Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

Cath_Ster

Fingers crossed that you've timed it right lulu. Aileth - not to get your hopes up but those are the symptoms I had... Fingers crossed for you!!

I tried the second digital test yesterday (so glad I bought a pack of 2!) and it said 2-3 weeks pregnant so it's official :eek: I guess at some point I need to move to the other thread but it just doesn't feel real yet!

Hope you're better soon dottymrsp!

Hi all

I hope you don't mind a newbie joining......

A little info - I am 31 OH is 32, were NTNP for a few months last year and then actively started trying from October 2014 and have been using ovulation kits since.

All around us friends are falling pregnant at the drop of a hat, so already getting a little frustrated, even though I know it is still early days, but was truly devastated last week when AF arrived.

Have already developed a terrible symptom spotting habit from as soon as I've stopped ovulating!!!!!

BabyB, it's really hard not to get stressed about the whole TTC thing. It will happe when you least expect it.

We have now moved house so away from the inlaws. Yippee! Everyone keeps saying 'new house new baby', and commenting why we need such a big house for three of us. Grrrr.

I'm on day 31 of a 28 day cycle, but have sore boobs and cramps, so am assuming AF has just bee delayed slightly by the stress of moving.

Keep checking every time I go to the toilet!

I don't know anything about smiley faces but Internet cheapies worked for me. You just gotta look for a line that disappears once you've ovulated. If it makes oh nervous, don't tell him you're using them!! I didn't til after and he was glad! I have about 20 left if anyone wants them for free? Just pm me your address and I'll post them To you. They'll be out of date by the time I'll need them again (all being well!!)

I'm symptom spotting so bad. I know I'm just going to end up being disappointed. I'm struggling to stop myself testing for another week. Been cramping for a full 48 hours now, positive opk has worried me a bit, now ewcm and light brown discharge. The cramping is making me feel horrific, ugh.

I think it is impossible not to symptom spot...

I'm sitting here, 3 days late, boobs hurt (not usually), stomach cramps, some odd pain in my lower right back, but keep feeling like AF has arrived, yet when I go to check, nothing.

Having had an MMC at 12 weeks last time, i am so reluctant to test, as i just feel like any BFP might end in disappointment again.

And i am sure if i go out and buy a test, AF will turn up!

Nothing in my boobs, but then again I've never, ever had any sensitivity etc in them ever regarding AF or hormones. The only reaction I get from my boobs is (this is going to sound REALLY bizarre) recently when I go in our downstairs toilet, as soon as I do my nips go like bullets and really sensitive LOL. My OH has been calling it the 'sexy toilet' now!

I'm only 7 days dpo, so I'm 99% sure it's my brain. The cramps definitely aren't my brain. I don't really want to take pain relief, as it's sort of comforting in a way that they're there? Weird!
