Hey, mind if I join in? 😊 Some company on this 2ww would be appreciated! I'm only 1dpo, my first cycle using temps and ovulation tests. I'm pretty confused as to when I ovulated - I got my peak day CD13 and my temp rose day 15 so I'm thinking I ovulated CD14... We only were able to dtd on days 12 and 14 so I'm hoping we've caught the egg 😬

Yep really impatient 😂 you are not alone

I was feeling really calm about waiting to test but now I'm in the window where I could take a 6 day early test I'm really struggling to wait or think of anything else 😂 anyone else feeling impatient?

Same! Normally I am dead relaxed and don’t even notice the TWW window but now I’m finding I want to rush the days away.

Can I join your please? We have only done it once this month, I am meant to ovulate tomorrow but I never got a positive surge. I had light lines a couple of days ago and feel I have already ovulated. I’m so excited to start trying for baby number 2! It’s been a long road. Good luck everyone 😊

Daniki · 30/04/2023 21:16

@tulipsunday aw same sick of it 😂😂

tulipsunday · 30/04/2023 20:26

Totally @Daniki 😂😂 will be amazing when can live my life without constantly weeing on sticks lol

Daniki · 30/04/2023 18:26

Hey @tulipsunday oh I hope it's your month! 🥰🙌 absolute pain in the arse TTC 🙈

tulipsunday · 30/04/2023 18:24

Also have had mixed symptoms during 2ww when pregnant - sometimes some and sometimes none so it is so hard to call it. Sorry to hear about people's losses ❤️ TTC after miscarriage is particularly gruelling.

Hey @Daniki! Nice to see you here. We are other ends of 2ww - I am 9dpo 😬 so bfp or AF not too long away.. Testing Tuesday

BuzzieBo · 30/04/2023 17:16

@PurplePanda9 I will be testing Thursday morning- hoping the best for you! I also had a miscarriage at 11 weeks. I had very sore boobs before testing last time so trying not to read too much into the fact I don't have sore boobs at the moment.

NicSC93 · 30/04/2023 17:00

Hello everyone!
Can I join please? I'm 1dpo today and not looking forward to the TWW 😂.

Daniki · 30/04/2023 16:42

Hi! 👋 I'm 1dpo, starting the TWW now!

Will try and leave it as long as poss to test but deep down I know I that I'll be testing this day next week 😂

PurplePanda9 · 30/04/2023 16:30

BuzzieBo · 30/04/2023 16:15

@PurplePanda9 Part of me wants to wait until my missed period to test but I will be away with work so think I'm going to test just before I go which will be 13 DPO - 2 days before my period is due. I have zero symptoms except very mild stomach cramps which could be anything.

When I fell pregnant in November (which ended in a mc at 8 weeks) I had zero symptoms before testing and got a bfn on 9 dpo then my bfp on 12 dpo. I didn’t test in between those days so don’t know if I would have gotten one earlier than 12 dpo. I have an 11 day luteal phase so this was the day after my expected period.

I’m going to test on Friday morning (which will be 10 dpo) as I have plans on Friday night and over the weekend.

Trying not to stress as I was going to wait a few months to ttc due to an imminent house move, so trying to just take the relax approach and it will happen when it happens. Easier said than done sometimes though.

What day is 13 dpo for you? When will you be testing?

How is everyone today?

I’ve had loads of creamy discharge today and temps are still up but I don’t know what they normally look like as this is only my second month charting and last month they were a bit of a mess due to illness.

When is everyone going to test?

Good luck @BuzzieBo I am also TTC after a loss (most recent one was in December). It can take time for ovulation to resume and for cycles to regulate post miscarriage which is frustrating. Think I am ovulating now but cycles still irregular. Hopefully you won't have long to wait till bfp

BuzzieBo · 30/04/2023 13:02

Can I join? First cycle trying to conceive after a MC. Using the Flo app to track which says I should be 9 days post ovulation. Although I'm not convinced I did ovulate 🤔 I've got very mild tummy cramps but that's it.
Fingers crossed for all of you!

tulipsunday · 30/04/2023 12:52

Going to wait till Tues which is 11dpo. Tiredness is hopefully a good sign I have felt pretty tired too. I haven't tracked temperature before. Wasn't sure if it would be another thing for me to 'obsess' over but can see why it might be helpful to see if ovulation has occurred. Do look at my resting heart rate though on Fitbit and just the same so far..

LolaStanley1 · 30/04/2023 11:46

Do you think you’ll test at 10DPO then? Do you normally get an implantation dip? That’s what I’m gonna try look out for? I’ve woken up absolutely exhausted! I’ve had to have a nap already. Never been so tired!

OP posts:
tulipsunday · 29/04/2023 14:43

I tend to use First response early response and when I have been pregnant have had positives from around 10dpo as they are very sensitive though depends when implantation happen - can be later for some.

@Toddy21 nightmare when they are ill hope your little one is better. If you can just enjoy sex without the stress of TTC that is definitely the best way.

@LolaStanley1 I do symptom spot but know after being pregnant a few times that I can't call it as always crampy with tender boobs no matter what the outcome (thank you progesterone 😂). Last cycle was bit confusing as I was sure I had implantation bleeding but then turned out to not be pregnant so can't help examining when I go to the toilet!

Same! I’m trying not to get caught up in symptom spotting either… what’s the earliest you can test?

Aw I hope you have a lovely time. We haven’t normally actively tried but about 2/3 months I started ovulation testing but I don’t tell my partner if i have a surge because I think he would start stressing and it would get in his head (his words). I don’t know if it’s all in my head as I’m sure I have felt this way before but I weirdly feel like this might be the month. First time I’ve had a surge, had a 3 temp rises to confirm ovulation. DTD within 2/3 days so perhaps if shettles theory is correct I’ll have a little girl.. and I just keep having like period type cramps and a lot of back pain! Anybody else symptom spotting?

Hi sorry super busy day packing and pampering then just to top it of a toddler who has been constantly sick since I collected him from nursery 😩 I’m trying not tho even think about testing at all until if my AF is late. We have never actively tried to get pregnant before and it’s always just happened, it’s always been a case where my husband has said you are super stressing are you pregnant or he’s said last time there hasn’t been a week off this month haha and I hadn’t even realised so I’m hoping that it might happen if I relax and let him do his magic on me.
