Why is it so impossible to just relax and forget about it until AF does or doesn't (hopefully doesn't!!) show up....

If anyone else is around the same timing as me would be lovely to have some tww buddies x

Yes @GeLe always good to be able to share with others, particularly when we might not be sharing this experience with others in our 'real' lives.

How many dpo will you be on Saturday?

The only solace I guess is that we are all in the same boat. It's nice to have people to share this with and talk about how we are feeling. Definitely testing Saturday, hoping to see something. If not...may be too early or I may be out?! The wait is the worst xx

Aw @bitheby big hugs x I do feel the exact same

That's no criticism of anyone by the way. I know nothing's certain in life until it's certain.

Ignore me. I'm rambling. Really struggling to focus at work this morning.

bitheby · 13/02/2020 11:12

It's horrible. Because I'm having quite strong cramps. But they could be pre-menstrual cramps and mean the opposite of what I want. I know we're all in the same boat. I just wish I'd got a line at 8DPO like some!

@bitheby I had that wind pain the other day too and I Tmi still have some wind and little burps.

I know I wish I could just forget about it until AF time. Impossible!

Really bad trapped wind pains this morning and brain fog/ tiredness and I'm really emotional. I've shut the door to my office at work in case I cry.

Probably all AF symptoms. I wish we didn't torture ourselves with trying to interpret everything.

@GeLe me too I'm going crazy. My boobs are a little less sore today which is making me think that's not a good sign but I'm keeping the faith for now! I know I'll be so tempted to test over the weekend

Wow @sadie how wonderful!! Super strong positive at 10dpo. 😁😁

@whyhaveidonethis agree, it could be early. Don't give up hope until AF arrives. I'm so sorry you've had such heartache with the chemicals 😢❤️

I'm trying not to symptom spot like ive said so many times but I can't help it 🙈

Feel like I have more CM than normal and I'm roasting. My boss came into my office and said it's FREEZING in here and I'm sitting with the window open roasting. These could be AF signs though too. Aaaaah the wait is such a headf*ck!

Sadie95 · 13/02/2020 08:18

Got everything crossed for you both!🤞🏻

Ah @Sadie95 congrats I'm delighted for you!!!

I'm keeping everything crossed and saying every prayer that I will get the same result.... probably still gonna try hold out till AF unless I get a sign that I should test!

Whyhaveidonethis · 13/02/2020 08:02

Congratulations @Sadie95 my FRER this morning is so faint again. Much less than last night. I can't believe it's going to be a 4th chemical in 9 months

Sadie95 · 13/02/2020 07:43

This mornings tests - I do think one step aren't as sensitive as they say they are. Symptom wise was sore boobs, a little bit of nausea but I have that a lot anyway with my endo so not a 'new' symptom and that's it really, I didn't get any implantation bleeding or anything x

Whyhaveidonethis · 12/02/2020 23:45

Hugs. Good luck, I've git my fingers crossed for you

bitheby · 12/02/2020 23:29

Got everything crossed for you that this is your time.

I turned 43 a fortnight ago. I’m single and doing this with a donor.

Various things have happened in the last few years which means this is cycle 2. Cycle 1 was last March.

I haven’t even finished my second TWW yet but having a down moment.

Whyhaveidonethis · 12/02/2020 22:24

@bitheby I'm 41, and this is cycle 21. maybe 22, I've lost count, keep the faith. Weirdly this morning I couldn't see a line at all, after the bfp last night but this evening it's positive and slightly darker. Still very faint though

@bitheby I am keeping everything crossed for you ❤️ xx

bitheby · 12/02/2020 21:46

@Whyhaveidonethis That's good news. I saw your earlier posts. Fingers crossed for progression.

I really really really want to be pregnant. I'm so worried I'm too old and I've missed my chance. Got everything crossed.

GeLe · 12/02/2020 21:46

@whyhaveidonethis aw that's great news! Congrats 😁

@Sadie95 you're inspiring me to test early despite all my talk of waiting!!

Have you been having any other 'symptoms' we should be reading too much into and driving ourselves crazy comparing?!

OP posts:
Whyhaveidonethis · 12/02/2020 21:44

@GeLe yes slightly darker BFP this evening!!

Sadie95 · 12/02/2020 21:37

@GeLe thank you! Yes I'm 10dpo today, my boobs were really sore and heavy today at work which is what made me test again x
