1dpo - Anyone want to join during the two week wait?

921 replies

Hi all, currently 1dpo. Hoping for a lucky month. I lost my twin boys a few months ago at 29 weeks due to TTTS. Two days before this I had a beautiful scan and two perfect babies - only 6 weeks away from c-section. And two days after my scan - our world fell apart. I had no movement and all of a sudden, I was told one of my babies had no heartbeat and then four days later, we had to remove life support from his twin brother as he was so ill. My sons were beautiful, visually perfect babies who were so unlucky. I miss them terribly.

So Here I am 1dpo and hoping for the best. Would love the support from any other hopeful ladies and in turn I'll support ye too. Much luck to us all 😀

Aww @Holl89 congrats! Fingers crossed it's sticky for you 💓

Holl89 · 30/01/2024 07:42

I caved this morning and couldn’t wait any longer… 12DPO 🥺
I’m seriously scared coz I had a MMC in October and a chemical last month but I’m absolutely praying it’s a sticky one 🤍

@Beanie14 that was me yesterday peeing every 5 mins I put it down to Summer. Progesterone can also make us drink more but I was only 2dpo yesterday lol

Libbynznz · 30/01/2024 03:06

Sorry hear about your losses. I’m an angel mum too. I’m 3dpo not really have symptoms.

@narwhalsarereal Welcome!
It’s so hard not to analyse even the smallest of things. In the same boat trying to tell myself I’m imagining things 😂

narwhalsarereal · 29/01/2024 21:58

Can I join you all.

Currently 1dpo, TTC our 1st, this is month 3 of trying.

It's so damn stressful, I'm 1dpo & v sore boobs (mainly the nipples) & I'm trying not tell myself it means nothing 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hopefully it I'd. My boobs were very sore last time I was pregnant and they're so now. But trying to remind myself I'm barely 2dpo

@Bugdem123 I’m going to try and wait it out. I think I tested positive at 10dpo on last pregnancy. I’ll at least wait till then but don’t want to know if it’s a chemical so might wait until period is due before testing. I need some serious will power!! I have no patience usually 😬

Me neither! I always cave and start testing around 7dpo 🙄 and end up spending money on tests for no reason every single month

MamaBee23 · 29/01/2024 21:16

Beanie14 · 29/01/2024 20:39

Guys I know this may be coincidental but I can’t stop peeing today. Every hour! Which definitely isn’t like me!! I’m usually 4 hours.
mum only 4dpo so wondering could it be implantation hormone related ??

I don't know but fingers crossed for you 🤞xx

Westsussex · 29/01/2024 21:04

Hi all, I'll join in if that's ok, I think I'm ovulating today as I had a solid smiley on a clear blue yesterday. Do you all count day one as the day after??

I'm over a year trying now since our mc, husband has low motility, which we've been working on.

We've been on macca, very high quality b1 suppliments, zinc, and recently black seed oil plus healthier living, weight loss etc.

I'm so sorry to read all of your stories and so hoping to see some positive stories this month as it sometimes feels like it will never happen! Xxx

Hi all, so sorry to hear about this losses. Im
ttc baby 1 on third month. Estimating around 7dpo, no symptoms as of yet but know its too early.

The whole process is making me stressed and then I’m stressed about being stressed affecting conception 😅 nightmare

Bugdem123 · 29/01/2024 17:44

@Ella31 that's so early!! Its definitely made it harder for me to hold off on testing as I know that it might be positive. A few of my friends have told me to stop the early testing but I kind of see it as if it is positive then I get to know about them for that few days longer and from my last pregnancy, those extra few days mean the world now.

@MamaBee23 yeah, it will literally drive you mad! I tell myself every month I'm not going to symptom spot and then by 7DPO I'm googling like a maniac.

I couldn't believe it but there it was. I'd love to conceive twins again but part of me would be afraid of the trauma it can bring.

Hello! I’m joining, currently 3DPO. We have been trying for few months🤞🏼I have a little sore boobs and feeling light headed (get dizzy if I stand to quickly up)

MamaBee23 · 29/01/2024 14:21

Honestly this TTC journey is enough to send you crazy isn't it? I'm 3dpo & I have a tender boob & immediately my mind goes into overdrive. Is it a sign? Lol. Trying not to think about it too much but it's hard.

Jadex92x · 29/01/2024 12:46

@Holl89 aww good luck for when you test 🤞

Holl89 · 29/01/2024 11:28

11DPO for me and still haven’t caved and tested 🤣😭
I have zero symptoms sooo… 🥺
I just know it’ll make me sad but I think I’ll test tomorrow on my day off
I had planned to wait until 14DPO!

Bugdem123 · 29/01/2024 10:11

I'm an early tester too so good to see I'm in good company 😂. I think I'll be 10DPO by the time I test. I got a BFP at 9DPO in my first pregnancy which has been a blessing and a curse.

We're away with my husbands family so I can't decide whether to drink or not as I don't really want any questions. I'm probably going to have one glass of something at dinner just for show but other wise stick to soft drinks. Wishing us all baby dust this month x

Would you believe I got a positive digital with my twins at 8dpo. I couldn't believe it.

Hello - joining as I’m 4DPO and feel like I’m going a bit crazy googling! First month tracking but 3rd month of DTD at the right time (ish… I think…). Symptom spotting like mad and time is going so slowly. I’m going to early test as will feel more in control. Sending love to everyone who’s been through really challenging & heartbreaking situations - 🙏🏼 praying Feb 2024 will be happy news for everyone

I completely get what you mean about feeling in control. This week feels so long

@Bugdem123 hi 👋🏻 it is scary how obsessed you can become 😂 I won't be able to wait to test , I will probably start testing at 7dpo , I'm currently 2dpo . Enjoy your weekend away !

Hey all, I'll join too! Currently 3DPO!
We're trying for our first and had a MC in September so really hoping this will be our cycle. I've been taking coQ10, extra methyfolate, vit D and proceive so hoping that will have improved any egg quality issues that there might have been.

We're away this weekend so hoping that passes the time. I have an embarrassing stash of different tests - wondfo, FRER, easy@home and clear blue digitals. It's an obsession 😂.

Hope the time passed quickly for us all. Are you early testers or do you want until you're due?

I'm terrible for early testing. I've loads of cheapies to scratch that itch but I won't use a proper test until at least Friday which is still early 🤣🤣

Sorry for your loss. Xx
