Anyone just starting the TWW..?

Hi all,

Just started the 2WW (I think) as I’m pretty sure I ovulated yesterday/today based on Flo & the bloatedness I’ve had...just wondered if anyone was at the same stage as me and how they were feeling about it all? This is TTC #1 for me xx

It's less obsessive with the OPK's for me because at this point in my cycle I'm all optimistic and positive. It's later in the cycle I get mental and obsessed 🤣🤣🤣

@buntingandstarcharts @lucylondon32
Sure am, starts to feel a bit like de Ja vue doesn't it!! If any of us conceive this month it will mean Christmas babies!! Xx

@lucylondon32 I'm on CD 11 and all over the ovulation sticks. I personally like them because you have your 48 hour window clearly labelled which you can make sure you optimise to the full! Also, I recommend the pre-seed!

lucylondon32 · 04/03/2018 21:01

@buntingandstarcharts yes!! Haha I'm on CM watch, it's CD 8, what else can I do? Are the OPK's a good idea or while I get obsessive like I do with POAS? Xx

@gossipgirl28 @LG88 @lucylondon32 are you gearing up for your special week?

buntingandstarcharts · 25/02/2018 14:33

@lucylondon32 damn AF! This month I am going to attempt using this pre-seed lube I've read about (it looks strange, you insert it via a strange looking syringe thing, into your vag!!) Plus legs in the air (non sexy but may help?) and the ovulation sticks. Also going to DTD only within the 48 hours most fertile time - rather than daily for the week beforehand. Fingers crossed, month 4 of trying! Feels like years 🤣🤣🤣

lucylondon32 · 25/02/2018 08:12

Af is well and truly here this morning! So at least I know where I am. @gossipgirl28 have you tested again? Fingers crossed for you, so frustrating at times isn't it! @LG88 @buntingandstarcharts hope you ladies are ok, at least I know that this is CD1 Star so I've never used OPK's or anything like that, I've always gone off the Flo app, so going to look into all these things! Any help much appreciated! Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 25/02/2018 00:26

@gossipgirl28 maybe you are pregnant but the hormones are too weak at the moment for it to show? and @lucylondon32? I hope so! Maybe the pill has messed up your cycle though? Difficult to say though isn't it, very confusing. Do you girls have any other symptoms? I'd say if you have sore boobs etc then it's a very positive sign. Test again in a few days, I would xxx

gossipgirl28 · 24/02/2018 22:55

@lucylondon32 I'm also 2 days late and BFN (although it wasn't fmu today).

I don't know what's going on. Stopped the mini pill mid Dec and got my first AF 25th jan. Positive OPK on CD14 and cd15 and then a week later I got 3/4 days of v v light spotting/brown flow.

Took at first response 12dpo and its was a bfn. I'm now 16dpo.

LG88 · 24/02/2018 22:53

@lucylondon32 sometimes it takes a while to get a BFP because of low levels of hormones still .. Everything crossed that this is the case for you!! 🤞🤞🤞

Star88 · 24/02/2018 22:24

Very thick whiteish non stretch cm here (sorry tmi overload) I'm guessing I'm out as it's tailing off too... 😣😣😣

buntingandstarcharts · 24/02/2018 21:48

@lucylondon32 that sounds like it could be promising? Is your period very regular? X

lucylondon32 · 24/02/2018 20:11

No AF (2 days late) and a BFN! What is going on?? Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 24/02/2018 18:18

@Hopefulbunny starting 3rd March, though going to try to go wild only in my ovulation 48 hours this time! Just read that if you have sex everyday during the week leading up to it, then you end up reducing sperm quality. You can tell I've thought this throughGrin

Hopefulbunny · 24/02/2018 17:33

When is everyone starting fw? Definitely good to support each other.

MeredithShepherd · 24/02/2018 15:50

Jumping on here, I got a bfp this morning! Not trying so completely unexpected but I felt strange the last few days, a bit cranky and very aware of my womb!! I’ve just started a November antenatal group if there is anyone to join me yet! I think I’m due 5/11

LG88 · 24/02/2018 14:52

Hi @Hopefulbunny, ah sorry to hear it wasn't your month either. Here's hoping we will all have some good news next time around. Yep let's all stay on this thread and catch up again next cycle, it has really kept me going being able to share with you ladies. Xx

Hopefulbunny · 24/02/2018 12:04

Hi ladies, not posted for a while but still here! its a shame AF arrived for lots of us, Af arrived for me as scheduled which in some ways I was happy with because my cycle has now returned to 27 days which it was before my very early miscarriage in Nov so at least that's a good thing.

Would be great to join you all on the following cycle, are we staying on this thread.

LG88 · 23/02/2018 17:04

I am also out as of this afternoon. Probably for the best for me as I have just started a new job. Definitely would love to catch up next cycle @lucylondon32 & @buntingandstarcharts. Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 23/02/2018 14:17

Yes definitely @lucylondon32 Star I will see you on the other side of 99 x bonking sessions! I bought some pre-seed, hoping it does the trick xxxx

lucylondon32 · 23/02/2018 13:56

@buntingandstarcharts I'm sorry to hear this, I'm pretty sure AF will arrive today, hope you're ok xx
Yes let's keep in touch, maybe tag each other in the next thread? Does that work? Xx

buntingandstarcharts · 23/02/2018 10:09

I'm out guys 💔 How are you all? Can we revisit each other next cycle?

buntingandstarcharts · 22/02/2018 09:46

@lucylondon32 how horribly disappointing 😕 I'm so sorry it wasn't a nice clear positive this morning! However, some people only get a positive much later on, so wait and see. Fingers crossed for you and @LG88 xx

LG88 · 22/02/2018 08:06

@lucylondon32 it is just so confusing isn't it. Your not out until AF puts in an appearance though. I think I am feeling a bit crampy this morning so think it's probably on the away for me. Sad xx

lucylondon32 · 22/02/2018 07:31

Definite negative this morning with a FRER :( so I'll go with this one and wait and see when AF turns up xx
