TWW - testing mid November

@Forest27 aww lovely what a great line really hope it sticks. Have everything crossed for you.
I had a positive opk on Wednesday 4th November and a lot of cramp pain Thursday 5th so I think I'm 6 dpo.
I'm getting a lot of cramping tonight and pulling/ stretching feelings but I'm not sure if I'm just looking for it and that would usually happen in lead up to AF.
I just have a feeling I'm out this month but we will see. I'm going to try not to test until I'm at least 11 or 12 dpo. Easier said than done.

So pleased for you x

Congratulations @forest27 that's such good news!

@Forest27 congrats!! I hope it sticks xx

Ahhhh congratulations @Forest27! That is a good line! What dpo are you? Have you had any symptoms?

Yeah full on flow over here but I only stopped taking the pill in September so it is early days. I did OPKs to see if I ovulated this month and looks like I did but just late on CD 22 or 23. On the bright side at least I can drink some wine this weekend!

@Forest27 well I was thinking about doing a test this weekend...then AF turned up today It seems early as according to the OPKs I would only be day 7 or 8 dpo....it is my first cycle since my first "real" period for over 10 years though, so hopefully just my cycle establishing it's self. How about you? Did you say you thought you saw a faint line?? That sounds very promising!

@Boredinthehouse12 haha me too! I somehow wake up in the morning with half of a blanket and it rolled around the hubs. Greedy bastard. Bad enough he cant sleep without a fan on. Sometimes I think he's 12. lol

Did a quick ab workout today and I thought to myself, I wonder if I should even be doing this. It TTC a reasonable excuse to getting out of doing any exercise. My mother in law told me I am not allowed to do anything for the first 5 months of pregnancy, and whilst I know that's not true, you bet I am going to milk it for all its worth! LOL

Hi ladies! I'm in my TWW, currently on 2DPO!!

@Forest27 it really does add that extra worry!! i haven't been since we've tried in may as i found it stressed me out so much last year, but if i'm unsuccessful this cycle i think i'm going to start using opk's! xoxo

sorry forgot to add! had a mmc also back in july 2018 and have been trying august 2019-december 2019 then stopped trying for a while but have been trying now since May 2020. no luck yet but i'm trying to stay hopeful. i thought cm had dried up these last few days as not much evidence in panties, (TMI WARNING) however ive still felt quite wet upon touch and can sometimes feel it? sorry if this is super too much! was so hopefull and the lack of cm evidence and bfn a few days ago is just tearing all hope away. just want a little christmas miracle!

hi can i join? i'm due AF 16th Nov, but think i may have ov early as has stretchy ewcm around oct 28th. got a bfn on clear blue early on monday but was a bit early! have been sick mildly once and getting waves of sickness, boobs have ached for a while and get odd aches or twinges low down. i got excited but not holding out this month as only BD around 22-25 th as after that DH was unwell. ewcm was from around 25-28oct so HOPING we may have just caught it🤞

@Forest27 yes, the MMC has definitely made me feel a bit more anxious. It’s one of those things that you naively think only happen to other people 😕

Have you done anymore tests?

@CookieMonster3001 we’re pretty close, I think I’m about 5/6 dpo. I’m feeling knackered too but that’s probably because DH kept stealing the covers during the night 😅

@Forest27 yep I defo look at my apps everyday! Annoyingly, one of them updated today so now 1 app days 3DPO one says 4DPO and the other days 5DPO haha...I am going to say I am around 4 or 5DPO...hoping its more 5 so its closer to testing, but have a feeling its more like 4...

Feel super tired today, did not want to wake up! Think I could have easily carried on sleeping for another couple of hours! Only today and tomorrow and then I have a day off work, so a nice long weekend.

@Forest27 this is our first month of "not not trying" if you will haha. I haven't been actively trying but not preventing either. We DTD a couple of times in the fertile window (according to Flo) so its a slim chance really since I haven't used OPKs or anything and don't know exactly when I ovulated!

One of my friends had her baby on Saturday and he's the most gorgeous little thing ever! Fingers crossed we all get our own one day soon

Thanks @Forest27. Interesting to hear that about the pill. Fingers crossed it is a lucky month for us all!

@DJmum83 glad I am not the only one who got lots of flashing faces. I had 8 before my peak and was ready to bin it! My peak came on day 9, the last day before the pack says to give up!

I only have 1 test and I stupidly went for an expensive one, so can't really test before AF date as I don't want to waste it. Good luck to everyone!

Hi everyone.
I'm now 5 or 6 dpo the days are dragging.
@Forest27 I know what you mean I keep logging in to app likes it's going to change lol.

I'm getting quite a bit of cramping past few days. But I'm not sure if I'm just looking for them more and would usually be there.
I'm due Af 19/ 20th November.
Fingers crossed for us all.

I used clear blue advanced ovulation sticks, and had 6 days of high before I got my peak.

I'm not going to test until next Friday. Well I'm going to try.

Is this everybody 1st or 2nd? Or more.
I have 3 children already so you would think I would know but I never really tried with them.
This is my last baby I had all mine very close together and it was all a blur.
So I'm looking forward to having a baby whilst my older 3 are at school. Well fingers crossed it happens.
Goodluck all xx

Hi all, can I join please - AF due around 22nd so have only just started my TWW, we have been TTC since July so really hoping this will be our month!xxx

Hi ladies, I hope it is alright for me to join as well. I am in my first TWW, and like @upschittscreek, it is our first time 'not not trying'. It really seems that a part of this process is the mental and emotional aspect, so doing my best to stay positive, as we are all attempting to do.

Have not done any ovulation tests or so, just using Flo, according to which I am 2dpo. Period also due around November 23rd, like @CookieMonster3001.

Thinking I am having symptoms but sure this is in my head, but still hoping not ;-). I have only bought two Clearblue sticks so will try to hold out.

Hoping this will be a lucky time for us all!

Morning Ladies, is it OK if I join? I am currently in my 2nd TWW. 3 or 4DPO (my apps cant seem to decide). Period due around 23rd Nov.

Going to try and hold out till period to test, but the earliest I will allow myself to test is 10DPO (which, who am I kidding, will defo happen) so only another 6 days to go (144 hours... i'm not counting you are..)

No symptoms as yet apart from cramping the last 2 days that are on and off. Feels like AF cramps but not as strong.

Fingers crossed for us all!! Hoping November is our month :)

@Forest27 - I’m due AF 17 Nov and want to know either way just to be done with the wait x
