I got my positive OPK yesterday so think ovulation is today CD 14 so bang on schedule.

I'm 29 and TTC first baby. On cycle 3 now and already stressed something might be wrong 😭

Any one else just starting their TWW?

This is a better pic. I was actually shaking when I took the first one 🤣

I am shaking. I don't know what made me test. This came up within a minute. I am shaking. 😳 xx

@Bumpingalong84 officially 7 I think. Had a loss early on. I don't know why I'm so negative this month! I'm worried it's because I'm that little bit older now. And I had a lot of treatment last year for a abnormal smear. Xx

Bumpingalong84 · 08/09/2019 21:08

Ohh @Alice8688 I’m so sorry. What cycle are you on?

Alice8688 · 08/09/2019 17:46

Bless you. Thank you. I defo feel out. I am having textbook af signs. All on the same days for each symptom (I record on my app each month). It's getting very disheartening 😔 xx

Bumpingalong84 · 08/09/2019 13:22

Ohh @Alice8688 I’m sorry, your not out till AF shows up.

I’m still in disbelief and anxiety is creeping in after our mmc. Will just have to take it a day at a time, it’s still super early days.

@Bumpingalong84 congratulations! This is exciting xxx

Alice8688 · 08/09/2019 08:24

@Bumpingalong84 yay! That's amazing! That's such a clear line! Is there any chance you could have ov'd early? I'm so so pleased for you 🥰

No symptoms other than af ones (exactly the same as every month 😔) so I'm not getting my hopes up. I've been away this weekend which has been somewhat of a distraction. But I think I'll give it a couple more months then stop with the "planning" and just see how it goes. Xxx

Bumpingalong84 · 08/09/2019 07:55

I caved and tested this morning! Faint bfp at 9dpo so scared but excited!

@Bumpingalong84 I'm only a few DPO. It would be tight, for sure. I just need to get another job ASAP and put the TTC on hold until then.

Bumpingalong84 · 05/09/2019 20:47

Ahh @Alice8688 that sounds like more that enough. Any symptoms today?

I’ve had some milk cramps and lots of CM, think my boobs are a little tender but don’t know if I’m just looking for things now 😩 6dpo!

@EmmaOvary god that’s so tough, I’m so sorry. How far into your tww are you? Would it really be that tight financially if you were?

EmmaOvary · 05/09/2019 19:40

Oh, lordy. So I am in the 2WW but got made redundant yesterday. The worst timing. Now I'm hoping desperately I'm NOT pregnant (no mat leave...DH is still in probationary period of his new job etc...) Don't know what to do. Will probably have to postpone TTC if I'm not pregnant, which I am reluctant to do as I'm 39 in November and really don't have that much time to be mucking around.

Alice8688 · 03/09/2019 22:01

@Bumpingalong84 it really is 😔 I don't know how I'm feeling tbh. I was so sure last month (I felt so pregnant) But obvs wasn't to be. We'd followed SMEP, used opks, and conceive plus.

This month has been more relaxed. And I wasn't sure that we'd dtd enough/at the right time. But after looking at my clue app it appears we may have. (Dtd 5, 4, 3 days before ov and O day and the day after) so fingers crossed. But I'm so scared of getting my hopes up again.

I'm going to do my best to not test early. But I know I'll cave! So hoping to test (if early) no more than 2 days before af is due xxx

Bumpingalong84 · 03/09/2019 20:14

Ahh @Alice8688 the wait is so long isn’t it! How you feeling about it? Will you test early?

Alice8688 · 03/09/2019 08:39

Hi again @EmmaOvary !! Here's to a luckier month.

@Bumpingalong84 I'm due af on 14th sept. I think! I'm always within a day or so xx

Bumpingalong84 · 03/09/2019 08:25

Thanks @Alice8688 AF due around the 10th, how about you?

EmmaOvary · 02/09/2019 20:41

Me! Hello again, some familiar peeps on here. Good luck everyone!

Alice8688 · 02/09/2019 19:30

@Bumpingalong84 aw bless you darling. Welcome! I don't know when I ovulated but I'm due af on 14th sept.
When's af due for you? Xx

Bumpingalong84 · 31/08/2019 09:29

Hi ladies can I join, just starting the tww. Trying for #2 after a mmc late May at 12 weeks Sad I’m 1DPO second cycle trying. Was so deflated last cycle.

Alice8688 · 31/08/2019 08:06

Here we go again...anyone else starting the tww? Xx
