Anyone else in the TWW and want to keep each other sane?

@mrsc1987 I wouldn't say you're necessarily out. It's very common not to get a BFP till your missed period.

@Blossomingflower94 Oooh! Fingers crossed! How exciting!

@Chaosonthehorizon To be honest mine's an estimate! I thought I felt some light pain on my left side on the day I think I ovulated, and was knackered a couple days after so figured I had to be in the luteal phase. Also the same day Flo was predicting. So might well be that it's totally not the case!

Chaosonthehorizon · 31/08/2019 07:48

Fingers crossed!! How do you all know how many DPO you are? Do you know exactly when you ovulated? I think I felt it when I woke up in the night when I was ill but not sure....if I take the last day of peak so 48 hrs after peak arrived then that is three days later!

Blossomingflower94 · 31/08/2019 07:31

I'm FREAKING out. I took a cheap pregnancy test this AM at 10 DPO and I think I see a second line!!

It won't let me post a photo 😩 going to see if it's any darker tonight. Technically not FMU either as I've just finished a night shift.

12dp bfn so reckon im out, always gutting and doesnt get easier. Going to a wedding today so the drinks can flow at least

Raizelrea · 31/08/2019 05:07

9DPO, just tested and of course it's negative. I guess I will have a drink at the wedding I'm going to today, though don't see myself going overboard. We got to my parents' place and them And OH were having drinks with dinner, and both beer and wine smelled really bad and vinegary to me. We had been up since 3am to get to their place though so it's very possible I was just tired.

Thank you ladies for the messages, it's so easy to feel alone in this, but we're not 💗
My sister got caught first time with both pregnancies which is amazing for her but really hits hard at my anxieties!
I know I need to just chill out and stop comparing myself to others m but it's just so hard 😩 It will be our time soon, I'm sure it will! 💗

Banoffeepie91 · 30/08/2019 23:15

@november90 I feel the same. We went round to our friends who have a 3 month old last week and he is gorgeous and my OH is so great playing with him. They conceived first time round and even though we’ve only been trying for 3 months just makes me sad why it happened so quickly for them and not us. Seems like I see a pregnancy announcement every week on Facebook.
Now just waiting for AF to finish so we can focus on DTD again. Round and round we go! Hopefully not much longer for all of us here though 🤞.

AliSxo · 30/08/2019 21:06

@november90 I feel the same I've not had many symptoms and I'm due AF on 4th September. My friend is pregnant and we're all doing something this weekend and I'm happy for her but I want my BFP!! You're not out till AF arrives so try and keep positive xxx

itssquidstella · 30/08/2019 20:37

Sorry you're feeling like that, @november90. I'm not enjoying the process either - I just want to be pregnant already, dammit! It must be hard with your sister being pregnant too. Fingers crossed you're lucky next cycle and the waiting will be over! X

november90 · 30/08/2019 19:00

Guys I'm feeling a bit emotional :( AF is 1 week away and like clockwork, I have started to feel a bit itchy down there and this always happens a week before she arrives. That and 0 other pregnancy symptoms has just made me feel it isn't my month. My sister is pregnant and just got her dating scan. She's struggling with morning sickness meaning she's around a lot as were helping with her look after my niece whilst she's unwell so it's just a constant reminder. I don't understand the phrase 'just enjoy ttc', it's just horrible. I have like 40 day cycles so my next ovulation will likely be the end of sept :(:(:(

Raizelrea · 30/08/2019 16:43

@Jojowash Congratulations, that's amazing! Incredible that you got a BFP a week before your missed period already - makes me feel that perhaps testing tomorrow isn't a total waste of time 😄

MrsMeow2019 · 30/08/2019 15:29

@Jojowash Congratulations on your BFP Smile. Such an early BFP as well, I might have to test tomorrow morning now hehee!

flossy12 · 30/08/2019 15:29

@AliSxo 🤞🏻🤞🏻 your not out until AF😘

@Chez13 I've had some white creamy CM since basically OV day 😂 I'm convinced today that we haven't caught 😩

november90 · 30/08/2019 15:13

@Jojowash awww that's wonderful news! Congratulations! I'm so happy for you and your rainbow 💚

@itssquidstellaI've heard a strange taste in the mouth is a good sigh for pregnancy so it sounds like you could be into a winner 😀

@TTC1993 sorry if I've missed it somewhere else of the thread, but did you retest today? How did you get on? 😀

itssquidstella · 30/08/2019 14:57

Hi all, congratulations to those with bfps already!

I'm now 8dpo (possibly only 7) and have had a really horrible taste in my mouth since last night. I'm feeling pretty rough generally so don't know whether I'm just coming down with something or it's a possible symptom. I'm trying to hold off on testing for a while anyway!

Jojowash · 30/08/2019 14:49

@AliSxo

Thank you! No, not any symptoms apart from a bit hormonal I suppose. My partner could tell I was pregnant, he said to take a test so I must be acting different. Physically I have pressure, cramping. I hope that's not a bad sign

Jojowash · 30/08/2019 14:45

I'm scared to get excited! So anxious I'll have another MC. The only thing that will show everything is ok is a scan. I've booked a private for 17th Sept. I'll be 6+2 days. Then I think I'll book another!

AliSxo · 30/08/2019 14:43

Aww @Jojowash well done how amazing! My AF is due on the 4th, BFN today for me when I tested. Have you had any symptoms? Xx

Jojowash · 30/08/2019 14:42

Hey guys,

My AF due 3rd Sept. did a test 3 days ago!

Here's hoping my rainbow hangs on this time xx

Good luck to you guys!!

TWW - testing 4th September
AliSxo · 30/08/2019 13:54

@Chez13 I'm testing again tomorrow but I'd be strong willed if I left it until Sunday, I'm just so excited to see that BFP!! Xx

Chez13 · 30/08/2019 13:09

@AliSxo hoping yous get your bfp ladies , when you due to test? Im just not sure how im feeling one min im thinking oh this could be theeee month next im like nah looks like af is on her way 🤦🏼‍♀️ some white/cream cm today again (sorry i know tmi) im about loosing the will to live here haaa how frustrating is this 2ww arrrrghhhh x

AliSxo · 30/08/2019 11:25

@Chez13 @flossy12 I had cramps 3/4DPO - currently 10DPO with BFN this morning. Boobs have been slightly itchy but this might be something I normally get when AF is due soon and never paid attention before. I have had a few minutes of nausea yesterday and today so still hoping for my BFP! Xx

flossy12 · 30/08/2019 11:19

@Chez13 I've had cranpin on and off but not sure if it's a early pregnancy symptom or due to my constipation. 🙄😩

Chez13 · 30/08/2019 11:05

@flossy12 @Raizelrea yeah maybe a lil stomach bug or something , been really snappy last night and then so emotional im just so confused as these are mimicking sings of af too 🙄 suppose time till tell , extreme tiredness today but not stopped in work from 8 this morning so that's probably the reason haha !! Not much else to report just now other than still having the cramps on and off again today x

november90 · 30/08/2019 10:57

I'm 8 dpo and I don't really feel anything. I had some mild cramping a few days ago but seems to have settled now. It was nothing magnificent but was enough for me to notice. I've felt a little sickly the past couple days, but with af due next week this is kinda normal. I just would've though I would be feeling more if I was pregnant by now and I feel normal!
