Anyone else TTC #1? Just looking for TTC buddies!

@mum2liam1 congratulations on your BFP, hoping for you that the Clear Blue confirms it

@Piglet34 I've got my fingers crossed for you that this could be your cycle for a BFP. I'm also due for AF Thurs/Fri.

It's reassuring to hear from everyone on this thread the hypersensitivity to symptom spotting. I got a BFN on an early test Tuesday, trying to convince myself into holding off the next test until Saturday if no AF at that point. But not convinced my willpower will hold out 😅

@FlyingHighFlyingLow I tested this morn 12dpo and was a bfn :( so think im most likely out this month! Good luck with the rest of your TWW when are you planning to test?

@kalixxx wahooo glad you got your peak :) I know the symptom spotting drives me crazy, every time I say I'm not going to and then it's just natural to do it! Can't decide about trying next cycle as I would be due Christmas Eve. I know babies will come when they want to but it's quite likely to be sometime close to Xmas or early jan. Seems annoying to skip a month though so can't decide what to do!

Congrats @mum2liam1!

Fingers crossed for you @Piglet34 🤞 when do you think you'll test?

Last month I had everything! Tiredness, nausea, cramps, spotting, metal mouth, reflux - but my DH also had the same (bar cramps) because we had the same virus 😂. I'm 6dpo today and I have zero symptoms of anything. Then again, I'm not holding out much hope as DH got sick again so we had sex 2 days before my peak (so I guess 3 days before ovulation) then not again until 2dpo.

@kalixxx good news that your OPKs are getting darker now. I'm crossing my fingers for you it comes in the next few days! Is your sickness easing off now or still feeling rubbish?

Im 11dpo today and my brown spotting seems to have pretty much gone today and yday, still a few drops but nothing compared to what I had on 7/8/9 dpo. No sign of AF yet but due thurs/fri. I noticed lower back pains when doing yoga this morn but could be from anything I guess! Trying not to get my hopes up symptom spotting too much.

@mum2liam1 progression looks good so far! ☺️

@Kaspery8 welcome ✨ yeah it's totall draining. TWW is the worst as you just feel in limbo. Lead up to ovulation I don't mind as much can kind of resume normal life which is nice aha.

So far been feeling

Headace
Legs hurting
slight cramps
flushes
Peeing alot more
Tierd
Waking
Waves of feeling sick and funny taste in mouth

I'm still not convinced yet till I get clearblue as where I had the chemical it's still so worrying , but happy with the progression line so far , do u think it look like a normal progression

@mum2liam1 congratulations on your BFP!!🤍✨

@Kaspery8 welcome to the thread, I hope this thread can bring you some support and can lighten your load a little. Fingers crossed for a BFP asap xx

Hi all, this is my first post on mumsnet. I'm 32 and been TTC currently in TWW of cycle 3. I had no idea how emotionally draining this would be

Couldn't sleep so got up so early ... must of been on my mind , tested with fmu and postive

11pdo

@Nmmck93 aw sorry to hear that, but yes super good luck for the next cycle!

@mum2liam1 looking good then, those lines look a good amount of darkness for 10dpo. Fingers crossed for you when the frer comes x

10dpo roughly

@FlyingHighFlyingLow @Piglet34 - took a test first thing this morning BFN. Last nights test was a strange one. Maybe just a faulty test as they are super cheap ones.
lets hope for a BFP next month.

@mum2liam1 I can definitely see lines on those pictures! What dpo are you?

@Nmmck93 that's strange! I know some people do say they sometimes have a bleed but then get a bfp. Did you take another test today in the end ? Fingers crossed for you :)

@FlyingHighFlyingLow wow sparring that sounds fun! Yeah I guess just take it easy as poss aha

Been testing after 3 hr holds today

Done one at 12.06 - positve strong

3.12pm - postive strong
4.30 pm postive

All came up straight away ..... I'm really hoping get another strong in the morning and waiting for frer test to come I'm really having everything crossed

This is negative image also .

Have had weird feeling last week. Cramping on Thur, headaces , overcome sick feeling yesterdaboobse , boob are a little tender today day.

Had chemical last month but couldn't help testing early I know I shouldn't but this time I've not mention results to anyone not even husband , thought I'd see progression and then hopefully get stronger lines and test then do a clearblue after period is due , want to surpilrse him on 1st wedding anniversary if postive

What do you girls think af due Thursday, this was after 3 hr hold

@KIWI2023 hadn't heard about Premom or SMEP before this discussion - got Premom now too for another app to use 🥴

I uploaded the photo I had of my questionable peak on OPK CD10 to premom (test line was really dark on the left side but then got faint in colour to the right) and the app said it was pretty low so I'm just gunna keep testing for this week to see if anything changes!

Fingers crossed for everyone on TWW and for BFP to come soon! 🤞

Fingers crossed for you both @Piglet34 @Nmmck93 .

I'm 5dpo today/6 days after my peak, nothing to report at all. Boobs fine, no cramps, no spotting, no reflux. I have become bizarrely spotty though 🤷‍♀️. I'm supposed to be sparring Tuesday (I do MMA), but not really sure what the guidance there is! I'll get thrown around a lot but don't usually take stomach hits.

Oh @Piglet34 hopefully it just a little too early yet!

I have an update;
I had my AF Monday to Wednesday- then nothing Thursday (except once when I wiped) then on Friday had a some bleeding.
Woke up this morning feeling exceptional nauseous and was gagging over the toilet but not being sick, sitting tonight and I have a twinge pain in my stomach, took a test and I swore there was a line, and my OH seen a very faint line. But now is completely gone and over the time limit.
we swore we missed last months fertile window but now I’m not so sure. Will test in the morning with FMU and see.
I have been having really weird OPK tests being super high then low.

no-one ever tells you how hard actually planning and trying for a baby really is and the amount of stress we go through to achieve it.

hoping your BFP comes in the next few days

Hey there @Piglet34, thank you for being so welcoming.

Fingers crossed for you and really hope you get a BFP over the coming days🤞🏽 xx

Welcome new ladies ❤️ lovely to have more along on this crazy TTC journey! I agree I never imagined that this is what it would be like and so nice to have somewhere to talk about it all.

I stupidly did a test this morn at 9dpo and bfn 😞 had a lot of brown spotting and unusual cramps yday and thought AF was coming but then gone today. Feeling sick this eve but could be because I ate so much 🤣🤣 hope your all having a nice weekend xxx
