Hi all

Currently now in my tww, ttc #1!!

Very nervous this time around as we’ve made a definite effort this month to conceive so really hoping this is our month.

Our 8th tww and it’s never any easier!

Anybody like to join me?

I think I’ll probably wait until I’m a couple of days late, if I do end up being late that is! I’ve never not wanted af so much😆x

@calimc83 I have loads of easy@home ones but I imagine they’re not very sensitive! I don’t dare buy frers because I absolutely know for a fact I’ll test too early still and I’ll just buy more and wasted a load of money😂x

Crazy we all have the same spotty symptom 😂 I think I'll test at 10dpo if I have any symptoms if not maybe 11/12dpo 🤞🏻🙏🏻 so end of next week

calimc83 · 28/01/2022 21:17

@Tjsmjs I know!! Erm maybe Friday?? A whole week away...think that would make me 11 DPO..what about you? X

Tjsmjs · 28/01/2022 21:10

We sound like a right spotty bunch. 😂
Hoping it is all good signs for us.

When is everyone planning on testing?

I am going to try and hold out until cycle day 28 which would make me 3-4 days late.

calimc83 · 28/01/2022 21:06

@Justwantbaby1 same!!!!!!! Argh...I don't have any Frers..just some cheapies...debating whether to order some Frers for next week 🙈x

@calimc83 I’m dying to test even though it’d be the biggest waste of time, so I really need to rein myself in😂x

@calimc83 I feel you! Everything is a symptom to me right now and I know deep down it’ll probably be af as most of them are usual pre af symptoms… apart from the odd couple😂x

@xidrinkwinex it’s driving my up the wall, I’ve even got a spot on my forehead, I don’t think I’ve had a spot there in at least two years😂😂 also have a weird taste in my mouth when I drink today, diluted juice is tasting very odd so I haven’t drunk much today and I usually drink a hell of a lot😂x

@Justwantbaby1 my face has also broken out! I never really get spots. So it's very strange. Either that or i do usually and I just a don't notice 😂

Woken up today and my skin has broken out soooo bad! I usually have pretty bad skin anyway which I have to use medicated cream for but this is just something else!!! I don’t remember the last time my skin was this bad😩

@Tjsmjs I think my spots are stress related aswell tbh, I have very sensitive skin and it always reacts when I'm stressed etc, got my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

@Tjsmjs I’m very good, apart from absolutely knackered😂 work is definitely not going great for me either, the house we moved into is further away from where I work so it’s around an hours drive so I’m not getting home until nearly 7, it’s awful not having actual time to do much when I’m getting home😬

Tbh the more I symptom spot, the more I’m feeling like it’s not gonna be our month, why am I like this😂x

Tjsmjs · 27/01/2022 19:35

How’s everyone doing?

@arianasky and @calimc83 Im some spotty this month. I think it is stress related. Work is horrendous atm and my toddler has quit sleeping. But who knows.

My sore boobs have disappeared so trying not to get my hopes up.

It is cycle 8 for us (finally worked it out)

calimc83 · 27/01/2022 17:50

@Justwantbaby1 I never managed to go down the 'if it happens route'..I get obsessed straight away 😆 x

calimc83 · 27/01/2022 17:49

@arianasky oooh everything gets over thought! 😆 x

arianasky · 27/01/2022 17:26

@calimc83 I also had a spot this morning and my skin feels a bit dry but I suffer on and off with those so could be anything haha! It's so crazy isn't it how we all overthink things 😂

@calimc83 they definitely do!
We haven’t be consciously trying that whole time though, we moved into our first house in November so that’s when we decided to start trying properly… before then it’s was more just a ‘if it happens, it happens’ but we stopped using any protection not long after we started buying the house (which was in February!!!) because we were aware it can take a long time, just wasn’t expecting it to be this long😂🙄x

calimc83 · 27/01/2022 16:53

@Justwantbaby1 they just role into one don't they?! 😫 x

calimc83 · 27/01/2022 16:29

@arianasky I don't feel sick this cycle and I did last cycle 🙈😆...I also have another spot appearing next to my ovulation spot that I always get! 🙈 is it bad skin or related to hormones...who knows?! 😆 x

Justwantbaby1 · 27/01/2022 16:21

@xidrinkwinex definitely similar to me!

@arianasky I’m very irritable but I usually get this way before af so nothing new🙄😂

@calimc83 ummmm I think it’s 9, I’m not 100% sure I’ve lost count now🙈😂x

OP posts:
calimc83 · 27/01/2022 16:17

@Justwantbaby1 I waited last cycle...what no cycle are you on now? X

arianasky · 27/01/2022 16:09

Agree with symptoms messing with your head, I'm only 3dpo but have had slight cramping and cried at such a silly thing earlier 😂 I know it's not symptoms really way to early but I question everything,anyone else feeling symptoms at all? I like to compare 😂🙈
