Despite my TTC last month, it resulted in my AF arriving Christmas Day (deep joy!) it's round 2 this month! I'm due to ovulate on Monday (6th) so anyone else wanna join me, with the overthinking, being excessively paranoid, mystery pregnancy signs and taking PT's when you know you shouldn't be! 🤣🤣
Feel free to jump on the crazy train with me!

@Ginge35 I was thinking it could be the start of implantation surely by this point? Fingers crossed!! I've got a dull ache in lower stomach now....but is it just my mind playing tricks!!!!! Ahhhhhhhh 🤯😫

newmum2020 · 13/01/2020 21:04

On the plus side @Ginge35 we are halfway thru the TWW 🤗🤗🤗

Wiggleyfingers · 13/01/2020 21:26

@newmum2020 I'm 5dpo and have a dull ache this evening. Crossing everything that it is the beginning of implantation when really it's just the crazy coming out. I didn't log pain at this time last month so hoping it's real and not a phantom symptom!

Ginge35 · 13/01/2020 21:39

@newmum2020 I don't have lower back pain just really bad cramps, but they feel like AF cramps 😭😭😭 I really want to be wrong and hoping me feel completely knackered is another sign but I think I'm just poorly!
Fingers crossed for all us ladies! My crazy is starting to manifest 🤪🤪
By the way, what does TWW mean? 😝😝

@Ginge35 two week wait!

newmum2020 · 13/01/2020 21:41

@Wiggleyfingers dull ache is a good description actually!! Mine is more back but tonight (last hour ish) I feel lower tummy aches too. Here's hoping there are a few little eggs implanting soon for us all! I'm 6DPO today 🤞not even love island is distracting me from symptom spotting 😆😆

Ginge35 · 13/01/2020 22:19

Ah yeah @ablisha I get it now haha! 🤦🏻‍♀️
I ovulated Wednesday last week, so only 5DPO! Everything I'm feeling, is exactly how I felt last month, so I really do think I'm out this month! The only thing that's different is that I'm stupidly tired! I spent most of my weekend asleep on the sofa!
And on that note I'm off to bed! Night ladies!
Keep posting! ❤️

Morning everyone, hope you are having a fab week!

I'm up to CD 34 now, no sign of AF and I'm assuming this is my settling down cycle after coming off the pill. I've had cramping at seemingly random times throughout, which I am hoping is a sign of my body gearing up for SOMETHING, but at this stage, I'm not sure what Hmm

In terms of other symptoms, all I've really noticed is being able to smell EVERYTHING, but I have marked that down to dry January, as I'm particularly sensitive to the smell of booze at the moment... As in literally smelling it a mile off!

It's looking positive for a few of you out there this week, excited to hear more Grin

HGee12 · 14/01/2020 09:55

Anyone else having zero symptoms?
I'm 7DPO and I normally record cramping and sore boobs everyday from 5DPO till AF arrived fit I've had nothing at all 🤷🏼‍♀️ hoping the change could be positive 🤞🏼

Ginge35 · 14/01/2020 10:43

@HGee12 not much my end either except cramps. My boobs are usually really sensitive right about now on the run up to AF, but nothing so far! I'm hoping the lack symptoms is a good sign but I'm not holding my breath! 😬

Hey everyone, sorry I joined then just disappeared! Finally got some time today and trying to catch up! Hope your all well and I've got my figers crossed for everyone!

I'm not sure when I actually ovulated, I know when the app says but I'm not convinced, might get the ovulation strips next month. Possibly 5/6 days or could be 3, who knows! Lol.
I'm going to test on Sunday which will be super early af not due till Wed, but it's hubby's birthday so would be fab if I was.
Hope everyone is good!

HGee12 · 14/01/2020 12:20

@Ginge35 looks like we're both the same this month then 🤞🏼

DustyDiva · 14/01/2020 13:13

Hello all, hope everyone is well 😍
Af due today but we have had no mail delivered due to being cut off by the storms so no tests!! And no af either.

ablisha · 14/01/2020 13:38

I really didn't think I'd find the tww that bad but I'm 8DPO and just want to know either way

LV1987 · 14/01/2020 13:54

@ablisha I know what you mean... I just want this cycle to be over with so we have a benchmark for moving forward. January is already the longest month in the universe, and this is just dragging it out even more!

MrsD1990 · 14/01/2020 14:30

Annoying that you can't get your tests because of this storm @DustyDiva!!

TTC is so hard. Husband thought he would be having an amazing time but he's feeling way now too. I'm in my fertile window so we have been DTD even though yesterday we were exhausted... DTD every other day now until the end of the month.

Hope we get some positives on this thread! Am thinking probability wise it's likely!!

ablisha · 14/01/2020 14:57

@MrsD1990 I have read that DTD is best every other day for sperm mobility but I guess it's all luck!

Ginge35 · 14/01/2020 16:22

@MrsD1990 you've got some restraint! I'd get in my car and drive for however long I had to, to get to a shop that sells PT's!
Fingers crossed for your delivery tomorrow!
Look at this way the longer you leave the more chance you've got if an even stronger positive!
How is everyone else feeling today? I still feel like shit. Intermittent cramping, now got small ulcers on my tongue and feeling really tired still!
I still think I'm out this month and now my body is torturing me with pre AF suffering and feeling under the weather! 😩😩😩

Wow! My grammar is horrendous on that message! 🤪

Gastonimo · 14/01/2020 20:52

How's everyone doing?
I'm about 16 dpo according to my app (although don't actually know when I ovulated).
I don't know when to test as I dont really know how long my cycles normally are.
I'm putting off testing but can't really explain why. It's like the longet I leave it the more chance of being pregnant.
I'm so hungry and tired, definitely symptom spotting!
Hope everyone else is doing ok x

Ginge35 · 14/01/2020 21:03

Hi @Gastonimo if you're 16DPO then you should be close to your AF. Hopefully not and you get a BFP instead!
How come you don't want to test?

OP posts:
Gastonimo · 14/01/2020 21:07

I think because last time round I tested way too early every month and it was so disappointing. And I kept telling myself if I don't test this will be the month. So this time round I feel like if I don't test there's more chance. Even though that's stupid!

DustyDiva · 14/01/2020 21:11

I have to get a ferry to the nearest shop and it's not sailing because of the size of the sea so I will just have to wait ...

Ginge35 · 14/01/2020 21:37

@Gastonimo totally understand!

@DustyDiva flipping heck! You are remote! Where the hell are you? One of those tiny islands off the coast of Scotland? My geography is terrible btw!

I'm now getting sharp pains in my stomach and my boobs are starting to hurt. All signs AF is due to rear it's ugly head next! 😩😩😩 devastating! I really thought this would be the month!

OP posts:
DustyDiva · 14/01/2020 21:39

@Ginge35 yes off the west coast of Scotland!! Don't give up hope, cramps are also a sign of your womb growing.... hang in there x
