Very unlikely as it's been 3 years of ttc but it's the first month on letrozole.

However I have bad indigestion and really sore boobs.

Only 6 dpo though.

@TrishyLou1111
it's so hard isn't it? Constantly over thinking every pain/cramp or feeling! I normal drink a lot of coffee but today I've been having peppermint tea to try and stop myself feeling nauseous!
i'm toying with the idea of buying more tests on the way home! someone stop me!!!

It really is isn't it!

I don't drink caffeine and have felt really nauseous. I just think I'm symptom spotting. I've always been a 28 day cycle until I had my daughter and its changed slightly.

It's the spotting for me, I thought surely not implantation this late and every blog I've read has been really negative!

I kind of want AF to arrive so I can be more prepared this cycle. Fresh start x

I couldn't even tell you how much jve spent on tests and this was just yesterday xx

OMG!!! that's insane! I don't feel so bad thinking about getting some more, even though I don't think there's much point testing till Friday!
I'm bang on 28 days so Saturday in D day for me 😶

Who am I even kidding, I'm going to test tonight aren't I? haha!

9DPO today and I am thirsty. Also had about umpteen wees today but that might be a natural consequence rather than an actual symptom 😅Took my need to POAS out on one of my many OPKs but no significant line there. Fertility Friend has AF due on Thursday. Fingers crossed I'll know for by the weekend because I've got plans to watch the rugby with friends and can thoroughly drown my sorrows if necessary!

Haha willpower is contagious. If I had any I'd virtually send it to you 😆

I've become ridiculously obsessed with testing. I'm due Thursday (my birthday) and I've told myself I'm not testing now til after AF DD but we shall see what later brings haha.

Have you had any symptoms? Spotting or cramps? It's so odd for me. I thought AF was arriving yesterday they were that strong.

How long are your cycles lovely?? X

Mauhea · 23/10/2023 13:05

Usually around 26 days. I tend to ovulate CD14 but it looked like it was CD13 this month according to OPKs. Not sure if that means AF will be due a day earlier or if I might get an extra day on my shortish luteal phase.

Gingerblueeyes · 23/10/2023 13:29

@TrishyLou1111
I promised myself i wouldn't test till at least Friday and then tested yesterday! If I get a BFP then it would have happened on my birthday!

I've got loads! woke up Saturday with an achy lower back, wasn't muscular though as I weight lift so know what that feels like! The achy back is still here too! About 5 or 6 DPO i felt a weird tugging pain that's not normal on y left lower side, that's gone now. Queasiness started this morning, still feel a little nauseous and even contemplated not having my lunch which is not like me!

Considered a coffee and decided against it, very not like me!!!!

narwhalsarereal · 23/10/2023 14:53

Well a BFN for me.

I caved and tested early, however, it could have been too early depending on my ovulation day, so I'm either 11dpo or 7dpo and due AF between Fri and mon.

I still think I'm out though. I only tested as I'm spotty & feeling sick which I never get before AF but I'm sure if they were symptoms then I'd get a positive result.

Oh well, more fun time for me & my partner instead....an excuse for lots of regular sex 😂

This is exactly like me. My husband says I’m like a drug addict looking for my next fix… the drug being pregnancy tests. I’m a pregnancy test FIEND. I was negative yesterday, will try again later today but AF due tomorrow and feel like it’s not our month!! We shall see xxx

I think being a crack addict would be cheaper then this 😆😆🙈

Fingers crossed for you. I said I wasn't going to test but.. I'm going to do one now lol.

How many dpo are you xxx

It's a dull ache isn't it.

I literally thought my AF was arriving yesterday the cramps and back ache were that prominent.

Those are promising signs though!! Inwas the same with both tea and coffee all of my pregnancies but my fourth was hell. I have hyperemisis, and I still can't drink anything caffeine based now!

Update me when you test haha.

I just don't know what to think lol. I'd rather just know now either way so we can start cycle three! Xx

Gingerblueeyes · 23/10/2023 19:20

@TrishyLou1111 tested when I got home, BFN but I’m only 9 dpo so wasn’t expecting anything else! Not left now!! Until I go and buy more!!

everything crossed for both of us!!! baby dust

I’m 11DPO… Tomorrow AF is due. I’m almost positive I’m out for this month as I just cried at something daft on the telly and I only ever cry the day before my period hahaha

I tested too.. BFN!

I think I'm out this month as im 12dpo! 😫

I've heard too many horror stories about late implantation and MC to hold any kind of hope.

It's so stressful. I never planned any of my others and it was a breeze. I never paid any attention to cycles ect and I never worried half as much as I am now!

Baby dust to you too keep me updated xxx

That's me pretty much my whole cycle 🙈😭

Yeah same here, I think I'm out this month too. Oh well, onto the next! Xx

Gingerblueeyes · 24/10/2023 08:42

How is everyone getting on this morning? Anyone test?
I've haven't got any left so trying to hold out to see if the red witch arrives on Saturday

Mauhea · 24/10/2023 09:24

10DPO today. Couldn't resist a little go on an OPK and it came up with a darker line than the other day but not positive. Boobs are a lot less painful than they were on the weekend but I'm kind of crampy and queasy instead. Might have something to do with the poptarts I had for breakfast mind....

hermionelodge · 24/10/2023 09:42

I've been so crampy and a bit of a gassy stomach but feels like period belly. Boobs still tender and still have the horrible metallic/bitter taste in my mouth! As I only tracked using apps this month which is not the most reliable, I have two different ovulation dates from them! So according to them, I'm either 8dpo or 11dpo 🤷‍♀️ think I'm just going to try hold off testing until Saturday, I only have 1 test and it's a blue dye and not an frer.

Ems1992 · 24/10/2023 10:17

I tested using a strange internet test I got (not the usual strip tests) and it was negative. I am 12DPO AF due today. No sign of her yet…
I am planning to buy a proper test after finishing work today.
How’s everyone else?

Gingerblueeyes · 24/10/2023 10:39

@Mauhea 10 DPO is still early, I've got no tests left so going to try and hang on till Saturday!

@hermionelodge metallic taste is supposed to be a positive sign isn't it??

@Ems1992 no sign is good, fingers crossed she stays away and you get a positive soon!

TrishyLou1111 · 24/10/2023 10:43

I tested this morning and a BFN.

No idea what's happening but kind of accepted that I'm out this month.

AF due today or Thursday. I'm either 28 or 30 day cycles. No sign just yet but pretty sire I'd have had something on a test by now.

Hope you're all okay.

How many days are you now? You're not out till the red witch appears!!!!

baby dust to you

hermionelodge · 24/10/2023 12:12

@Gingerblueeyes it is definitely a symptom, I had it when I was pregnant with my dd, but I've had this taste for a week now which doesn't seem right. Caved and took a test even though I knew it was pointless, as predicted a BFN. Definitely not testing again til Saturday now. That's me out of tests

I wasn't going to test till Saturday after BFN yesterday at 9 DPO, i've got an achy pain on the right hand side just below my belly button and want to test now!!! I have nothing to compare against though so i may just be inventing all these symptoms!
