Page 8 | 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 of course! I can totally imagine....really hope it goes well.

I've had some dizziness, pulling, cramping etc. on my right side where i ovulated but kind of feels same as PMS. More tired.

I've been disappointed SO much....just cannot get excited. Just remembering the facts. 3 positive tests 10DPO (although faint), minute brown spotting and a temp raise. If it's not a baby then it's been a cruel month aha.

@ThatNimbleOP this is my first cycle taking them so we shall see, I am not holding my breath lol. I think in the new year I will be going to the doctors and seeking for assistance for it yeah, it’s frustrating to say the least!

Oooh that’s good! Do you feel any different in yourself at all? Xx

@MrsOverthinker25 oh yes i remember you saying! Have they helped? Have you asked about ovulation induction medications too like letrozole to regularise?

I can totally imagine. When i was B'fing my cycles were all over the place. It was very stressful/frustrating.

So a small update! My temp has shot back up this morning 12DPO, period is due tomorrow morning. My temp never goes up so praying this is another good sign....still not testing until Weds though (if AF doesn't come!)

@MrsOverthinker25 oh sorry to hear that! Yes must be the hormones…I’ve heard of soy isoflavines but got warned off them as cycles were regular. They can act as destroyed replacement right - what are you taking them for?

@Kirsty198511 oh exciting!! I’m sure all will be absolutely well. Keep us updated cx

Thank you 🥹 Yes deffo don’t take them if you’re regular! I am not due to my PCOS.. I was only ever regular for a few months after my miscarriage. I’m just hoping it brings my ovulation forward, otherwise it’s such a long wait trying again after an unsuccessful cycle! Xx

My energy levels have been so low but seem to be picking up slightly now. 12 week scan on Wednesday which I’m not sure if I’m dreading or excited about, a mixture of both I guess. x

Kirsty198511 · 14/12/2025 21:44

@ThatNimbleOPI hope it works out for you 🙏🏻 xx

@ThatNimbleOP 10dpo is still good to be fair 🤣 at least you don’t have much longer to wait now! Woohoo. Yes exactly, you can let your hair down, have a drink and relax ready for your next cycle! I am really debating wrapping a baby blanket and putting it under our tree.. I have heard it’s good luck to 🤣

lets hope the spotting now stays away!

well, this period was horrendous becuase of the CP but I’m slowly getting over the worst of it. I have one more day of taking soy isoflavones so im Intrigued to see if this makes a difference to my cycle. Have you ever tried them? Xx

ThatNimbleOP · 14/12/2025 21:18

@MrsOverthinker25!! I know exactly what you mean!!

Haha well I did test at 10DPO because I thought this is no way my month so haven’t been THAT good. With my first I waited till day of missed period but it was the first month trying so had a lot more patience 🤣

Positives if it’s negative are being able to relax over Crimbo so we will see ☺️

If no period by Wednesday I will test! Brown spotting seems to have stopped 🤞

How are you all getting on anyway with your journeys!

@MrsOverthinker25 yes it’s definitely a very strange sign!! I just can’t believe how pessimistic I am. I think month after month of negatives make you think it’s never going to happen…or it can’t!

My partner doesn’t want to either so it’s two people’s will power 🤣 I’m also going to stop looking at my temps as that’s added stress.

Not long to go…!

Yes I know, it’s ridiculous isn’t it! It really baffles me how so many babies have came from one night stands lol! How can I BD most days when fertile and not conceive yet a one night fumble and boom.. they’re pregnant! 🤣🤣

Yes not long to go at all!! It’s the worst two week wait ever and feels like forever! My partner always says “just wait until you are due on your period to test” and I’m like NOPE BYE 🤣🤣 I’m the worst so fair play to you both! Xx

I have started soy isoflavones this cycle! I am hoping it regulates my ovulation and does wonders! Xx

Oh my.. that does sound positive especially if you never usually get it and had it with a previous pregnancy!
awww I hope it’s good news for you both, that would be amazing. It’s so disheartening seeing a negative test so I do understand why you’re so reluctant to test. You’re a super woman for not testing! 🤣

I’m keeping everything crossed! Tuesday is not far away at all! Xx

@ThatNimbleOP I'm also keeping you in my prayers.

ThatNimbleOP · 14/12/2025 19:37

@MrsOverthinker25 thanks for being so positive too. I’m really really praying. Have had constant on and off dragging and twinges on my right side which I ovulated from. Urgh please be it. A wonderful Christmas present indeed

ThatNimbleOP · 14/12/2025 19:34

@MrsOverthinker25 that’s reassuring! So just noticed a very teeny tiny bit of brown blood in my (TMI) discharge…so faint like a shadow of the off white. Is this a good sign, implantation?

I never ever spot normally….i had brown discharge on and off for 2 weeks with my first and had to do early pregnancy scan.

Its either a good sign or bad…me and my partner both don’t want to test haha.

Send me baby dust till Tuesday….

@MrsOverthinker25 i haven’t tested again, I’m too scared! My temp is on a very slight decline like it always does before period so I’m holding my breath. Surely rising progesterone would increase it?

Ive just got back and had another look and all three tests I did have a very clear (albeit faint) line like I’ve never had before and I did the tests properly!!

Im going to wait till my period now on Tuesday and see…if my temps were going up I’d test but they’ve knocked me off course.

To be honest I will never go by temps ever again, when I was pregnant back earlier this year, my temp was up and down, it dipped several times below the coverline and then remained elevated above the coverline pretty much from 16dpo. This recent chemical pregnancy my temps looked incredible and FF even detected a triphasic chart! Baffling. But I have seen BFP charts where BBT has dipped and then they had a BFP!

I would say it’s a good thing if you can still see a faint line on the old tests! 🤞 I pray this is good news for you! What a lovely way to end the year! But if not, pig out over Christmas, and start a fresh slate in January! It will happen ❤️ xx

Thanks guys!! I’m too scared to test tomorrow, we’re visiting family so if it’s negative I’ll be too upset I think.

Period due Tuesday so I’ll wait till we’re home Sunday night to test where I can overanalyse (and potentially cry) in private haha.

Its crazy how little faith I have in the result after so many months of disappointment!

Any update? I know what you mean, it’s so devastating 😢 I am keeping my fingers crossed for you! Xx

Hey ladies!

Hoping this is not sensitive, just want second opinion and had heart broken so many times with these tests.

Im 10DPO, second morning urine, test done properly and no dipping over the line haha.

Is this a BFP? I’m travelling this weekend so can’t buy a proper test till later!

I don’t trust these tests but third test in a row with a line.

Hey hun.
Ooooh I see it!! I feel like tomorrow the test is gonna be so much more obvious! Keep us updated.. fingers crossed for you!! ❤️

@J1644 sorry to be a downer! I get these about 4 days before my period, i think it can be the hormone cascade as your period arrives....but who knows, i guess it could go either way :)

Not long to go! Did you test?

J1644 · 08/12/2025 15:23

Has anyone had hot flushes as an early pregnancy symptom? I'm boiling this month! BBT is still well above baseline at 11 DPO.. will test tomorrow morning, but hoping these hot flushes are a good sign! The house is freezing and my cheeks are boiling!
