Hi @candycrush2298

My AF is due on 20th too.
I used the clearblue digital and ovulated on 5th June.

How are you feeling at the moment? I think its too early for symptoms but i can definitely feel something going on in there. Just like very light cramping.

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 11:31

Hi @Kaybobx

I did a strip OPK test and was positive on the 4th June so assume I ovulated on the 5th of June as well. How long have you been trying?

I'm due AF on 23/06... hoping she doesn't show up though! 😂🤞🏻

Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 11:50

@candycrush2298 I have been trying for 9 months now. I have a 2 year old girl already, i thought the second time around was supposed to be easier but clearly not.
What about you?

@hannah88j lets hope not! Sick of seeing her ugly face.

MrsDubz · 10/06/2020 11:53

I'm due on the 19th 😬

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 12:39

@hannah88j holding thumsb!!!

@Kaybobx we are trying for our first for 2 years - not putting to much thought into the first year but our second year we have been giving it our all, ovulation tracking, CM, everything. And of course a by product doing that I am symptom spot checking constantly and driving myself mad especially when AF shows herself.

@MrsDubz lets hope no AF for you either

@Kaybobx sorry totally missed the second half of your message

"How are you feeling at the moment? I think its too early for symptoms but i can definitely feel something going on in there. Just like very light cramping."

I had light cramping this morning but nothing since. I also have lower back ache just on my left side. Oh and I just found EWCM when I went to the bathromm like 2minutes ago but that could be because DH and I did the deed last night not for anything other than in the mood. Past the fertility window so I am thinking its just the last bits of that rather than anything to focus on as my CM has been watery for the last 3 days. I also had sore boobs straight after ovulation but my nipples are tingly and sensitive when I touch them.

Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 14:42

@candycrush2298 the tingling nipples is a good sign! I had that when i was pregnant with my little girl. I can't remember how far along i was though.
It took nearly 2 years to conceive her. I went for fertility scans and everything but all came back normal.

I've had watery cm for a couple of days too, a little cramping in the morning. Nothing else though. I usually have period symptoms about now up until she arrives but had nothing yet. Hopefully that's a good sign! Every little thing is symptom for me at the minute, i think im obsessed.

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 14:52

@Kaybobx I know what you mean I am completely obsessed every month I say I am going to forget about it. then that goes out the window. Every little thing my body does and I am investigating it. Glad to know tingly nipples are a good sign. Usually they feel full, heavy and a very tender by this time of my cycle. And now its only nipples that are tingly and sensitive to the touch.

I also went for the tests and everything came back clear DH was meant to go in April for his test but due to Covid all tests were cancelled hopefully with us slowly phasing out of lockdown he will get his letter in the post soon with an appointment date.

What symptoms do you usually get for PMS? Did you have watery CM and cramping with your little girl as well?

The TWW every month drives me over the edge. I have been obsessing like this for just on a year every time something pops up I over analyse. Last month I was so nauseas and thought ah this has to be it and then bam AF came so must have just been a tummy bug or something I ate.

My AF is due 21st. This is the first time we are dipping our toes in with trying again since having a miscarriage at 11 weeks in March this year. I'm supposed to be ovulating now according to my Ovia app! I have cramping a little on my right side and noticed EWCM yesterday so far so good. Wishing you all the best of luck on your test days xxx

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 15:53

@MarmieP I am so sorry for your loss. Wishing you all the best for this time round. Sounds like you are on the right track.

I had to go onto pregnacare and stop my antihistamines because I wasn't getting EWCM. Apparently my hay-fever pills were drying me up. It makes sense but who would have thought.

OP posts:
snapple21 · 10/06/2020 16:02

My period is due around the 20th. I had really strong opk on three days - but had horrendous pain the Saturday so I assume that's when I happened!
Trying for our second baby.

Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 16:15

@MarmieP sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how that felt. Wishing you lots of luck with your ovulation Smile

@candycrush2298 oh I'm glad im not the only crazy one! Any little twinge or sneeze im on google seeing if it is a symptom.
I thought i was pregnant last month, i had 2 faint positive tests and my period was 3 days late then bam AF came! I must of had a dodgy batch of tests.

I usually get cramps on and off from ovulation to AF anyway so not reading too much into anything at the minute.
I usually have really sore boobs too but they feel fine at the minute.
Although this month when i ovulated i had the most fertile CM i have ever experienced, like loads and loads. Hopefully that's a good sign

With my daughter i remember i had really bad cramps like AF was coming. We were out for a meal and i remember having to leave. I dont remember any other symptoms to be honest.
We were trying with her but this time round trying for a second ive only just discovered the OPK tests and all these forums.

@snapple21 welcome Smile keep us updated how you get on.

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 16:21

@snapple21 welcome to the tribe!!! Wishing all of us loads of baby dust

@Kaybobx yeah you are definitely not alone I spend every day up AF checking for symptoms. It drives me insane. I dont even share with DH because he will really think I have lost my mind. He would tell me not to read into it hence I dont tell him.

That sounds really positive that you had such a lot of CM. Mine wasn't much more than normal but I've only been on pregnacare a few days and stopped the hayfever pills like 2 weeks ago so if no luck this month I am really hopeful next month there will also be an abundance of CM.

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 19:11

@candycrush2298 glad its not just me! My husband thinks im mad and 'it will happen when it happens'. Erm no it needs to be planned and timed!! I got us both vitamins which i set a reminder on his phone to take, ive got all my ovulation strips on the side all timed and dated Grin he thinks im bonkers!!

Yeah the CM was really odd. I kept wiping and wiping and it kept coming. Was sooo thick and stringy too ( sorry for the TMI ).

I've just been cutting my husbands hair and had so quite strong cramps on my left side! Its gone now.. obviously ive googled it and implantation starts from 5DPO so hoping that was it.

Do hayfever pills have that much on an impact? Who would of though it

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 20:09

@Kaybobx thats amazing that you are getting so much CM I am pretty sure that is a good sign!! I know the pain on my lower left back hasn't gone away it varies in pain levels and sometimes my front just above hip bone pains a little. Its been all day. With very very light cramping in lower abdomen (just above where vag hair stops sorry tmi lol)

Usually PMS symptoms for me are extremely moody after ovulation and then about a week before AF I start with really bad cramping. And this pain in my side is how it feels when I am about to ovulate so its really weird. Also my cervix has gone higher than yesterday but that could be from the sex last night. Oh my goodness you see driving myself bonkers trying to not too look into things deeply and then spend 2 hours on Google.

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 20:22

@candycrush2298 where your vag hair stops hahaha!! I'm howling 😂 that make me chuckle.

I check my cervix too, alot of people ive spoken to are like huh whats that. Glad youre with me! Mine has been high, soft and squidgy since ovulation but today its high and hard. Now i know being hard isnt a good sign but as implantation probably hasn't happened yet I'm not ruling it out just yet.

Check us out, we've turned into medical experts haha!

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 20:30

@Kaybobx it sounds like we are in complete sync hahahaha. So day after ovulation it dropped very low and got to its lowest yesterday which is usually where it stays until AF but now its risen and also hard. I agree with you since its only 5DPO anything is still in the game. We will have just be making notes every day and updating each other of changes and Dr Google says about our new found symptoms whahahahaha!! Even if I get a BFN it will be a lot more enjoyable going through the next 11 knowing there is someone else going through the same thing as me LOL!

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 20:46

@candycrush2298 it really does!! Haha!!

Ooo abit different then, mine hadn't came down since ovulation its stayed up. Just gone from soft to hard. Not going to pay too much attention to if for a couple of days though if implantation hasnt happened yet. I've got a little symptom note pad on my phone from 1DPO what a geek 😂 keep me posted on your day 6 haha! We're not getting a BFN, we can do this together 💪🏼 LOL

NJ2910 · 10/06/2020 20:50

AF due on 20th too! 3/4 DPO so no symptoms yet. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone 😊

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 21:01

@Kaybobx yeah if yours is still high according to Google thats pretty good lol!!! Yeah I will monitor mine for the next few days to see what its up to. Hopefully there will be no BFN and only BFP. Let's see what DPO 6 has in store for us.

P.S. I have the same mine is a word doc on my pc DPO1, DPO2 etc. 🤣🤣🤣

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 21:03

@NJ2910 seems like we in the same boat. I am 5 dpo so pretty similar. Let us know what symptoms you start developing. Hopefully you're not as obsessed as me who is spot symptom checking every dam day🤣🤣

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 10/06/2020 21:12

@candycrush2298 what would we do without good ol google?! Haha.
Day 6, we're ready for you!! 😂

@NJ2910 thank you! join in the crazy gang. Is this your first pregnancy or do you have others? We'll have a daily symptom briefing, please do join in 😂

candycrush2298 · 10/06/2020 21:17

What @Kaybobx every day we will be joining in on the briefing since our DPOs are slightly different please tell us your DPO and current symptoms. If in doubt Dr Google and let us know what the ol Google tells you😂

I look forward to the updates tomorrow 😁

Even though I promise myself I will not symptom check. I can in the same breath guarantee you I will be here updating you on my symptoms🤣

OP posts:
NJ2910 · 10/06/2020 23:09

@candycrush2298 @kaybobx haha I hear ya about symptom spotting! I'm only trying to play it cool this time because the last two times I thought I had every symptom under the sun 😂 I also had a symptom note pad on my phone...maybe I need that again!!
This would be my first pregnancy so literally nothing to compare to.
Roll on the daily briefings ladies 😊
