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!

I have no symptoms except for having had a dull ache in my lower back for about a week. No sensitive boobs or anything, think I'm out this month. Not even sure if implantation would have occurred yet but I just want to know either way so I can have paracetamol and caffienated coffee again! 😂😂

Wiggleyfingers · 16/01/2020 17:50

I agree with others @Ginge35. Take paracetamol tonight and test using FMU tomorrow. Hope you feel better soon! xxx

DustyDiva · 16/01/2020 18:00

@Ginge35 what dpo are you??
If you are having symptoms then I would think it's due to HCG so a test would be positive... so sorry you feel so awful x

Bethwox · 16/01/2020 18:03

I'm only 1 DPO and I'm already symptom spotting I have the worst dull ache in my butt plus I'm bloated and gassy! 😰

newmum2020 · 16/01/2020 18:04

@Ginge35 I'd try and wait til morning if you can. It's ok to take paracetamol even if pregnant so I wouldn't worry about that. Hope you feel better soon x

Flowerpot26 · 16/01/2020 18:10

Yeh I think wait till the morning, tho if your past 10 days then it might show, but still prob best to wait hope you feel better x

Ginge35 · 16/01/2020 18:38

Thank you ladies! I'm not going to test tonight. I shall take all of your advice and wait!
Just feel rotten and within the last hour I feel like I could vomit! 🤢 plus I have a funny tummy! Been to the loo 3 times today! All not as "normal" as usual!
That may just from me running about after work but I just don't know!
I'm only 8DPO so gonna hang off until the weekend and suffer!
May just take some paracetamol like you said!
I bet you all it's cus I'm poorly and AF arrives next week! I hope not! 🤞

Found this article which might help a few of us 😆 www.verywellfamily.com/reasons-not-to-take-a-pregnancy-test-early-1959886

Ginge35 · 16/01/2020 21:33

@newmum2020 just read the article and it's all very rational, but is the person writing the article in the middle of their TWW, because if they were, I guarantee that article would be waaaaayyy different!!!😂😂😂😂
How are you feeling*@newmum2020* any symptoms?
After my melt down earlier I my body feels normal again. No cramps, just sore boobs, but I'm taking that one with a pinch of salt!

newmum2020 · 16/01/2020 21:37

@Ginge35 so true 🤣🤣🤣I nearly had a wobble and was gonna test tomorrow but I think I've talked myself down 😆no symptoms this end, been really sneezy actually so think it's my turn for the cold. Still keep feeling my boobs in hope they'll hurt but they don't 😫I'm trying to tell myself that just cos that was first symptom last time doesn't mean it will be this time... no two pregnancies the same blah blah blah 🙄

Glad you're feeling a bit better after earlier, it's crazy what this does to us!!!!

Ginge35 · 16/01/2020 22:01

@newmum2020 I think it's because I felt so poorly I just lost my shit! 🤪
I work full time and make cakes as a side gig and have a lot of prep to do for next weeks orders, so I will welcome the distraction!
Going to leave the testing until I'm actually late.
After the disappointment of last month I really don't want the same feeling again!
I feel like death the day before I'm due on, so I'm gonna know for sure by Monday if I'm 100% out this month.
You due Monday too @newmum2020 ?

@Ginge35 Tuesday according to fitbit tracker. Good to keep busy, that's my worry as I've nothing on this weekend 🙄although also looking forward to rest!!

ablisha · 17/01/2020 06:02

BFN for me this morning 11DPO ☹️

BecauseReasons · 17/01/2020 07:05

Glad you're feeling better @Ginge35. We've got a tummy bug going around- not fun!- so I can empathise.

Sorry to hear that @ablisha. I have read that there's only a 20% chance of conception per cycle, so even if it feels like it's taking an age, it's perfectly normal. I hope that's of some comfort. You'll get there x

Ginge35 · 17/01/2020 07:45

@BecauseReasons thank you 🥰 still feel rough this morning but that's just the cold, so I'm not too fussed about that.
Woke up with more cramps and my boobs are still killing. They are only small and when I went down my stairs I had to hold them 😝
All will be revealed next week! 🤞
@ablisha that's totally crap about your BFN but it is still early days! Hang out testing again if you can! Fingers crossed you get a BFP next week! 🤞
Hope you're all ok this morning ladies!
Baby dust to all!

Hope everyone is feeling okay, and going to have a nice Weekend, we're going away for a long weekend as hubby's birthday, I was going to test on Sunday, af due Wed, shud I put the test in the bag? Or just leave it till home Monday, then wait, I won't be able to get one if I change my mind, ugh I need to be patient but it's hard x

DustyDiva · 17/01/2020 12:25

Hi everyone,
Hope you are all going ok!
I think I have some sort of mild gastro upset, feeling exhausted the last three days and nauseous but hungry at the same time. Slept 11 hours last night!!! Tests due to arrive tomorrow but I'm hoping the arrive today as the weather is finally ok again!!

Ginge35 · 17/01/2020 12:37

@dustydiva I've been feeling the same! Exhausted, only the odd bought of nausea but last night I felt so sick but still managed to stuff my dinner down my face!
Fingers crossed your tests arrive today! I'm convinced you're going to get a BFP!
@Flowerpot26 don't take the test with you! Leave it until you get home and just enjoy your weekend! Especially if it's a BFN it will ruin your weekend and you don't want that! 🥰

DustyDiva · 17/01/2020 12:41

@Ginge35 two week wait is a nightmare!!!!

Ginge35 · 17/01/2020 13:14

@dustydiva I can't believe I haven't tested yet!
My boobs are like lead today and my tummy feels really hard and still getting cramps. Everything this last week is different to last month but I'm not getting my hopes up that it's all positive signs!
DH is on night shift next week, so I'm going to test Sunday morning, as that will be the day before AF, so he's with me when I test! Don't want to do it by myself as if it does turn out to be a BFP I need to someone with me! 😝😝😝😝

DustyDiva · 17/01/2020 13:18

@Ginge35 so exciting!!! Thinking back to my pregnancy with my DS I really didn't have any symptoms, but I tested early because I kind of felt like I 'just knew' and got the BFP 10dpo. However I was on a tonne of IVF drugs so maybe that's why no symptoms. I'm crossing my eyes toes and fingers for you!!!! X

Ginge35 · 17/01/2020 13:54

I hope so @DustyDiva I'm excited for you too! Here's hoping at least some of us in this thread with add to @Gastonimo BFP!
We can't leave her by herself now can we! 😝

OP posts:
Wiggleyfingers · 17/01/2020 16:28

@ablisha sorry about the bfn 😔
No symptoms over here except for some bloating but that is usual for lead up to AF. I think I've decided to test on sunday if I don't crack before! I will be 11dpo by then so should know.

FarmerWantsABaby · 17/01/2020 17:49

I've just finished my visit from AF. Have blood tests in two weeks on my predicted ovulation dates to test if I'm ovulating and also to check my thyroid. Hoping things start to get more regular now that AF came on time last week!
Time to start tracking again!

Fingers crossed you get a clear bill of health @FarmerWantsABaby 🤞🤞
