Hey guys, hope you don't mind me joining. My friendship group dosen't understand my obsessiveness with the TWW.
I'm on cycle #4 TTC#2. We were lucky to fall pregnant 1st time with DS.
Currently 6dpo, potential due date 26th December 😊always disliked the idea of a Christmas baby but now I want nothing more!

@Floralsandsmiles when is AF due? Do you normally get spotting beforehand? Xxx

I didn't used to @Angelselevenx . But the last 3 months I have. 6 days before and then 4 days of AF 😔 it didn't start until 9dpo last month though xxx

@Floralsandsmiles so sorry; hope it’s not what you think it is 💗

Yes, I'm worried it's the normal spotting before AF 😞 xxx

@Floralsandsmiles hello 😊 I'm getting there thank you! Waiting for this bloody AF to bugger off so I can start collaring the OH again 🤣

Oh wow these all sound promising!! I've really got my fingers crossed for you. The shooting pains, did they feel like a pinching sensation? I had that last month and then went on to google and there's such thing as an implantation pinch!

I got a faint BFP on 9DPO and then a stronger one on 10DPO so either of those could show something. If it was implantation on 6dpo then you would need 3-4 days to show hcg so I think anyday from tomorrow 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 xxx

O honey! I have been thinking of you @Angelselevenx . So happy that you are in a new cycle and you can look forwards. It a nice way to look at a shit situation, you are stronger than I.

I had a pinching in the day I believe, between the cramps.. the shooting pain was more like a lightning bolt though..

Ooo OK, in that case, I will wait until Monday then at 10dpo xxx

@Floralsandsmiles how are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms so far? Haven't been keeping up with this thread too much past few days.

@bringmearainbow I did however see earlier that you'd started testing? How many dpo are you?

I'm hoping my cycles aren't too messed up this coming cycle and I've already started tracking my LH just to get a baseline 🤣

Aww hi @Angelselevenx 👋, how are you darling?

Well, I promised myself I wouldn't symptom spot as last month I was convinced and devasted!
However on the evening of 5dpo I couldn't sleep as I was hotter than hell. Then in the day of 6dpo I went to London and I was burning up all day, had loads of CM and tender breasts. Then the evening I had heavy cramping and then a few shooting pains through my lady parts.. so all sounded promising!
Yesterday was 7dpo and I had a pink tinge in my CM after one wipe and nothing since. Today at 8dpo I have tender breasts still and cramping. A wet feeling on CM too.
So I'm feeling hopeful, but prepared for worst again.. just in case...

I don't know if to test tomorrow or Monday? (9/10dpo) or to wait longer xxx

OP posts:
Angelselevenx · 08/04/2023 20:23

@bringmearainbow eek not too much longer to wait! 🤞🏼

Well I started spotting on 01/04 which is when AF was due anyway but it didn't get really heavy until 3 days ago so I literally have no idea when it actually started 🤦🏽‍♀️

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 20:12

@Daniki ahh I hope we are too 🤞🏼

@Angelselevenx I did indeed I'm only 8dpo today so not shocked to see a BFN ahh it's good to get a baseline. Hopefully they won't be too messed up how many days later did AF come?

lottieb92 · 08/04/2023 20:05

@Floralsandsmiles Its just totally preference With early or not! But commonly ladies get positives at 9/10dpo!
So not unheard of - if you want to test go for it I say! X

Mmmm I may well do tomorrow then at 10dpo @lottieb92 xxx

Does anyone know what part of the stomach will feel tender if early pregnant? Mine is super tender below belly button and a line along there xxx

In fairness 8 adults 3 kids… so still tough, but it’ll keep me ticking until Monday test day 🤪

anybody else testing then?!

I'm testing Monday as I will be 10dpo. That's if I don't start spotting by then.. xxx

@bringmearainbow haha ah sure I'm the same testing away like a lunatic 🥹😂 hopefully we're both lucky 🙏 x

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 19:20

@Daniki I started testing yesterday 😬 I have zero patience this cycle apparently 😳

Daniki · 08/04/2023 19:16

@bringmearainbow oh we can wait together! 🙏 when will you test? If I don't get pregnant this cycle Il get the ovulation tests and start tracking! Xx

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 18:39

@Daniki miscarriages can change all sorts it's really annoying when you just want your cycle to be normal. CM is usually a pretty good indication I ovulated on 31st too so you've def still got time to get a BFP 🤞🏼
