New thread as the other one is about to go!! Defo forgotten a few peeps! Please add ladies!

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty really? I thought implantation cramps were ongoing?! The feeling has defo passed now don't have that AF feeling anymore and no pre AF spotting yet so that's all I can hold onto for now. I will be seriously shocked if I am as there have been zero symptoms other than those cramps yesterday but I will be equally pissed off if I'm not for letting myself have that 1% 🤣

[newtolineofduty]

@hoola23 TOTALLY! I literally had AF style cramps at 12 and 13dpo and NOTHING since!!!!!!!! Xxx

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty now I'm scared 🤣 I just looked back at last month and my normal pink cm started at 10dpo but in the afternoon so if that doesn't show this afternoon then i will be holding on to hope 🤣 the only thing that could factor that is my last cycle was 28 days where as this one is predicted for 26 days as I ovulated two days early. Could that change when spotting would start? I usually get it 10dpo or 3 days before AF

[newtolineofduty]

Hmm I'm not sure but the month I got preggo I ovulated two days early @hoola23 😂😂😂 x really hopeful for you!!!!

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty you're really escalating my hopes here🤣🤣🤣 I'm realistic though so what will be will be. I think I'd be more happy about not having to do the whole TTC thing more than being pregnant. How sad is that!

[newtolineofduty]

No that's EXACTLY how I felt @hoola23! My first thought when I saw the positive was 'thank FUCK for that!' 😂😂😂

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty 🤣🤣 I'm glad I'm not alone!! I'm going to try and not think about it now as I hate getting my hopes up for it to crash and burn! I've been pro active and have a dr appt in two days to start the testing etc so I won't feel too lost if this is another failed cycle!

[CShandy01]

@newtolineofduty @hoola23 honestly man I never ever thought that TTC would get to the point where I go "come on BFP so I don't have to try anymore!" That's so sad isn't it??!!

I think I'm 8dpo maybe?? Not sure. But same as you @hoola23 I've got twinges and I've had some pains down my right hand side (like last time but not as significant). Today I had horrific period style cramps and ran to the loo to see if AF was there, and there was nothing (way too early), but after the CP I'm going to be on edge 😩😩😩 xxx

[hoola23]

@CShandy01 it's so bloody sad right! I wonder when that fear of having sex goes after you get the baby?! Maybe it never does! At this rate, as soon as my first is here I'm going to have to start trying for number two if it follows this ordeal!

Mine weren't that strong, just that general periody feeling that is start soon but all that's gone now. I've now got a really sore throat which was an implantation sign last time but there's so much going around that it's likely just a coincidence I think. If it was summer I'd say it was a symptom but it's bloody freezing!!

[hoola23]

@Aims1991 how are you doing hun? Any more symptoms?!

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty still no pink cm for me which is unusual. Keeping everything crossed! 🤣

[newtolineofduty]

Eek @hoola23!!! When will you test? Xxx

[hoola23]

@newtolineofduty I kinda want to ride it out until AF is due which I think will be fri. IF what I felt yesterday was implantation I should prob give it a couple of days anyway and I prob won't trust the result if I did it now! Knowing my luck this is just all circumstantial!

[Aims1991]

@hoola23 yeah I'm ok. Got a few twinges but I get them with AF so think I'm out. I'm 8dpo and AF due any day now. How are you

[newtolineofduty]

Yes that's true actually! It would take at least a couple of days for the hcg to start developing after implantation!!!! I think there's such an advantage to testing on AF due date as there's just no ambiguity or squinting needed! X

[hoola23]

@Aims1991 don't give up hope just yet! When is AF due?

@newtolineofduty I'm gonna try my best and hold out until Thursday for testing but I'm feeling a lot more positive for some reason. I honestly think it's the sore throat thing. I was in the kitchen cooking a min ago and just had this overwhelming feeling I'm pregnant. Can't really explain it and hope this isn't my body just playing with my head!

[plantbasedlondoner]

@hoola23 I'm very hopeful for you hun, crossing everything for you this month. Try to hold out until Thursday!

I have been quiet on here as everything feels a bit boring at my end, I'm on CD 11 (I won't ovulate for a few days at least), trying to be healthy, exercise, DTD and get decent sleep ... well that's been the plan! Amazing how hard it is at this time of the year. Haven't had a positive on an OPK yet (using the CB ones) but am trying to test twice a day. Feels so expensive to use OPKs when you have slightly irregular periods!

[hoola23]

@plantbasedlondoner thank you lovely!
Yeah they're super expensive but it's always good to have an idea what's going on! X

[newtolineofduty]

Argh @hoola23 Thursday sounds like a good plan! X

[Aims1991]

@hoola23 due the next 2 days! Just don't have any hope this month

[hoola23]

@Aims1991 oh sorry hun, you never know though! Are you going to test or just wait it out x

[Aims1991]

@hoola23 just wait it out. What about you

[hoola23]

@Aims1991 gonna test on Thursday I think but only if I don't get spotting otherwise I'll be pissed off I wasted a test 🤣

[hoola23]

I couldn't wait any longer! Only 11dpo and this is only the first hurdle, second hurdle is to get to 5 weeks!

[GemB03]

@hoola23 omg omg omg!! CONGRATULATIONS!! That is so so so amazing. Over the moon for you!! xxx
