8DPO TTC#1 - anyone else?

Hi all!
This is my 4th cycle, longing for 2 lines on a test someday! I'm 8DPO and have been doing ok up until now in my 2WW but as usual, the obsessive googling has started again as I desperately symptom spot.

Anyone else in a similar position or in their luteal phase at the moment?

For those of you who already have DC, how many cycles in to TTC did you fall pregnant? (If you were actively trying...)

Baby dust to my fellow TTC-ers ✨

hello! 😇 im 7DPO and first time TTC. This is our first cycle trying… although not sure I can count it as we only DTD once this month!! That doesn’t stop me desperately symptom spotting, can relate to the obsessive googling and daydreaming too! I’d just love to get a positive before Xmas… really hoping we get super lucky but also know my chances are low (have to keep reminding myself of this because I’m getting so carried away). When are you planning to test? I’m trying to make myself wait til day period due and assuming it doesn’t come then test. Mainly to avoid wasting tests! All my friends seem to have got pregnant either accidentally or on first try! One of my friends even fell pregnant when she hadn’t actually had a period for well over a year! She said she barely even DTD and didn’t find out she was pregnant until about 3.5 months!!! Claiming some of that baby dust 😅

I'll join!

I'm 5 dpo today with no symptoms whatsoever. This is my first cycle after a 5 month break and I'm trying to be relaxed 😌

Dying to POAS though ha!

@NHT oh best of luck!!
I know, I catch myself daydreaming as well about the possibilities. Would love for 2024 to be the year I become a mum.

I know that cycle 4 is very early days, but it also feels like it has been forever! The constant waiting for ovulation and then for AF is draining 😅

Keep me posted on any developments/symptoms if you fancy sharing and chatting about it ☺️

5DPO and also cycle 4 ttc #1 🥰. Would love to get a BFP before Christmas (appreciate it can take much longer, just wishful thinking)! Baby dust back 💫
