TWW starting 31.07.22 - Company Needed

Hey all!

I'm on several other threads that I'm keeping up with but some of them are a tad long now, so I thought I'd start a new one for people to join.

Ovulation day for me today (30.07.22) so TWW starts officially tomorrow. AF due on the 12th. I have tests in the house, but my goal this month is to keep my mind busy and avoid symptom spotting! I don't plan on testing if I can help it. Want to avoid the disappointment if I can.

We are TTC #1 and we are in cycle 4 now. I had a chemical mid June when we weren't officially TTC but when it happened we realised now was the time to actively try. We wanted it so badly.

So that's a little about me and I would love some company in a slightly smaller thread.

Much love xoxox

@xttcbabyno1x I ovulated on the 30th. It's crazy how close together we are. I'm nervous about doing a digital as it was with a digital that I discovered my CP wasn't progressing 😢

@jollydollyirl thank you. Fingers crossed for everyone else now

We must have a few more ladies ready to test this week?? How is everyone getting on? Xx

Congratulations @TheCakeIsALie18 <3. I hope you enjoy this exciting time! How many days DPO and pre AF did you test? Did you first see it on a FRER?

xttcbabyno1x · 11/08/2022 08:37

@xttcbabyno1x awww nice, I'm 30 and really close to my mum so it's going to be hard not to tell her yet. With my CP we told her and she started making a baby blanket haha. I told her to keep making it because we will catch again.

Ahahahhahahaha I'm obsessed too. I just can't believe it yet. I've got 2 digitals in the cupboard. I'm going to take one this weekend and then other next weekend I think. I'm not sure whether this weekend will show at 1-2 or 2-3 as I concieved 2 weeks ago this Saturday... xx

@TheCakeIsALie18 yeah that's fair xx we're telling my parents Sunday (5 weeks) because I need my mum to talk to, as it's my first baby (well first was a loss when I was 18, accidental pregnancy) but was keeping! I just want to be able to go to my mum if I'm worried xxx

Morning all today's update picture...

It must be getting darker slowly because the camera picks it up now without adjusting it and you don't have to squint as much to see it lol.

Hope it keeps getting darker over the next couple days ❤️ xx

Morning all, I caved and did a cheaply test this morning, 10DPO, not even a hint of a line. I’m still hoping it’s too early to feel as when I’ve had positives before the earliest they showed was 11DPO so fingers crossed still. I keep telling myself I’ll wait until the weekend but my willpower is non existent lol.

@Nypie Thank youuuu.

That chart looks good! As long as your temp stays up and doesn't drop to starting numbers you're still in! Never out until AF shows up ❤️❤️ look forward to seeing your tests. Easy@home haven't picked anything up for me yet but I'll keep using them as well as FRER. See when they pick it up. I'll possibly take a digital this weekend too xx

OP posts:
xttcbabyno1x · 10/08/2022 10:26

@Nypie that looks a very positive chart!!!!! Xxx

Nypie · 10/08/2022 10:12

@TheCakeIsALie18 I seee it!! 🤞🤞🤞🤞so tightly crossed come on bean.

Had a shadow on mine and 3am in the morning though I feel its probably more likely that I'm losing it! May order some of those easy at home test and see what there saying! Temp has shot back up...maybe I'm sick
