TWW 1dpo today - who's with me?

292 replies

Hello!

Im just at the start of my TWW!

TTC cycle 1 (unofficially 6months)
Baby number 2 (DD is 2.5yrs old)
CD 18
Cycle length approx 25-29days long
1DPO today
AF due approx 31/1

Me and DH have been unofficially TTC baby number 2 for about 6months, so basically not been using any protection but not tracking my cycles either and just leaving it up to fate. However this month I've been doing OPKs and got a positive test on Wednesday and then a spike in my BBT this morning so pretty sure I can pin point my ovulation at some point yesterday putting me at about 1dpo today! DH and I have been DTD regularly throughout my fertile window this month so feeling hopeful!

Who wants to join me for the TWW?

@Carysmatic test! :)
sounds promising with the nausea! 10dpo tomorrow so could still be early but worth a FRER 🤗

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 21:32

@Carysmatic yes it was this morning, I’ve got loads of easy at home cheapies as well as frers but I’m thinking wait until 12 DPO and then at least I’ll know for sure one way or the other. I’ve looked at the one I did this morning about 1000000000 times today 😂 googled stuff, wondered if it was an evap but it came up straight away and it’s got a pink colour to it, plus I feel bloody pg 😴 I’ll probably cave and do one in all honesty.
All good signs for you then, fingers crossed Aaf stays away. Please do one tomorrow to satisfy me if no one else 🤣

@MrsSB2023 was your faint positive from this morning? Are you not going to test again tomorrow to see some progression? If I had a faint positive I'd probably test every time I wee'd just to see it get darker 😂

@MrsSB2023 not helping 😂

I feel like sh!t! Tonsillitis is the worst, I've slept most of the day so dunno if the fatigue is because of potentially being PG or just the tonsillitis! I've also been feeling low level nauseous the last few days and nearly threw up when brushing my teeth this morning, when PG with DD I'd literally be sick every morning when brushing my teeth because my morning sickness was so bad and brushing my teeth made me gag! So that could be a good sign I guess? Will probably give in and test with the cheapie tests tomorrow with FMU and then depending what that says either do a FRER when they arrive or wait until Tuesday/Wednesday

Oh @Carysmatic im actually dying for you to test 😂 I haven’t retested today I’m scared of getting a BFN! Cramps have been back but they are so strong, last for an hour or so and then go almost like early labour pains it’s so weird! Two days on the run they’ve been like that for now. Had another nap this evening feel absolutely knackered but a bit run down too. I’m going to try not to test tomorrow and test on Monday when I’ll be 11/12 DPO. It’s so tempting though isn’t it. I think you’ve done well to get this far haha! How are you feeling?

CD25 9DPO and the urge to test is getting strong! AF due on the 31st.....only for these little cheapie tests from boots but have ordered some FRER which should be here tomorrow so dunno if I'll test tomorrow when I get them or wait for Mondays FMU. Oooor wait until Feb 1st when AF will be one day late! Talk me down 😂

Oh @Luna0905 I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm really hoping it's not for your sake but if you say it's heavy bleeding then it sounds like it probably is. Though you can be more fertile after a CP. I had a CP when TTC DD and literally fell pregnant with her the cycle after the CP, the bleed that I had was like a really heavy period and then I ovulated later than normal and fell pregnant. So hopefully that can give you a bit of hope in this difficult time! Sending you big hugs xxx

Sophie3839 · 28/01/2023 17:09

Sorry @Luna0905 really hope it isn’t a cp and have everything crossed for you. Hope you are as ok as can be x

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 16:46

Oh @Luna0905 I’m so sorry to hear that 😞 gutted for you! This is the problem with testing early isn’t it I suppose, that is my worry too but you just can’t help yourself 😞 big hugs I hope you’re as ok as can be and I’m sure you’ll get your sticky BFP soon xxxx

Luna0905 · 28/01/2023 14:46

Hi ladies, since I posted this morning I’ve been bleeding very heavily. Looks like this one might have been a CP. Absolutely gutted.
Thoughts are with everyone else due to test xx

Sophie3839 · 28/01/2023 14:23

Congratulations @Luna0905 and @MrsSB2023 how exciting! 🥰

LucyEleanorModeratz · 28/01/2023 10:36

And of course to you too @Luna0905 - you must be utterly delighted! How are you feeling ?

As @Carysmatic said hopefully this becomes a thread of BFPs! Pretty sure I’m out as I have none of the symptoms I had at this stage last month with my chemical, but I’m living vicariously through the rest of you 😁

Congratulations both @Luna0905 and @MrsSB2023 both look like BFPs to me! I hope that bodes well for the rest of us! Seems to be lots of baby dust in this thread already! Long may it continue! You guys are definitely making me want to test but I'm going to hold out a little longer! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Can definitely see it on that one too @MrsSB2023 xx

Luna0905 · 28/01/2023 10:06

Ah thank you @MrsSB2023 I did start to think I was seeing things. Cramps are slightly better today now too ☺️ So nice to find others in the same boat xxx

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 10:05

This is a cheapie co op one

TWW 1dpo today - who's with me?
MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 10:01

Yay @Luna0905 i can definitely see it. So exciting xx

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 10:00

Thanks girls! I won’t believe it til I see a dark line. Had bad cramping yesterday but nothing today and feel really nauseous this morning.
@Carysmatic sorry to hear you’re not well tonsillitis is awful 😞 hope you’re feeling better soon xx

Luna0905 · 28/01/2023 09:59

Hope you’re feeling better this morning @Carysmatic @Sophie3839 there’s seems to be a lot of nasty illnesses at the moment still!

@MrsSB2023 I definitely see something there!! That’s so exciting! let us know how your line progression is!

I woke up around 6 desperate to pee so did a FRER and definitely got a darker line than Thursday. It’s quite hard to see in the pic but DH agrees it’s darker in person. I couldn’t even get it to show in a pic at all from 2 days ago.

Must be around 9/10/11dpo so still very early. I don’t really have a clue this month when I ovulated as we were taking a break from OPK and Letrozole while we were on holiday from new year until mid jan 🙈😂 dtd every single day on holiday pretty much 😂

i’ll hold out until Monday morning to test again, hopefully will be darker then xxx

Sorry ladies I’ve been lurking but not posting after a hectic week at work. Congratulations @MrsSB2023 ! What a fabulous start to the weekend :)

@MrsSB2023 Oooo I think I see something! Very faint but then it is only early days! Congratulations! Hope you start getting a darker line soon!

I'm too scared to test this early, I may test on Monday but I dunno yet! I'll see how long I can hold out until. Still feeling like crap this morning but that's all down to the tonsillitis. At least hubby is home so I can have a day in bed to recover

Sophie3839 · 28/01/2023 08:39

Woohoo yes I see a line! Congratulations :)
still full of cold here and all symptoms gone. Think I’m out for this month but I’ll be keeping an eye out for more bfps ❤️
baby dust to all x

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 08:23

@Myperfectchaos haha! I started peeing on OPKs a few days ago just for the fun of it 😂

Myperfectchaos · 28/01/2023 07:57

Ah exciting! I find pictures are so hard to see because the quality is always rubbish! Fingers crossed u see some progression on tomorrows test!!

im itching to test but it’s still too early! Might do a cheapy one Just for no reason haha

MrsSB2023 · 28/01/2023 07:55

Please ignore the false tan on my fingers 😂
