Anyone fancy a little obsessing? 😂
I'm apparently ovulating today according to peak clearblue yesterday and my apps.
I never used to have such a long luteal phase as it was only 10 days so having to wait for 14 is going to drive me nuts 🙈

@MsMiaWallace I thought you might be cycle 2 like me as our first months were the same pretty much. I hope the lack of symptoms this time around is a good thing 🙌🏻 I haven't checked my CP again yet. Maybe I should??

@SarahRay babe do not feel stupid at all, you're spot on. I only joined MN a month ago and I have learnt SO much so from being on the threads (and I joined after my FW so I felt like I had got it all wrong gah). Now I feel like I've been able to give it a better shot this month. You sound like me last month as that was cycle 1 and now cycle 2 but I'm not using OPKs as of yet. May in the future but hopefully we caught this month. Yayy!!!

@toomuchteaandcake hello hello and welcome!!! It all sounds good to me. No pressure and just enjoying it can be fun. But this TWW is a killer!!! Not much longer to wait. When is AF due?? Do you know when you might test??

@Treaclepie19 amazing - do you usually have AF symptoms a week before AF?? I really hope not chick. How is little man??

toomuchteaandcake · 15/10/2019 14:19

@SarahRay you too! Fingers crossed zero pressure = a good result

@Gigi318 thank you! My plan is not to test until AF is waaay late, my odd cycle last month means I'm not sure when I'll be due but I think it will be by 25 Oct. that's my plan anyway....!

Treaclepie19 · 15/10/2019 14:26

@Gigi318 well I don't think I do... but then when I've been pregnant I've never noticed anything on the lead up so I'm guessing its just AF.

He's still not right :( I'm taking him back to the doctors tomorrow. He's clammy, coughing like mad and barely moving from the sofa.

@Gigi318 feeling like rubbish, still got my cold and cough, backache still there. We went to a wave of light Remembrance Evening last night and that was quite emotional. How are you doing? X

Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 14:51

@toomuchteaandcake sounds good to me chick. And you'll find that either AF arrives or you will need to test 😬👏🏻 so you don't have to worry so much. I tested when AF was due last month and BFN. Then she arrived 2-3 days later it was midnight 🙈. I'm due 23rd so will test then or 22nd. Testing on a Friday is exciting. So yay for you!!

@Treaclepie19 that's so helpful that you know what to sort of expect. But also, this one could be different. Ohhh love him, yes definitely. I bet it's so worrying. I freak out when my Pup coughs funny so lord knows what I'll be like with an actual child 🤣
Currently getting some tense pulling feelings, hmm not sure I've felt that before. I'm going to just try and ignore it all now!

MsMiaWallace · 15/10/2019 16:02

@Gigi318 @Treaclepie19 are you guys testing Friday with me??

rosie561 · 15/10/2019 16:04

@Gigi318 aww glad you're feeling a bit better! AF due 25th Oct, but going on holiday on the 21st so hoping I might know one way or the other around then, because I'd quite like a drink by the pool in the sunshine if not Grin
Seems like a few people will be testing in the next week or so, very exciting! It's a relief to talk about this here as I don't really want to discuss it with anyone in real life Blush

Treaclepie19 · 15/10/2019 16:04

@Gigi318 that's so true! Well I'm very achey this afternoon and feeling a bit sick so I really think af is on the way. We'll see.

@MsMiaWallace I'd so love to. I promised myself monday though 🙈 Its very tempting 😂 I'm telling myself that I don't want to though because I always find out before 4 weeks pregnant and then end up feeling like it takes ages to get anywhere!

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 16:22

@MsMiaWallace not me chick 🙈 I need to be at least 14DPO if not late for AF 🙊😂

@rosie561 21st would only be 4 days early, you could do a FRER? Where are you going? I'd say drink anyway because the baby lives off the yolk sac until about 7 weeks then the placenta so they're not actually taking it in. And you won't even know you're PG. If that makes sense??
Absolutely. I've only told one friend who is also TTC but we don't talk about it and OH doesn't want to, so I love having you girls to keep me sane!! I think I will test 22nd/23rd. Yay!!

@Treaclepie19 oh I hope not. I'm feeling much better than yesterday just tired but that's because of a rubbish night's sleep. Again!! I say hold off if you can chick. Am I right in remembering that this would be your fourth PG in total with one DS?

Treaclepie19 · 15/10/2019 16:29

@Gigi318 yeah that's right lovely.
Miscarriage at 9w, Ds1, DS2 we lost at 22+4 termination for medical reasons ❤

Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 17:33

@Treaclepie19 that's it babe. I thought so. Cool you have notes from them though to compare and stop yourself going crazy. With all three did you have hardly any symptoms??

Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 17:40

@MsMiaWallace just checked my CP again (even though I have no idea lols) and couldn't tell between nose and lips again. But lotsss of milky white CM still. Thought it had dried up. But it was there 🤣🙈

Treaclepie19 · 15/10/2019 18:02

@Gigi318 yep! Barely anything. Though afterwards I wondered if I'd had symptoms and brushed them aside.
I think with the 2nd and 3rd pregnancies I sort of knew I was but wouldn't admit it in case I was wrong?
I feel like I can't trust myself anymore though because I'm so eager for it to happen quickly that I'm obsessing over everything!
The only things that have got me wondering properly is the aching hips at night and waking up to wee because those are pregnancy things for me that I don't normally get otherwise.
You just never know!

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 18:16

@Treaclepie19 I've heard a lot of people say that. The odd twinge here and there but got the BFP when didn't feel anything, and BFNs when convinced pregnant! Eeeek that's amazing chick. Oh I hope you are. I've also been getting up to wee but then also not sleeping well so need to wee when you're wide awake 😂🙈

Lauraliverpool · 15/10/2019 19:48

Weeing lots too, even hubby commented saying Laura what's going on with you? Feeling hungry a lot today, few twinges here and there, more so when I cough, still achey in lower back and dull aches in lower stomach.

Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 20:17

@Lauraliverpool I wee quite a lot anyway so I don't notice anything different. Hopefully it means something chick. I honestly can't say I notice anything huge. Bit of CM, the odd twinge here and there, tiredness. But the tiredness is quite normal. So, who knows if this it but 🤞🏻💖

Lauraliverpool · 15/10/2019 21:56

@Gigi318 might just be the cold weather, got everything crossed for us all 🙂

Gigi318 · 15/10/2019 22:04

@Lauraliverpool absolutely! Keeping my fingers crossed. Also, I am wide awake when I'm usually asleep at like 9pm. I've had a stiff neck for a day or two now and hard to sleep. Assume its from sitting at my desk all day but so annoying 🙈

Lauraliverpool · 15/10/2019 23:37

@Gigi I'm feeling tired even though I had a little lie in thanks to my mum looking after my little boy whilst we're staying with her whilst my living room wall is getting knocked through to the kitchen 🙈 oh no nothing worse when you can't sleep, I'm propped up in bed with 3 pillow's cause if this bloody annoying cough that is hurting my head so much! 😬

Gigi318 · 16/10/2019 00:03

@Lauraliverpool oh exciting for home renovations, even if it does mean you've had to stay at your mums. Good to have an extra hand though! Tell me about it. Lead here wide awake like 👀😩

gigi32 · 16/10/2019 03:23

@Mrsmoore7718 can't remember if I replied to you! I'll probably test Saturday maybe. I'd rather just test and get bfn rather than obsess and wait for af! Saw my friend this morning and told her and we both had a laugh about my symptom spotting. Was nice to laugh about it!!!

No symptoms really although one of my nipples last night was dark like really really dark but the other was fine! And then I had a shooting pain in my labia. Or vulver I think it might be called but I really don't think they're symptoms to write home about

Treaclepie19 · 16/10/2019 06:02

Morning all!
9dpo today, feels like I'm getting somewhere 😂
I'm actually a bit nervous because I always used to have a 9/10 day luteal phase and since losing our little boy my cycles have been between 23 and 30 days so now I'm on day 24 it could arrive anytime.
(Its also making me want to test 😂)

I can add vivid dreams to my symptoms!

Gigi318 · 16/10/2019 08:31

Morning ladies!! How are we all??

So I did not sleep at all last night and I feel absolutely gross this morning. Managed to get about 4-5 hours but feel like I've been hit by a bus! This stupid neck pain isn't helping either! Gahh!!

@Treaclepie19 eeek hopefully AF won't even show because there's a sticky little bean 🙌🏻 How are you feeling today?? Do you think you will test soon? 8DPO for me now and cannot wait for Tuesday now. Think I will test Tuesday as I'm hoping 14DPO will be okay?!

Treaclepie19 · 16/10/2019 09:24

@Gigi318 feeling a bit crampy and uncomfortable so I think my period may be on the way.

Tuesday would be fine! I'm still holding out for Monday but it's getting tough 🙈
Once I hit friday and 11dpo I know I'll be desperate to test because I've always had a bfp by 11dpo when I've been pregnant.

OP posts:
Gigi318 · 16/10/2019 09:47

@Treaclepie19 eeeeek so if no AF on Friday, test??? Please do. I never encourage early testing but if you know it shows for you, I say go for it!!! This is so exciting!!!!
