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?

How are you doing @80sPadme?

dogmom0930 · 07/05/2021 15:10

@80sPadme that's very promising!!

80sPadme · 07/05/2021 14:22

Getting pos opks too, bought them for May if I was out and thought why not

@taytay2020 yeah it's free and you take a picture of the OPK and it actually then tells you the ratio so you know exactly how much LH etc. It does the chart for you and tells you which day you've ovulated etc. I'll attach some photos for you.

@80sPadme oooh I see something super faint! Test again tomorrow with FMU?

@IzzT thank you! Is the app free? I'm guessing you could still use the opks without it?

@taytay2020 I used the easy@home ones with the premom app.

@JuniperAndTonic baby dust to you for this cycle!

@Tangfastic91 never say never! I fully expected for a BFN first cycle, but instead I got my BFP. Sure it was all luck rather than anything special we did, but if anyone is interested I'm happy to upload my chart.

Just checking in and catching up! Sorry everyone who’ve been getting BFNs - got all my fingers crossed for us in May 🤞🏻

Welcome to everyone who has just joined and sending good vibes and baby dust!

I’m just waiting for AF to finish, my OPKs have arrived so I’m ready to try again! Feeling pretty chilled about it at the moment, what will be will be, but I’m sure that feeling won’t last!!

taytay2020 · 07/05/2021 09:22

Hi everyone, I posted in here a couple of weeks ago, and I'm STILL in the tww (day 18 going on a million)! Turns out I actually ovulated a few days later than I thought. 🤦‍♀️ Lesson learnt - next month I'll keep using opks every day whether I think I've already ovulated or not! I'm not out yet, but I think AF is due today or tomorrow.

Does anyone have a recommendation for good opks strips? I'm running low on one step ones but I don't think they work very well for me anyway.

Tangfastic91 · 07/05/2021 07:54

Going to try and wait until 12DPO which should be 16 May. I'm not expecting it to have worked first go though, so prepared for BFN. I seem to fit most of the symptoms for endo (somewhat mild compared to some poor people), but don't want the invasive diagnosis, so expect I could have issues TTC. I'll see if anything sticks over the next 6 months or so 🤞

80sPadme · 07/05/2021 07:53

I'm going to test again ina bit- so nervous

@K8Tee and @Lalala1985 - sorry this wasn't your month, but sending loads of baby dust for the next cycle!

@angelicamy12 and @Tangfastic91 - when do you guys plan on testing? How's the tww going?

dogmom0930 · 07/05/2021 01:11

Sorry to hear @K8Tee and @Lalala1985! May is our month!!

Baby dust to you for April @Tangfastic91 and @angelicamy12!

Lalala1985 · 06/05/2021 13:05

Tested again yesterday afternoon and evening. The vvvvvv faint lines I could see were still there but a lot fainter by the evening. Tested again this morning with fmu and nothing. 12 DPO now and usually I'd start spotting today and AF would come tomm, so I think I'll stop wasting tests now and just wait for AF. On the plus side I have a week off work next week, so can have some wine.

Tangfastic91 · 06/05/2021 12:43

Sorry to hear @K8Tee. Hopefully next cycle is a BFP for you Flowers

K8Tee · 06/05/2021 09:46

Well AF is here so I'm out this month. Officially onto day 1 of the next cycle. We've got this ladies! X

Tangfastic91 · 06/05/2021 09:24

Hi Ladies, and welcome @angelicamy12. Think I'm at 2DPO so finally in the TWW. Good luck to everyone testing over the next few days 🥳

Fingers crossed you just tested too early @charja100

angelicamy12 · 05/05/2021 18:46

I would love to join. It's only our first month properly TTC and I've been using the Clear Blue Fertility Monitor to track things. I got my peak on Friday, and we did it that night, but didn't manage before of after O so I don't have much hope!

Sorry that I don't know what all the letters mean but I think I am now 5DPO?!

dogmom0930 · 05/05/2021 18:07

@charja100 That's promising! Fingers crossed for you!!

Let's get some more BFPs!

charja100 · 05/05/2021 18:03

That was supposed to say but NOT period pain

charja100 · 05/05/2021 18:02

Thanks @dogmom0930 so I am now 9DPO and BFN this morning but spotting this afternoon and pain on my side but normal period pain. Could possibly be implantation bleed? Will monitor.

Wishing you and @JuniperAndTonic a successful cycle - sending baby dust to you both!

@K8Tee, @80sPadme and @Lalala1985 I have my fingers crossed for you all that this is your month! ✨

I can't wait to hear of mew BFPs it gives me hope!

80sPadme · 05/05/2021 17:02

Thanks @dogmom0930

dogmom0930 · 05/05/2021 13:10

Thanks @IzzT and @K8Tee!

I’m not seeing anything in the photo @Lalala1985, but that doesn’t mean it’s not there in person! Test again tomorrow and see! Fingers crossed for you and @80sPadme!!
