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

Woohoo power @RMS0209! Finally! And no AF = even better!!!

I watched that show too @Pops100! I found it quite enjoyable but my partner couldn’t stand it 😂 on to that Korean zombie series that seems to be all over insta. Not my type of show at all…

Great news on the flashing smiley @lakejupiter! Sounds like your insemination plan will work perfectly with that!

@Newbiemg it totally depends. Last month I had NOTHING on CB and then went straight to static smiley. Other months have had flashing smiley for a few days. OPKs aren't very high and my cervix is low, and no EWCM, so think I'm not ovulating imminently but maybe will O a couple of days before my app predicts. The flashing smileys for days are a bit of a troll lol.

@Pops100 waiting for the weekend sounds smart. I really regret testing early last month and it was really hard to get an indent on a test and spend ages scrutinising it.

Congrats on power @RMS0209 - we are cycle twins!

@Newbiemg thanks - was a loong while, CD9 today - going to start testing from tomorrow. Think I want to try be a bit more laid back this month, the TWW drove me crazy!
Power has just came on too, woo hoo Netflix in bed tonight haha.
What are you?when you going to start testing?
Do I have any cycle buddy's cycle? X

Hi Ladies
How is everybody? Good news AF left.. so hopefully back on the straight and narrow, no power yet but I'd have chose AF leaving over anything!

Hope everybody is having a good week
baby dust 😀 hello to the newbies xx

@Newbiemg thank you yeah he's not too bad at the moment , pretty much seems like his normal self! Sounds like a good day, we watched a series recently called something like 'the woman on the street watching the girl next door ' and it's soooo good , deffo recommend it 👍🏼👍🏼

@lakejupiter yay for flashing smiley!! I'm going to wait till the weekend as I'm 10DPO Friday. Going to make myself wait till then to save any disappointment😂

Hello all! CD10 here and got a flashing smiley this morning so my fertile window is starting early I guess? Apps say my fertile window is CD 13-18 and I should ovulate on CD18 but I'm thinking it might be coming sooner this month. Inseminations planned for CD14, CD15 and CD17.....

I weed on a stick at 7DPO too @Pops100 - whyyyyy do we do it to ourselves - at least we can share here and laugh at ourselfves gently 😂 hope you get your BFP soon! When will you test again?

@Newbiemg why do we do it to ourselves 🤣🤣

I'm good thanks, not really done a lot as I'm off work and have been since middle of December with looking after the oh , with the risk of covid around work I'm basically signed off till he gets back on the mend.

How's your day going x

@Pickles91 yes fingers crossed please!!! I was stupid last night and tested even though I knew it was gonna be negative as I was only 7dpo... why do we do this to ourselves 😂😂 I was sure I could see the faintest line and then oh was like 'umm no I don't think so Beth' 🤣🤣🤣

Hi all and welcome to new people - feel free to add your testing date to the calendar!

On CD9. Nothing to report here except I got no sleep last night because my cat ate a whole bird then was really sick everywhere, and couldn't get back to sleep. Started OPKs and temping yesterday. Inseminations planned for Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday, and all my apps predict ovulation Thursday but will see what OPKs say...

I use Ovia too @beatingheartbaby, but two wonky cycles threw my dates off. Started OPKs last month and began tracking in the Premom app and it was bang on with AF’s arrival date! Despite logging ovulation, Ovia didn’t change my predicted AF date, which was a bit annoying. I like the little tips and facts that come on that app though. It’s so trial and error this TTC business

@Pickles91 hrm I'm not sure, I need to look into hrm the OPK thing a bit more. I was using Ovia but the AF predictor was obviously off this month so I'm not sure how accurate it's actually been.

And yes! Love Emily in Paris haha I need a series 3 already

Also, does anyone watch Emily in Paris? I just started it and now feel the need to revamp my whole wardrobe. And lose about 20 pounds 😂

Oh my. That was MASSIVE. Sorry 👀

Happy Tuesday all!

How exciting @5manc!!!

Welcome to the bus @beatingheartbaby! Sorry to hear about AF. Will you be trying OPKs or anything next month or sticking to going with the flow?

Gah sorry about the sucky AF this month @Newbiemg. Maybe the well woman? I think some of the pre-conception multivits can mess you up a bit. I haven’t tried any mind, so not talking from first-hand experience. I’m on CD2 now so looking forward to starting cycle 2 soon! Staying away from BBT for now, but curious to see how you get on! It might be another thing to try post-wedding, like EPO. And maybe soy isoflavones. And baby aspirin 😂

@MrsYan thank you! Sorry about the spotting. I get that pre-AF too and it sucks. But I was reading a bus ages ago when I was being nosey about starting TTC and one woman on there spotted every month before AF and even spotted before her BFP, so it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re out 🤞🏼 And if the witch does show her ugly face, 6 months is still early. You got this!!! Vent as much as you need. We’re in this together 💪🏼

Excited to see these tests @Bluets and @babydreamin! And @Pops100! We’re owed some more BFPs after a bumper start to the bus!

That sounds like some intensive treatment @Pops100, hopefully it does the trick! It would be fab to get that bumpy news - what a bonus addition it would be to your other news 💍 !!!

Welcome @AG88! Great to have you hear! Your symptoms sound good. Will you test or wait it out?

How are you getting on @lakejupiter?

New to posting (but been lurking for a while). Been TTC (well, trying but not trying) for about a year now - decided to properly try last month. Currently nearing end of TWW (AF due Friday). Symptom spotting like mad! Sore nipples from around 3dpo that lasted 5 days. Also had sharp twinges in my abdomen around then too. Both subsided, but have had the worst indigestion for the past 4 days (almost vomited with it today) constipation and today I've had AF-like cramps. Not testing yet, but got fingers crossed it's pregnancy and not PMS 🤞

@MrsYan sorry forgot to answer your question! I would like to wait for AF but no full well I won't 😂 I am 10DPO on Friday I believe so will then or might wait till Saturday but again I doubt it 🤣🤣

@Newbiemg oh okay well like you said hopefully it will just be soemthing simple that'll sort itself out next cycle 🤞🏼🤞🏼, I can't be much help as don't have much experience with even my own cycles as was on the pill since the age of about 13 and I'm 24 now but agree that a trip to the drs may help if it's not sorting itself out.

@MrsYan I understand but like others have said, keep talking about how you feel on here because hopefully that'll help calm down your worries.

OH radiotherapy start date has come through 21st of this month.. 33 sessions everyday for 61/2 weeks except he has weekends off. Fingers crossed I can give him some news over next few days ... by the way I just cooked a carbonara and could only eat a few mouthfuls, could be nothing but im a right foodie🤨🤨🤨🤨.
