TWW starts... ovulation day today! Anyone else?

332 replies

HaresHoping · 11/02/2021 20:58

Hi ladies!

Anyone else ovulated today? I'm pretty sure I did after a peak OPK yesterday and now starting the dreaded TWW... my first as we're on cycle 1. I'm CD16 with a generally 30 day cycle.

Would love some company as I inevitably drive myself absolutely loco over the next fortnight 😂

Any early symptoms I can look out for to keep me occupied?!

Good luck to everyone!

@HaresHoping that's great will power if you resist until the 5th. But I agree it's better to test when not working to be able to react to the outcome. And by that point hopefully you won't need line eyes!

Oh I hope so much for you that you get your positive. You deserve it so much. Everything crossed🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm good thanks. Once you get your BFP you'll realise the TWW is a doddle compared to waiting for your first scan. Time is moving so slowly. Yes booked a private one as 12 weeks for NHS scan is too far away, especially after MMC last time. I'd just rather know if it's viable or not at this stage. It's in a few days 😬. Feeling hopeful yet fully managing expectations 🤞🏻

Ahh thank you @xRRx, fingers crossed though it has dropped by a beat today. Just hoping it doesn't keep dropping as that's what happened last month with the chemical 😕 I'm really reading into everything too much now!

Not planning on testing until 5th April. Due AF on Tuesday/ Wednesday but don't want to test on a day I have to work. Plus if it is a chemical like last time I'd rather not get hopes up too much. It's nerve wracking isn't it 😔

How are you getting on today? Have you booked any scans or anything?

@Jaymar aww I hope you're ok. I have got v v mild nausea a few food aversions and have been sticking to very bland foods.

@HaresHoping your RHR sounds promising! How many DPO are you now and when are you planning to test?

@Jaymar oh god that sounds awful bless you. My friends have suffered with the nausea too and it sounds really hard. Their tips were to eat loads of carbs and, this is gross but... sweet tea is okay on the way back 😂😳 really hope it settles soon for you lovely x

I’m about 8 weeks and feeling rotten. Got constant nausea. There’d better be a cute baby at the end of all this or I’ll be raging

Ahh that's good to know @Jaymar! I had a huge spike with the chemical last month and I've seen lots of other ladies say they've had spikes too so I agree! Hoping that it's not just a fluke this time - only way to know is to wait unfortunately 🙄😂 how are you feeling? How far along are you now?

OP posts:

Jaymar · 25/03/2021 15:55

@HaresHoping Just had a look back at my RHR history over the past 9 months or so. My usual resting range is 51-65. But when I was in my first trimester last year and in this current first trimester the range is 57-79. So I definitely think there’s something in it.

Morning everyone! How are we all going? What DPO is everyone at now?

I must admit I had a really low day yesterday. Felt so weepy and hyper self critical. I figured it must be hormones of some description and am just hoping it's pregnancy related rather than an early appearance of the witch!

I woke up at 4.30am feeling out of sorts and eventually managed to get back to sleep. I've had a spike in BBT and RHR but could of course be down to the funny night of sleep (though I'm secretly hoping it's implantation and that was why I woke up... time will tell lol)

Hope everyone is doing okay!

TWW starts... ovulation day today! Anyone else?

Oh bless you both @xRRx and @Jaymar I'll be thinking of you. I'm sure everything will be fine but must feel so nerve wracking. Crossing everything it's a lovely positive experience for you both ❤️ def let us know how you get on.

I'm feeling wiped today. Might be due to the lack of lunch break and a busy day but just so so tired. Feel slightly funny in tummy as well, hard to explain, and a bit delirious?! Haha. Hoping all good signs 🤞🏻 my RHR has risen again today which has made me so hopeful.

OP posts:

xRRx · 22/03/2021 14:02

@Jaymar this is exactly how I feel too. Fingers crossed for us both. Let me know how it goes xx

Jaymar · 22/03/2021 11:17

@xRRx I’ve booked an early scan for next week too. Really dreading it but also feel like I need to know if things seem to be progressing ok or not. Fingers crossed for us both.

Can’t wait to see more BFP’s!

xRRx · 22/03/2021 08:14

@HaresHoping looking good!
I'm itching to see some lines already!!
Looks like another 6-7 days to go for you?

Sorry late reply I've been trying to keep busy! Things are going fine but a little more anxious this week as it's about the time I started getting spotting before my MMC last time. I have a scan next week so just need to get through this week. Feeling hopeful but at the same time not getting hopes up.

Thank you lovely @Tabbycat92 😁 fingers crossed!

Well everyone, I'm already getting too hopeful as my RHR seems to be slowly on the rise again. Not as sharp as last month with the chemical but it's off in the right direction ☺️

Below you can see my RHR in orange on the FF chart, this month's Fitbit chart, and then the last 3 months on Fitbit which shows how much it spiked last month. So interesting!

Tabbycat92 · 20/03/2021 09:04

@HaresHoping I waited a day last time to tell DH and he was properly miffed haha.

I had cramps, and lower back ache. Also nausea to the smell of coffee which I usually LOVE. Oddly I had, and still have, very minimal CM which is what made me feel like I was out.

I've got my fingers crossed for you!
(btw I love your username 🐇)

@Tabbycat92 aww that's lovely! Yeah I'd tell mine straight away too, he's already said he'd rather just know and not to faff about with any reveals 😂 I do have a tendency for the dramatic so I get why he had to tell me this lol.

So symptoms I'm already obsessing over...

Sneezing - remember this from last time but y'know... it's spring

Creamy CM - randomly logged it starting exactly same day last cycle when I had the chemical
RHR - slowly going in the right direction but will obv have to wait and see there!

Hows everyone else doing? What DPO are we all?

OP posts:

Tabbycat92 · 20/03/2021 08:34

@HaresHoping yeah I told him 😊 was too excited to keep it secret and plan something big 😂 I'm so glad you can see it too!
How are you? Many symptoms yet?

Tabbycat92 · 20/03/2021 06:46

And a vvfl today! Slightly darker, but still light - but I am only using ICs and 10dpo ☺️

Tabbycat92 · 20/03/2021 06:34

@HaresHoping 7dpo was too early, BUT I had a vvvvfl yesterday at 9dpo! So I've got my fingers crossed.

Hey @Lolajames! Yay for the flashing smiley 🥳🥳🥳 good luck! Hope you get sorted with the headaches, that sounds awful. Hope this is a really good month for you lovely ❤️🤞🏻

I am 💯 symptom spotting yes 😂 4DPO so way too early but noticed creamy white CM so hoping that's a good sign - weirdly I logged the same thing on the same day last month with the chemical so 🤞🏻

How is everyone this eve?

mrssunshinexxx · 19/03/2021 10:23
