4 days DPO - anyone else in the TWW

Also sorry I forgot to add, good luck to every down this month who’s also now on TWW

Hey just wanted to join in as I reached peak ovulation on Wednesday. Since having a miscarriage I seem to spot for 3 days at least before the bleeding is heavier. Should I count CD1 as the day the spotting starts or is that the day the bleeding gets heavier? Thanks

Sorry that was meant for @Grace185

@TedandTeddy

Hi

Due to you only recently coming off the pill (they may take time to regulate) my first assumption would be this is your period. How are you tracking ovulation? My periods were out of sync at the start so I started using opks and they really help to estimate when you will ovulate.

Saying that, last year when I got pregnant (it didn’t stick) I bled for 3 days straight, thought it was my period and then 5 days later when I looked at my calendar discovered I was due on my period then so took a test and I was pregnant.

I would wait a few days and then take a test, if it was implantation then hcg should show up a few days after.

Hope this helps x

Hi all hope you dont mind me joining in. Im 9dpo today been having symptoms for 4 or 5 days but BFN yesterday and today!

@Grace185 was the 30 days last cycle from the first day of your withdrawal bleed?

I've definitely read about implantation bleeding, and how it's not enough to fill a pad so it definitely could be as it's around the right time of your cycle too!

My pains were lower down and not specifically on one side, I was so sure my period was coming as it was just that dull ache but it hasn't arrived. It's just a waiting game isn't it!

@kblue1 lots of people don't have any symptoms at all when pg so don't lose hope yet!

@Grace185 it's could be implantation! Everybody is different. How many DPO are you?

Congrats @MushroomQueen

@EmiGoiko thanks, not sure when I’ll test yet, what about you?

Still no symptoms, the tww takes ages...

@TedandTeddy snap haha. My oh is 29 too.

So I’m looking for some advice. Yesterday was cd25. I’ve been having sharp pains to the left of my pelvis area for a few days. Once a day for the last few days I’ve had creamier cm but then dried up again be the end of the day and have almost none all other times I’ve wiped. Last night after I went to the loo at about 23:30 I had bright red blood (not loads but a good amount) mixed with thick cm. Like brighter than I’ve ever seen at the start of my period. Only one wipe full though. So I put a pad in and went back to bed and the cramps got worse but not exactly like period pains. I’m normally a 30-35d cycle girl but have only had one full cycle off the pill which was 30d so may have changed now. Only thing is this morning I’ve had pains across my pelvis but I’m completely dried up again and no blood at all. I’ve heard about implantation bleeding but that’s meant to be brown etc. I have no idea really. I’m going to wait and see if af turns up as I’m not due until Friday and then maybe test then. Does anyone have any idea?

@MushroomQueen thank you for the advice that's really helpful. And huge congratulations on your BFP!! I bet you are so excited

@TedandTeddy you may need to wait a month to get your body back into a noticeable pattern however, my cycle started on the 24th December and I ovulated 3/4/5 of jan I have shortish cycles so it's possible that's when you had the ewcm it was then

Hey guys, could I please join :) would be lovely to have some support.

I’m not sure when/ if I have ovulated this month as stopped taking the combined pill on 24 Dec, withdrawal bleed 29 Dec and been trying to track my cm, had some ewcm early Jan which seems way too early but then had some more around 12 Jan (Which included traces of blood!?) and then a notable ache in lower tummy the next day which could be ovulation!? Would love some advice on that. Since then my cm has become increasingly thick and opaque - today being the thickest day. Is this what usually happens? I’m not used to any discharge on the pill so it’s all new to me!

@Grace185 I’m also 29 and DH too and we are also trying for baby #1. Completely agree with finding it mentally tough, I thought I would be completely chill and having a bit of anxiety about it all even though it’s only the first month trying so I know I’m being silly, it’s just hard as the days take forever!!

Keeping everything crossed for you Emi

@MushroomQueen oh no way I've never heard of the metallic taste! That's so exciting huge congrats 🎈🎊 x

@Rmd123 I had implantation bleeding (cd 18and 19, 5+6dpo)which I have never had b4 with my 2 boys and a v v early miscarriage in November. So that was a new thing. I was very tired this week. More that normal, really struggled to wake up, was late taking kids to school 2 days this week. Oops. For 3 past days I've had tightening sensations a dull ache but not like a period. But I tested negative on Wednesday and Thursday. Yesterday's and today's metallic taste was the for sure sign. I've got it each time and more sensitive boobs. It's normal around period but yesterday and today are particularly sensitive

@MushroomQueen aw I'd say he's gorgeous!

Did you have any sunrooms before you BFP? X

Are vivid dreams a sign? I'm 9DPO and last night had a very strange dream! 🤔

@Rmd123 Portuguese (I live here) oh is Portuguese. My kids are 50/50 Brit and Portuguese tho my eldest looks so British blonde hair my pale face nothing at all like his dad dark skin and hair. Looks like his dad has stolen him when they go out lol. It's funny people look so confused until they see me and go ohhhhh that's why

@MushroomQueen huge congrats how exciting!!!

Let's hope you share your baby dust with all of us 😁 Out of curiosity what language are the pregnancy tests in? So cool seeing pregnant in different languages 😃
