Anyone else in TWW or TTC in January?

I can’t believe all of these bfp’s!!! So wonderful to see, it really is!!

@Ella31 If your period was longer then I’m guessing it could be about right that your beginning your fertile phase?

I started feeling nauseous yesterday, not throw up nausea, but pregnancy type just lingering. Convinced myself I was pregnant all day, happily stripping wallpaper etc.

Got in the loo this morning complete with my little cup and test. Caught my pee, got the test out and popped it in said pee, put it aside and then got the loo paper and wiped - blood. CD1.

Why all of the symptoms? It’s just so cruel isn’t it.

This will have been our third cycle. I know that’s nothing really, but I have always caught soon before. I’m 43 now and maybe it’s just not going to happen again 😓

Congrats @siobhanmt247 and @Kofifi - definitely lines there!

@Ella31 fingers crossed for you that your peak is coming soon then!

@MrsP20202 you're not our til AF...so many girls say they just feel off rather than classic symptoms so you never know!

Welcome @Sandwichesandwine! Will keep everything crossed for you!

Sandwichesandwine · 09/01/2024 23:10

Can I please join? Been lurking a few days so have enjoyed seeing all the BFPs!
We are TTC #2. Been trying since about March last year. Had a MC at around 9 weeks in November so this is our first cycle since then. I think I'm about 7dpo no symptom spotting yet as have kept myself busy. It's normally this second week of TWW that my sanity tends to disappear though 😩 and as I'm laid in bed typing this I'm thinking my boobs are quite sore.
I'm desperate for this to be our month 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 here's hoping it is for everyone else still in the mix too ✨✨

@Ella31 didn't you say you had a longer than normal period this time? Would make sense then if you're fertile soon after. My Flo app is telling me my fertile window will start the day after my period ends so definitely not unheard of! With my super short cycle in November it looks like I ovulated on CD9.

2 days longer, I'm just hoping this is for real and I get a peak in the next few days.

siobhanmt247 · 09/01/2024 21:43

@MrsP20202 you might surprise yourself... X

MrsP20202 · 09/01/2024 21:35

@Kofifi oooohhhh that’s definitely it babe congratulations! No line eyes there 😍 love seeing all these positives !

i don’t think iv conceived this month period in 8 days and no symptoms and I just don’t feel pregnant not very confident at all haha just feel like meh if that makes sense 🤦🏻‍♀️

siobhanmt247 · 09/01/2024 21:32

@Kofifi thank you. I already have two positive pink ones but don't want to do a digital if these don't look strong enough

Kofifi · 09/01/2024 21:22

Thanks guys! Glad to know I'm not seeing things! Will test again tomorrow morning and update.

@siobhanmt247 looks pregnant to me! I would try a one with pink dye or digital to be 100% sure.

siobhanmt247 · 09/01/2024 20:51

Do you guys think I'm safe to take a digital with this line? My OH refuses to believe I'm pregnant and says I'm being silly because I've not even missed my period. Im 12dpo tomorrow

Hi all - hoping I can join too as relatively new to this... 2nd month tracking ovulation but I haven't had a positive yet even though did on CD13 last cycle.. now on CD16 but nothing...and I'm fairly regular - this normal?! I'm second guessing everything, worried I'm not ovulating this cycle! Confused

mumto1girlie · 09/01/2024 20:45

@TrainIsMoving thank you so much x

mumto1girlie · 09/01/2024 20:41

Bey · 09/01/2024 20:27

Puddingpie1234 · 09/01/2024 20:25

Kofifi · 09/01/2024 20:23

Congrats @mumto1girlie . Stay strong everyone else!

Im 10dpo and tested midday. Need opinion... Is this line eyes or faint positive? Its more pink that in the picture. Trying not to get hopes up as I know clearblue are famous for evap lines.

Sarah452 · 09/01/2024 20:05

Congrats for all the positive tests!!

I’ve got a sore throat so think I’m coming down ill again 😩

Alh96 · 09/01/2024 20:03

@TrainIsMoving fingers crossed for you. AF was due for me on Sunday and still no sign. I normally suffer with awful pains, but nothing.

still testing negative as well at 12 DPO.

Ella31 · 09/01/2024 14:21

Ladies need a bit of advice - flashing smiley on Opk 2 days after my period ended? Any thoughts?

TrainIsMoving · 09/01/2024 13:59

@mumto1girlie hoping for healthy happy pregnancy! 🙏🏻

Bfn for me today and tomorrow is AF due date. Good luck to everyone still waiting. Please tag me in any new thread, I shall be back opking to in 10 days.

Hi guys, could do with a bit of a pep talk :(

AF is here. This means my cycle was only 26 days (it’s usually about 31/32) and my luteal phase was only about 10 days. I’ve looked back at my cycles have been 32, 29, 40, 30, 33, 27… then they stabilise, so it seems like my periods are becoming more irregular and my app is saying they are officially irregular now at 30 + or - 5 days.

I’m conscious of my age as well at 34, does the above sound like something to worry about? What would have caused my cycle to be this short? I’m even taking supplements so the fact my luteal phase was only 10 days concerns me! Sorry I don’t know if I’m being a drama queen or over panicking here, apologies if I am.

@Daisychain27 my Luteal phase was 10/11 days when I conceived twice before. Also anything can throw off a cycle- you are ovulating, that's the important bit. 34 is young, I'm 33 and after my loss, I was devastated thinking my years are going, and the gp looked at me like I was mad. The rhetoric in the media is ridiculous, obviously younger is better, but 30's is more common now for women having their babies.

Here's to the next month. Hopefully we'll be lucky.
