Any tww buddies??

[Jords0105]

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

Really sorry to hear AF arrived Jords:( hope you're ok. I would say yes it sounds like your body is trying to regulate your cycles after your mc. Try to get lots of rest and sleep. I read that your hormones do their regulating in your sleep. So in theory the more you sleep the better balanced they are. Hugs to you x

Stef that's a hard question to answer! I personally don't think age has as much to do with it as 'statistics' would have us believe. I think diet, lifestyle, environmental factors, stress levels etc have more to do with it. I conceived far far easier at 36 than I did in my early 30s. I was less stressed generally and had a much better diet and lifestyle. I know this is anecdotal but its true for me. I think you're only 33?

Aww... jords... sorry to hear AF came... I agree that it's probably your body adjusting... Stef, again, I agree with Mimosa, it probably does have more to do with stress than age - especially at 33... I think as you get late 30s and 40s age has it's part to play because of the quality of eggs etc but stress and lifestyle prob have just as much impact... the problem is that is varies from woman to woman and we're all so different. Rhi... it's still possible that it's early in your cycle so until af all is still possible. I'm still waiting... I'm just not sure when to expect af... It feels like it should be today and I think my luteral phase Is 14 days but my cycles have usually been about 30 days and if I was wrong about the day I ovulated... I could be due Tuesday... I keep thinking she's here but not yet... I usually come on in the evening anyway so we'll see... x

Bfn for me. I'm not due AF til Tuesday but at 12dpo I reckon the frer would've shown something if I was pregnant. Feeling a bit down tonight but I think that's more pms than anything else. How's everyone else tonight?

I've been a bitch all week, dp said I was gonna come on lol
Well I'm defo gonna try my new plan of 3 times a week this month , still taking my Agnes cactus too ( no idea if it's doing anything ) also , I might start back at My step class. When I was trying for dd I had recently joined an exercise class once a week so you never know the good endorphins ( unsure of spelling ) may help. Xx

So my App says I should test tomorrow - I'm really scared! I have had a few weird cramp feelings in my stomach and noticed my nipples have been more 'erect' than normal. Also have had a stich just to the left of my belly today.

I know it's silly but I really want to test in the AM but now I am feeling too scared too!!

Rose that sounds really promising!! Eek! 🤞🏼

I know what you mean Rosegold... I could test bit o don't want to... I think AF is on her way so don't want the disappointment of a BFN followed by AF.

Mimosa.... I still go with the "your not out until AF starts" idea x

ooh... something went wrong there... only posted once!

Thanks guys! I just need to stop being an idiot and just get up in the morning and POAS! I will keep you posted if not chickened out :)

Rose, good luck for tomorrow. You just gotta take a deep breath and do it!
Lisara, I usually wait for AF too. I don't know what has come over me this month lol. I hate seeing bfns too. I'm not going to buy anymore. That's part of my 'plan' for next month. Also part of my plan is to take Coq10 as its supposed to be great for fertilty especially if you're older (I'm nearly 41 eek).
Stef, have heard agnus castus is good for balancing hormones, wonder if I should try it. Three times a week sounds a good base-coverer!

Good luck Rose!

Thanks guys!! X

I might try the coq10 mimosa... they seem to be half price at Holland and Barrett... I'm 37 so "older" in comparative terms x

Lisara, I read about some studies done on older mice and how it rejuvenated their eggs to get them all up duffed! It's not cheap so if its half price grab some. Right hormone balancing sleep time ladies. Zzzzzz

sounds great mimosa... sleep well x

How did you get on Rose gold? How is everyone else doing....

Hey everyone. Hope you don't mind if I join?
TTC #1
Age: 30
Cd: 27
Cycle: 6
DH and I married last summer and were initially quite relaxed about the whole TTC thing, but as the months tick by the pressure seems to be building and I'm really hoping for that BFP this time round. I have quite a high stress job and get quite anxious about things. Tends to be worse during the 2ww and if there is no BFP this month I think I will have to address the stress issue. Apart from that it was a good effort from me and DH this month so fingers crossed. AF is due on Tuesday so will wait til then to POAS. Fx for you Rose. Hope we have some BFPs soon.

Hi blue , welcome :-)
Hope everyone has had a nice weekend. Af only lasts 2/3 days for me so have told dp 3 times a week is the new plan from Next week :-) see how we get on lol xx

welcome Blue.... stress really is a big issue... my job isn't really that stressful but the 2ww still causes mayhem... I'm really prone to hormonal emotionalness (I know that isn't a word) and that really doeant help me. Stef... good luck with your 3 times a week... I'm still waiting for AF but convinced it's now due tues and I miscalculated ovulation... waiting til then (so with you blue) but feeling it may come earlier - had a 20 minute crying fit while cleaning the house earlier... ridiculous!

Lisara, I balled my eyes out earlier watching princess dairies 2!! Something on it set me off lol if I hadn't had my period I would have been convinced I was pregnant, no idea what's wrong with me. I wonder if the Angus cactus is making me emotional lol xx

lol... stef.... I understand completely... luckily dp was out... my dogs just get very concerned when I cry... I think I'm giving them a nervous breakdown! for me, I don't look too far from PMT for me... I'm a hormonal mess on a monthly basis! lol.

Welcome Blue. I'm also due AF Tuesday but I'm 99% sure I'm not pregnant. Apart from my bfn I just 'feel' AF. I know. I've been pregnant three times before so just know really. I'm already planning ahead to next cycle. Main strategy is to sleep more, stress less and reeeelax lol. Going to try to exercise a bit more too.
Hi Stef and Lisara. I have to say I'm so glad it's not just me that's weepy and stroppy. Pms seems to get worse as I get older. I thought it was my age but maybe it's just all of us ha ha. Good luck Lisara for testing. We need another bfp on here. No pressure!

Good luck Rose! Just waiting on AF now, due Wednesday, usually I have pms by now even with the coil but I have none?! Wondering if my cycle is getting longer as I was 28 days pre-coil but 25 the last three. Planning on DTD every other day from CD8 to CD18. Going to temp too as only using an app & cm to judge O so hoping that will be more accurate.

Blue...super stressful job and anxiety too and the lack of doesn't help!
