New Here..want to say high!

[trying4athird]

Hi Everyone,

Feel like I am going mad and need someone to talk to and compare symptoms etc..

DH and decided to try for a 3rd we have in the past but not successful. Always ended in miscarriage.

I have DS, who is 10 years old and DD who is 8. I just would like to complete my family after studying and securing a permanent job, now seems to be the right time.

Anyway, been trying acupuncture fertility with Chinese herbs as my last option.
I am late for AF but I think only by a day, I could be 10dpo, I have not tested as I am too scared to and don't want to be disappointed AND I could have got my ovulation wrong.
My symptoms, I have a cold sore throat, a lot of wind,thirsty, moody I had slight sore boobs, but my most obvious is tiredness and my stomach feels so full.

Thanks for reading...just wondering anyone else in the same boat?

Hello, welcome to BNB! I'm also newish here and kind of in the same boat as you. I have one 11 year old son and no further pregnancies ever. We aren't officially trying, but agree that we want another one and that now is a good time since we both FINALLY have good paying jobs and a large enough house.

I'm trying to lose weight before officially TTC so haven't been charting, but FF says I'm due for AF tomorrow. I have a lot of your same symptoms, the fullness and the thirst especially. I've also been having to pee a lot, my saliva feels thicker (I remember this from my first pregnancy) and the most notable symptom is the crazy extreme fatigue. I've been so exhausted all day long for the past 3-4 days, no energy at all.

Honestly I was feeling pretty good about this cycle, until a few hours ago when I started having some mild AF like cramps. Now I'm thinking she'll probably show tomorrow right on schedule.

I read that most BFPs show on 13dpo and that before that you still might get a false negative. A whole lot of people here seem to get them at 10dpo though! I'd have tested already if I were you, but I also completely understand why you haven't. The disappointment really can be just crushing, even when you know it's still early, especially if you've been TTC for a long time. Best of luck to you, I really hope you get good news this month!
