2WW AF due 29th March

Anyone want to join me in the 2WW?

I think I ovulated yesterday. I had been using the clearblue digital ovulation tests, but ran out of test sticks on Tuesday, which is typical! I did have EWCM Monday until yesterday and this morning it seems to have turned sticky. I also got pains in my left lower belly yesterday, so the signs all point to yesterday as ovulation day.

Unfortunately we didn't dtd yesterday as me and DH both have covid... last time we dtd was Sunday night, so I'm already at a disadvantage this month, but still hoping, and I'll still be getting excited about everything little twinge or symptom that I feel over the next 2 weeks!

This is my 4th cycle TTC, we already have DD who's 14 months. Fingers crossed and baby dust everywhere!

Ohhh wow quite a few BFP!!!! Massive congrats!!!

To the lady asking about the line darkening, i am pretty sure this darkeness of the line doesnt mean anything. I know its hard not to worry though!!

Hello everyone,

I’m in a bit of shock, DH have been TTC for over a year and we received a MFI diagnosis two months ago. I was preparing for IVF this July, but after deciding to give TTC a rest for a month.

AF was due Monday 27th, I noticed I had implantation bleeding on Fri 24th and couldn’t resist an early test. Pregnant! Doctor confirmed, early days but due approx 3rd December.

So far so good, but ouch the lower right side of my abdomen is quite uncomfortable, I’m ravenous and have a huge thirst!

Anyone else feeling the early symptoms? And the nerves?

Hope bean sticks

So my lines haven't progressed and have stayed the same. I haven't got any af symptoms but feeling really deflated. Just found hsve to have a knee op too so just hating this week. Am now 14dpo and would have thought a line should darken by now?

I got a shadow at 12dpo... I'm hoping that this turns into something! I'm so excited!

Sorry - removed my last message as I posted it too quickly without finishing my text! 🙈

Had waited until 11 DPO to do my first test! Fingers crossed for everyone else on tww - now a different type of nerves have set in!

I know what you mean, last month I was nauseous, dizzy and constantly over heating I was so bad I was even off work I was convinced I was pregnant. Hopefully it’s just taking a longer time to show. I’m not retesting now until I’m really late.

I had another negative this morning at 11dpo. Frustrating as I've got it into my head that I'm pregnant this month. My RHR has come up another bpm today as well, just giving my crazy brain further confirmation that I am pregnant!

OP posts:
LolaStanley1 · 29/03/2023 09:13

Anybody done any more tests? My apps say I’m late but a test yesterday says negative. I didn’t use FMU but thought it wouldn’t matter if I was late. Woke up today with period type symptoms heavy feeling and cramping.. so not hopeful. I told myself not to get sad about it but I’m finding myself feeling sad today.

fiokat · 28/03/2023 13:58

Not tested again today as I used the last test yesterday and didn't realise....going out tonight for some more after work so can test fmu tomorrow. Fingers crossed for me cos I have a bad feeling....dont know why but just struggling to stay positive atm! Wish me luck...will update tomorrow 👍

Angelselevenx · 28/03/2023 13:39

@fiokat how are you doing today? Have you tested again? X

Some people think that RHR increases after implantation, although others say that it doesn't increase until after about 6 weeks. There's a few threads on here about it.

It's just something that I've noticed and I'm very prone to symptom spotting during the tww, so it's another symptom to spot! Haha

That’s interesting, what is the theory behind that?

Pitstop1986 · 28/03/2023 08:25

10 dpo and another bfn.
My resting HR has increased another beat per minute, so I'm now 5 beats per minute above my usual RHR and there's usually only variation of a beat or two, so that's a new and interesting development

LolaStanley1 · 27/03/2023 15:53

Maybe it’s just not strong enough to test yet, not having AF is a good sign!

I decided to do a test even though I told myself I’m not early testing and I got a BFN. Premom says AF is due tomorrow so that’s not too hopeful and I used a FRER. Apple health and Flo now say AF due 9/4! Don’t know why it’s been extended so much.

LittleWings22 · 27/03/2023 14:10

Hello and welcome newbies!!!

I tested on Fri and was a BFN not even a whisper of a line or AF im really quite sick today and am really temped to get a few cheapies and see as ive had sickness now for nearly 2 weeks....

It gives me hope as I bet that you wouldn't have seen much of a line if you'd tested yesterday, you're 2 dpo ahead of me, so I've still got time!

I'm 36 too (37 in a couple of weeks) and starting to feel old!

OP posts:
fiokat · 27/03/2023 13:08

Thanks @Pitstop1986 it is my first test but my second (hopefully baby). Am 36 though so wasn't sure how long it wud take. Feeling cautiously hopeful. Now I have to work out how to focus for rest of the day...🙈
Sending love and baby dust to all x

I see it @fiokat !!! Woohoo! Tentative congratulations! I can't wait to see how that line progresses in the next day or two!! Is this your first test?

OP posts:
fiokat · 27/03/2023 13:05

I think I see a line...it came up after 3 mins and before the 10 mins so am hopeful. Currently 11dpo. What does everyone think?

Has anybody ever had thrush as an early symptom? I feel like I’ve got thrush now :/

Lollywhite · 27/03/2023 12:49

@Pitstop1986 it’s very strange! I’ve got a pelvic examination on Wednesday at GP! no further update to report but spotting has stopped.. I really don’t feel like AF will come this month.

It’s still early for you too, I’ve been using easy @ home preg tests but heard on here they’re not as sensitive as they make out!

My pelvis feels heavy, I thought my boobs were sore last night (although this could be psychosomatic) and my bowels are sluggish. My resting HR has also jumped up a couple of beats per minute. I'm definitely overthinking everything- that's what prompted me to test this morning
