Moving on from the October threads, join in those that will be testing at the end of November. (Which also happens to be my birthday!)

Hi girls just jumping on here with my story so far 🙈 took ovulation strips & Flo app. All matched in perfectly for when I was ovulating done the need on ovulation days. 3, 4 & 5 dpo I experienced on & off cramping like period cramps but milder. Had sore heads & nipples are a bit sore🙈. It’s too early to test I know that. Didn’t stop me taking some😂 only for them to be of course BFN. I’m hating this wait 😢

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 16:50

@Lou99 I feel like we are the same wave length with the dpo, af due date & symptoms!

Louu99 · 05/11/2019 17:00

@nt1992 yes! I have had headaches, but it's a pretty stressful time at the minute so I put it down to that. I haven't had sore boobs or nipples or anything else though, but I never do with AF anyway so I'm just for getting about that part haha
I purposely have no tests in the house, otherwise I'd be doing them everyday!

Are you feeling positive about the whole thing or like it's going to be another month trying? X

CiaraJ01 · 05/11/2019 17:02

@Louu99 could it be implantation pains?

Dont lose hope! As the rest have said any symptom can mean anything these days! 😂 Keeping everything crossed.

@mrsio hello! I got my first positive yesterday - ridiculously high (see yesterdays mini breakout post 😂) what OPK strips are you using? I think it's hard to judge compared on your last TTC attempts as so much can change so maybe you are a little later than last time?
X

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 17:03

@Louu99 I’m a bit in the middle about the whole thing, these cramps I never get inbetween so I’m thinking that’s got to be a good sign but everytime I think positive I remind myself not to be too positive or get my hopes up! I’m 5dpo today what are you?xx

mrsio · 05/11/2019 17:33

@CiaraJ01 I'm using One Step. They worked great for me last time. It would actually be better if I ovulated a bit late this month coz we go away for a week on Friday. I've just ordered some more to be delivered Thursday in case I don't get a peak before we go away. I figure if I order them I won't end up needing them.... That's how it works right????

His face ws an absolute picture yesterday.... What do you mean we have to have sex TODAY.... what do you mean you can only get pregnant a few days a month 🙈😂

Louu99 · 05/11/2019 17:33

@CiaraJ01 I know, I'm going to (try to) remain optimistic until AF arrives, if she does! 🙂🤞🏻

@nt1992 apparently I'm 5dpo but I'm not sure how accurate it is! I've been peeing on ovulation sticks for a while now, because I wasn't even sure if I was ovulating and I've never gone really really dark, but obviously it gets noticeably darker, so it's difficult to judge! My OH and I were pretty busy around the time I was meant to be fertile and ovulating, and my body and mind felt like I was, if that makes sense? Increased sex drive and what not but now, I don't know haha I don't feel like I'm having the right symptoms? But everyone's different I guess! X

Ellsbells112 · 05/11/2019 17:50

@Louu99 I know it's so annoying!
I'm getting period pains and I'm 2-3dpo but I'm thinking is this normal!? Do I normally get this!? God absolute nightmare! Xx

Ellsbells112 · 05/11/2019 17:54

@Louu99 actually miscalculation, I either ovulated on friday or saturday. I'm like 4-5 dpo? Jheez I'm getting my days messed up everywhere 🤣

Louu99 · 05/11/2019 18:13

@Ellsbells112 that's exactly what I'm like haha
Is it period pains? Is it late ovulation? Is it implantation?!

I guess we won't know until AF arrives, or if she doesn't and we suddenly get big bellies haha x

FutureMrsSmith · 05/11/2019 18:41

Well that cramping I had yesterday went after a session at the gym then today Iv had the same thing, cramping all afternoon but I think it may have died down again now. If this is AF she should hurry up so I can my first official period under my belt and actually have an idea about my own body but reading all your comments made me realise none of us have a clue what's going on 😂 this group makes me feel so much happier!!!!

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 18:45

Girls I’m totally lost, I wish I was 10 dpo already why is time going by so slowly? My nips are very sensitive, having on & off cramps sometimes a sharp pain in same area. I feel like I’m just imagining symptoms to make me think I’m pregnant, we are crazy 😂

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 18:46

Oh & super gassy😂🤦🏽‍♀️ My hubby is loving life atm

FutureMrsSmith · 05/11/2019 18:54

@nt1992 I'm that bloated Iv had to undo my trousers 😂

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 18:55

Oh god😂😂 I’m also bloated. I feel constantly wet down there but there’s nothing when I wipe🙈

Ellsbells112 · 05/11/2019 19:10

@Louu99 haha let's get the big bellies going!! X

Louu99 · 05/11/2019 19:42

@nt1992 that's what I'm like!! Very gassy, bloated and wet (tmi) but then that's it, nothing else. And the first one seems to be a norm for me haha

@FutureMrsSmith it's good to know we're not alone in our madness and unknowing isn't it 😂 xx

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 19:58

Glad I’ve found yous girls, somewhere to come and share everything that I’m over thinking about 🙈🤦🏽‍♀️

nt1992 · 05/11/2019 20:41

Girls, really strange and tmi question coming up...

Has anyone felt their cervix before?

Apparently if it’s high up your not pregnant and if it’s soft you are pregnant.

Only thing is I don’t really know what I’m feeling if it’s the right thing or not 😂

CiaraJ01 · 06/11/2019 08:12

Good morning!
Ok share time.
Is anyones OH going a bit OTT with it all?? Me and mine actually fell out last night over DTD 😒 I'm trying to keep the mood light and not get bogged down on the 'TTC' and at least pretending were doing all this just for fun.
But it seems constantly on his mind, between asking about the OPK readings, to avoiding DTD just before we need to. I know hes anxious that it wont work for us (see previous post being together so long etc)
I stayed up later than usual last night to watch Power and relax (Has anyone seen Sean st Patrick?? if you want to get in the mood... 😍) And he'd fallen asleep when I got to bed BARELY HALF AN HOUR LATER and he created such a fuss about it and how he's committed to trying and thought I was too. 😞 Baring in mind we DTD that morning and the night before!!
I know we wanted to DTD twice a day during fertile week but I don't want a military operation!!
Also skipped this morning now too and left my OPK tests at home cause I was in a mood.

Ellsbells112 · 06/11/2019 08:18

@nt1992 I have felt mine also but it's not 100 percent accurate to see whether you're pregnant or not as everyone is different and it could go.higher at different times. I hope so anyway because mines low and fitm again and judging by that I woupsnt be pregnant ffs! Lol

@ciaraj01 sorry i have no advise on that since I'm.the crazy one saying "we need to have sex tonight " hahaha my other half just goes along with it. But omg st Patrick is sooooooooo hot😍 watched the last episode last night! Disappointed! X

nt1992 · 06/11/2019 08:32

@Ellsbells112 mine feels quite high as I can barely feel it (if I’m feeling the right thing, probably not) I’ve gave up and I’m waiting on 30 pregnancy strips coming from eBay hoping they’ll come today😂😂

Ellsbells112 · 06/11/2019 08:49

@nt1992 🤣🤣 what dpo are you? And have you felt your cervix when its normal? You need to feel it daily to feel the changes I would guess.

I think I'm like 4-5dpo i was having weird fluttery feelings in my belly yesterday like sort of a heaviness lol? Anyway I told myself to stop feeling every bloody twinge and now I dont feel positive for this month argh! I know I've got ages yet too but I'm bloody scared of being disappointed again 😭 its so stressful!

CiaraJ01 · 06/11/2019 08:56

I've only started watching it so still on the first series 😍😍
I guessed it wasnt the norm for the guy to be the intense one 😂

Louu99 · 06/11/2019 09:03

@CiaraJ01 I guess in a way it's nice he's as invested as you are, but sometimes it's too much! I don't know why to suggest really, other than having a word and explaining how you feel about it? It's not good for you both to be so stressed out about it! Relaxation is key 🙂 I know that's terrible advice haha I'm sorry! X
