@shhhhs I’m 8dpo today and extremely impatient.

shhhhs · 13/03/2020 10:05

@1987Nic the ttw is killer isn't it! Have you been trying for long?

dublino · 13/03/2020 11:55

@Babydancing2020 yes I had been under the care of my gp who also was specialised in fertility. However she has gone on maternity leave now herself so I have been referred to a fertility clinic. I'm back in two months to hopefully go on lethrozole ( I had been on clomid for the past 5 cycles) .

How is everyone feeling today. Only symptoms for me today so far is sore boobs and they arent even as bad as they had been

Babydancing2020 · 13/03/2020 13:20

@dublino i pray tht ur pregnant and dont have to go back for further treatment!
And literally all my symptoms are gone. I dnt feel anything anymore even the cramps are gone...dnt know wht to think anymore sighs

@Babydancing2020 I wouldn't be too worried about the symptoms. Whe I got my BFP last time all I had was tingley nipples , random crying that one day and bad gas the day before . My friend is 12 weeks pregnant , she told me she has zero symptoms bar sore boobs and nipples . Hopefully we all get some good news this month! I tried another Wondfo this morn like a gobshite! clearly its negative. I seem to think my wondfo where quite sensitive but I read today that they are 25mu so not sensitive at all! So no more stupid testing til at least Sun or Mon.

@shhhhs I'm either 7 or 8dpo as well depending which app I go off . When are you going to start to test

Babydancing2020 · 13/03/2020 15:07

@dublino yeah i remember with my son i only experienced cramping and sore boobs..i feel so nervous about the intense cramping i had2 days ago tht lasted for 2 days i cnt help but think tht it could be an implantation...
ur giving me the test jitterssss but i dnt have any tests to test with and i dont wanna buy a expensive one from the shop even though waitrose is literally around the corner....i ordered internet cheapies 2 days ago still hasnt arrived...i only ordered 5 cheapie tests cuz i know myself if i buy a whole pack i end up testen everyday morning and nightBlush

Hi guys. Hope you don't mind me joining.

I'm CD18 (I think) First month off the pill though. Had my period after and this is my first full cycle. So I'm not sure If I'm even ovulating.
I'm using the FLO app and the day it assumes ovulation I had some pretty bad cramp on the lower left side. So I'm hoping it was right.
I'm going to OPK and temp next month I think.

I have two children in late primary school from when I was younger (18 when I had DS1) however I never actually tried for them Blush

This will be my OH first and I'm hoping we will all be brought together as a family. I'm also excited to do it "properly" as I feel I was a really crap mum in my kids younger years ...

Tbh I think I will now become a complete TWW crazy lady. I have already took two cheapy tests and I'm 4DPO ...
Hoping we can all keep each other calm xxx

Babydancing2020 · 13/03/2020 18:28

Omdz im stressing myself out!!! My oh just received an email from his gym that they advice to not visit anymore because someone tested positive on the corona virus...my oh literally was there 2 days ago...so scared that he has corona if he does that means im infected as well and my 3y old....im always tht kind of person that thinks way ahead and im already thinking tht my son could actually die....

@shhhhs It’s only my first cycle that I’ve been tracking ovulation, I’ve had one cycle that lasted 28 days and another that lasted 32. I wouldn’t usually get my hopes up so early but I have due to having a few symptoms. What cycle are you on?

shhhhs · 13/03/2020 19:06

@dublino I would really like to hope I don't test for at least a week but I'm weak so probably next wednesday-ish (just writing this feels so long away 😣) how about you??

@1987Nic this is my second cycle following a miscarriage in Jan. This cycle has been soooo long though, I didn't ovulate until CD29!! But I'm pretty sure I did ovulate due to all the symptoms.

@Babydancing2020 I wouldn't panic too much about the virus spreading within your family. There have been no reports of it effecting children badly. Don't let it be another stress for you.

Babydancing2020 · 13/03/2020 21:36

Yeah thats true stress is not got when ur ttc.
Im craving food the whole time but not sure if its signs of a period or pregnancyyy....symptom spotting like crazyyy

OP posts:
dublino · 14/03/2020 09:56

@Babydancing2020 I wouldn't panic. Yiu wouldnhave to be in close proximity to someone for at least 15 mins to catch it. And young children dont seem to be effected by it too much so I'm sure you will be fine . Indo though think it's crazy though how slow the uk is reacting to it. I live in ireland and we closed the school etc 2 days ago.

@shhhhs I already started testing on my internet cheapies like a dope ! But I've stopped and wint test til at least monday . I'm not sure of I'm 9 or 8 dpo. Ff is telling me 9 but my ovusense I use is telling me 8 . Generally my Luteral phase is 13- 14 days. But temps arent looking too bad. My nipples were killing me last night.

Random question. Is anyone like me or know why this happens . In the morning when I wake up my boobs do be fine. However by the afternoon they start to kill me and evening they are very tender

dublino · 14/03/2020 09:57

I'd like to apologise for my typing ladies. I do this on my phone and I've got fat thumbs !

Babydancing2020 · 14/03/2020 14:19

@dublino ur not the only one every morning when i wake up i squeeze my boobs hoping to feel something but to be really honest all the symptoms i had are all gone all i feel is craving some food especially sweet foodd but tht cud be my period coming soon as well....i just received another email from ebay that my internet cheapies wont arrive untill the 17th!!!!!!!!! And af is due 18th i reallyyy wanted to test early damn it!.
Anyhow,how is everyone feeling and what are the plans for the weekendd?

7dpo and getting impatient about testing.. Trying to symptom spot but not noticing much tbh, had mild cramping and aches in my right lower abdomen for about 5 days after predicted ovulation and now nothing. I think my areola are getting a bit darker but could just be seeing things cause I want it to be there 🙄 keeping busy this weekend to try take my mind off it.
How's everyone else going? Hopefully lots of BFP's next week for us all xx

1987Nic · 14/03/2020 16:46

@shhhhs That’s good that you think you’ve ovulated. I’m totally with you saying it’s been a long wait.

1987Nic · 14/03/2020 16:47

@Jessmary94 I’m 10 dpo today, felt really sick most of the day but worried this is due to AF being on her way.

Jessmary94 · 14/03/2020 17:00

@1987Nic hopefully a good sign for you and not AF. I ovulated early this month, AF not due for another 10 days so could be a long old wait for me 😩

1987Nic · 14/03/2020 17:11

It really feels like the sickness I feel when I’m actually on my period but to be fair it’s my first child so I wouldn’t know what pregnancy sickness feels like. It’s such a long wait, I hope it’s worth it for us. Smile

Mrsdingle2019 · 14/03/2020 17:28

I'm 10 dpo today and absolutely dying to test. My husband had talked me down from doing it this weekend, so plan to wait until Tuesday hopefully (but realistically Monday is more likely 😂😂)

I've been feeling really tired the last few days with on and off very mild cramping on one side. I don't normally get any PMS type symptoms at all so I'm hoping that this is a good sign!

Wishing everyone lots of baby dust and hopefully see lots of bfps this week 💕💕

1987Nic · 14/03/2020 20:38

My boyfriend has also been really good at making me wait to testSmile. I really hope it’s a good sign for you, Sending lots of good luck.

dublino · 15/03/2020 09:09

Morning ladies. How is everyone today ?? Bought some boots early test which I may do one tomorrow if my temps dont nose dive . Has anyone used the boots one before ??

Yestrtday my nipples where on fire , really sensitive. I've also been getting a scratchy throat since yestrtday . It's probably exactly what it is , a scratchy throat but sure of course I'm gonna read too much into it and start googling!

Babydancing2020 · 15/03/2020 13:47

@dublino afternoon!!! How are u todayy? Ive read some good things about boots tests never tried them but i think it shud do the job. Im still waiting for my tests im going absolutely crazy this is not me i always test several times before af is due and now I cant even test one day! I dont get why all the parcels deliver late this month its an absolute madness it made me so upset honestly.
I had a scratchy throat as well yesterday but its gone today so will see. Im not experiencing any symptoms so i think im out this month...
Also my sister in law planned to come stay the weekend next weekend and she just cancelled cuz she wants to be "safe" from corona. Which I totally understand and respect im just really bummed about it cuz I really needed the distraction next week to take my mind off ttc. Wud have been nice if she came imagine i am out this month and i get my period i can still be alright about it cuz of the distraction but now when im gonna get my period im gonna be so sad and alone:(

@dublino yday i slept so late cuz i was watching live birth vlogs on youtube and i was crying and imagining myself there..

OP posts:
dublino · 15/03/2020 18:52

@babydancing2020 your not out until af shows which fingers crossed she wont. That's very annoying about your tests but I'd say the delay is because of the virus . Can you pop and get some own brand ones from Tesco etc??
