Hi all, so this is my 2nd TWW / symptom spotting thread ❀️

Ovulation day for me is today; 14th Jan.
wondered if anybody else is early in their TWW or fancies keeping me company throughout?

Would love to hear your symptoms / stories πŸ₯°

Hi all, what's everyone's kind of temperature charts around ovulation? I tested my temperature this morning first time (supposedly due to ovulate but I'm very confused with all this) and it's only 35.84, obviously I'm unsure if this is high or low

scandiontheloose · 20/01/2021 11:26

@trackiesandasmokeyeye I'm so impatient I will probably test this weekend, so around 10-11DPO. AF due 28/1 and there is no way I can wait until then πŸ˜‚ at least this time around I'm holding off on the FRERs, think in November I tested like every day from 6DPO πŸ™ˆ

trackiesandasmokeyeye · 20/01/2021 11:07

@scandiontheloose - I am exactly the same, plus pretty bloated too. I really hope this is something. I've just opened my Amazon delivery of FRER. I should be around 7DPO too (not sure if it's 7 or 8), but have shorter cycles so I'd normally expect AF by 26th. If I go on the latest I can imagine AF would arrive, so CD28 (and I've not gone past CD24 since coming off the pill and can't remember having a full 28 days before...) then that would be the 30th, so I'm tempted to do a FRER on the 26th, so 4 days earlier than the latest time for AF I could conceivably imagine and see what it says πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

@trackiesandasmokeyeye Haaaaa omg I was genuinely this morning thinking like "ugh that's it then, hello canesten bye bye pram shopping" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I've had this now since late yesterday and it's not getting any more intense as such which I know if it's thrush it very quickly gets unbearable.

Also felt really gassy, like burping and stuff for no reason. Even before eating/drinking anything this morning.

7DPO today, trying to fight the urge to testπŸ˜‚

trackiesandasmokeyeye · 20/01/2021 10:36

@scandiontheloose - yes! Exactly that! Not full blown thrush just an uncomfortableness that feels like it might be itchy at the moment, does that even make sense? Hopefully it's a positive sign for both of us, but I'm going to feel such an idiot in a week when AF arrives and I end up searching for Canesten 🀣

scandiontheloose · 20/01/2021 10:31

@trackiesandasmokeyeye omg I can't believe you said that cos I've had a bit of uncomfortable itching happening too but it's not as full on as it would be with thrush and obvs I googled it....and it could be a good sign too. That or it's thrush. Also sick of googling πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ

trackiesandasmokeyeye · 20/01/2021 08:28

@scandiontheloose definitely fingers crossed it is good news, although now I think I might be getting thrush 😑

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 21:30

@trackiesandasmokeyeye hahahhaha the CM logging is real rn πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I have definitely noticed more CM and would normally be in the "dry" part of the cycle by now. Hope this is good news for us all πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

trackiesandasmokeyeye · 19/01/2021 20:31

Ladies I feel the same about CM, who knew πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ - have definitely noticed more and creamy than I would usually at this time of the month (there's part of me wondering if I'm just not registering it usually, but I hope it's not that).

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 20:25

@Lovelily94 will do! I'm sure the googling won't stop until I test. 7DPO updates to follow tomorrow πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ xx

Lovelily94 · 19/01/2021 20:19

@scandiontheloose I know my google searches are non stop! I’m not doing myself any favours but I just can’t stop! Never thought I’d be so interested in my own CM either πŸ˜‚ I am sending so many positive thoughts your way I hope it’s good news for you! Let me know if you get any news symptoms. X

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 20:14

@Lovelily94 ahhh love a good TMI chat πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ i got some tests from the shop earlier. They're just sitting in the utility cupboard now....trying so hard not to test πŸ™ˆ creamy CM sounds good based on my endless google searches. Basically anything else apart from dry is what you want. Who knew I'd be this excited about CM πŸ˜‚

Lovelily94 · 19/01/2021 20:11

@scandiontheloose nothing is TMI to me right now πŸ˜‚ I had nothing since ovulation untill yesterday when it was Ewcm, and all today it’s just creamy and a lot more then usual! Stomach cramps in left side really bad tonight! My amazon order of tests just came and got me all excited again!

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 20:05

@Lovelily94 question....(since we are on the same cycle πŸ˜‚) and also sorry if it's TMI, but how's your CM levels? I thought mine was kinda drying up. Still felt more "wet" than I normally would at this time of my cycle but also just had EWCM. Based on my endless googling that should be god but until it's a positive test I don't really trust anything πŸ˜‚

Lisyloo725 · 19/01/2021 17:30

Hi all,
Im TTC at 40, after a miscarriage and ectopic in 2020 😩
I’m due to ovulate this Friday but will start my OPK tomorrow just to check what’s what.
Nice to meet you all! I’m new on here! πŸ‘‹πŸΌ

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 17:19

@Lovelily94 it's like we're the same πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I'm also very new on the TTC journey and trying so hard not to pick on every possible symptom but it's hard. Fingers crossed we'll both get a positive test this weekend πŸ™ˆ

Lovelily94 · 19/01/2021 17:07

I think I will also do the same! Fingers crossed for you. I’ve had pulling and pains in my lower stomach last night, I’m just so tired ( could be being on furlough and being lazy!) headache past two days and more CM then I usually have. I just don’t know if it’s me picking up on every slight thing though, it’s our first time ttc so I’m just tracking everything so if it doesn’t happen this month I know maybe what to look out for next? I’m so confused by it all to be fair.

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 17:03

@Lovelily94 I think I will give in and test Saturday/Sunday, no way can I wait until 28th πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
I'm feeling ok, keeping a wee note of all my symptoms. Currently have a niggling back ache, had some lighting pains in my crotch last night and kinda lost my appetite. Even cuppa tea tastes weird πŸ™ƒ
How are you feeling?

Lovelily94 · 19/01/2021 16:59

@scandiontheloose woo! Well I was planning on maybe this weekend! I’m trying to hold out as long as I can! Every niggle or pain Is driving me crazy πŸ˜‚ how are you feeling? When do you think you will test? X

CookieMonster3001 · 19/01/2021 16:51

@Meg87 sorry for your loss! I also mc just after xmas at around 6 weeks so understand how you feel. My cycle this month has been crazy and I ovulated a week later than expected but going to see how it goes! I am guessing from your username your an 87 baby! I am too :)

CookieMonster3001 · 19/01/2021 16:50

@trackiesandasmokeyeye I think that's a good idea, I would probably leave it to the latest date (28th) just to be on the safe side! Yep frustrating as heck!! Mine moved my ovulation about 3 times this month and each time it gave me an anxiety attack!

@Dayseebubs thank you lovely!! tbh keeping my mind focused on TTC was the only thing to get me through the mc. I have heard so many stories of people catching straight after so hoping that happens for me. I use OPKS and track my BBT. I don't really get an awful lot of fertile CM so have never really been able to use that as a method.

Meg87 · 19/01/2021 16:48

Hey everyone - can I join? I had a good clear positive on a (cheapie) OPK yesterday so I think I'm probably ovulating today, CD15.

My partner and I tried for a couple of cycles last year, managed to get pregnant the first cycle but had a very very early miscarriage (I think I was just less than 6 weeks). We tried again the next cycle but it was a weird cycle anyway, and no joy. We decided to leave it for a few cycles and we're back to trying again! Have DTD a few times over the last couple of days so we'll see! Really really hate the waiting bit 😣

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 16:40

@Dayseebubs just Flo app and CM logging (keeping track of cervical mucus changes throughout the cycle). Will consider getting ovulation tests if it's a BFN this cycle

Dayseebubs · 19/01/2021 16:21

Oh can I ask you guys what methods you’re using to track your ovulation?

scandiontheloose · 19/01/2021 16:19

@Lovelily94 ahhh cycle twins. I ovulated on 13/1 and AF due 28/1. When are you thinking about testing? You waiting until you're late or are you crazy like me and probs gonna test too early πŸ˜‚
