Hey everyone!

Is anyone else trying TTC #1?

I think I’m 9DPO although my cycles vary from 28-34 days so I’m really not sure. This is my first cycle TTC so I haven’t tracked ovulation.

I took a clear blue ultra early digital test this morning and BFN, I’ve heard digitals aren’t as accurate, is that true? (The way the test was laid and how I was sat meant the ‘not’ was in the shadow so for a second I thought it just said pregnant, was gutted!)

Any advice on not driving yourself mad during the TWW? 😂

Morning ladies, I am feeling very lucky as I just got my first BFP. Thank you all for accompanying me through this month. You have all been a life line. Sending each and everyone of you baby dust xx

Congratulations @KIWI2023 , I got this today at 12 dpo so I'm taking this as a definite BFP! Now to pray it isn't a chemical. Good luck and baby dust to all!

@KIWI2023 I can definitely see a faint line there, tentative congratulations and fingers crossed for you. Same to you @FlyingHighFlyingLow

@mum2liam1 fingers crossed for your clear blue tomorrow

@Piglet34 could it have been implantation bleeding rather than the full AF?

FlyingHighFlyingLow · 18/03/2023 18:45

@KIWI2023 fingers crossed! Mine above was 10 dpo, here is the one I did today at 11 dpo. Test again in a day or two?

Hey ladies! I took a FRER today 9DPO as I've been having some weird goings on, sense of smell is really off (crazily so) and pinchy cramps, I should not have done it so early which I know and I did not use FMU or even SMU😂 but now I'm confused as I either have a naughty indent or a VVFL. My own fault for testing early haha!

@Piglet34 oh how strange! I’m guessing that’s not usual for you?

Waiting another month always seems like forever so I’d be the exact same with not wanting to wait 2!

It’s going slowly, how am I only 3 DPO 😩😂 I’m going to try and hold out and wait the full 14 days before testing, pray for me! 😂 x

Piglet34 · 17/03/2023 12:48

@kalixxx I now have no idea what's going on as I had red blood last night , but only when I went to the toilet once, then only a bit a brown over night and nothing today!! 😩 no clue what's happening ...

We have decided to try but not as hard as usual, the thought of waiting two months just sounds horrible! Also going to look into getting some bloods and a scan done to figure out what all this spotting is.. if my full AF ever shows that is!

How's the TWW going for you so far?

@FlyingHighFlyingLow oooh exciting, definitely looks like the start of something, fingers crossed! X

kalixxx · 17/03/2023 11:13

@Piglet34 sorry to hear AF has arrived, do you think you’ll try next month or wait till the cycle after?

@FlyingHighFlyingLow can most definitely see a line! Did it come up straight away? Tentative congratulations, how exciting!! ☺️

NarnieJoy · 17/03/2023 09:46

@FlyingHighFlyingLow yep! Tentative congratulations 🥳 as it’s faint!

which cycle would this be?

2nd cycle ttc#1, was told I was unlikely to conceive naturally, so hoping it isn't an evap, but it did come up within the time

NarnieJoy · 17/03/2023 09:46

@FlyingHighFlyingLow yep! Tentative congratulations 🥳 as it’s faint!

which cycle would this be?

FlyingHighFlyingLow · 17/03/2023 08:41

Just gave in and tested at 10 dpo, zero symptoms, just thought I would in case as I'm supposed to be going out tonight. Can anyone else see something? 😱😱😱

@Piglet34 sorry to hear AF arrived :(

Piglet34 · 16/03/2023 18:40

AF has officially arrived for me so on to the next cycle it is!

Piglet34 · 16/03/2023 11:06

@Kaspery8 sorry to hear AF arrived :(

I know what you all mean about feeling out before it's even begun but this thread is due some more luck so I am really crossing my fingers for you all!! 🤞🏻

AF due tomorrow for me, not showed yet but am still spotting (weirdly only in the evening no clue what that's about!) Think I will test tomorrow morn at 15dpo, expecting a bfn given the result at 12dpo but DH goes away for 10 days from tomoz eve so I need answers ahaha

kalixxx · 16/03/2023 10:09

@KIWI2023 good morning! 😇

I’m only 2 DPO and already feeling negative! 😂 This is only cycle 3 TTC so I know it’s still early days but I’ve convinced myself it won’t happen for us, a little ridiculous I know! Hopefully it’s not PMS and just a bad mood 😂

@FlyingHighFlyingLow hahah thank you, I feel like this is going to be a long one, I ovulated late so I’m already on CD22 and only 2 DPO 😭

OP posts:
KIWI2023 · 16/03/2023 09:03

Good morning ladies💐

How are you all today?

I'm 7DPO today and I feel so negative already😂😂 I'm also super grumpy and feel like PMS is kicking in so I don't have high hopes for this month lol.

Sorry to hear that a few of you have had a difficult few days, sending you all a big hug & baby dust✨

FlyingHighFlyingLow · 15/03/2023 21:51

@Piglet34 @Kaspery8 sorry for your BFNs, I'm 8dpo today so got a couple more days before I can test, though I'm feeling fairly certain it will also be a BFN.

@kalixxx welcome to tww 😂

Kaspery8 · 15/03/2023 16:09

AF arrived for me a day or so early so that's me out for this cycle. I was convinced this was the one 🙄
Anyway, on to the next one, I think we'll carry on trying as before even with the potential for a Christmas week due date.
Good luck and baby dust to all still in the TWW 🙏
