New here!!

I have

  • Sore boobs (but weirdly not as full as normal?)
  • High up (my whole finger goes up,sorry TMI) but it's hard and closed?
  • I've had cramps since sunday (26/1/19) like a dull ache, no way near as bad as my normal
Pains and also much earlier for them to be happening every day.
  • Indigestion every day since Sunday but I wouldn't say it's nausea.
  • lol but a whole lot of gas - but haven't been constipated

I have a clockwork 28 day cycle and came of the mirena coil in December.

Anyone else? Any thoughts as well would be amazing ❤️

Good luck to you all ✨

I'm 7dpo but no symptoms at all, headaches but that could be down to the headcold I have. AF due next thursday :) let's hope its BFP for both of us this month xz

Hi and welcome!
I’m 8DPO today I think (based on ov pains, I haven’t been temping) and am trying so hard not to symptom spot but can’t deny that I’ve had really tingly nipples, so much gas yesterday and today have been going for a wee constantly (it was literally four times in an hour earlier). I’ve also had a few light cramps but they feel like what I usually get pre-period. I only came off the pill at the end of Nov, had withdrawal bleed pretty much straight away and period early Jan so still learning which symptoms are normal for me before AF so trying to not get too excited, it’s hard to not think about though!
Which cycle are you on? I’m on one and TTC baby #1.

KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 15:08

Yes so much luck to you!

I am also due Thursday we are matching - Ovia says I can take an early test on Monday, is that the same for you? X

KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 15:12

@Ylladyoll I meant to @ you in the first reply! I am new to this 😂

@SkyBlue20 I am on first cycle (we tried at the end of Dec but it didn't really count) and also baby #1.

The TWW is even harder than I imagined!!! It's so so hard not to pay attention to little things - I thought I had metal taste in my mouth but then realised it was from my chapped lips 😂🤦‍♀️

OP posts:
SkyBlue20 · 29/01/2020 15:19

@KateJ59 Exactly the same as us - ‘tried’ (just didn’t use protection) at the end of Dec but I don’t think I was even in my fertile week then (and definitely not tracking it) so only counting from Jan! Your message just made me realise I didn’t have my Ovia app on TTC, I just had it on tracking periods, as I was like ‘where does it say how long until you can take a test?!’ It’s now saying four days but I think it thinks I ovulated earlier than I think I did. Still, tempting 😂 It is SO hard not to overanalyse, isn’t it?! I’m SUCH a planner, too, that I hate not knowing what’s going on and feeling like I don’t have any control! Trying to reign it in around my husband though 😂

KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 15:27

@SkyBlue20

Hahaha my husband has just gone on business for a week he's prob relieved 😂. It's annoying though as I can take the early test Monday but he comes back next Thursday the day I am supposed to get AF. He said he doesn't want to know yes or no until he's back but he now
Keeps asking about my symptoms so we've banned the convo.

I am luckily quite busy from now until Monday but it's PAINFUL. I am also awful about control (I am actually going through therapy for something to do with that at the moment funnily enough - but that's about getting unwell)

I hate thinking the other way as well - like I am doing number 2 lots and I am not constipated sooooo... oh it's just awful. Let's get through this week together! X

OP posts:
SkyBlue20 · 29/01/2020 16:04

@KateJ59 Yes, lets! And fingers firmly crossed for us both! Will you do the test on Monday anyway or wait for your husband to get back? Do you have a busy weekend to keep your mind off it? I was planning to wait until the 4th so it’s been two weeks since I think I ovulated. If I were on a 28 day cycle I’d be due AF on Friday but I don’t think it’ll be that simple so I’m just guesstimating really, who knows! Maybe she’ll show her face and I don’t have to worry about it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m at a big birthday party on Saturday and feel like I want to test before that so I know if I can have a drink or not but I doubt it’d show, it probably wouldn’t make a difference anyway as I won’t drink more than one just in case if it were negative, and I’m terrified of it saying positive early and then having a chemical pregnancy!

Ylladyoll · 29/01/2020 16:13

I'm likely to wait until AF is missed maybe test friday, I really never like to see BFN, this is fourth cycle :/

itssquidstella · 29/01/2020 16:19

@SkyBlue20 do you count ovulation day as the day you get pains? I had ovulation cramps last Monday but continued to have fertile cm until Wednesday so I'm between 7 and 9dpo, but I'm not sure when to count from!

Hopin4no4 · 29/01/2020 18:02

@KateJ59 it all sounds very positive! Very much like my symptoms.
I had mirena coil removed mid Dec and bled for 3 weeks! Stopped on the 10th Jan, ovulated around the 15th Jan, got bfp on 26th Jan.
Fingers crossed for you 🤞 x

KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 18:03

@SkyBlue20

I would like to think I won't do the test Monday but I know what I am like and so does my husband (he doesn't care just doesn't want to know or find out from a mil miles away) I will try maybe I'll do it Tuesday too.

I have a busy week just by chance but good to keep my mind off it! I am also doing yoga to try and chill and watching lots of Netflix in my down time 😂

How are you finding the drinking? I am a massive lover of red wine and I have cut down, I've just drank during period and ovulation and stopped after that, CRAVING a glass of red. I know once I am pg then it won't matter, but I can't live like this every month until it happens?

Also side note, I see a lot of the line tests on here but none of the Digi ones, I have a couple of the early detection Digi ones for Monday, should I get the others?

Either way, fingers crossed for us all xx

@Hopin4no4 oh wow congrats!! 😊 ✨

I did get told mirena may not take as long, fingers crossed! Xx

OP posts:
KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 18:06

@Ylladyoll if I don't have anything Tuesday I think I will wait until Friday too, after that. I know I am silly for not just waiting - I am going to try. I have a dentist app Monday so may try oversleep so i have to rush there and no time to pee! I have everything crossed for you xx

OP posts:
KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 18:09

Also just realised in my first post I missed out the word cervix 😂😂 in my second point - high up but medium/hard and closed.

OP posts:
KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 18:53

@Hopin4no4 also did your cramps get milder? Mine are less noticeable today but were more so Sunday Monday Tuesday... x

OP posts:
Hopin4no4 · 29/01/2020 19:05

@KateJ59 I got ovulation cramps and they were really quite strong for about 5 days after, that's what made think something could have got going in there lol
My cramping has continued although it did ease off between 7 and 9 dpo and then came back x

KateJ59 · 29/01/2020 19:14

Yeah mines eased off today. Thank you :) guess I just have to wait and see! 🙏

OP posts:
Hopin4no4 · 29/01/2020 19:17

Keeping my fingers crossed for you x

KateJ59 · 30/01/2020 04:59

I've just woken up at 4:30Am feeling super nauseous. As someone with a severe phobia of being sick, I bloody hope this is an early symptom and not an illness.😭🙏

OP posts:
SkyBlue20 · 30/01/2020 08:33

@itssquidstella I’m probably the wrong person to ask as my app and I have a two day discrepancy so I’m just going g for the later day!

@KateJ59 Yeah I can imagine it’ll be tough to not test on the Monday but just think, the longer you leave it, the stronger the BFP will be ☺️ Re: drinking - I had a fair few at the weekend as we were away (not crazy amounts but more than I would at home) as read that it’s a couple of weeks before it starts taking from your blood stream. However, we had family round for dinner last night so I poured myself a (very) small glass of red, had a sip and couldn’t face the rest. Blamed my heartburn for not drinking it and went on to water, so I think I’m now naturally staying away. I’ve got a work event tonight though and not sure how I’m going to avoid it!
The early morning nausea sounds promising 🙏🏼 I feel a bit off this morning, like I’ve not had much sleep or had a few (not not many) drinks last night but also quite crampy so AF could be on her way 😒

wannabeadored · 30/01/2020 10:54

I'm 7po today, going by a few apps.

Last night was terrible , I had shooting stabbing pains most of the night that were so uncomfortable.

Cervix is near enough out of fingers reach, I can just get to it but not enough to feel if it's hard/soft.

I want this TWW over !

I'm 6 cycles in, and don't remember feeling like this .

KateJ59 · 30/01/2020 11:17

Hope You're ok and everything crossed that the pains are worth it.

I am just so confused as I know people get signals and some don't, but what I have been getting has been fairly obvious, and I wonder if it's all just coincidence but of course hope it's not! But I have had pains on and off in lower front and back and they've been like period pains, and when I do normally come on it's on the day for two days awful deep pains and gone.

Also the nausea waking me up this am - I would have thought that was mega early! But maybe not x

OP posts:
KateJ59 · 30/01/2020 11:18

@wannabeadored above ☝️

Also yes the TWW is just the worst.

OP posts:
wannabeadored · 30/01/2020 11:27

@KateJ59

Thank you.

Its so weird because it is too early for period pains ,just really uncomfortable .

If nothing happens this month I'll be disappointed but at least I can drink on my birthday 😄

KateJ59 · 31/01/2020 07:26

Might be incredibly annoying to ask! But I don't feel sick this morning nor did I wake up feeling it, could that have been a one off?
