Hi all,

TWW starts now (again) so wondered if anyone wanted to join me with the constant symptom spotting 😂😂

AF due on 9th Feb - is anyone in the same boat?

*test

Michellebops · 02/02/2019 14:57

@Beaubailey I'm the same.
I've promised myself I'll hold on but I'm so anxious and want to rest now.
I ovulated between Sunday and Tuesday so I know it's far too early however in my head I know I got a BFP on 4th August last year 10 days before af due. Sadly I miscarried in August.

I keep looking for symptoms- for me it's an itchy scalp and tender nipples.

Fingers crossed 🤞

@Beaubailey morning to you too! Yeah I would be lying if I said I wasn't curious before AF is due to test but i think I'm gonna hold out. Unless I get a symptom VERY different from the usual ones I get before AF. Very tempting isn't it 😂

Let's hope we get lucky! 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Morning @CaramelCluster

Well I've promised myself this month to wait until AF but I don't know if I can do it 😂😂

I feel like I just set myself up for disappointment otherwise, but there's always a tiny thought that it might end up positive haha

How about you? Xx

CaramelCluster · 02/02/2019 09:16

Hey @Beaubailey I'm almost at the halfway point, I feel no different at all. Still early days though, so let's hope we start seeing/feeling things next week!

You chosen when you're going to test? Or are you going to wait until AF doesn't show?

Beaubailey · 02/02/2019 08:30

Hey everyone!

How's everyone doing? I'm officially half way through this bloody wait and it is dragging like mad! Keep trying to symptom spot lol but nothing, just feel suuuuuper moody 😯 finding DH really annoying lol.

I dreamt I had a bfp last night so hope that's a sign haha. Bloody baby events on everywhere too I just wish I could buy stuff!

@HayleyD84 thanks for the welcome and for sharing your experience. I had what I believe were ovulation cramps at cd13 so assume that that was my day but will try to keep at it for a few more days just in case Smile

BackAwayFatty · 31/01/2019 20:33

I'm the same, AF due on the 9th. This is my 2nd cycle after a MMC. TTC no 2. Fingers crossed there's lots of BFP's.

HayleyD84 · 31/01/2019 12:15

@coconutlatte44 hi and welcome to the TWW.

With my first pregnancy I didn't use ovulation test for a while and went by the apps. I'm a 28 day cycle and the app said I ovulated on CD14.

Nothing was happening so I brought some ovulation tests and I actually ovulate on CD18 Shock so i'm glad I brought them as we stopped DTD around CD15.

And I tend to ovulate on cd18 every month. The first month I used them I got pregnant with my son so I swear by them.

I'm currently on cycle 2, this TWW kills me LOL

xxxxx

coconutlatte44 · 31/01/2019 10:51

Hi everyone,
I'm officially on my first TWW, also due around the 14th of feb. Either 1dpo or 3 depending on if I go by my own instinct or my apps' - not doing any testing yet.

Feeling fairly relaxed about it at the moment but sure that will change as we get closer!

Good luck to everyone!

Michellebops · 31/01/2019 10:09

So I'm 2 dpo, due to a sick toddler we only managed to dtd 3 times , Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

Don't hold out much hope for this month at all 😢

HayleyD84 · 29/01/2019 22:00

@Beaubailey it is so far away :( and I ovulate late so I'm only 1dpo too.

It's hard not to wish the time away and become a bit obsessed lol X

RightOh · 29/01/2019 17:24

I had nosebleeds with my DS so you never know!

Don't tell me that, it just encourages me! Grin Grin Grin

Beaubailey · 29/01/2019 17:12

Hi @HayleyD84 @RightOh

@HayleyD84 you're just about the same as me! AF due 9th Feb... seems like sooooo far away!

@RightOh I had nosebleeds with my DS so you never know! I know what you mean about the tests, I'll be doing my best this month to stick it out until AF due (but I know I will crumble and test as soon as I can)

Baby dust to us all! Xx

RightOh · 29/01/2019 16:56

Hello all!

8dpo today.
AF due: 4th Feb
Cycle: 20

I've been having nosebleeds the past two days - only minor ones. Apart from that, feeling really good. And feeling decidedly non-pregnant. Didn't stop me testing! Doh! Of course, BFN. It's WAY too early. Can't help it :) Someone take my tests away...

HayleyD84 · 29/01/2019 16:50

Hi can I join please Smile

I am on the TWW train.

1DPO
AF due: 8th Feb
Cycle: 2
TTC: #2

The TWW drives me crazy!! LOL

CaramelCluster · 29/01/2019 15:56

Ha! Guys are weird with things like that aren't they? My OH looked at it for a good minute thinking is this definitely right...But said it felt like any standard lube, so think we'll stick to that if we are in the same situation next month.

Explorers10 · 29/01/2019 12:37

@caramelcluster

Same I’m just using the lube. Funny my DH didn’t like it. He said he was expecting a fancy bottle like durex and said it looked like medicine Grin

Michellebops · 29/01/2019 09:43

Can I join you please?

Using flo app I'm due to ovulate in 2 days with Aunt Flo due 15th feb.

I had a missed miscarriage in October and started trying again last month.

CaramelCluster · 28/01/2019 23:26

@Explorers10 it's been good so far so let's see if it registers a consistent higher temp - if it does then possibly I could be pregnant 😁

Yeah I did indeed use conceive plus - I used the normal tube and not the applicator, thought it'd be just as effective...well let's hope so anyways 😅

@Beaubailey doesn't sound mean at all! And only 2-3 months in?! Wow....very early days. Couldn't imagine going through a massive step like this 3 months into being with someone.

@SadieSue29 you never know, could be perfect timing by the sounds of it, will keep my fingers crossed for you! 🤞🏽

SadieSue29 · 28/01/2019 22:42

TTW here also, due the 8th Feb according to glow.

My partner works away and wasn't due to be home however ended up home for a day the day before ovulation. So not holding out for much hope this month.

Wish I could just put it out of my mind and only think about it if period is late :(

Beaubailey · 28/01/2019 22:37

Also, I know this is gonna sound mean and I don't mean it to - but my brother in laws (very) new girlfriend (I'm talking 2-3 months) announced her pregnancy a couple of weeks ago and it's completely done my head in! She's obv unaware of our situation and that we've been trying since nov 15 and had 3mcs in total, I'm happy that there will be a new baby in the fam but the other side of me is like ffs how!! like a kick in the teeth ☹️ xx

Explorers10 · 28/01/2019 22:34

@caramelcluster

I thought the thermometer thing was a bit rubbish! Thanks for letting me know about what you are using, sounds very sophisticated! Just read further up you used conceive plus, me too! Did you use just the lube and/or the applicators?

Beaubailey · 28/01/2019 22:32

I think I might try tracking bbt next month if I'm out this cycle - although I'll probably be useless and forget most days! xx
