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

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!

@Jaymar congratulations, so pleased for you!! I feel like me and you are in the same boat as we've had MMCs and I am equally pleased my body has reset and I feel positive at the end of each cycle as I know I've achieved a BFP before, and can do it again.

I'm sure you're feeling cautious excitement right now, me too and I'm sure I won't feel it's real until AF doesn't visit and won't feel super excited until I've hit 12 weeks.

Just stay happy, healthy and positive and the rest will take care of itself 😊

@Arrierttyclock no harm in testing tomorrow if you have a FRER but don’t be disheartened if it’s BFN. It’s still early days 🤞🏼

Arrierttyclock · 23/02/2021 21:05

@Jaymar was convinced I'd get a BFP even tho I know it's too early. And it was a BFN🤦🏽‍♀️ wondering if I should test tomorrow FMU as I'll be 10 DPO... watcha think?

Jaymar · 23/02/2021 10:08

@Arrierttyclock nausea on the bus sounds promising!

Jaymar · 23/02/2021 10:07

I think I’m 11 or 12 dpo. I’ll do a Clearblue weeks indicator on Friday then force myself to stop testing. Even if it doesn’t work out it’s good to know my body is back to normal after the MC. Look forward to seeing more BFP’s on this thread!

WonderCity · 23/02/2021 09:00

@HaresHoping Wine! Yes! I could do with a glass but it’s only 9am... truly stressed lol.

@Jaymar wooooo!!!! This is great news. Nail length could be a new entry on to our charts. Interesting. Ahh lovely, will you test again on Friday? I got a bit obsessed last time (last time HA!) and tested every couple of days to see the line grow darker. I still have the pictures somewhere.

Arrierttyclock · 23/02/2021 08:53

@Jaymar ah wow huge congratulations! How many DPO are you?

I'm 9 DPO atm and felt so sick on the bus I thought I was going to have to get off. I have some FRERS being delivered today but I also went to boots this morning as I couldn't wait. But it was all boarded up. Maybe it's a sign 🤦🏽‍♀️

HaresHoping · 23/02/2021 08:52

Oh @Jaymar CONGRATULATIONS! I'm so so pleased for you. Crossing everything you have a lovely sticky bean ❤️ yay we've got another BFP everybody 🥳🥳🥳

@WonderCity argh so annoyed on your behalf but like @GCB1234 says you're not out yet. I know how you feel though. Bless you, thanks for being so lovely. You totally deserve a BFP too! As do we all ❤️ it will happen when it happens, I need to learn some patience 😂 also that is the best incentive ever for AF tbh - a couple of weeks off sounds like bliss! With some wine! Ahhhhhhhh

The TWW is such a rollercoaster but when AF arrives I always get a good feeling of ok, let’s bring on the next fertile week and start planning my sexy underwear 😂

I’ve never done an early test before but I have had tiredness, stretchy cramps and my nails have grown really fast (there’s a random one for you!) just like my last pregnancy (MMC).

Got a BFP this morning but me and DH will hold off on celebrating until Friday, AF due on Thursday 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

TWW starts... ovulation day today! Anyone else?
WonderCity · 23/02/2021 08:40

Morning all. Of course I also tested this morning and it’s still a bfn. I looked at it for a good five minutes before I admitted that to myself. I e taken to shining my phone torch through it and you can see where the line is meant to be but it’s all white. Need some pink!! I’ve got one FRER left so will probably do that tomorrow although I feel out this month. I know there’s still time but i guess it’s the very very negative tests that are putting me off lol
@HaresHoping I feel like you’re super dedicated with the charting and therefore definitely deserve a bfp this month! And @GCB1234 it’s super hard to reign it in, I can relate. Just think, in a few days if AF turns up we can have roughly two weeks off obsessing about it lol.

HaresHoping · 23/02/2021 08:34

@GCB1234 ugh it's so frustrating isn't it? I'm not a fan of this TWW thing 😂 fingers crossed for you my dear! And yes if not let it be quick so we can crack on again!

GCB1234 · 23/02/2021 08:16

@HaresHoping You're not out out till AF comes! But I understand your thought process. Lets see! If AF is coming for us lets hope it's soon

GCB1234 · 23/02/2021 08:03

FRER with FUM = BFN
I've kept the sample to try a CBER but then I am thinking I am completely out of control and obsessed and maybe need to think about reigning myself in!

HaresHoping · 23/02/2021 07:40

Think I'm out ladies. RHR (orange line on chart) seems to be starting to dip as does my BBT. Pretty gutted as I'd convinced myself, more fool me I guess 😂 AF due on Friday and I just want it to hurry up and arrive now. So annoyed as my RHR has never done this before but I think my body was trolling me lol. Best of luck to everyone else testing, everything crossed for you! 🤞🏻

@xRRx I hope your anxiety settles, you so deserve to enjoy this experience

xRRx · 22/02/2021 21:38

@GCB1234 @HaresHoping thanks ladies! I feel a whole new set of feelings today, mostly anxious. Hoping for a healthy pregnancy this time.

@GCB1234 that 10:30am test was puzzling but looks so promising! Will you test again with FMU?

GCB1234 · 22/02/2021 14:55

@Jaymar @WonderCity my big boy boober is 2 1/2 years... and feeds through the night like a newborn still! Tried everything to wean and he isn't having any of it so have given up and will assume he will stop by the time he is 15? You'd think ;-)

@wondercity hehe!! good point actually - amazon coming today - he can't see the transactions I don't think but it's saying due when he'll be home so I will try not to look shifty as I put it to one side to open later... (never happens right?!)

HaresHoping · 22/02/2021 14:29

@xRRx just popped on to check in and OMG! I am thrilled for you lovely. Huge congratulations 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 hope it's a lovely sticky bean for you! Sending loads of luck your way xxx

WonderCity · 22/02/2021 14:10

@GCB1234 ah so those times roughly work out to around 10dpo ish. That makes sense. I love amazon for tests, speedy delivery but that also means my OH knows how many tests I’m getting through so I’ve had to get creative and find supplies elsewhere lol. I’m breastfeeding too. My son is 17 months so doesn’t feed much now but you’re right there’s a barrier there. Will the FRER be here on time for you to test tomorrow FMU?

Jaymar · 22/02/2021 14:04

@GCB1234 An older boober 😂 Let us know if you have any luck next time you test!

GCB1234 · 22/02/2021 13:49

@WonderCity *DTD was 13th Feb... My brain is mush with it all!

GCB1234 · 22/02/2021 13:47

@WonderCity The top two were CB 6 days early tests, I just did an ASDA 4 days early and it was a BFN. I am running out of test supplies! I have more coming! We DTD Sat 13th Oct, a throws of passion thing, and I have no idea of my cycle a. because my coil only came out last month (wasn't agreeing with me) and b. I am breastfeeding although he's an older boober now it still affects things - I think. And so the crazed testing continues... I have some FR coming later via Amazon....

WonderCity · 22/02/2021 13:23

I’m also 10dpo today, so I looked back at the test I did this morning and it’s still as blank as it ever was. I’d certain say there’s hope for you. @GCB1234

WonderCity · 22/02/2021 13:22

@GCB1234 ooo that’s interesting. I mean I definitely see something but I see why you’re confused given the other two sticks. You think we’d be experts by now with all the sticks we’ve pee’d on. I expect if you lined all my sticks up they circumference the world at least once. What sensitivity are those non digital ones?
