Yet another TWW thread (AF early October)

142 replies

I can't seem to find anyone on the same timing - any ladies expecting AF early October?

I'm only 1 DPO with AF due 6 October, anybody else just starting their TWW to buddy up with?

Am I mad or is that a faint line?! My app is now saying I'm late... I'm technically according to the app 1 day late and I am 14 DPO

whambam89 · 03/10/2019 22:02

@raizelrea it's just thrown me with having such a short cycle last time, my tracking apps are all confused and no longer in sync so I thought I'd just go with the later date 😂 in reality it probably won't happen though and I'll be testing 27 times a day from Monday 🙈 Let us know how you go on in the morning, fingers crossed for a BFP!

@whambam89 No sign of AF though to be fair not expecting it till Sunday. I do however typically spot at this point which hasn't happened yet so who knows! I admire your patience of waiting till way after AF due, very impressive!

@missoa 8 dpo is early to test so don't be disappointed if it's a BFN as implantation can happen as late as 12 dpo apparently!

Have you had any months previously that you've had similar symptoms?

LetMeIn321 · 03/10/2019 21:26

@whambam89
Thank you! And good luck! I have my fingers crossed for you..! X

missoa · 03/10/2019 21:18

Ahh @whambam89 that's so exciting to read that you had pregnancy dreams! (And so lovely you and your friend had babies at the same time!) I'm 7 dpo today so going to test tomorrow with a first response, even though I know I've seen loads of people say it's too early. yes this will be my first! We've been properly trying since June but I've been off the pill for almost two years. I'm 33 and he's 36

I dream about my AF starting, and absent-mindly daydream about it, that's how I know it's coming most of the time. Hopefully the same rings true for pregnancy!

whambam89 · 03/10/2019 21:10

Hi @missoa weirdly the first time round I dreamt that one of my best friends was in labour and that I was pregnant.. we ended up with babies 5 weeks apart! I think vivid dreams are a symptom so 🤞 for you. Will this be your first?

whambam89 · 03/10/2019 20:56

@raizelrea I'm not sure when I'll test, AF is due monday according to flo and wednesday according to ovia so I might (try 😂) and hold out until weds /thurs.. we will see! My cycle was strangely only 24 days last month but the more I think about it the more I think it could have been a chemical because I had a couple of faint lines when I tested. I had some cramping this morning which I thought could have been another early appearance but nothing as yet 🤞 10 DPO today so could have been implantation but I don't want to read into it too much!

Are you testing tomorrow? I'm guessing no sign of AF?

missoa · 03/10/2019 20:24

Hi guys! Can I join this thread? My AF is due on the 10th, I've been looking for a group with similar dates! I've been symptom spotting since like 2 hours after dtd Confused I've been getting all sorts of symptoms and last night I had a really vivid dream I had a little baby and was breastfeeding! Has anyone else had that?

@HayleyD84 Are you still planning to test tomorrow? I am too - good luck! Sore boobs sound promising - I've been having some on and off twinges in breasts but nothing ongoing.

@whambam89 Thank you! That's funny about your first pregnancy! I suppose loads of people only find out after their missed period so no major symptoms must be common! I do have a fair bit of nausea but I think that's just what my luteal phase is like, at least it was definitely the case last cycle. Did you say you are testing on Monday?

@Mrsw1992 Yes headache is meant to be a symptom - only issue is a headache could be caused by loads of things so probably not the most reliable one!

@NavyBerry Hi, how did you get on with testing today? 😊

@SallyWallyDoDah That could be promising if you are technically late now! Fingers crossed for you! How many DPO are you?

@Rhubarbe Sorry AF got you! Be kind to yourself, fresh start and a new cycle - hopefully this will be the one for you!

SallyWallyDoDah · 03/10/2019 07:41

@Rhubarbe ah crap never mind. Next month everything crossed for you! 🤞🏼

@LetMeIn321 agree. You have been through it. Hope you have some good news this month xx

Rhubarbe · 02/10/2019 20:45

I’m out folks - at least AF was a couple of days earlier than it might have been so on to the next cycle.

Baby dust to the rest of you though!

whambam89 · 02/10/2019 17:41

@letmein321 sounds like you've had a tough time of it! Everything crossed for you this month 🤞 keep us updated

LetMeIn321 · 02/10/2019 15:59

@whambam89
Thank you. Yes it's so easy to get caught up in it all. It can be so stressful. I started having fertility treatment in November 2017. However there were a number of complications. I eventually had 3 rounds of IUI. but the cost was so much I couldn't keep doing it. I now have a donor friend so I have at home artificial insemination which has been for the last 4 months. Hopefully it'll happen soon! And for you too..! x

SallyWallyDoDah · 02/10/2019 15:06

AF was due today - still not here. And now CM is creamy?? Hmm... I've got tender boobies (which I don't usually get before AF) and a little cramping, peeing more often.

I've been on a long walk this morning and took my menstrual cup just in case but she's stayed away... I think I'll test again Saturday if she still isn't here.

Like everyone says "it's not over until the AF sings!" (Not quite the right saying but the same concept 😁) xx

NavyBerry · 02/10/2019 13:33

May I join? I'm due on 5 October. Starting to test tomorrow. No symptoms 😒 we are trying for baby #2 so I guess no symptoms is not my scenario as last time I had loads. Really hope to see many // here! Fingers crossed!

whambam89 · 02/10/2019 13:17

@letmein321 sorry to hear that! Fingers crossed for you this month 🤞

According to flo app AF is due on the 8th I think, so will probably try and hold off until then. It's only our second cycle of trying so I'm trying not to get too caught up in everything. How about you?

LetMeIn321 · 02/10/2019 12:54

@whambam89 Are you due to test soon? How long have you been trying if you don't mind me asking? x

LetMeIn321 · 02/10/2019 12:53

@whambam89
I caved and tested today - BFN. Feel so disappointed but will try again. I've been reading It Starts With The Egg and have used a lot of information and advice from that. So hopefully something will happen soon x

LetMeIn321 · 02/10/2019 12:51

@HayleyD84
The bleed is very light brown. I still have it but tested today and BFN. I'm not sure if the bleeding is due to stress as that has happened before when my dad died. Also I am on DHEA recommended by my fertility doctor and that can cause irregular bleeds. I didn't know that until today. x

whambam89 · 02/10/2019 12:45

@Letmein321 let's hope so! If I get my BFP this side of Christmas I'll be happy but trying not to put too much pressure on myself!

How are you feeling today? When do you think you'll test?

whambam89 · 02/10/2019 12:44

@raizelrea sometimes no symptoms is the best sign.. I remember being so sure with DD1 that I wasn't pregnant that month that I got really drunk 3 days before my bfp 🙈 good luck, not long until you can test 🤞

Mrsw1992 · 02/10/2019 12:07

Is a bad head ache a good sign? 🤣 that and the occasional day of sore boobies is all I’m experiencing... I did bloat last night but think that was my own doing from trying to hold a wee in for too long travelling with work.

Not long left to wait ladies!!
