1DPO - The TWW Begins! Anyone Else?

Very windy here too . Started at 4dpo. Assumed it was something I ate, but has been 3 days now!

Also, TMI but I've had far more discharge than normal. It's actually given me dermatitis down there which isn't something I've suffered with since I was pregnant with DD.

I've talked myself into a really dangerous place . Been reading more about BBT and apparently it's really common to have a slow rise in temperature post-ovulation, which might mean I'm 7DPO rather than 5.

Then my BBT had an unexpected drop this morning which I've convinced myself is an implantation dip.

Totally setting myself up for disappointment!

Whoops posted to soon! Was just going to say... Let me out of the TWW!! 😅

Not testing here but 'symptom' spotting continues. Twinges and alcohol aversion

Tested this morning, 6/7dpo, BFN 😂😂 have to laugh at the ludicrousness of it all.

@Mrsdb90 @NannyPear fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Sending baby dust!!

I caved and POAS and of course BFN 😂😂 I’m 5-7dpo. Had sore boobs for over a week now which isn’t normal for me at all, I keep getting hot flushes and I’m just so exhausted! I’ve got the cheap strips so I’m not too bothered about wasting them, but I’m gonna try hold off for another 7 days...that’s when AF is due 😬 also getting a lot of pimples, which my skin is usually clear until a couple of days before AF...even then I only get one or two 🤔🤔 trying not to think too much into it though 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm going to test on Monday even though I'll be 8dpo at best! But I've got the cheapie strips too so it's worth it just to satisfy the POAS urge 😂

I'm sure I will cave and test on Monday (9 dpo) 🙊
I've got slight cramps this morning just hope AF isn't coming early like she did last month 🤞🤞. Hope you're all doing OK, this TWW is dragging 😩.

@BettyRem I use the first step ones from Amazon. Welcome!

Urgh here's me all "I won't symptom spot". Of course I am! I've been peeing loads more today than usual. Only 4/5dpo so of course it means nothing. Why is the wait so loooooong!

Hey everyone hope I'm okay to join... ttc again after a molar pregnancy earlier this year - so nice to be in the tww with other people! I'm going crazy already - I don't use opks so not too sure where I am, maybe 3dpo? I might start tracking next month which ones do you guys recommend?
@TryingButNotTrying123 Omg I would pay good money to track my egg this should so be a thing!! 😆

How’s everyone getting on? It’s killing me not knowing, I’m so tempted to do a test even though I KNOW it’s going to be negative 😅 been feeling a bit queezy today but idk if it’s because my LB is poorly. Also had a weird pricking/pinching/cramping sensation last night. Felt like someone was poking my womb with a needle 🤔 my boobs have been sore since ovulation which isn’t normal for me either

@WantStickyBean sperm can live up to 5 days inside us, so there’s still a good chance you could have had your egg fertilised 🤞🏻 Praying we all get BFP’s!!!

Hurray - there's loads of us! It would be great if there were loads of BFPs.

I was previously really hopeful for this cycle - I had peak OPK on morning of CD14, DTD every night from CD9-14, but now FF says I didn't ovulate until CD16 . DH was ill on CD15/16 (think I wore him out ) so we didn't BD then. I suppose I'm lucky that he's normally very happy to keep up ('scuse the pun!) with me when I suggest DTD every night during my fertile window.

I'm away at the moment for a few days which has been a lovely break from the stress of the TWW.

I went on a few rides but now I’ll be got cramps in my uterus 😬 idk what to think ahhhh

@TryingButNotTrying123 haha absolutely! Suuuuurely there must be a way with modern medicine these days 🤣
And yeah I'd definitely go to the funfair and have fun!

@TryingButNotTrying123 oh my goodness that's hilarious. I WISH that had been invented! Imagine! 😂

@TryingButNotTrying123
Obviously I don't know at all but, I was asking myself the same before going running last night. Concluded a sticky bean must be able to cling on through various activities otherwise there would be a lot less babies around 😅
Maybe someone else has a more scientific answer!

@NannyPear oh I know, a few months ago I was CONVINCED I was pregnant, then got my period a few days late 🤦🏼‍♀️ Every twinge I jumped on google ahhhhh. You should be able to find out like the day after ovulation if it was successful or not 😂 like how deliveries have the “track your parcel” option, women should have “track your egg” 😂😂

I have a question. The fun fair is in town atm, they don’t have roller coasters or anything like that, just waltzers and crazy hopper and things. Would it be a bad idea if I went on rides at like 6-7dpo? Would it ruin my chances at all? By the time AF is due the fair will be gone 😩😂 I know people who went on rides and were fine but idk...advice?
