Hi! I'm 8DPO so a little further. I'm due on next Tues but have had bad cramps yesterday and today. I had similar last month and AF came 4 days early which is so unusual for me. Now I feel a bit down because I feel like AF is coming 😮‍💨
Will you test early or wait for af?

Oh I'll keep everything crossed for you. Every month is different it's so annoying. Hopefully it's a better sign for you this month. Have you had any other symptoms?

I'll hold off as long as I can, I'm due on my birthday so that would be a nice present but it's also only our first month so I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

Hey I’m in a similar boat , how many days is your cycle? I’m 34 , my last period started on the 4th , the app I use says I’m 4dpo , I’ve had thin clear CM but with streaks of white through it and slightly tacky only at the opening of my cervix though , my cervix was also open this morning and closed now , my periods are meant to be due on the 7th April also but had some cramping, back pain , pressure at my pelvis , and sore boobs , I took a test about a week ago forgot to go back within the time frame and had a faint line unsure if was a faint positive or evap line

Sounds promising, will you test again before the 7th?

I have been having lots of watery, sticky, stringy cm for the last two days. I have also been having cramps this evening too. Not sure if either of those are symptoms since it's still quiet soon after Ovulation

Hi,
can I ask do you track ovulation or does your app just predict it? If you took a test a week ago that would be before you ovulated ?

@ForGoldSloth I've had a couple of days of feeling sickly but I've had that before and nothing came of it! I'm going on holiday tomorrow for 12 days and I'm not going to take any tests so I won't have the temptation! I may regret this lol.
Have you had any symptoms yet?

That's great you have a distraction ☺️ I'm sure time will.fly on holidays! Have a great time.

I have had a full stomach pain/cramping the last couple of hours and have been seeing lots of clear watery/sticky CM the last two days. But it's very early.and I'm not sure they are actually symptoms 🙈

Can I join? I think I’m about 3DPO but waiting for my chart to confirm that! I’ve had a really short LP the last few months, so I’m hoping this month it has extended a little bit to actually make pregnancy even possible! Good luck to everyone 🤞🏻

5 DPO, anyone else?

Not until at least Tuesday, Wednesday if I can make myself wait 😂
I'm not sure if I should order some cheap ones off Amazon this month.

What about you?

My app just predicts it based on my cycle , I’ve now had creamy thick white CM , is this usual at this point?

Hi ladies, could I join. Currently 2DPO. Ovulation confirmed with LH testing. Iv had 3 miscarriages. 1st one was few years ago. It was MMC at 10 weeks. Other two more recently both started bleeding at 5 weeks. Had lots of tests and nothing major apart from PCOS. Booked in for hysteroscopy to assess the lining of the womb further and rule anything out. Sending you all baby dust ✨

I'm 8dpo today. Tested yesterday morning like a fool 🤦🏽‍♀️ been trying almost a year now but for some reason this month I'm back to insane early testing. Not done that in a while. I'm going to try to hold off for a few more days before using up another test... 😂

MerryBrickHelper · 29/03/2024 07:23

I’m going to try to wait until the 7th of April. I’ll be 13 DPO. When is everyone else testing?

Does anyone use NC for BBT? My temperature is remaining high and it did this in December when I was pregnant before…but equally hate having the hope as I’m so used to BFN!
