I'm 4dpo. Have had cramping/twinges low down on left side.

AF due on 27th. This TWW always kills me.

Who else is waiting?

Hi Sunny

I am struggling through TWW too. AF due on 23rd. Did test today and had BFN. 😞

Feeling like a crazy person today, running around, cleaning out cupboards and then complete exhaustion this afternoon.

Had mild twinges/ pains/ tugging lower right side onTuesday and wed (6/7DPO)

How have you been?

sunnyside257 · 19/09/2021 21:30

@MumOf2Boys1315 hey, aw that's a shame about the bfn. It's still early though! Have you had any symptoms?

I've been okay apart form the cramping in my lower stomach. I'm only 4 DPO so it's probably not pregnancy related.

Not looking forward to work tomorrow. So tired and just want to hibernate lol

Aww I know the feeling, feeling really tired too.

I am noticing symptoms like taste being off, burpy, tired, moody, breasts are a bit tender.
I had Marina Coil for over 5 years and it was only removed at the start of July so it’s hard to determine whether the symptoms are normal menstrual symptoms or in-fact linked to early pregnancy 🤦‍♀️🤣

Have you been ttc for long Sunny? I hope this is your lucky month 🥰

sunnyside257 · 20/09/2021 07:48

Aw okay, hopefully it's pregnancy related for you! It is so hard to tell the difference. It's annoying how similar pms and pregnancy symptoms are.

I've been ttc for about 8months now Confused

Hello

Hope you don't mind me joining 😊 my address is due 24th. This is 4th month trying to conceive as well. Not sure exact date of ov but says around the 10th but can't always rely on this. I had sharp stabbing pains in my left ovary yesterday evening felt like ovulation pain, which I though this is a bit odd as I can't be ovulating now. Haven't really had any other signs though. X

rita83 · 20/09/2021 11:22

My af sorry not address 🤣🤣

sunnyside257 · 20/09/2021 12:11

Hi @rita83 - that's exactly what I had yesterday. I had cramping pains on the left side at my overlies. I use clear blue advanced ovulation kits. I had 3 flashing smileys on the lead up to my static smiley meaning I ovulated on the 15th.

I actually took another test yesterday because I had the stabbing pains that were like ovulation but the test came back negative so it couldn't have been that.

Hoping this is a good sign for us both!

So we have had the same pain then. Was yours like a shooting pain sharp and quick. Mine started around half 6 last night had it on and off for about an hour and said to my husband it's like the pain I get when I ovulate. Apps say my ovulation day was the 10th but we did the deed on the 5th, 7th, 9th, 10th and 12th. I had the ewcm on the 9th 10th and 11th I think. I know I had it for about three days which I never had last month either. Thing is I have no other symptoms that's what's telling me I am out. When is ur af due again? X

sunnyside257 · 20/09/2021 12:32

Yeah mine was a dull shooting pain. Maybe 5 - 10 seconds between them. In the same place. Not painful but definitely aware of the feeling.

My AF is due on the 27th. So I've still got a bit to go! Have you took a test yet?

OP posts:
rita83 · 20/09/2021 12:44

Mine was sharp pain on and off coming and going one of them made me jump!! Your at is three days after mines due. Mines Friday this week. No I haven't tested cos I know what it will say 😞the thing is as well the progesterone hormone creates the pregnancy symptoms as well. Sore boobs tiredness pains in the uterus etc so it's so hard to actually tell. X

sunnyside257 · 20/09/2021 12:51

Yeah I know what you mean. I usually test stupidly early but this cycle I've been good and I'm leaving it until the day AF unless it shows up early.

I've read loads of posts of woman who have had this left ovary pain and they went on to get their BFP. Trying not to get my hopes up but it does sound promising for us!

Sending baby dust! I really hope this is our month.

Awww and to you as well!! Hate waiting it's so frustrating isn't it! I feel pregnant in December last year but it was a chemical. I had a positive pregnancy test but had a normal period and then no bleeding for a couple of days and so I tested and it was positive but after a week I did another test and the lines were getting weaker and weaker. I knew something was wrong. Just hope I can still conceive. I went back in the pill February this year and stopped it in June and have been trying since June x

MumOf2Boys1315 · 21/09/2021 06:30

Morning 👋 how are you all feeling? I should be testing tomorrow ( day before expected AF) can’t explain how I am feeling!

I really hope the aches you had are positive and you both go on to get BFP 🥰 I’m getting really impatient now, been on a bit of a downer since testing on Sunday and just keeping everything 🤞

@rita83 that must have been awful for you in December 😩 keeping fingers crossed for you

@sunnyside257 8 months is not too long, most of my friend s were a year or over! I hope this is your month 🥰

rita83 · 21/09/2021 06:33

Hey ya

Good morning! Well I am still getting period type pain so I'm wondering now if af is gonna show this week now 😞 I'm not gonna test until after Friday if she doesn't show!! I hate seeing the stark white bfn window!! How are you feeling today

Xx

sunnyside257 · 21/09/2021 06:45

Morning

Aw @rita83 that's awful 😞 sorry you had to go through that. I think with a chemical the silver lining to take from it all is that you can conceive and your fertile. It's still not a nice thing to go through though.

@MumOf2Boys1315 good luck testing tomorrow! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm only 6 DPO. Had the stabbing pain in the ovary again yesterday. Had a couple of waves of nausea and a sore lower back on the left side (I do work in an office though so that one may be down to bad posture lol)

rita83 · 21/09/2021 08:59

Yes sunny side a chemical I have never had before and conceived with my girls ok as well. Makes me think it may have been a boy. I still have mild period pain as well atm!!! Don't know what to make of it 11dpo today as well going off if I ovulated in the 10th but I may have ovulated later than that and only be 9dpo but not sure tbh!

sunnyside257 · 21/09/2021 11:04

@rita83 only 4 days until your AF is due. Are you going to test the day of or wait a bit longer?

OP posts:
rita83 · 21/09/2021 11:11

I am gonna see if it turns up probably as I know if I test it will be a bfn 😞

MumOf2Boys1315 · 21/09/2021 18:43

It’s so hard isn’t it 😩 it’s hard to know if the symptoms are there or if our body is messing with our head.

I felt nausea this morning and been yawning all day, sniffly nose, I must say I do feel different than I did before last af but I had coil for 5 years so it’s hard to tell how I should feel before AF 🤦‍♀️

sunnyside257 · 21/09/2021 22:16

I'm 6dpo. Still have the cramping. I've had A LOT of gas today. Like, more farts than I've ever had in my life GrinBlush

Do you ovulate later in the cycle? My AF is/was due on the 28th, am 9 DPO and got a clear positive this morning surprisingly. That said, I had a chemical 3 weeks ago so I have to wait and see if this one sticks!

rita83 · 22/09/2021 10:48

@Rtmhwales hello did you have any aching at all before you got your bfp? I have been getting aching low down but it keeps coming and going it started Monday afternoon and I have it today but it's not as bad xx

sunnyside257 · 22/09/2021 12:52

@Rtmhwales - Yeah I usually ovulate round about cycle day 20 most months. Congratulations on your positive!

rita83 · 22/09/2021 20:50

Hya ladies

Well I tested today, due to the fact I have been getting pains and aching on and off especially in my lower back. Felt like period was gonna show Friday but I couldn't believe my eyes!! I have a second pink line come up on a frer!! I am 12dpo roughly and I am absolutely in shock at the moment as I didn't expect this at all. It can be done ladies and this time I led down after we dtd every single time for at least 20 mins each time so I don't know if this played a part! I am wishing you all the luck and please keep me posted xx

sunnyside257 · 23/09/2021 08:09

@rita83 - oh my goodness!! Congratulations 🥳 so happy for you. Xx
