Hey all
My tww starts again today. 4th cycle. Just had 2 full days of positive opks and lots of bd with dh.

So let the crazy symptom spotting begin and the madness that is the tww.

Anyone else in the tww - hoping to hear lots of bfp stories xx

I thought I read it was (and sort if fits with hormone changes and body temperature changes). But maybe I dreamed that too?! I'm at work again now, off to a bad start, reading this not emails :)

loopylou1984 · 05/11/2014 08:47

Well I always have vivid dreams so am now wondering how bad they could get if/when I'm pg!
Lol. I'm not at work yet, but will most probably check this at some point during the day! X

Morning ladies,
Sam, sucks that you have to wait another 10 days, must feel like a life time.
CD29 here and expecting AF any day now. Will test on Saturday if no AF by then.

Morning ladies. Sam .... How you doing? Any sign of af/bfp.
I've carried on with the nausea all day yesterday and I'm still exhausted.
So I took a frer this morning and if I look closely I'm sure I can see the faintest of faint lines. Im not getting my hopes up though as still only 9dpo. I don't have anymore frer left but have some internet cheapies so I will test again in a few days x

I had the worst af cramps last night and felt sure my wait would be over this morning, but still nothing yet. I haven't poas again, to be honest I'm scared to as I just don't want to see another bfn.

Nausea, tiredness and faint bfp sound like excellent signs to me! Fx for you!!

loopylou1984 · 05/11/2014 12:03

April - fx for you too Smile

Mumwannabe82 · 05/11/2014 18:20

Hi ladies hope everyone is OK in the tww xx good luck to anyone testing soon XXX

Only 5dpo here so not much happening, earliest I can test is Sunday because I have 12 LP but don't really want to because I'm off to my sisters for a few days without bf and wouldn't want to get a BFP then leave him to celebrate on his own lololol

HairStylistToBoris · 05/11/2014 18:58

Wow hopefully and April sounding exciting. Who know nausia would be such a happy event?!! I have severe lower back ache. I get this sometimes so not unusual.
My DH us away next week when I want to test. WWYD? Test anyhow and call with the news? Wait for his return? Test and hold the news? Gah. I don't think I am PG - but incase...

loopylou1984 · 05/11/2014 19:30

Hair - I don't think I could wait so would probably say test and tell him when he gets back Grin

CrazyCatMomma · 05/11/2014 20:08

Hiya Aprilray, our BFP due dates are v similar, I'm on CD28, avg cycle length 27 days. Bought 2x FRER (couldn't believe the price!!) but will try to hold off POAS for a few days..

NoArmaniNoPunani · 05/11/2014 20:22

We are at the same CD mumwannabe. I'm feeling so tired that I'm wondering if that's a sign. Or am I just going crazy and it's way too early for signs.

hopefull2424 · 06/11/2014 05:36

Hiya all. Got a question for you. So my nausea is getting really quite bad now. It woke me in the night and I was up for almost an hour with it. But I'm thinking that if and it's a big of I were pg surely the symptoms wouldn't be this bad yet. I wasnt even sick when pg with my ds and was only sick once with my dd. Could I just have a tummy bug? Xx

loopylou1984 · 06/11/2014 06:56

Hi hopeful

It does sound early for such extreme symptoms, but every pregnancy is different (so they say) so it's possible.

If it was a bug I would have thought you'd have been sick by now?

HairStylistToBoris · 06/11/2014 07:34

Hopeful - it does sound early and extreme but not impossible I guess. Has anyone around you had a sickness issue? These things are often quite infectious? Keep fluids going. X

Figfog · 06/11/2014 07:43

I'll join in too if that's ok. My cycles are a bit irregular since stopping BF but I estimate I am now in my TWW and will aim to test next Sunday if nothing by then.

I am trying not to be too obsessive about it as it just makes me miserable really!

Good luck to everyone else Smile

HeavenKnowsImMiserableNow · 06/11/2014 08:03

Hi all,

We're on our 11th month of ttc and 1st cycle following a mc in September. I'm on 8dpo, the cramps have started (they feel like pregnancy rather than af ones) and had a spot of nausea last night when dh was cooking greasy, meaty sausages (familar feeling from last time). I'm feeling pretty similar to last time I was pg, really hope my mind's not playing tricks on me and I get a BFP when I poas on Saturday morning (otherwise I'm probably going to a right cow-bag this weekend!)

hopefull2424 · 06/11/2014 08:25

I took another internet cheapie this morning and I can see a faint line. Still a few days from afso will test again in a day or so but hopefully that will explain the nausea x

OP posts:
loopylou1984 · 06/11/2014 08:39

Hopefull it sounds like good news to me!!!! Xx

Aprilray · 06/11/2014 11:36

Ooh, a line is a line Hopefull! Hope you get a darker one is a few days.

Hi CrazyCatMomma, sounds promising if you are late. I am on CD30 now (last two cycles were 30 days so officially late) have been temping and usually my temps go down a day or two before AF but they are still high. Trying not to get my hopes up but it's hard not to.

Hi Heaven, sorry to hear about your mc in September. I am also on cycle 11 (ttc #1) I am planning to POAS on Saturday too (would probably wait a bit longer but due to go on a night out).

Sam, can't believe you are still stuck in limbo. How are you coping?

loopylou1984 · 06/11/2014 12:25

Hi April

Not sure coping is the right word...

It's such an emotional roller coaster, I'm going from hopeful that as af hasn't arrived I could still be pg to fear that if I'm not gp then something is wrong (and my regular cycles were all I was sure of before this after 12 months of trying). It's also the fact that I should have ovd again by now so feel like I'm wasting a month of trying Hmm
Had someone ask 'are you going to be next' today too and it took all my strength not to burst in to tears.

On a happier note, how are you doing? X

Aprilray · 06/11/2014 12:49

Ah, bless you. It's awful when people ask things like that, I'm sure they mean well but if only they knew!!! It definitely gets much harder the longer you've been trying. Hopefully neither of us has to go through another month of trying.
I am ok, terrified of taking my temp in the morning and seeing that it has dipped but trying to brace myself. Cycles have ranged from 30-33 days since ttc so could just be late but desperately hoping that this is my month! FX!!

Joey0805 · 06/11/2014 13:22

Good luck Sam, April and Hopeful! All sounding so promising...

My TWW is not over! Now 15DPO and no sign of AF coming...(but i did tests at 10 and 13 DPO that we're negative and don't want to see another BFN so holding off from testing again as pretty certain I'm not pregnant)

NoArmaniNoPunani · 06/11/2014 14:35

Arr I've got spotting on CD18. Never had that before :(

loopylou1984 · 06/11/2014 16:27

Thanks Joey.

NoArmani - spotting could be a really good sign :). Eek, fingers crossed for you! X

loopylou1984 · 06/11/2014 16:29

April, I hope we don't.
Although after so many bfns I'm not sure how I could possibly be pg.
It's been the longest day ever, following a pregnancy announcement I have been asked more than once when I'm going to have a baby... I don't even know what to say any more!
