Hey @Anny27 @ChampooPapi @BS9790 @Cruiser1 @mlax @ELM7 @SweetpeaOrMarigold !

I don’t think I’ve got everyone so please tag anyone else who is still in TWW/planning on testing from now - end of the month.

This is for when we run out of space on the other thread! Then from here we can move to the Feb group set up by @terribleimagination or hopefully a pregnancy thread 😊

On CD28 currently and did a test this morning - BFN. AF due CD33-34 so hopefully was just too early 🙈.

Baby dust to all! 💫🍀💖

Wishing if AF is going to come it hurries up as am really struggling today with period pains without the period. Due in 2 days but don’t normally struggle before it arrives but I just want to curl up with a hot water bottle today. 😩

mlax · 23/01/2020 08:31

@GemLou88 this is my 2nd but more painful as in backache but I've not had much bleeding at all with the 2 which I've found odd..!

GemLou88 · 23/01/2020 08:21

@BS9790 @mlax sorry AF showed. Take the time to rest, indulge and look after yourselves. Sorry I can't remember if this is the first AF since for their if you. I know my first one was more painful and heavier than usual. Hope your cramps ease up soon xx

BS9790 · 23/01/2020 08:00

Cramps and bleeding here too 💁‍♀️

mlax · 23/01/2020 07:57

Thanks ladies!

Unfortunately I'm one of those weirdos that can't take tablets 😩😩😩 so I've got my elephant hot water bottle with me today at work. I pray this isn't how my AF will be every month!!!

@FireflyGirl I keep toying between the idea of either sat/sun or wait till AF or the day after it's due. I'm due on Monday so might test then?! What about you?

@mlax ohhh I'm so sorry 😔 that's so shitty. Not sure what you take but I usually get horrendous period pain and ibuprofen lysine is the thing that works for me. And a hot water bottle and chocolate!! Hope it passes soon for you 😘

I'm so sorry to hear that @mlax Flowers

Can you hunker down with painkillers, hot water bottle and Cake?

Fingers crossed for you tomorrow @Anny27

When are you testing @MilsCookie?

mlax · 23/01/2020 07:25

Oh man.. AF has come today and wow is all I can say. I'm in that much pain with my backache and cramps I want to cry. Never has it ever been this bad before. Roll on when I come off! 😅😅

@Anny27 oh bless you waking up at 3am!! You're only one day away now eeeeek! But remember if you do get a bfn it might still be too early... don't be disheartened until af shows. But keeping all my fingers and toes crossed that tomorrow you get a bfp!! 🍀🍀🍀

@kkr168 good luck :) my first cycle after MMC was 2 weeks longer than usual so dont get disheartened xx

Anny27 · 23/01/2020 03:22

11dpo and having trouble sleeping tonight.....hence the 3am replies haha.

I am testing on Friday morning when I will be 12dpo 🤞🤞🤞🤪🤪🤪

@champoopapi thank you 😘 how are you getting on?

@milscookie yep it's a constant battle between whether I am making my symptoms up or not haha

kkr168 · 22/01/2020 19:47

I'm still on the tww, I'm only 6dpo, not sure when AF is due as this will (hopefully not) be my 1st period since mc.
My cycles were 24 days, going by that I ovulated late on cd16? This is my 1st month actively ttc, tracking ovulation, temp, etc so it may well be normal for me to ovulate later in my cycle!!

@FireflyGirl hahaha that made me laugh 🤣 interesting that your heart rate went up last two times you were pg. Maybe you could do a scientific study about this!! 👀

@GemLou88 symptoms wise the main thing for me is that my boobs don’t hurt in the slightest. Which I know sounds weird but I always get sore boobs 7-10 days before AF arrives without fail. The one time I didn’t get sore boobs was the month I was pregnant. Then I got horrendously painful boobs at about 5-6 weeks pregnant. I also have been feeling a little bit nauseous for the last few days, had on and off cramps/dull aches in my abdomen, a strange taste in my mouth (although now I can’t tell if that’s just how my mouth usually tastes?!) and I’ve started feeling really tired the last two days early in the afternoon.

What about everyone else?

Currently on CD28 and I cannot believe how long this week is draaaaaagggggiiiiiiiing 😩😩😩

I poas this morning. I'm on cd19 Blush

In fairness, I used to ovulate earlier than currently predicted, pre-mc, and I've had sore boobs since the weekend and felt nauseous this morning. Have I convinced you I'm not a loon yet? Blush

I'm waiting to see if I get more stretching pains in my uterus and (not scientifically proven, but happened with both previous MC) if my average heart rate according to my Fitbit increases. Those have been more accurate for me than nausea and sore boobs.

I've never watched Coach Trip, and am much further north than you guys, but a day spent in my PJs watching TV sounds amazing...

GemLou88 · 22/01/2020 13:25

@ChampooPapi definitely going mad. That's why I'm so glad this forum exist. I don't think many people would understand the urge to pee on a stick or get excited over EWCM. I was expecting myself to be symptom spotting and wanting to test. But I never expected all this tracking to ttc to be so bloody confusing and frustrating!

How is everyone getting on in their TWW? Who has what symptoms?

ChampooPapi · 22/01/2020 13:06

@GemLou88 how are you getting on? Please tell me your going as mad as the rest of us 😆

GemLou88 · 22/01/2020 12:36

@MilsCookie that’s ok. There’s so many of us and everyone has something going on. Sometimes it’s hard to keep track! But it’s so lovely that everyone is supportive. Fingers crossed for you all too

@GemLou88 sorry for not tagging you at the beginning - I couldn’t remember who was testing when!! Fingers crossed for you my lovely 🍀😘

Hi Ladies. I’ll be watching this group too. First cycle since MMC so don’t know if I’ll go back to my regular or not. If so AF due 28th so will be testing end of the month too xx

ChampooPapi · 22/01/2020 11:59

@ELM7 I plan on getting to the point where I actually believe I'm in coach trip today.

Could definitely be a million worse things I could be doing so will endeavour to keep grateful and focus on Brendon and not babies today 🙏

ChampooPapi · 22/01/2020 11:54

@ELM7 oh I'm binge watching today so I think it'll be more like 8 hours of Brendon love, god I'd do anything for that man 😆

ELM7 · 22/01/2020 11:44

I’m sure Brendon would love to know that he is keeping us sane for an hour a day @ChampooPapi 😂 x

@ChampooPapi coach trip in pyjamas sounds dreamy 😍 shame you’re so far away! And @ELM7 !! I so wish we could all be wallowing in real life together haha. I think it would make it easier!!
BUT we will get through this and have our babies eventually! 💪🏼

ChampooPapi · 22/01/2020 11:41

@Anny27 everything crossed, I mean EVERYTHING. We need a bfp here, like we need air at the moment.

@ELM7 Brendon is brain balm, he is getting me through this week 💪🏳️‍🌈
