Symptom spotters anonymous lol

[PurdieCat]

Morning ladies, how's everyone doing? All my tests are now down, hubby has his appointment next Thursday so hopefully we'll find out why we've been unsuccessful soon and then be referred. AF due tomorrow, no spotting as yet but have sore boobs, gas and frequent need to pee. How are you all?

Hi Beca,

It isn't over until AF arrives and as that's not due tomorrow, you may just not have enough hcg in your system yet to show on the tests. Most are 25miu or higher, but the superdrug early detection tests are 10miu so can pick up earlier. I got my BFP at 8dpo.

Wishing you the best of luck xx

Hi everyone

New to the forum and the world of TTC..

I am so glad I found you guys, I have been driving myself crazy in the 2WW

I was on honeymoon last week and i am convinced I am now pregnant. Possibly 12 days into 2WW... so will be testing soon.

I have had unbelievably sore boobs for over a week now and this never happens to me, which is why I am hopeful... and impatient

Hi Purdie,

Wow, what a few weeks you've had. Congratulations on the wedding, how lovely. If you're 12dpo, go and get yourself a superdrug early detection test. Get a couple of packs and test every 3 days until either your period comes or you get a positive.

Wishing you the best of luck and welcome to the forum. xx

I so want to, but im away from the hubby until 15dpo... I am so tempted to test without him, but would be gutted if he missed a positive. Its so frustrating

Talk to him. I totally get wanting to wait. But it's also hard on you not to. Me and OH did the deed for the first time unprotected in 4 years since I had my coil removed in 2013. A few days later I started having symptoms, just feeling odd (a few pages back on here) and I got a positive tests on 8dpo after a very faint line at 7dpo.

When I tested on 7dpo, I didn't say anything to him. We've been waiting for 9 years to start trying and he's desperate to be a dad so I really didn't want to get his hopes up given that we'd only done it once so chances were so small. So, I waited, tested again on the Saturday morning 8dpo and took the tests to him in bed to wake him up as they were conclusive. I always planned on letting him do it all with me if I ever felt I might be pregnant, but the reality was, I wasn't sure if I could be, I didn't want to get his hopes up and it turned out to be the right decision.

Whatever you decide, best of luck to you. xx

Oh wow, what a beautiful story! So pleased for you

Im going mad, one min im convinced the next I think i am imagining it. My friend recently got pregnant on their first try and I think I am just being too hopeful. I am going to the chemist now to pick up a prescription... maybe??

Oooh, good luck. I'm not sure if I've lost mine as had a little spotting for a few days so I'm not on my tww any more but waiting nonetheless.

I'll keep my fx for you xx

Ohh fingers crossed for you. I caved and tested. Not a sniff of a line. I think i am overly hopeful.

Good luck to all of you who are due to test soon.

I'm waiting on my period for this month (not due until the 16th and no chance of falling this month as we haven't been trying) then we are going to not try and not prevent while on holiday... which will be great for my TWW as I'm not going to be due on until a few days after we get back so I won't be stressing as much.

If we don't get pregnant on holiday we are going to wait until November to start trying. I have uni exams in June so not a good idea to be due a baby around that time.

Hi Hun. Sorry I actually meant my bloods and smear for fertility. I'm avoiding poas, just waiting for AF to show to save on some frustration. Hoping our tests will give us some answers. How are you?

 

[BecaM]

Well, AF was due yesterday but she's taking her sweet time. I've just got some colour when I wipe. So frustrating she's normally right on time

Hope af stays away. Xx

Oh dear lol. That sounds like a frustrating dream. It'd be nice if she did stay away but I'm not holding out hope. I'm just not that lucky. She's just toying with me, I'm sure of it

This will hopefully be my rainbow baby!

Hey! Anyone wanna start this forum post back up?

I'm currently 4.5 days late and wasn't TTC this month. In fact, we DTD the day my period last ended and once again the day before it was supposed to arrive. I have taken 3-4 tests, all negative, and trying to not test again unless I am a week late. Noticing a LOT of symptoms such as yesterday some light pink and brown spotting but only whenever I wipe. And sore boobs, but not like how most women say their boobs hurt when they are PG. Wild and crazy vivid dreams every night since last Friday/Saturday. Very gassy, have had some stomach pains, but mostly related to gas or hunger lol not like my AF cramps.

Anyone else in the same boat?
