Page 6 | TWW Anyone?

MrsOverthinker25 · 2025-08-14T14:40:44+00:00

Anyone want to join me on the TWW? Currently 6dpo and it’s feeling like *forever! * I have had the occasional shooting pain in my boobs, they feel bigger and had cramps/twinges on and off for the last 2 days. My temp took a huge dive below the cover line yesterday but it’s back up to just above cover line today! Come and join in x

@MrsOverthinker25 where did you get your aspirin from and what dosage was it? Just read a bit and thinking it can't do any harm now i'm on CD1. Just had a good cry at this period starting. Why is it so hard :(

ThatNimbleOP · 25/02/2026 11:48

@MrsOverthinker25 so think my period is getting into full swing. Some actual blood today but still passing bits of tissue (sorry TMI), speaking to EPU today to check that's okay! So plus...seemed to ovulate on CD16 (the first rise) as period is coming on my usual 13DPO...minus, not pregnant :(

Was hoping to be the unicorn that caught on the first ovulation. My temps were so all over the place though, not sure how that could have sustained pregnancy! Or maybe something caught and failed as had some strong symptoms mid-cycle but probably just progesterone.

Hope you get some good news, keep me in the loop! I'll just be watching and waiting till my next ovulation now :/

@ThatNimbleOP ohh nooo 🥺 sorry to hear that. The only positive about AF possibly being en route is the fact you can relax for a couple of weeks now, allow your body to reset and concentrate on the next cycle 🥰 yes it must be great having regular cycles 🤣 mine haven’t been too bad but deffo still longer than the average persons, but I do have PCOS so I just have to suck it up lol!

Now you mention it, I did read a thread before where a lady didn’t have 3 consecutive temp rises to confirm ovulation and she ended up pregnant! So I guess it isn’t 100% reliable tbf, which is V annoying! 😒 yes I temp using my Oura ring, I find that way more reliable than my Apple Watch! But yes we did cover every day so fingers crossed!! xx

@Starryxx
Let us know how you get on, fingers crossed for you! Hopefully you will know within the next couple of days what’s going on, so frustrating when you’re getting negative tests and no period etc. Try not to stress (easier said than done) xx

@MrsOverthinker25 my temp dropped massively to well below cover line! Like it does day before period so with the spotting I’m expecting it very soon…which fits more with me being 11DPO! No OPKs, yeah they were very confusing and I don’t really use them anymore do FAM and temping to confirm.

Oh 3DPO! Yeah can defo ovulate 2 days after peak. Do you temp then if using natural cycles? I’ve read recently that even temping can be unreliable. Exact ovulation is so hard to pinpoint unless you have a scan! I guess just covering all bases when you think you’re ovulating should do the trick haha.

This miscarriage has made me realise how grateful I am for consistent cycles, the stress of uncertainty around ovulation is more stressful then negative tests I think ahah. Hope things go back to normal soon!

MrsOverthinker25 · 24/02/2026 12:07

@ThatNimbleOP oh yeah! How annoying. I would maybe be inclined to agree with FF, which is annoying and pushes you back a few days! I guess you wouldnt have been able to take OPK’s this cycle either as pregnancy hormones can make them appear positive can’t they. Well, at least either way you don’t have too much longer to wait 🥰

I’m good thank you! Natural cycles pushed me back a day today making me 3DPO. Meaning I ovulated 2 days after my peak, which I have read is pretty normal as my tests were still strong the day after my peak! but we shall see, really hoping this baby aspirin works 🤣🤞

@Starryxx oh how strange, are you normally late? Maybe retest if you haven’t since Saturday as sometimes the HCG takes a while to build up? Do you have any conditions like PCOS or endometriosis etc? Xx

not usually, im having quite watery thin light pink spotting currently. i probably will retest soon not looking forward to it :/ i was told from a scan that it looked like i had pcos then was re-checked months later and was told nothing indicated pcos everything looked fine but pcos and endo does run in the family (mum and sisters) so not entirely sure! x

no af currently 4th day late , bfn on Saturday haven’t retested, had some more browny red coloured cm yesterday. i’ve woken up this morning with my left side of my stomach feeling bruised (as if someone’s kicked/punched me all night!) and the pain worsens when coughing or moving :/

ThatNimbleOP · 23/02/2026 18:36

@MrsOverthinker25 hey!

Well this has been weirdest cycle ever but to be expected. I don’t know what DPO I am truly as fertility friend moved crosshairs back. I’m either 11 or 8DPO…have had spotting last two nights which I never get in luteal, guessing it’s hormone instability.

Still getting faint positives on pregnancy tests which is hard. I’ve had cramps, very sore boobs but it’s all an illusion after miscarriage!

How are you feeling? Also attached my temps if anyone would like to guess what DPO I am haha.

@ThatNimbleOP hey, how are you getting on? What kinda symptoms are you having? Keeping my fingers crossed for you! So jealous you’re nearly through your TWW haha!

@NatalieSF thank you so much ☺️ I am 3dpo today. Just took my baby aspirin as I started it today 🤞xx

OP posts:

NatalieSF · 19/02/2026 21:15

@ThatNimbleOPim so sorry to hear of your loss ♥️ sending love, I'm glad your remaining positive and I send you so much baby dust for your tww

@MrsOverthinker25Glad to hear about your peak! Good luck for your tww too, crossing everything for you 🤞🏼

@Starryxxive also never had implantation bleeding so can't really help but could be promising depending on where you are in your cycle, good luck for testing 🤞🏼 x

ThatNimbleOP · 19/02/2026 15:33

@Starryxx agree! Give us some days and we'll be able to help :D I guess if near period it could just be bleeding before but in the middle of 2WW more promising?

@MrsOverthinker25 oh exciting!! Yes get to it...ah okay i'm quite away ahead then so i'll be done in a 5-6 days i guess haha. Yeah i've heard this too. I have to say i've some CRAZY symptoms this luteal phase. No idea if pregnancy related, think it's just residual hormonal stuff from miscarriage being triggered by the progesterone again. The cramps were bizarre though, i nearly went to A&E!

Fingers crossed for you all <3

@ThatNimbleOP I have just had my strongest peak ever.. I can’t believe how dark it is 🤣 so tomorrow I will be 1dpo so I shall start them at 3dpo 🥰 yess come and join me! I ordered mine from eBay as none of the stores near me had them weirdly?!

I can’t say I blame you jumping straight back in, I would do the same. Plus I think you’re probs even more prone to catching aren’t you following a miscarriage, I’m sure I read that somewhere? Hopefully anyways 🥰 fingers crossed.

@Starryxx hey! How many DPO are you? Personally for me I’ve never had implantation bleeding so I’m probs not the best person to ask annoyingly 😩 fingers crossed it’s good news for you! Xx

Starryxx · 19/02/2026 13:18

Hiya all!

Has anyone heard of any stories like this before?

I feel like my body is 100% giving me false hope as this morning I had some fresh blood when I went to the loo first thing, so assumed my period was starting (gutted :/) but since then my pad has been completely dry 🤣 just on my lunch break and ive got some really light scanty pink cm, cant get a test until tomorrow so looks like I’ll be testing on Saturday x

ThatNimbleOP · 19/02/2026 13:15

@MrsOverthinker25 ah okay, yeah guess low dose can't do any harm! Where are you in your cycle now, 3DPO? Maybe i'll join you haha! God this is all such a long slog to get pregnant right...we started in October 2024 what the hell! A whole lifetime ago...

Yeah TWW! Miscarriage only finished 1st Feb. Maybe we should have waited but found trying again quite healing. Also i figured if you're ovulating, your bodies' ready :)

So we're very close in days, we can hand hold! <3

@Kirsty198511 hey, interesting! I think I’m deffo gonna do it. I had my peak today so I have them ready and waiting 🤣🤣 hope you’re okay!

@ThatNimbleOP 1 previous miscarriage and 1 chemical so that’s why I’m even more inclined to try.
It’s a very low dose so I can’t imagine anything bad can come from it as long as I stop prior to my period arriving.
Oooh you’re in the TWW, exciting!! Hopefully the cramps are a good sign - rooting for you and this cycle 🥰xx

OP posts:

ThatNimbleOP · 19/02/2026 13:02

@MrsOverthinker25 I think they recommend this for people with multiple losses or implantation failure, have you had confirmed either? I would run past healthcare provider before taking personally (but I’m a science nerd and hypochondriac haha).

Hope everyone okay? I’m now 6/7DPO after my missed miscarriage, ovulated very soon after which I was surprised about! Had excruciating cramps last night and this morning so bit concerned but let’s see.

xx

Kirsty198511 · 19/02/2026 10:45

@MrsOverthinker25hope you’re well x

Kirsty198511 · 19/02/2026 10:45

@MrsOverthinker25hello, all good my end. Yes I took baby aspirin. I think it definitely helped me x

MrsOverthinker25 · 19/02/2026 10:39

Hey all, hope you’re all doing okay. Has anyone ever taken baby aspirin before? Debating it this cycle as I have heard it can be good to take from 3dpo in order to help implantation? Xx

Thanks all. Feeling better today, at least we had answers. Kept getting fibbed off as normal bleeding so glad to not be in limbo. Onwards and upwards, at least I got pregnant. Only trying to see the positives 😃 See you here on the next 2WW whenever that may be!

Aww bless you. Good of you to remain positive, it really does help ❤️ glad you are feeling better.

I am not due to ovulate yet but waiting patiently. Will you jump straight back in or are you going to take a break? Xx

Hey lovely ladies.

Just wanted to update. I had a scan last Tuesday as started brown spottting. Saw babies heartbeat but then started spotting red this week. They confirmed my lil bub stopped growing last week…beyond devastated. Body still things I’m pregnant I think as still just spotting really.

Sorry not to bring positive news but thought I’d share. Hope you’re all well xx

Hello lovely! Oh my goodness. I am so so sorry to hear that. You poor thing, I am so gutted for you and your family 😢😢 I have no words. I am sending you so much love, please look after yourself ❤️ always here if you need to vent/chat xx

@MrsOverthinker25 doing well here but again, no scan yet, so who knows really. I’m 7wks5 now and SO sick it’s untrue…think that’s why I’ve lessened the worry as I’m focused on that now haha.

Sorry to hear you’re sick and started spotting. Keep doing nice things for yourself and trust that it will happen, some way 😃

@Kirsty198511 16 weeks, wow! Glad to hear you’re progressing well. Aw how lovely ❤️
