Hello! Currently in my TWW! 3dpo I believe! I have a short LP and usually have really irregular cycles but I seem to have ovulated early on for 2 months now! I’ve been ttc for 16 months and need help to get through these next 10 days!

@Newandreallyconfused aww it’s so hard trying to hold out! I’m already thinking about testing, but going to try my hardest to wait until Friday! (10DPO)

@H44123 ahh your a day ahead of me! It’s so hard, the temptation is killing me!

Hi ladies, hope you don’t mind me joining!

I am 7 dpo I think, got a static smiley on CB last Sunday, managed to DTD Saturday late night so Sunday morning really and then Sunday night then Wednesday. I’m guessing I ovulated Monday although not sure.

Second month TTC, had my implant removed March time I think. I swore this time I wouldn’t be symptom spotting and driving myself mad but of course I am. Stupidly did a cheapie test this AM and of course it’s a BFN.

good luck all xx

Hi @Newandreallyconfused 👋🏻 I hope you have better luck holding out with testing in the TWW than I'm having so far 😂

Newandreallyconfused · 15/05/2022 15:47

Hello ladies, can I join you? I’m a bit behind I think, 2DPO today. This is our first month TTC and I’m already stressed about the wait 🤣 I’m going to try to hold off testing as long as possible (we’ll see how that goes!).

@Tropicana1 ahh okay I’ve been taking b6 to try and increase mine! Ahh I’m excited for you! Only 3-4 more days! I’m going to try and hold off testing until Friday, probably won’t manage that mind!

@Peonies94 my LP used to be10 days but it's gradually crept forwards over the last 3 months which I think may be due to the high dose vit C I've been taking but it could also be coincidence - now it's around 11-12 days so only 3-4 days until af due for me anyway, which I think is fuelling the ridiculous testing 😂

@Tropicana1 I’m okay, I’m edging towards the crazy stage even though I tell myself to stay calm! It’s like I’m fine in the first part of TWW as I know not much happens! I only have a 9-10 day LP so then by 5-9 DPO I’m crazy!
that’s me there- I always tell myself not to test until 9 dpo at least, but I cave with my cheapies!

@Peonies94 I've definitely reached "losing it" territory - did a cheapie today at 8dpo like a crazed person 😂🤦🏼‍♀️ obviously a BFN don't know what I was expecting really!
How are you doing?

@Tropicana1 how are you feeling? I’m usually pretty calm until 6dpo and then go crazy for a few days!!

@ilovekittens yea keep us posted! I always say I’ll wait and then POAS like crazy!

@Tropicana1 this is me! Turn into a crazy person who can’t contain myself! I have frers for if I do get a line; but just use cheapies to do every day 🤦🏻‍♀️

OP posts:
Tropicana1 · 14/05/2022 20:21

@Peonies94 not even going to lie probably stupidly early 9dpo on Monday. I have 2 FRERs so don't really want to waste them until maybe 11dpo which is the day / day before AF is due, but I have a bunch of one step cheapies I will probably dip daily from monday because I'm an obsessive

ilovekittens · 14/05/2022 20:13

@Peonies94 I feel like I'm going mad!
Im not too sure, i think I might try and leave it until 14DPO. Unless I have more 'symptoms' in the meantime... 😂 il keep you updated if I do..

hello both! So hard to not look at symptoms is nt it! @ilovekittens @Tropicana1 Your both a few days ahead of me, I tend to go through the crazy stage around 5-9 DPO when I imagine all sorts! Will you be testing or waiting for af? I usually plan to test at 10 DPO but af usually arrives before then! So if af doesn’t arrive by next Saturday I’ll probably test!

ilovekittens · 14/05/2022 18:07

@Tropicana1 Spooky!
Ahh it's so difficult not to look every tiny little thing up isn't it?! Can you remember any of your symptoms from #1?

Tropicana1 · 14/05/2022 18:02

@ilovekittens cross post! I've been getting some of the same although I know it's too soon really for proper symptoms it doesn't stop me obsessing over every one!

Tropicana1 · 14/05/2022 18:01

Hi @Peonies94 I'm TTC #2
7DPO, AF due 19th, usually have an 11 day luteal phase but last month was 12 days so I'm going with that for my af prediction.

ilovekittens · 14/05/2022 18:01

Hi!
I'm 7DPO today!
This is only our first month of TTC so I'm defo not holding out much hope and I'm sure it's all just in my head!
My breasts/nipples are more sensitive than usual (I think.. maybe I'm just looking for symptoms?) and I've been having funny sensations on the right hand side- almost stitch like pain and just a weird fizzy feeling across my lower abdomen.
I've also been getting lower back pain a little?!
🙏
