Getting through the TWW - 6DPO!

Hello,

Just starting a thread to keep my mind busy and see if anyone else is in a similar boat!
TTC our second (DD was a complete accident and she's just turned 4 so it feels like the right time to try for a sibling).

This is our third cycle but first of trying using OPK's and got my peak on 21st with predicted ovulation on 22nd (I actually got my peak a few days earlier than my other tracking app predicted so thinking I've probably missed my ovulation the last two cycles). DTD on 21st and 23rd which I'm hoping will have been enough as Christmas has kept us busy and genuinely not had the energy 🤣

Anyone else currently making their way through the dreaded TWW? I'm trying not to symptom spot or test early this cycle as I definitely got caught up in it last month which was beyond disappointing when AF arrived.

Sending positive vibes to anyone else trying this cycle!

I got my digital positive this evening! 🎉

Amazing!! So pleased for you 🥰

I haven't had any symptoms until today (12dpo) and now I've had noticeable tiredness, my boobs are sore and a bit of lower back ache which could all quite easily be indicators that AF on the way. We'll see what next week brings though!

9dpo - foolishly tested early and got a negative. Still no signs of AF so hoping I've just tested too soon

Congrats @OrangeRainbow and @ThisOrangeCat!

AF is due on Monday but I'm holding off from any early testing - keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP

Keeping everything crossed for you ❤️

Todays progression! Eek. Trying not to get my hopes up though. AF is due on Monday.

Congratulations @OrangeRainbow!

I've just tested again at 11dpo and finally got a reasonably dark line. Crossing everything for all of us

@Lcc5261 @RRB thanks both fingers crossed!! 🤞

I've just tested again and thought I could see a very very faint line, but don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me!!

100% there is a line there. It’s faint but there is definitely HCG in your urine. Congratulations 🥳❤️ x

Lcc5261 · 01/01/2025 15:36

Looks like a positive to me!

I haven't tested yet but AF is due next Monday so still a few days to go. The waiting is torture! No symptoms to report which makes me think BFP is unlikely this month - how is everyone else?

The cramps are still going strong on and off today.

How are the cramps now?

RRB · 01/01/2025 13:37

Still negative- no AF

It’s tough, I don’t know if/when I ovulated (despite testing and tracking, I have an erratic, long cycle) but because of that it’s keeping me holding out hope that there’s a chance.

Every negative test is crappy.

Most likely somewhere between 8-12 DPO

AudreyJL · 01/01/2025 12:01

AF arrived today, one day early. Saved me from testing I guess. A bit gutted but it'll happen when it happens I suppose. Onwards and upwards.

OrangeRainbow · 01/01/2025 10:43

How is everyone getting on?

I think I'm 10 or 11 dpo today.

I've tested the last 3 days but all negative sadly :(

I've experienced this too and thought I was losing my mind as it was far too early but the symptoms felt were so real!

I'm only 4dpo and Idk if it's cause I'm ill I have these symptoms or im over analyzing it all, I have sore nipples not overly sore but noriceab, lower back pain also cramping and heavy sensation in lower pelvis, far to early to be implantation so unsure what's going on

I've experienced this too and thought I was losing my mind as it was far too early but the symptoms felt were so real!
