TWW - 8 DPO

Thanks girls :)

@Caspianberg I think you're in for a chance in day 13!!

Yes my dh was also alway in june until day 13 in cycle so likely missed it if early here

Oh wow @CatLover210 that's absolutely fantastic news. I'm so glad your wait is over! This is only our first go and because of partner being away it is a LONG shot so I'll be ok. Can't see me enjoying this waiting thing every month though.
I use OPK to help along with my tracker app and noticing my cervical fluid changes too.

Have fun surprising your partner!!!!

Hey Ladies

I’m 12 or 13 dpo today and I got my BFP!!

I’m in shock ! I don’t know how to feel! I want this baby so bad but it’s not sinking into my brain yet!! My hands are shaking as I’m typing this haha.

I did the test 15 mins ago (couldn’t sleep) but I think I’m gonna go gym to clear my brain (gym is my happy place) and as my gym is in town there’s a few things I wanna get in order to surprise my partner....

Hope the CB screen stays positive for a while???

@wineymummy I live in the middle of nowhere really, so the only way to get tests easily is to get delivered from the UK. Hence im probably stuck with these semi duff ones for a while.
Ah well, Maybe its just too early or not this time around

How frustrating Caspian. Sounds good though with the spotting? Fingers crossed!

I also tested today... Straight away I could see the line but it disappeared to almost nothing. It's a real squinter with no hint of pink so I've no idea if it's a BFP or an evap. I'll have to get a proper test today I think.

I did a few tests this morning.
I think they were negative so far, but only one seemed to work.. One strip basic stayed completely blank ie no control line either, so did another, control line appeared slowly but no other, then did a regular window test where no control line appeared either within the 3 mins, and then just control line appeared after 20+ minutes.

Should be 13dpo

So I assume nada.
However, I had had some browny disharge (TMI), since Thursday evening. I thought it was AF but it would have been be 4-5 days early, and hasn't developed into anything. So no idea. If no full AF arrives, might test again Monday.

@CatLover210 I have my fingers crossed for your test later.

I'm 11dpo today ad think I'm out 😕. Temp is still high, RHR dropped by one though and I had a small bit of spotting last night. I'm gutted.

We are DTD at the correct times, both taking supplements and it's just not happening. Been TTC 10months now and all I have to show is heartache from a MC back in April. I don't know what else to try. You are supposed to be more fertile after MC and I'm obviously not.

@AliceRR When I got my first BFP with the pregnancy I didn't keep I found out at the doctors. I went in cause I thought I had thrush and they wanted to do a pregnancy test too for some reason. The pregnancy was caught early then too so although clearer than the test I took last night it was still faint. I made the doctor do FIVE more tests because I thought her tests were faulty.
I'm visiting my parents tonight after work and my partner has a work event tonight so I just wanna focus on my day today and try not to think about it. If the CB confirms tomorrow morn I will tell him tomorrow. :D
'Try not to think about it' yet I've spent all night tossing and turning in case my AF does arrive and maybe it's a chemical because I tested too early... TTC is not very fun nor relaxed is it??

@ItAllStartedHere That's a shame your boyfriend was away during your window. Did you use OPKs this month to determine your fertile window?
I started taking folic acid less than 4 weeks ago now (day or two after I got my period this cycle) and I might have a BFP (my pics are earlier in the thread) so I'm wondering if that helped me??

This is my first TWW and I'm finding it difficult not to think about it.
I'll be honest and say I think we missed the window of conception (my boyfriend was in France, alright for some) but there's a slim chance.
I guess it's a good way of getting used to this feeling!

Good luck everyone.

@AliceRR Well let me know if AF arrives!

I don’t believe it yet still... I’ll wait til Saturday and do a CB !

Hi @AliceRR

How’s the spotting? Has it gotten heavier or is it the same?

And wow I’m so sorry 😔. I couldn’t imagine the pain of going through a stillborn. You’re so strong for coming out the other end. If you ever need to chat please message me ❤️.

I know I said I wasn’t gonna test but I was in Poundland (as you do lol) and I just felt the need to buy their £1 test. My way of thinking was ‘I know I’m not so I just want to see it for myself so I can stop obsessing over it’ (I struggle with OCD).

Well I got a faint line that was clear to see with my eyes but wouldn’t pick up on camera so I’ve used the pregnancy test checker app to show the line. Do you think this is actually positive? I’m not sure how to feel!!!!

Had the tiniest bit of brown mixed in my discharge when I wiped before in the toilet. Wouldn't have seen it if I wasn't looking for anything different

Still holding out here to test. I think i will try Saturday morning. Only have those cheap strip tests here

@AliceRR I have to hang my head in shame. I tested on an internet cheapie yesterday and this morning (9 &10 dpo) and both bfn 😕

@AliceRR Well I don't tend to spot before AF so it probably doesn't mean anything for me.

I usually get cramps out of nowhere that feel like utter hell and I either come on instantly or know I'll come on in the next hour or two.

I'll raise an eyebrow if it isn't here by Saturday as like I said it should be tomorrow. I'll be even more surprised if it doesn't show by Sunday.

I just feel like it isn't meant to happen again for me. I had my one chance in the past and it was completely unplanned and I made the decision to terminate. It was the right decision for me but for some reason I have it in my head I won't be able to conceive again.

Hey girls

Due on tomorrow but not gonna test til Sunday (if I haven't already came on that is) as I might be on a 28 day cycle this month instead of a 26.

I give up trying to symptom spot! I've had strong signs this month but I know that 'symptoms' in the 2WW tend to mean nothing!

At the moment I have:

• on and off funny feelings in boobs and heavy feeling (but not painful anymore like they were during the week after ovulation)
• on and off mild constipation (this was constant and painful for 5 days after ovulation)

• i'm really wet which is not norm for me this late in my cycle. At gym last night I had to keep going to the loo cause I felt a lot of wetness and was worried it'd be showing through my leggings haha!
• I started cramping yesterday (10-11dpo) and this has been on and off and I'm still experiencing it. It's mild, not accompanied with any spotting or brown discharge, and it doesn't feel like menstrual cramps. But hey, what do I know!
