Dpo 1, tww keep sane

@Tes004 sorry lovely I read that wrong too, so sorry you went through a chemical. There's still lots of time left this month though, keeping everything crossed for you xx

@MrsP20202 yes I initially thought chemical but I had bloods drawn and was under 1 so I’m not convinced - maybe a false positive as I did do tests every single day and it was the only positive I had ,,, strange but such a heartache as I actually felt pregnant - nothing to report so far -
still look at the strip in every direction and every light just to see a tiny bit of hope 😂😂 honestly I am ridiculous- I know I still have a week or so where I can get bfn so why on earth do we put ourselves through it all ,,,, so wish I could stop the mind for a bit - I think if I don’t conceive this month I will stop. Me and oh are not on the younger side and I do have children - so I feel blessed that I got to experience it x

@Tes004 oh sorry just read that again (just got in from shopping) that was a deffo positive from last month hun I do honestly love the cheapie tests keep us updated, if it was a chemical last month your double your chances this month so they say xxx when are you planning to test this month? :)

@rosecbrm stay positive hun not over till at shows ! All good signs so far

@Tes004 omg thats deffo a positive !!! Congratulations, I love the cheap tests they have never been wrong with me ! So excited for you 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

@Tes004 I know that's what I'm thinking too!

I can defo see something on the second pic, sending lots of baby dust xx

@Scarletthoping sounds all promising!!! Iv only just gone and bought some 😂 I will test in the morning see if anything comes up 🤞🏽 I no it’s early but I’m just too excited I’ll keep everyone updated (even tho I no it’s going to be a bfn this early😂)

Not the first pic - that was one from Google I think - I was trying to compare and accidentally uploaded it fgs !! Fat fingers

@rosecbrm that would be an amazing wedding gift to let him see a positive 😍
I done ANOTHER cheap test this morning - told myself it’s fine cus they only £3.50 for 3 and annoyed with the white space - 🙄 8dpo or 7 depends on exactly when the egg popped !!
but then I don’t know if I would believe a cheap test anyway - this was mine from last month

@MrsP20202 that sounds like a plan! I'm going to try and wait until after the wedding but we'll see 🫣

Weirdly, I've just come to my parents and suddenly have got a bit worse cramps and feel slightly sick, although again I think again it might just be in my head!

I’m 8DPO today I think. Yesterday I had cramping a bit like period pain. I got a bad headache in the evening. I also felt so tired but had a bad nights sleep and kept waking up. Boobs a little sore this morning.

I kind of feel like this could all be normal hormonal stuff pre period but I wouldn’t normally have cramping… hoping it was implantation pain? And headache and insomnia and boob pain all part of that. Eeek.

My partner and I decided not to test until 15DPO. He wants to be there. I don’t have any tests in the house so think I should manage it. Although obviously it’s going to kill me!

@rosecbrm exact same with me ! My cramps have gone round to my back and hips just a slight pressure in my belly now

oh don’t I know if I go buy a test today i will end up testing just to see if anything’s there! If it’s a bfn I’ll test on my period day (well if I can hold out) 😂 I would suggest holding out as long as possible it gets quite expensive and addictive 😂 I’m just very weak when it comes to poas

@MrsP20202 ahh okay we're at a similar point then!

Oh my gosh I know, I really thought I would be relaxed but I am just constantly looking for something which I'm not sure is even there haha!

Yes they are mild! Today it seems like more of a dull ache going round into my back rather than cramps. How about you?

When are you planning on testing?

@rosecbrm i am 8dpo today but I am going by the Flo app as since having my son my periods have never returned to normal and range between 28 to 34 days some months even 40! So by that app I’m 8dpo. The problem with us girls when we want something this badly we symptom spot and get extremely upset if af arrives ! I’m trying not to put pressure on it this month but it’s so hard to do! I feel like I’m constantly about to start my period I just hope she doesn’t show! How are your cramps are they quite mild?

Thank you so much

Ahhh they all sound like really positive symptoms though! I've had really similar, minus the spotting.
How many dpo are you?

Ahh bless you, hopefully you manage to get a few more hours sleep in the next few days! Sending lots of baby dust xx

@rosecbrm first of all CONGRATULATIONS on your wedding to come ! The tww is absolutely painful I’m terrible at symptom spotting every twinge ever cramp every sore nipple I’m putting it down to maybe this is it haha! My symptoms so far have been heartburn, pressure in lower belly sorry for tmi but like I need to fart but if I do fart the pressure is still there! Cramps since ovulation day, now I don’t know if my tingling nipples are in my head because I want them to tingle if that makes sense 😂 and I also had this tiny blood spit when I wiped last night and now nothing so I’m praying it’s implantation bleeding not due on for another week and I never have bleeding before I’m supposed to start! I’m extremely tired but I don’t know if that down to not sleeping well due to having a 3 year old and a 1 year old who’s teething badly at night. I’m trying not to give in the testing yet but I might just pop to the shops without hubby knowing to get a early detection test and do one tomorrow 🤫 he will kill me if he found out as he wants me to wait until next week I just can’t it’s driving me crazy!!

Hey ladies, hoping to join..

I am currently 7/8dpo cycle 1 baby 1, and I feel like I'm already going crazy symptom spotting! I thought I would be quite calm and relaxed about this, but apparently not! We were quite relaxed this month in terms of OPK testing etc, but I have done testing in the past just to get an insight of what my cycle is like and I usually ovulate around CD15, in which I defo had cramps this day. We DTD on cycle day 11 & 15 so hoping theres some kind of chance, but with it being our first month it's probably unlikely!

I've also been grabbing my boobs every now and then to see if they hurt.. I had pretty sore nipples yesterday but they don't seem as bad today! Also been having on/off cramps in the pelvic area and a dull ache in my lower back, but I'm not sure if I'm convincing myself they are there or if they actually are lol! Also been feeling really thirsty yesterday and today, and had to get up for a wee a few times in the night.

I'm getting married in a few days and want to hold off testing until after, but it is proving difficult haha!

Lots of baby dust to all! X

@Maybebaby12345 oh wow your house must be mad I’d love to have 5 kids! I love kids running round the house haha! With my first she’s 3 I had every symptom going but with my son who’s 1 I didn’t even know I was pregnant I only had heartburn just put it down to putting on a bit of weight then bam positive pregnancy test! This month iv had bad cramps since ovulation bad heartburn where I can’t sleep and last night (I will attach a photo I previously posted this morning) in what I think is implantation bleeding as it was just a spot of blood when wiping since last night cervix is high soft and closed! No more bleeding and still cramping. Oh I hate the tww I hope we get all our positives!

Hi @MrsP20202 I'm month 2 tcc #5!! I'm hoping I get no symptoms!!!! I had no real symptoms with each of mine until at least 6 weeks. But I get back ache and sore boobs etc in the week leading up to AF, so the less symptoms the better for me!!

Hi girls ! 8dpo for me also! This tww is horrendous isn’t it! Symptom spotting all the time ! How is everyone, I’m trying to conceive 3rd baby first month trying so hopefully it will be good news for us all! Is anyone experiencing heart burn? I only got heartburn with my other two and never get it just randomly I no I’m symptom spotting but I just can’t help it !

Morning all, and welcome to those whose just joined.
8dpo for me and still nothing to report other than I normally start PMSing about now and so far, nothing. I really hope that's a good sign! Took another test and of course bfn.

I'm a little behind the rest of you and not read every posting, but can I join anyway please?

I'm only 2 days dpo and the wait is driving me a little cookoo

I start progesterone pesseries twice daily from next Wednesday, which will be 6 days dpo

Anyone else doing this treatment?

If I test negative after a week then it's stop and try again next month otherwise the dosage increases and is stopped if I get as far as 16 weeks (2x MMCs and 1 chemical in the last year)

Anyone having their big 40th birthday before any potential due date?

@HelloMoon87 you’re right that said I had nothing with my first until AFTER I found out !!
but I do like to think our bodies just know 🤭

I'm 5DPO too, can I join!?
