So ok, its actually 5 weeks till Christmas and I've just started my 2 week wait after early loss last cycle.
Of course I want a Christmas bean and of course I've started symptom spotting as usual.
We have been dtd every other day since cd5 so I think ive covered it.
Main symptoms of ovulation have been sore boobs, hunger and now starting with the bad gas!
I've had loads of niggles, shooting pain type things and both my nipples are still tender as I type.
What symptoms are you spotting ?
Im currently taking baby aspirin and B12, folic acid and vit D, 1000mg of vit C, omega 3,6, and drinking red fruit smoothies, eating raspberries and got raspberry jam for my brown seed toast in the mornings. For some reason I think red berries help conception?

I've also eaten a fair few mince pies, just sampling them you know xxx
 
Hey! Love this thread! I’ve only just came off the pill and I understand it could happen straight away or take months but we’ve been dtd as often as since and I’m hoping I’ll start to notice ovulation in he next 10 days eeek!! I would love to come home at xmas with little (although early) bubba!
 
Yes there's every chance it could happen straightaway jemm, keeping a positive mindset is imperative, everyone is different but I've been here a little while and seen lots get their BFPs in first 6 months but then after that as well. A couple catch in the first 3 months and it seems when people aren't really expecting it they conceive!
So welcome to the TTC madness rollercoaster!!
Im a big poas addict and test early and often, I just cant help myself. But if you are sensible you can abstain and wait for AF before chancing a test if she's late.
Fingers crossed for you that the Christmas excitement brings an extra present in the form of a BFP xxx

Tree trunks I feel like you and I are on a similar level when it comes to testing early and symptom spotting. I have around 10 hpt tests in my cupboard and I'm doing everything I can not to collect my fmu each day! I'm also crazy when it come to spotti symptoms.

Do you have any more symptoms? This is going to sound crazy but we have bottled water and I opened a new one last night, and it tastes so off I actually gagged at drinking it this morning. I texted hubby like can water go off? Does it taste weird to you? He's like uh don't think so, and no it tastes fine. I think I'm going crazy but how funny would it be if this was a first symptom! I highly doubt it I literally just came off bc but still, it's fun... I guess... Give it a month before I start going insane. My poor hubby haha.

Haha, taste can change definitely! No new symptoms today for me, except I had to wee twice in the night last night massive long wees!
I dont have the gas as bad today seems back to normal.
I will probably test again within next few days! It's inevitable xxx
Hope you do catch straightaway! Xxx

Yes it's gross! I've had to add sliced lemon just so I can stomach it. Everything else tastes fine though so I'm not getting my hopes up!
Oh that's definitely a good thing, especially if you normally don't get up to pee during the night!,:dance:
I'll test with you in a few days too although I am totally temped to test right now after my new symptom haha!
Hope you do too Hun xxxx

Ooh that sounds very very promising! I shall be stalking! Any idea when you might test? Xxx
 
About to go in the ttc. I try not to symptom spot too much now but I probably will end up doing it anyway haha xx
 
Sounds promising Alexis! Can't wait to hear your test result.

I cant help symptom spotting, keep feeling my boobs to see if they're bigger etc xxx
 
Haha oh I always prod to see if they hurt lol!
officially 1dpo now I think. xxx
 
I think I'll be joining you in the next few days so just dipping my toes in... Good luck ladies!
 
BFN this morn at 11dpo. Not even sure I feel anything anymore...just numbness and fedupitis is creeping over me. Boobs are sore temp still up but this happens nearly ever month. I felt implanation this cycle again at 6dpo..I just dont get what's stopping this from happening.
 
So sorry alexis. It's not easy is it. Let's keep hoping your bfp is round the corner. I'm 10dpo.
Felt implantation and had Ib at 5 to 6 dpo. Sore boobs from there, more prominent Veins nausea on and off, gets better when Id eaten and cramps from ov varying in strength.
10dpo bfn and spotting so af is coming! X x
 
Alexis have you had your progesterone checked? Maybe that's falling too early? Or your lining isn't thick enough?
I'm by no means an expert and could have that completely wrong. But my friend kept having early losses, put her on progesterone suppositories and she has a near 1 yr old now x

Yeah got it checked 4 months ago on day 23 as day 21 fell on a bank hol and result was high at 44. Infertility clinic doc said it was more than adequate and I was prob releasing 2 eggs...I am a twin and runs in my family

Could be linning who knows. My body is really letting me down.

Aww well I hope it all sorts its self out and you get a beautiful sticky bean x x x
 
Tagging along with all you symptom spotters if that’s ok! I’m either 6 or 7dpo, trying again after two early losses back to back. I keep trying to convince myself I’ll be more relaxed this cycle but am literally looking for every sign I’m pregnant again, I was feeling hot so must be pregnant, then I felt cold, must also be pregnancy related... you know the drill! My bathroom cabinet is overflowing with ERFRs just waiting to be pee’d on! On a serous note though have definitely noticed the sense of smell being waaay more sensitive today....we’ll see I guess.

Good luck ladies with your TWW, would love to hear how you all get on!

Alexis 2017 11dpo is still quite early so don’t let the fedupitis overcome you just yet xx
