1DPO - Anyone want to join for the 2WW?

434 replies

IzzT · 20/04/2021 20:20

Hello! First month TTC. Currently 1DPO, no symptoms as of yet, but already feeling stressed at the thought of not knowing if we were successful for two more weeks! Worried we didn't BD enough, we did every other day during the fertile window including day before O. Anyone got any advice or just want to join in the conversation to get us through the wait?

Thanks holding onto the it could be too early hope. Ahhh no way, small world! X

Daisyrobin123 · 01/05/2021 08:03

@K8Tee Sorry to hear about your BFN 😞 theres still some hope though it could still be told early! I'm Nottingham too 🙂 x

K8Tee · 01/05/2021 07:45

Morning ladies. Just my daily test update - 11dpo bfn. I feel like I'm coming down with something and still have period type mild pains. Only have 1 test left so might hold on to it now in case af doesn't come ( lol I have no self control). We are off to a family farm park today so that will take my mind off it for a bit :) hope you are all well and have a lovely day. Ps was just wondering where everyone is from? I'm Nottingham xxx

@80sPadme I’ve seen the range of 6-12 days and just depends on the person. I tend to feel blot and digestive issues around that time in my cycle too!

80sPadme · 30/04/2021 23:23

I'm 6dpo and I am not good in my belly at all, mega bloated, bad cramps. When does implantation usually happen as I'm feeling pretty weird. My boobs are mega sore and I have been feeling worry and lightheaded all day.
May all be psychosomatic but who knows.

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 20:16

Oops you beat me to it @IzzT Wink

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 20:15

Welcome @thisisouryear! I think stats say that implantation doesn't usually happen until 6-12 dpo and is more often on the latter half of that window. So, lots of time left for a BFP for you!

@thisisouryear hello! Welcome! It would be very unusual to get a positive test at 7DPO - that would mean you'd have to have implanted at 5DPO which is pretty much unheard of. Most people get a positive 48 hours after implantation and 8-10DPO is the most common time to implant so therefore 10-12DPO is when you are most likely to get your first positive. Saying that, some people don't get a positive until we'll after AF is due. You're definitely not out yet! 😃

@Lalala1985 oh no! Sounds like work is very busy at the moment. I know stress can play a part in TTC but just think of how many people get accidentally pregnant when they're stressed/drinking/unwell etc. The body can do amazing things even under stress. Feel free to post a pic if you want opinions on possible lines 🥰 and keep smiling - now your product has launched hopefully things will settle a little bit!

6DPO today and really hoping work stress isn't affecting me. I work in tech and had a product coming out today with loads of last minute changes, was working until 1am last night then couldn't sleep then been working straight since 7am. And I still have more to do 🙁
My mood is pants, my boobs hurt and all I can think of is that this isn't going to help my chances.
Already pissing on sticks though, and I swear I can see something but it's more likely my mind is playing tricks on me as it's too early.

Lalala1985 · 30/04/2021 19:10

@IzzT it's meant to double every 48 hours and that looks doubly strong to me.

There's still time for BPFs @JuniperAndTonic and @dogmom0930 - you can implant up to 12DPO and then you wouldn't get a positive test until 48 hours after then.

So comparing my internet cheapy line progression this evening. There's 48 hours between these two tests - anyone know if this looks about right for progression? I still feel like it's still pretty light, but I'm not really sure when I should expect it to be as dark as the control line?

1DPO - Anyone want to join for the 2WW?

@dogmom0930 I hope so! I’d like to say I’m not going to test again unless AF is late but I know I’ll be testing again tomorrow morning 😅

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 15:37

@JuniperAndTonic My thoughts exactly! Hoping it just means that we're not too far from our BFPs!

JuniperAndTonic · 30/04/2021 15:34

@dogmom0930 I have the exact same symptoms! Nausea and headache all day yesterday, a bit better today but it’s still there! I’m baffled! But I would’ve thought if the HCG was high enough to cause symptoms it would show on a test? Who knows! It’s so confusing!!

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 14:09

@IzzT I think I read on this forum at one point that that has happened to others who went on to have a full healthy pregnancy! Smile I hope that this turns into my BFP like you!!

@JuniperAndTonic and @K8Tee hope you guys get your BFPs soon!

@dogmom0930 I get worse before my BFP. Felt bloated and nauseated for a couple of days. Today I feel completely normal so that makes me a little worried 😂

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 13:12

Sorry for your bfns @JuniperAndTonic and @K8Tee! I’m 11dpo and also tested negative this morning. I’m just baffled though. I had nausea most of the morning to early afternoon yesterday and woke up with it again today. Headache some yesterday and just feel like garbage in general today. If this is my body playing tricks, it should win an Oscar 😜

K8Tee · 30/04/2021 13:08

Sorry for your bfn @JuniperAndTonic too. I've been reading and it could still just mean that we implanted a bit later. Here's to hoping xx

JuniperAndTonic · 30/04/2021 12:49

Hi ladies,
Hope you’re all doing okay!
BFN again for me this morning at 11DPO!

Sorry to hear yours was negative as well @K8Tee.

I’m already thinking about next cycle as I’m pretty sure I’m out for this month! Told husband we’d have to DTD more month to maximise our chances - he didn’t object 😂
Period due on Monday and then I can move on!!

Hope we can still keep chatting on this thread and those who get their BFP keep updating us too!

Tangfastic91 · 30/04/2021 08:29

Morning all. Congrats on the definite BFP @IzzT! Fingers crossed for you @K8Tee

K8Tee · 30/04/2021 06:41

Morning ladies. Well 10dpo and negative first response this morning so not looking good again this month There's still time but obvs the later it gets the more hope is lost. :( still feeling quite sick and crampy so just hoping it isn't af on her way now (4 ish days) x

@charja100 even with a negative test that doesn't mean you're out as your still before AF is due at the weekend. If you want to be safe then no alcohol, or at least very limited - but ultimately whatever you want to do to make you happy! You're still the most important person and you need to stay healthy and happy for any potential baby whether it's this month or next! 🥰

charja100 · 29/04/2021 21:25

@IzzT yeah I know what you mean but I'm supposed to be out on a bit of a boozy day with friends so don't want to go overboard if I shouldn't. Do you think Saturday morning would be too early to do a FRER? What does everyone else think, what would you do?

TIA x
