I'm just starting the dreaded TWW and could use some company. All the other threads on this seem to have reached the testing stage already.

I am 2-3 dpo and planning to test on 4 March. We have been TTC for about 18 months and are getting fertility treatment. I am pretty sure I ovulated this month though, so I have have high hopes for this cycle.

So the instructions say only to read after 5 mins and I have and there is deffo something there. If I end up with af after all this then the company I got the IC from won't know what hit them 😂. I have 2 frers but gonna hold off a few more days Grin

boatrace30 · 26/02/2017 19:38

grumpy - what dpo did your first test on?

Andysgirl15 · 26/02/2017 19:33

So after the ewcm I decided to do an opk and it's quite clearly negative. So after only a 2 hour hold I decided to do and IC and I swear there is the faintest of faint lines on it. Gonna try in morning aswell. It's that faint I really can't tell if it has colour and has to be held in certain lights. Why oh why do I do this to myself so peed off with myself right now 😠

TheGrumpySquirrel · 26/02/2017 18:28

After the squintiest of squinters the last 2 days I've run out of tests and have ordered more on Amazon, they are arriving Tuesday 28th so looks like I'll next test on 1 march ..

boatrace30 · 26/02/2017 18:03

Sorry buddah. Is there any chance it is implantation bleeding (sorry I know that's not helpful). But with DD I thought I'd had AF and actually went out and got quite drunk. Then when I felt really really sick on day 3 of my "hangover" I poas on a whim and it was positive! Now I never trust I'm out when AF arrives. Which is a pain and not healthy!!

Andysgirl15 · 26/02/2017 17:53

Oyster my DD lifted my top up other day and said aww baby, something she hasn't done since I was PG with DS. freaked me out 😂

Oysterbabe · 26/02/2017 17:28

Oooo that's interesting! I had some the other day too, I'll add that to my list of reasons I'm definitely pregnant 😂
My weirdest one is my toddler randomly decided she hated me the other day, crying and reaching for daddy when I picked her up. She definitely senses I'm carrying the rival for attention and is unhappy about it Wink

Andysgirl15 · 26/02/2017 16:53

So TMI bit went to the loo and noticed a small amount of EWCM so I googled the crap out of why it's happening after I have definitely 100% ovulated and apparently in happens around half way through the 2ww due to a surge in estrogen and progesterone thickening the uterus in preparation for implantation. So here I sit getting really excited wondering if we've only gone and done it on the first try Grin

Buddah101 · 26/02/2017 16:13

Sorry forgot to add congrats to those getting their BFP's! Im not even due on for another 3 days so what a slap in the face! BFN and I get it early! at least i dont have the few more days of wondering though.

Buddah101 · 26/02/2017 16:11

Well Im out this month, af arrived this morning. Although as usual can't help symptom spot and I've had none of the usual symptoms of pmt. I can always guarantee 1 blow up day where dp dares breathe by me and I'll just give him the look, but this time nothing. I truly thought I was pg, even had the tingly nipples which is always a sure sign with me. No huge pmt spot either, just nothing now but a headache!

HopefullyDothButterNoParsnips · 26/02/2017 15:39

Can I join please ladies? I'm due to test on 6 March. Not had any real symptoms except tingly nipples so far. But still only DPO4 so there's probably nothing really going on just yet. Not sure how I'll hold out to the 6th!

NotQuiteJustYet · 26/02/2017 15:37

Hi all,

Can i join here too?

26
Ttc #1
5DPO
Cycle 1 (officially, we've been somewhat lax in the protection department for a couple of months before)

I need somewhere to keep me sane until I can test - which Ovia reckons is in 7 days, but AF isn't due for another 9 days.

boatrace30 · 26/02/2017 13:47

Congratulations any! Great news!!
Actino, sounds a lot like the bleeding I had with DD1 which was definitely implantation. Fx. Andys you've tempted me to test again tomorrow (6dpo). But I know I shouldn't.

And as for hot baths, I really wouldn't worry, will be absolutely fine at this stage!

stephylou87 · 26/02/2017 11:43

Congratulations on your BFP any xxx

AnyFarrahFowler · 26/02/2017 10:28

Thanks so much everyone Grin
Hope to see you all over on the pregnancy boards very soon! X

ethelfleda · 26/02/2017 10:17

My phone added satsooma at the end of congratulations!! Wtf??

ethelfleda · 26/02/2017 10:16

anyfarrah congratulationsatsooma! Made up for you!
Actino that sounds very promising!
Andys do another in the morning and show us!! And bloody good luck on your driving test. I'm sure you'll pass Smile

Andysgirl15 · 26/02/2017 09:26

Congratulations anyfarrahfowler.

Boatrace. I have pcos and I use opk every month with no problems. So they might be worth a try. They have always been right for me.

So I'm 6dpo and I'm bored so you know what that means.....yep I POAS and I know it's early but I really do see a shadow of a line. Maybe my eyes are starting to play tricks because I want to be pregnant that bad haha

Anyway in other news I'm currently sat here crapping myself as I have my driving test tomorrow and I really can't fail as I need a car for when I go back to work as my place of work is in the middle of nowhere and 2 children in childcare etc. Breathe andysgirl breathe Grin

dangle90 · 26/02/2017 09:09

Congrats any!!! Xxx

Oysterbabe · 26/02/2017 09:06

Congratulations on the BFP! I hope to see you over in Pregnancy shortly Smile

Firsttimeandclueless · 26/02/2017 08:58

I had a hot bath last night, wouldn't worry about it too much :)

Oh AnyFarrah I can se that too! Congrats!!! xx

AnyFarrahFowler · 26/02/2017 08:52

Ethel - I had a hot bath last night, I wouldn't worry about it x

dangle90 · 26/02/2017 08:50

Actino could be implantation! Fx!
Ethel I read this too but thought same as you surely that's a bit ott, so just kept having baths coz I love them! Maybe I shouldn't?! X

AnyFarrahFowler · 26/02/2017 08:49

Well, it's a bit of a squinter as it's still really early, but it's positive!! I can't believe it!
I tested FMU then took DS in to see DH in bed. I put the stick so it was poking out of the top of DS' sleepsuit and said "X has something he wants to tell you".
We're over the moon Grin
Fingers crossed for everyone over the coming couple of weeks - can't wait to hear about your BFPs too!

PS yes I need to dust my windowsill Blush

TWW - anyone else testing in early March?
actino · 26/02/2017 08:46

Soooo, I am 6 DPO and woke up to reddish spotting, and had brownish spotting yesterday. Could this be anything??

It's not normal for me to spot mid-cycle and I have no AF symptoms (and I get pretty bad menstruation symptoms normally)

Apologies if you have now started your Sunday morning with TMI :)
