Reply by ToastPlz » May. 22, 2012 8:38am Hello, I am 10DPO today. Thankfully, I haven't been sick since that tends to mess with the symptoms I would feel. Its possible your symptoms are from being sick, but my fingers are crossed for you! Here's how the last few days have been for me: Ovulation: Discomfort on right side (O never is really painful for me) 1DPO: Nothing 2DPO: Nothing 3DPO: Slight heaviness in lower abdomen 4DPO: Same as 3 5DPO: Heaviness while laying down + backache for a couple hours 6DPO: Stuffy nose, backaches off and on throughout, exhausted 7DPO: Backaches of and on, stuffy nose, exhausted 8DPO: Same as 7 9DPO: Same as 7 & 8 10DPO: (So far) Same as above + thirsty and slightly more frequent bathroom trips 7DPO: Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15

Reply by ToastPlz » May. 22, 2012 7:11pm Well, if this month isn't the month for ya, there's always next month and all the fun trying ;) I wouldn't be very surprised if this isn't the month for me either (although I am always hopeful) since my symptoms are so similar to AF's except the exhaustion and stuffy nose. We'll see! How long have you been TTC? Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 22, 2012 7:33pm Yeah. The way I see it is if we donâ??t get our bfp this month itâ??s more money saved ï?? and yes having a lot of fun trying considering we have used condoms for the last 6 ½ years! (sorry), pill or injection does not agree with me one bit. Never liked the pill anyway. Itâ??s funny how af has the same symptoms. All previous months while not ttc Iâ??ve had all sorts and probably a few that would point to pregnancy but it wasnâ??t possible, obviously. I only have slight tender boobs but nothing major which is normal before af. Well I hope you get good news. When do you plan on testing? Ah this is our first month trying and you?

Reply by ToastPlz » May. 22, 2012 7:47pm HaHa! Much the same with me. 5 years using protection (condoms and IUD). So we are having tons of fun as well! This is our 1st month trying as well, although we are trying for #3! I plan on testing on Saturday. I never was one for testing before AF was due, which she should rear her ugly head tomorrow or the next day (if she's going to). Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 22, 2012 9:26pm Wow! ï?? Makes me feel better knowing that this is your first month. I feel very sorry for the ladies who have been trying for a very long time =( Yay for # 3. Iâ??m trying for #1, little nervous! Well I wish you all the best and hope af does not show! ï?? keep me posted ï?? best of luck. Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17

Reply by ToastPlz » May. 23, 2012 6:29am I'm sorry :( No AF symptoms this morning, so she isn't coming today. She may still show up tomorrow. Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 23, 2012 2:07pm That's Gf no af has shown up. Fingers crossed for ya!! Yep got all af symptoms, sore lower back, slight cramping and sore bbs, cervix quite high but probably come down soon.. Oh well, better luck next time :) Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 24, 2012 6:57am Sorry AF is not leaving you alone this month. Hopefully next time around! My fingers will be crossed for ya!! As I thought no AF yesterday. My bbs started hurting last night and are achy this morning, and I have a very dull cramp to the right side and up higher than usual for AF. I don't usually get sore bbs and my AF cramps are usually down low and center. I don't know what to think. Is AF coming and my symptoms are changing a little? Or will I get a BFP soon? What do you think? Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 24, 2012 2:04pm Thanks, I hope she stays away too! Haha I think it sounds possible you will get bfp especially if you never get those sort of cramps and sore bbs before af. It's a good sign :) plus no af :) You always on time with af?? When do you think you'll test? Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 24, 2012 4:00pm No, I don't get these cramps, or sore bbs with af. The only time I have had sore bbs was with my 1st pg. My 2nd pg they were only slightly tender. I have been on time with af (mostly) for the last 2 years. Every now and then I'll be a few days early/late. We'll see. Wait, wait wait lol! Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 24, 2012 4:16pm Hehe, how exciting! How long do you think you'll wait for before you test? Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 24, 2012 4:38pm I was originally going to test on Saturday, but I think I'll wait a couple more days. So maybe Mon or Tue Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 24, 2012 5:09pm Great. Well i have fingers and toes crossed that she does not show for both of us! Update me on how you get on, i'll do the same :) - Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 24, 2012 8:46pm Awesome! I look forward too it. I would put in Emoticons too but I don't know how yet! LOL Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 24, 2012 8:47pm Good Luck! And fingers crossed for us! Hope AF stays away for several months ;) Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 27, 2012 12:11am Hi How you going? Af show up for you? Today is 14dpo AF day, it's 5pm and feel nothing of her part from sore lower back. She may show tonight! I tested late yesterday afternoon and it was bfn but my pee was diluted so maybe it was too early anyway Hoping :) Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
Reply by ToastPlz » May. 27, 2012 7:46am No AF yet. Did she end up coming for you? 15 DPO and I was due for af 3-4 days ago! Waiting until Tuesday to test, but who knows I may give in before then. I have heard of so many people who got BFN from 9DPO until 17 or 18 DPO before they got their BFP! Kepping my fingers crossed for us both!! Report	ToastPlz Posts: 15
Reply by KiwiGalNZ » May. 27, 2012 2:42pm Wow that sounds good for you ;) Yeah I heard some ladies get bfp a week later so yeah it's best to wait :) Af didn't show yesterday. This morning I checked my cervix again and it was high but reachable. Warning tmi: I did notice a spec of brown blood with brown cm on finger. if af starts today it should get heavier so time will tell. Report	KiwiGalNZ Posts: 17
