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

@mrsyan oh I'm so sorry, it's so tough navigating TTC and all the emotions that come with it. Today can be a day for tears ❤️

@newbiemg why oh why do we get thrown these curveballs for no discernible reason?! I took Pregnacare 'before conception' and it extended my cycles by a number of days. I now stick to my usual multivitamin and take an extra folic.

I'm in the TWW, testing on Saturday. Not holding out much hope as I have the exact pre period symptoms I always have. We shall see!

@Pickles91 I hope cycle 2 brings you lots of luck!

@Pops100 will you test or wait for missed AF? Fingers crossed.

I am currently 12dpo, I have started spotting so know AF is on the way. I have been very very tearful today because of it, I feel really down. This was cycle 5 and I think hitting 6 months next cycle is just a lot.

I had a good cry to DP, he's told me to not be so hard on myself- it will happen when it happens yada yada yada. Yep that's all well and good but it's not helping me right now feeling sad and having these raging hormones. I will agree with him in a couple of days but right now... not what I want to hear. I feel like giving up but I can't because I WANT IT SOOOO MUCH.
Sorry for moaning- I will be back to my positive self in a few days. I'm going to go write in my manifestation journal some more as it obviously didn't work last month 😩🙄 xx

@Newbiemg sorry to hear about af causing you so much trouble 👿 , what new supplements did you start?

I'm in the tww , 7dpo 🤞🏼 don't really feel any different except a few cramps that seem to be there one day and then go then come back & have had a really bad headache today but not sure if it's related,

@Newbiemg I'm in the TWW! Will be 9DPO tomo and although very early might be tempted to test🤞
I hope AF leaves you soon so you can get to it!!🙏

@beatingheartbaby @Emma543 welcome ✨🤍

@MrsYan I am 7dpo now , also don't have any symptoms except cramps & headache again today but not sure if anything related as I do get them quite often but trying to stay positive🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

It's so hard isn't it! Keep trying to tell myself it's only been 1 month and not stress too much!

Morning everyone! Happy Tuesday 🙃

Welcome to @beatingheartbaby and @Emma543! Wishing you both lots of baby dust with your journeys.

How on earth is it February?! Feels like I blinked and it was christmas yesterday...

Hi all,

Newbie here, hope you all don't mind!

Jan was our first month of 'seeing what happens' so naturally I was checking my fertile days (via Ovia app only no tests). Dtd every second day over that time lol. AF was due Saturday, was no sign.... started getting excited, boobs were killing me, then woke up this morning to AF. Feeling disappointed but also silly because it's our first month!

@Newbiemg I'm good thank you. No symptoms or anything apart from cramps in my pelvis/thighs that last about 15 minutes and happen every night - so weird! Midwife said that's normal though 🤞 Ovulation on Valentine's Day - perfect timing and perfect time to make the most of it haha xx

@Pickles91 not yet! We are waiting for family to visit so we are telling my boyfriends parents this weekend and mine in 3/5weeks when we next see each of them! Splits up the excitement at least! 😊 xx

It’s only my first, so wasn’t really expecting a miracle @MrsYan!

Thanks you @Bluets! Yes, hopefully a GP can shed some light. I’ve had ultrasounds and bloods for various other things, and i must say, it’s just nice to know what’s going on so early in the journey and have people to bug with questions!

Hi @Emma543! Haha I think a lot of us know that feeling! Distractions… I don’t have many of those. When I knew I really shouldn’t test, I just peed first thing really fast to get rid of that prime testing FMU 😂 hopefully your symptoms are for all the right reasons!

Hi all wondered if I could jump onto a lovely thread?! 1st month TTC with AF due this Sunday - 9-10DPO told myself I wouldn’t test before AF was late but it’s killing me!! Think I’m also convincing myself I have symptoms experiencing sore boobs and cramps! Any advice on distractions?!
Good luck everyone lots of baby dust

Thanks so much everyone, it feels good to talk and I really appreciate your replies. I feel somewhat unburdened! I had been thinking it might be ovulation pain but it builds until my period so who knows (hopefully a Dr!)

So sorry to hear AF is arriving @pickles91. I'm sending out good vibes through the ether for February.

Sorry you had such a crappy Monday @mrsyan

@Pickles91 AF is so annoying. What cycle is this for you? Af is due Wednesday so if she comes, I will just be a couple of days behind you, @Newbiemg @FastFish1993.

@Pops100 I hope you are right! AF due Wednesday so let's see what happens over the next couple of days🤞🏼 how many DPO are you now? x

@MrsYan don't rule out till af shows! I've heard loads of people say they didn't experience any symptoms at all including no implantation bleed.

@5manc thank you lovely!! Back home now from a lovely weekend and back to reality.

Had cramps all day yesterday with a headache and cramps again today... hoping these are all good signs and not the wicked witch arriving!

Sounds like a nightmare Monday @MrsYan! AF didn’t arrive over the weekend but cramps are kicking in now, so joining @Newbiemg and @FastFish1993 on CD1! Hopefully AF stays away for you this month. So impressed that your experience managed to stay away from the tests!

Hi @5manc! How are you? Have you shared the good news with anyone?

Hey everyone- I hope all your Mondays were good? My work Monday was diabolical... lots of mistakes made by other people and I was the one who had to sort them all out 🙄

@Newbiemg sorry to hear af came. Hope you are ok 🤍 the ups and downs that go along with our cycles are hard work, luckily I haven't cried again!

@SMD16 I hope everything is ok with the lump. Your pup is cute!

@Pickles91 I can't see your previous message but think you said AF has stayed away, I hope that's still the case.

I am 11dpo today, af due Wednesday. I don't have any symptoms so not feeling it this month at all. xox

Hi everyone 👋 Just wanted to pop on to see how everyone is doing?? I have been keeping up with the thread even though I haven't been responding much! Everything crossed for February for you all ✨🤞

@Pops100 huuuge congratulations on your engagement ❤️
