Hi ladies! After a 6-7 month hiatus and us not actively ttc, DH and I have decided to really try again.
I used my last opk last week and once I saw it was negative, I decided to let nature take its course this month before I jump head first back into the whole charting/bbt/opk/evil plotting stuff. I forgot how nerve wracking and kind of stressful this all is. (I’m crossing my fingers that this month is it!)

So my CM has been kind of all over the place for the last five days (Friday was watery, Saturday egg white and stretchy, Sunday a wet feeling and kind of sticky/stretchy milky, yesterday was egg white and a bit watery, today it's like a wet feeling with a smidge of sticky cm). We’ve been BDing every day in the hopes we catch the eggy, and last night I used pre-seed for the first time, and being the lets-try-everything type, I laid flat on my back with pillows under my hips for 20 minutes afterwards. (I’m in this to win it! lol)

Right now I have these fleeting odd sharp twinges and slight cramps in the left side of my lower abdomen, and on Saturday I had them as well. I’ve been on Dr. Google and now I’m entirely convinced I may be dying lol. But seriously, does anyone else ever get O pain? Do these cramps normally come and go over 3-4 days? I’ve had little twinges here and there in past cycles but never like this, at least never noticeable to where I was very very aware of it.

I’m kind of wishing I would have just got some damn opks so I would at least have an idea of whether or not I O’d already. But since there's an app for that, my app tells me the witch is due around May 13th. So I’ll go with that and consider myself 1dpo and try not to poas until that day.

This whole tww is going to slowly drive me insane. I can already feel the crazy kicking in! :wacko:

Anyone care to be tww buddies and/or symptom-obsess with me? lol

Baby dust to all, may the odds be ever in our favor... :dust:
 
I'm 4 dpo right now. This whole trying thing is kind of scary and stressful. I'm trying not to get too crazy into all of the tests and stuff. I have a couple apps that I use to tell me when I should be ovulating and when I'm supposed to get my period but that's it. So I guess I'm only assuming I'm 4 dpo... it's weird how everything becomes a possibly symptom when you're trying lol. This is our first cycle trying for our first child. Just got married April 12th :)
 
We just started ttc and I'm symptom obsessed also!
I just want to poas every day haha.
But I'm holding out.
I'm due for my period on May 9th apparently (according to an app)
But I'm recently off birth control so I'm not sure if that's going to be accurate anymore.
so I'm stressed over that too. I'm hoping to have normal cycled still!
 
AF is due on the 8th for me :) at least that's what my apps tell me lol just 10 more days until I can test with any hope of a bfp. I'm with you though I just want to test every day lol
 
Can't wait to hear your results Tika!I've been so close to going and getting tests! I just gotta wait a week :p seems like forever!
We pretty much started trying the same time!
Good luck :)
 
Hi ladies, thanks for replying.
I've been trying my hardest not to symptom-spot (so far so good) but my DH has been quizzing me on symptoms (cramps, cm, skin breaking out) and he's been constantly on google. At this point I'm not sure who wants a baby more lol.

Somehow this month just feels different. Could be all these cramps and twinges or the cm that comes and goes, but this morning all I wanted to do was poas even though I know it's waaay too early for that lol
 
me and my Dh are the exact same way! I'm trying not to symptom spot but it's so hard not to :p
He also refuses to let me near anything harmful to our potential babyand always rubs my tummy. It's pretty cute of him but it makes me want to know now! Aha
I just wanna see a positive test! I'm so anxious, got over a week left to wait.
 
lol mine won't let me lift anything heavy. with the bit of symptoms that I've been tracking on my ovia and FF apps, I believe I may start testing by the middle of next week lol
 
Hi trixiesmith, I am 3 dpo and will also be testing sometime in the second week of May. Fingers crossed for you! :D
 
Awe Trixie that's cute though!
Yeah he now cleans the guinea pig cage, won't let me have pain killers (had a migrane yesterday, urg) and makes sure I eat properly everyday.

Makes me more excited cause he is :)
1 more week to testing ladies!
 
Hi writing! :wave: I'm sending babydust your way and keeping my fingers crossed for you too.

right now, my DH is quizzing me on symptoms again. The symptoms I've been tracking are being tired, thirsty, the twinges and cramping still, and the occasional few minutes of where my stomach churns. Anyone else experiencing anything promising?
 
I at first experienced twinge and cramps. Then I had a complete loss of appetite for a few days, and I'm usually constantly eating!! I felt gassy and bloated too. Now I just feel little cramps here and there, along with a tiny bit of nipple soreness.
My Dh is convinced I'm pregnant ::p
I'm Not So sure
 
Last night I almost caved and tested early. Somehow I found the strength to put the test back in the drawer lol.
Since yesterday I've had sore bbs (which I can feel just below my armpits) and the past few days I've still had cramps on my right side, backaches, bloating and a bit of creamy cm.
DH has told me to test on my own whims and just let him know how it turns out - but I know he's getting excited since he heard the sore bbs comment, because apparently I (and I quote) "have never ever ever complained about sore bbs before af"

when are you ladies testing?
 
Kay guys so I'm sitting here totally feeling fine. I get super nauseous all of a sudden and I ended up puking soon after.*
Morning sickness?*
I'm sorta excited!!

Hey ladies, I have been trying to conceive for 3 years. Last October it happened, but unfortunately it ended in a miscarriage. I know its going to happen very soon. I am currently 6dpo. Here's to the countdown.
 
Hello! I will be testing around May 15th (which is when AF is due), so I'm right around the same time frame as many of you.

I am with you all in trying not to symptom spot, but I haven't been succeeding very well. My nipples lave been sensitive, but that happens pretty much every month about this time (cruel trick, Mother Nature). I feel as if I have a great deal more cm than normal for me at this point in my cycle, I have had some slight lower abdominal cramps, and yesterday I craved Taco Bell..... I couldn't tell you the last time I actually wanted fast food. I guess we will see!

Fx for all of you and baby dust to all!!! :dust:

I have sensitive nipples, I'm bloated, creamy CM, and lower abdominal pressure. It's going to happen!!! Praying for all!!!
 
OMG I've been reading you girls' comments and I want to know if any of you got a BFP yet! I swear I could sit and scroll through these tww threads and eat popcorn. Love reading everyones comments! Update!! :D
