Dpo 1, tww keep sane

@pinkandredflowers my sis used to say drink til it’s pink 🤣 she’s had 3 healthy pregnancies but I’m talking 1-3 wines in that 2 week period. So I guess nothing to write home about 💗
1 won’t hurt if you want it!

@pm24 i am 7 DPO today - tested because I’m weak lol keep going on the symptoms because you never know, it is hard I just try to jot them down Incase “the is is the month”

I have had some tugs and pulls but mostly KEEP doing stupid things; burnt my hand on the hot tap, over cooked egg and it exploded, dropped a tub of double cream, forgetting things, dropping things …
i mean, not sure if this is a symptom to spot but there ya go!!

@pm24 lmao I have also been groping my breasts today hoping to feel pain but nope! Lol. Good to know it’s not just me having weird sleeping patterns though! Don’t feel so deflated just yet it’s still very early for anything, it may only just be starting to implant! I understand though. The 2WW is dreadful.

I’ve noticed a decrease in my appetite today… seeing as the last 5 days I’ve been eating any and everything in sight today I’m not so bothered🤔 I’m clutching at anything at the mo!

6DPO - Feels like I don't have much symptoms today. Lower abdomen doesn't ache as much as previously nor does the lower back pain.

My boobs aren't feeling any fuller and that pain I keep looking out for isn't there! Anyone else keep groping their own boobs to see if it hurts or is that just me? Lol

I've had weird sleep patterns too. I keep waking up early too despite sleeping late. And I just woke up from a 2 hour nap!

I also had a dream last night that I missed the mark on ovulation day and didn't get pregnant which is a stark contrast from dreams I've heard people have when they are meant to get a BFP. I've also been reading that just because my progesterone is high doesn't mean that I'm guaranteed to have conceived as so many have said they had bfn after their day 21 progesterone test was high.

Urghhh just feeling deflated as all signs seems to pointing in the wrong direction but can't help holding onto a little hope that it might be different for me.

Hope you ladies are having a better day/weekend. Those that have tested, I don't blame you, I nearly did the same but had to stop myself as I just know it's way too early! Also I think it's ok to have maybe a drink or two during TWW, I've heard people getting pregnant and not actually stop drinking until they got a positive test, but obviously each body and tolerance is different xxx

Headache from hell today - rested in cheap strip which of course bfn only 7dpo or 6
as always I think I can see a line but then remind myself of my false bfp last month so until it’s a clear line I will read as bfn -
my son is having a party this evening so have been sorting the garden out - but currently laying on my bed with a fan blasting over me - I feel unwell today like I’m coming down with something - would have a drink if I didn’t have what feel like a hangover already 😉 x

@pinkandredflowers i don’t think drinking during the 2WW does much, when I caught in December I drank for Christmas and new years (tho new years I was completely off it and got my positive a few days later). I tried having a drink last night and I couldn’t and wasn’t feeling it, ordered pizza instead! so I’m staying off it.

@HelloMoon87 nothing different here other than resting😂

I am 5dpo today. Is anyone else having sleep changes? I keep waking up really early, considering I sleep fairly late. Midnight/1ish. Today was 6:30 for me and I never wake up early without alarms. Did the same yesterday and the day before.

The pact is a very good idea but I don't know if I'll be able to hold out. I'm only 5dpo and just had to talk myself out of testing already this morning 😂

I would really like to wait until the weekend but I'm fairly sure I won't make it past Weds

What do you all do about drinking during the 2WW? I have a work event on weds, maybe I'll just hold a glass of wine haha

Morning!
@Maybebaby12345 sounds very familiar that dance! 🤣
iv had the worst migraine all night and I generally get them before my period. I think I’m due on Sunday/ Monday as cycles normally Average 33/34 days and it’s 33 today.

7dpo and couldn't resist testing and of course another bfn. But this month I purposely only have 20mui tests so that I wouldn't test so early. I'm shocked at how little self restraint I have as I'm so level headed normally!!!

@pm24 I have what I call the early testing dance, which I do every month and involves squinting, holding it up in the light, taking photos, laying it on a white sheet of paper. It's so ridiculous but yet I do it every month!!!

@Maybebaby12345 don't worry, I don't think I would have lasted either. I always put the xray filter on to triple check that I haven't missed a faint line! After a while I think my brain just makes one up!

@JLN88 it's not over till AF arrives so have everything crossed for you!

@Tes004 ooo that could be IB if it didn't last very long. Hopefully your OH has hit the mark this time! It really is exhausting, even after I symptom check on google, I'll check in other forums. Sometimes I wish there was something that could make you forget in this TWW!

I have everything crossed for you all!! xxx

@pm24 at least you know you ovulated.
fingers crossed we can all light up this chat with some bfp pics ! I’m only 5-6dpo so won’t test although I want to even though I know I’d see a bfn !! Madness -
mum starting to think maybe I shoulda dtd more after static smiley - I had brown spotting all completely stopped and was only when I wiped a couple of times - can ov bleed be that late - I know poss ib but then also know I’ve seen it before in a previous cycle -
arhhhhhhh not even a week in and I’m exhausted with thinking too much x

I tested about an hour ago and it was negative. 10 dpo and it wasn’t an early response that I got which is annoying. Got headache today though and that generally happens before getting my period.

I'm only 6dpo and I tested so ive broken it already 🤦‍♀️ of course it was negative and of course I swear I see a hint of a line and of course I don't actually 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

We should ALL* make a pact...

@pinkandredflowers well I just got the results back for my day 21 progesterone test and it's 52nmol which means I ovulated! Not feeling any symptoms other than a dull ache in lower abdomen, very similar to PMS cramps. Don't want to test as I'm only 4/5dpo but also I think I'm scared to test end of!! My last pregnancy which ended in a MC I tested at 12dpo but I also had more prominent symptoms!

I would say we should make a pact and not test until 10-12dpo but I equally know just how easy it will be to break it! Ha ha

@pinkandredflowers yes it was for my last pregnancy so 🥹 I’m going to wait until maybe 10dpo and see 😭

I'm also 4dpo and already itching to test!! How long are people waiting?

@missmae ooh I've heard that is a positive sign toward pregnancy! Good luck

Morning ladies. So 4dpo today, left nostril is blocked and I’m kind of stuffy like a cold. I don’t want to get my hopes up but this happened at 5dpo for me last time when I was pregnant 🥺

@HelloMoon87 yeah going to test either today or tomorrow. Ordered a pack of tests from Amazon that will be delivered today but I’m not sure if to wait till fmu tomorrow morning. When is best time to test? Maybe just hold my pee for a couple hours today when it’s arrived.

@Tes004 this house is suited for me then 😂. Yeah I was wondering if what I was feeling was ov pains but I know i definitely ovulated Monday 🤔. But same I need to try and keep busy 😫. My sister has just found out she is pregnant 2 days ago! Would be awesome if we were at the same time 🥹.

@JLN88 yep literally. Sat googling the same stuff I Google every time. I feel like I have a PhD in TTC 😂.

Still got faint cramps at the mo. Pretty sure I’m 10 dpo tomorrow

@missmae it’s a vicious circle TTC. Always tell myself not to think about it and go about my days as normal but it never happens.
