018 mind if I join? I've just read that you're 5dpo, I am too so thought it would be good to join! This is our first month off ttc, I used the clear blue ovulation test and got a static smiley on Saturday morning so thinking I ovulated on Sunday.
I've got slight cramps today and my nipples have been really sore for the past couple of days but definitely aren't as sore today so I don't really know what to think about that!
I'm thinking of testing on 9th June, I'll be 14dpo by then so will hopefully get an accurate result!
Do u have any symptoms and when are u planning to test?

Sunflower2019 · 31/05/2019 18:50

@Solid10

I’m about 5dpo so not much.. but I may of ovulated early!
This cold is making me forget my symptoms.. but sore boobs definitely

Dtd later tho.. fingers crossed this month they’ll be some BFP!!!! 💗

Welcome @DaniX91 😊
Similar symptoms to you! I have had light cramping today and my boobs are feeling very full and heavy, nipples are also very sensitive and looking a bit larger than usual 😂 maybe they've always been that big and I'm just paying extra attention to them now?! Who knows! I've had an increase in CM these past few days too.

I am planning on testing on the 5th, I'll be 10dpo then but that's only because I'm going away Wednesday night through to Saturday. I'll probably then test again on the 9th unless af arrives as that's when I'm due to come on.
When is your af due?

This is my first proper month of trying too. Last month I felt such strong symptoms but just happened to dtd two days before ovulation by chance! Didn't realise the dates until a few days later but it was a BFN anyway. It was when I got my BFN that I realised just how much I wanted this to happen soon!!

Fingers crossed to all. Really enjoying keeping an eye on this post and listening to everybody's stories and symptoms. Sometimes it's just not the same talking to the hubby as I'm sure he gets a bit bored of this kind of talk all of the time!

@S082018 oooh sounds positive for u! I'm stressing because my nipples were a lot more sore then they are now and my actual boobs haven't felt any different.
I was on the pill and this is my first cycle off it so I've got no clue when AF is due to be honest!
Surely by 14dpo I'd get an accurate result, that's as long as AF hasn't shown up by then!
How old are u if u don't mind me asking?
It is really nice having people to talk to who are in the same boat isn't it😊

S082018 · 31/05/2019 20:18

@DaniX91 you're not out yet!
I also came off the pill in March after being on it for 9 years! But I have started using a few apps to track my af and ovulation dates which may help you too if you haven't already considered it! I'm 27, how about you?
Yes definitely nice to talk to others in a similar situation 😊

@S082018 did u ever have periods while on your pill? I was on Cerelle and only bled about 4 times in 11/12 years, nothing like an actual period either!
Aw I'm 27 too 😊.
I didn't take my last pill til 10th May and got a positive ovulation test on the 25th.
Have u been testing for ovulation too?

Report
S082018 · 31/05/2019 21:28

@DaniX91 I was on Microgynon so yes I had a bleed during my pill free week! I have been pretty regular since March though.
I haven't been testing for ovulation but I have been using apps to monitor it which seem pretty accurate so far!
Aww yay sounds like we're in very similar situations, even our age!

Are you taking any supplements at the moment? I am currently taking Pregnacare conception vitamins. I have heard great things about them but also have read that it can delay cycles a little bit so I'll have to wait and see what this month brings 🤔

DaniX91 · 31/05/2019 21:33

@S082018 ahh right, that's good that your cycles have been regular since stopping. I don't even know if I remember what a period feels like😂.
Very similar by the sounds of things☺️
Yea I take those too! The pink tablet for us and a yellow one for him? We started taking them the day that I stopped my pill x
