Ovulation date 25th or 26th March - TWW thread

Hi ladies, who would like to join a TWW thread. My ovulation date is today or tomorrow ❤️

Month 9 TTC baby number 2.

I have a 1 year old who took 16 months to conceive.

I’m 29 and my hubs is 31. We know my husband has a fertility issue so we’re aware it could well be a long road ahead. Not that it makes TTC any more bearable. Every month is depressing when AF arrives!

Would love to share in the TWW with some others!

I know it’s super early but I’ve just had the shock of my life when I got up for a 4:30am wee!

I am SO HAPPY and shocked and excited. But my anxiety is already kicking in. Not wanting to be the unfortunate 1 in 4 statistic.

Congratulations @MrsHopeful95! That looks like a great line to me.

I'm only 3po and the wait is killing me. Keep getting quite a few ovary twinges and pains on the right side and my cervix is very high and closed. I'm aware that implantation won't have occurred yet and therefore I shouldn't be symptom spotting but of course I am. Going to go loopy by 8dpo!

@Jellyfish1956 I read some older threads and a lot have said they thought it was their af but went on to get a positive so I guess the cramps really are the same.

Jellyfish1956 · 06/04/2023 21:50

@emmatcc1 fingers crossed your weird symptoms mean a bfp!

Bailem · 06/04/2023 21:11

Aw @Stillwinston I agree with you. it definitely makes the TWW and the loom of another AF more bare-able when you've got cycle buddies. @TTCing

Still waiting for AF to show up (due Sunday) I've had really a horrid mood the last two days, feel bad for my family, I've been snappy happy! I just want to move on from this irritable mood!

It's lovely to see some positive results too, congratulations x

emmatcc1 · 06/04/2023 20:50

@Jellyfish1956 I have some unusual symptoms this cycle but had a strong af cramp in the uterus and lower back for a good minute also earlier I had mild af cramps maybe a bit too soon for pms.

Ttcdcno1 · 06/04/2023 20:50

@Stillwinston how are you doing?
yeah I’m alright. Still waiting! 😂 yeah I’m going to do one in the morning if AF doesn't appear overnight 🤷🏼‍♀️

Jellyfish1956 · 06/04/2023 20:46

Hi @emmatcc1 I have always wondered this too! I get AF cramps about a week before my period is due and always assume that means I have been unsuccessful. Would love to know if people have had AF cramps and gone on to get a BFP.

emmatcc1 · 06/04/2023 20:19

Is pregnancy cramping the same as af cramping I always feel out when getting just a tiny af like cramp.

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 19:58

Can I just say a massive thanks to all you ladies for keeping me sane during this tww and especially to @TTCing for setting up this thread, it's been so nice to have other people to talk to who understand how I'm feeling 😊 hope everyone's doing ok xxx

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 19:56

@Ttcdcno1 how are you feeling? You going to test tomorrow if AF still hasn't arrived? X

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 19:56

@Baconbinge there's no denying those tests! Massive congratulations, here's hoping you have a nice and easy 9 months 😊❤️

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 19:54

Hi @MrsHopeful95 🖐️ definitely looks like the start of a bfp, congratulations 🎉 will keep everything crossed for you xx

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 19:45

@MrsHopeful95 congratulations x

TTC53 · 06/04/2023 19:33

Loving all the positives on this thread! Welcome and congratulations @MrsHopeful95, really thrilled for you

Let's hope the bfps keep rolling in

MrsHopeful95 · 06/04/2023 16:35

Hi ladies, been watching from a far as this is my third “normal” cycle after d&c last year. Static smiley on clear blue on 26th so imagine I ovulated around the 27th March.

10 DPO today and just had this off a 3 hour hold 🙈 praying this is it for me. I have a short luteal phase of only 8/9 days. Hoping for a stronger line tomorrow and for some more BFP on this thread xx

Thank you @NoodleQueen90 ☺️ I'm not due AF until Monday so going to now hold off until then. I don't have anymore at home so just need to avoid the shops 😂.

Thank you @TTC53 I'm still in shock. I haven't had any symptoms at all. This is cycle 3 for me and probably the first month where I hadn't convinced myself I was pregnant. I have had some very mild cramping but that's all. I'm only around 10 or 11 dpo (don't know for sure as I haven't tracked) so it is still very early I guess for symptoms.

Ttcdcno1 · 06/04/2023 13:54

AF supposedly due today but no sign as of yet🤔usually like clockwork. Just want it to come now so we can start the new cycle

TTC53 · 06/04/2023 13:45

Oh my goodness another bfp on the thread. Congrats @Baconbinge ! Did you have any symptoms or do anything different this month? Some super strong lines there for you

8 dpo for me, and like clockwork my breasts started to become tender yesterday like each cycle. Think this means I'll be out as surely my body would react differently if i was pregnant but I'm trying (!) not to obsess and don't want to test unless af is late this month to help my mental health in this rollercoaster

NoodleQueen90 · 06/04/2023 13:38

Congrats @Baconbinge 🎉
I'm resisting further tests until at least Monday...I've felt nauseous a couple of times today which is a good sign but not sure if it's just in my head 😂

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 13:02

@Stillwinston im due Sunday or Monday, I have some frer being delivered tomorrow x

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 12:59

@Mummy1502 AF due Saturday or Sunday. When are you due on? Sorry to hear about your test, it's so disappointing isn't it 😕

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 12:57

@Stillwinston when is af due? Mine are whiter than white also x
