Hi all,

I first posted on page 145. That was our first month of trying. AF came - EARLY TO BOOT. So upsetting.

Anyway, I know others have tried way longer than 2 months so I will not complain

So I didn't spend money on OPKs this time round. And I didn't chart either. But I did have EWCM a few days ago so I figure I O'd on CD 16, which was 24/09. We did the BD every 2 days starting CD 11. So I think we're good.

Sooooo....
1 DPO (25/09): nothing!
2 DPO (26/09): nothing!
3 DPO (27/09): nothing!

Well that's it really lol. Will add more as I go along.


Cheers!

Update!
4 DPO (28/09): nothing special honestly!
5 DPO (29/09): still nothing. Hmmm.....

Hi everyone!

Congrats to all those with BFPs!

New to the TTW and it is LONG! I'm currently about 5 or 6 DPO - didn't use OPKs and was only able to BD'd on the evening of my OV cramps so I hope it was enough

OV day (?): Prominent cramping in right ovary
1 dpo: gassy, cramps, moody
2 dpo: gassy, cramps, moody, bit of nausea
3 dpo: gassy, cramps, BAD headache for most of the night, tired, cervix still slightly open & medium
4 dpo: gassy, tired, watery CM
5 dpo: much more energized!, cervix high/closed, cloudy/lotion CM, bright yellow pee
6 dpo (today): bit of pressure in abdomen, pressure on top of bbs

It's my second cycle off of bcp (which I was on for 6 years) so I barely remember my cycles, but I know I didn't have the OV pain!

Best of luck to everyone! xox

A couple of days prior to ovulation, I had VIVID dreams of BD the DH which told me O was just around the corner. Days leading up to O my libido was off the charts crazy! lol...

1dpo - 2dpo: watery/clear cm, right nip a little sore

3dpo - 4dpo: creamy cm, right nip still a little sore and dry, tired and fatigued, could have slept all day. Took a two-hour nap and STILL was tired throughout the day. Also always needing to pee! Going every 30 mins or so (not normal for me even though I regularly drink a lot of water and never had this before. No pain, burning, or itching). Feeling full and bloated all the time. SO moody, irritable, depressed even? Extreme food cravings.

5dpo: cervix high/soft/closed. Creamy cm. Insane urge to pee--UTI? Have had those before, there is no burning or itching this time--but bought Cystex anyway which did help a little bit, but the urge is still there which usually isn't the case. When taking cystex, the urge will go away until the meds wear off. Map of blue veins showed up tonight right before bed. Extremely irritable for no apparent reason. Nips still sensitive--especially the right one.

6dpo: Upon waking, noticed ALL previous symptoms had disappeared. Sore nips, map of blue lines, insane urge to pee, moodiness, everything. No cm & cervix feels harder than it did last night.

7dpo: No symptoms. Creamy cm. Did feel a very mild cramp--implantation cramp or constipation cramp? Been eating like crap this weekend so constipation cramp is likely. Feeling 'wet' down there, but no cm on panties. Had a couple dizzy episodes that came out of nowhere. Did get a very low grade of nausea late tonight while watching a movie with DH not long after taking sleep aid (never happened before).

8dpo: Cream cm. Started feeling a very low grade of nausea early, early this morning while watching a movie with DH (12am). Feeling very 'wet' down there again. After waking up and drinking half my Shakeology and all of the Spark, started to feel slightly nauseated. Related to drinks? Don't recall feeling like that before. Stomach upset and have diarrhea-like stools. Again, could be the crappy diet over the weekend. Having dizzy spells again--is it the caffeine from the spark? It isn't a lack of food--had 1/2 of Shakeo which is appx 150-200 calories (for half). Sharp stabbing-like pains on left side around ovary that comes and goes. Slightly achy on lower left back.

9dpo: Creamy cm. Nothing else to report except the feeling of having a UTI came back without the burning--took Cystex & it went away. I don't feel pregnant at all and think I'm out this cycle

10dpo: Dry cm--no symptoms. Absolutely nothing to report

11dpo: Feeling very weepy today. Just want to cry. Too much over-stimulation maybe? Also VERY tired, even after taking a 2-hr nap this morning. About to take another one. Mildly nauseated. Some general muscle aches.

12dpo: Felt nauseated before I even ate or drank ANYTHING this morning--including the spark so the nausea isn't from the spark or shakeo. I'm extremely tired--had a very hard time teaching CSI today--got winded very easily even after drinking half of shakeo. Still have muscle aches, slight dizziness, EXTREMELY sad and weepy. Is AF coming in a couple of days, or are these preg symptoms? No sore boobs--just the occasional ache and pang. Nips are't sore at all.

13dpo: Dry cm. Still feeling weepy which isn't a normal sign of AF for me. Low-grade nausea especially after eating. Muscle aches, getting winded pretty easily while teaching Turbo Kick. AF is due tomorrow. Feeling like I might be getting a cold sore--which if I am, will make two months in a row (I usually only get them once every two or three years). Got a cold sore last month a few days before AF showed.

14dpo: AF is due today. Felt some possibly AF-related cramps right after 12 am. Had a hard time sleeping--uncharacteristically hot, nauseated, and feeling like my bladder was full even though I'd go to the bathroom and hardly anything would come out. Sporadically felt some dull aching in my bbs (normal sign of AF).

Will update this thread every couple of days until I get either the BFP or AF. FX!

Still waiting for AF (due today). Had a m/c a couple months ago so my cycle could still be off. Before the mc, AF came every 29 days--but it was a whole week late last month so I suppose I'll give myself until a week from today before I start getting excited. FX

3 dpo - Nausea and Dizziness
6 dpo - Nausea
8 dpo - Cramps
11 dpo - Backache
12 dpo - Headache and Cramps - Difficulty focusing
13 dpo - Nausea, Dizziness and Cramps - Difficulty focusing
14 dpo - Nausea, Backache and Cramps - Difficulty focusing - BBT still high -
15 dbp - Nausea, Dizziness, Headache - Difficulty focusing - BBT still high
16 dpo - Woke up and felt considerably better than the previous mornings. A few hours later AF arrived, along with massive cramps. It was much heavier than I've had in a long, long time.

This was my first month off of the pill, so these symptoms must have just been my body trying to figure things out. I ended up with a 30 day cycle.

Digestive systems don't really count for much for me. I have celiac disease and typically get nausea, indigestion and stomach aches on a regular basis

Big congratulations!!

I had a stuffy nose throughout all of my pregnancies from beginning to end then it just disappeared straight away. Not sure why that is!!

 

[SarahLewis]

We weren't trying as such but seems I have some similar symptoms after reading this thread so thought I'd post mine

1dpo - 5dpo - Nothing unusual, a slight cold but OH had a cold so assumed Id caught his.
6 dpo - 7 dpo - runny nose, sneezing, feeling pretty low, snappy, lots of gas & got 2 large zits (i never get zits!)
8 dpo - Sudden on set of nausea, hot flush for a minute or so and very sweaty, went after a minute. Felt very under the weather, like early flu symptoms. Got home and just kept busy with lots of cooking for the week, then sat down and didn't want to get back up. Slight twinges/cramping all day, and night including lots of burping. When I went to the loo I had brown CM in my pants. Slept very badly, awake at 5am for a wee and then couldn't get comfortable to go back to sleep.
9 dpo - BFN on test, felt nauseous all day at work, my dried coconut tasted salty. Kept stopping mid sentence as I though I was going to vomit, but it was just lot of burping! Got halfway through my lovely pasta tea and couldn't eat anymore. Was awake at 1.30am & 6am for wee's, I dont usually get up in the night.
10 dpo - BFN on test, have felt nauseous all day, I woke up starving and have just wanted carbs today. Lots of twinges/nips in lower abdomen, and mild cramping, feeling miserable & a bit low but not exhausted. Have had diarrhea today as well.

AF is due Fri or Sat, as we weren't TCC im running off a rough memory! So I still think it might have been too early for the ASDA cheapie tests to pick anything up. So i've ordered some off sentive ones off Amazon that should arrive Thursday so we'll see! Even though we weren't trying, the waiting game is killing me! I need to know.
