TWW for a March 2017 BFP!
Hi all! I am somewhat new here and on the journey of TTC for the first time around! This is our second active month to TTC. I have been off BC for a year now, and we did the pull out method until we decided we were ready to stop preventing last month.
I have always been nervous that I would have issues TTC and so I put it off for some time. Now that we are actually on the road to hopefully conceiving I am getting more and more excited and more and more stressed about it! Last month was a BFN, which I half heartedly expected especially since it was our first active month of TTC.
This month I am really hopeful and afraid I'm setting myself up for disappointment! I am currently 4 dpo and have had increased CM for longer than usual so I am hoping that is a good sign! If I were to conceive this month the estimated due date would be Mar 4 which is my mother's birthday! I would love that! And she would love it too, she has been waiting quite some time for a grandbaby.
This TWW is going to be downright miserable, but having a little company would help it pass quicker! :)

Mine was negative too dietician.
My temp came back up to 98 this morning at 13dpo. Nipples really burning and fuller breasts and I'm having some heart burn as well. Got a good sleep lat night after waking a lot the last few nights. Test is still negative and I'm having pms type cramps today and yesterday. Drinking more water than normal but still a bit constipated.
So I'm stil confused. In thought I was out due to timing and now these weird symptoms.

I'm sorry Chicks and Dietician. Hang in there. And by all means chicks, eat as much ice cream as you want!!!
FruitLoops, all those sound like you could end up with a BFP. I'm telling you I really didn't expect to see a positive when I took that Digi test! I have been having a dull achy type of pressure since yesterday in my lower abdomen. I read it's fairly normal to have some cramping in the first trimester. Have had zero bleeding or spotting. CM was dry all day yesterday and most of today. I did have one glob of CM today, but it was clear with no blood tinged color. I won't go in to Doctor til July 21st. They will do a blood test along with ultrasound then I believe since I will be 7-8 weeks.

Hi Ladies,
I was reading this thread and thought I would offer my experience, you never know it could help
I tested at 13DPO and got so I was waiting for AF to show as I thought I was out. After 2 weeks of no AF, I decided to test again and I got my . I actually couldn't believe it
I am now 12 weeks pregnant and the reason I got my positive so late was because I ovulated late even tho my opk said positive and I had ewcm. You just never truly know what is going on there.
My symptoms were;
Loss of appetite, Constipation, Acne breakout, Dry mouth, really sensitive nipples (couldn't touch them) & extreme tiredness.
Don't lose hope ladies, you never know how you will conceive your beautiful beans. Trust me, you are not out until shows her ugly face.
Best of Luck

Hi Ladies,
Just new to the website and thread but really enjoyed reading all of your stories. I'm 26 years old and this is my first cycle TTC and I believe I'm 8DPO with an EDD of March 7th. I started noticing some pretty serious fatigue starting on Sunday (5DPO) and have had numerous symptoms build up since then. I don't really struggle with PMS at all, so all of these symptoms are new and of course making me very hopeful. Maybe too hopeful but I'm having bloat/gas, random cramp briefly on one side, sore breasts and a weird taste in my mouth. I know there's only a very slight chance that my DH and I will get a BFP our first go around, so I'm really trying to control my emotions and hopes. I feel like maybe I'm making these symptoms up just because I want so badly to be pregnant. But time will tell. Now I'm just trying to decide when to start testing. I haven't had any implantation spotting, which I've heard is a relatively major sign, so I don't know what to think. But congrats to LAAR and Nikki on your BFPs! Hoping your baby dust spreads to me.

Well I double checked my test from this morning and there is a line. I'm unsure if it's an evap as I have literally never had any indication of a line before on any test. I have it in my gallery of anyone wants to check. I bought a frer to take in the morning but I'm kinda excited. I have never had even a hint of a line so I'm nervous it's an evap.

Hi OverThinker and thanks for joining us! You sound like you are having promising symptoms, but it's probably still pretty early to know for sure. This was only my 2nd month TTC and it happened so anything is possible! Keep us posted on your progression! Oh, and I never experienced IB and still got my BFP :))
FruitLoop, WOW! That is exciting!!! I tried to look in your gallery but I'm apparently not familiar enough with the site to figure out where it is. I went to your page but the only thing I found said "HPT images: 0". If I were you I would take another tomorrow morning and see if the line appears quicker!
