Hi,

Currently trying for DC 2, already have a 2 year old DS.

I should have ovulated today 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Anyone else entering the TWW? Due AF 7th Jan but will probably end up testing a couple days before 😄

I still need to go to the shop and buy tests! DH took my car to work today. That's the one with my daughter's car seat in it. I was hoping to sneak out whilst he wasn't here, but can't now as I have DD!

I don't want him knowing that I'm testing so early, so don't want him seeing me but tests. I'd rather tell him after I'm late for AF so I know for definite it's not a chemical if it is positive and don't get both of our hopes up unnecessarily

@30mummy yes 8dpo is quite early to get a BFP on a test. Implantation happens most frequently between 6 and 10 dpo, most commonly at 9 dpo and then HCG builds up from there. You may get a positive if you test again in a few days. I've got my fingers crossed for you 🤞

Downtherabbithole83 · 02/01/2023 15:20

@30mummy we have a group test happening on Wednesday as so many of us are at the same stage and 10dpo seemed like a more sensible time to test. Feel free to join us!

30mummy · 02/01/2023 15:02

@Pitstop1986

Thank you for this, yes i had EWCM for 2 days and then none on the 25th, we DTD on the day i had EWCM, if the app is right i will be 8dpo now, 6 days until AF. Had a BFN this morning but i know its early.

Pitstop1986 · 02/01/2023 14:59

Sorry @30mummy I didn't realise that you said that you're about 8dpo so you're well into your two week wait! There's quite a few of us around the same stage!

Pitstop1986 · 02/01/2023 14:57

@30mummy the most important cm to look out for is egg white cervical mucus around the time of ovulation. If you noticed this and DTD with your partner whilst you have it, you've put yourself in the best possible position to conceive.

After that it will be thicker/creamier/sticky and varies from women to women so I wouldn't worry what's going on right now if you no longer get EWCM.

You've now begun your two week wait, so the time between ovulation and your period due date. Good luck!

30mummy · 02/01/2023 14:38

Hello,
I hope you dont mind me joining. I think i am around 8dpo, i didnt track ovulation but i got EWCM for 2 days so it would be around cd12.
Yesterday i had a sharp needle like pain for around 20 seconds and then a few twinges.
Last night and today my right hip has had a heartbeat of its own (on amd off) i also have sore boobs today, more heavy than sore.
I checked my cervix and it feels high but have attached a picture (sorry tmi) has anyone had it like this before?
I am trying for my first so not sure if im 'symptom spotting'

@pennysays I feel you this was me last week hope you are OK ❤️

MrsSprouse · 02/01/2023 13:59

Sorry about your period @pennysays , hope you're OK x

@TTC5yearsx I see a line x

Pitstop1986 · 02/01/2023 13:18

I'm so sorry @pennysays at least you have a brand new cycle to focus on. It's a new year, new starts and endless possibilities! Good luck for this month!

@TTC5yearsx I can definitely see something, but you are quite early on so hopefully this develops into a very clear positive as you near your period due date

It's interesting to hear howany people are getting tummy flutters/cramps and disturbed sleep. I feel like we're all syncing symptoms! 😂

MrsL22 · 02/01/2023 13:11

I keep sitting down thinking I’ve got cramps but honestly think it’s in my head. If AF comes early I’ll be devastated 😭

Downtherabbithole83 · 02/01/2023 12:59

Sorry to hear that @pennysays . Hope that you’re doing okay xx

@MrsL22 our decorations are down and in the loft. Think that was about 3dpo 😂

MrsL22 · 02/01/2023 12:52

@TTC5yearsx this looks really promising 😇🙏🏼 Fingers tightly crossed for you and hoping for many BFP this month for us all

TTC5yearsx · 02/01/2023 12:28

Thank you❤️. I thought this… but other tests haven’t picked anything up yet. I’m still so early at 10dpo but wondfo is meant to be 20miu so I’m shocked! Period due 8th Jan. it’s my partners birthday on Wednesday too. I would love to surprise him 🥺

Top is last night hence it’s so dry
2nd down is with fmu sample at 5 mins
3rd down is 4th wee of the day at 5 mins
bottom I dipped in water because I thought the batch could be dodgey and as you can see no sniff of a line on that one! Also at 5 mins

There's definitely a line. Don't even need to zoom in. Congratulations. Keep testing x

TTC5yearsx · 02/01/2023 12:24

Hoping every one of you gets your BFP. This is an awful ride at times. I’ve had 4 losses, one ectopic and 4 miscarriages. None to term yet. This was our first month TTC after I had a hycosy 15th December to check my left remaining tube!

@pennysays sorry to hear this! At least you’re no longer in limbo and you can prepare for next cycle. New year, new possibilities.

Well everyone, as a distraction I’ve decided to tackle taking the Christmas decorations down 😂 Get me out of this flunk thinking I’m not pregnant!

Emmamoo89 · 02/01/2023 12:19

TTC5yearsx · 02/01/2023 12:15

You’re exactly the same as me! I think I just got an early BFP but am unsure

Post a pic of ya test

Emmamoo89 · 02/01/2023 12:13

I'll be testing Wednesday too. 🤞🤞

pennysays · 02/01/2023 11:52

My period has arrived. Ah well. It was nice to dream for a bit.

Downtherabbithole83 · 02/01/2023 11:21

Meh day is the perfect phrase!

MrsL22 · 02/01/2023 11:15

Also not holding out much hope tbh. No boob soreness, no nausea, no typical symptoms but then also know it’s still early so my mind is all over the place.
Maybe this is our ‘meh’ day. Hopefully lots of BFP on Wednesday will pick us up!

Realityversus · 02/01/2023 10:55

I know what you mean about the disturbed sleep @Pitstop1986 Everytime I feel anything I'm like ooh maybe!! I don't think there's such a thing as tmi when it comes to conceiving and pregnancy 😂

I'm with you all on the Wednesday club although like you @Downtherabbithole83 I'm not holding much hope!
