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

thank you @MumofAlf going to force myself to wait for a few days at least! How are you doing? X

MumofAlf · 08/08/2022 08:55

@peonies1988 hey! I’m due 18th Aug so waiting as well. Yea I’m sure it’s just a little early. Try not to over think it and maybe test again at the weekend?

peonies1988 · 08/08/2022 08:42

Hi everyone,

jumping on, hope that’s okay. Period due August 15th so still got a week left. Stupidly tested this morning and got a stark white! I think I’m about 9dpo. Previous pregnancy (ended in mc at 11 weeks) I tested positive a week before due so now feeling disappointed. Hopefully just too early? xxx

xttcbabyno1x · 08/08/2022 08:07

@MumofAlf thank you lovely I'm glad I'm not going crazy with seeing something!

I'm not sure, I'm still skeptical because i don't believe it 😅 this is the second test I've done now with a line so praying it's not evaps and indents!! I feel completely normal apart from some shooting pains in my boobs!! Xx

MumofAlf · 08/08/2022 08:05

@xttcbabyno1x yes I can see that line! Amazing news! So exciting! How you feeling?

xttcbabyno1x · 08/08/2022 07:56

I got another faint line this morning! Darker in person but hard to capture on phone - going to get an FRER later xx

@Nypie that is interesting. Looking at the chart you posted I agree with that about when you ovulated haha.

Hopefully this is the month for you and temp keeps heading in that upward direction ❤️❤️ xx

@Hannargh no idea 😂😂 bit annoyed that I didnt take my temp the morning before.

@TheCakeIsALie18 Cheers, its weird for me as my charts usually look like hills and not mountains. Still feel out symptoms are mostly gone and just realised FF has put me at 10dpo when the other 2 apps have put me at 9 which is interesting

@Nypie nothing strange about that chart. Constantly raised after O. Looks good 👌🏻👌🏻❤️ xx

@Nypie oh hello what happened this morning? Definitely an interesting looking chart!

Nypie · 07/08/2022 23:13

@xttcbabyno1x I'll be 10dpo tomorrow...this is my strange looking chart not feeling too hopeful tbh

Haha I dont blame you wanting to test as soon as but dont worry if it takes two days darken I think thats very normal! What cycle number is this for you?

@Hannargh you are a strong woman!

@TheCakeIsALie18 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

If we are adding charts here is mine for this month. Pretty standard for me. I average between 35.6 and 35.9 before O and the between 36.0 and 36.6 after O. Temp usually drops the morning of AF so just hoping the temp stays up.

Pubic cramping and stretching feeling getting tad worse this evening. I don't cramp before AF though ever. I get bad AF cramps day 1 and 2 of cycle and then nothing. So without wanting to assume this is it.... I'm feeling a tiny bit excited xx

@xttcbabyno1x I'm due on Saturday, so I'm going to try and wait it out - if nothing arrives over the weekend then it's finally test party time 🥳 (I'm always late to everything anyway haha)

xttcbabyno1x · 07/08/2022 20:15

@Nypie how many dpo are you lovely? Thank you! Hoping this might be it, I think the morning ? I'm not sure but I don't think I can wait longer than that 😂 xxx

xttcbabyno1x · 07/08/2022 20:14

@Hannargh ooh it looks good , temp still nice and high xx 🤞🏼 for you!! When are you planning on testin g? Xx

Nypie · 07/08/2022 20:14

Hey all nice to see a busy thread! I did my test this morning the starkest of BFNs so I'm trying to see my symptoms as af from now on, my temp is higher than ever (when not sick) so I'll be interested to see what it is tomorrow. Using my last test on wednesday bough some very spenny vitamins as I think I might have a progesterone problem.

@xttcbabyno1x I seee it! How exciting when are you testing next??

Everyones else there's still time! 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Hannargh · 07/08/2022 20:04

@xttcbabyno1x ooh I love a good chart. Here's mine so far - I started temping at the end of May, so I've also got June if you want to see how that looked.
Premom has me at 6DPO as they took the day my temp started rising again after ov (a fun double dip this time!)

Hoping my temps stay up for the next few days - last month they started dropping 2 days before AF but they may go rogue this time.

@xttcbabyno1x yep I can definitely see a line there... I've got everything crossed for you!!! Keep us posted when you next test!

I'm going to test again in the morning. I'm still sneezing annnnd... (sorry for tmi) but the amount of wind I'm passing is stupid... not to mention the smell. I'm sorry this is so unusual lol. Nothing different about my diet haha. Fingers crossed for us alllllll xx

@Hannargh hahaha this is the first month I've tracked BBT , how's yours looking? I only started tracking the day of my peak so I'm not actually sure what any of it means yet !! Fingers crossed for you 🤩🤩 hopefully it's a good month for all of us xx

Hannargh · 07/08/2022 19:53

@xttcbabyno1x yes please! Very invested 😄 xx

I'm good. Feel like I'm waiting for time to pass and keep rechecking my bbt charts. Oddly nothing changed since my morning temp reading?? 🤪
A few odd aches but I had them last month (when I wouldn't normally notice anything) and nothing came of it, so carefully ignoring them.

Doing odd jobs round my parents house this week so hoping to stay busy - no access to tests until the weekend when I'm home again.

xttcbabyno1x · 07/08/2022 19:49

@Hannargh a few people can which makes me feel less crazy!! I hope so :) I will update you all xx how are you feeling? Xx

Hannargh · 07/08/2022 19:48

@xttcbabyno1x ah I just found the thread! Oh I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing something there. Fingers crossed it comes through stronger in the morning or next few days!

xttcbabyno1x · 07/08/2022 19:47

@TheCakeIsALie18 I'm 8dpo today :) evening test too! There's a little hint of something but could just be an indent xx
