Hey guys,

So I'm in my 6th TWW and roughly 6/7dpos. (Ive stopped monitoring.. for now). I was doing sooo well and now I'm on the obsessive googling stage.

I get a little crampy around this time every month.. I think. 🤣 so I've just been trying to work out what implantation cramps could feel like 🤯

Does anyone else feel like when you aren't TTC the time between periods go super quick but when your in your TWW if feels like the whole of 2020 within that two weeks 🙈

Why can't I just CHILL!!!

Good luck @Chica1990 🤞🤞🤞 and to anyone else doing a test in the next few days 🌟

I’d love to join! First month trying after my ectopic in October. I believe I’m 10 dpo today and my temp is still up. I did a Tesco own test this morning and checked after the time window and there was the faintest of lines but I’m 90% sure it was an evap line.

I don’t know why I’m so early testing this month (can’t remember last time I was since started TTC in July 2019) but I did go mental at DH husband yesterday and he said my boobs are looking big! Obviously could be same for my period though ha.

I’m going to do a FRER tomorrow so wish me luck!

Hi all, so nice to have other people on similar dates Smile

7dpo today (I think) and my back and boobs are killing. No cramps today for the first day in a while though (I always get them around ovulation and they carried on until yesterday. Hope next week flies by!

Melonbee90 · 06/12/2020 12:29

Hey ladies can I join

AF due on 13 only officially ttc on od 🤣 so I doubt I'm pregnant from dtd once in that cycle oh this is my 2nd ttc but some reason I feel a lot more impatient this time round for some reason 🙃

Dreamer30 · 06/12/2020 10:37

Can I join ladies? Sound very similar to you all strangely enough lol 2nd cycle, 7dpo and af due 14th. Had cramps right from od and they're just getting worse with every passing day. My boobs are sore now and heavy and I have bad back ache but that's not unusual for me, it's always playing up lol. I'm really hoping for a bfp before xmas 😊🌲

Hey @bluemagicalsky lower back pains are definitely a good sign!!

It's crazy how much you get to know your body when TTC. Little aches and cramps that I've clearly always had and never noticed!

Definitely a good idea to test then and 🤞🏽 it's a sober 30th party for you.

I was thinking, if I get my BFP around the 13th.. how am I going to explain a sober Christmas to my family. I don't drink much at Christmas anyway but a couple of glasses of wine!

@mooloop yeah definitely worth giving it a go I think. It just confuses me so much haha!

I've attempted SMEP a few times but not actually managed it yet for many reasons

Omg how stressful for you when moving house! 🤞🏽 for you on the 15th and that no AF on the 14th

Hi Ladies!
I'm in the TWW as well. 8DPO. Ive also had bad lower back pain these last few days. Trying not to read too far into it as this is only cycle 2 and after no periods for a long time, I don't know what is normal for me. I'll be testing on the 12th as it's my brothers 30th and I want to know if I can have a drink!

mooloop · 05/12/2020 23:08

@beckyBP yeah I think I would go a bit mad temping tbh but if we end up trying for a long time I'll probably give it a go! I've read on here about the sperm meets egg plan which makes sense but sounds very full on Shock

I think I'll probably test on the 15th if I've not come on by then. I'm moving house on the 14th when AF is due, so that'll be an interesting day of highs and lows if AF shows up on time 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

@mooloop I think implantation happens around 6/7 days doesn't it so could be that? I've got lover abdominal cramps but I get them every month.

I haven't done temping tbh! I don't think I could handle the stress! The only thing I've done is ovulation strips. I'm on my 6th TWW. I think cycle 3 & 4 I got super impatient but I've get quite a lot going on atm which is a distraction.

🤞🏽🤞🏽 for our Christmas BFPs!! I won't be testing until a day after af due. What about you? Xx

@beckyBP due AF on the 14th according to Flo! I've had lower backache for the past couple of days which is unusual for me but seems way too early to mean anything!

This is only our second cycle trying (and we're still pretty casual about it tbh, I'm not doing temping or anything like that yet). So I shouldn't be moaning about the TWW already haha but I'm so impatient Grin what about you?

Awww that will be so lovely if it works out for a Christmas BFP! When do you plan on testing?

Hey @mooloop it's just crazy how the TWW actually slows like down.. 🤯😂

AF due on the 13th for me. How about you?

I'm SO hopefully this is my month as, like the psychopath I am, I've got a little Christmas plan for my fiancé if I get my BFP.

How long have you been TTC? Xx

Joining! Smile the waiting is so slow isn't it.

Think I'm 6DPO today. Fairly convinced AF will show on cue though Hmm

When are you due AF?
