Another near positive OPK tonight. This is 5 days in a row and only 6 days before I'm due af.. anyone else had this before? Xx

Lauren3118 · 13/09/2019 10:46

Ahh my boobs feel like boulders today they kill even when I'm walking .. anyone's else's like this?

Ellsbells112 · 13/09/2019 11:16

@Lauren3118 that's a good sign!! I dont have it though, just minor cramps today and feel bloated and hungry lol. How many dpo are you?

Lauren3118 · 13/09/2019 11:30

I'm not entirely sure as missed my peak on OPKS, max 5dpo 🤷‍♀️

Mich2020 · 13/09/2019 12:02

@Lauren3118 so weird I have no symptoms at all. Usually this close to af my boobs get really sore. But nothing 🤷🏻‍♀️ hope it's a good sign for you xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/09/2019 12:16

@Mich2020 I have no idea about your opk dilemma! Have you tried doing a pregnancy test? X

Mich2020 · 13/09/2019 12:19

@Ellsbells112 yes I have done a cheap one, don't think I can see anything on it. I have some frers for next week. All very stressful and heartbreaking every month isn't it xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/09/2019 12:26

@Mich2020 yes, its very hard and very stressful when you want it so bad! The tww is awful I dont have patience for it lol. Have you any kids already? Xx

Mich2020 · 13/09/2019 12:40

It is and I need something to be constantly occupying my mind else I'm on google lol. Yes I have a boy and a girl 11 and 7. Do you?? X

Robbo93 · 13/09/2019 12:58

I think I'm 5DPO. Didn't get a positive OPK so must have missed it, just going by my CM.

What's your experience of CM during the 2ww? Mine still seems very watery even tho I'm still doing OPKs every morning and they are a very definite negative (no 2nd line at all!) ... I thought CM started clearing up after ovulation? Xx

Mich2020 · 13/09/2019 14:34

@Robbo93 my cm seems quite a lot too.. still unsure when I ovulated properly but I think it was around the 4th. Which would make me 9dpo and mines quite creamy and white still. Good luck to you xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/09/2019 15:01

@Mich2020 ahh I'm the same, scouring forums and then sulking lol! I have an 8 year old boy, so ready for another xx

@Robbo93 @Mich2020 I've had watery too but I font know whether it's normal? It was creamy with a little EWCM on like maybe 3dpo but since then just watery. What does that even mean? Lol xx

Anny27 · 13/09/2019 15:41

@Robbo93 i always get creamy cm (and quite a bit) after ovulation. Its hard to know whats normal when you first start trying as you dont usyally track these things

I am 5dpo and have been having light cramps all day

Robbo93 · 13/09/2019 16:55

Mine hasn't been creamy, predicted day of ovulation and day after was like massive amount of EWCM and now it's just like pure thick water (no cream whatsoever)
I've been looking at CM for the past few cycles and it's different every time but I'm sure I'm usually dry 1 or 2 afterwards and leading up to AF. So confused.

I've had a few little cramps too. And feel sooo bloated. Probably not related but it hey, we all like to symptom spot xx

Mich2020 · 13/09/2019 17:23

I have two children from previous relationship so now ready for another I think 🤔 it's just so difficult, I never remember it being this hard with my second and got caught the only time I dtd with my first 🙈 the only thing that's different this month is my boobs don't hurt and I don't feel half as tired as I usually do before my period. I've looked over my app and a day or two after ov I always had sore boobs. Makes me wonder if my opk tests from the past 5-6 maybe correct and i have ovulated so late in my cycle xx

Lauren3118 · 13/09/2019 19:29

@Robbo93 my CM is a lot too, I feel so 'wet' (tmi sorry) I'm about 5dpo I think, also my boobs are killing me have no idea what's going on this is first Cycle TTC

Robbo93 · 13/09/2019 20:14

Yes @Lauren3118 I'm exactly the same! I have to keep going toilet to check AF hasn't arrived suddenly!

Mich2020 · 14/09/2019 10:24

So cycle day 28 and still getting positive OPKS. Done a frer this morning and it's negative 👎🏼 still no pms like every month. Think my body is playing tricks on me. Ahh xx

Robbo93 · 14/09/2019 13:07

😪 6/7 DPO for me and I've just had a little blood mixed in with what looks like EWCM when I wiped..
I know it's the right time for IB but unfortunately this 'spotting' has happened on previous occasions ... I'm gonna hold out hope for now but think the witch is on her way 😭 xx

Anny27 · 14/09/2019 14:32

@Robbo93 you arent out till AF arrives :) i am 6dpo and apart from cramps yesterday, having no symptoms

Mooey89 · 14/09/2019 17:12

7dpo today and so so tired.
Other than that though not feeling too hopeful!

Mooey89 · 14/09/2019 17:29

Erm.
I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t already wasted a £1 home bargains special which I squinted at to see the shadow but I’m going to try my hardest to hold off until Monday 🤦‍♀️

Anny27 · 14/09/2019 18:21

Robbo93 · 14/09/2019 19:18
