Hi everyone 
I posted in the TTC bit so I'll give a bit of background here. I was on this forum around 4/5 years ago. My daughter is 4 years old and I got pregnant April 2014 (both conceived within one month!). Went back on the pill for a bit and have TTC for 9 months now and I've hit a bit of a low point. I'm 26, hubby is 28 both normal and healthy. I've had scans and smears etc, all normal. Hubby sees a different doctor and he won't do any tests as he's not 30+.
So anyway, month 9 currently in TWW. I'm about 5/6 DPO. We used pre seed for the first time this cycle as I don't seem to lose a lot (or any...) EWCM.
I'm at the stage now when whenever I get a symptoms I'm just like "oh don't be stupid AF will still turn up as always" but I'm trying my hardest to stay positive as I know I won't help myself by getting stressed.
So
Symptoms have been very odd for me. Very obvious and noticeable.
- cramps - a bit like AF but more area specific and occasionally sharp twinges in the tummy and low down
- indigestion - I never ever suffer with indigestion. I've got it now quite badly relally burpy with tummy ache and feeling sicky
- bloated, heavy feeling in my tummy
- waking up throughout the night desperate to pee
- fatigue, this one may not be a symptom as such. I work full time and take care of my daughter (usually, by myself as hubby is away a lot with work)
- irritable and tearful. Usually only get this right before and during the first days of AF. Everything is annoying me! Then find I want to cry haha
That's about it for now. Where's the line between staying optimistic without getting your hopes too high?

I've had every pregnancy symptom under the sun and AF has still appeared. I think if you weren't trying you probably wouldn't even notice your symptoms. When we're trying we search for things! I so hope this is your month though xx
