3dpo thread!

Hello, I’m currently (well.. I think!) 3dpo today and wanted to start a thread for anyone in a similar position. I had mild cramping yesterday, which seemed strange for early dpo but I think anything can happen and our bodies do strange things.

Bit of background info for me, I’m 30, currently on month 9 trying to conceive, had a chemical MC last March so hoping for some positivity. 😩

Hi everyone.

So sorry to hear of peoples loses on here 💕 sending lots of baby dust out and thinking of you all over the next few weeks.

Just wanted to say Hi. I’m 2dpo and on cycle 3 trying for #2. Finding the TTW wait really tough, overthinking everything! Any tips on distraction very welcome 🙈

How’s everyone doing today? xx

I'm so sorry to hear of your losses ♥️

I'm currently 3DPO and feeling very crampy. I am definitely a POAS addict 😬

I am 40, my eldest is 20 and my youngest 17. My partner and I are TTC our first together. During my last pg, my waters broke at 22 weeks and I lost my son at 28 weeks following a cs. This was almost 13 years ago. I'm hoping I'm not too late to try again, although I'm so scared that it could happen again.

Baby dust to all TTC 💕

Hi!

Firstly, I'm sorry to hear about your chemical last March ❤️ I'm also 3dpo. This is cycle 14 after losing our wee boy later on in my pregnancy last July. Really feeling so desperate lately for it to finally be our turn! I started acupuncture last week so I'm hoping it maybe helps 🤞

I've got cramping today as well! The TWW just never gets any easier or quicker, does it 😂 x

I did but it wasn’t as bad as it usually is. Normally it’s quite painful but this time round it was more of a dull ache. Also, normally my boobs would be super painful to touch just after ovulation but it’s hardly anything this time which is strange for me. I think I ovulated quite late too. Who knows this time!!

Hiya, I'm 1dpo today (I think) and this is my first cycle trying to conceive #2. Did you experience any pain/cramping during ovulation? I did but can't be sure it's ovulation pain. Sorry to hear about your chemical, sending you baby dust!
