don't know whether to laugh or cry. At least it's 4 days closer to next window!
negative test though so at this point it’s just getting annoying and I want this cycle over with
Yep. 100% this. I’ve had so many symptoms that I’ve never had before (or maybe just never even noticed because I wasn’t TTC before). Metallic taste in my mouth, vivid dreams, back pain, bigger boobs, nausea…everything but the positive pregnancy test 🥲Anyone just get fed up with feeling like their body is playing tricks on them? 11dpo today I've had bad lower back pain nearly all day now it started at 9dpo and came back today but 10x worse. Back pain is very rare for me the only pms signs I get is increased hunger and mood changes. I've tested and there isn't even a smidge of a line. I was still testing negative days after my period was due with my first pregnancy but I'm just not feeling hopeful this time. Period could come any day now as it varies just want to get started on the next cycle
God ain’t this the truth. When I was pregnant last year at around 9dpo I woke up with a very strong metallic taste in my mouth. My dreams were absolutely wild, like I dreamt twice i had a positive pregnancy test among just other madness and my boobs were sooo itchy. These were all so out of the ordinary for me that I did suspect I was pregnant before i tested after my period was late. Then after my loss each lead up to my period brought these exact symptoms, so afterwards I couldn’t help but get my hopes up but each month my period arrived. That’s why I had to take a couple of months out because my head was wrecked. It’s so weird, like your body knows what you want and just decides to be a dick.
i think I should’ve started yesterday looking at my charts. negative test though so I think my body is just taunting me at this pointI think it’s a combination of stress and new supplements for me, but I’m not really sure!
Is that a pregnancy test or an opk? If it’s a pregnancy test it’s positive
Sorry yes pregnancy test
I’m not testing, I’ll live in my delusional little head until AF arrives 
I’m wondering this exact same thing. I’ve had very weird symptoms in the last few months trying and I really wonder if the sperm is meeting the egg but it’s just not working to the stage of it growing the follicle etc.
It depends on how old you are - I think if you’re over 35 the advice is to see a doctor after 6 months, but if you’re under 35 they won’t really do anything until it’s been a year (at least mine won’t)
My view is more information is better. I got bloods done at the GP which was super helpful to understand whether I was actually ovulating. I think if you have had a first child with ease there are issues around getting IVF funding. But if I were you I’d start small and get as much data as you can just so you know where you stand.
This would upset me so much. Even if they aren’t trying to be insensitive I just wish people would think more before they speak about this sort of thing. I had a ‘friend’ say to me last year how she was pleased she was still in her 20s when she had her kid so was still considered young, basically having a dig at me not having a kid by my 30s. It still cuts me to this day and really made me question the friendship. If people haven’t had a struggle with TTC they genuinely just don’t understand the heartache that comes with it.
