@RBCoxie I didn't have EWCM when I conceived my daughter! Only watery.

I'm 7dpo today, a few faint cramps here and there... pinching pain on right side kind of like ovulation although I'm sure I ovulated from my left? I remember when I fell pregnant with DD I had pinching pain around 7DPO but I've also had it in cycles where I haven't conceived ! I'm gonna wait till I've missed my period to test I think 🤔

RBCoxie · 22/09/2020 13:39

@MrsKey2020 ah that's great to know! Puts my mind at ease. Thank you! I've had a little thick cm today, not much, but at least I know it's the right consistency for this stage in the cycle!

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 14:06

I'm a day behind you @Mrskey2020 :-) im cramping constantly today, it waves from dull to strong :-/ when are you due AF?

@RBCoxie when are you testing?

OP posts:
MrsKey2020 · 22/09/2020 14:32

@MummyToPrince AF is due on Monday! The cramps sound like a good sign! X

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 14:36

@Mrskey2020 ooo not long :-) I'm thinking about testing on Monday! I hope so the cramps are terrible today x

HollowayL30 · 22/09/2020 15:35

@MummyToPrince I've had them today too, not so much now, hoping it's a good sign. I don't think I'm due till 29th. I'm going to try and hold out testing 🤣
@MrsKey2020 Ahh are you going to test before Monday or wait? X

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 16:02

@HollowayL30 it's a little uncomfortable warning TMI coming - > it's making me feel like if I go to the toilet AF is going to just fall out all in 1 😂🤦‍♀️ I really hope it is a good sign... My app says I can take a test in 7 days x

OP posts:
RBCoxie · 22/09/2020 18:57

@MummyToPrince I'm due AF on the 4th October but my app says to take a test in 9 days which would be 1 October. I think I'm going to try to hold out until then although I am so impatient that I'll probably cave and do one before, even though right now I know it'll be too early 😂 are you testing in 7 days or before?

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 20:22

@RBCoxie In all honesty patience doesn't run through my family so I will probably cave and test early 😂🤦‍♀️ but I'm not sure what day I will start 😂

OP posts:
RBCoxie · 22/09/2020 20:41

Haha I'm completely with you! I don't know how people hold out for so long! It's probably better not having a set date in mind and you can just go with the flow & test when you feel ready!

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 21:00

@RBCoxie oh crumbs! If i went with the flow I'd test every day until AF 😂🤦‍♀️ just kidding I wouldn't!.. No I don't know how some people do it, when I see comments like "oh I'm not testing until AF is atleast 3-5 days late" nooo I couldn't do it x

Hello, late joiner here. Ovulate about 16th, so 6dpo, cycle 2 after a chemical pregnancy last month. Trying for baby number 2 AF dur Wed/Thurs next week

MummyToPrince · 22/09/2020 21:35

@MilkchopsMcgee I'm so sorry you had a bad month last month! How are you feeling? Any symptoms? I know it's early however some of us have sore nipples and cramps x

OP posts:
MilkchopsMcgee · 22/09/2020 21:53

Thank you, I fell okay, had some cramps and twinges a couple of days ago, also just generally fatigued but other than that nothing really

ashlee89 · 22/09/2020 22:06

Good luck ladies.
This is my 3rd month TTC after a miscarriage earlier in the year at 10 weeks 💔.

Can anyone help me with this.
I have flashing smiley faces on my clear blue advanced however my lines appear as though they darkened and are becoming lighter again on the cheap sticks.

Does day 11 look as though it may have been my peak.
This is all so confusing for me Blush

BellaBella84 · 22/09/2020 22:09

Hi can I join late to the party? I'm 36 TTC#1 and am on cycle 8 ish I think?! I'm not feeling super confident about this month, not as much sex as I'd have liked. Trying not to be resentful or dwell on it, which is easier some days more than others! I'm usually pretty cool during my TWW mainly as I have a deep seated belief that nothing good is achieved from testing early. Every month I'm fine right up until the last day when I almost cave literally just before I get my period! 🤦‍♀️ I guess by that point there's nothing left in my house to clean 🤣

BellaBella84 · 22/09/2020 22:17

Forgot to add that LH peak was on the 17th and next period due on 1st October 🤞

RBCoxie · 22/09/2020 22:40

@MummyToPrince haha!! Honestly I think I'd be the same - I'm already counting down the days. I'm sure I'll be calmer in future cycles but as it's my first one I'm like a kid at Christmas!! I genuinely have no idea how people wait until after their AF is due! 😂

@MilkchopsMcgee welcome! So sorry to hear about last month - I really hope this month is your month. Sending lots and lots of baby dust to you!!

@ashlee89 I'm incredibly new to the whole OPK thing and only used a couple this month but yes it does look like CD11 was the darkest. I've heard from others that it can fluctuate throughout the month and what looks like a peak earlier on isn't, and you end up peaking slightly later - so it could be that and your flashing smiley is correct!

@BellaBella84 hey! I have everything crossed for you this month. I'm going to need your willpower not to test before AF is due - keeping busy and cleaning is a great idea! 😂 it only takes one time, so you never know - you're not out until AF arrives!

acaciabluebell · 22/09/2020 23:00

Can I join? I think I ovulated today, had pretty strong ovulation pains for a few hours. My OPKs were very nearly positive but not quite... Bit confusing really

MummyToPrince · 23/09/2020 07:52

@RBCoxie I feel like you've become my diary every morning as you are interested in what others feel 😂 7 dpo woke up with sore nipples and cramping and had 10 minutes of stitch like pain in my left side :-) how are you feeling today?

@acaciabluebell of course you can :-) go with the darkest line you get on OPK or have sex everyday for 6-7 days during fertile stage, sending you baby dust x

MummyToPrince · 23/09/2020 08:10

@RBCoxie I also need to add which I wasnt going to as I know the 'early police' will jump on me but I couldn't care... The thought of eating today is making me bork🤢 I might get some comments saying its far too early blah blah blah! But that's how I feel x

OP posts:
RBCoxie · 23/09/2020 08:20

@MummyToPrince 😂 brilliant! Happy to be a diary service! Sounds like good symptoms to have at this stage!!

I'm not feeling much today, although I am absolutely starving! Even woke up in the middle of the night hungry. My app tells me that that's quite common for this stage in the cycle though regardless of AF is coming or I'm pregnant!

MilkchopsMcgee · 23/09/2020 08:21

Not too early for morning sickness at all, I had a wave of nausea late last night that I can't put it down to anything else. Hope your feeling better later, fizzy orange lucozade helped me when I had it with DD1

RBCoxie · 23/09/2020 08:26

@MummyToPrince ah that's so interesting - I am completely the opposite today and if it was socially acceptable I would probably be ordering a large dominos for breakfast 😂

(Also, please don't worry about the early police - we are all here to support each other and have the same goal in mind! Everyone is different and quite frankly, we don't know each other/experience/health history etc so how on earth can someone say that something isn't possible?!) 💕

lepnee · 23/09/2020 08:30

@BellaBella84 My LH peak was also on the 17th! When are you planning to test? Grin
