Going potty here waiting to know! 6dpo. For some reason I'm convinced I'm pregnant and have been dreaming about that quite vividly ConfusedBlush
Trying to not connect the fact I've been gassy as hell the past couple of days, but it's hard because your mind goes everywhere 🤣 there's bound to be another cause for the heartburn, nausea, gassyness and tiredness!!
CM was thick and creamy Monday, now it's lotions/milky with clear and white together. BUT unusually it now has a slight smell to it (tmi sorry!) which I've never noticed before. Not a horrible smell just has a smell that I can't really describe. Also definitely well lubricated ATM!
Been tired, boobs are definitely a tad swollen.
Period not due until 26th.

Someone sit on me, slap me or tell me I'm not entirely potty at all?!

Now getting weird zingy shooting pains through my right boob. Kinda runs through from side/back towards to front, lasts seconds, then comes back again?

Trying not to put it all together!

4 DPO today and trying not to symptom spot! Have had different pregnancy symptoms every month since we started trying and now I’m just ignoring it all. Funny enough when I was pregnant with my son I had no symptoms at all until I was 6 weeks and vomiting! Really hoping this is my month, if not it’ll be onto IVF

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 15/01/2020 16:20

Fingers crossed for you! My last full pregnancy was 21 years ago when I was 16 and oblivious, so I haven't got a flaming clue!!!

Hi Ladies,
I’m gonna jump in too!
I’m not sure if I’m 5dpo or 7dpo! Depends which app I use! And I’m going crazy!
We weren’t trying just realised that our fun was near my ovulation date so it’s a wait and see game.
I’m very in touch with my body and have 1 DD and I knew the day after conception she was there! I was very sensitive to my ‘symptoms’ and now I’m not sure if I’m just looking for what’s not there! Mind playing tricks!!
I’ve around 3or 5dpo I had nausea, I’ve got the excess saliva, lower abdominal pressure and discomfort, loose stool (sorry for the TMI)! The zingy shooting pain since since Sunday so I dunno!
Test day should be either the 20th or 22!

Told my DH if I’m not pregnant he better commit me! Because I know what one feeling!

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 15/01/2020 20:19

I now have a weird little pain on my right side around where my ovulation pain was?!

Mummajojojo · 16/01/2020 22:02

@TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge how are you doing today! I’ve been so busy and stressed out at work it’s help the day fly by!

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 16/01/2020 22:04

Going nuts. Has cramps today. Have felt almost like I'm on my period, including 'wetness'. Even checked CM and cervix. Cervix disappeared somewhere and CM is white and wateryish!

OP posts:
Nonny87 · 17/01/2020 06:48

Hi guys, can I join? Im in the same boat. I had extreme nausea last weekend and have had a whole week of tender boobs with sporadic shooting/tingling going through them. Im gassy and bloated. Just checked my cervix and it's high and soft.

I don't know when my period is due because my period was really early and short last month! One app says I should have had my period yesterday and one predicts tomorrow! Hmm I don't want to get my hopes up because I've done a pregnancy test (manically every day this past week) and Def bfn. Is my body playing tricks on me?? xx

Mummajojojo · 17/01/2020 07:44

Eek @TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge are you holding out till Sunday on Monday to test?

I caved this morning and tested don’t know why as I knew it would be a bfn! It’s just too early!
Yesterday I did have is a ‘cold’ and it was just the sniffles and sneezing ALL day to the point I thought it was allergies! Woken up this morning and I’m FINE !
A sharp stabbing pain down there....
I have that tightness in my lower belly (near my C section scar) and if I lay on my belly to sleep that’s all I can feel feels like I’ve stretched that area too much (if that makes sense)
Boobs (no real) change...
And I also felt like I was leaking on my period yesterday but nothing! 🤷🏾‍♀️ So... the wait continues!

Welcome @Nonny87... how many dpo are you?

everpessimistic · 17/01/2020 09:28

6 DPO, and temperature has dropped today so either implantation (probably too early for that) or I’m out for this month. Really hoping it’s the first one

Nonny87 · 17/01/2020 09:29

Thanks @Mummajojojo. Im either 10dpo or 13dpo depending on what tracking app I look at! Which ones do you use?

Omg! I also had that leaking feeling when I woke up this morning. Genuinely thought I would see blood when I checked but actually unsure what an earth it was. Hoping I didn't wet myself! haha. Xx

Mummajojojo · 17/01/2020 12:27

@everpessimistic you’re not out until AF arrives!

I’m not familiar with the temperatures as a sign but hang in there! Stay positive!

@Nonny87
I use Flo and FF I got pregnant with my first using Fertility friend... so I trust that a bit more...
Today (9dpo or 7dpo) I feel fine so starting to count myself out of the running.
Still feel the stretch in the lower belly but probably just my fat Grin!

Trying to hold out until Monday to do the FRER test. But the way I’m feeling I’ll be testing everyday until AF arrives :(... it’s such a horrid wait.

I haven been checking my cervix or discharge...
just trying to busy myself!

everpessimistic · 17/01/2020 12:45

@mummajojojo I’ve been avoiding checking cervix etc too although since I’ve had my son my cervix is NOT the same as it was before So I wouldn’t know what normal was 😂😂
After ovulation temp rises and then I think some people get a dip at implantation, and it goes back up and stays up with pregnancy, or if no implantation it just continues to drop 😭 I’ll keep temping anyway and see what happens. Last month it was cruel as I got a dip 9DPO, increased back up days 10-13 then dipped and AF came

Mummajojojo · 17/01/2020 15:28

@everpessimistic oh noooo how cruel! Must have built your hopes up! Well you never know! Fingers crossed! I’m trying to will away the days! Think I need an early night!

Nonny87 · 17/01/2020 16:57

@Mummajojojo I know exactly how you feel. I've been poas every day and holding my breath but always bfn. Don't know why I do it to myself. In using the Fitbit tracker which is normally really accurate for predicting my periods but it's at the moment saying my af is one day late. The ovia app is saying I'll be due af tomorrow so who knows!

Im checking my cervix but no idea what is supposed to feel like apart from what im reading on the internet! Didn't have to check all this with my first as it happened as a surprise! Xx

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 17/01/2020 17:26

@Mummajojojo I have an frer and strips ready and trying to hold out until at least Sunday. It's my birthday tomorrow though 🤣 and I don't think I can drink,just incase. Argh!

Still having some cramps today and they are followed by milky discharge coming out TMI!!!!

OP posts:
Nonny87 · 17/01/2020 18:45

@TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge happy birthday for tomorrow! 🎉Hopefully Sunday will bring you a belated bday surprise! No such thing as tmi on these forums I don't think!! 😂 Xx

Mummajojojo · 18/01/2020 09:43

Morning Ladies,
@TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge wishing you a very happy birthday!

@Nonny87 how are you feeling has AF arrived? Hoping not for you xx

I’m feeling a bit crap today if I’m honest... emotionally.... hate this 2WW and because I’m not sure when I ovulated it’s just a guessing game... basically my 10dpo starts today or doesn’t start until Monday! So I’ll basically be testing between now and then. I’m feeling normal if I’m honest a bit of discomfort in my lower abdomen but starting to feel like it’s all in my head. No change to CM from what I can tell (I wear pantyliners daily so never really sure).
AF is due 25/26 but I’m expecting to see her now more than a BFP.

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 18/01/2020 17:54

Thanks @Mummajojojo 😊

Well aside from a crappy birthday so far as OH has had to work all day and won't be back for at least another hour yet and my best friend letting me down for tonight I'm now even more confused.

Cervix had firmed this afternoon BUT CM is shifting between white, watery and almost like EWCM and clear watery. Usually when period is approaching it's sticky buy cervix doesn't usually firm until the day my period starts (which would be more than a week early).

I'm sure life would be much easier as a man!!!

OP posts:
Mummajojojo · 18/01/2020 20:32

Awww! Sorry it wasn’t the day you hoped for :(!

I hope testing makes up for it!!!

Yeah my DH couldn’t understand the impatience... he’s a runner and I said image you had a twinge in your knee you go to the doc and the doc said you have to wait 2 weeks and I’ll tell you if you can run again or not... he was like ahhhh...Lol! So I think he finally got why I feel so anxious!

My boobs felt sore just walking up and down the stairs today but they do that when AF is on its way so I’m just fed up!

Nonny87 · 19/01/2020 20:05

I'm out for this month ladies. Af came and visited yesterday so back to square one!

How is everyone getting on? Are you testing? Xx

Mummajojojo · 19/01/2020 20:24

Sorry to hear that @Nonny87!

I’m ok... I had period like cramps last night and I normally feel like that a week before my period.

I’m looking at my apps again reading like a maniac and I think I’m supposed to be testing tomorrow or Wednesday!

So far no surprise with the BFN! No more FRER tests left so that might help me hold out testing until Wednesday (doubt it! )

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 20/01/2020 07:40

I'm holding out too. No idea what's going on but something is down there. Sadly just been called into work so am in a mad rush, after cooking hungover OH breakfast in bed before work for both of us 😂 he hasn't drank in a while so a 'quiet drink' with friends last night knocked him for six!

Will test tomorrow I guess.

OP posts:
Mummajojojo · 20/01/2020 09:26

Good luck of tomorrow’s testing.

I looked back at old tests from baby #1 and I didn’t get a positive until 12dpo which I believe is Wednesday! I’ll test again then!

everpessimistic · 20/01/2020 13:28

9DPO and I’m going to do a FR test tonight because I can’t wait and I’m obviously wanting to be disappointed. So I’m trying to hold a wee from now until 6pm.
I don’t have ANY symptoms at all. AF due in 4 days. Last time I didn’t get a BFP until cycle day 28 (I’m 26 now) but that was 9 DPO that cycle so fingers crossed. Really really hoping this is our month or it’s IVF and I don’t want to go down that route
