Ralu, don't worry it's not over yet.
The first time my best friend got pregnant she didn't know she was until week 13 as she had period regularly on a dot. Be positive.

I'm feeling pretty confident in these uterus sensations I've had since last night ! It feels full , heavy and bloated for 24 hours now . Fx!

Raluc- I was going to say with my son I started getting AF like cramps at 10 dpo but she never came . Got my bfp at 12dpo with him. Keep up the hope

That's goes for all you ladies !!! Keep up the hope !!!

Queen - I too had planned to test on Friday , well my Saturday here in Germany ! Keep us posted ! I poas today too even though I know it's too early and of course

Let me add also ...I hate the tww! It messes with your mind sooo bad and days feel like weeks :(

@ knicole, thank you. You keep us posted too!! Cheers to testing on Friday!! I'm nervous & excited. But I hate setting myself up for disappointment :/. Good Luck Ladies!!!!!!!

My dear ladies :). What would I do without you? You are keeping my hopes up!!! God bless you :)

No AF yet, 10 dpo(I think) , still cramping, only difference sharp pain left side, constant pain... And my lower back is killing me.... I might test tonight , see how I feel by then, it's 1pm here in New Zealand:). I am work in my lunch lol
Didn't tell my hubby anything, told him I am out, don't want to put his hopes up.

What test should I use for a better result? Have no clue. ( that's in case my AF DOESNT SHOW HER FACE BY TONIGHT )

Xoxox ladies

Hey Ralu,
For me the best were those really cheap dip stick you can buy on internet. You can get the very sensitive ones - 10mui/ml and digital clearblue. With the cheap ones you can buy a lot of them and just keep on testing to your hearts desire - you can do 3/4 tests at the same time just to be sure
I was very disappointed with first response. For a test that claims it is so quick it showed positive 3 days later than the others, even tescos own brand was faster.

Ralu- it's not over till AF shoes her face ! I still have hope for you ! I've always liked the cheapie tests with the pink dye.

Queen-Ty Hun I'm nervous too. I was shaking when poas yesterday ! Fx!

Afm- I'm feeling disappointed and defeated :( from 6-7 dpo I was having positive feelings in my uterus then I woke up this morning to nothing ... Nada no fullness no dull aching no bloating . I feel 100% out and not preggo and it sucks because I was 100% sure yesterday that I had felt that exact heaviness around implantation with my son . So the fact I woke up today feeling non bloated and awesome is really defeating . I know it's still early at 8-9 dpo but I honestly do feel out :( and it's disappointing . Such a mind game the tww is and I hate it :/

Nicole, hun dont worry... Like you said, its not over until the witch shows her face!!! I am going to test tomorrow morning if my af its not here by then. I had dull achy pain all day in my left side.... And very sore boobs. But i get sore boobs before period all the time. I am going to bathroom everytime i feel like i l feel somthing leacking lol ... And still no blood. Tomorrow another day... Will see

Ok so I want to give you ladies some hope ! I was talking to an ob nurse and one of my friends today and my friend had her daughter in February . She had no pregnancy symptoms besides her missed AF . She had no clue she was pregnant without that. Then my ob nurse friend had said most symptoms women get before 9dpo are symptoms of progesterone surges after ovulation . These are pms symptoms that begin at 1dpo . Most think pms starts a few days before when it's actually two weeks before . Progesterone in the two week wait include, sore boobs, gas, bloating , nausea, fatigue , constipation to name a few . This is why symptom tracking can give us false hope or like in my case with no symptoms , lead to frustration because we have no "symptoms" now depending how sensitive you are to hcg it will begin entering your blood stream 2-3 days AFTER implantation another 2-3 days in your urine so up to 6 days after implantation . Some can feel the affects of small amounts of hcg as early as 8dpo but not likely until closer to day of missed AF .

Also on the topic of implantation . Most women feel nothing and get bfps some do but most won't feel anything during implantation .

This made me realize I need to stop obsessing on symptom tracking unless it's 8dpo and beyond .

Keep up the hope ladies !
