Symptom spotting so much I swear I can feel kicks 😂

[mrsplumfairy]

Hi all, anyone else in 2ww?

TTC month 5….. I am CD20 and maybe 10 dpo ….. I’ve had positive static smileys on clearblue tests at CD10 and CD19 (convinced myself this is another sign!!) so I have no idea what my cycle is doing!!

I have had on/off cramps since the first positive ovulation test. I am sure I feel nauseous today and I’m dreaming that I can feel kicks. TTC is driving me insane!!!!

Can anyone make head or tail of these symptoms - especially the 2 static smileys??

So funny I felt loads of baby kicks last cycle and also nausea, but my period came. I think it’s just wind moving about!
I think lh can spike again before period comes and also before pregnancy so it’s a waiting game unfortunately
good luck

Due on today or tomorrow…. Not holding out much hope as been trying for over 2 years 🙈 (have one 9 year old). Due to check tubes checked next cycle if AF arrives

Ahh I feel like it’s just wishful thinking! I probably get this every other month but you don’t notice it until the dreaded 2ww.

how long have you been TTC?

Do you test or wait for a missed period first?

have you had any other tests yet? Sending luck 🍀

Coming up 2 years now ☹️
I’m 40 though so expected to take a bit longer

37 next so feeling the same :(

@mrsplumfairyI was due on today or tomorrow so tomorrow if it hasn’t arrived by lunchtime il grab a test, I have been so irritable today though so feel like it’s coming! I’m 37 too, never thought it would take so long!

Ahhh iv had a positive test this morning, trying not to get ahead of myself!

Congrats @CharlotteRae thats definitely positive 🥳and gives me so much hope as I’m 2 years trying too and also have a 9 year old so it’s been 9 years since I’ve been pregnant I’m thinking my body is out of practice!

Woooohooooo congratulations!!!!

what were your symptoms this month? I’m a few days behind you !! X

@2025babyfeveroh definitely don’t give up, I would say this month we really DTD more than usual, solidly most days or every other for a 2 week period. It was exhausting but we wanted to give it a real go and my partner keeps saying he didn’t think we were doing our part! Also felt like iv had a really active month too… but who knows? Super early days but going to try and stay positive x

How are you getting on @CharlotteRae

@mrsplumfairyhello, so far so good, wasn’t going to bother with a digital but caved and brought one today to do first thing tomorrow. I should be on the cusp of it saying 2-3 or 3+ so we will see! How about you? X

Oh amazing look at those dark lines!!! Huge congratulations to you!

I am due AF this week….sending myself crazy and can’t tell you how many dpo because according to clearblue I had 2 static smileys so it could be 14 or it could be 6 🤪

Are you able to share any of your journey? I think mine will also take a while - did you try supplements, vitamins, bbt etc? Desperate to try anything to hurry it along but I’m lost in a minefield of this vitamin, that vitamin, iron, zinc, COQ10, cough medicine to produce EWCM haha I don’t know where to start!!

@mrsplumfairy
im taking agnus cactus, pregnacare, raspberry leaf, b6, coQ10
once im finished these packets im just going simplify it to
folic acid
coq10
b6 and stick with that from now on. The pregnacare are making me feel nauseous (it’s a common side effect)
I don’t feel like agnus cactus is doing anything for me anymore.
the raspberry leaf is meant to help with ewcm but it’s done nothing for me over the past few cycles

@mrsplumfairy of course, so we’ve been trying over 2 years however in hindsight I was studying for my degree for the most part of that and juggling that/full time work/being a mum/partner/run a house so I just don’t think I was in the right head space and in a state of permanent stress. We had a positive last July but that ended pretty quickly and I had spotting throughout. I’m vegetarian and have been taking together health pregnancy supplements as well as their omega 3 (they aren’t the cheapest but the best quality and easy for body to absorb) for the last couple of months religiously, before that I would dip in and out. I also had a really active month, more so than normal so I really think exercise has played a part for me. I have pcos so since October I have been on a low dose of metformin, my periods were never too irregular usually between 28 and 35 days, so only taking 500mg.

other than that we upped our game this month and had sex way more, about 8 times over the 2 week ovulation window (I also was sad and raised my legs afterwards 😅) hope that helps! Xx
