Hi all

So my period is due Saturday.

Feeling exhausted today, back is killing me (has been for a few days) and I've just had some yellow discharge. Not sure if this is all period related or very early pregnancy?? Literally looking at ever single symptoms!! I definitely remember having yellow discharge in my last pregnancy and was told it was normal. But I don't know if this discharge is normal before my period ? Literally can't remember!! Going to hold of testing anymore as I don't want to get hopes up

it sounds very positive, especially the discharge i dont think that usually happens before a period? When is your af due again?
Km12345 · 17/08/2021 11:02

My AF should be due Saturday! @Flowerpot564
I did a first response yesterday which was negative though :/

Flowerpot564 · 17/08/2021 11:07

@Km12345 theres still hope! I know of people who havent got BFP till a day before and even days after. Fingers crossed🤞🏻

Km12345 · 17/08/2021 12:02

I'm dying to go and get another test !! But I know I need to hold of. The more I think about it the more I feel it's less likely to happen:(

Flowerpot564 · 17/08/2021 13:01

@Km12345 aww try hold off till Thursday/Friday! I know its hard but try keep yourself busy, its so easy to get back into thinking about it, it just show how much you want something. Its normal we are all doing it😩

8DPO today... a wide range of emotions, DH lost his best friend unexpectedly yesterday and I was feeling sick all day and was sick in the evening and couldn't resist this morning. It's so faint and I just don't know how to feel at the moment!

Hello I'm
Jumping on board. I'm 10DPO and currently holding out on testing till next week. AF due on Sunday and want to see if the old girl rocks up (fingers crossed she has to self isolate at home 😂)

CameraCoffeeCrochet · 17/08/2021 16:40

Ooh @lovo31 can definitely see a faint line, stay calm and see how it goes I guess! @andpeggy1 keeping everything crossed for you, I know how it feels!!

traveltheworld1986 · 17/08/2021 20:22

With my daughter I saw a BFP on the cheap amazon stick tests before it appeared on the first response test! I find clear blue much better! Wishing everyone luck, I still have a week or so until my period is due!

Flowerpot564 · 17/08/2021 23:48

i see a faint line aswell!! fingers crossed🤞🏻 @lovo31. Hey @andpeggy1 sending you good luck, hopefully you get good news soon😘

WJK00 · 18/08/2021 08:21

Hi ladies!!

Just want your thoughts Smile
I had ewcm from Sunday to Sunday just gone. Positive OPK on Saturday and low one back on Monday.

I took another this morning and seems to be higher again?! Well I am not sure. Usually my OPKs are super faint until I get my surge and then stay faint until AF.

Any ideas? Is this leading to a peak?! So confusing.

Flowerpot564 · 18/08/2021 10:01

hey there! @WJK00 Its not as dark as the other line but if normally youre used to it being much darker then just keep actively checking. Mine always stays around that colour even after the peak and sometimes its so confusing, but if it doesnt go darker then that then I just think its a little higher than usual. Hope you get positive news soon 😘

Heartbrokenmama · 18/08/2021 10:31

Hi ladies, hoping I can hop on this thread as well. 6dpo today and this 2ww is killing me. This is our second cycle trying, after a devastating full term loss in April. We lost our baby girl at 40 weeks literally out of the blue after an otherwise perfect pregnancy. I’m so sad we have to go through all this all over again, I’m so tired and just want to hold my baby in my arms! Trying not to drive myself crazy with symptom spotting like I did last month, and trying so hard not to test too early because it was so devastating every time I didn’t get a second line last month and I wasted sooooo many tests. But I will probably cave and test in the next couple of days. What have you all been doing to pass the time in this awful wait? Every day feels like a week.

CameraCoffeeCrochet · 18/08/2021 11:03

Hiya, didn't want to read and run so sending big hugs, I can't imagine how it felt, but you are very strong to have got this far, lots of good babydust vibes to you this time. I'm doing alot of crocheting, I learnt during lockdown and it keeps my mind from wandering if I'm counting stitches or concentrating on a pattern so maybe there's something brain intensive you could do to distract you. Apart from that I'm in the same boat as you, just wishing the time would fly. I don't know how I'm going to cope if I actually get a BFP this time, I'm just going to be so worried about another loss 😔

Km12345 · 18/08/2021 11:21

Still waiting to get a positive test (last one I did was clear blue yesterday, mid day ) i said I wouldn't do any more tests but I xposlmt help it.

I've had more yellow discharge since yesterday, very tired, lower belly aches and back ache which come and go. Feeling a bit nauseas but nothing major

Stating to feel like its probably all PMS :( 3 days till AF due.

Flowerpot564 · 18/08/2021 12:07

@Heartbrokenmama im so sorry for your loss😞 I hope youre okay and recovering💕 Im 5 dpo and been trying all sorts, from reading books to going for walks. Im currently working so that helps, but when im home it drags and I just try find stuff to keep me busy, even if its cleaning. I really hope you get positive news soon❤️

Flowerpot564 · 18/08/2021 12:09

@Km12345 dont lose hope! theres still some
time left, hate PMS symptoms its all so difficult. Try keep yourself occupied, I know its hard but just a few more days left🤞🏻

Heartbrokenmama · 18/08/2021 12:21

Thank you ladies. Hoping this forum will keep me a bit distracted for a few days as my anxiety is completely crippling right now. If nothing else we can keep each other company with all of our cryptic symptoms.
I have had such a weird cycle this month so all the uncertainty really isn’t helping my anxiety.

I usually have fairly regular cycles (27-30 days) with ovulation around cd13/14 but this month seems to be a much longer one. I think I may have ovulated around cd21 this cycle but I was testing with multiple different kits and they all said slightly different things 🤦🏻‍♀️ One of them (a CB dual advanced kit) started showing me a flashing smiley (high fertility) on cd9 which continued for 13 days (!!!) but never peaked. Around cd14 after 6-7 days of flashing smileys I started using another CB kit just in case something was wrong with the first one and it showed low for a few days, followed by a few days of high and finally peak on cd20. I tested again 3-4 days after this peak just to see what it would say and it said peak again 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ No idea what is going on with my body. However pretty sure I ovulated around cd21 as I did have lots of EWCM around cd19-23 so hoping it happened sometime in that window… CM did seem to continue for longer than I remember in previous cycles and on cd24 I had a panic that my body had been having multiple attempts to ovulate but the cm now seems to be drying up and becoming yellower and stickier. I might try to get some blood work done tomorrow at 7dpo to confirm I actually ovulated. GAH I feel like I’m losing my marbles. This experience has consumed all my strength and patience. Nothing like losing a baby and trying to conceive again to make you totally nuts.

WJK00 · 18/08/2021 12:51

@Flowerpot564 Thank you. I usually get my peak CD11/12 and I did so maybe just a bit higher this month after it!

I am all baby danced out so I was like aaaaah give me a break when I saw it this morning Grin. Maybe I'll do it tonight just incase Hmm

How are you all getting on? Where are you all in your cycle?!

I'm really trying to chill out this cycle. I've had two losses this year and it's been so hard having to go back to TTC again.

TinyShrew17 · 18/08/2021 13:20

I've started spotting this morning, so think AF is on her way!!

Nevermind. On to next month!

TTC after a loss is so heavy on the mind. 😔 I feel deflated and exhausted. But hopeful for next month. In fact I'll just take by the end of the year. More manageable goal I hope.

Sending love to you all and I hope you get your positives soon! 🥰
