Hi everyone!
Currently 2dpo, TTC baby number 2.
Suffered a MC in January, this is my third cycle trying again.
Would love to chat to any ladies who are at the same point in their TWW as me 😊

@Carlswhite29x it was a little fiddly but I think with practice it would become pretty simple. I only got to use it a couple of times as my body decided to ovulate 4/5 days early 🙄. Hoping the light bleed I had yesterday for a few hours was implantation bleed 🤞🏻

Carlswhite29x · 14/04/2022 08:18

@Hopingforababy2022 was it easy to use?

Hopingforababy2022 · 14/04/2022 08:07

@Carlswhite29x I've used preseed before but the conception cup is new, I saw it online and thought I would give it a try.

Carlswhite29x · 14/04/2022 08:04

@Hopingforababy2022 sounds promising! Have you used pressed and the conception cup before?

@slee21 tell me about it! I'm acting completely crazy over it. I really need to chill out about and remember, these things can take time.

I actually had some spotting yesterday but I'm only 5dpo so that's way too early right? My friend says you can sometimes get ovulation bleeding for 5 days after, so maybe it's that?

NSJ28 · 14/04/2022 07:35

@SLee21 literally lay in bed thinking that exact thought right now 🤣

SLee21 · 14/04/2022 07:23

Does anyone else wake up and their first thought is ‘is it still too early to do a test’? 🤣

Hopingforababy2022 · 13/04/2022 22:13

@NSJ28 I definitely will! Knowing my luck it will turn out to be nothing

NSJ28 · 13/04/2022 22:04

Ooo, fingers crossed it could be a sign then @Hopingforababy2022 ! Do keep us updated 😊

Hopingforababy2022 · 13/04/2022 21:55

@NSJ28 4 or 5dpo and definitely ovulated around cd12 or 13 had positive opk and bbt confirmed it

NSJ28 · 13/04/2022 21:51

@Hopingforababy2022 how many dpo are you? And are you sure you ovulated when you think you did?

Hopingforababy2022 · 13/04/2022 21:34

Sorry for the tmi but I've just had some brown spotting when I used the loo only when I wiped though 🤔 surely its too early for anything significant

NSJ28 · 13/04/2022 21:19

Welcome to all our new joiners! Sending baby dust to you all! It's so lovely to have so many of us sharing this TWW 😊

Hubby said to me tonight that my boobs look bigger and that my skin is radiant (that is never ever said about my skin 🤣) only 6dpo but I'm gonna cling onto that as a possible symptom 😂

OP posts:
SLee21 · 13/04/2022 19:03

I know and no matter what you read you still try and justify every twinge! Not even sure if my body is back to normal yet so it could be absolutely anything 🤦🏻‍♀️ I can’t help it! I definitely have a new admiration for women who are struggling to conceive… I’ve only been trying a couple of months and it’s driving me mad! I hope at least one person on this thread gets their BFP this month 🤞🏻

Hopingforababy2022 · 13/04/2022 18:50

@Carlswhite29x that's right yes my post ovulation temps have been higher than usual this month so I'm not sure how to interpret it all tbh. I'm just wishful thinking possibly as this month me and my husband had sex 5 times in my fertile week, used preseed and a conception cup so I'm hoping at least 1 strong swimmer made it to the egg! 😂

Carlswhite29x · 13/04/2022 18:30

@slee21 welcome! Sorry for your loss ❤ honestly, I was the exact same with my pregnancy. No symptoms, just a missed period. Yet I find myself doing the exact same as you and analysing everything. Like you, my pregnancy was a surprise so I wasn't really looking for symptoms which is how I justify my symptom spotting in this present day 😂

Carlswhite29x · 13/04/2022 18:26

@runningonhope fingers crossed for you hun 🤞 I literally get no signs when AF is coming, some warning would be nice sometimes 😂 as for distractions, work and hopefully a cinema date this weekend with DP. DP has a long weekend this weekend with it being easter so we get sunday and monday together which is nice! Might go on a long dog walk, weather permitting. Wbu?

@hopingforababy2022 oh that sounds really promising! I don't track BBT but have read it stays up if you are pregnant right? I've been symptom spotting since day 2 🙄 but I know everything can be explained in someway or another. I have had some pains in abdomin and back but figured it was too early for that. I've been checking my cervix as well and it's high still so that got my Hope's up but then I saw a video on youtube and the lady said her cervix doesn't drop til 2 days before AF 🙃 I literally need to stop and just wait it out 😂 I have wrote everything down in my notes section just incase. I thought it would be helpful to look back on.

SLee21 · 13/04/2022 18:21

Hi ladies, hope you don’t mind me joining.
Currently in my TWW, also suffered a MC beginning of February - it was a happy surprise but we unfortunately lost it at 9 weeks. Made us realise that’s what we wanted and been tracking my cycle ever since.
I’m 6dpo today and symptom spotting like mad - have to say I didn’t feel much different before my BFP last time so don’t know why I’m obsessing over it so much!
We tried the SMEP this month so hoping we might have some luck but feeling a bit pessimistic.
It’s nice to know there are others who know how it feels ❤️

Hopingforababy2022 · 13/04/2022 17:55

@Carlswhite29x I think I'm going to try and resist the urge to test until 10dpo. These next 5 or 6 days are going to drag, I've had tender boobs since 2dpo which never usually happens and yesterday and today I've had cramping in my uterus area for some reason. My temps are staying quite high above my coverline as well so who knows x

RunningOnHope · 13/04/2022 10:25

Hi ladies I am in 5dpo today so round the same time as some of you. I almost always get some spotting by about 8dpo so just hoping that I'll have a clear week of no spotting and that will give me hope for a bfp this month!

Hope the waiting days pass quickly for you... anyone got happy Easter distractions going on?

Carlswhite29x · 13/04/2022 10:17

@NSJ28

It's so hard not to be tempted though isn't it! I'm only 4dpo and literally every day has been like waiting a week!

I still haven't decided if I will test before AF or not. I think there are pros and cons to both. Last month I was a week late and so convinced I had caught on but I had two BFN in the space of a week and i was so disappointed. I'll admit the second one didn't sting quite as much but I don't know if I can test early because of how disappointed I was. Then again, if I wait for AF and it arrives I will still be disappointed anyway 😂 there is no way to win here unless you get a BFP.

NSJ28 · 13/04/2022 09:46

@Eagtess3 sorry about your BFN! But you are not out yet! If you don't know when AF is due, then I'd maybe wait 4 more days and if no sign, do another test? A lot of people don't get a BFP until after 11dpo so you're def not out yet!

I stupidly did a cheapie this morning at 6dpo, I have No idea why, I know it's way too early especially for a cheapie!

OP posts:
Carlswhite29x · 13/04/2022 09:16

@eagtess3 aww I'm sorry on the BFN. I don't really have any experience in testing before a late AF but I've seen it mentioned that sometimes it can be too early? Will you test again or just wait for AF?

Eagtess3 · 13/04/2022 06:46

Hey everyone 10dpo today and got a bfn on a free. Think I’m out for this cycle . Not exactly sure when AF is due as my cycles vary and my apps are all over the place.

Carlswhite29x · 12/04/2022 08:35

@Hopingforababy2022 welcome Smile you're the same DPO as me Smile how are you feeling about the tww? Any plans when to test?

Yeah honestly, I think that ideal age crosses all of our minds. My friend is in the same boat she is 35 this year and feels like it is now or never but plenty of people fall pregnant past 35. Its actually only my 3rd month TTC and the first two months we only tentatively tried as I had just got my coil out so wanted to see how I got on with my AFs. This month is the first month I have tracked everything properly and the first time I will be doing a tww but I'm still freaking out over it! I think its the unknown of it all. Like if someone turned to me and said you will be pregnant in 5 months or 9 months or whatever, I would be able to relax a bit more 😂

lettyloulou · 11/04/2022 19:55

[quote lettyloulou]@Carlswhite29x your story sounds similar to mine. Me and other half were trying casually for 18 months before the bfp and mc this time last year. I had blood tests a few months before which were fine. I had them again a few weeks ago - my progesterone was 49 which was fine, waiting to speak to GP about the day 3 tests. Internal and external ultrasounds last week showed no issues (I had multiple cysts last year when I was mc'ing) so there is no indication anything is wrong. But I can't stop thinking that the ideal age for pregnancy is 30-35. I just want to see those magical two lines again ☺️[/quote]
@Carlswhite29x
20-35 I mean 😂
