Anyone else in the dreaded tww?
I'm currently 2DPO. Would be nice to chat to others in the same waiting game to keep us sane!

@Jessandra oh no 😞 af is still a way off though so definitely time does that bfn to turn into a bfp! I have my fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for you x

@KitQ I so wish I had your self control!!

I tested again this morning and of course BFN! Its only 7 days and 9 days since we DTD and given that I have no idea when I ovulated, I have no idea why I am doing this to myself. I've just ordered 5 cheapies given that I have wasted my FRERs already 😂

mommyofone2019 · 17/11/2020 06:33

@KitQ haha I love this idea about ordering and choosing delivery day 😂

Just done a FRER - BFN, which tbh is what I expected.. only 12DPO & AF due Sunday. Going to try abs hold off testing again until Friday/Saturday. Something v odd going on with me though, yesterday I could have sworn that AF was going to show any minute (a week early) but today I’ve got no symptoms apart from huge, sore boobs 🙈
Why are our bodies so confusing?! 😂🤔

Is anyone else testing today?

KitQ · 16/11/2020 21:15

I’m holding off until Tuesday 24th to test. Ordered a couple of FRERs to feel like I’ve done something but done nominated delivery for Monday so I can’t be tempted to test any earlier. Trying to be strong and patient!

@PurplelsTheColour

Huge congrats ❤️

Bethy1995 · 16/11/2020 20:41

@madeinthe80z

I'm not sure, Ovia is saying 11 days but AF should come on the 22nd if I don't conceive, last month I had a weird cycle so I could well have O'd early.

Who am I kidding I'll take one every few days 🙃 x

Highfalutinlootin · 16/11/2020 20:28

@PurpleIsTheColour congratulations and hope it sticks!

DJmum83 · 16/11/2020 19:56

@PurpleIsTheColour massive congratulations xx

PurpleIsTheColour · 16/11/2020 18:42

I’m 11dpo and af due this thursday. Currently taking it one day at a time and once I’m past the 14dpo mark I’ll be able to relax a bit more xx
So far have a few sharp pains lower left side, light nausea mainly in the morning and hungry all the time. Had a slight drop in temperature of 0.2 this morning but still above my coverline and my lines look darker so I’m not too worried about it.
I’ve always had very strong pms symptoms and sore boobs from 7-13dpo has always been my main sign that af is coming-very weirdly this month my boobs have only just about starting to go sore so this is my main difference compared to pre-af. Both this pregnancy and my MMC happened from dtd one day before O and at 5 days before so this must be my lucky method. I’ve had previous months when I dtd 3 days before, day of and the day after and nothing happened so everything is so relative.
🤞🤞🤞 it’s a sticky bean for me and 🤞🤞 this is a lucky month for all of you xx

Hiya @Bethy1995

All sound like promising symptoms! When are you thinking of taking a test?

Congrats @PurpleIsTheColour strong pink likes! 😀

mommyofone2019 · 16/11/2020 17:55

Wow look at the pink line @PurpleIsTheColour especially compared to the strip test!!
Amazing and congratulations again ❤️
What dpo are you?

Bethy1995 · 16/11/2020 17:50

Hiya,

I hope all you lovely ladies are ok!

So we've been TTC since April and you may have seen me jump on posts before I had to take a break as I became obsessive.

Now after relaxing a little and BD every 2-3 days I'm experiencing something a little different that I wanted to share to see if this is a good sign or not, any ladies got their bfp with the following?

-tiredness like allllllll the time
-frequent urination
-period like cramps
-lots of CM
-Cervix high, soft and open

I'm currently CD25 and have a 30 day cycle so I wouldn't get a bfp until next week most likely if it's meant to be

PurpleIsTheColour · 16/11/2020 17:14

@mommyofone2019, this is my FRER from 5 mins ago and with 1 hour hold only so I think that it looks quite promising🤞🤞 my ic is finally showing a faint line today and there’s slight progression since yesterday in the darkness of the the pink so I have all my fingers crossed it sticks! Am doing a frer every day to monitor the progression and still do bbt, but will stop once I pass the 14dpo mark.
I’m worrying a lot after my MMC so had a look today at scans and will go privately on 05 Dec to check that everything is good (although there’s a big chance there won’t be any heart beat at that point yet). 🙂
🤞🤞🤞 for all of you ladies as I know how tough the TTC journey is and baby dust to all! 😊😊

The dreaded TWW!
Highfalutinlootin · 16/11/2020 16:53

@mommyofone2019 I caved and tested this morning, too. I'm only 6 DPO so BFN of course. I'm a little relieved actually because I've read early implantation can be a sign of an ectopic so at least I can rule that out.

mommyofone2019 · 16/11/2020 14:39

Hey @Emmie12345 👋🏻 welcome to the group!

OP posts:
DJmum83 · 16/11/2020 14:28

@madeinthe80z due Thursday or Friday xx

madeinthe80z · 16/11/2020 13:42

Hi Emmie12345, welcome! Have you tested yet or are you being good?!

madeinthe80z · 16/11/2020 13:42

Hey @DJmum when are you due AF?

Emmie12345 · 16/11/2020 13:31

Hey

Can I join ?

I am due about 20th but not sure when I ovulated this month as by the time I tested I was already cd15 so May have missed it as only got negatives after that .my partner was away until CD 12 so maybe was too late

Hey ho !

Good luck all!

DJmum83 · 16/11/2020 13:28

11dpo and still negative so I'm sure I'm out.
I'm actually feeling ok about it. Just want AF to start so I can move on to next cycle.
How's everybody else doing?
Xx

@Purpleflowers21 I took the vitamins that Luisa Zizzman talks about.. sounds crazy to take advice form her but the reviews are so good. If you follow the link below it takes you to a page where she has written a blog about them. She shares lots of success stories on her Instagram too.

No idea if they worked but my second cycle using them is when on Friday I got what I hope is my BFP!

mommyofone2019 · 16/11/2020 12:18

@PurpleIsTheColour did you test again using a frer?

OP posts:
mommyofone2019 · 16/11/2020 12:17

I definitely feel like it's worst this time around as I'm comparing everything to when I had my daughter! Such a nightmare this tww.
