hi all

Anyone else TTC and is 5/6dpo!
Won't test yet as too early but I ovulated around cd16 and probably have my AF due any time cd27.

I know they say to test from when your af is due, but I will probably test in a couple of days 😂 xxx

@Starry1990 Yep that's exactly what my partner says too. Usually I overthink more than I am currently but I know stressing won't help so I'm focusing on work etc. My cycle is usually around 31 days. AF is due around 31st Jan/1st Feb. What about yours?

overthinkersanonnymus · 22/01/2025 15:39

Hey @AmberARK im 5/6 dpo too and having symptoms I don't normally have.

I've had what feels like sharp poking behind my nips, not at the same time. Left this morning, right this afternoon.

I also feel quite sickly, which I never ever feel. A bit like an acidic type of nausea.

Totally clutching at straws, but that's why I'm here, for some reality slaps 😂

AmberARK · 22/01/2025 16:00

Hey @overthinkersanonnymus

I do keep thinking am I thinking these symptoms in to existence haha!!

I haven't had a nausea but on Sunday evening I was completely off food and it was pizza from my favourite restaurant!

This tingling/pulling sensation on my left side pelvic area is so strange - I've never had anything like that before! and I have it on and off throughout the day. I'm also bloated a little lower down than usual.

Ugh I wish I could get a definitive test result already. I'm thinking of testing from Sunday or Monday maybe?!

Starry1990 · 22/01/2025 17:37

I'm trying! Mines about 28 days (on average) so expecting something either way in around 3/4 days as my luteal phase is on the shorter side.

Tomorrow I'm around 8dpo but I know could still be too early!

I shouldn't have taken a test today as only 7/8dpo and unlikely to see a bfp even if it was true yet 🙄

@Starry1990 don't beat yourself up. I've just taken a test at 5dpo 😂😂

Wednesdayonline · 23/01/2025 13:30

Woke up this morning with (tmi) a lot of watery cm, so the symptom spotting has started 😂 cervix is also really high. I don't usually check though so have no idea if this is normal! Keep arguing with myself in my head over whether I should buy a pack of cheap tests or not 😂

I have no clue!! First month of symptoms spotting for me.

I generally have quite Alot of cm 😂.

I took a test today (8dpo), bfn. Expected but was hopeful. It's only my first month of TTC, so am hopeful but realise it may not happen for a while yet.
Let's see what happens for us both

I also tested today 😂 I got my smiley face on CB ov test on the 16th, which probably means I ovulated 17th or 18th? So I'm ridiculously early to be testing really. But I decided I'd do it every 2nd day as I realise want to do it and we have to do what makes us happy 😀

2petrabbits · 24/01/2025 17:15

I’m 10dpo today and wishing I could fast forward 5 days… but I’ll just enjoy the weekend while I can!

I keep thinking I’ve got symptoms but I think it’s just ‘being alive’ kind of symptoms 😂

how far can you read into CM? Mine seems to still be on the egg white side of things? But maybe a bit less than I get at some points. No idea really.

Wednesdayonline · 24/01/2025 18:09

I noticed egg white cm today too! I immediately googled though and apparently some people just get that every month, caused by estrogen rising.

Despite my insistence I would not be testing this month I am going to test tomorrow on 9dpo and 11dpo so I can prepare myself ahead of AF arrival. I don't even have any early detection tests just standard CB but I can't help myself 😂

Summerrose24 · 25/01/2025 07:32

I've got a very very faint line on a test.. I'm just going to test every 2nd day and see how it goes. I'm aware it could be an evap line, Im only 9DPO (or 9 days since LH surge so 8 DPO?). I am questioning whether it would have been better to wait until 14 DPO and see a proper line, but for me after 3 losses that doesn't change too much for me. So for now I'm happy to have a slight indication that there may be a little bean growing in there and to start sending good wishes their way 🙏 Hope you're all doing ok.

houserenohelp · 25/01/2025 09:47

I'm currently 6DPO having cramps since yesterday and moody and eating choc. Not sure if this means I am out or not never been pregnant before.
First time this month trying pre-seed.
Been trying for a while so have a GP appointment next month if no success as over 35.

Littleonek · 25/01/2025 18:45

I'm 8 days po. I've got huge boobs, stabbing nipple pain, cramps in my private area. Feel super drained, and my whole body aches.

I have pcos which can cause these symptoms due to too much estrogen. So I'm seeing if I get a period this week.

It's been 6 years since I had a normal period as I've been on the pill for my pcos. I've got two children but both times I had different symptoms before I tested.

This is my first month of trying so we will see what happens. The waiting to test is really long. Hurry up next week.

Sending positivity to you all!

2petrabbits · 26/01/2025 08:52

12 dpi now and trying to wait patiently for 2 more days…

overthinkersanonnymus · 26/01/2025 11:08

BFN for me today at 9dpo. I actually had a cry! I've never done that before, I usually just feel pissed off.

9dpo is really early. I’m sorry it was distressing for you. Still wishing you good luck!

Wednesdayonline · 26/01/2025 15:10

Tomorrow is 11dpo. Unsurprisingly got negative on a standard test at 9dpo so going to use FR early tomorrow. If negative I'll just wait for AF and move on in my head to next month. The days are slow waiting for ovulation when it happens on cd19/20!!!

overthinkersanonnymus · 28/01/2025 15:48

BFN for me at 11dpo.

I'm to cycle number 8364629
