Hi everyone, is anyone else 1dpo?! Let's survive the TWW together if so 😀 DD is almost 2 and this is cycle #2 trying for baby #2!

@KKT199 - I had zero symptoms with my first until the day I turned 6 weeks. The second I did have a weirdly intense sense of smell.

Got everything crossed for you!

Sounds like a busy day and one to hopefully take your mind off things.

I am really interested to see what next week brings what with testing and potential symptoms!

For those who want to know!

@FlakyAquaQuoter thank you for sharing this!! I love reading about what could potentially be happening!

@KT199 hopefully all signs are pointing to a BFP rather than you coming down with anything.

Hope this is an excellent sign and not a sign of poorly for you!!

I'm following a chart of what the embryo does each day. Day 7, supposedly it burrows into the lining by... eating the endometrial cells.

So I've got one child eating me out of house and home, and hopefully another eating my insides. 😂

Well, I’ve had no “actual” symptoms so I would be confused, but it’s so hard to not hope isn’t it? I’ve exhausted Google about resting heart rate ect this morning 🤣 I’m wondering if it’s because I’ve had a very active morning so far too.. we was up and about by 7.30 shopping ect! Not sure how Apple Watches measure resting heart rate, as I didn’t have it in workout mode or anything for a walk around the shops!

🤣🤣 that’s very funny!!!

@FlakyAquaQuoter That sounds like a fabulous plan! We had our Tesco delivery this morning and it's that excitement of omg I could have literally anything for lunch 😂

@CatLady93 - Aren't they just 😂 I think the order of the day ought to be a tesco trip to feed everyone involved with something delicious. That should calm things down!

The info sheet I got from the clinic states to act pregnant until the end of my TWW, including eating habits etc.

So chocolate and beige goodness it is!

@KT199 How interesting! Do you feel poorly at all? 7dpo would probably be a bit early yeah, but I guess stranger things have happened! 👀

No, I had a stuffy nose yesterday evening but feel completely fine!! I guess I could have ovulated at CD17, like I felt my temps said and be 9DPO 🤷🏻‍♀️

@KT199 Wow, crazy! Ooo that is a lovely looking chart! Cautiously excited for you.. maybe it's a positive sign🤞🏼🤞🏼

My resting heart rate has also shot up, like massively it is normally 60-70 and this morning is reading at 90.. but I know both could be because I’m also getting ill so trying to remain calm. As if I’m only 7DPO it’s too soon for signs like that isn’t it?

I don’t think BBT is a reliable indicator either until period is due, from what I’ve read?

@FlakyAquaQuoter Exactly!! It's mad. Three of my friends got pregnant the very first time they tried.. I'm like... how? 😂

Literally exactly same!!! Three were first time and one was second.. they never even checked ovulation ect. It baffles me!!

My temps are so weird this cycle.. just keep going up. Which normally they kinda plateau.. wonder if I’m get ill.. attached chart below!

I find the whole process a little wild. As teenagers in school, we are told that if we so much as sniff a man, we will be pregnant. Here we are, checking temperatures, ovulation sticks, and in my case, a crap ton of artificial hormones in various forms. 😂

My BBT dropped a lot this morning 🤔 Way too early for a mythical implantation dip, but Google tells me there's a secondary estrogen surge around 4dpo which can lower BBT briefly. That made me feel better as I was a bit worried I didn't ovulate or something! Why is TTC a science experiment ffs? 😂😂

@FlakyAquaQuoter thank you! That’s reassuring to hear! Defo feeling more positive than earlier.

@FlakyAquaQuoter and @KT199 can’t wait for you both to start testing 😂 like @CatLady93 I will be living through you both. It’s so exciting!

@KT199 For me it doesn’t seem to matter how busy I am, I still think about it a lot! But I am trying to stay focused on my daughter and work…and not symptom spot😂

Does anyone else find reading other BFP posts so addictive😂

@KT199 - Looks like we are at the same stage and will both aim to hold out until Tuesday!! Not too long now... even if it does feel like forever and a day away.

Normally the weekends fly by and before I know it I’m getting up for work on a Monday morning, however I feel like when I’m waiting test time stops moving! 😂 but technically.. I am closer to 7DPO now than being 6 as the time asleep doesn’t count and I’ll be in bed in a few hours 🤣

How do you keep yourself distracted in your wait?
