I know, right? And all those 2WW web-sites with personal stories that basically say...it could be pregnancy or it could be AF! Like, thanks for nothing!

I'm going to feed into all of the craziness by asking if your cramping was in your uterus, or did it seem like it was near your ovaries Anchor? I started cramping before o and was still crampy last night. I am 3do. Way too soon for anything...

I always get af type cramps just before I ovulate, then this time I had mild cramps from around 6 or 7 dpo that would be worse in the morning. I am 12 dpo and still have them now, they are kind of different from af cramps. Really hard to describe, but they feel like they are coming from my ovaries or womb. I had them for my first two pregnancies too, apparently it is things stretching, growing, and implanting etc.
It is a nightmare symptom spotting during the 2ww, so many things can just be a sign of your af. I was convinced at Christmas that we had done it, my af was due on Christmas Eve but didn't show. I tested on Christmas morning thinking what a lovely surprise for DH and got a BFN and within an hour my af turned up. Typical!

I would say the biggest difference for me this month has been dc, sorry for tmi but I have had quite a lot of thicker stringy dc which I don't normally get at this time of the month.

Good luck to everyone still waiting to test xx

I think it was more like mike uterus...although everything's so small this early on...who knows. They really were like AF cramps...

it is annoying - but its the total truth of it.
Thats the problem with 2ww symptoms - you can be just as likely to have them if your pregnant then if you are not.

I have had every single 2ww symptom at some point during my 2ww's - but no pregnancy. nausea, fatigue, thirst, diareah, cramps, spotting EVERYTHING! Ive had it all, but no bfp. So sadly the truth of the early symptoms is that they really don't make it any more likely that you are pregnant, doesn't mean your not, it just doesn't mean you are. And the reason those sites harp on about the fact that its just as likely to be something, as it is to be nothing, is to try and reduce some of the disappointment when af turns up....

That said it is fun to obsessively google :)

Oh Shellbelle how I do hate both soy AND OPK's, lol. I used almost ALL of my OPK's this month and they were not cheap. I'm almost tempted to buy the digital ones next month despite the cost because of my sheer and utter frustration. It seems like I had more positives than humanly possible this month and all for what...Dang well better get a BFP! If you are using Answer then that looks awfully close but try again tomorrow and I guarantee it will be positive. EWCM?

This looks like much more of a line, not sure how well it shows up in the picture, but on the test now it looks like a thin pale line so looks like you are all right and it is a BFP! :)

I have such bad cramps this morning and feel shattered, I'm on 12dpo so I will wait until Sunday now before I use another cheapie and that should show up clearly then hopefully.

I still don't quite believe it!!!

Really hope there are loads more BFPs for everyone still waiting xx

Looking good mummypink!

I'm utterly crushed. I won't be able to have as good a sway next time. And I stepped on the scale and the number was just scary. So, I'm just fatter and not pregnant - great.

Aww Surgena this is just sucky! I am praying so hard that you are going to get a BFP the next time you pee on that stick! It sucks being in limbo. :bighug:

Hey my girls!
I'm officially back in the 2ww! I ovulated yesterday & we BD'd Sun, Mon, & twice on Tues...would've done it yesterday, too, but it was already too much. LOL.
REALLY hoping this is it...especially for my sweet husband, he really wants this right now, too.

Hoping a lot of you ladies got BFPs already! I've been skimming the thread, but now that I'm back home, I'm going to pull out the laptop & reread! :)

Hey beadin :) !
Fingers crossed for you !
