3dpo - who wants to join the waiting game with me?

@ThelastRolo20 hey! Nice to see you here. I think I'm going to take a leaf out of your book and not rest until AF is due too.

I had my work Christmas lunch yesterday and definitely had one too many wines. I rarely drink now so feeling a bit annoyed at myself and guilty that I have during the TWW but also kind of feel like I can't pause my whole life indefinitely? Can anyone make me feel better and say they all have had a drink in the TWW 😅

@Potatogirlpie best of luck for tomorrow. 10DPO is still relatively early to test! I only had a whisper of a line at that point last time x

@Potatogirlpie I’m sorry you think you’re out! Fingers crossed for a miracle and you get your BFP!

I'm 4DPO and going insane symptom spotting! This is our 8th cycle trying. We had a miscarriage 2 years ago and had to put trying on hold until this year again so we're now on cycle 8 this year of trying. Really hoping for a positive for Xmas.

@miamiamia869 Absolutely! Fingers crossed for you 🤞

@romdowa welcome! Thats amazing! Fingers crossed for this time! 🤞

@MrsAnonymous24 really. They do say you are more fertile the 3 months following. The lady at the epu said this also. So fingers crossed.
@ThelastRolo20 yeah it does happen far too often. Something you don't realise so many people go through until it happens to you. Fingers crossed we get our lil 🌈

I'd love to join . We are ttc number 2. Number 1 we dtd then forgot about it because we didn't believe it would happen that quick and I was 6 days late before I even realised 🤣
Obviously this time round we are properly trying. So I'm 3dpo so fingers crossed we get lucky again!

@ThelastRolo20 it definitely does happen to a lot of people. I was only 6 weeks, must have been so hard at 12 weeks! I was so anxious when I was pregnant after and I will probably be the same this time. Good luck to you both! @miamiamia869

@MrsAnonymous24 @miamiamia869 I miscarried at 12 weeks in Oct but I've had a normal period since. It happens to so many people! x

@miamiamia869 yeah I could do, I’ll try and hold out and wait lol
So sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Sending you positive vibes! I actually conceived my Son after my first normal period after my miscarriage, I didn’t try before I had a period as I was just trying to process it all. Definitely hope for you fingers crossed 🤞

@AppleCrumble96 i said the same thing to my Husband and he said we will just try again next month.. but our Son was conceived first month of trying so I think he secretly thinks it will happen first time! 😳

@MrsAnonymous24 I have no clue with testing to be honest but maybe a early detention one if you do want to do it early?

I don't have a period due date cause I misscarried on 6th Nov at 12 weeks and it took 3 weeks for the HCG to leave my system. I tracked ovulation and going from that it should be next Thursday. I'm well aware my cycle is probably going to be all crazy and i dont know what to expect, but refuse to let myself anything other than positivity at the moment lol.

@ThelastRolo20 yeah you want to be free on Saturday to enjoy. So everything is saying to us hold on till 14th so this we must lol

@ThelastRolo20 I hope you manage to wait till Thursday 🤞 That’s fab that you’re working from home, I also work from home some days and I’ll be home when AF is due too! My colleagues would defo know if something was up! I’m actually in the office tomorrow and Monday and have a busy weekend hopefully I’ll be distracted enough to not test.
Do you have any symptoms yet?

@AppleCrumble96 distractions are good! I'm waiting until next Thursday (hopefully) so an entire week to go. It's going to go slowly I know..... just trying to keep busy!

@ThelastRolo20 I want to try hold out on testing until Monday if I can as I would be 12dpo by then and AF will be due anytime from then . Finding it really hard not too now! I won’t be able to test Saturday/Sunday as I’m away visiting family so will probably keep me occupied 🤞. When are you planning on testing? I said to my husband it won’t happen first time round so if it did think he will be shocked! xx

@MrsAnonymous24 I'm due on next Wednesday/ Thursday. I'm going to do my best to wait until Thursday. I'm working from home that day so if it's a negative I don't have to put on a brave face at work - I work in HR so a very social role!

@miamiamia869 same! I have plans this Saturday (9DPO) and didn't want to feel down, and I'm really busy at work and need to be on it. I won't be if I know it's negative! and I agree - these two weeks have never gone slower!

Shopping trip sounds lovely :)

Thank you! It’s so hard, I just want to know! Well I want to be able to hold out until AF is due next Tuesday/Wednesday.. but I keep thinking maybe I’ll test tomorrow at 10dpo. What about you?

@ThelastRolo20 . That's exactly what I would have done had I tested. This is why I need to be strong...I'm gonna hold on to 14th. I am shopping with mum on 13th, something we don't get to do often so don't want to test early and be miserable over a negative.

I have never had 2 weeks feel so long. My 2 week holidays never seem to go on this long haha.. but we are half way through so we got this lol.

Anyone close to testing yet as I know a few people are ahead of us?? Good luck if you are

Welcome to the longest wait ever @MrsAnonymous24 fingers crossed for you and all xx

@MrsAnonymous24 welcome! The temptation to test is hard to resist so well done haha. When are you thinking of testing?

@miamiamia869 I'm always tempted to test early but if it is negative I'd rather find out by AF arriving as at least then I'm already onto the next cycle! For me I really dislike the time between knowing it's not happened, and AF arriving. So although I'd love to know as early as possible if I was pregnant, I think it's worth holding off a couple of days :)

Also, if it's negative I start telling myself it's because I've tested early so then I'm in denial haha. Fingers crossed for us x

Hello! Can I join?
Around 9dpo today! Some mild cramps today.
TTC baby #2, my Son is 18 months old. I hate the waiting, trying not to test just yet

@ThelastRolo20 @bubballoo all testing the same day. I very almost tested today but told myself stop being insane woman it's no where near time lol. I have never ever been an early tester either. Infact only ever tested once when I got my positive with my misscarriage and I have been over a week late many times but still never tested. The misscarriage has sent me into an obsession lol, but trying to stay strong and hold on to 14th. Wishing everyone lots of luck and Christmas miracles. Imagine how beautiful thay would feel xx
