Hi everyone!

Could I ask what your first symptoms were and when they started? I had a positive ovulation test last Wednesday and Thursday. So we did our best last week ;-)

Thanks in advance!!

    I’ll keep following. I tested positive last Wednesday (and probably also on Tuesday, but I only started testing on Wednesday).

    Now I’m really feeling my breasts...

    Looks like you guys still haven't received an answer
    Shall I share my experience real quick

    With my daughter, I had (stabbing) pains in my belly a few days after ovulation, and they pretty much stayed that way until I was 2.5 months along. The pain was so bad that I had to place cherry pits to fall asleep at night!:angry So it was pretty clear something was going on, even though it doesn't happen that often for that pain to persist.

    The 2nd one ended in a miscarriage I only had symptoms after a positive pregnancy test.

    With my current pregnancy, 4 days after ovulation I had a hellish pain in my uterus for about an hour or so (implantation), and from the next day on my breasts were noticeably bigger! And they keep growing day by day And also a stronger sense of smell even before the positive pregnancy test.

    Hopefully this helps you guys out!

    When can you test??
    Good luck! X

    MyBabyAndMe, thanks for sharing your experience.
    Congratulations on your pregnancy!!

    So I've had bleeding since Friday night, and yesterday (Sunday) it was already much less. Up to now, no clots either, and my breasts are still bothering me.

    My period was supposed to be on July 26th or 27th if we weren't pregnant, so now I have no idea if implantation is still possible or if the period is just (too) early.
    I'll see how long the bleeding lasts and otherwise start doing ovulation tests again in a few days.

    10 days.
    I took my first OP test on July 13th and it was positive, then negative on July 14th so probably started testing a day too late, didn't do any more tests after that. My period should normally be around July 26-27.

    Today I barely lost a drop of blood... But last month I had that too, a few days of bleeding, one day not, then a few days again.

    Wouldn't it be handy if we could look inside ourselves

    The test you shared is below 40% for me (still in the red) but I'm having a bad day today so maybe I didn't indicate everything correctly (things that might be yes). Little sleep, stuffy and warm at the office which gives me a headache and makes me feel nauseous,...

    I suspect it’s just my period after all, as expected. I got bleeding today.
    When I restart testing, do I count the days from the first day of my period or from when it ends?

    Oh, sorry!
    You count from the first day of your period. So if your total cycle is 28 days, you'll have your ovulation around day 14.
    I usually start testing 3 days before my expected ovulation, so I don't miss it
    Good luck!

    Yeah well, this time it's clear again that my cycle unfortunately isn't as regular as it used to be...
    Nice...

    If I count with my last cycle, I should start on Monday.
    But can you really not pee for 4 hours before the test? That's 4 hours of torture for me (even at night)

    Hi everyone,
    For my master's thesis at the University of Antwerp, I'm researching baby naming.
    Since you're all so active (or were) with this, I'd like to ask if you'd be willing to fill out the survey below. Unfortunately, I can't offer you anything except huge karmic points!
    Thanks in advance!
