Hello I'm just starting the TWW - test date 12th Feb anyone else want to join me to get through the two weeks together?

Feeling ok today but I'm the most impatient person ever ( i cried when my surge came two days late) so would be great to share the pain of waiting with others/ not look for signs of pregnancy and encourage each other to wait peeing on stick for as long as possible

I'm pregnant! Can't believe this Grin

Tattybogle89 · 11/03/2017 17:06

Omg wow!! Thats amazing. Keep me updated! I'm around 7 days since positve opk. Duno if that counts as ovulation day? My boobs have increased mildly but no pain in them. That happens before period sometimes tho... So not getting hopes up x

ImBreakingBad · 10/03/2017 23:14

Ooh, how exciting! Fingers are crossed for you Grin. I ageee about the new thread. I'm CD29 and I've just got a faint positive! AF isn't due until Monday - I so hope this is it. I'm rushing out tomorrow for a FRER!

Have you any other symptoms? What dpo are you now?

Tattybogle89 · 10/03/2017 22:24

Hi breaking.
Any news? Hope you are well. Dont know whether to start a new thread this one seems to have gone to sleep lol.
Have had a bad migraine and wondering if its a pregnancy symptom.as haven't had one in 5 years...

ImBreakingBad · 05/03/2017 11:18

Tatty, I read the other week because I was concerned about mine too. It says if you have a luteal phase of under 10 days you've to visit your doctor. Maybe see what happens this month and if not visit the doctors? Hope everything is OK. I'm now 8dpo and my boobs have grew 2 sizes out of nowhere Hmm. Fingers crossed! X

Tattybogle89 · 03/03/2017 21:06

Thanks autumn and breaking 😊

I'm a little concerned though.
My cycle was clockwork 28days. I started on seven seas TTC pills last month and my cycle became 30days . I panicked and stopped taking them.
I'm now thinking they were regulating my cycles for good reason.. Because if I have a 28day cycle and I'm ovulating on CD20... That cant ve good right Hmm
So cue me now thinking I have very short luteal phase and therefore a defect that means I wont be able to conceive ..
Lot of scary TTC struggles and miscarriage stories related to short luteal phase online?

Now wishing I had kept up the 7seas pills?

Ah so pleased for you Tatty Grin. Get DTD!!! I OV'd on CD 17 it may just be that you O late! Fingers X'd for you FlowersFlowers x

AutumnEve · 03/03/2017 19:35

Tatty I think ovulation happens 12-24 hours after positive test and then fertilisation is another day after that (please correct me if I'm wrong- I never had bfp and still on a big learning curve!). Sperm can apparently survive up to 5 days after dtd.

Tattybogle89 · 03/03/2017 18:44

aaaargh I just got a Smile smiley on my opk 😊 ridiculously excited to see it! But erm, isn't it too late in my cycle (CD19) to be getting positive? When do we DTD now!? Didn't have sex last night either. Bummer. Havebi missed it do I need to DTD before smiley or after!? Help! Xxx

Tattybogle89 · 03/03/2017 13:10

Hiya breaking,

I'm only using digital clear blue ovulation kit, (not dual hormone one)
And it says on box not to look at lines on the sticks . . Apparantly they aren't read in the same way as a cheapy opk..but surely..its two lines right!? Gotta be the same.
Anyway, the line has been very faint and iv had continued negatives. Getting me down. Yesterday it was slightly darker but nowhere near control line and I had Held my urine in a very long time.
Today I've had EWCM ( cd19)... Of a 28-30 day cycle surely I cant be due to ovulate this late. ?
Il use another test later on and see.

I hope you get good news this month x

ImBreakingBad · 02/03/2017 21:11

Hey Tatty, are you having faint lines or anything else? How are you feeling? I'm now 5dpo. Preying for a miracle this month! X

Tattybogle89 · 02/03/2017 20:07

Thank u thingy. Still no positive opk.. And I'm on CD18... Dunno if I'm doing them wrong or I'm not.ovulating
But expensive to keep.up if nothing showing.

How is everyone doing x

Thingymaboob · 01/03/2017 07:10

Hi tatty. I've never had a positive OPK. But I have been pregnant!

Thingymaboob · 28/02/2017 21:55

I'm 7dpo. Going to do a frer on Saturday. Last time I had a positive 4 days before period due.

Tattybogle89 · 28/02/2017 21:32

Thank you breaking. Still no difference to the lines on opks. And still negatives
Worrying I'm not fertile ever 😢

Feeling shit. Hows everyone else. Quiet on here x

ImBreakingBad · 27/02/2017 17:18

My cycles randomly changed and I got my + on OPK CD18. Keep strong Tatty, the surge is easy to miss. I'd listen to what your body is telling you and try and work with that Flowers x

YessicaHaircut · 27/02/2017 12:11

AF arrived on Friday night Sad

Feeling hopeful though, onwards and upwards xxxx

Tattybogle89 · 27/02/2017 09:08

Feel confused. Negative opk again. Thought these would help me out but they are stressing me out.
I'm passed the halfway through my cycle point and the lines on opk aren't getting any darker at all. They are hardly there. And thats with urine I held all night.
Worried what if I'm not ovulating. Had what I thought was EWCM the other day. 😢

Tattybogle89 · 27/02/2017 07:36

Thank you jessie I guess the more concentrated urine is the better then x

Jessiecat27 · 26/02/2017 23:45

Tatty I've heard if you don't drink anything for three hours you can take a test at anytime but not sure how true that is!

Usernamegone · 26/02/2017 21:37

Just starting the 2 www and want to POAS now but know if will be futile as am 4dpo at most. Hoping I have a longer than 22 day cycle this month!

Tattybogle89 · 26/02/2017 17:38

My cycle is normally 28 days. Which would make AF due on 12th march.. But my last cycle was 30 days randomly. So I guess somewhere between 12-14th march my period is due.
I got a negative opk again today for 2nd day. (CD 14) 😡

ImBreakingBad · 26/02/2017 10:43

I wouldn't think so! I started doing mine after I got home from work, so 6-7 o clock. Once I got quite a dark positive I done morning and night. I think it'd take a couple of cycles to get used to this but hopefully not as you'll be pregnant. When both lines match I'm sure you'll get a smiley. I'm just going to do my last one today to see if I've O'd Grin. Welcoming the 2WW once again. What date is AF due for you? X

Tattybogle89 · 25/02/2017 19:28

Ooh that's good! What time of day do you use? I know people say Morning I best but I cant hold my pee overnight.. I'm always at the loo a few times so did it in afternoon? Does that matter? Also.. I know it says on box to ignore lines on test when you remove sticks out digital.. But, one is clearly fainter than the other.. Do you think itl get darker and when both lines match thats when you get smiley?
I'm thinking to keep an eye on dye getting darker on test sticks even though digital says no...x

ImBreakingBad · 25/02/2017 14:41

Hey Tatty. I got my + on OPK today. DH is just back in town this afternoon so plan to DTD tonight. Absolutely shitting it incase I've missed the chance this month.
