Hi guys! I believe I ovulated today (CD14) after I got a static smiley on my OPK yesterday evening, this was after a flashy smiley in the morning! We DTD last night and now comes the start of the dreaded two week wait! Does any one fancy driving themselves crazy with symptom spotting and trying to to take a test too early with me? 🤣

@BCM2021I think it's a little early for me, I'll do it Saturday morning. My cycle's been a little confusing this month so I don't want to go too early, then drink Friday night without realising haha
@LKB89 is orange a slightly older blood, would make sense the day after pink.

I've got one sore boob today (maybe I'm imagining it haha), not sure what that means lol. Roll on Friday, woohooo.

LKB89 · 15/03/2021 07:58

Morning!
@teateaandcoffee
My temp dipped this morning too, although I don't find it very reliable anymore seen as I take it at different times in the morning, was 5am this morning I woke for a wee.
However it seems to be matching the fact I had spotting??? I feel nervous!!

@BCM2021
I'm going to try and hold out till Friday, but with all these symptoms it's gonna be hard to wait that long!

One boob 🤣 wonder why just the one!

BCM2021 · 15/03/2021 08:30

@teateaandcoffee just the one lol! Perhaps the other will catch up! Exciting!
@LKB89 yes will be hard to wait! Wish there was a instant result!
I’m going to try yet another test ovulation test soon( saved FMU so it’s consistent) hopefully it’s not another smiley 🤣! 7 day surge so far don’t want 8!

Babyboom93 · 15/03/2021 08:59

Morning ladies, Sorry if too much information! I’m 7/8dpo and I’ve been really cramping the last 3 days and had some lower back ache, last night when I wiped I got a little spotting after a wee, then this morning when I wiped a bit more, still feeling really crampy! AF not due until 22nd March! Is this what implantation bleeding should look like? TTC baby #1.

TWW anybody?

@Babyboom93 Light pink or brown is what they say so that looks promising! I'm actually envious of you, I want this 😂 I want it so it will back up the cramping I've had!! I'm 9DPO today and since Friday, I've had AF type cramps and back ache.
They eased a lot yesterday but been having them again today so I'm pretty convinced AF is going to make an early appearance like she did last month! Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻 xx

LKB89 · 15/03/2021 09:25

Heeey! @Babyboom93
I'm in the same situation!
I'm 7/8 DPO today, had noticeable cramps/twinges on Saturday and then the spotting Sunday & this morning!!
First image is today and 2nd image yesterday AM. Between them two times it was very minimal or not there!
Mines a bit more on the pinky brown side to yours? Don't know what to think! But I have never ever spotted day 21/22 of a cycle ever before AF??!! I'm a 28/29 cycle kinda girl.

Gosh I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for us!!!

P.s yes they are Christmas pjs 😂

Well finally a non positive ovulation test! No face just circle, probably happened yesterday when I didn’t DTD lol, let’s see! 7 day surge what a long one!

LKB89 · 15/03/2021 11:11

Woohoo happy none smiley day @BCM2021 🤣

BCM2021 · 15/03/2021 11:22

@LKB89 lol I’ve read a lot of posts people wishing for a smiley I’ve been wishing they would stop 🤣. When do u think I should count dpo from today? Hopefully your spotting is a good sign!!

LKB89 · 15/03/2021 11:31

I really hope so, it's very out the ordinary for me.
I have some right twinges today too more like middle to back if you get me? Need to wait a few more days to test but they are staring me in the eye!!!

I wouldn't really know when your ovulation was, they say 12-36 hours after the first smiley but you have loads of smileys!!! At least you DTD a lot within them you should well have timed it good.

BCM2021 · 15/03/2021 12:06

@LKB89 oh no! Yes having them there must be driving u mad! I ordered for mine to arrive Friday when I thought I would be 10dpo might have to lock them away lol x

LKB89 · 16/03/2021 06:27

I'm out 🥺

BFN this AM 9/10 DPO

All this spotting I have had the past couple of days is clearly AF rearing her ugly head as this morning it's a darker brown.

I'm on CD23 today, never have i started to come on this early, I'm like text book 27-29 day cycles.
My LP has been so short now 😟

Why would it do this to me when I'm trying?
Feel like giving up 😣

BCM2021 · 16/03/2021 07:32

@LKB89 argh!! I’m no expert as u all must of gathered! New to this, But Isn’t 9/10dpo still very early? Like ur not out out right?

BCM2021 · 16/03/2021 07:33

@LKB89 I’ve read ppl getting bfp at like 14dpo plus x

LKB89 · 16/03/2021 07:39

@BCM2021 I know it's super early deffo, but I just have this gut feeling AF is coming and I'll be much heavier later. It was the colour this morning I am familiar with at the start 😟
Deflating! But here's to a Christmas baby 😆 x

BCM2021 · 16/03/2021 07:45

@LKB89 well fingers crossed it’s not and maybe just implantation! Really hoping for u! Maybe see how it goes and test again in couple of days? Who knew how stressful this would be I certainly didn’t!

LKB89 · 16/03/2021 07:52

It's awful isn't it @BCM2021 just makes me not want to keep trying it's too stressful!
How did 2 of my friends, 1 with PCOS get pregnancy 'by accident' and 2 within 6 weeks of trying 🙈 it's beyond me.

teateaandcoffee · 16/03/2021 08:32

Just catching up on messages!
@LKB89 I would definitely test again in a few days, i wouldn't write this month off yet.
I know how you feel though, 2 more pregnancy announcements in my group chats 🤦 but then chatting to another friend who is due her second and took over 2 years each time, everyone is different. I think you always hear about people who got pregnant first time, or it just happened, people like to talk about that (it's a little brag really) but no one wants to talk about it when it's taken you 6 months and a miscarriage, they just tend to feel sorry for you, but actually it's pretty rare to get pregnant first time, I would say I was more of the norm!

My other boob has caught up now 🤣 I did have sore boobs a few cycles ago at this time but negative test so not sure why I get it some months and not others.

StartLeo · 16/03/2021 08:44

I am 11dpo, aching sore breasts which seem to have gotten bigger. Constant mild cramping and vivid dreams but still have bfns on first response and ics. At this stage, I am confused about what's going on and if I got pregnant this cycle or not. 9dpo, I woke up with cramping that went on for a few minutes before falling back to sleep. What do you reckon is going on?

BCM2021 · 16/03/2021 09:23

@teateaandcoffee glad the other boob caught up 🤣! Yeah everyone’s different, my mum with me 1 month after stopping the pill, but then tried for my sister nothing for 2 years! Myself, pregnant with my daughter at 20 by accident from not taking my pill as as instructed! @LKB89 it must be hard having friends just falling at the drop of a hat! But like teacoffee said your not out yet!🤞

LKB89 · 16/03/2021 15:08

@teateaandcoffee @BCM2021
Well the evil witch is still to arrive properly, although I KNOW these cramps, so she's imminent I would say. Full flow tomorrow mark my words!

Haha glad your other boob wanted to join in now 🤣

Other friends being pregnant around you just adds to the pressure, trying not to let it! X

teateaandcoffee · 16/03/2021 16:15

@LKB89 are you still having spotting? It's so hard, I'm really tempted to test tomorrow but its way too early.
@StartLeo hope it all means your pregnant, it's so hard to guess!

LKB89 · 16/03/2021 16:25

@teateaandcoffee
Yeah! Only when I wee there is some, I put a pad in today to keep check and NADA! This is day 4 now wtf! It has to be AF? Early tho? I'm only CD23!
What a complete headfuck this TWW is!
What's DPO are you tomorrow?

Sorry @StartLeo I didn't see your message! I'm stuck in my own whirlwind 😂
Your symptoms sound promising don't they, it's not over till AF shows her ugly head! Test again in a couple of days x

BCM2021 · 16/03/2021 18:33

@LKB89 oh I dunno so difficult! Do u normally Just come straight on? Have to see tomo , I’m hoping not for u!! @teateaandcoffee how many dpo ru?
@StartLeo hello! I don’t have any words of wisdom I’m a newbie, test again tomo think it’s still early?x

teateaandcoffee · 16/03/2021 19:14

I think I'm 8DPO, that's the day after my static smiley started. Not entirely sure though, it could have been later as I started getting ovulation pains a few days after that 🙈 complete guessing game haha
