3DPO and feeling poorly 😔 TWW buddies?

3DPO and feeling generally shit. Tiny little stabbing pains in my pubic area and my lower back is killing. Feeling sick and generally full. Have a feeling I'm just getting a bug but can't help wondering if it's something else. I know 3DPO is far too early for any kind of symptoms but its always in the back of my mind 🤷🏼‍♀️
Anyone else's AF due around 21st feb?

@Fifol when are u expecting to ovulate? Xx

Fifol · 08/04/2020 14:12

@Hayleylou89 next Tuesday/Wednesday ish. Based on my average cycle. Hopefully I won't have another long one x

Hayleylou89 · 09/04/2020 08:47

@Fifol not too long to wait now them! .... im hoping i havnt shattered the hubbie by dtd too much leading up to the peak thinking it would never happen 🙈... we dtd last night but he couldnt finish this morning (sorry tmi) definitely put too much pressure on him and got too excited when i got my peak and told him i had my peak 🙈 ( lesson learned to not say a word) But I hope hell be up for the job later 🙏 xx

Hayleylou89 · 09/04/2020 08:53

Question for anyone who have successfully used CB fertility monitors.

How many times did you dtd following peak reading and if you fell pg what day during the peak did you conceive? X

2 days before ov?
1 day before ov?
Day of ovulation?

Fifol · 09/04/2020 09:00

@Hayleylou89 that was me last month! Got so excited with the static face and told him and he obviously felt the pressure. This time I'm saying nothing!!!

Hayleylou89 · 09/04/2020 15:29

@Fifol I know i just wish i never said anything either but lesson learnt... will try and feed him a few gins and make a nice romantic meal food is the way to a man heart ... we shall see what happens 🤣... wish me luck x

Fifol · 09/04/2020 19:25

@Hayleylou89 good luck girlie and enjoy 😉

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 09:03

not feeling hopeful girls iv defo put too much pressure on hubby - he was fine all week dtd we did it loads successfully before peak and first day of peak but only once in my peak time "successfully" anyway... app says ill ovulate today and my temp has gone up so i think it def will be today ... lets hope he can manage it one more time tonight maybe as hes working today on the house.

I know i shouldn't get down about it really as when we did conceive in sept i wasnt really opking religiously and we dtd 3 days before predicted ovulation and then the day before thats it that cycle and we fell but just feel a bit deflated that we haven't managed to hit all peak days properly xx I will be joining the tww tomorrow so we will see, but not feeling much hope this cycle girls xx

HalfPenny28 · 10/04/2020 09:06

@Hayleylou89 it's so hard isn't it :( sorry to hear you're not feeling hopeful this cycle. It only take one go though so you never know!

I caved and tested today (10dpo) and got a BFN so I just feel like shit today.

It'll be cycle 8 next time 😫 just getting so fed up.

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 09:34

@HalfPenny28 Easy said than done but 10 dpo is still early days although id be testing from then myself tbh have u had many symptoms.

I just messed up not knowing when or if i would peak so was dtd loads then got my peak and told him and thats when he started struggling as we dtd successfully 6 days and counting the before i told him 🙈 hoping the one day we got during the peak was enough, or i can hopefully try today and still get lucky 🍀 x

Wishing u all the luck with ur bfp in a few days x

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 09:46

How are u @AliSxo xxx

Fifol · 10/04/2020 09:51

@Hayleylou89 that was so me last time. We dtd every day for nearly 2 weeks but didnt get my peak til a few days later then hubby couldn't perform and then we were away at my parents for a couple of days so had no more chances.

You never though so dont give up hope, if it happened for you before then you have every chance again x

I started my CB opk the other day and have bad 2 blank circles so I'm thinking of holding off dtd until flashing smileys as dont want to waste any goes 🤔🤣

Fifol · 10/04/2020 09:52

@HalfPenny28 it sucks but don't give up hope yet x

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 09:53

@Fifol yeah dont waste no goes like me. Iv def learnt my lesson there!

Its going to be a long tww will obv keep u updates on things 🙏 x

AliSxo · 10/04/2020 09:55

Hey girls, I'm ok, yesterday I felt a bit anxious as I had really bad lower back ache and some small cramps so didn't like that. I've slept it off I feel much better today, I'm still very early 3+6 and 14DPO today but I'm trying to be really positive too. I was so fed up when AF showed up last time, I just felt like each month was draining me and I couldn't stand to see anyone else pregnant I just hated the whole thing. I know how you all feel I really hope you all get your BFP quickly xxx

Fifol · 10/04/2020 10:29

@AliSxo stay positive girlie xx you've given us all hope its lovely for one of our group to get a bfp and the rest of us will follow very soon!

Speaking of everyone else around us being pregnant, I'm the HR Manager for a company so usually one of the first to know if someone else is pregnant. Yesterday evening, the boss lady tells me she is pregnant, until recently she was in a relationship with a woman! Last person I was expecting that from. A few weeks ago, another girl who had said she didnt want kids found herself pregnant with twins! I have to believe my time is coming!!!!

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 11:47

@Fifol yeah dont waste no goes like me. Iv def learnt my lesson there!

Hayleylou89 · 10/04/2020 11:51

@Fifol how funny i work in HR too so have to process maternity leave requests and it is so hard to see it as i should have been going in maternity in about 7 weeks time myself 😒... our time will come though 🙏🙏🙏 xx

Fifol · 10/04/2020 12:43

@Hayleylou89 lol at the HR!

Aw thats so hard for you 😭 definitely our time is coming x

Hayleylou89 · 11/04/2020 08:20

@AliSxo when should AF be due for you.

Im officially 1 DPO.... FINALLY 🙏🌈 xx

AliSxo · 11/04/2020 09:36

Hey @Hayleylou89 my AF was due Wednesday, do you have much planned to distract you in the TWW? I found it much harder not being at work so I hope it flies by for you xxxxxx

@Fifol thanks so much!! I'm hoping it just stays, every twinge or ache I'm like thinking the worst but I want to remain positive overall xxx

Hayleylou89 · 11/04/2020 09:42

@AliSxo glad ur ok and you know i was in the hospital in agony with the pains in the first 7 weeks and everything was fine so its normal to feel all slight pains here and there mine got so bad i though something was wrong and there wasn't. The hubby is doing lots on work on the house at the min as we are converting the loft into a master bedroom so thats a little project for me to sort out what decorating stuff we want, and im working from home aswell so fingers crossed that keeps me busy, ill be testing from 8dpo as I got a faint positive last time so u never know and im stocked up on cheapies but got no frers in but will order some if i start to feel any symtoms x

AliSxo · 11/04/2020 09:49

@Hayleylou89 let me know how you get on I really hope you all get your BFPs this month!! Thanks for the reassurance about the cramps, they've gone now so that's a good sign I just worry about it but I've read it's common 💗 xx

AliSxo · 11/04/2020 09:50

My SMU was better for testing, FMU on 9dpo was nothing, SMU on 9DPO have faint line, 10dpo FMU it was fainter than 10dpo SMU xxx
