1DPO - the tww offically starts here 🤪

Hello fellow tccers, so today is officially 1DPO for me, offically my favorite and most hated part of the cycle.

Got my LH surge 2 days ago, going to keep doing opks just to be on the safe side. Really hoping that this month I will actually hold off testing until AF is due.

AF due on 26th. Anyone fancy symptom watching with me 🤩

Hi @ceebee21 I think we were on the same thread last month, fingers crossed it will be bfps for us both this month.

How strange that you have got no temp spike, are you using opks?

@ChampooPapi so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Hope this will be your lucky month too

Well I managed to resist testing for today, I have loads of tests in the house this month which is going to make it a lot harder to avoid premature testing

Hiya, can I join?

I think I am about 2DPO, but I tend to only have a LP of 11 days... so AF due on Xmas day!!!

I am trying to temp, but no spike so far which is odd!! x

@Wackadoodle84 hopping on. Af was the 26th last months so I'm working for that as my period due date this month. But have no idea when I ovulated or when my period will come as was pregnant for three months, but ended in miscarriage, then was on depo the last 18 months before that so no af.

Before that I was pregnant for 9 months so it is a bloody mystery

@MrsMeow2019 hopefully this will be your month, being able to use fmu with the clear blue sounds good to me.

Woke up from last nights night shift just now with an almighty urge to do a test.... at 4 dpo! Am just being ridiculous now 😂

@wackadoodle84 I’m not sure on it yet, I’ve used it for two cycles , first one i just kept getting flashing smilies (high fertility) and no peak, before that I tried internet cheapy OPKs but had no positive results I struggled to find tome to do them whereas the clear blue are FMU and a lot easier.

Seeing the peak has made me feel more positive as a sign I’m actually ovulating so fingers crossed!

Lol I’m a bit of an addict too and never thought I would be, going to try and hold out until Xmas eve ... which will be 2 days before AF and if it’s bfn I shall drink lots of gin Xmas day 😆

@MrsMeow2019 how do you find the fertility monitor? Am thinking of investing for next month if needed.

I will be completely reasonable about testing until about 8dpo, then all sense goes out the window and I tend to become a poas maniac 😂🤦‍♀️ Am planning to test at 12dpo (Xmas eve). Fingers crossed we make it till then !

@HalfPenny28 hopefully we can manage to keep each other away from the tests until at least AF due date. Have you been TTC for long?

@didyousaytea welcome aboard. Fingers crossed for bfps all round

@Kkd85 so sorry about your mc, TTC can just be awful sometimes, I tried for 4 years for my first pregnancy. Fingers and toes crossed for an Xmas bfp for you xx

I'm 2-3dpo but happy to join still! Due to test Christmas Day/Boxing Day

MrsMeow2019 · 13/12/2019 21:22

@Wackadoodle84 @HalfPenny28 just reread your posts 😆 maybe we can help each other hold off on testing. Am exactly the same next week will be fine and dandy from 6 days befor I’m due I start testing and can’t think of anything else 🤦‍♀️

MrsMeow2019 · 13/12/2019 21:15

@Wackadoodle84 we are cycle twins, I’m 1 DPO today and due on 26th December.

This is cycle 5 trying for baby number 1. Starting to get a little disheartened by the entire thing, I had pie in the sky plans and being able to announce to family at Christmas.

On a positive note I got my first peak fertility smiley face on clear blue fertility monitor 2 days ago... so fingers crossed for the best Xmas prezzie !

Are you ladies testing early or holding out ? I’m not sure whether to leave it or test xmas eve so at least I can drink Xmas day and drown my sorrows 😂

Kkd85 · 13/12/2019 20:49

Hi I think I'm due on 23rd or the 24th I can be between 28/29 day cycle. I don't do opks or that jus DTD lol have been ttc number 2 for jus over 2 years now was driving myself nutty with opks and using too many pregnancy tests lol so don't ever test till I'm late. Had pul pregnancy start of April this year and then a MC at end of sept. Now taking high dose folic acid and baby aspirin. Vitamin d is low also so having to take that. Consultant said low vit d can triple MC rate so here's hoping all this to will result in a sticky pregnancy xxx

HalfPenny28 · 13/12/2019 15:41

Hey 🙌🏼

I'm due on the 29th - not got my static to say I'm ovulating yet but I'll happily do the tww with you!

I always find the first week a breeze! Then the second week I test 2 times a day so I've promised myself not to test until day of af this time!
