@Escaperoomuser if you really can't wait i would recommend buying the internet cheapies from amazon it helped me get by with my first, I tested every day (knowing it would be neg) until I got towards the end of the 2WW and started using more expensive tests. Or you'll end up spending a fortune lol! X

Grin now there's an idea! Although not sure it'd do my mood any good, seeing so many negatives... 🤔 Argh the waiting is so hard!!

@pineapplejuice20

My ovia app says I logged having loose bowels (fab) fatigue, happy mood, a lot of creamy CM 🤮 tender boobs, bloat. So these could be symptoms for you but everyone is different so don't ever worry if others say they have this and that and you don't :)
Brilliant 😂 I've got sore boobs which feel like.. heavy? And having the most bizarre dreams! And snapping at the OH so he's decided work is now his happy place 😂 just feel really irritable! Guess I'm just going to have to sit and wait! xx
rosiejgee · 21/07/2020 09:34

Hello and welcome @Escaperoomuser! Fingers crossed this is the monthly for you! I would wait until AF is due to test.. that's what I do now because I read so much about chemical pregnancies which are common and we'd never normally find out about unless we test early. And then it's just upsetting for people and makes you feel rubbish 😪

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 11:28

@rosiejgee hahaha oh if only gets worse when you're preggers but then you have the excuse 🤰🏻😂 like I've said to @Escaperoomuser try hold out as long as you can for testing! I wish I had tested when I ovulated as I'd like to know how out my app is. I've had EWCM a few days ago so I presume it must of been around then, so I'm going to test I think in a weeks time. Every 2 days your HCG doubles I think, so you could have a BFN one day then a few days later BFP! :)

@pineapplejuice20 I think I ovulated yesterday so in theory could I test next Monday? With my last chemical I waited until I was 1-2 days late and then started bleeding 4 days later. I don’t really want to go through that again but the waiting is also killing me already!

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 12:21

@SMB20 implantation can occur anywhere from 6-12 days after ovulating so yeah try leave it about 7 days at least 😊 aww I feel for you it's awful the wait after going through stuff like that. But keep positive 💗

SMB20 · 21/07/2020 12:24

@pineapplejuice20 I’ll try and wait as long as possible! All my CM now seems to have dried up which I don’t think is a good sign (although it did the same last month). The symptom spotting is so bad! Thank you 💖 my husband is still super positive but I’m finding it hard! Luckily I have a week off work so I’m relaxing lots!xxx

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 12:40

@SMB20 don't worry too much about CM everyone's different like I said. My last pregnancy I did have lots of creamy CM but that's not to say everyone else would have that too, bless you though it is hard even though I'm here giving advice I'm itching to test and for time to move forward 😂😂 fingers crossed eh! Xxx

Thanks for the warm welcome.

What's a chemical pregnancy?

Nannon145 · 21/07/2020 13:01

Hey everyone. I am 1DPO so officially in my 2WW this cycle. Hate the waiting 😩

We have been trying to conceive since February. Had a miscarriage in April. So this is my 3rd cycle since the miscarriage. Really got my fingers crossed 🤞🏻🤞🏻

SMB20 · 21/07/2020 13:06

@Nannon145 I think I’m 1-2 days post ovulation now so we are on the same timeline! Fingers crossed and I’m sorry for your loss x
@escaperoomuser a chemical pregnancy is an early miscarriage before 5 weeks. They call it a chemical because the pregnancy is too early to show on an ultrasound.

BringMeThatHorizon · 21/07/2020 13:38

Can I join? I'm ok CD22, pretty sure I'm 8dpo, AF due on the 28th. Really struggling with the urge to test as I know it's early! Good luck to everyone!

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 13:53

@BringMeThatHorizon you sure can! Not long for you now though. You can always try a FRER early response. Can take them up to 6 days earlier, but I used one of them with my first and that showed positive 1 day after my period was due! So I must of ovulated a lot later than I thought :)

OP posts:
pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 13:53

Is everyone on here trying for DC1 or DC2?

OP posts:
BringMeThatHorizon · 21/07/2020 14:01

@pineapplejuice20 I only have internet cheapies in the house so trying to resist testing as I know they won't show anything this early. Trying to not spend loads of money on tests and just be patient, but it's hard! With my DS I got a faint positive at around 9dpo I think.

Escaperoomuser · 21/07/2020 15:07

Thanks SMB.

I already have a dc8 with a precious partner. We didn't ttc so this is the first time I'm actually trying. All new to me and I'm 40 so feeling a bit worried I'm past it 😬

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 15:35

I hope this is our month the. Guys 💗

You're due AF the same day as me!! Fingers crossed for you! x
sindylouwho · 21/07/2020 16:09

Can I join. Had a bit of cramping today. Only mild and didn't last long.

Escaperoomuser · 21/07/2020 16:09

Previous, not precious 😂

Although he does think he's a precious snowflake I'm sure 😁

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 16:40

@Escaperoomuser hahaha precious 😂😂

Hi! Can I join?
I should be ovulating tomorrow - OPKS getting darker - so will be awaiting AF on the 4/5 August.
TTC number 2 - DD is 9 months but I want to be pregnant again by 40 if I can Smile
This is cycle 2 but we didn't go all out last month as I was still a bit Confused at the thought! But BFN told me I was actually ready.

Startingagain87 · 21/07/2020 19:54

Can I join?? I haven't been tracking anything but I know my period is due on Sunday. I actually did a test this morning as got confused and thought I was due on last Sunday so thought I was 2 days late. Was bfn but I have been feeling awful since Saturday, bad headaches, dizzy and a few got flushes. When should I test again? After my period is due? Thanks

pineapplejuice20 · 21/07/2020 20:46

Hi all new to this post! So excited for you all. Hope we all get the results we want this month but this isn't a race I suppose but a marathon 😂 I'm trying to just take each day as it comes currently and reminding myself that when my body thinks I'm ready it'll happen! How's everyone been today?
