@hopefulsquirrel hi, I was just thinking about you and wanted to check how you are? I hope things are going well x

2dpo today and I’m still very chill. Hopefully it stays that way throughout the tww and I don’t symptom spot too much.

@inthewest what brans did you use? I have the one step cheapies and they did great. Only thing I don’t like is the test line always being ombre but it still gives me great results.

I was using the cheap ones and didn't feel like they were giving me much! Swapped to clear blue and easy @ home and was able to actually see my peak. (I peaked on Saturday and the cheap ones didn't show much but the others did).

Cheap ones didn't even find the peak when i ovulated and conceived in December. Sadly we lost it at 13 weeks, but it made me a bit unsure of how well they actually worked for me.

@emmatcc1 thanks for the advice, will try to do that

our situation is a bit different in that I have 2 DC from a previous relationship and we’re a bit older at 38 & 41 so trying to treat it as “it would be nice if it happened”

my attitude will change during the TWW though 😂

@VitaminSea77 Every other day would be the best approach to not miss ovulation. I’m way too anxious to not track ovulation.

OP posts:
VitaminSea77 · 12/06/2023 10:38

I’m really confused now about when I might ovulate because my period was so late last cycle 🤦🏻‍♀️

one app says I won’t ovulate until 20th, another says fertile window will start 16th and another from tomorrow!

I’ve not been using any official way to track as I wanted to be relaxed about it all. Think we might need to just DTD as much as poss and hope for the best 🫠

Ladyinpink1 · 10/06/2023 21:10

Yes I temp and use opks but I just get cheap bulk ones so not sure about different readings. That's great if your going to ovulate soon 👍🏻

emmatcc1 · 10/06/2023 15:41

@Ladyinpink1 Do you do opks? I just got a higher reading which means I maybe just missed my peak or I’m gonna get it later today so if ovulation will most likely be Monday morning.

Ladyinpink1 · 09/06/2023 20:23

Exactly! @emmatcc1 I tested super early last cycle and drove myself mad, this time i'm really hoping to hold out as long as possible. But again, we will see lol

@Ladyinpink1 Same here, I’m pretty chilled right now but I know that’s gonna change the second I enter another tww.

Ladyinpink1 · 09/06/2023 14:39

Hello again! 😊 @emmatcc1 Yes I am cd11 today, normally I ovulate between cd12 and 14 so anytime this weekend or Mon as well.

I want to "try" to be a little more chilled this cycle. Well that's the plan anyway lol

Hi everyone!
Where are you in your cycles? Is anyone due to ovulate this weekend. I’m pretty sure mine is on Sunday/Monday.

AF finally came today 6 days late. Stupidly told DP who had got himself excited. Onwards and upwards towards a potential March baby 🌸

congratulations to those who have had bfp ❤️

Ladyinpink1 · 02/06/2023 22:29

Congratulations to all who got bfp's, wishing you all the best 💜

I am cd4 now so will be due to ovulate next weekend 🙂 Hope to speak to you all soon for another (and hopefully our very last) 2ww. (How lovely would a March baby be 🥰) Have a lovely weekend ladies xo

emmatcc1 · 02/06/2023 16:09

Congratulations to all the positives!
I’m taking a break for a couple of days until I start opks which will be on Wednesday so not long until I’m in my fertile week again.

Wishing you all the luck for your next cycle ❤️

Doing ok, I've just taken a clear blue digital which says 2-3 so I'm hopeful but I'm also getting hellish cramping which spins my head right back again!

Congratulations on your BFP 😊

AF has just arrived for me - with extra painful stomach cramps just to rub salt in the wound!
Thanks for helping me get through the TTW - maybe talk to some of you next month. Congrats to all the positives and wishing you the best 🙂

I'm so sorry @BuBuzzieBo - I hope the cramps subside.

Hello, is it okay if I join? I know im a little late to the party but I'm driving myself mad!

I'm on 10dpo of an approx 26day cycle, so AF is about 4 or 5 days away.

So far today I have had a little spotting this morning in sticky CM, and belly cramps since yesterday, more so on the right hand side.
Also a bit of nausea but that might be because I eat so much this close to my period due to hormonal hunger. Oh and extremely tired.

I am so bad at symptom spotting and extremely impatient. Im starting to get annoyed now as everything is so similar to AF. Been testing since 6DPO all BFN as expected.

Fingers crossed the BFP comes along :D🤞🏼

Angelselevenx · 02/06/2023 11:55

@Hrps how're you doing? X

BuzzieBo · 02/06/2023 11:30

@VitaminSea77 I think I ovulated late this cycle, and I'm assuming ovulating late means your period/positive test would also be late? 🤷‍♀️ that's what I'm telling myself anyway.
Trying to stay relaxed about it, but this very long TTW is turning into a very long three week wait!!

VitaminSea77 · 02/06/2023 11:00

BuzzieBo · 02/06/2023 08:12

AF is two days late and showing no signs of coming...but I got a BFN!
Is there still hope I could be pregnant or it is probably another reason she's late?

I’ve got a similar situation here. 4 days late now. Did a test on Wednesday which was negative but haven’t been able to get out to get another one.

getting a few cramps and every time I go to the bathroom I’m convinced AF will be there but nothing! 🤦🏻‍♀️
