8-9 DPO and Tested this morning. Negative. This is 2nd month TTC. I’ve had more CM then normal, and cramping with twinges. But no sore boobs. I’ve still got time before AF. So staying hopeful.

Morning ladies....
Kahlan ...ahh I am keeping everything crossed for you this month
Hberry....we are all hoping that hubby will be wanting to get his freak on next week
Moonbeam ...morning to you...,I tested this morning too (9dpo) bit was kind of expecting it....it was only with an ic, I have three left now so am going to do one each morning and see how it goes before buying an frer...usually I buy them and then come on af so this time I’m not buying any until the last moment

Ugghh I am sooo bloated this morning, woke up feeling like I’ve eaten a massive dinner ..my tummy feels really swollen and crampy, boobs are also feeling very swollen and my nipples are burning/tingly....if this month finishes with a af then it has been a really cruel month....

Morning ladies! He's been wanting "it" for 2 days now. Although he's been on this where would we put the baby stuff..

Hey Ladies just looking for your thoughts or similar stories please. Been ttc for over a year now with baby #1

I’m currently on CD27 out of a 32 day cycle. I’ve been feeling cramps in lower back and niggly pains on and off in tummy like as AF was coming but still 8 days before she’s due to arrive. Seems a bit early for symptoms like this.

Nipples have been so uncomfortable aswell. Had a tiny bit of spotting yesterday but that’s gone now and wondered if anyone has any similar experiences and ended up with a BFP? By my calculations I am about 8 DPO

Hey sunny daze ...
Your symptoms sound very similar to mine...I am 9dpo today and had brown cm a couple of days ago...been very crampy also, especially today with weird gloopy/yellow ish cm (isn’t it weird when we all say sorry tmi...but actually when I am reading forums I like to know every details ).... I can’t confirm about a bfp but I hope so for both of us

Hi Sunny and welcome!
Your symptoms sound very promising. Spotting could be implantation which normally happens around that time frame 8dpo.
Ive never had implantation spotting...read alot about it from other women tho. I have had the cramps tho....but cramps can also be pms.
I would test in 2 days.

A happy mother's day to all mothers on here and mammas to be

Hey Amystone it’s great to hear someone else with similar symptoms at the same time! I usually get sore boobs/nipples a few days before af but never over a week before and the small bit of spotting it really making me wonder could it have been due to implantation! Fingers crossed for you also!

Thanks ladyship, it’s frustrating when the early pregnancy symptoms are so similar to pms isn’t it! Plus the tww seems to go on for weeks and weeks
