Testing 2nd Week December

[Beau2019]

Hi girls! I know we wanted to start a thread for the ones who didn't get their BFP this month.

@Skyla01 @Mrsrobinson247 @SarahMS I know you wanted to join.

Anyone else welcome to join us on our conception journey and looking to test around 2nd week in December.

TTC #1 (2nd pregnancy)
Cycle #2
AF due around 9th September

This is my 1st month using OPKs - anyone got any advice on when to start testing?

💕

@Ange211 sorry to hear about your mc :(

Good luck with this cycle tho xx

@Sunflower2019 they are the one step cheapies from Amazon. I didn't even have a squinter of a line yesterday so it just goes to show that you do have to wait. It has faded a fair bit since I posted the pic but think that's normal. Going to order a few frers now I think.

Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting. I know it is agonising!

@Sunflower2019 I’m 6dpo now (I think) as I’m still not certain when I actually ovulated so I’m using 30th November as a date to work from 😬
I’m the same I don’t really want to note any symptoms until past a week.. I did have some boob cramps last night, not bad but made me reach up like ‘ooh what was that?’ And then it stopped 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Mumofboys17
Yes I’m the same, and it’s weird as it’s mainly when I’m in bed or laying down, just like a dull ache!
I felt sick this morning but that’s normal for me and I’ve not had breakfast yet!
I stayed up and finished watching **unbelievable on Netflix, has anyone else watched it? At first I wasn’t sure but it was actually a really good watch!!!

I’m going out tonight so I’m a little nervous about drinking but think I’ll lay off the shots and should be fine 😂

Xx

Omg I just went in YouTube and ended up watching this video about a man who had dementia and his story and he passed away at the end, never cried so much in my life 🤷‍♀️ Why do I get these videos come up in my suggested! Emotional wreck xx

@sunflower2019 no I dont temp, but may start next cycle if I'm not pregnant. I'm similar to you only 1 day ahead. I feel like this is the nutty stage of the cycle when we all cant help but symptom spot and go from positive to negative thoughts. I cried at work this morning over a sad story someone was telling that was in no way related to me or them. But this is also how I can be a few days before af. Unbelievable is such a good series isnt it!

Morning ladies!

9dpo today. Feeling a bit sick but that could easily be travel nerves as heading down from Glasgow to Preston on the train. Boobs still sore (like a dull I know you’re there sore) and back still sore. Also I’ve really gone off coffee taste, but again I think it’s that little hopeful voice in my head telling me that. I took a IC this morning and bfn but still early. My bbt also dropped slightly boo.

@Katie1109 I can’t see but photos can be deceiving!

@Monstamio looks like a good line!!

@Sunflower2019 I had to tell my mum to stop tagging me in sad animal videos as I can’t cope with them.

@Symptomspotter86 100% is the nutty stage! I remember last month this time I hated my partner, I remember it on the thread but so far my mood is fine, calm, but emotional obv! I used my clearblue and dtd plenty so part of me thinks it’s the month then another part of me thinks I want some serious symptoms to believe it but there’s been times I thought I was pregnant and then serious disappointment! I’m definitely more relaxed this month than previous ones! Xx

@Quiffy my bbt dropped today a little too.. not much but was dead on 98f..
I know my daughter who is 11 keeps showing me videos as she wants me to become vegan I like her!!!! Xx

Also had the strangest dream last night then I cracked my front tooth in half and then was sliding around this massive house sized bouncy castle trying to get away from my ex boyfriend 😂😂

@sunflower2019 my mum is thinking of it too. She’s tagging me in lots of vids of pet turkeys so we all feel guilty at Christmas haha.

I think mine was 97.6 today from 98 yesterday. Although I did take at 6am rather than 7am so could be that.

Oh em gee that dream sounds hilarious 😹😹

@Quiffy my little girl was telling me all about baby chicks getting crushed alive then Cows getting crammed in cages etc!

Yes I took mine about 30/45 mins later this morning so prob another reason it’s out, I don’t take mine exactly the same time as I wake up naturally at different times!

It is funny looking back but at the time I was devastated about my tooth 😂😂

Hi ladies x thank you for replies x I think I resigned myself to the fact that I’m not going to have my Christmas BFP. Apart from boob pain at the moment I don’t feel anything other than my af is going to arrive Tuesday/Wednesday. I’ve got af like cramps which I normally feel only day before but I put it down to being extra sensitive this month x and my cm is milky, not thick but a bit sticky 😂 I just need to keep thinking I’m not pregnant to avoid inevitable disappointment x how’s everyone else doing? @Quiffy you’re 9DPO today as well aren’t you? x

@Katie1109 I'm the same I'm 7dpo and no symptoms at all! Not even boob pain. Had a few nose bleeds this week but I don't think it's related at all. Really wanted a BFP this month. Feeling really deflated and emotional 😔

I dont know if this thread has made my imagination run away with me but I hoping for a BFP this month.

Sore boobs, a slightly full, solid feeling in my lower region, slight nausea today and yesterday morning, feel really tired and Soooooo emotional. Literally cried for the past 3 mornings too.

I'm equally aware that it could be AF on her way. I have no clue how it feels to be expecting tbh as I've never been there before. I only had my implant removed mid sept and up till that point I had periods every 25 days without fail. After removal I went 7 weeks and then it was only a really light one that lasted only 2 days and paused overnight. I then went nearly 5wks so AF arrived on 14th Nov. 26th nov I thought I saw pale blue lines on ov tests but nothing was dark enough for me to get truly excited about.
I know i must be imagining it. I've also just come off some long term medication which must be messing with my body chem too.
I'm 41. Would be ridiculous to think I wont need help after having spent my whole adult life on contraception. I dont think my body could possibly know how to behave after that long

I've just depressed myself! lol

sorry guys to be a pain
This morning i started to get cramp it start to feel like i was bleeding to went a checked there a lot of clear watery discharge i don’t normally get anything like that anyone else had this ?

Katie, I don't want to give you false hope, but those are identical to my symptoms. It's such a kicker how most of the pregnancy symptoms are the same as just before AF, though. Really hope it's good news for you in the next few days.

@Monstamio thanks hun x I’m really trying not to get my hopes up but at the moment sitting in my office feeling quite nauseated 🤢 I’m sure it’s all in my head anyway x congrats to you xx

TMI-
Has anyone had a change in toilet habits? I use to literally struggle to go and now I’m going every day, twice even at times and my stomach is making gurgling noises.. prob ibs or something but strange! Xx

@Sunflower2019 me! I go twice a day for the last 3 days but I am always regular once a day at the same time kind of girl lol 😂 stomach is bloated, gassy (sorry tmi) and makes gurgling sounds tops. I’m also veeeeery thirsty! But I’m sure that’s got nothing to do with being pregnant, just one of those things x 🙈

@katie1109 @Sunflower2019 you lot crack me up lol. I hope we are all pregnant 😓😭 I feel to pray for it!!
I had a temp dip this morning 4dpo. Looked it up and its probably a secondary estrogen surge 🤷‍♀️

Hi guys, I'm about 10dpo today. Had af symptoms about a week ago for a few days now nothing. My boobs are bigger and I can't sleep at all. The 2ww is excruciating isn't it. I'm due on Sunday so got everything crossed. Anybody experience symptoms then they just vanish?

Girls I'm having such similar symptoms today. Absolute exhaustion too like I'm hungover or havent slept at all. Feel like in floating in space. I've actually left work early as feel like poo. It could be all the emotions of going through TTC or a stomach bug/cold but I just feel weird.

Also speaking of bowel habits I'm also going twice a day and feel really gassy and bloated. As well as a dull ache like AF. It is too early for AF for me so I hope it hasnt come early

@Katie1109 my friend said thirst was the first proper symptom for her
