*The TWW States* 😬😂…. Here for positive vibes as we try to create new lives 👶🍼🤞… (Ttc #1 and cycle 1 continued)

Hello!

Continuation of our last thread…

All of us TTC and in different cycles and stages of our journey.

Helping eachother through the TWW, through the confusing days of OPK/BBT testing and charts, through all of the symptom spotting, the dreaded arrival of AF and the BFP announcements! 😊✨

January was a very lucky month for some who got their BFP and some of us are ready to make February our month!

With giggles and lots of support along the way.

Welcome!

Oh so you didn't! That's made me feel a bit more "relaxed" shall we say.. what a stressful experience all this TTC is.. do not recommend 😂 @Newbiemg

@SMD16 don't worry least I'm the exact same as you! Stressville x

SMD16 · 07/02/2022 09:13

Hurry up O!! @RMS0209 yes we still have the TWW too yet 😂 I wish I could be one of these people that just don't think of it at all and let nature take it's toll.

@RMS0209 I didn’t peak until CD16 last cycle and the one before that was CD13 so hopefully you get your static in the next couple of days Smile

@SMD16 fingers crossed we do O soon.. made me sad today.
Roll on lunch time testing! Fingers crossed no missing anything while away with work.

HA! Was going to ask the same, I had things planned for my 2WW this time but I need to O first so! X

SMD16 · 07/02/2022 08:32

@RMS0209 it's mad isn't it that any illness/ sick bug can affect your monthly cycle! I 'should' be ovulating today and didn't a test yesterday but was low. Going to try hold until lunch too and do one. WFH for me too although I'm away tomorrow night for work so hoping we don't miss any windows!

What's everyone's tips for keeping a level head during this process?

RMS0209 · 07/02/2022 08:03

@SMD16 Lyra is looking good after her Sunday dinner picture Grin
CD14.. still flashy smile, last 2 months I had static by now.. wondering if the covid and extra bleeding has messed up for this month, I'll hold this morning and do a cheapie at lunch and see.
Hope everybody has a lovely week, WFH today... roll on time OH is home x

Deffo nothing is TMI on here 😂 we’re all going through it together lol

@Newbiemg it's so strange isn't it. My partners always found it fascinating that he can't just play with them and it excite me... I just don't feel them 😂 sorry probs TMI but feels easy to talk on here!

@SMD16 Im hoping for an earlier ovulation incase my cycle is short again but I also don’t want it to be too early because then my egg won’t be mature enough. I would just like it to be bang in the middle around CD13/14 same as you 🤞

😂 my nipples get like that too. All these weird feelings and pains the joys of ttc lol

OP posts:
SMD16 · 06/02/2022 22:19

@Newbiemg CD11. Last month ovulation was CD13 and AF came CD26. I have all the same symptoms as I did last month before OVU and my god are my nipples sensitive 😂 honestly any other time of the month I can barely feel any touch on them but right now a feather would cripple me haha

I really thought I had regular cycles but since ttc I’m starting to think they’re actually all over the place. Each cycle I’m like okkkkk then new curve ball 😂

This is the same test in both photos but with and without camera flash. Does this look quite dark for CD7?

Wondering if my cycles have just decided to become shorter now lol

Good evening everyone!

@Bluets excited for you! ✨

@lakejupiter glad the inseminations are on the go and going well Smile

@Pops100 @SMD16 aww such cute pups! 🐶

@Pickles91 yay to being tww buddies! 😊

@Cookiedough123 Keeping everything crossed for you and sending baby dust! 🤞✨

I’ve just done an OPK and it looks really dark for only CD7. It’s not positive but it’s a dark one for this early for me. It looks like my CD14 one last cycle. Premom scored it as 0.55 (my CD14 last time was 0.57).

I guess this is a good sign that I may ovulate a little earlier which will be better if my cycle is short again I think? x

Cookiedough123 · 06/02/2022 19:48

OMG. I think I have a vvvvvvv faint line on a easy@home stick. I'm not getting too excited yet I'm going to do it again tomorrow morning before I get my hopes up.

SMD16 · 06/02/2022 18:35

@Pops100 oh no she doesn't spy on us... she barks at us! Even if someone's doing the deed on TV she barks 😂😂!! Yes you most definitely can't leave a lonely test and fingers crossed AF stays away x

Pops100 · 06/02/2022 18:26

@Pickles91 @SMD16 @RMS0209
Thank you loveliesThey are so used to having to pose for photos now 🤣🤣 dog walks are magic aren't they for clearing a busy mind.

@SMD16 aww she's so lush. Hahaha that's so funny and I know exactly what you mean, nothing more distracting than seeing there little eyes pop up wondering why mum is making a funny noise 😂😂😂.

due af Tuesday and still no sign so gonna give it another go Tuesday... well thats if af is a no show and then I will just buy a fresh pack of tests for next cycle, I can't leave one by itself after all 🤣🤣.

SMD16 · 06/02/2022 17:29

Catching up too, had a weekend of cleaning.. fun!

@Pops100 sorry about the BFN 😢 sending lots of luck for your next cycle!

@Bluets ah how frustrating about the dud test! But at least you'll be further along post ovulation so will be a good test tomorrow!

@lakejupiter glad the inseminations are going well! Are you and co parent far from one another?

@Newbiemg it's looking likely to be 13th/ 14th for you then! Mine was earlier than my apps said last month but hopefully you hit your peak soon!

@RMS0209 love a dog walk! What doggo have you got?

Lyra's just had her Sunday dinner, check out her gravy beard! She deserved it after being shut out the bedroom a few times this weekend so we could BD 😂

Also happy Sunday from my 4 legged kids 🤍 xx
Oh look at them @Pops100 😍😍😍😍
Pickles91 · 06/02/2022 16:45

I’ll have a proper catch up later but wanted to hop on and say thank you for the birthday wishes and CONGRATS @Bluets!! I can see that line clear as day.

Glad your inseminations are going well @lakejupiter! Almost into that dreaded TWW.

Sorry about the BFN @Pops100. Your pups look like the perfect ‘pick me ups’! I really need to do a spring clean too, but cba.

I’m due to ovulate on the 15th, so we’ll be TWW buddies again @Newbiemg!

What a lovely pic @Pops100 😍

Glad you've had a nice enough weekend and sorry about the BFN.. but we will still be optimistic!
I was out for a long walk today too with the dog was good fun, nice to clear my head

Happy Sunday everyone , hope everyone is okay? Hope OPK readings are going well and @Bluets you have a sticky positive which I'm sure you will🥰🥰

Had a busy day today with a spring clean of upstairs which to be fair isn't too bad as we only have a 2 bed and am loving using my new shark!! Felt a bit down yesterday after my bfn however went for a nice long dog walk and now back to being positive 👍🏼 xx
