Samo, I get weird symptoms. Last time it was insomnia and mask of pregnancy which didnt go away. This time as well, i never got sore bbs or nausea or bloating (yet). The cigar smell that made me test was it. I now have insomnia, the empty feeling, and loss of appetite. If that makes sense. Im not hungry at all but i have this weird empty, sicky feeling all the time. Lol.
Are you doing or taking anything to increase your chances? It can be so overwhelming. I researched for weeks and finally got a regime down i liked.

Kelliria, I'm not really doing much except eating as if I'm pregnant (making sure I eat 3 balanced meals a day plus snacks to try get as many nutrients through my diet as possible), and then I'm taking a whole food pre-natal and flax oil with dha daily. Should I be doing more??
Your symptoms sound pretty unpleasant - you must be exhausted! Hoping they ease up soon

Samo, what you are doing sounds great. Those are very important. There are many things you could look into if you chose to go those routes. Opks are very helpful. That was my main go to. Temping bbt will tell you when you ovulated and can be a great indicator about your o day average. Pre-seed is good if your cm isnt good. You can look into red maca, i took flax as well, vitex or progesterone cream for short luteal, baby asprin, vit b complex very good, co q10, royal jelly or propolis is great. You sd prenatal. There are many things. I surfed the web and found things i decided would be beneficial according to my body and cycle. My concoction worked 2 times for me.

Evening ladies. I'm deeply saddened. I was cooking a breakfast dinner (fried eggs) when I remembered they can't be over easy. Over easy is my favorite and I know it must be avoided when pregnant. Does that count for the whole nine months? Does anyone know? I'm devastated.

I'm feeling sad and bummed out. I warned Hubby I may be grouchy and moody the next few days. I am starting to feel the AF cramps. Nooooo. I am thinking of taking next month off to focus on losing at least 15 pounds. My inability to conceive could definitely be due to my weight and my stupid Endotremosis. Although my last 4 pregnancies, I convinced fairly fast, stress free( I wasn't TTC) and I was a healthier weight despite still having Endotremosis.

Right now I'm trying to figure out what board would be good for me to join while TTC ? I hate the thought of not seeing the names I'm used to seeing from these past short few weeks. It's been comforting to me when I can't really confide in my TTC journey with my family because I want to surprise them.

Hi all! I’ve been checking this forum on and off over the past week or so - congrats on the new bfps guys! And I’m sorry to those who had AF show up again, I really hope it’s your turn next time.

@dragonfly23 I don’t know about where you are, but here in the uk we can eat soft egg yolks whilst pregnant. As long as the eggs are stamped with the British Lion mark those eggs are fine. Duck, quail and others aren’t safe though. I feel your pain though, I love a runny egg yolk too!

AFM, well I’m now 8/9dpo and it’s been such an easy tww. My three main symptoms are bloating, fatigue and gas. The bloating was so bad early on I looked pregnant! It’s calmed down now though which usually means AF is on her way. I had really mild cramping 5/6 dpo and for the past couple of days I’ve had what seems like short, stabbing ovary pain but on both the right and left sides. I never have left sided ovary pain so that’s new. Last month the ovary pain on my right side was so bad at 9/10 dpo I thought it was going to burst. This month it’s much better. Today I feel a tad queasy, but again that could be AF coming. My bbt is still high so that’s a plus. Ive felt so calm and relaxed during this tww it’s been great! Weird, but great. I don’t POAS unless I’m convinced there could be something going on, I just follow my bbt instead. That way I avoid seeing the bfn. So only a couple more days to wait then I’ll know if I’m out or not.

Neomasie, after reading dragonflys post i had to chuckle but my innitial shock was devistation bc the way it started. Im not gonna lie. I eat med fried eggs still. I try to get a good brand, like egglands best, but i couldnt give it up.
Midnightrose, i am on several boards and come across others on multiple forums as well. There are a lot of good ones. Everyone is so wonderful in all i have been in.
SuperRoo, im very impressed by your calmness right now! I would be a bundle of nerves! I had one bout of queasiness and tested. Keep us updated on the outcome.
