Hi all

Currently TTC #1 and on my first cycle.

Have been tracking using OPKs and mobile-apps, and by estimation should have ovulated today / yesterday!

I loved following these threads as we prepared to start trying, if anyone would like to join.

@Jod30 I'm 9dpo and not really feeling much either but I didn't feel pregnant at all when I got a bfp with my first so it doesn't mean anything. Couldn't resist a cheapie test this morning and bfn... AF is due Sunday/Monday.

Jod30 · 13/07/2022 09:34

How’s everyone getting on today? Any more symptoms? I’m 8dpo and absolutely nothing yet. Testing Friday morning before the wedding at 10dpo and if it’s stark white I will definitely be having a few drinkies!

Whydotheyallhaverubbishwheels · 12/07/2022 18:03

I need to resist until Saturday as I only have one frer left. Still feeling so sick 🙈

Maxime34 · 12/07/2022 17:26

Ah it's so hard isn't it because you do hear some success stories from 8dpo but I googled it and it says it's super rare and only 0.5% women get a bfp that early. I'm assuming it would just be disappointed if I tested now. I have lots of cheapies so if I get too impatient later in the week I can always try one of those! @NatalieSF @Whydotheyallhaverubbishwheels

Whydotheyallhaverubbishwheels · 12/07/2022 16:11

@Maxime34 think of all the money you save if you hold off (I'm such a hypocrite 🤣)

NatalieSF · 12/07/2022 15:55

Maxime34 · 12/07/2022 15:37

You're not out yet @Whydotheyallhaverubbishwheels @NatalieSF keeping my fingers crossed for you guys. Keep us posted. I'm 8dpo and literally can't stop thinking about testing already which I know is so silly. Going to try and hold out until Saturday but at this rate that feels unlikely!

I've been testing since about then i couldn't help it 🤣 have absolutely no will power when it comes to holding off testing lol

Maxime34 · 12/07/2022 15:37

NatalieSF · 12/07/2022 13:38

Well I think I'm out. AF due tomorrow and tests are negative. Now to wait for af to arrive so we can start the process again 🥰

Whydotheyallhaverubbishwheels · 12/07/2022 12:08

Hey all, mind if I join?

I'm 11dpo, TTC 2nd baby. I've forgotten most of the lingo here so sorry if I get it wrong! This is cycle 1 for us and gosh I forgot how hard the tww is. I'm symptom spotting like nothing else! Ive had tingly nips the last few days and nausea and cramps today. I gave in and tested today but not with fmu and it was negative on a frer. I know I'm not out yet but it's still disheartening and I'm annoyed/ embarrassed why I tested when I did. I think I thought at least it's worth feeling sick for if it comes back positive 🤣

Basically paid £3.40 to be disappointed

So I'm patiently (lol!) Waiting until Saturday when af is due to poas again.

Maxime34 · 10/07/2022 21:36

@ginandgiggles god I know, it's so hard isn't it. Especially the ones that line up with one of your losses which a few of my friends pregnancies do. Trying to stay positive. On massive countdown to testing day though.... This week is going to drag!

ginandgiggles · 10/07/2022 21:28

@Maxime34 snapsies! so sorry for your losses also, here's hoping this one is ours. If i hear about one more pregnancy in my friends group i think i might implode haha

Maxime34 · 10/07/2022 20:37

@ginandgiggles our timelines are literally identical. We've been trying around 6 months and have had two early MC in that time...so sorry you've been though that too. Also going to be testing on Saturday. Keeping my fingers crossed this is our month it sticks 💓

Welcome all who have joined- hope everyone is also doing well this weekend and managing the heat!

I'm 4DPO so still very early days for me. I have had this really odd feeling of pressure in my stomach last night / today, though can't really say I feel nauseous or cramping. I just feel I'm a bit more aware of what's happening with my body this month given the circumstances - it's probably something I wouldn't have noticed otherwise!

@hallodarknessmyoldfriend I definitely wouldn't write this month off yet, for sure give it a couple more days and test again.

@ginandgiggles very sorry to hear of your past losses. Sounds like things are happening so have everything crossed that this is your month!

Another tww and hoping this is finally my month.

Good luck everyone 🙂

ginandgiggles · 10/07/2022 19:29

Can I join guys? 8 dpo, some v slight spotting starting yesterday. small tugging / cramping and a sudden onset cold and flu like symptoms this afternoon. 6th cycle with 2 mc inbetween so hopefully something positive! will try to hold off testing until AF due, which is next sat. How's everyone feeling?

hallodarknessmyoldfriend · 10/07/2022 12:43

yellowmoon487 · 09/07/2022 21:01

Anyone testing this weekend?

I tested this morning, BFN :( but I am only 8dpo, so will wait a few more days

Jod30 · 09/07/2022 23:05

@Maxime34 nothing yet no but I guess implantation wouldn’t happen for a couple anyway. Ideally I would like to wait until then but 10dpo I have a wedding to go to so I will be tempted to test that morning

Maxime34 · 09/07/2022 22:55

This is the worst bit isn't it @Jod30 any symptoms so far? When do you think you'll start testing? I'm going to try and wait for 12dpo if I can resist!

Jod30 · 09/07/2022 21:58

No unfortunately only 4dpo. Dragging for me too!

Maxime34 · 09/07/2022 21:27

5dpo over here, time is dragging!

@Aardbeien congratulations i got married in May. Removed coil after honeymoon as I didn't want AF

@yellowmoon487 Bit of back ache and cramps but not sure if I'm coming down with stomach is killing me today 🙈 11dpo so not long left to wait AF due Thursday

Aardbeien · 08/07/2022 08:24

yellowmoon487 · 07/07/2022 22:24

Congratulations on getting married! Fingers crossed for a honey moon baby for you! We are getting married in September but decided to get a bit of a head start. 🙈 have you been tracking ovulation or anything?

Show quote history

I had tried tracking bbt and using ovulation tests before but with the wedding upcoming I stopped due to stress. I think my app isn't terribly far off based on my other symptoms so I'll either find out quite soon when af arrives (or doesn't!) Congrats when September comes around! Hope its the best day for you both!

Hi!

Can I join?

I am currently 5dpo and trying hard to stay away from testing until Sunday.

Of course - welcome!
Wishing you lots of luck for Sunday- it's so hard wanting to test but also wanting to avoid the disappointment if it's too early 🙄
