So I’m only 2 or 3 soo, but I obsess every month with symptoms and I’m constantly checking google for ‘symptoms leading to bfp’ or something related. Is anyone also in the 2WW now and want to share symptoms and craziness?

@Chez13 hmm.. i dont want to test now for it to be negative and my AF to come tomorrow.. so il wait for tomorrow morning! it's not there anymore atm so who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi can I get some advice? So we dtd last Friday about 3 days after I ovulated as DH was away. However later that day my period came and it was horrible. But it stopped and then I had just pink on wiping.

Since then I've started feeling really really sick this weekend, sore (ish) boobs, loose stools (sorry), dizziness and exhaustion. Now it could be a bug with all the symptoms but I dont know!!

When should I test if I do? My cycle is really short. It's about 24 days bag on

smiletillyoumakeit · 29/09/2019 18:22

I've just suddenly started to feel quite shaky like my hands are trembly similar to if you haven't eaten except I am eating loads!! Has anybody had this??

Ameliasmummy12 · 29/09/2019 18:42

@cb22 that’s what I’m doing too as I have one test, tomorrow I will be one day late so if no af I will test too.
@smiletillyoumakeit I felt like that about a week ago too, I had pains in my thighs which was weird. I felt really heavy and bloated. Also with the shaking, felt exactly the same yesterday, but I put that down to being overtired with DDs birthday antics!
@YoureAQuizardHarry absolutely loving the name! Not really sure what to advise as I have to say I’m not familiar with shorter cycles, mine are long. Do you mean you got your period a few days after you ovulated?

YoureAQuizardHarry · 29/09/2019 18:46

@Ameliasmummy12 yeah so I ovulated on the 16th and DH was away so when he came home early hours of the 20th so we DTD which was intended but not to ttc! Then my period arrived later that day. But now it's been a week since we had sex and I ovulated.

And I feel like shit 😂

YoureAQuizardHarry · 29/09/2019 18:47

@Ameliasmummy12 thanks!! Love Harry Potter 😂

Ameliasmummy12 · 29/09/2019 18:59

The thing that strikes me is your luteal phase being that short if that was your period? @YoureAQuizardHarry, are you sure it was your period? X

OP posts:
YoureAQuizardHarry · 29/09/2019 19:07

@Ameliasmummy12 it was heavy but a lot shorter than usual. I've just done a test but it's negative so I'll wait a week and do it again thanks!

Ameliasmummy12 · 29/09/2019 19:41

Yeah definitely do another in a few days, as that does seem strange. Let us know too! X

Hi ladies would you mind if I join?

First cycle ttc after a miscarriage in June. Worst tww of my life! Not due on till a week Monday. So I need to join the crazy train 😂 can't remember who said they had stitch like pains but that was a massive symptom for me before I got my bfp! X

Dafs123 · 29/09/2019 20:41

Sorry miscarriage was July 🙄

Yogahorseygirl · 30/09/2019 02:10

Hi ladies, completely new to MN and have just stumbled upon this and now feeling slightly less mad knowing I'm not the only one!
I'm 28, TTC #1
Cycle 6
AF due Yesterday (Sunday) (I'm living in NZ so days might be a bit out of synch to everyone else!)
Have not been 100% myself for the past week.. but I did have 48hr gastro last weekend so could be down to that. Have had period pains since Friday though which is unusual for me so was fully expecting an early period and so far nothing.
Last night i had sharp boob pain and again just thought AF would appear imminently. But it's now Monday afternoon and still, nothing. Have done 2 tests and both negative.
This is torture!! Hoping that joining this thread will help to keep me sane while I keep waiting

Chez13 · 30/09/2019 11:29

@Ameliasmummy12 hope no sign of af yet ? X

Ameliasmummy12 · 30/09/2019 11:35

Nothing at all yet @Chez13, had cramps etc but I’m nearly 2 days late now, did a frer this morning really really and it looked negative to me, very mild line but not enough to say it’s there if that makes sense x

Don’t worry @Yogahorseygirl and @Dafs123 you’re more than welcome to join the wacky train! X

Hi! Can I join the obsessing please???

Cycle 1
Cd 31 of roughly 34
Dpo 10 (af usually arrives 13dpo)
Ttc number 2

Done cheapys the past 2 days and got 2 bfn

Don't feel super pregnant and only dtd the day before ovulation

But I'm getting the odd bit of nausea plus reasonable amount of creamy cm with a pretty soft cervix

Should I use a frer tomorrow? What's my chances of getting bfp?

As much as I want to be pregnant, if I'm not it means I can drink at this wedding this weekend sooooooo... I won't be devastated by a negative, but deffo need to know before weekend

Af expected Thursday

Dafs123 · 30/09/2019 12:31

@Bstansfield I got my bfp with my little boy 4 days before af was due!x

Chez13 · 30/09/2019 12:47

@Ameliasmummy12 hey 2 days late is a defo a good sign 🤞🏼 x

zoomies1 · 30/09/2019 13:38

Hey Everyone, any room for another passenger on the crazy train?

TTC #1 for nearly 12 months but that includes an MMC back in Feb.

Cycle is normally 25/26 days and AF is due 9th October (I think) so I am only about two DPO. I don't normally believe in symptom spotting (esp. this early!) because I start imagining things but this month I've had a few odd things already -

  1. Little crampy zappy feelings like the first time I was pregnant which also started really early
  2. I had heartburn for two days which is very unusual
  3. I had minor headaches - also very unusual
  4. I have been soooo thirsty but not showing any signs of having a cold

However, after an initial spike, BBT is pretty low so it may be nothing.
I want to be able to enjoy it and get excited but I know I could end up very disappointed.

Thanks all and good luck! Grin

smiletillyoumakeit · 30/09/2019 14:51

Hi ladies,

So I am now 7 days away from af & I woke this morning with a heavy, swollen feeling in my uterus.. same as I do when I'm either ovulating or coming on. Then throughout the day I've had stabbing pains come & go. I have a bit of yellow discharge in my underwear which is completely odourless (sorry tmi). I thought maybe my frer would be delivered today but it hasn't so I took a test strip instead, knowing full well nothing would show up on a 25miu test on 8dpo but hey ho. I think I can see something trying to come through but line eyes over here is getting her hopes up I think 😂xx

2WW countdown, anyone want to obsess over symptoms?!

@smiletillyoumakeit I can't see a line BUT it's reaaalllllyyy hard to capture lines on camera so there very well could be one, especially as it's so early probably v faint, fingers crossed :) I did a FRER at 8dpo and not even a sniff of a line!

smiletillyoumakeit · 30/09/2019 15:47

@Bstansfield thank you!! :)
When did you get your bfp?xx

Bstansfield · 30/09/2019 15:51

@smiletillyoumakeit with ds got bfn at 8dpo, b faint p at 9dpo (like my husband was like nah no way that's a positive) and by 10dpo a definite line :) this time I'm 10dpo and still getting negatives, tomorrow if I don't get a bfp I'll be certain I'm out I think

smiletillyoumakeit · 30/09/2019 15:59

@Bstansfield aww well I'm keeping everything crossed for you!!!x
