Symptom spotting - anybody getting a burning crampy feeling about 5-6 dpo?
Another BFN today :(
In looking at the page with all the stats, it doesn't really seem to matter that much between FR or abstain, there are both boys and girls born. If FR gives me another bfn this month, I think it'll be out the window! Sorry to hear about your bfn, love being a mommy. Is it still early to test? Good luck!
I'm here now too :-) 4dpo. I never got a positive opk this month but pretty certain I O'd (given other signs). But kind of kicking myself b/c I botched the timing. Oops! Since I didn't get a opk and I O'd a day earlier than expected, DH and I DTD unprotected at -4 days before O (didn't use preseed and j&d) in an effort to be more spontaneous. Grrr. Not ideal. But I felt a lot of O pain around 2 in the afternoon on O day (when FF says i O'd) and then we made a good attempt at 10 pm that night and again the next night (cause I still wasn't sure if I had O'd). Worried that a girl spermie probably made it first - that would be ok though- wondering if there's a chance for a boy making it first :-) guess I have to stop worrying and wait and see! Feels good to get the worries out on here though!
Congrats to Peb! Such great news. Fingers crossed!!
Good luck everyone waiting!
Another BFN. I'm pretty sure I'm out this month :(
I'll go to Dr and see if they can find anything wrong.
Well now I just got a positive opk! Have had ewcm past 2days and now cervix is open again. I guess I'm not 5dpo but rather cd 18 so this is a few days late for me if this is the real deal here. I guess we'll give it a go again tonight and tomorrow!
How do we post our FF charts on here? Mine is really wacky this month and would love some feedback from you wonderful ladies!
Lbam, anything today?
I was crampy again yesterday, I'm wondering if its a good thing or even if I'm usually crampy when not ttc and I'm only noticing it this month because I'm looking out for things kwim:)
So, I've been in a really great rhythm with exercise and trying hard to maintain the high intensity cardio that is suggested, but I got hit with a miserable cold on Saturday. Breathing is far too difficult to do any exercise, and I am worried that in the early days of my 2ww, I am messing everything up. I know illness sways pink, too--does a cold count? I am also afraid my temps are off because of it-I had a much higher temp than usual this morning-- although sleep has been so bad for the last week that I don't know that any of my temps are accurate. Hmph!
ELP, my fingers are crossed for you! I was super focused on my body last month and so felt like I had every symptom in the book. It seems hard to tell what is what during these two weeks. Crampy seems good, though!
I hate messed up cycles grrrr Af was due today, no AF but BFN. But my cycles are irregular so who knows when Af will start.
Does anyone know much about ewcm and O timing ?
Does ewcm mean you are ovulating or does it mean you will ovulate or you already have?
What about if you don't get traditional EWCM but something like a thick / clearish mucus blob would you consider that ewcm / Signs of ovulation ?
Hello there ladies,soooo nice to join u all ;)
Had our attempt yesterday,will be posting my sway in the attempts, I am ovulating today, had a hard time Bd this month,hubby is going thru lots of stress and couldnt ahem ahem perform, u can not believe the things I had to do to help him,or else we wouldnt have had a chance this month,stuff I would have never done EVER, but what you wont do for a little bundle of joy eh ;)
I am a massive POAS addict,I literally start testing 1 dpo, and once I hit 8dpo I test twice daily,I get crazy,but am crazy scared of chemicals so dunno when Ill start testing this time,but one thing I know for sure, I AM SOOOO EXCITED,AND I JUST CANT HIDE IT, lol, I seriously cant wait, I stare at babies in posters and in strollers and my ovaries actually shift and cramp,I kid u nit,did anyone feel such a thing?
Ok,long story short,Ill be cheking in on u ladies later on today,till then, fingers crossed,toes crossed,bra straps crossed for our BFPs xoxo

hey all just wishing you good luck and lots of baby dust ;-)
Good luck everyone.
Still no AF and BFN
Bummer, lbam. I hope you get something definitive one way or the other very soon. Waiting is so hard. Thinking of you!
I'm still trying to hold off--today is 7 dpo. I told myself I would wait until next Monday, although I might cross my fingers for a 9 dpo faint positive! :) Not feeling any symptoms, although all those I felt last time resulted in a bfn, so I'm not letting that get me down! Since my DS2 was somewhat of a surprise, I don't think it is unusual for me to not have anything obvious, but a few days will tell.
Good luck everyone else!
Joining! :fx: yayyy!
11 DPO...BFN :( The only thing I'm hangining on to is my triphasic chart. I know its not 100% a sign of pregnancy, but it's my only positive sign that there may be a small glimmer of hope left. If I'm not pregnant this cycle we're taking 5 months off due to holidays and other travel conflicts with corresponding "would-be" due dates. So depressing :(
Finally got AF on CD 35
ltester FX for BFP hope the next few days go quickly for you.
Welcome pooh_ob
BFN's are so depressing, I really hope you get a BFP tomorrow FX for you Babygirl2013
Booooooo mummy. I hate that witch. I find BFNs cut me to my soul, this cycle I will not POAS until 12 dpo... I WILL NOT I WILL NOT I WILL NOT. Good luck itester!!!!
You have fortified me, Anchor! I almost gave in to checking in the morning, contrary to my original plan! I am not prepared to get a week of bfns hoping the next day will be positive. So, here goes getting through the weekend.
Sorry to hear about AF, Liam. It is so disappointing, even when we know it is a very real possibility. And babygirl, I really hope this is your month... 5 months is a long way off.
I am thinking that today is 5dpo. I can usually tell pretty obviously buy the ewcm. This month I am a little confused. I am having less ewcm (which is great since I'm swaying for a girl) but it start on Friday and lasted until Tuesday. Its never lasted longer than 2 days before. I am still really hopeful that this is my month! If it isn't then we are wait 5-6 months to miss holidays and birthdays. I am trying REALLY hard to wait until the day AF is due. I will not test early. I will not test early!
OMG, Im am 1dpo and already am going INSANE, lol, I have many symptoms but I know its tooo early and that its just the progesterone kicking in, keeping my fingers crossed for us all.
I salute all the ladies who r going to wait,I wish I was as strong willed as u,I usually start testing 5dpo,LMAO.,and keep om testing till BFP or AF.
I wonder if anyone has gotten a bfp at 5dpo ever,is there a poll about this somewhere?

It looks like the chances of getting a bfp in any case is very slim on day 5. Day 9 seems to be the big shift--can you hold off that long? :)
Shifts at day 9? Sweet! Now I have a date to hold out for lol. Thanks!
I got a bfp ladies:) I thought I was out but had a nagging feeling in my head to keep testing as I have had palpatations for the past 4 days and I only get palpatations when I'm pregnant. i am gonna look into it more as I'm not sure if they are a good or bad thing? and they dont usually start this early. Good luck everyone, I hope you all get your bfp's real soon!!!
Congrats elp! What #day did you get your bfp? I figured you probably would by your symptoms but it's hard to know if you should be hopeful or not. Hoping for my bfp and everyone else 2ww!
Ufffff, having major major major hot flashes today,must be hormonal,my cheeks are all flushed red and Im sweaty ,lol, plus I have a slight headache coming on,and not really nausea as per say,but I dont have much of an appetite,woke up to the smell of DH frying eggs,bleh,didnt have an appetite for them at all.
I know its waaaay toooo early to have even any symptoms, but all the stuff im feeling I dont usually feel before AF, soooo keeping my fingers crossed:fx:
I am struggling to not test!!! I'm at 7dpo today. I keep reminding myself that every time I see a bfn I am sad for the rest of the day so it's better to just wait. Its just so hard!
Tell me about it,Im 2DPO and I am dying resisting the urge to rush thru the door to buy pregnancy tests, ugh
And the worst thing is walking around the mall in limbo,not knowing if u have any chance to get a BFP this month,and then u walk by a maternity shop( this happened to me today), I got sooooo upset and worried that it would be too good to be true ,and even though I was feeling pretty darn good and positive this month,but Im seriously starting to die inside.
Did my ticker disappear?it doesnt show up on my screen,weird.
Anyways,as for symptoms today,feeling bloated,and having constant cramping,my uterus right above my pubic bone feels hard and swollen, am having hot flashes I suddenly feel super hot and my cheeks flush and sweat bullets,and I have an overwhelming feeling of being content and happy,I noticed Im smiling alot more,am less stressed,and have developed extreme patience for my little naughty monkeys dd almost 5, and ds 3, usually I lose my temper in a snap,but now its diff,I am calm and serene, makes me wonder whats happenin .
Am excited ,cant wait to test,being a POAS addict makes it hard,ugh,thinking positive thoughts
Luv u ladies xoxo
So who's testing today?anybody?
Rabbit did you ov on wed? Me too! I feel like a complete lunatic. I just feel like something is going on down there lol. I thought it was inflamed or bruised or something from extra dtd lol. But that was wed and I still feel it today. And my hubby feels like it's a "done deal" as well. Fx
Hey Ladies I would like to join you.
I am officially in the 2ww so the waiting begins. Had really bad O-Pains yesterday starting at 8pm, I couldn't even walk. DH had to bring our little one to bed and I took a hot bath :D. Temps went up today and I am soooo reliefed that we can stop Bd'ing now. Feel much more relaxed now that I know we haven't missed O. I had a scan on cd 15 which was on Tuesday and I had two big follicles on the right side (20 and 17mm), so if DH has super sperm we migt get blessed with twins :fx:.
I can't wait to take a test!!! I am planning to take one on Feb 25th. I will be 10dpo by then and it will be our 2nd wedding anniversary. DH and I both have a great feeling about this cycle.
:fx: for all of you!
So FF is showing a later O than it had predicted, so I am afraid I really have no idea how many dpo I am. Could be 10 could be 7. How annoying. I never got a good opk, so I am going on my generally predictable timing. That said, I thought last cycle was predictable too, and I got a bfn! Anyway, my DH has encouraged me to stop thinking about it, but I am irrationally tired today. Could be a result of my week long cold, but I am more tired today than I have been all week. Could be a good sign!
I'm right there with you Itester. My temps were all over the map due to having a cold and my toddler with a cold teething = interrupted sleep. I don't know if im 11 dpo or 6 dpo - so annoying. But I had a really bad backache this am for like 5 hrs and this is unusual for me. I also had this with DD at 6 dpo (implantation?). Boobs giving off odd sensations and very tired...Just waiting now....
Hi ladies. Sorry, I've been lurking around here very quietly this month. I got a BFP 12DPO last month and then had a chemical at 15DPO which really threw me. We decided to try again straight away but I have no idea what my chances are this month-I know cycles can be a bit crazy after a chemical. But I'm pretty sure I O'd-my temps shifted CD15 and have remained high ever since-possibly even a tri-phasic pattern? I'm now 12 DPO but unlike my usual battle to hold off as long as possible before POAS, this month I just can't bring myself to. I really, really want to see a BFP but am so scared of another chemical. Just going to have to get brave and put myself out of my misery I guess. Just wanted to check in with you ladies and wish everyone lots of luck with getting BFPs and having sticky beans! I hope we're all posting BFPs in the 2ww place really soon!
Hello ladies! I am about 7 dpo and this is our first cycle ttc post IUD removal. I guess you could say I am having some symptoms (cervical "pain", weird stomach feelings, +OPK since O day, cloudy cm, etc). I don't think it is enough to be too certain we are getting a bfp this month, but I definitely feel different. I went to go buy some pregnancy tests from the dollar store to start testing early and they were all out! I figured it wasn't meant to be and I should just continue with my original plan of waiting until the 24th. But those two tests I already have are calling my name, lol!
Hi there,
I'm about 11 dpo today, first month trying for baby no. 3. Swaying for a girl after two boys. I feel like my boobs are more tingly but I'm probably just imagining it. Going to test tomorrow, fingers crossed because the girl diet is pretty restrictive!
Good luck everyone.
Oh dear God, 4dpo, going INSANE, whenever I think to POAS,I get excited amd my blood pressure elevates,and my heart pounds,and stomach churns, from excitement,from fear of BFN, and from dreading a chemical ( God forbid)
As for symptoms today,my breasts are a bit sore,nipples tingly,clothes will bother me if I go bra-less, getting mild waves of nausea,and the most prominent symptom remains a heavy full feeling in pelvis,like a never ending contraction.
Praying praying praying....:pray::pray::pray::pray::HH:
