Hey all! Today is ovulation day, the 2WW is about to begin. Anyone else on the same cycle? Let's agonise over possible symptoms together!

@Flossyvossy I am also 6DPO. Feeling nothing at all but don't expect to until closer to AF.

How's everyone else feeling? Anyone decided to test yet? 🌟

Hiya popping on to say hello. I will go back and read the full thread in a minute. I'm now 7dpo I think (though that's just based on an app I didn't ovulation test so could be a bit out). I have two lovely little boys 4 and 2 years. It's our second cycle TTC, so would be really lucky if it's happened this soon. My boys took 6 months each. Good luck to everyone xx

Veronika13 · 31/03/2021 09:37

4 dpo. Not feeling anything and still feeling strongly not to test.
I keep thinking if I only test when AF is due and I'm not pregnant - then it's only 14 days until ovulation day 😀
If I test now and it's negative - I've a long way until ovulation

Flossyvossy · 31/03/2021 09:47

@HopingForBabyM2021 I changed username (was 158ff). Hopeful to hear symptoms might not start yet. I also think I messed up ovulation day so who knows what dpo I'm actually on. Temping to test but don't want to waste it as I only have one left 😬😬
@Veronika13 that sounds like a good plan!

Sparklestars86 · 31/03/2021 09:54

@Flossyvossy I am about the same as you- (either 6 or 7DPO). The only thing I've had is really bad foot cramps during the night- but I don't think that's actually even a sign?!
@veronika13 I love that logic- I was going to wait the full two weeks anyway but you've just added an extra reason to persuade myself if/when I get tempted! I'm hoping Easter weekend will be a nice distraction and get me towards when some signs might actually start to show and mean something..!
Fingers crossed for everyone. Xx

@Flossyvossy oh hey! My cycle buddy! Yeah I'm not feeling anything at all ☹️ keep wishing my boobs were aching or something but they're not 😂 definitely going to cave and start testing tomorrow, even though it's soooo early and very unlikely to show a pink line... But that won't stop me haha

I'm 7 dpo and not feeling anything. Slight cramping, slight sore boobs but nothing out of the ordinary. Just hoping af stays away. I have dreamt every night that I've had a positive test 🤞🤞

LondonladyTTC · 31/03/2021 10:21

I am 8dpo today and although my boobs were killing a few days ago, they seem to have calmed down now which is making me a bit negative- I know symptoms are not the same for everyone though! I am going to test on Friday at 10dpo with a cheap test just because that will hopefully kill the urge (and I wouldn't necessarily expect it to be positive anyway so won't be too disappointed) and then test on Sunday with an FRER at 12 dpo. Hoping for some Easter luck! 🐣

bitheby · 31/03/2021 10:45

6dpo today and feeling nauseous but that could be for any reason. It's still far too early to feel anything I'm sure. Just had a day 21 progesterone blood test. Hoping for a really strong result or else I might as well give up as I didn't ovulate.

Poppypop87 · 31/03/2021 10:54

I'm 9dpo today and apart from some really slight cramping yesterday and this morning, I feel normal. Going to try and wait until Saturday to test

hullabaloo19 · 31/03/2021 11:26

11dpo today for me. Had a bit of cramping and backache last night (but had been on a really long walk so might have been because of that). Woke with acid reflux this morning and feel quite tired and hungry today. Breasts still a bit tender but not really sore. Planning to buy a first response to use tomorrow with fmu, though I'm afraid to see another negative so might try and hold off for a bit if I can resist the temptation to test. It's so frustrating that so many early pregnancy symptoms are also normal pms symptoms!!

Newbie202012 · 31/03/2021 15:49

BrodieKD · 31/03/2021 16:12

@Newbie202012 hello. I am doing a chart for the first month but I have no idea what would be a good chart. This is mine but no idea if it's good or not. I'm 7dpo.

1 DPO tomorrow! Any buddies?
Newbie202012 · 31/03/2021 16:35

@BrodieKD hi I'm new to charting too this is my 4th cycle of charting the first month I got my bfp ( which was a chemical pregnancy )second month my temps we all over the place last month bfn and this month. So I havnt got much to go off fertility friend app says to look at your own unique pattern what takes a few months so I just go by my bfp chart sorry I cant help I do recommend downloading fertility friend app it really good hope you get your bfp

Newbie202012 · 31/03/2021 16:36

@BrodieKD this was my bfp chart

1 DPO tomorrow! Any buddies?
Louise1051 · 31/03/2021 17:27

I’m either 7 or 8 dpo (depends what app I read) my boobs are aching but I’ve experienced that the last few cycles and no baby. I also got up for the toilet three times during the night but all of that could be explained by PMS so not getting hopes up.

I’m going to try and resist the urge to test until 12 dpo - I’ve tested early before but when it’s negative I feel like hope doesn’t quite get extinguished because it’s early ... it’s like you go through that suspense a few days later with another test.

Louise1051 · 31/03/2021 17:32

@BrodieKD - I’ve been charting a while now and that looks about right to me. Just before you ovulate you see a slight dip in temperature then a sustained rise. Your temperature will stay elevated if you are pregnant and if it starts to drop over a day or two then it’s usually a sign of AF Confused ...don’t know if that helps any.

Do you wear a Fitbit or any kind of device that monitors your heart rate? I notice that before I ovulate my heart rate rises and that combined with temps usually gives me a good idea when my fertile period is xxx

luce2202 · 31/03/2021 18:50

Hi, can I join please?

I posted in another thread but had no response!☹️
I'm ttc #3, cycle 4, cd22 and about 6/7DPO. This month was my first month using OPK, I used clear blue. I had a static smiley on 24th so I think I ovulated on 25th. I have regular, 28 day cycles.
I don't know if I dtd enough because I had a rotten cold, but I dtd on 20th, 24th and 26th.
I also suffered a chemical pregnancy last month. I'm not all that well educated in actively trying, I just know to track my ovulation and dtd in my fertile window, I don't track BBT.

Since yesterday I've had sore boobs, yellow snot like CM (no infection - confirmed by swabs), I have the most horrendous wave of nausea, and at 4/5DPO I felt a pinching/tugging feeling in my left ovary and also have mild, dull cramping. I know I'm probably just symptom spotting now but desperate for that BFP that sticks🤞🏻🤞🏻
Good luck to all you ladies waiting on BFP this cycle Xx

ploopypleepy · 31/03/2021 19:10

Hey @luce2202 I'm 9dpo and had similar symptoms to you so far! Really hungry and tired and has a bad head all day.... probably nothing but we can hope 😂 x

luce2202 · 31/03/2021 19:15

@ploopypleepy I usually do suffer from PMS quite badly, but again it's 3-4 days before AF I get it, not an entire week prior🤢
When will you be testing? X

Louise1051 · 31/03/2021 19:16

Hello luce2202!

So sorry to hear about your chemical pregnancy - it makes your anxiety levels 100 times worse.

Can I ask, are the symptoms typical for you at that time of the month? I’m always second guessing myself, wondering if my mind is playing tricks on me xxx

ploopypleepy · 31/03/2021 19:20

@luce2202 yeah me too.... not sure this month about any of my symptoms, feel like I'm making half of them up 😂 I'll test the day or a missed period if that happens. How about you x

Violet1988 · 31/03/2021 19:24

@luce2202 I'm also trying for number 3. What do you have already. I have two little boys. Also had an early loss the cycle before I conceived my second, fingers crossed for you too x

luce2202 · 31/03/2021 19:31

@Louise1051 No they're not really typical for this month, but I'm not sure if it's psychological because I'm hoping to be pregnant!

@ploopypleepy Yes I feel the same!! I want to wait until AF but I don't know if I can😂 probably start testing at around 10-11DPO

@Violet1988 I have a boy and a girl, my son being the eldest. Hopefully it's our month xxx

HopingForBabyM2021 · 31/03/2021 19:51

@luce2202 hi luce! Sounds like you did more than enough around your ovulation date, so fingers crossed! I too have a lot of very thick CM right now, trying not to read too much into but, but have spent a long time googling 'CM and implantation' ,😂

Ladies, you won't be surprised to hear that I have the willpower of a slug (is that a thing?) and held out to 6DPO before I caved and tested. Of course it was negative, it's 6DPO for crying out loud. But did I let that stop me? No of course not 😂 I will without a doubt be testing every morning until AF rears her ugly head. Stupid I know, but necessary for my sanity!
