TWW - who else is in their two week wait?

Hi girls,
Just checking if anyone else is in their TWW and wants to join this thread? I'm 3dpo TTC1. This is cycle #1 following two losses so I'm scared 😅 but trying to stay positive. I'm soooo tired today but definitely too early for symptoms.
How's everyone else doing?

@Adventureandlight hopefully it's a sticky one 🤞🏼 I've everything crossed for you.

I'm in a similar situation. Started getting vvfl at 11dpo yesterday evening. It was a bit of a shock as I had totally given up by yesterday morning. I don't think they're getting any darker so I think I'm having a chemical 😭

@Adventureandlight That is exciting what test did you use and how many dpo? Fingers crossed you get a stronger line next test! I'm 8dpo and did a first responde today, no line that I could see. Feel quite cramps today so a bit nervous that af is on way

Adventureandlight · 23/09/2024 08:59

Morning, how did everyone sleep? I have the faintest faintest line ever this morning. Was hoping after my chemical last time that my next positive would be a bit more reassuring but have ordered some more tests so will see what tomorrow brings 🤞

@Bb542 ah sorry to hear that. Same re AF I just want it to arrive now so that I'm starting a new cycle. I tested on Thursday BFN and having all my normal pre AF symptoms (super tired / craving sugar)

We can't get them in Ireland 💔 I've heard they're supposed to be good. How are you doing lovely?

Could you try a frer from amazon instead? Or pink dyes are supposed to be better than the blue ones at avoiding indents. I've got everything crossed for you x

I feel like I saw an extremely faint shadow of line this evening when I did a test but I'm sure it's probably just line eyes. I wish I could make myself wait a few days before testing again but I just can't help it. Have had cramps on and off today and boobs feel a little heavier which is what I get with pms anyway

I've been using easy @ home, boots early tests and Premom ones. Have had indents on them all but the boots one in particular have given very strong lines.

Have you tried the wondfo ones? Their supposed to be good at not having indents and the only ones I use before confirming with a clearblue digital.

Ooh that sounds promising. I can't believe you haven't tested yet. I admire your strength ❤️

I'm a bit deflated. I keep getting indents on tests. Fully went to bed last night thinking I was pregnant and was so disappointed when I woke up this morning. Just want AF to arrive now so I can move on 😫

It messes with your mind so much doesn't it 😔💔 what tests are you using?

Evening all 👋 how's everyone feeling? My cramps from this morning have gone now so am feeling a little bit more positive than I was but still trying not to test until Monday. Feels soooooo long away 😂

So sorry to hear this girls. I got a false positive last night. BFN this morning so now I'm sad. Sending you love x

So sorry to here this. You're not out till your period shows up though so got everything crossed for you x

Morning all! Felt positive in the early hours as had some very light cramping at 9dpo but now it's too strong to be implantation and looking back at the symptoms I logged last month it looks like AF on the way. Have also woken up a weepy ragey mess which I guess is PMS 😂😭 still going to hold off testing until Monday unless AF arrives x

Got everything crossed for you. Doesn't help that pms and early pregnancy symptoms are basically the same!

Tested this morning and got a BFN, not surprised but just couldn't help but test.

All good here, not sleeping deeply at all for 5 nights now. Twinging a lot but this could be warming up for AF.
Anyone tested yet?
7dpo today and fairly relaxed still so far...

I'm 7dpo tomorrow and thinking I want to start testing. Had some cramping today but again not sure if it's anything in particular. I wish time would speed up!

Morning! How is everyone? I'm so tired today but don't think it's a symptom. I had crazy dreams last night and our dog woke me up at 3am to go out. I think 8dpo for me now x

pigw · 20/09/2024 06:35

I tested yesterday as I couldn't hold out anymore 😂 BFN. I'm not really having any symptoms so not holding out much hope. AF due on Monday

NphysT · 20/09/2024 06:22

Bb542 · 19/09/2024 19:56

Anyone else not sleeping well? I keep waking up wide awake at 4am and can't go back to sleep 😭

I have had this today and yesterday. 6dpo today and trying to not let it get to my head although I don't think I'm going to hold out and will start testing tomorrow even though I know I won't get a positive till 9dpo at the earliest.

Keep telling myself it's not worked this cycle to try and not get my hopes up

Has anyone caved and tested yet? I'm still determined to hang on until Monday but the weekends are harder to resist when not at work 😂 I've seen I had a reeeeeally short follicular phase this period so have convinced myself (thanks to Dr Google) there's no way it's going to work out this month. I get SUCH vivid dreams when I'm pregnant too. When I had my chemical I had an implantation bleed at 8dpo so looking out for that but literally zero symptoms over here 😬

I tested today at 6dpo! I know it's ridiculous but I just got the urge. I actually enjoy it more than I should. A real addiction.

I've got my test out ready for tomorrow morning already so I'm not even kidding myself.

When I test early and see nothing ut feels like I've cheated myself from having that big reveal bfp wow moment. I'd like to not test until 10dpo but I know I don't have the will power.

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 20:34

I’ve had a headache for 3 days now, I think I will do a test in the morning because I just can’t wait lol
