Hi all, apologies couldn’t find another thread so thought I’d start a new one!

I think I ovulated yesterday so now officially in the 2 week wait with AF due on 1st/2nd March.

Is anyone else on similar timescales and would like to join me for the TWW?

Bit of background, came off the pill mid December, first AF started on 31st Jan so this has been our first cycle of properly trying. I think we managed to DTD a decent amount over the fertile window but I’m not sure- tried to use OPKs but couldn’t get to grips with them really. Think I ovulated last night as I had really bad cramps, think I’ve been watching too many YouTube videos on ovulation as I could’ve sworn I felt it move out of the top of my ovary Grin

Congrats @Hayd88 I hope it progresses well! Let us know how it goes :)

You’re giving me a bit of hope as I’m 9dpo today and have had period like cramps all day. Actually feel anxious and never want to go to the bathroom in case af starts :/

@Hayd88
Congrats!! I hope it works out for the best!

BFN at what is 13-15 dpo (irregular periods). I want my mind to accept it and bring on the AF. Can't do with another extremely long period and no hope. I don't know what's wrong with me, two years of TTC and not getting anywhere. Sad

Hayd88 · 01/03/2020 16:44

Congratulations @Lushfanatic123 !! How are you feeling now?

I'm sorry @JeanieInABottle ....but potentially you'll get a BFP in a few days if AF still isn't here? It can often be positive a number of days late?

So yesterday I caved and at 10dpo did a test and it was a BFP. I felt nauseous all day. Nothing else except I had full cramping all day on 9dpo.

After all my chemical pregnancies I'm now just sitting here worried out of my mind this will all end again within the week. Especially since today I feel nothing!!

I might have to keep myself sane on here a bit sorry!!

JeanieInABottle · 01/03/2020 12:45

So my tests have just arrived. BFN :(
AF still isn’t here Sad

Lushfanatic123 · 29/02/2020 22:38

Hi all,

Thank you!

Yeah I really didn't have any symptoms, just boobs looked a bit bigger which usually happens when AF is due.

Tested because my DH had a feeling. I suppose I had stamina because I really thought I was out this month!

Hopefully others that feel like they have no symptoms feel like there is a chance for them as well. Fingers crossed for loads more BFP!

Hey ladies,
May I join?
I'm currently trying to conceive baby number 4. (I know I'm crazy, but I'm Irish and it's pretty normal over here lol)
I think I'm 12dpo today, which means af is due Monday. I did a frer on Thursday pm @ 10dpo (just because I couldn't wait but I should of known better) and it was bfn. Also have had no symptoms at all so not really holding a lot of hope. Have decided I'm not going to test until Wednesday if af hasn't came.
I only came off the pill in January and haven't a clue what my natural cycle is like, so not 100% i ov'ed on 17th, but I had sore boobs all last week (which I also don't remember having that as a ov symptom but suppose things chop and change).
have downloaded flo app and thinking about buying CB opk for my next cycle!
@Lushfanatic123 lovely bfp biggest congrats! And u held out to test to 14dpo, wish I had ur stamina lol

EasterBunny7 · 29/02/2020 22:02

@Newbie0818

Thanks! I managed to stop myself this afternoon and will try with FMU tomorrow.

JeanieInABottle · 29/02/2020 18:11

I’ve just ordered some amazon tests !

Newbie0818 · 29/02/2020 17:55

So... Flo predicts my af will start on Monday, but I’ll only be 10 dpo? That’s assuming I did ovulate after my opk turned positive. I’ve had irregular periods and last month was my first time using opk’s so I think the app is basing it on that?

Should I test then or just wait and see if af does in fact turn up?

Newbie0818 · 29/02/2020 17:53

@EasterBunny7 I’ve had exactly the same with the cramping and creamy cm. I’d wait for FMU just to be absolutely sure.

JeanieInABottle · 29/02/2020 16:49

Can I join please ladies?
Long time lurker - haven’t been on for a long while though.
This is our first cycle - haven’t been trying trying but kind of the ‘what will be will be’ mindset.
Due AF tomo - can’t stop thinking about it already .
Feel a bit sickly and my boobs just look a bit different.
Eeeeeek!

EasterBunny7 · 29/02/2020 16:37

@Lushfanatic123

Wow that looks amazing, really pleased for you! So, you didn't experience any symptoms - sorry I'm new to the chat - and I feel apprehensive coz I haven't had symptoms either Confused

EasterBunny7 · 29/02/2020 16:34

Mind if I join the March bus? I've got irregular cycles so I hit the end of the Feb bus with negative results but now on the Mar bus if I've ovulated late in my cycle.

Currently no symptoms other than 9 days worth of cramping mid- cycle!!

Sorry for TMI but today I've had a lot of creamy cm. Is that a sign of looming AF or is that a pregnancy symptom?

Is it worth taking a test right now mid afternoon or shall I wait for FMU tomorrow? So many questions....Confused

Newbie0818 · 29/02/2020 11:15

Congrats! @Lushfanatic123 that’s amazing news.

Lushfanatic123 · 29/02/2020 09:31

Thank you @Lulubon

Fingers crossed for others getting their BFP!

Lulubon · 29/02/2020 09:19

@Lushfanatic123 wow!!! Congratulations that’s a deffo positive 😂 x

Lushfanatic123 · 29/02/2020 08:05

I literally can't believe it but I got my BFP this morning!

I'm so surprised as I really didn't think I had any signs or symptoms!

Anyone testing beginning of March?
Newbie0818 · 28/02/2020 18:38

Sorry to hear @yoomoo :( onwards and upwards though.

Lushfanatic123 · 28/02/2020 17:50

@Lulubon not necessarily if you were DTD every other day

Lulubon · 28/02/2020 17:34

@yoomoo oh no! Sorry to hear! Fingers crossed next month will be your month. I don’t have high hopes this month either.

@Lushfanatic123 it’s difficult to say exactly we’ve basically been DTD every other day and I forgot to do any OPK for a few days I’m assuming I missed it

Lushfanatic123 · 28/02/2020 17:16

Of course!

I'm not sure how I'm feeling about it tbh. I havent had many symptoms. Just some cramps, a bit of pink cm at 4dpo, boobs are bigger. Nothing major. Not sure if I'll get a BFP. Guess I'll see.

yoomoo · 28/02/2020 17:14

I’ve also got myself a BBT that connects up to the Fermometer app so going to give that a spin! Thinking of investing in a clearblue ovulation test but not sure- has anyone on here got one? I’ve read a lot online since TTC and the general consensus seems to be that BBT is the way to go!

Hi all, I’m out I’m afraid, AF arrived last night and is in full force today Sad I only came off the pill in December and this was my first ‘proper’ cycle and I had no idea how long it was so I guessed at 30 on my apps. Turns out I’m 28 days, I do seem to recall years ago being 28 so I guess it’s good I’ve gone straight back into the rhythm.
Anyway onwards and upwards to next fertile window which Ovia tells me is in 11 days! Seems to fly around really.
Felt really disappointed yesterday but as DP said we’ve only just started and probably haven’t been trying really hard so it will happen. I didn’t want a November baby anyway as it was too close to my DSDs birthday so December would suit me just nicely from a work perspective too Smile
Wishing you all lots of luck will keep an eye on here for the BFPs!

Newbie0818 · 28/02/2020 16:50

Can I join? Partly because I was reading through and am now excited to hear if you get your bfp @Lushfanatic123, and also because I’m due sometime in the next week (irregular cycle since coming off pill so not sure). I think we spoke on a different thread @yoomoo ☺️
