TWW thread around 27/02/23

@TTC53 it's on uktv app. It's amazing! Set at kings fertility in London xxx

Aww hun @Freya8 ! I feel you, I really do! I know some people don't have high enough hormones for pregnancy tests to show before AF is due.. and then we Cling to that hope lol
These symptoms though are a killer! I mean, it feels now we ate more in tune with our bodies, they decide to play up! Lol
Go ahead and Vent! I know I am! My DH thinks I'm going nuts! Lol
I am calmer, but that's probably because I've convinced myself I'm not out yet... I'm sure that will go tits up when I do though lol
I hope we find out what is going on soon! And we can get some clarity to move forward xxxxxx

@TTCagain85 I'm so sorry to hear AF arrived. It never gets easier does it 💛

Hope to hear more positive news soon for those testing in the coming days. I'm still waiting for AF, two to three days late now. The most incredible squinter on a test but I think it's more of an indent/ evap. I just don't know what to think anymore. I guess just waiting it out will tell one way or another.

@Floralsandsmiles what channel is this on please? Sounds interesting.

@Floralsandsmiles repeat after me we arent out until the witch shows... who my kiddin lol inwardly i am crumblin i keep ready stories of ppl who hav implanted late n only got bfp 14dpo and after. What really baffles me is right so say this is the lead up to period coming.. and i wasnt ttc.. am i supposed to accept these god awful symptoms each month over and overrrrrrr like my bloat is shocking shocking i tell you an hasnt really disappeared other than one bloody morning but then came back that night. That aint food related at all as i am never ever bloated like that. So glad i can vent on this wat i really wana do is scream!!! Im pleased you are becoming calmer though about your journey i guess i am just starting out and i tried to fully go in with the mentality of what will be will be but jeez that was out the window by day 3 lollll thats a positive tho bout ur spottin stopping. Hoping this week brings us def answers xxxx

@Freya8 aww bless you! Well done for resisting the urge! Lol 12dpo is good!
Erm spotting has stopped? I had some cramping last night but stopped.its so weird! I did a test this morning and stark white BFN 😔
I just don't get it! I am watching Alex Cross - making babies though and feel abit calmer about IVF should we have to go down this route.. xxxx

@Floralsandsmiles 12dpo havent bothered to test as purposely didnt buy anymore to stop me lol!! Had dull achey cramps. Hows u my lovely? Xxxx

How are you today @Freya8 ? Xxx

@TTCagain85 gutted for you sending you 💗💗 xxxxx

Aww I'm sorry @TTCagain85 , thinking of you xxx

I'm out AF back with a vengeance...good luck to everyone else still waiting for that BFP this month x

Everything is just a wait and see @Piglet34 ! Lol so annoying! 🤣🤣 xxxx

Aw thanks @Floralsandsmiles 🥰 really hoping you get your bfp soon too ✨ think it just guna be a case of wait and see what mood I'm in the morn ! Xxx

Haha @Piglet34 that could be true! It could all build up while you are asleep 😴 🤣

Aww hun, its so hard isn't it! Maybe wait if you're worried to get a BFN? I'm sorry and I have my fingers crossed for you and thinking of you xxxx

Ive deliberately not bought anymore preg tests to stop me testing 🤣 also done that alter the pic of the bfn this morn an i see the faint line but my hubby most def cant

@Floralsandsmiles yeah I sometimes do have a lot in the morning, I feel like it must build up while your laid down and then all comes out 😅 don't know if that's true but is my theory!

I feel the same about testing just so scared to see a bfn (although realistically I know I have to find out the truth in the next few days anyway as AF could show!) Im now wondering whether to wait until weds 13dpo hmmm tricky

@Piglet34 do you know, thats so sensible as I'm feeling the same and think I will follow your lead on that!!

Yes so weird!I mean it wasn't the first wee of the day, but to get a big dollop and then spotting? What the hell??

See mine cramps were quite intense and I thought they were worse than normal AF ones.. It could be because I was so upset to think I was out this month though...

I want to test but I did a FRER last night as spotting was nothing in the AM and then non existent all day. And it was BFN. Stark white actually.. 😔

Worried to do another now.. xxx

@TTC53 I'm 14dpo. Usually LP 12-13days but cramping and lower temp today. That being said I had a really bad nights sleep and ended up in little ones bed.

How many dpo are you?

@Floralsandsmiles no I stopped tracking BBT this cycle as I was noticing that my morning temp would affect my mood for the day, like if I had a temp dip I'd be sad etc and so didn't want the extra stress especially when ttc :)

Hmm yours sounds strange, I guess sadly nothing you can do but wait a few more days and see what happens (easier said than done)! Yeah mine is pretty much just when wiping too, and had cramps on 8dpo but they weren't like period ones felt a lot less intense.

Do you think you might test again over the next few days ?

Hi @Piglet34 👋 I don't want to get my hopes up as the last 2 cycles I have had about 4 -5 days of spotting and then AF for about 3. So I don't know if this is implantation or not, as it only roughly there when I wipe every now and then (and now pink). I remember on the first day a large dollop of CM come out (cloudy) and then the spotting. I thought it was so weird!
But I'm feeling cramping now and then, (alot when spotting started) but i think it's just AF to be honest..

Yours sounds promising! Are you doing BBT? Xxx

Sorry to hear AF arrived @Lilothblos 😔 I hope you treated yourself to a large glass of wine.

Frustrating also @TTCagain85 that your bbt has dipped. What dpo are you?

Everyone else still sounds pretty promising. Really keeping everything crossed and keep us all updated.

AF now between 24-48 hours late, still BFN and BBT went even higher to 37.00 this morning. To say im confused is an understatement!

@Floralsandsmiles that's interesting that your full AF never showed! Am really crossing my fingers for you that is could have been implantation or something.

I'm 11dpo today and brown spotting seems to have mostly gone today and yday. Just a few dots now whereas was quite a bit on 7/8/9dpo. Mine is brown with stringy bits (soz TMI), no idea what it could be but I get it every cycle! Today I noticed lower back pain when doing yoga but could be from anything I guess. Also DTD last night and it was nothing to what it usually feels like which was weird!! Trying not to get my hopes up tbh. AF due thurs or fri so we shall see

Hope everyone else okay today ! Xx

Thank you @Freya8 , I'm sure I'm out, but nice to think its not all over yet. I'm crossing my fingers for you too hun. You girls have honestly saved me losing my mind this month! Xxx

@Floralsandsmiles i still think theres hope as i know 100 percent my sis in law bled proper red blood for 12days now it wouldnt have been filling pads like a period or anything. Obv at the time for her she thought she was out but no shes like 17 weeks now or in and around that xx keep the faith xx

O god! This is a bloody minefield @Freya8 !!!

I'm researching implantation bleeds and everything! Basically it happens on 9DPO (which I was on Friday, so right time), it's followed by cramps (which mine was), is intermittent (which mine is) and you can have hot flashes (which I am!) and can last 1-2 days (which I did). However its pinky/brown and mine was dark red. However yesterday I used a tampon and after the morning nothing was on it, other than few bits of brown. (Sorry too much info).. am I getting my hopes up?!! And its just spotting before AF?! 😕😕 xxxx

@Floralsandsmiles lol ive been on the pill for years since i was 18 i only stopped wen i was tcc my dd n i was preg after 2 weeks no period no withdrawl bleed. So i really have no clue wat my periods would even be like once she was born back on the pill again. Fast forward 6 yrs later lol awh this is a bloody mindfield. We arent out out yet i guess. Jeez am gonna have to go buy more tests 😫 on me lunch break xx
