Hello!

TTC #2, 36 yo. I should be dpo 1 today, I could feel ovulation yesterday evening, had peak opk yesterday morning.

I will try to test only on day when AF due, so next Sunday, as I've had 2 chemicals so unfortunately not expecting magic.

Wow this thread has really kicked off! So reassuring to see I'm not alone with the symptom-of-the-hour! Had quite a lot of mild cramps the last couple of days. Just can't stop googling.

Does anyone else use the Flo app? I did a week trial and then they extended it for 3 months when i went to cancel, so I have the premium version for free for a while. Any thoughts? All the info etc it gives is not helping me avoid obsessing, tbh! Seems useful for tracking though.

I'm 9dpo I think, staying strong as have no tests in the house, just going to try to keep it that way until Saturday and test before I go to meet friends so I hopefully know either way for drinking 🤣

Hope everyone has a good, distraction-filled day!

MrsP20202 · 11/07/2023 08:21

@Doodlestar hi hun yes I use the flo app it’s quite accurate for me especially bang on for when my period is ment to be :) iv been using it for 4 years, with my daughter it didn’t get ovulation right as I seemed to ovulate really really early with her and with my son I wasn’t trying so not too sure if ovulation was correct. But apart from that I would deffo say it’s a good app!

pinkandredflowers · 11/07/2023 08:29

LOL @Tes004 hahaha. I can see a line on the bottom one for sure but we are all still to early to know for sure.

8dpo for me and BFN. tried so hard to delude myself into finding a line but even that didn't work today. Remember when we all talked about waiting until 10/11 DPO 🤣🤣

Luckily work is going to be mental today and tomorrow so hopefully I won't find much time to dwell until Thursday which will be 10dpo!

Very excited to start seeing some BFPs on here over the e next few days 🤞

Scarletthoping · 11/07/2023 08:48

@missmae - I had the same thought about groping my boobs too much and that’s why they are hurting 🤣🤣🤣

BlossomTree123 · 11/07/2023 08:54

A lot to catch up on this morning!! love it!!

it’s so funny how obsessed we all are with our symptoms! They definitely sound positive!!

im 7DPO I think today, so a few days to go before I should test, although I keep wanting to. Going to do a opk this evening to see if it’s still high fertility which is bonkers if it is!

I use flo, and have loved it, always seemed pretty accurate for me.

My period is due 9 days so I’m guessing I can do early tests from 4 days time??

Going to try and keep busy today to avoid thinking about it haha!

Maybebaby12345 · 11/07/2023 09:41

Good morning ladies, so glad on not alone in symptom spotting!!!! I'm 10dpo today and not testing because I don't want to see anymore bfns. I have some bloating and back pain but it just feels like AF is coming so I'm sure I'm out this month 😪 AF isn't due until Sunday tho so there's still some hope she wont arrive.
I stupidly used all the tests I had, testing from 6dpo and now I have to stop myself from getting more. I've never had a bfp before AF is due so I don't know why I put myself through this every month. Ttc turns me into a mad woman!!!

MrsP20202 · 11/07/2023 09:49

Update just took a test, I think these Tesco tests I bought are faulty -.- the test line has no colour! -.- what a bad bunch of tests! That’s two now that have come up in the timeframe but with no bloody colour….it’s like an instant evap line 😂

@Maybebaby12345 im due on the same day as you! Hopefully af doesn’t show for us Sunday! But I feel the same as you I’m not very positive for some reason this will be the month for me I don’t know why just have a bad feeling but yet I’m here testing like a crazy lady just hoping ! Been very sick since last night I don’t know I’m guessing I’ll find out Sunday 🤦🏻‍♀️ Fingers crossed we don’t get af 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Dpo 1, tww keep sane
missmae · 11/07/2023 10:49

Morning ladies! 8dpo, of course a bfn but had to try 😂. I was also up at 5am, even tho I slept at 1am ish. I don’t know why this keeps happening!

@Scarletthoping i think I actually made it sore from groping them yesterday as I’m not feeling much pain now. But they deffo feel a tad fuller 😂I think I’ll stop groping them now lol!

Doodlestar · 11/07/2023 10:58

I've had some spotting this morning (just when wiping after a pee, sorry TMI). 9dpo I think.

Do you all tell your partner about symptoms and the crazy analysing? I haven't much as my husband is very much of the mindset that it will likely take a while to happen, which I agree is correct, and I guess I feel a bit silly. More like I don't want him to think I'm getting carried away! I think his sensible approach is helping me resist early testing though!!

missmae · 11/07/2023 11:14

@Doodlestar hopefully that’s implantation🤞🏼🤞🏼
nah I don’t, hence why I’m on here 24/7 as I need to talk about my symptoms 🤣 they definitely would think we are crazy. Especially every month they’d be like “not again” 💀😂

HelloMoon87 · 11/07/2023 11:18

@Doodlestar I do tell my partner some symptoms but he says don't get your hopes too up, as we were both badly burnt by the chemicals. But definitely not all symptoms because that would take few hours a day haha

BlossomTree123 · 11/07/2023 11:24

No I don’t say a word, I sound crazy ahaha but you all understand!!

@MrsP20202 thay looks like a faint line?

pm24 · 11/07/2023 11:30

Similar to @missmae @HelloMoon87 I don't tell my partner everything, only if I'm cramping bad or my boobs feel sore to touch then I will say something. My husband is pretty level headed (unlike me😂) so will always say just wait until missed AF and don't get carried away! I think this is why forums such as this really helps as I just think if I said half the stuff I say on here, he'd think I'm crazy! Lol

missmae · 11/07/2023 12:24

Also just noticed my cheapies are 20mIU fgs. They won’t detect nothing yet, silly me 😂.

bookworm100 · 11/07/2023 13:08

Well my latest symptom is extreme irritability...he's definitely aware of that!

longingtobe23 · 11/07/2023 13:15

I didn’t test yet today … I’m waiting on Amazon 10miU can’t get first response for love nor money these days 🥲

still got lower tummy twinging, nothing that important to report on… period due in 4 days anyone else due Saturday?

missmae · 11/07/2023 13:32

@bookworm100 omg don’t, since 5dpo I have been nothing but irritable, getting annoyed at any little thing and walking around with a b*tch face. 😂 I have no filter recently!!

@longingtobe23 yes i should’ve got 10miu I didn’t even realise mine were 20, so I’m for sure going to be getting negatives sigh. I was told by my sister yesterday first response has been taken off the shelves due to very dark false positives! Ladies have been getting a dark bfp with them and not actually being pregnant. So that may be why you cannot find them anywhere atm!

8dpo for me - still fatigued, sleeping is messed up, appetite is very up and down, slight bloat, boobs do feel more plump but not painful, and just very irritable. Light cramps every now and then!

bookworm100 · 11/07/2023 13:39

Haha @missmae me too!

Other new symptom is pins and needles in my legs and feet which is a bit weird!?

longingtobe23 · 11/07/2023 14:07

@missmae ooo that’s so sad but also interesting to know
I saw some on Amazon but earliest delivery was July 26th! They only then had the 45 second rapid tests not the super early, I am still conflicted and think I might test tomorrow morning… that’s when clear blue website said I can because of my ovulation peak 🥲

I am teaching 6-9 pm tonight so at least I won’t be able to test then, I’ll have to just jump in bed and sleep really quickly lol… wishing my life away over here 🥲

HelloMoon87 · 11/07/2023 14:30

@bookworm100 I had pins and needles this morning! But they disappeared by now after a nice lunchtime walk meh

HelloMoon87 · 11/07/2023 14:31

@longingtobe23 I have some 10miu easyhome tests from Amazon. They're good price and should be prime delivery?

Anyone based in London?

OP posts:
HelloMoon87 · 11/07/2023 14:34

My symptoms are gone again, but then I have had a fairly busy day so far, and what looks like a fairly busy evening as I've got work calls past 8 pm. Hope to come back on here at 9 and just spend some time chilling and symptom spotting with my lovely ladies 👍

Hope everyone is doing well? I'm looking out for implantation signs and nothing here, I'm definitely worried and anxious but no time alas

OP posts:
BlossomTree123 · 11/07/2023 14:35

I’m knew to knowing how early a pregnancy test can pick it up, what’s the 20 or 10miu, which are the best ones to have??

pm24 · 11/07/2023 14:57

@HelloMoon87 I am based in London x
