@Herewego2020 oh I'm so sorry to hear you miscarried :( I can't imagine how difficult that must be at the time and even now to move forwards :( it really shows what a strong lady you must be! it really does sound like you've got a lot of positive symptoms so I'll keep it all crossed for you 💗 If it's not our month at least we all have each other still here to talk it through with :) xx

november90 · 01/09/2019 19:52

@MrsMeow2019 thank you for the info! You're absolutely right... this is the first month I've ever checked it and it's never felt as I've researched it should 😂 i will have a look at the link though :) Thanks again xx

daisy129437 · 01/09/2019 20:01

Hi ladies!

So I'm 9DPO and stupidly tested this morning and of course a BFN!
I'm so tempted to test tomorrow but I've told myself to leave it until at least 12DPO and DP has hidden tests from me Blush... Yesterday and today I've had cramping but that could be because I'm so (TMI) constipated!

Hope we all get our BFP soon!

Herewego2020 · 01/09/2019 20:14

@november90 thank you so much 🤗 yes I'm so glad we all have each other that really helps. My dh is a laid back listen to the universe type person so he just cant cope with me going on and on 😂 and I'm convinced he switches off cause answers yes to stuff which doesn't require an answer lol.
Hi @daisy129437 your partner sounds like mine lol. Dont worry you got bfn as its early and try again when further along - it is sooooo hard I know.

mrsc1987 · 01/09/2019 20:16

Im out 13dpo spotting has started on que for for af arrival tomorrow, off to wait for the next bus lol.

MrsMeow2019 · 01/09/2019 20:36

@Herewego2020 sorry to hear about your loss, it must be hard trying again, fingers crossed for your BFP x

@daisy129437 I'm in the constipated boat too but keep thinking it means AF is ok the way...

@mrsc1987 sorry to hear AF is on her way, start an October bus :), I think I'll likely be on it and would be nice to see some familiar names , keep us all going !

Ooo the DHs , I think they don't feel the same , they don't know what it's like thinking about it all.the.time, tracking , worrying about ovulating ... next
Time I'm coming back as a man !

AliSxo · 01/09/2019 20:42

Hi all, barely all symptoms today, yesterday such sore boobs and on Thursday a bout of nausea. So hard to tell what's an AF symptom as this is first month off the pill. So relived that now I'm 12DPO with AF due on Wednesday so I'll know by the end of this week how I'll stand xxx

itssquidstella · 01/09/2019 20:43

@mrsc1987 bad luck but fingers crossed for next time!

I don't know what's going on at the moment tbh. I never have sore boobs ever so I don't really know what I'm looking for; I've had tingly nipples for a good few days on and off and the occasional almost shooting pain, but they haven't been aching in general, I don't think. What DO aching boobs in pregnancy feel like?! Can anyone enlighten me?

Raizelrea · 02/09/2019 07:47

@MrsMeow2019 Your OH sounds hilarious! Reminds me of mine haha

@daisy129437 I also tested at 9 DPO and obvs also negative. Been getting waves of nausea ever since but as you say indigestion and that type of thing can have all sorts of reasons. Than again constipation can be a good sign so if you have that it could be promosing (now that's a sentence I never thought I'd say 😄)

@AliSxo Do you normally get nausea before your period? I've been experiencing it for the last couple of days but don't find it normal (though we are attending weddings and family get togethers all over the place so it could be overeating 😄)

MrsMc2019 · 02/09/2019 07:57

12dpo and another BFN, it was really difficult to sleep last night as I felt like my breasts were burning from the inside out - really painful.

I’m not sure if I technically used FMU as I’ve been up since stupid o’clock going to the loo.

Feeling rather damp downstairs but it’s very watery and clear with white specks (Sorry TMI!).

Still getting random dizzy spells but that could be tiredness.

AliSxo · 02/09/2019 08:04

@MrsMc2019 I'm 13DPO and didn't want to test this morning, Monday's are bad enough without a BFN!! AF due Wednesday so we'll see what the week brings!

@Raizelrea hey! No don't normally have nausea, strange one!! Not getting my hopes up, was 11DPO on Saturday and BFN on an FRER so trying not to test until Thursday as AF due on Wednesday xxx

Blossomingflower94 · 02/09/2019 08:07

@mrsmc2019 12DPO here too and a BFN. To say I'm down in the dumps is an understatement. I've got period like cramps today so guessing it's AF on her way.

Just want to get it over with now to move onto the next cycle.

OP posts:
AliSxo · 02/09/2019 08:36

@Blossomingflower94 at least this is the week we'll all find out and if AF arrives it's into the next cycle!! I've stopped tested now as fed up of BFN, my AF due on Wednesday so either way I'll know this week xx

Chaosonthehorizon · 02/09/2019 10:13

Yes keep saying to myself that this time next week I will know either way!

Herewego2020 · 02/09/2019 10:37

I'm just trying to keep busy as off work today, so taking my son to see 'ugly dolls' at the cinema - I will probably drift off to sleep 😅🙈 then be told off for missing it. I just dont like this 2ww but know I will more than likely be going through it again next cycle. So draining.

Blossomingflower94 · 02/09/2019 11:01

@AliSxo I'm done with testing too. Im feeling my usual PMS cramps now and AF due in 2 days or thereabouts so i'm taking this month as a no. Better buy some more OPKs!

Everything crossed for you.

OP posts:
MrsMeow2019 · 02/09/2019 12:20

I'm having pre AF cramps too :(, busy miserable day at work too.

It would just be better if she shows up so we can all start the next cycle instead of being in limbo land 😭

Blossomingflower94 · 02/09/2019 13:22

@MrsMeow2019 sorry to hear you're in the same boat :( it really does make for a crappy day.

If one more person tells me to 'just enjoy ttc' ill explode.

OP posts:
AliSxo · 02/09/2019 14:00

We're not out yet ladies!! Trying to be positive I know some of us have AF symptoms but until she arrives we aren't out!! Can't wait for my BFP whenever it may come, wishing everyone lots of luck this week and I'm glad we can all chat on here!! 💗 xx

MrsT94 · 02/09/2019 14:14

Hi ladies!
Been watching this thread for a while, finally got the courage to join in🤪
Half way through my TWW, af / BFP due on 8th Sept, can’t wait!
Thought it would be nice to have somewhere to chat about ttc as hubby and I were convinced I was pregnant last cycle and af hit us hard, so I don’t want to get his hopes up again so symptom spotting in my head.
Hopping for lots of BFPs soon ✨✨

Nic555 · 02/09/2019 15:07

I'm out Af arrived today with no warning only my Second month TTC so wasn't expecting it but then with no symptoms of Af I thought we might have had a BFP. Least I know next month that AF gives me no warning so won't get my hopes up. My cycle is long after BC though so be another 4 weeks before I even ovulate. x

november90 · 02/09/2019 15:32

I tested today and it was a clear as day bfn! I knew it was coming so I'm ok.. just want af to come along now so I can move on!

Just wondered what vitamins everyone is taking and thoughts on the smep? Anyone know of any good foods for conception? Me and my husband tend to dtd everyday around expected/fertile window and then not a whole lot before and after... thinking this may not be the best technique haha!

mrsc1987 · 02/09/2019 16:26

14dpo still got brown cm/ spotting which i had yesterday, where is af? Thought for sure she was going to be here this morning (always arrives by 10am) i don't usually get much spotting beforehand... Surely too late for implantation bleeding though, Bit confused but tbh nothing surprises me anymore with ttc. Am i in still or out? Confused

AliSxo · 02/09/2019 17:04

@mrsc1987 could be implantation bleeding, have you taken any tests? I've had an AF symptom which I get when I need to wee more frequently but then I've also had nausea so unsure what's going on! Xx

Blossomingflower94 · 02/09/2019 17:12

@MrsMc1987 It could be Implantation bleeding. Eggs can implant up to day 12. I'd give it a day or two and then test if you haven't already.
