Hi ladies Flowers
Just thought I'd start a thread to see if anyone else is 3DPO and wanted to be TWW budies Smile
This is my first cycle trying for #2 x

@Nic2908 yes defo wait for at least 9dpo , as it’s still early at 9 dpo but you could be lucky and get a squinter as many do , but if you then you’ll still have lots of time after that ! 😃

Ilovebees · 20/01/2024 17:12

@Hann1905 thank you for welcoming me ! Yes I can’t wait to test again to see ! What DPO are you now ? I will be 10 DPO tomorrow ! I did test at 7DPO and 100% negative ! So I would not recommend testing so early as I hurt my feelings for no reason 🙄hopefully my squinter gets darker tomorrow ! Been trying for 1 year now .

Nic2908 · 20/01/2024 17:09

I’ve caved and ordered some freers which will come tomorrow. Going to hold out until Monday when I’m 9dpo. But that’s still super early isn’t it. I had the most awful wave of nausea today, I literally had to stop and breath.

Can I join plsss 🤩🤩🤩 I am 9dpo and I think I got a squinter today ! I know I’m a little further than you guys but we are still pretty close to dates 🥹

I'm 1dpo and it's probably totally unrelated but I am exhausted today. Literally could fall asleep at any second 😴

Me too! I kept nodding off in the bath and then I fell asleep on the sitting room floor whilst children played around me! I’d love to think this was something as that sort of crippling exhaustion is what I have in early pregnancy but given it’s 1dpo I’m sure it’s actually that I have a really nasty cold! Nipples are still agony. My top touching them hurts.

@Moominmamato3 I think that's my reason for doing it too! Luckily I've got a busy day planned tomorrow, so hopefully will take my mind of it!

@Bb542 I feel like I'm constantly tired anyway 🤣 but my boobs have been feeling so heavy! Like bags of sand!

@Hann1905 What are we like 😂 I blame it on it being the weekend and not being able to distract myself as easily as I can during the week!

You're not alone girls! I'm only 6DPO and the devil on my shoulder convinced me to take a test. Obviously it was negative, don't know why I do it 😂

Bb542 · 20/01/2024 14:04

Don't worry girls. 7dpo is too early so still plenty of hope 🥰

Moominmamato3 · 20/01/2024 13:53

@Nic2908 im 7dpo too and just couldn’t help myself

Nic2908 · 20/01/2024 12:36

I’m 7dpo today and so desperate to test

Moominmamato3 · 20/01/2024 11:38

After saying I was avoiding testing I caved this morning 🤦‍♀️ it was negative as expected and now feel silly for wasting the test!

Bb542 · 20/01/2024 08:52

Ooh interesting. You never know. And it's so hard not to symptom spot. I've 0 symptoms but that's fine at only 1dpo. Very glad I'll be in work next week to distract myself 😄

@Applesandcake yay I'm so happy we're in the exact same day of our cycle. Imagine if both of us were lucky enough to become pregnant! We'd have a similar due date 🥹
So sorry you're sick 💔 I'd say you DTD plenty and I think now it's time to just sit back and let things happen whatever way they're meant to. We DTD Sunday, Monday and Thursday so we'll see if it was enough 🤔

That would be amazing 🤩 I’m already symptom spotting despite saying I absolutely wouldn’t and instead it was literally O day that I started! It’s only because it’s a very different symptom for me. My nipples were/are absolute agony and it’s excruciating breastfeeding my second born. I know this is a common ovulation symptom but it’s one I don’t have. I’ve done seed cycling this month, so wonder if that’s done something to my hormones which have meant I have more progesterone at this time this cycle and therefore am hurting but OUCH!

Starting the TWW tomorrow. Got my peak yesterday. LH has dropped right back down to 0.18 today. Now the waiting game begins.

How's everyone today?

Perfectly timed tww buddies this time around! And both on our second cycle 😎

As expected, we didn’t dtd tonight as actually neither of us were well enough. I feel blooming awful! Would have to for me to miss a chance to dtd on ovulation day! But as I said, I’m trying to be relaxed and know it’ll happen when it happens. So ttw starts tomorrow.

@onethingonly - I’m due around 2nd Feb and think ovulated Monday/Tuesday - DTD Sat eve … since Tuesday I’ve had fullness cramping, constipation (only get this when AF is due) so I’m wondering if ovulation or the start of a pregnancy.

onethingonly · 19/01/2024 20:01

Hi all can I join too? Had my static smiley on Sunday morning and DTD sat and Sunday. Period due next Saturday.

I've seen a few people describing fullness/pressure in pelvis, almost like a constant full bladder. Slight nausea too that almost feels like nervous tummy. Are these common symptoms of pregnancy for those who have been pregnant before ?

Nic2908 · 19/01/2024 17:18

What’s the earliest anyone has tested positiv?

I had an incredibly faint line on a first response early test at 8dpo with my son and 9dpo with my daughter. I had a miscarriage after an unplanned pregnancy in the spring and did not get a positive until 13dpo, but I wasn’t using as sensitive tests and also I wonder if the fact it took that long compared to my others might have been linked to the fact I then went on to miscarriage a few days later.

@Moominmamato3 tests have gone so expensive! The easy at home were quite good value for 20 though!

@Nic2908 with my first I had a negative test at 10DPO and then a positive at 11DPO.

Moominmamato3 · 19/01/2024 17:02

I’m trying to avoid testing as tests are so expensive but it’s hard isn’t it? My period is due next Thursday so I think I could test Sunday (6 days early) but I don’t want to risk wasting a test. My cycles can vary in length so it’s hard to know what to do
