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?

@aimy1 - thank you. I don't usually check cervix. Definitely going to add it for next month! I can reach mine with the tip of my middle finger but no idea if that's high or low haha. How do you tell?

Aimy1 · 17/04/2020 13:10

I think that's high, depends how much of finger can go in I think (it sounds so wrong 🙈) so up to first knuckle is low, second knuckle high, I think x

I’ve read a lot of people on here not getting their BFP until day 13/14 sometimes later! so disheartening when you get negative though!x

Aimy1 · 17/04/2020 16:13

It really is. I dont actually know what I will do when I finally got the bfp, I dont think I will believe it x

Hey ladies can I join?

I'm new here I'm 29 (husband is 31) and this is our first month ever ttc for baby #1. Congrats on the BFPs. I'm currently 9/10 dpo. I have been having the exact same symptoms as I could a week before AF is due but I will have to wait and see. Symptoms I'm experiencing are mild cramps, tender sore boobs, bloating and being extremely thirsty. AF due on Wednesday 22nd. I never realised how worrying this would be, and the thought of not knowing is making me want to test 24/7

Hope you all have a good day and stay safe x

Aimy1 · 18/04/2020 09:36

Hi @pugloverr it really is a horrible time, you are so excited about trying for a baby but on average I think it takes 6 to 12 months to successfully conceive. I symptom spot like a crazy woman. I'm due any time over the next 5 days so I'm trying to hold out testing for another week! I will advice not to test until your period has been missed as you suddenly develop line eyes and are then gutted if af does arrive! X

Morning all, how is everyone feeling? My boobs are still hurting like at the sides and nipples tender and hurting behind them. Keep getting cramps on and off and my cm is very watery one minute and then like glue the next. I keep feeling sicky aswell. I just know af is on it's way! X

Morning! I’ve still got fluid coming from nipples but feeling normal except for the odd wave of nausea. Thinking I’m out this month too! I’m 9/10 dpo. AF due Friday or sat! How is everyone x

Aimy1 · 20/04/2020 10:22

The weirdest thing, when I was eating my roast dinner yday, it made me gag like I couldnt swallow it. I had that with roast dinner both my previous pregnancies so I'm hoping that's a good sign. I'm guessing it's in my head though! @scottish26 I'm cd30 now so any day now I'm due on, I've had 31 to 33 day cycles so far! X

Scottish26 · 20/04/2020 11:03

Aw fingers crossed! When are you planning testing ? I’ve seen people getting positives at 10dpo and I’m literally twitching to test.x

Aimy1 · 20/04/2020 11:22

I used my tests up a few days ago, I knew they would be negative so I'm trying not to order any until the weekend if af doesnt arrive! Trying to get myself busy decorating and gardening this week! Xlqhen are you testing? X

OP posts:
Scottish26 · 20/04/2020 14:01

I’ve got 2 sat in the drawer but going to try hold out until the weekend! I’m doing the exact same trying to get all the jobs done to keep my mind distracted x

Aimy1 · 20/04/2020 14:39

I feel quite crampy today but like in my right ovary and as if I've got stitch on my left side. My pants are like wet, I've got really watery cm! It's normal quite thickly and gooey before af. I dont know, I really hope this is it. I've ordered some tests today which will come tomorrow so will hold out until atleast wednesday morning x

Think I'm out. Started spotting this morning, very light and pink. I've had a little cry, genuinely thought this would be my month 😪 good luck to everyone else x

@aimy1 Could be implantation bleed? I’ve resisted any tests but going to do a FRER at the weekend. AF is due around 27th. I’m not expecting a positive though, don’t think we did enough.

Aimy1 · 21/04/2020 07:34

Well I apparently was not due on until thursday, had a tiny bit of spotting last night before bed but I think its deffo my af. Had cramps for the last week or so and they were worse yesterday. I think I'm going to delete all my apps and that and try not to over think it all. We did the deed almost every day this cycle, it really makes me question if it's me. Weve been trying for 5 months now. Took 2/3 months with my other 2 and I didnt want to be pregnant as bad as I do now. Just feel so deflated @littlebee1990 x

May I please join? I have irregular periods and PCOS so I am not sure when I ovulate. I have been using ovulation strips but they have been hard to read. I just wanted to ask for some advice as I have symptoms and a very light second line. Do you think I could be pregnant? I wish I could add a photo here!

Aimy1 · 21/04/2020 08:35

@chutney92. You very well could be. Fingers crossed! Wait a couple of days and test again. Let us know. You can upload a picture, under where you write, there is 4 symbols, the last one is to add a photo x

OP posts:
Scottish26 · 21/04/2020 09:32

@Aimy1 how are you feeling ? Hopefully it’s implantation! Did you have implantation bleed with your other two ?x

Aimy1 · 21/04/2020 09:41

Nope, my second I had bleeding twice before 12 weeks but I think this is my af, was spotting last night and first thing but now it's gone quite red and heavy ish. I have everything crossed for you! I've deleted my apps and that so I'm going to try not to symptom spot and check this month, just try to chill out a bit. It has really upset me coming on but hey, my tests are being delivered today too 🙈😂

OP posts:
Chutney92 · 21/04/2020 10:20

@Aimy1 Thank you so much! Yes, my plan is to test in a couple of days again and take it easy - try not to obsess over my symptoms too much.

I just read you have been visited by AF. Is that true? Still have my fingers crossed for you x

Aimy1 · 21/04/2020 10:25

@chutney92 yep she arrived this morning, I think I'm 100% out this month x

OP posts:
Littlebee1990 · 21/04/2020 18:49

I just did a FRER and got a BFN (May be too early as AF not due until 28th) temptation for the better of me

Chutney92 · 23/04/2020 14:12

Hi all, just wanted to let you know I got my BFP today Grin

I can't tell anyone except my hubby right now and we are really pleased but obviously anxious/worried about the fist 12 weeks as this is our first pregnancy and I am only 1-2 weeks along according to Clear Blue's digital test!

Sending baby dust and positivity to you all x

I did want to mention that meditating and lowering my stress this month did really help me as I have always had irregular periods and PCOS.

Aimy1 · 23/04/2020 14:36

@chutney92! Congratulations! That's great news. How is everyone else doing? Af came in full flow and I did a test just because I had it and a BFN. I'm hoping for next month! X
