Hey guys, looking for some cycle partners to chat with!

How are you all feeling? I’m 3 dpo now and not many symptoms but it's early.

Slight niggling cramp this morning. Tiny amount of EWCM. Cervix position is high, soft and closed.

Had a chemical pregnancy last cycle but feeling very positive this cycle and wishing baby dust to all!

So I'm a nutter and couldnt wait and tested today (8dpo)(I think?).

I have the smallest of small squinters ever I think.

Pics one fmu and one a few hours ago 🙈

I see something in the second 🤞🏼

@Recordedsnape it is isn't it! I've avoided it for the past few months and waited for AF but for some reason I feel a bit different and took one! I'm going to try and wait a few days if I can, I know I'm too early!

@SLK1990 lovely! How are you feeling so far? Definitely it's so hard to be distracted isn't it!

SLK1990 · 05/09/2022 16:38

@Harriet669 we are similar DPO, good luck for this month, hopefully this will keep us distracted on the tww 😊

@Recordedsnape my cycles are quite regular so my period should be due on the 13th. Premom app says to test on the 11th so I'm going to try and hold off until then but I know I'll be tempted by the weekend 😅

Hi everyone! The more the merrier. Try keep each other going in the TWW. And hoping this is a lucky thread too!! ✨️

@SLK1990 you are defo in for a chance! All sounds good, fingers crossed for BFP. When are you going to start testing?

@Harriet669 aww I'm fed up of seeing BFN, so deflating isn't it. But still so early, are you going to test again tomorrow or wait few days? Xx

Hi can I join? Been TTC majority of this year (more cycles than months as some have been really short 😂 so lost count of how many) was in mums net earlier in the year but had a few relaxed summer months where we tried not to track and have a relaxed approach, back tracking again this month as still no luck, 7DPO and stupidly took a test which is of course a BFN!
Here's to hoping this is a lucky thread 🤞🏼

SLK1990 · 05/09/2022 14:25

Hi ladies, hope it's ok I join this thread!

I'm also 6po and TTC#1, this is our second cycle trying and using OPKs (I'm still slightly confused at it all).

I ovulated on the 30th September and we only managed to DTD on 24th, 27th and 30th (o-day) do you think that's a good enough chance?

Currently no real symptoms, sometimes feel a bit nauseous but that seems normal for me the week after ovulation and have been quite bloated the last couple of days. (again quite normal). Literally any twinge or symptom I get, I'm straight onto google, driving myself mad!

Fingers crossed for everyone!

You sound like you're in exactly the same situ as me / only managed to DTD on my ov peak which was 28th September so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

@Rosiearthur that sounds like a good plan to me!! Xx

Rosiearthur · 05/09/2022 14:14

@Recordedsnape I also think I won’t be able to hold out until weekend now!
I think I’ll do a frer on 9dpo which for me is Thursday morning. Then I’ll do cheapies until my AF date (which is 13/9/22) and if that doesn’t come I’ll do a frer again. Xx

6 DPO today...I'm feeling nauseous guys nauseous!! That's not normal for me. So last night coming out shower I felt dizzy and nausea which past after 15 mins. This morning I've felt it again, just the rush of nausea then I ate a cookie and felt better 😆 lol

No cramping for me, had to wake during the night again to pee though.

Just think...this week we could have some BFPs!!!

I'm hoping to hold off till Wednesday to do a frer. I cant wait till the weekend, too inpatient lol xx

6dpo - kind of looking forward to this week at work so hopefully the TWW will speed up a bit! First time in ages I haven’t had Monday blues! 🤣
I’ve been having cramping - similar to period cramps but feels a bit early in cycle to start cramping - but who knows. Also very tired but and interrupted sleep. Breast soreness. These aren’t uncommon PMS symptoms for me and AF would be due on 13/9/22.
i ordered some cheap pregnancy strip tests due to arrive today - so may end up caving and testing before Saturday as I’m so impatient! Thinking maybe from 9dpo (Thursday)Xx

Ellbelll · 04/09/2022 17:30

@Recordedsnape sounds good! Very exciting x

I have had a few niggles this afternoon, and achy lower back. I've also just got heartburn/indigestion which I never get! Bring on 6dpo tomorrow, I'm itching to test. I've decided on testing on Tuesday just to see if even a glimmer of a line xx

I've found couple days before peak is good as well as sperm can survive upto 5 days. Defo on day of peak aswell xx

OP posts:
Ellbelll · 04/09/2022 16:03

@inthegarden94 hey I’m also new to it all but I’m sure they say to DTD on the night of the peak and preferably the day after too. However I’m sure DTD on peak night is probably best as the sperm will be there for when the egg is released? Hope that makes sense haha! Good luck 🤞🏻 X

inthegarden94 · 04/09/2022 15:30

Hi everyone I've been using OPKs for the first time and wondering what you'd say my chances are this month

Tested positive on 28/08 in the afternoon and DTD later that night but now wondering if should have waited until the next day Confused hoping still in with a change of a bpf this week

Good luck all Flowers

I'm 4dpo today, TTC #1 for the last 4 months, but the last 2 cycles have been mainly scuppered by Covid and a wonky cycle so I'm not really counting them.

Feel like we timed it right this time so feeling cautiously hopeful...what day are people aiming to test?

Recordedsnape · 04/09/2022 13:04

My girl is 4 now, we are TTC #3. We don't get pregnant easily, usually takes a while for us. I'm on cycle 5 so hoping it's lucky one 🙏 xx

So random but I've got a spot on my face today!! (I know totally over analysing haha)

I never get spots, and I remember when early pregnant with my DD I got a spot during TWW. Lol clutching at straws here haha 😄 xx

How old is your daughter?? We’re TTC #2 - our son is 2

Bparb · 04/09/2022 11:44

I spent 4 hours clearing out our garage this weekend.
How to tell you’re in the TWW 😂😂

I've been continuing to use opk and its starting to get darker again. I'm going to keep going with them and see if any truth to them getting darker closer to a BFP.

I've got nothing planned this week so hoping it doesn't drag. I love the idea of making list to keep me busy I might try that! xx
