hi there, i agree the TWW is torture! with my 1st pregnancy i had 24 TWW's, this time round we have only been trying for 3 months so far, and this month has been the worst for the TWW, like you im noticing lots of little things, some are unmistakable while others i cant help but wonder if its in my head and also like you i so want to do a test but i know if i do and its a BFN ill just think oh its to early to tell so i'm trying very hard to keep busy and not give in to the temptation i guess time will tell, good luck to you hopefully this is our month lisa

Well today was AF day and nothing yet, and I always wake up on AF day and it is here but nothing and today is nearly over so this is unusal for me, but I was sure on Friday AF would arrive as I was crampy all day but today nothing no cramps at all nothing, but I don't 'feel' like I am preg either so I have no idea what is going on....maybe AF is just running late this month?

oh if only it didn't exist... AF was due today and tonight I've had light cramps, but have also have 'early pregnancy symtoms' the past week like really bad cramps for a couple of days at about 10 DPO, needing to go to the ladies room all the time, and no sign of AF showing up until the cramps tonight (I usually get bad cramps about 2 or 3 days before it shows) and weird things like not being able to get to sleep of a night but I'm so tired ggrrr knowing my luck its all probably in my head but trying to stay positive, so hopefully I get my BFP this month. I hope the same for all you other ladies

I know what you mean ... I have servere bloating, extra cervical mucus, and every night I feel slightly nausea ... I don't want to get my hopes up, but can't help but too! As I am new to this what does AF & BFP abbreviate from? Good luck & hopefully the rest is a positive one

Naw the horrible TWW! I was doing so well this month at not spending a crazy amount of time on the internet reading about early symptoms (which i do every month i'm not sure what it is i'm still looking for lol) but on 10DPO (Fri) I went in for a blood test and was told my progesterone was 46 and I don't need to go on progesterone support, which is the first time I haven't needed to be medicated in the last year of tracking cycles- so i have POAS both Sat and today even though I know it is too early - both BFN! I get a PT done with my bloods tomorrow- have my fingers crossed for everyone!! BABY DUST TO ALL!

Good luck & hopefully the rest is a positive one AF means Aunt Flo (period/menstruation) (see also: George and/or That Evil Thing) BFP means Big Fat Positive (positive home pregnancy test) I remember seeing a list somewhere in the TTC Forum... Don't worry you'll pick up the lingo pretty quickly

I am now TTC after Implanon removal (and keeping it highly secret from the real world!). It's my first 'real' cycle - I had a weird, pseudo-period 2 weeks after removing Implanon and then a proper one 4 weeks after that, although I wasn't really timing sex in that first month. I am about 6dpo - I get pretty definitive physical signs of ovulation, but I haven't been temping or using OPKs so it's still pretty much a guess. My nipples are KILLING me and my already-giant E-cups are feeling heavy. For once I am more comfortable without a bra on! The other thing that is making me hopeful is that my low-grade nausea from the last couple of days has developed into a much higher grade nausea. No actual vomiting yet but it's a close call! I'm the type to get very obsessive and researchy so I'm glad there is a place to vent my thoughts - the DP was a surprise baby himself so he is not at all convinced that it can be hard to conceive! Good luck to all.
