Hello!

TTC #2, 36 yo. I should be dpo 1 today, I could feel ovulation yesterday evening, had peak opk yesterday morning.

I will try to test only on day when AF due, so next Sunday, as I've had 2 chemicals so unfortunately not expecting magic.

Morning everyone! Turns out I didn't ovulate last week as I had a static smiley last night and a 0.98 strip today. So we're starting the TWW all over again. It's a bit frustrating but I'm just happy to have found a peak after three months :)

So 7dpo today. Definitely having some sort of insomnia at the mo, not sure if that’s causing my headaches. Still very gassy, irritable and my sex drive has decreased/very dry down there. 🤔

missmae · 10/07/2023 09:12

Good morning ladies! @Tes004 of course I did, though I knew it would be negative but I had to join in as I have loads of cheapies so 🤣 but yours id say looks a tad darker, did that line come up within the time frame? How many tests do you have and are they all clear blue? Lucky you! I’m not working until the weekend now. I might have to just pick up some shifts to keep me distracted lol ! X

9dpo here and used my 20mui test which was stark white. I was scared to use the 10mui one because I feel like if that's stark white, chances are in out. Stupid I know. I have lower back pain and bloating just like when AF is coming. Shes due this Sunday so I'm not going to test again until Friday or sat if she doesn't show up.

@cosymama2020 everyone is different ! But I think boobs and cramps can be most common…
some people have “itchy toe” I might be pregnant “nose bleed” ive heard it all over the months 😅

no one size fits all however I wish I just was one of those mamas who “just knew” 🥲

cosymama2020 · 10/07/2023 08:58

@longingtobe23 @HelloMoon87 thank you for the welcome!

What are the usual symptoms for TWW? Apart from driving ourselves mad 😂 I’ve always thought sore boobs and tiredness but reading in here it seems some ladies get implant ration cramps/aches?

I’ve got a long 7 days ahead of me - 3DPO today and promised myself I won’t test until at least 10!

Tes004 · 10/07/2023 08:47

@missmae did you give in and test ? I’m loving this thread - saves looking at loads of different old ones - so glad I’m at work today to be distracted- but only prob is I’m doing massages and facials and then my mind wonders lol x

longingtobe23 · 10/07/2023 08:26

@Tes004 oooo so tough to tell I had a nasty old Evap Ona CB but it wasn’t that style test … however as you say, test again and you’ll get your answer

in now worried my cramps are a bad sign I am in real pain with them feels like sodding contractions I thought they were meant to be smaller 😖

Tes004 · 10/07/2023 08:16

@bookworm100 still so early - even at 12dpo I still think we are too early to test -
I had a static smile last Saturday so it makes me 8-9dpo I guess - I have also ordered frer but didn’t realise the delivery is going to be Friday or Saturday this week ‘ so annoying- I do have 1 cheap test and one clear blue one left but I refuse to pay more now lol ! Should took shares in hpt comps ! Xx

rosecbrm · 10/07/2023 08:14

Morning all, hope everyone is feeling okay!

@Tes004 I am new to all of this so I'm unsure on evaps indents etc, but that just looks positive to me?
Although if it was out of the time frame then maybe it is worth testing again later?

Currently 8/9 dpo and I caved and did a easy at home cheapie test this morning and I'm sure I could see the faintest (like really had to look for it faint 😅) line, but I'm not sure if it's my eyes playing tricks as it really was barely noticeable, so I'm taking that as a BFN.

I almost want to hold out now for a few days but I feel like that's going to be hard now!

Symptom wise my boobs are feeling slightly tender, and I had cramps and nausea yesterday but that seems to have eased, although I still have a dull ache in my back and feel very bloated!

Sending lots of baby dust to all this week, have a great Monday! X

Tes004 · 10/07/2023 07:49

Good morning ladies ! It was out of the time scale so I’m trying to plan baby names 😂
but I did move to cb as thought didn’t do this so much but when I look on Google AGAIN you still see evaps - I should have simply thrown the test properly. I the natural light it looked much better ,,,
I will retest Wednesday before I head away ! 2 more sleeps ,,,

longingtobe23 · 10/07/2023 07:32

@bookworm100 sometimes okay to just do it then carry on with the day haha but as you say, always every chance in the coming week
i just did my 9dpo and nothing to report - still got tenderness and pulling in my lower belly and ovaries 🤞🏻

just holding onto the next two days and usually if negative I wait it out until Aunt Flo then

good luck others testing today

bookworm100 · 10/07/2023 05:28

Up bright and early to test at 7DPO and of course it was negative! I wish I could say I knew better and would wait a few days but I suspect I'll be testing tomorrow and every day until I'm out! Good luck any one else who's testing today!

missmae · 09/07/2023 23:34

I have a slight headache this evening, gassy still… cramps have kind of gone now. 7dpo tomorrow and I think I might give in and start testing too 💀🤣I feel left out not peeing on sticks

pm24 · 09/07/2023 23:25

@Tes004 oooo I see something! How exciting! Let us know how you get on!

BlossomTree123 · 09/07/2023 23:20

@HelloMoon87 thank you! I will give the others ago if I’m unsuccessful this cycle. Only 5 dpo. Never this this when trying for my first, happened straight away.

i have been checking the lines with the clear blue to not just trust the digital face. Definitely had 2/3 spikes weird!!

longingtobe23 · 09/07/2023 23:15

I’m still getting low low cramps so just praying it’s implantation pains - however I had these very badly with my son and it lasted ages. Not touching the sides as much as that

but still something is stirring 🍀🥲 pleeeading with myself it’s a sign ✨

HelloMoon87 · 09/07/2023 23:13

@BlossomTree123 welcome! I find clearblue can have these oscillations so use easy@home to double check the darkness. Also stress can sometimes mean body tries to ovulate few times.

@MrsP20202 wow you're my hero. How are you doing with 3 and 1 year old? I'm struggling with my 2 year old tantrums. But I guess that's how old they would be if I was pregnant now ..

HelloMoon87 · 09/07/2023 23:07

Welcome @cosymama2020 how old is your first? Dpo 1 is when I created this thread, feel free to symptom spot anytime, we are all doing it 😁

@Tes004 I see a shadow, eek exciting

HelloMoon87 · 09/07/2023 23:06

I hope for many bfps in this thread.

So after my leaky boob moment, I've had ovulation type of cramp all evening... Something must be happening but I don't want to keep my hopes up too much in case of disappointment of bfn or even worse, a chemical

BlossomTree123 · 09/07/2023 23:04

@bookworm100 keep us updated!! Love to know earliest result if positive! Fingers crossed!

bookworm100 · 09/07/2023 22:43

@pinkandredflowers - I'm 7DPO tomorrow too! Will also be testing from tomorrow too even though I know it's highly unlikely Grin

missmae · 09/07/2023 22:28

@Tes004 can definitely see a shadow there…👀Will you be testing again tomorrow?

pinkandredflowers · 09/07/2023 22:24

@Tes004 I can defo see a line. Did that come up within 10 mins or only after you'd binned it? How many DPO are you? It defo looks promising xx

I love how active this thread is, everytime I open Mumsnet there is loads to read. So sorry if I'm missing interesting updates!

How many DPO is the earliest you guys have got real positives? I think I was 10 with my daughter.

7 tomorrow so as much as I'd love to not test till the weekend I'm pretty sure I will keep testing from now on !!

Tes004 · 09/07/2023 22:00

Hubby see test on bin and says he can see a line - I can kind of see a hint of something but explained that I done it this afternoon so shouldn’t read it -

thoughts ?? And yes I’m now the mad one in the group- shadow seems darker in person
