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!

Welcome @Ttcdcno1 ! Yes, it’s really nice to find a supportive group!

Ttcdcno1 · 04/04/2023 17:25

Hi @Shutte sorry to hear you’ve had such a difficult journey so far💕
I was following threads from the shadows for a while but it’s been so nice to join and feel like you’ve got people to talk to that understand x

Mummy1502 · 04/04/2023 17:22

@Stillwinston yea I’ve had my fair share of false positives in the past too so I’m used to the heartbreak when af arrives, I know il still be upset this month if it’s negative but I’m trying to stay positive about it, I’m due on in 5-6 days so I keep thinking whatever symptoms I do get will be period related x

Stillwinston · 04/04/2023 17:20

@Mummy1502 Definitely a good idea, it's so easy to overthink these things and misinterpret every single twinge so you've got the right attitude about it

Mummy1502 · 04/04/2023 17:19

@Stillwinston tender right boob and yellow cm I’ve noticed now also, been trying to keep busy today with housework and cut my grass to save my husband a job, out with the kids tomorrow so half term keeping me occupied x

Mummy1502 · 04/04/2023 17:18

@Stillwinston im really trying to be chill and not overanalyse as after going through the chemical and loss il be on edge thinking it will happen again x

Stillwinston · 04/04/2023 17:17

@Mummy1502 I'm always starving 😂 but if it's a different kind of hunger than normal then could possibly be the start of something promising 🤞

Stillwinston · 04/04/2023 17:15

@Amber125 massive congratulations 🎉 so chuffed we finally have our first positive on this thread 🥳😀

@Shutte welcome! Sorry to hear that your journey has been far from easy so far - this has been a really supportive group so hopefully we can all keep each other sane over the coming days and weeks 🤞

Bailem · 04/04/2023 15:45

I'm sorry to hear you've had a difficult journey @Shutte hopefully knowing you aren't on this journey alone makes it a little easier for you x

Mummy1502 · 04/04/2023 15:27

Anyone else starving? I can’t stop eating! Nothing seems to fill me up and im
craving all sorts of different things I don’t normally like, hoping it’s not the lead up to the dreaded arrival of af x

Mummy1502 · 04/04/2023 15:26

Congratulations @Amber125 x

Shutte · 04/04/2023 15:18

Thanks for the welcome! I’m going to try and hold out until my period is due for testing. I’ve had four miscarriages so a positive is only the start of weeks of waiting and second guessing for me - not sure I can cope starting the rigmarole any earlier!!

@Amber125 - amazing to get a positive so early!

TTC53 · 04/04/2023 14:59

Yay @Amber125! Amazing news, I'm glad you could confirm with another test today 💛 did you do anything different this cycle?

Welcome @Shutte. Join us in the madness of TWW where we second guess everything!

Amber125 · 04/04/2023 14:24

@emmatcc1 sore boobs only started yesterday morning so 8dpo. Cm has been pale yellow and sort of stringy (tmi sorry) but there hasn’t actually been that much of it so didn’t notice it too much. I don’t think I’d of seen a faint line if I’d have tested any earlier than yesterday so you’re definitely not out yet! X

Amber125 · 04/04/2023 14:22

@Ttcdcno1 thank you lovely!💖

emmatcc1 · 04/04/2023 14:06

@Amber125 When did your sore boobs start and what about cm. I had period cramps last night at 6dpo thought I was out so this gives me hope.

Ttcdcno1 · 04/04/2023 13:48

@Amber125 congratulations 💕

Amber125 · 04/04/2023 13:42

Oh also forgot, tiredness too. Been falling asleep really early the last 2 or 3 nights but tbh I put that down to me being poorly but now I think it was a symptom.

Amber125 · 04/04/2023 13:39

@Bailem thank you! And yeah few symptoms here are the ones that I picked up on:

cramps in my back and pelvis like my period was coming, had those like near enough every day since ovulation

sore and heavy boobs especially near my armpit

acne

vivid dreams about pregnancy but not sure if that’s because i was already thinking about it lol

Increased hunger

Strange taste in my mouth

and then the last one is ive had a cold/flu type of illness for the last few days which I got when I found out i was pregnant with my second child but not fully sure if it’s related.

these cramps I’m having are really painful though and feel exactly like AF pains!

Bailem · 04/04/2023 13:27

@Amber125 Fantastic, congratulations! Do you have any symptoms to take the tests?

Hi @Shutte you only need one so welcome to the waiting game

Shutte · 04/04/2023 13:24

Hi! Can I join too? I think I ovulated on 27 March. Not holding out much hope this cycles as only had sex twice! This is our second month of trying after recovering from an ectopic last year.

Amber125 · 04/04/2023 13:21

Forgot I had a cheap test in the back of a cupboard from a few months ago. Looks like I have a definite answer 😯
