TTC October anyone want to join 😊

Morning ladies

AF arrived last night. Had a real night feeling sorry for myself.

I really thought it would be this month but I’m learning not to get my hopes up!

Good luck to everyone else 😘😘 I hope it happens for each and every one of you!

@Dosmamas I was originally planning to POAS tomorrow (10dpo - AF due on Sat) but I'll try hold off because it's still a bit early. I've got a busy week at work so hopefully that will keep me distracted!

Like you said, I'm so glad to have others to talk about this with! DH just doesn't understand the obsession!

Hope your TWW goes smoother this month! It's so easy to start symptom spotting and making a big deal about the smallest thing. Fingers crossed for you and everyone else! 😊🤞🏽

@Abzi91 fingers crossed for you, what day will you test do you think!!?

@Decgal88 fingers crossed hun 😁, I honestly feel so good having people to talk to about this TWW (and everything else) we have promised not to tell ANYONE anything until we are pregnant and it is so exciting I feel like I'm keeping the biggest secret I could explode.

@Rightnow1245 maybe you just had a prolonged surge? DTD tonight, if AF comes this month you'll regret not making the most of your FW (and I want a few POAS buddies for the TWW) We just got home from DTD (I'll use that as well, even though it's doing the donation 😝) our sample was so small compared to lasts month. I guess that's funny cause you girls won't know how much does go in there right? We are going again tomorrow and I will push for Wednesday, we got our first ever flashing smiley today so we will make the most of the longer time and try get three donations in.

Officially on the the TWW as of now. No symptom spotting for us though, last month it caused a massive row. Partly because my partner refused to talk to me about anything fertility/symptom related and I thought that was selfish as we are both on the journey not just her and secondly because her TWW crosses over into my PMS week from hell and I turn into a nasty horrible bitch 😖 xox

Fingers cossed to all of us please update on here ladies if you do a test i might be good and wait until AF is due but i cant promise anything

@Cloclopops I've been so tempted to take a test as well.. bought some cheapies at Poundland yesterday and they keep calling to me! Fingers crossed you'll get the BFP by the end of the week! I agree, it's going to be a really long week😫

@Rightnow1245 yeah I should definitely be covered! Just wanted some cuddles 🙈😂
Sorry can't help with the OPKs as I've never used them before! Hope you've managed to get an answer - does seem confusing!!

@decgal88 yes fingers crossed AF stays away! I've been getting sore boobs too which is unusual for me. Yesterday i was getting really sharp pains in my left boob and af style cramps but only on the left side 🤔 so no idea what's going on there. My friend is coming to stay with me this week and she is just as desperate for me to get a positive test so I think she may convince me to do one on wedneday 😂 but after that I'll be good and wait until af is due... probably.

@Rightnow1245 you know I have heard of OPK's being able to indicate a positive pregnancy! I don't understand though, if you thought you were going to ovulate it would make sense you got a positive OPK? 🧐

@Cloclopops i am the same AF due next Friday or Sat really hope it doesnt show fingers crossed for us!! i was soo tempted to do a teat on Friday had it out snd everytging but resisted as i knew it was too early!! ahh long week ahead lol

Ps I only got a static smiley yesterday, no flashing smiley at all. Is that weird?
I see a lot of talk about flashing smileys!

@Dosmamas yes we will be dtd today! I haven't done my OPK today yet, but I hope there's still a smiley!

Hey ladies how are you all feeling today? I caved and took a test... bfn of course! I don't know why I do this to myself I'm only 9dpo 🙈 I've been getting af style cramps but only on the left side so fingers crossed that's a sign of implantation? Or just wishful thinking 😂 af is due Sunday so it's going to be a longgg week for me

good morning ladies wow lots to catch up on! so i just wanted some advice AF is due end if next week i have had sore BB’s since the start of last week right up until now, they do usually get sore but only last a few days week max just wondered if anyone has experienced this before??

@Rightnow1245 testing three times, annoyingly my partner never remembers the first wee of the day so first test is usually 11, 15 and then bed time. Last month this happened...nothing and then no flashing smiley, just the static. Strange. I am trying to google why it could happen.

@Rightnow1245 ooh yay, does look like a positive! Enjoy DTD!! Sounds like you should be covered with your plan 🙊😊
My husband has caught a horrible flu and is staying away from me 😫😂

@bunhead34 ahh how frustrating that he's away, but I still think you should be okay for this month! The sperm can live for up to 7 days, so you should be covered and then you're DTD tomorrow, as well.

I've been getting little twinges all days but I don't know if it's because I ate too much or it may be cramps.. overthinking!🙈

What thermometers do you guys use for BBT? I'm on amazon and they all have crap reviews? Looking for one under £15

@Rightnow1245 you have done well this week DTD, fingers crossed 🤞🏼

@Rightnow1245 in fertile window, still using OPKS but as yet nothing, not even a faint line. Hopefully tomorrow or Monday
