I have 11 days before af is due - we only dtd on cd6 and I have a 29 day cycle so I am not holding out much hope, but still symptom spotting if anyone wants to join me in the craziness of ttc !

I'm in the TWW now, about 5dpo so AF due around 5th June. Desperate to POAS even though I know it's quite probably negative 🙈

Hi ladies, 8 days until af due for me, currently 7DPO and time feels at a standstill! I have already poas a couple of times but obviously too soon even if I was pregnant. I’m planning on testing on Wednesday! Fingers crossed for you all xx

Af is due on the 8th but I have my mum visiting that weekend, if I’m having any signs, I may do a frer on the Wednesday/Thursday so I can get my head around the results and relax while they’re visiting. I think it’s highly unlikely for me this time but it doesn’t stop me wondering what if ......,
Fx we all get the results we’re after!

Af due on Saturday, currently 8dpo and symptom spotting like crazy and dying to test but I know it’s too soon and just can’t deal with a bfn. This is my last month trying then I’m giving up on the idea for a while I think, it’s too draining getting your hopes up every month.. sorry bit negative just hate the 2ww🙃😩

Don’t worry @peggyssue I’m with you. I’m also 8dpo but pretty much symptomless. Feeling a bit fed up and despondent this month tbh. Fingers crossed for everyone.

peggysue ttc is an emotional rollercoaster, I hope that this is your month!

With my 3 children, my first sign was veiny boobs, dark nipples and a metal taste so I knew before testing. Yesterday I noticed veiny boobs but I’m still bf my youngest and I don’t know whether they’ve always looked like it and I haven’t noticed before Confused I keep telling myself that there is no chance this month, only dtd on cd6 but the possibility still takes over and it’s all I seem to be thinking about ! Frustrating isn’t it x

@peggysue it’s so frustrating, I go a bit crazy in the tww. FX for you this month x

I find myself completely obsessed with all things conception and pregnancy!

What’s everyone doing to keep busy over the next few days? I’m working today and tomorrow and going away on Saturday so hoping that’ll distract me a little! Hoping af stays away!! Xx

I’ve got work this morning, oh and the kids are off this week so will possibly go out for a walk later. The 3 kids keep me physically busy - hence the tidyhomewannabe title, there’s always something to do, but my mind will keep wandering off! May try and sort dd dance costumes, they need alterations so that may help me completely concentrate on something else xx

It's so hard isn't it ladies?? I'd love to be one of these people who finds out they're pregnant at like 9 weeks (happened to my friend - she thought she'd developed a dairy intolerance!!)
I'm now 5DPO and time feels like it's at a stand still, but I know I'll be testing early as soon as I know there's a slight chance! X

hoping I can join you :)
depending on whether I go from when my withdrawal bleed was I could be due Friday if not Monday.
So convinced somethings going on though. Strange taste in mouth, boobs are HUGE and I'm used to big boobs but these just feel different lol. Xx

Thank you, 9dpo today but holding out until at least Thursday to test my partners working away so will be alone and won’t be able to resist.

I’m working mornings today and tomorrow and have ALOT of housework to get down so at least that’ll keep me busy for the next couple of days, lots of early nights so the days go faster🙈😂

It really is so hard. I feel this whole journey has really changed me. With my DD I unexpectedly fell pregnant at 19 and DH 21. DH and I focused on her, work and getting married. Hence the big age gap (she’s 9 now and an absolute dream) I can’t get my head around how difficult TTC is and the heartache that comes with it! I had a miscarriage in May last year and nothing since. I’ve been reading lots about TTC, using apps, tracking CM. Spent a year just ‘seeing what happens’ but only obsessingly TTC for a few months! Feels like forever! How long have you all been TTC? xx

I'm feeling mega nauseous today... praying it's super early symptoms, as I was real sick with both previous pregnancies from early on!
I lost my first baby at 9 weeks to a MMC, and then our little girl was born sleeping at 20 weeks in Feb.
Both times we have fallen in the first cycle of trying, and so I'm hopeful we'll manage soon this time too, but for me personally I know that a positive pregnancy test is the start of a very long road.
Good luck everyone! Xx

Sorry to hear about your loses. I’ve had a few symptoms but don’t wanna get my hopes up as they’re all so similar to af symptoms..

I’ve been actively trying for just over a year now, it does become quite an obsession and then you get people saying just relax and stop thinking about it and it’ll happen- if only it was that easy lol

@MrsLCW fingers a crossed it's an early sign and third time lucky for a baby to take home.

@Peggyssue you have more self control than I do!

Peggyssue · 29/05/2018 14:41

I have no self control lol, I tested at 7dpo I don’t know why cos it was obviously going to be negative, I think the reason I’m putting it off so much is because i don’t wan to see another bfn
