Hey ladies, first day of the dreaded tww I'm praying it goes quickly! Anyone else testing around April 4th?

AF arrived tonight :-(
Maybe next month. Gonna try the different approach next of 3 times a week instead of sticking to the week of ovulation. fingers crossed for you all x

littlemimosa · 31/03/2017 21:20

Really sorry Stef:( Glad to hear you're looking ahead to your next cycle and making a plan though. I think that's the right way to approach this.
I think my AF is on the way too. I just feel it. My FRERs arrived today but I've lost my nerve to test. Think I'd rather just let my cycle run its course and look forward to the next try. Bfns are too disheartening.
Good luck Rhi for tomorrow! Really hope it's good news for you.
Lisara I'm with you on not testing.
Jords, how are you? Hope things ok with you.

lisara79 · 31/03/2017 21:24

Good luck next cycle Stef... Probably be joining you in the wait again in a few weeks... Mimosa... we'll hang on til the end together :)... Rhi... we'll be waiting in the morning!

Hi guys, took a cheapie this morning and bfn which I'm feeling crap about but Af isn't due till Sunday earliest or Tuesday latest so fingers crossed! My bfp didn't show up until the day before Af was due last time but I feel like I'm out already. When Af does show at least she shows early morning so I won't be waiting all day. Got one cheapie left might use that Sunday and wait till Monday to by some more tests if she hasn't come by then

You feeling any symptoms lisara?

OP posts:
lisara79 · 31/03/2017 23:04

Just the usual af symptoms really.... sore boobs that come and go, lower back pain and moodiness (I got tearful seeing an ambulance with its sirens on earlier... I mean... wtaf (please excuse the implied bad language))... I have had some sleep issues and thirstyness that are unusual but not enough to make me think anything... I go from thinking it's possible to telling myself to stop being so stupid and you're just going to be disappointed from minute to minute... I'm definitely airing towards the no... especially as the pain in my boobs has really lessened as af date approaches... what about you?

Jords0105 · 31/03/2017 23:16

Yeah I know what you mean I keep thinking hmm maybe but then I tell myself to stop being so stupid it's gonna be like every month. I think even if I do get pregnant it won't be happy for me like it's meant to be because after my mmc I don't want to step foot in another ultrasound room I'll be worrying all the way through but hopefully it will be worth it. I'm trying to tell myself it was only a one off but who knows.. I've had trouble sleeping all week I'm so tired but I wake up every hour! And just little twinges in my stomach but that could be nothing but for me the less symptoms the better

OP posts:
lisara79 · 31/03/2017 23:27

It's hard anyway but having that memory of the mmc must make it harder... this would be my first official pregnancy. I had a very early chemical pregnancy when i was much younger but that was an accident (and a blessing in a very painful disguise it turns out)... I think if I ever get a bfp I'll worry my way through the entire pregnancy... my age, my weight all give me a higher risk of miscarriage... I'm looking weight but it's slow and I'm not going to get any younger so, we'll, ive got to go for it.

why oh why does the 2ww have to happen while hormones are running wild.... I swear that's half the problem.

I think the hardest thing for me is the fact that I had no idea until I got to the scan and baby had already passed 3 week before. I should of known cos all my symptoms went but I thought that was just normal. I keep looking at the cheapies from last night thinking I can see lines I've either got line eye or there evaps. Annoying me even more not knowing exactly which day afs due!

OP posts:
lisara79 · 01/04/2017 00:13

I had a friend who went through something similar... would you consider a paid for early scan this/next time? Maybe just give it a few days to see what happens and then do another with fmu.... x

BFN...didn't 'feel' pg so not too disappointed. Just gotta wait for AF now. Going on a shopping trip today and will have Winetonight. Good luck jords

littlemimosa · 01/04/2017 06:59

Rhi I'm really sorry:( you treat yourself today and try to look ahead and think you're just getting closer each month to holding your bubba.
How long have you been ttc?

RhiBee29 · 01/04/2017 07:48

This is only our first proper cycle TTC last month we weren't really thinking about it just dtd unprotected. DH is disappointed as we caught first cycle last time so he's questioning his swimmers Grin

There's still time for you!

xStefx · 01/04/2017 09:59

Can I ask all your thoughts if you have any on this. People always say the stress of trying is what holds up catching . However , I'm not saying I don't believe this it's just I caught first time with my dd and first time with the miscarriage and ectopic pregnancies and was " trying" .
What do you think changes ? Is it age or do you think a bit of stress or present lifestyle ? X

xStefx · 01/04/2017 10:00

Sorry to hear your af showed up jords :-( xx

Jords0105 · 01/04/2017 11:21

Thanks stef, I knew it was coming I'm just more confused why it's come early! That's never happened before. Do you think my cycles might be trying to regulate back to 28? They used to be 28 and went to 30 after my Mc xx
