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

yes that’s positive congratulations

LineEyes0801 · 12/02/2018 13:00

There are lines here, aren't there?!

Feel a bit sick but with nerves. 10 or 11 DPO, period due Friday.

I had promised myself I wouldn't test early this time as last month tested super early and had what I think must have been chem or evap. but I have been such a horrible, horrible grouch all weekend I suddenly though hang on... did an OPK first thing and it was really dark so then thought I would try these!

Morning all!

Congrats on all the BFPs! So exciting! I’m on cycle day 33, and haven’t come on as expected. Just bought my first ever FRER & it was blindingly negative. A little sad, but more anxious about where AF is...I know I only came off the pill in Oct, but other than my first period after that I’ve never had a cycle longer than 30 days Sad I’m obviously out, so I’d rather just have that confirmed, so I know where I’m at.

Stay positive @winterwarmers, I barely have any symptoms today, apart from sore bbs which is normal anyway and I’m knackered from not sleeping last night. Otherwise I feel good. Skin has settled down. No more cramps after lots on the weekend.

@fingersxssd83 I didn’t get hip pain but it has been clicking a lot the last week.

Yes @daisymay, it’s really nice to see it on the digital! I just called antenatal and they don’t want to see me until 10 weeks so progressing from 1-2 to 3-4 weeks on clearblue is going to be the only feedback I have for a while (fingers crossed!) and apart from whatever else my body decides to do! Still waiting to pass af date so trying to stay sensible, although I did but a booties knitting book 🙈 just got to remember how to knit!

winterwarmers · 12/02/2018 10:55

i am not going to test again until thursday i keep thinking i feel pregnant then i don’t so if i am honest i have no clue

DaisyMay25 · 12/02/2018 10:51

@ATP1000 I bet it's nice to see it on a digital!

I'm taking part in a research trial for clearblue this month, either I get their new ovulation monitor to use or I'm not allowed to use opks. They tell you when to take pregnancy tests too and I'm not gonna test early! If I can't do opks in just gonna DTD every other day starting CD8 I think

lucylondon32 · 12/02/2018 10:46

@winterwarmers I'm a nightmare once I start POAS! I'm only 5DPO so tying my hands behind my back! Haha x

FingersXssd83 · 12/02/2018 09:13

Had a few sharp shooting pains in my hips last night (both sides). This is unusual for me, have any of you lovely bfp ladies had this at all? Trying to not get my hopes up. AF is due Weds...

winterwarmers · 12/02/2018 08:34

of course i rested at 6dpo even though i said i wouldn’t and of course it was negative😂

lovesrunning · 12/02/2018 06:36

Thanks so much Mimi :) Has af arrived yet or you still in limbo? I did a second test yesterday but didn’t take a pic -oops! It was a digital and said 2-3.

ATP, I think I’m 19dpo which ties in with the test and af was ‘due’ 12 days ago although a bit irreg since off the pill. Docs appt tomo and in the mean time trying not to freak out/shout it at the top of my voice/get excited/wonder if I imagined the whole thing. You?

Mimilicious013 · 12/02/2018 06:26

tests progressing nicely @ATP í½í±í½í±. How exciting seeing the weeks on a digital.

ATP1000 · 12/02/2018 06:04

Cant sleep! 12dpo today or maybe 13dpo. Taken my umpteenth test🙈 I’ve attached the FRER progression over the last 3 days to today.
Also showed up on a clearblue this morning, they really are a lot less sensitive than FRER. This did not work yesterday.

Thanks @mimilicious013 😊

My symptoms yesterday were incredibly sensitive skin on my face. Was using a different moisturiser with no essential oils but it was a basic one and I got a very bright red rash all over my face! Had to wash it off! Fingers crossed that doesn’t happen this morning! Pretty tired generally during the day but think I was making myself go slowly. Also I was awake 3 times last night, got up on the third. Needed a wee each time but have been waiting to take the tests!

How’s it going @lovesrunning? How many dpo are you? Have you past your af date yet?

just one more post of your latest test @lovesrunning. wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy dear.

lovesrunning · 12/02/2018 03:18

PS thanks rosieposies :)

lovesrunning · 12/02/2018 03:17

Likewise from me, it’s been really nice going through the tww together and I really appreciated being able to tell someone as it’s really hard not telling anyone in real life. I’ve got everything crossed for anyone going on the next month’s threads and will keep reading and looking out for familiar names (at the risk of sounding like a stalker) will be willing everyone on! Congrats again all the BFPs X

Mimilicious013 · 12/02/2018 01:14

good luck for next month @rosie Flowers

fx for a sticky bean @ATP, be sure to post another of the tests as they get darker.

anyone else still yet to test this week? fingers crossed

ATP1000 · 11/02/2018 22:54

Thanks @rosieposies, I am a convert to the OPKs, definitely helps to narrow things down. Super good luck for this month x

I’m sorry that af has arrived for some of you this month, I’ve got my fingers crossed for everyone. Thank you for all your support this month. Being able to talk to you all has helped me so much. I’m waiting to get past af due on Wednesday, then I might feel a bit more confident. In the meantime I’m going to take it as easy as I can without anyone guessing at work! X

rosieposies · 11/02/2018 16:04

See you next month too @DaisyMay25 Thanks I got some OPK's for this go x

rosieposies · 11/02/2018 16:02

@Pob13 literally just logged on to say the same thing, she has turned up in spectacular fashion. Oh well time to break out the ibuprofen and wine. Will see you on the March bus!

Congrats everyone with their BFP! Super happy for you @ATP1000 And @lovesrunning ❤️
