I’m 3dpo, 4th month of trying for no2. im sat here with cramping and needing to wee more frequently than usual.
with my first I had symptoms from 2DPO and got a BFP at 9dpo.

anyone else in the long wait and want to join?

I got my BFP at 12 dpo! We're in New York on holiday too so was really special. Hope everyone either got the results they wanted or will do very soon.

@Samthenanny ah sorry to hear this! It is very disappointing especially when your body is doing crazy things! I was always regular until I was trying and then my body started playing up giving me false hope - it's so annoying! Fingers crossed for next month for you though xxx

I’m out AF showed up friday morning, I was so disappointed. I was 3 days late and normally pretty regular, had all the signs. Only a 2 day bleed but it was definitely too heavy to be anything else so on to the next month of trying.

congratulations to all who got a BFP xx

@Saramirez congratulations!!

Loudandclear · 30/08/2024 08:01

Ah fantastic @Saramirez it is so definite seeing words rather than guessing lines isn't it! Such a shame it doesn't keep the words up forever to keep as a momento though. I took a standard test yesterday for reassurance and at 4 weeks it was thankfully a clear second line to reassure me as it was the only one left in my cupboard.
Sorry to hear you are out for this month @WhoOfWhoville , hopefully next month is your lucky one.
@Samthenanny I've got my fingers crossed for you today!

@Saramirez ah definitely look to maybe get one of the clearblue ultra early digitals. It's so reassuring to to see the word 'pregnant' and it worked at 10dpo for my last dc! But that line is pretty strong so I think a normal digital would likely work too.
@WhoOfWhoville it sounds so perfect for you to get a bfp this cycle, I have all my fingers crossed for you tomorrow morning!

@Loudandclear Absolutely they're fabulous. I bought 2 packs just in case but the first clearly displayed the magic 'pregnant' words. 4 weeks and 2 days today! Xx

Dullblue1234 · 29/08/2024 22:02

@Samthenanny ahh how exciting! Eagerly waiting with anticipation 🤞🤞

jollydollyirl · 29/08/2024 21:05

Sounds promising @Samthenanny!

@Dullblue1234 ive got first response at home but I’ve been convincing myself I’m pregnant for the last couple of months and kept peeing on sticks so I’ve one left and told myself I’d have boy use it if my period was late, I’m home tomorrow so will test then but I’m about 98% certain it’ll be a bfp as my boobs are hurting like crazy and af still hasn’t showed.

@Samthenanny have you used Cb early or first response? I find them so much better than the cheapies.... the cheapies are so hit and miss for me x

Dullblue1234 · 29/08/2024 13:22

Ahh sorry to hear that @whoofwhoville 🙈 so annoying about the test too.

WhoOfWhoville · 29/08/2024 13:04

My period came the other day so it’s not my month! Sod’s Law I’d just pee’d in a stick, put it to one side, wiped and saw my period had started. What a waste of a test 🤣

Congratulations to all the BFP 😊

im due my period today as of yet no sign. I tested with cheapies 8, 9 & 10dpo but all negative.
I’ve awful tingly boobs, headache, sicky feeling so will wait a couple of days to see if AF turns up

Camia · 27/08/2024 18:08

Congratulations everyone! I'm really tempted to test tomorrow which will be 10dpo but I know a BFN would just make me obsess over whether it was too early or not until my period is due so might be better to make myself wait. I'm just so impatient 😅

Daisyoopsies · 27/08/2024 16:33

Congratulation everyone! I'm 5dpo and I've noticed that I'm incredibly weepy and emotional today. It's too early for me to be PMS so wondering if anyone with a BFP experienced this maybe? I'm never usually this weepy this far out for AF but at the same time I know it's too early for implantation 🤔 so unlikely to be hormonal changes yet.

Loudandclear · 27/08/2024 12:43

Wow look at all those bfps! Huge congratulations to you all, and all the luck for those still waiting xx

PennysBoat · 27/08/2024 09:46

Congratulations! Look at all those lovely positive lines! I had another BFN today with fmu. Gonna wait a while now before any more testing, still early days to know for sure.

mumzy67 · 27/08/2024 07:49

@Dullblue1234 thank you 😊 ooh I see a line!!!! 🥳 congrats to you too x

Dullblue1234 · 27/08/2024 07:38

Ahh congrats @ljb23 @mumzy67 💕
I've tested again this morn, 10dpo... 🤞

Anyone else on the long 2WW?
mumzy67 · 27/08/2024 06:19

@ljb23 aww congrats! I was thinking it was just my body being weird again cuz last month was a weird period too but this time no hint at a period so tried it and there we go 😊 I'm 4 weeks and 3 days x

Hi all, thought I was out!! Took a test Saturday that was negative but not song of period on Sunday when due, still no signs and I've been having cramping which I normally only get when I'm bleeding so thought well if no spotting or signs of period this morning I'd do another test and it's positive 🥳 proves you are not out straight away ladies - good luck to you all 😊

Congratulations!! I counted myself out last week and then saw some positive lines! 4w2d today!

Hi, can I join? I'm 8dpo on our second cycle TTC. I'm trying not to symptom spot but it's so hard! I'm overthinking everything. The last couple days I've had sore nipples and not much appetite, so I'm hoping that means something but who knows. Currently debating how long to hold out before testing.

Hi, im about 8dpo also (not 100% sure as didnt track this cycle but I am very regular) and caved with a stark white BFN this morning and wish I hadnt. Even though we are NPNT at the moment, a bit of me was sad as would love a second child. Ive got lots of symptoms but I know its still really really early to know for sure!

Hi can I join please!

Driving my self mad with the TWW. I got pregnancy accidentally with my first so this is all new for me. I actually only DTD once 3 days before ovulation so I think that it's highly unlikely for me this month, but I've had strange cramps the past few days that make me feel like I'm about to come on my period (due on tomoz) I don't think I usually get that, but I never look out for the symptoms and it's only my first month trying. I'm also so tired I feel asleep in the middle of the day yesterday
