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!🤞🏼

Thanks @Emiily887 you are so lovely.
I am due 25th/26th so we are very similar!

@LucyLou0527 I will again first thing in the morning. Then will do it on the weekend

@LuxyLocket not daft at all, just a crazy tester like me😂 hopefully a line appears for you in the next few days 🤞🏼🤞🏼
AF is due on my app on the 24th, but I’m normally a day later than it predicts! So I think it’ll be the 25th….but hopefully not at all!!
Oooo that could be a sign!! But like you say, we notice everything when we’re in this dreaded wait 😫

who is testing tomorrow?🩷

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 20:23

Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 20:16

@Bb542 bless you! Let us know how tomorrow’s test goes!! I’m trying soooo hard not to test again tonight😂
Feeling ok, nothing since the brief sharp pains earlier. A bit head achy but that’s normal for me!

@LuxyLocket same here! We’ve still got lots of time!! Was it an evening wee too?

@LucyLou0527 do you normally get headaches? My cramps have gone too, how bizarre!!

Praying to wake up to a thread full of positives tomorrow🥲

Headaches aren’t too common for me and especially not for three days straight!

LuxyLocket · 19/09/2024 20:20

@MsCactus yes it’s totally cruel! I’ve got a few symptoms but they could also be PMS. It’s a minefield!

@Emiily887 aww yeah we’ve still got time. We’re not out yet! It was an evening wee and I’ve drank loads today so probably daft to test haha just couldn’t resist! Will try again in the morning and over weekend. When is AF due for you?

randomly this evening I’ve suddenly noticed my boobs look more veiny. I know that can be a sign but maybe they always are before I’m due on and I just don’t notice? Haha

Does anyone else think it's cruel how AF and early pregnancy symptoms can be so similar?

My boobs always get a cup size bigger right before my period... And yet my first pregnancy symptom was breast swelling 🙈 so every month I think (...maybe!) haha

Yes!!! Why can’t the signs be polar opposites🙈

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 20:05

I’ve had a headache for 3 days now 😩 no cramps or anything this evening though, just absolutely drained and could sleep for weeks

LuxyLocket · 19/09/2024 19:57

Tested this evening with first response and hcg strip and no faint lines. I’m roughly 8/9dpo. But not exactly sure when I ovulated. AF not due til next Thurs so maybe there is still time….

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? 🩷

Feeling normal which I'm sad about 🤣 kind of want to test again but going to wait until the morning. I only have two boots tests in the house now so don't want to waste them.

How are you feeling?

I’ve just checked the statistics for a positive pregnancy test (I do it every month on countdown to pregnancy and always forget lol)! Only 18-19% have a positive at 8dpo but 9dpo is pretty much 50/50….soooo hopefully we’ll have an influx of positives tomorrow 🤣

Ready for this! Good luck ladies!!! 🤞

Littlebean25 · 19/09/2024 19:45

Emiily887 · 19/09/2024 16:45

I did it too😂 my opk is looking exactly like yours @LucyLou0527 🤣

Also guilty of doing an OPK this morning and gutted when it wasn't a peak 🙈

Littlebean25 · 19/09/2024 19:43

Bb542 · 19/09/2024 13:26

I am imagining us all sitting on our toilets with our torches on trying to find the lines 😂 I'm so guilty of this 😂

Loving this group!! 🩷 we're all crazy 😂

Haha definitely 🤣🤣 I've been putting mine on the window ledge so far for light.. feel like such an amateure 👀🔦🔦

Littlebean25 · 19/09/2024 19:41

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 13:10

I am so excited to see all of our positives ladies!

however we will probably have to start a new thread at some point as this one is growing quickly!

Loving this vibe 🙌🙌 I'm excited to see them too!

Best thread I’ve been on so far!

thanks @Emiily887 for starting! 🩷

I agree, this is such a great thread of super supportive women! I really do have my fingers and toes crossed for all your upcoming bfps! 🩷

boymumtoone · 19/09/2024 17:30

Hoping you all get BFP girlies!! 🤞🏼 I'm holding out to test until next week. I'm either 7DPO or 8DPO today. This month is seriously dragging 🤣

I'm not sure if my CM has changed at all it's not EW yet though 😕

Bb542 · 19/09/2024 17:21

Told myself I wouldn't buy anymore pregnancy tests...Amazon order coming tomorrow and went to boots on the way home to buy more 😅😅😅 why do I do this to myself 🥲😂

PennyPencils · 19/09/2024 17:11

owlcat24 · 19/09/2024 14:48

@PennyPencils why did you say that, my brain is now telling me to dig this mornings BFN test out of the bathroom bin and shine a torch onto it 😂

Ha do it!
There's no point in trying to be calm in the TWW
