Who's with me? I'm only 1dpo and I already feel like this isn't our month :( I didn't have any ewcm whereas when I last got pregnant (ended in mc) I had an abundance of it so feel like I'm out already. How is everyone else feeling?

@Kerryw93 no I have an 18 month old son but it doesn't make trying for number 2 any easier. I hope we both get out bfp this month! So what day will you be testing? Will it be Friday or Saturday?

I also got a positive test 10dpo previously so will be testing then which is next Saturday for me. Just hope I hold out that long! I've spent so much money on tests I just don't want to do it anymore. I'm really not feeling positive this month at all, how is everyone feeling?

Thankyou @bananas9 , it sucks so bad. I hope this cycle is your time!!! I got a positive hpt on 10dpo last month. So I'm hoping I'll hold out until then as a minimum. Ideally wait longer. Unfortunately I've got a UTI atm 😭 so I'm struggling to take my mind off of anything 😂
When is everyone else testing? X

Hey, I’m possibly 3dpo although not entirely sure because my OPKs have been completely confusing. So I too am in my TWW and already impatient!

I came off the pill in February and got pregnant straight away, unfortunately it was an ectopic. So now I’m back in the land of the TWW trying for number two! (My daughter is 8).

I am inpatient and want to start testing ASAP but like SarahShorty has said above, I’m scared of things going wrong so do want to try to hold out as long as I can (or just have it ruled out by AF showing up).

Hiya! Really sorry about your MC xx I'm 4DPO at the moment. I'm TTC #1. All I can say is hang in there, the TWW is torture. I won't be testing as my last cycle (cycle #2) ended in a CP and I don't want my heart ripped out like that again. I'm going to try really hard to wait until CD35 and then run a cheapy test and then if that's positive, will then confirm it with the last digital Clearblue in the house.

@Kerryw93 I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I heard you're mort fertile after a mc but wasn't true for me sadly, this is month 5 trying after it. Hopefully it won't be the same for you though. The tww consumes me too, longest wait ever! When will you be testing?

Heyy!
I'm 1dpo too. It's horrible this TWW! It consumes my mind 🙈 I'm ttc #3 I came off the pill in march, got pg straight away before my first period. Mc at 6 weeks and now on my TWW. Read so much about being more fertile. Sorry to hear about your loss! Sending hugs x
