Hi everybody! I was originally active on another thread but can't keep up far too many messages [hard to get a word in] and the most people seem to be way further in their tww. As for me 32 ttc cycle #5 after chemical pregnancy in March..this will be 3rd and last baby..CD 19 today 4 DPO fingers crossed....who else is a similar dpo/point in their cycle? feel very lonely at the moment and the tww is always soo hard..😕

@Ec2808I had a stretching/pulling sensation at 6 and 7dpo and extreme fatigue at 8dpo but that’s been about it tbh

HansBanans · 08/07/2025 05:45

@Snail4Lyfe1991are you taking your temp at the same time each day?

HansBanans · 08/07/2025 05:43

BFN for me this morning at 10dpo ☹️

Snail4Lyfe1991 · 08/07/2025 02:33

Can anyone help me decipher my BBT & LH tests?? The fermometer app is saying it is confirming my ovulation happened on 7/2 from my BBT (so I MAAYYY be in my TWW..?) however I feel like I haven’t had a “true” LH peak yet according to my LH strips. this is my first month truly tracking all of this so closely so if someone can please help me.

Howtonamechange · 07/07/2025 23:18

Can I join? I'm on day 1 po. But I'm going by dates rather than tests. I find the tww so difficult and my imagination goes crazy symptom spotting even though logically I know that's it's unlikely to have symptoms so soon.

@PearOpalhe has no problem with the tracking side of things because since the loss he knows it gives me peace of mind knowing where i am in my cycle plus cycle was off for a couple of months..i lnow i’ve spent soo much on tests already i just got the big pack of premoms ovulation + hcg tests and got a couple of frers if i ever see anything on the cheapies 🤞🏻
understandable! Really hope you get your bfp got my fingers and toes crossed ! ✨✨

@PearOpalthat’s brilliant dh kind of annoys me sometimes regarding ttc 🤣 it’s soo much easier for them I find because they don’t have to deal with the stress and the hormones and the testing and temping 🤣 which cheapies did you get? I was a 26-27 cycle before my chemical then it changes for a couple of months with later ovulation about 33 day cycles with longer periods 😭 this cycle is more normal range because got my lh peak on cd14 soo feeling positive for this cycle think my body is slowly getting back to normal 🤞🏻🤞🏻
i think i’m going to start on Wednesday because i just can’t wait 🤣🤣 will be 6-7 dpo then i know super early but i have cheapies too and just super impatient 🤣

haha yes they certainly can be a bit of a pain. Mine tends to be weirdly in synch with where I am without tracking so I’ve learned to leave well enough alone. I finally caved and bought the wondfos - prior I was just buying FRER and CB thinking this would happen ASAP and it wouldn’t be a big investment. Sorry to hear about your chemical but glad that things are getting back to what’s normal for you. 0% judgement for testing early. I’m planning to do the same because DH will be out of town soon so if I can catch anything early I want to be able to tell him in person

PearOpal · 07/07/2025 20:18

@Kittybway sending baby dust your way - it can be so frustrating when AF decided she wants to work on her own schedule but you never know this could be your BFP - sometimes it takes a while to show depending on the test your using and when you ovulated. Maybe that CD17 surge has bumped you back a bit?

@JupiterDaze fingers crossed you’re 3/3 on the early BFPs. I had no idea the variation in when people find out until I started reading forums. I’ve never had a BFP so I’ve got no clue where I fall but I imagine it feels nice knowing you tend to fall on the early side!

@HansBanans well done you for waiting this long to test! Are you planning on holding off until AF is late or are you thinking of resting sometime this week?

@JupiterDazedo you wear it on your inner wrist? I find it’s more accurate that way and clearly see the shift in temperature after ovulation ☺️ for me it’s post ovulation only 4-5 dpo and already struggling here 8/9 dpo will be end of the week for me and i just can’t take it anymore already 🤣 i know how you feel though got a faint but clear positive at 10dpo with dd but didn’t test on 8/9 dpo then 🤣

OP posts:

PearOpal · 07/07/2025 19:38

Haha I feel that in my soul - the temptation to test is permanently strong. I finally caved and bought some cheapies so I can be a crazy tester without breaking the bank. I ovulated CD 13 this cycle, I'm normally CD11 with a 26-27 day cycle so I'm still over that 10 day mark. How long are your cycles generally? When is everyone thinking of testing (or hoping to hold off until)?

My DH chooses not to complain about the thermometer in exchange for blissful ignorance regarding when its time to DTD. We DTD frequently enough that I don't really need to highlight it but he knows it makes me feel better to have a good grasp on what my body is doing when - this TTC thing is far more work than anyone ever warns you about.

JupiterDaze · 07/07/2025 19:37

@Ec2808 yeah Apple Watch too! My wrist temperature has been very up and down the past week though so I don’t know how accurate it is 😅 hoping to see a bigger increase tomorrow.

The first half of the TWW goes sooo slow. I think I might first test on Sunday or next Monday. I’ve always got BFP very early, 8 and 9dpo for both my girls so I won’t be able to wait longer than that 😂

@PearOpalwelcome! 🥰 im the same either 4/5 dpo based off of lh and bbt, already itching to test even though it’s way too early 🤣 what day did you ovulate and when is af due? Hubby couldn’t stand the sound so had to find a solution 🤣🤣 baby dust to you too ❤️❤️

OP posts:

PearOpal · 07/07/2025 19:19

Hi, I'd like to join too. CurrentlyTTC #1 and DPO4 so also in the dreaded TWW. Trying not to lose my mind - had a big trip right when I was set to ovulate so looks like I ovulated 2 days later then normal but I usually ovulate on the earlier end in my cycle so I should hopefully have a long enough luteal phase. I use inito to track hormones and a mouth thermometer to track BBT, @Ec2808 the beeping is by farrrr the most annoying thing especially on the weekends but for now I'm willing to endure. Sending baby dust to all!

Ec2808 · 07/07/2025 18:37

@Kittybwayi did that one month but dh got annoyed with the beeping at 6am 🤣 so had to find a different solution 🤣 the thermometer is the most accurate you place it under your tongue first thing when you wake up preferably the same time every morning before getting up or moving too much 👍🏻☺️

OP posts:

Kittybway · 07/07/2025 18:34

I didn't realise you could measure those things on a fitness watch! Iv got an under the tongue thermometer but my last 3 days tenps vary almost an entire degree so not sure if I'm doing that wrong while I'm half asleep 😂

Best of luck to everyone!
Im 3 DPO (I think as not been tracking just using apps and symptoms so far). Trying for my second with same partner, cycle 4 of proper trying. Like others mentioning I also fell pregnant first cycle my daughter - but that was 9 years ago now!

GreenApple121 · 07/07/2025 18:15
