Hi all. Thought I was start a new thread that hopefully people reply to each other on!
So I'm cycle day 26 out if a usual 32 day cycle. Due my period around the 21st April. Currently got about a week left and the temptation is killing me. I've had period like cramps for the last day or 2, not as intense and my boobs are killing me, cannot even lie down on them properly. Discharge is quite snotty like too. Any one else?

Hi! AF is also due on 21st, currently 8DPO. My boobs have been killing me for about 5 days now which isn’t unusual for me but it certainly seems worse and started earlier than normal this month. Trying to to get ahead of myself though. Fingers crossed for us x

Hi @Aimy1 I'm 9dpo on our first cycle and it's KILLING ME. I felt super positive yesterday and I feel like the weight of the world is on my chest today. Its awful.

At 7dpo I had slight, intermittent pains which felt a bit like ovulation. They're still continuing on and off. They feel almost hot on the inside. Very strange as I never cramp before AF and these are so mild. On 8dpo I had about half an hour of spotting first thing in the morning, but nothing more. I never spot either. No booby pain though.

AF is due Monday, and I'm trying desperately to wait until Saturday or Sunday to test using a FRER.

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 15:54

The app I'm using, ovia, says I'm due on around the 23rd but I think it's about the 2qst. My cycles are between 30 and 35 days. I normally get cramps the day before or morning af arrives so it's very strange having it this early. I concieved almost straight away with my other 2 children so this time trying is taking over my life. Also with being in lockdown, I havent got work to occupy myself. I've got to first response early detection tests ready and it's so hard not to do them. I normally dry up down there aswell but I keep feeling like my period has come and my knickers are slightly wet my cm (sorry tmi) x

Hi guys,
I’m about 5dpo depending what app I go by! Using Flo and femometer. I’ve had cramps and my boobs; only way I can describe is like the feeling after breast feeding, also if I squeeze my nipples I have fluid coming out ? Sorry TMI! My little boy is nearly 2 and I haven’t breast fed since he was 5months so hoping these are signs.

fiona2911 · 16/04/2020 16:34

hey! I'm TTC #1 and this is our first month of trying. Due AF on 26th April so currently in the TWW. Nice to know that there are others out there that feel the same :-) And also nice to talk about something that isn't to do with the C word that is everywhere at the moment :-)

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 16:54

@Scottish26 I literally squeezed my boobs an hour ago and fluid came out which never does on my left boobs, I've always got a bit of something in the right. I'm think my af is coming though, have had cramps all today like it is x

Hopefully it stays away! I’m trying not to symptom check! I never did this with my first, I was just in the head space if it happens it happens and luckily happened first month! Started trying last month, had negative tests then had a positive but got AF 2 days later used a FRER and got the positives then went onto their website and so many bad reviews so this month I’m just going to try hold off as long as possible.

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 18:54

@scottish26. I had exactly the same last month although I also got a positive on a clear blue, test 5 days early with frer and got positive and then clear blue 4 days early but then af arrived a day earlier than expected. So think I may have had a chemical. I was gutted. I'm proper symptom checking this month. Even checking my cervical position even though I know after ovulation it can be all over the place x

I'm on cd32. Usual cycles are 29-32 days. I have done two tests and both BFN. One was an FRER that I did today. I haven't tested with FMU though . No AF. No symptoms anymore either. I do keep checking as I have been feeling wet the past week but it was white cm (tmi).

Scottish26 · 16/04/2020 20:57

@Aimy1 sorry to hear that! You sound like me I checked mine haha!
@fertility1 maybe try one in a couple days! Fingers crossed for you x

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 20:59

I'm awful, I cant speak to anyone though because they think I'm going doolally 😂 cramps have eased off tonight but my boobs are killing me!

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 21:00

@Fertility1 I've seen people take quite a while to get a bfp, maybe give it another couple of days and if so doesnt come then test again. Fingers crossed for you x

McBeck33 · 16/04/2020 21:09

Hi all,
I’m new on here 🙌🏻. Hoping you might be able to help. So my fiancé and I decided to see what happens since the 14th Feb. I had my normal period from the 15th feb - 23rd feb. Then I started a period again on the 28th feb until the 15th March. That was not normal at all for me and I had scans/blood tests from the docs and got the all clear.
However since that time my fiancé and I have had unprotected sex 3 times and now my app is telling me I’m ok cycle day 49 but have had no period since stopping the last freak period?!
For the last two weeks I’ve had cramps but not like period cramps more like a dull cramp and my nipples have been tingling on and off for the last two weeks too. I’ve also noticed my lower back aching (which is not like me) and a bit gassy (Sorry for all the info!). But I’ve taken pregnancy tests (about 5 of them!!) over the last week and all are negative?! They are cheap ones from Amazon but should still work right?! So basically I’ve no idea what’s going on... if my cycle is just thrown off or could I actually be pregnant and it’s too early to test?! My normal cycle is 25 days minus last month when my periods seemed to have a bit of a wobble (docs thought it could be stressed due to me taking exams in Feb). We both have teenagers between us from previous relationships so shouldn’t have any conceiving issues. I just have no idea what’s going on?! Any ideas please?? Thanks

McBeck33 · 16/04/2020 21:13

Ps - sorry if I’ve just jumped onto someone’s thread and talking all about me 🙈! I’m new to this site and not sure how to post new things! 😊

Aimy1 · 16/04/2020 22:00

@mcbeck33 welcome! I dont really have any advice, were you on the pull or anything before? I stopped my pill the 8th dec and my period didnt come until the 19th jan which was unusual as every other time I've stopped the pill my period came back within days. No other advice I'm afraid, maybe stress delaying period? Xx

Hey! Jumping on.. AF due around 28th.. first time TTC (

Littlebee1990 · 16/04/2020 22:11

Sorry hit post too soon ha! Nice to have some buddies and hoping for BFP for you all (I’m trying to learn the lingo ha!)

Aimy1 · 17/04/2020 08:14

@Littlebee1990 welcome! I've got 6 days left of waiting according to my app, think I may test on monday though! My boobs are seriously hurting me!

OP posts:
Scottish26 · 17/04/2020 10:51

@Littlebee1990 Hey!

Ok so this morning still got sensation in my boobs but my CM is really creamy and lots of it!
How is everyone today x

Littlebee1990 · 17/04/2020 11:07

I feel “normal” I don’t have high hopes for this month.. we only decided to TTC 4 days before ovulation so only DTD a handful of times.. but hey never say never! Also only come off the pill in January.

Scottish26 · 17/04/2020 11:36

You never know might be lucky and get it first time! We have being DTD every day bar 2 since I finished last AF! So I’m hoping it’s going to work this month! Don’t want to big an age gap between first and next one! On feeling normal my last pregnancy was a dream no symptoms so feeling normal doesn’t put you out ☺️x

Aimy1 · 17/04/2020 11:49

@scottish26 my cm is a bit like water today, cervix high and soft. I'm crossing everything!

MrsEmilyB · 17/04/2020 12:43

I had a BFN at 9/10dpo today (9 according to Femometer, 10 according to Natural Cycles) so I feel really sad. I used a FRER too 😢

DH and I DTD this morning and I had spotting after. I've also had an upset tummy last night and today. I so hoped we would catch this cycle so I feel super sad.

Aimy1 · 17/04/2020 12:49

@MrsEmilyB you arent out completely until af arrives! I gave in and tested today and got a BFN in only like 7dpo though, but I couldnt help myself! I've got one test left so I'm going to wait until monday before doing that, I'll probably have and do it in the morning though 😂
