Came off pill:19/12

First period:17/2 (32 days)
Ovulation: 4/3 (Cycle day 17)
Hi everyone, I told myself I would play it cool with it being the first real month but I’ve been symptom spotting like mad. I’ve had quite a lot of symptoms this month. I’ve never get pain in my nipples but this month they’ve been so full and sore for the past few days, I’ve had also had back ache, hot flashes, heavy feeling in my stomach and felt as if I’ve had cold when waking. Today I’ve woke up (cd 27) and feel so sick, worried that it’s because my period is due but there’s still 6 days to go. Please say I’m not the only one symptom spotting like mad. X

I really hope it is your turn, I’m keeping everything crossed for you.
Decided I’ll try and keep myself busy tidying the house etc when I’m off work but after being up from 5am being sick I’m just going to have a lazy day today ha.

@1987Nic thanks girl! Keep those fingers crossed for me mate! Yeah lazy day today sounds ideal ☺️

@1987Nic AF is starting so that’s me officially out! But onwards and upwards (tbh prob a good thing with work being so mental at the moment) but brand new cycle so a new chance. Ordered some OPKs for this month to learn about my cycle a bit more. Did you use these? Can I quiz you? X

Keep positive ❤️. Yeh of course you can quiz me, I used clear blue advanced digital ovulation test. They tell you 4 or more fertile days, they are a bit more pricey but you get 20 so it’s well enough for more than a month if needed. What tests have you bought? I ovulated on CD 17 so you could be ovulating slightly before then. I also use the Ovia app, that’s really good for keeping a track of things. X

@1987Nic they are the exact tests I ordered yesterday ☺️ So how do you know when to start using the tests? Will it say on the box when it arrives? I use the Flo app is Ovia similar? X

Aw good I’m a total fan of clear blue. Smile Yeh it tells you when to start, I think it depends on your cycle length. I’ve never used Flo but can imagine they are similar, it tells you your fertility score and you can track periods/symptoms. x

@1987Nic oh that’s good it tells you, when they arrived I’ll have to have a read so I don’t mess it up! Although I thought AF was starting and it hasn’t so I’m still patiently waiting for her to hurry up 😂

I’m sure you’ll not mess it up Smile, seeing that smiley face on the test definitely makes you feel good. Hopefully it goes quick so you can start your next cycle towards your BFP.

Well I'm out... Period arrived with a vengeance today - 3 days early too! Feeling a bit gutted but not too bad... Onto the next cycle I guess!

AF due on Saturday and got a BFN today at 11dpo so my hopes are low. Can't help but symptom spot though. Sore boobs that are larger than normal and with darker nipples, headaches every day, gas etc... We'll see!

That sounds like it could be a good sign. I had sore nipples from about 5dpo. I didn’t test on 11 dpo but my test was much more faint on 12 dpo than it was today. What test did you use? X

OP posts:
kkr168 · 21/03/2020 11:13

I tested 11dpo, that was the day af was due & got a bfn. Today I'm 13dpo & just got my bfp.

Anyone due AF around 20/3?

How many days has it been since your last period ? x

Macaz20 · 23/03/2020 10:35

AF just finished for me, just awaiting fertile window to start again now. Whose with me? X

Juno231 · 23/03/2020 11:08

@1987Nic was that question for me? If so then I'm on CD30. My average cycle is 27 looking at my calendar, but ranges from 24-28, never over though. Then again last cycle was 24 which was a first for me as well!

Yeh sorry Juno231, for some reason it would let me tag you. Bet it’s hard waiting for you.

@1987Nic thanks! Cross everything for me! Gonna start OPK on CD8 x

buckingmad · 23/03/2020 11:47

I was due AF on 17th. Still no sign and keep getting BFN's! No sign of AF even approaching apart from sore nipples.

My cycles are usually 30 days long but can vary up to 33, cycle is now 36 days long! Desperately trying not to get my hopes up but it is unusual for my period to be this late with no reason like stress or illness.
