Back at the start of another TWW… anyone else at the same point and fancy being TWW buddies?
We have tried the SMEP method and conceive plus lubricant this month, time will tell if they have made a difference!🤞🏼

Why do the men just show up and hope for the best and is women have to endure the TWW. I don't think my partner even knows what a TWW is 😂

@Littlebean25 ha he literally didn't believe it last time until it got to the dye stealer stage 😂

I haven't even told my husband that I've been testing, better keep him blissfully unaware than have him roll his eyes at me multiple times a day 😂

Same! His usual response to all my symptoms is 'you say this every month' don't think he'd believe a BFP if it ever happens!

This really is the loveliest and most hilarious thread 💗 Getting me through day by day! Thank you @Emiily887

Haha nah I’d rather go mad testing with all of you girls than be an emotional mess alone. The weeks have been way more bearable. Who knew a load of strangers could be so supportive 🩷

This is 10000% the best thread I’ve ever seen on here and it’s such a pleasure being part of it! You’re all so lovely!!🩷

If my husband is anything to go by I’m assuming you’ve all had the ‘why not just test when your periods due?’ 😂
Because I must love the stress of ‘is that a line or is it my eyes?’, clearly have a brilliant bond with my torch and above all have absolutely zero self control when it comes to the tww🤣

@LuxyLocket haha!!😂 he knows you too well! Blame it on us for encouraging the testing🤣
It is, it’s really helping me! I think I’d be an emotional wreck right now if it wasn’t for all of you!!🥹

@owlcat24 that could be promising, is your af spotting normally as early?
I had a little streak of pink cm 2 days ago so 6dpo, nothing since! Hopefully it’s a good sign for us!! Xx

Usually about 3-4 days before so it is a bit early, but who knows?!

We are all so alike!!! 😂which is super re assuring we’re all in the same boat!

my husband saw the look on my face just now and said ’you’ve tested again haven’t you?’ 🤣he didn’t even need to ask.

this is the loveliest chat honestly

owlcat24 · 19/09/2024 21:00

My AF is also due around 25/26th and I am definitely testing first thing tomorrow 😂 BUT I also have some very light pink spotting this evening, don't know if it's implantation spotting or AF spotting (as I do get it a few days before I'm due on)...

Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 20:57

Bb542 · 19/09/2024 20:55

I definitely felt deflated seeing the BFN this morning but going to test again in the morning for science purposes only 😂😂😂

ONLY science purposes, I’m using that from now on🤣🤣🤣
I’ll just tell myself and my husband I’m conducting an experiment, I don’t know what it’s about yet but I’ll figure it out🤣

OP posts:
Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 20:56

Oh ladies what are we turning into😂😂😂 I’m honestly so glad it’s not just me, I’ve never felt so empowered to take POAS to the next level before 🤣
My husband literally thinks I’ve gone mad, he emptied the bathroom bin last month, bought it to me and went ‘so one negative wasn’t enough, you just wanted to check another 45 times?’🤣 yes, yes I did…

I'm 7po tomorrow but I know myself enough to know nothing could keep me from doing a test in the morning.
I'll stare it on and off all day. If I think there's a hint, I'll take 105 pics of it and then do a few more tests later on.

This really made me giggle

LuxyLocket · 19/09/2024 20:49

Thanks @Emiily887
and lol lol lol at all of this as I’ve also been doing the whole taking loads of pictures/using torch etc!

Hope your cold is better soon @boymumtoone ❤️‍🩹

Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 20:40

@LuxyLocket I feel really deflated, but trying to tell myself it’s still early and literally the first day I could get a positive because it’s exactly what I’d say to you guys! Just need to take my own advice sometimes 😫

@boymumtoone bless you! How many dpo are you again? There’s so many people on here now it’s hard to remember 🙈😂 I’m ok, cramps have gone since the brief sharp pains earlier and just headachy but totally normal for me so not thinking into that one…yet🤣

It is still soo early even though for us feels like it's been a month since we ovulated 🙈🤣 I've been watching Emma Willis Delivering Babies to pass the time and pray it's me soon in 9 months🤞🏼

I peaked early morning 8 days ago so I'm either 7 or 8 DPO today. I've also been a little headachey but I have been a little ill the last week as my son came home with a cold last week🤧

Embrace it, there’s a few of us that tested at 7dpo 😂🙈 I’ve done the whole sitting on the toilet with my torch today too🤣

Science LOL love it.

anyone else feeling a bit sad after the Bfns? or just keeping hopeful that’s it’s still early. I feel a bit knocked from seeing the negative tonight. But you guys are cheering me up

Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 19:53

I’m honestly so glad I started this thread, I don’t think I could have mentally coped with another tww without all this talking, tmi sharing and embracing our inner crazies!😂
Genuinely lovely facing it together, it can be such a lonely journey sometimes!
How’s everyone feeling this evening? 🩷

I'm so glad you did too! It definitely helps speaking to people in the same situation🥰

I've got an achey leg and very mild cramps in my abdo this evening. How are you feeling?

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 20:32

I think i will in the morning too just for “science” lol

let us know how you get on!🤞🏼
