Hi all,

Currently 8dpo. Cycle 3 of TTC baby #2.

Just wondered if anyone else was on their TWW?

Ovulated CD11 and AF isn't due until 14/01 so still a bit to wait.. BFN test this morning although I know it's super early still!

I think half the problem is how cheap the tests are and the large packs they come in!!!! Driving myself crazy testing!

gg321 · 05/01/2020 14:16

How’s everyone doing? I did do another test this am but even fainted than before, holding on for another test later (I know I should wait but the ICs are too cheap and I’m a testing addict) I have such strong symptoms, u name it I’ve got it, constant crampy back ache, on and off metal taste in mouth, sore boobs, needing to wee often, nauseous, head aches, drowsy and tired, not due af for mother week, I’ll maybe post a pic of the test later if I think anything to see

debbs77 · 05/01/2020 13:13

I'm definitely prepared this time physically.....been taking the vitamins etc, whereas last time it was a surprise so I wasn't.

I'm feeling positive!!!!! Hating the wait though!

sojo44 · 05/01/2020 09:09

@debbs77 oh my gosh! I'm so sorry you had to go through that!

Ylladyoll · 05/01/2020 09:05

So sorry for your loss Sad

Ylladyoll · 05/01/2020 09:03

I've had 3 children all straightforward, no miscarriages. My youngest is 15 this year :/ I know big gap but new relationship and just thought we would not actively try but not prevent and see what happens. I do feel symptoms but boob soreness has lessened. I think you imagine symptoms in the TWW lol anyway test day for me is friday if AF doesn't come x

sojo44 · 05/01/2020 09:01

I'm about 4-5 DPO 🥳 and on CD22. Usually have 45 day cycles so no idea what's going to happen as it seems quite early to OV for once (diagnosed with PCOS).

No obvious symptoms, just a few twinges here and there, and (TMI) hard and sensitive nips regardless of weather. But I'm ruling that just to be hormonal after OV.

Why does the wait feel like foreeeeeeeverrrrr! I'm tempted to pee on a IC just so I can pee on something 😂 help!

debbs77 · 05/01/2020 08:53

It is scary isn't it.

I lost my last baby at 11 w 5 days. Found out at 14 weeks. Huge shock

Ylladyoll · 05/01/2020 00:13

I'm 44 in April so conceiving is difficult and miscarriage a risk, a couple of my friends have had miscarriages at my age seems I will worry if I manage to get caught until I reach the 12 week scan x

debbs77 · 04/01/2020 23:57

@ylladyoll I am....I am 42 x

Ylladyoll · 04/01/2020 23:27

I have 1 test in the cupboard but it says to wait until missed period, its not an early response, I hope I am but I'm 43 so my fertility is coming to an end :( anyone else over 40?

Grace2296 · 04/01/2020 23:05

@2020BabyPlease I think I will go with the OPK then which would make me 5 or 6 days PO!

I was on microgynon for about 7 years! Never had cycles this long before I went on the pill! 🤔

Good luck to you too! Xx

gg321 · 04/01/2020 21:58

Aw Thankyou, I was trying to work out how to do that as seen it done before but I couldn’t so thank you 😊

I think I’m only 8dpo, I did get this sort of line when I was the same dpo on a previous pregnancy, but I know it’s still insanely early so I’m not convinced by a long way but who knows. Thanks for your replies btw

gg321 · 04/01/2020 21:49

Well what I should do is wait 3 or 4 days to give the hcg time to rise (if there is any that is) so I get a definite answer but in reality I will test again tomorrow morning and potentially get another mind frazzling squinter 😂 I have ICs and one FRER, will save the FRER for if I continue to get faint progressing lines on the ICs 😮

Sadie95 · 04/01/2020 21:45

@gg321 I def see a line and a vvv slight colour, how many dpo are you? Hopefully it will get stronger over the next few days

@gg321 I think there's a bit of pink to that. Fingers crossed for you! When are you next going to test again?

OP posts:
gg321 · 04/01/2020 21:35

Yes I do but you’ll prob all say it’s an evap or you can’t see it, but anyway here it is, when I shine a light to it I can see an ever so slight pinkiness to it but then like I said I have gone crazy and I could just be imaging everything lol

@gg321 Ohh do you have any pics of the test you took? I know sometimes it's a bit of a nightmare to get a decent pic.

@Grace2296 I would go with the date of the positive OPK I think. What pill were you on? I was on Cerazette because I can't take the combined (migraines) I wonder if some pills have more of an impact than others when you come off them and are TTC.

Good luck! Fingers crossed you get your BFP xx

@Ylladyoll respect to you for being able to wait to test!

Ylladyoll · 04/01/2020 21:13

I'm on the 2WW got heavy boobs, heartburn bit of nausea but waiting for AF date 10/1 to test, it's a pain this waiting lark

gg321 · 04/01/2020 21:12

I know the faint (mega faint) line after the said time could be evap but the one I did yesterday at 7dpo there was nothing at all and the one I did this morning but the faint line has appeared on this afternoons after a 5 hour wee hold!

gg321 · 04/01/2020 21:07

Hi all, I’m in tww and already gone totally crazy, had so many strong pregnancy symptoms (been pregnant before) think I’m 8dpo, tested yesterday bfn obviously as very early, I have tested again this afternoon and I swear I can see the faintest faintest line on the IC. Only appeared after the stated time but this has happened to me before at 8dpo and it has turned out to be a true bfp. So I’m kind of in limbo now til I know for sure, guess I wait for a few days to see if I get stronger line (well I won’t be able to wait, I’ll prob be testing daily and maybe getting the faint lines) ahhhhhhh craziness!
