Anyone want to give each other support? TTC November 2023 TWW

Ohhh the urge to test is super real! 🙈 definitely holding off, I've woke up with some stabby pains down there to the left, so I don't know hopefully means something 🤷‍♀️ other than that (if it is a symptom) I've nothing going on, although when pregnant before I've not really had symptoms as such, when I surpassed 5 weeks with the blighted ovum I remember feeling sick when I ate but that was it

@ButterflySkies Hey! Of course you can jump on, you are welcome here 😁🥰 come be in our Wednesday club, if you can hold out! You could be due AF around the same time the ladies above are! So hopefully you might see something when testing tomorrow! What brands do you use? I'm keeping everything totally crossed for you!

In the meantime I'm back at work today, which I'm thankful for as it keeps my mind busy, yesterday we wrapped DD Christmas presents, very organised this year for some unknown reason.. I'll be going away on the 25th to visit family for a week & it's a full packed week, by which time I'll hopefully know either way..
What's everyone's december/Christmas plans? I'm such a child at heart 🤣🤣🎄🎅

Excuse the awful user name! This is my first time posting and everything is gone..!

Can I jump on and wait with you? I’m trying for baby 2 - it’s harder than my 3 year old, we got lucky first time then! Feeling a bit of angst this month as there’s no chance in my next window, we’re away for two weeks over it and due to be sharing a room with my toddler…

Not sure how many DPO but AF is due around the weekend… I’m not like clockwork so anytime Friday-Monday. The urge to test is real (I was wfh and so caved today and obviously a BFN). I’ll try not to again until at least you all have on Weds :) x

@H938 Aww maybe then, God these tests! Drive you mad!!! 🙈 it will be great if you can hold out, more of a guarantee on the result being clear but all the same I'll be here testing early because I've no will power 🤣🤣

@rainyskylight I'm sorry to hear AF came this month, and early of course when you don't want it to! Just to make it worse 🙄
As said above, hopefully you can track & TTC for December... A lovely Christmas gift 💖
I'm taking seven seas vitamins, so far fallen every time we've tried.. Just need a sticky ❤️ oh I hope we all get our good news soon, I never for a minute thought it would be so difficult..I knew very little about loss or miscarriage, but now I've had the experience, it's just horrific
Big loves 💖

@rainyskylight Ahh im sorry to hear that, its really draining and hard not to get constantly caught up in it, it takes over. I know its easier said than done but maybe see this as a fresh start, you can track from now and hopefully two weeks from now you will be ovulating again and can try for a December BFP ♥️ are you taking any vitamins? I previously took seven seas trying to concieve tablets with my second and they have really good reviews x

Hello - please may I join? I'm 35, have one DD who turned 3 only yesterday. I've been pregnant twice before and they were both within 6 weeks of trying. First with DD, the second ended in a MMC this summer. Been TTC for 3 months since then and have been getting super down that it's not been so quick.

I got super excited last month that I had a BFP but then I took the test out of the bin the day later and realised it was a faint positive on an ovulation test, not on a pregnancy one... And then yesterday I started to feel encouraged by what definitely seemed like it should be implantation spotting, but actually it's my period five days early. I'm never early!!!! So rubbish.

Anyway I hope everyone is doing ok xxx

I thought evaps were when it shows after the time frame? Maybe do a digital?Its just so dissapointing getting negatives isnt it and I think what will be will be so may aswell just see what happens. If i can wait it out🫣

Ahh yeah I was thinking clearblue but now I'm worried about evaps!!
If you can wait until then you are a star! I mean I know that any nurse, Dr etc would tell you it's so much better to wait! I so wish I was able to wait I've no idea how I did it last time x

I think theyre all the same! If youre pregnant it shows on anything. I dont think they sell first response in boots/superdrug anymore do they? I would go with clear blue though probably. Im actually thinking I might just wait it out til sat and see if I come on, its fustrating and it completely takes over doesnt it and I dont even know why im testing so early, i could have not even reached implantation yet 😂

Me again!
Just want to ask which tests you are going to use? Red/blue dyes? I've got easy at home & wondflo.. Which are both red dyes.. x

I had a strong cold last week myself! Wednesday it is. Fingers crossed for us all

🤣🤣 Wednesday club it is 🤞🤞 x

@Outliers lets all test on Wednesday and hope for the best 🤞🏼🤞🏼 I also am so thirsty especially at night but I do have a cold - its either baby or illness for me lol

I think this early there's no point testing but if you do it's best to do with first wee due to low hcg levels. I'm going to try and hold out until Wednesday morning.

The discharge and tender boobs I don't typically have tbh, and I usually struggle to drink enough water. Everything else is difficult to say if I'm honest,because I don't think I would have paid attention to those sensations if I wasn't TTC.

Possibly TMI I usually notice a small change in vaginal odour few days before period and I don't have that yet

@Outliers are you going to test
today?

Its true all the symptoms are the same and thats why theres so many cases of thinking you are pregnant when youre not but do you usually have symtoms like that after ovulation or before your period?

Thank you and haven't used those tests before but this does look like a faint positive to me.

I bought tesco tests to use later this week, but just read the reviews and they're terrible

I think hold out on the digital until you know your levels should be high enough to come up. With my second i got a positive 9 days after having sex which i think its quite early and looking back at the pics they were very faint!! I also had a chemical and a misscarriage at 10 weeks pervious to that pregnancy so I was probably soo keen on symptoms and testing, thats what makes me think I am
now as i had all the same shmptoms! Then i done a digital 2 days after that- and got Pregnant 1-2 weeks thats why im thinking hold out til atleast Wednesday. Hope you get your positive! This is my first month trying though so I think i would be very very lucky if I did. X

@Outliers Oh you are doing so well not to test, much better than me 🤣🙈
I've done both & unfortunately ended up in loses, even when I did wait until I missed my period 😞
I got advised by a nurse at the EPU not to test until 2 weeks after my missed period, but there's just 0 chance of me doing that!
Hope you get a positive result when you do test!🤞

Ps this is the last test I took which I'm pretty sure is an evap 🙈

My period is due on Friday and I'm struggling not to test. I've done some research and it's possible that all my symptoms are normal cycle notions provoked by high progesterone.

10DPO.

Apparently embryo can implants between 6-12days after ovulation - which is why early testing is pointless (https://www.netmums.com/pregnancy/9dpo-pregnancy-symptoms-and-testing-at-nine-days-post-ovulation).

🙈🙈 I took one more, of the same test. But I'm pretty sure it's an evap.. That was yesterday, sometimes i just don't know what tests to take, there's alot of conflicting on whether red or blue dye is better! I'm so bloody impatient & my partner has bought me a digital, I'm sat here like do I use it do I not 🙈🤣 I'm going to wait until Wednesday thought & take an easy at home, which are hidden away from me because I'd take one every hour..
That sounds promising 🤞! Hopefully a BFP on Wednesday or something more than it being faint.. I never thought for a minute I'd have so much trouble conceiving after my first being so straight forward!
Arghhh 🙈 x

Im going to wait untill wednesday. Im not even sure how many dpo I am now, my app says 9 but who knows! Usually I can feel myself ovulating on the right side and its wuite painful, this month its all been on the left side. So my app says test on 18th but thats agessss I wont be able to
wait that long 😂. Have you tested again since the first one. X

When are you re testing? As I'll wait with you 🙈🤣 according to flo app I'm still 8 days from started my period.. I was stupidly using premom too which gave me really different dates! X

I know its so hard not to test and easier said than done haha! Im going to wait until wednesday too and try again. Im still 6 days before my period so its so early to test. X

@H938 Oh I'm so glad someone can see it🤣 I swear I've got constant line eyes..
I'm going to 'try' giving it a couple of days.. much easier said that done when your a mental over tester 🙈
Also I've just seen your test! It definitely looks positive 🤞🤞 for you!!! 💖

Deffo a line there. I read that your levels double every 72 hours so if you can hold out a few days you should have a clear line. 🤞🏼

Hey!

Wondered if it would be ok to jump on?
I'm currently 6 or 7 dpo.. unsure what day I exactly ovulated.. I've unfortunately had a blighted ovum back in May/June & 2 chemicals since. I have a DD earth side who is 6!
I gave myself a bit of a break from TTC but I thought why not try again..
So far I've been trying not to test, as I waited until the day after I missed my period last pregnancy & it ended in a chemical
I've seen very faint lines.. I'm actually not even sure they are there but on the camera you can't see them 🤦‍♀️ trying to sit on my hands!!

Ps hoping for babies all round 💖
