Any mid-sept testers?

[Betsyboo87]

Hey, I'm just starting the tww and looking for some friends to join me for the wait. I'll probably test when af is due on the 16th. I've got to the point where I don't know what cycle I'm on - I think it's 8 though!

[Betsyboo87]

That's exciting Threeafter30. Let us know when you next test please.

sazzle3 I've been trying since end Jan too and it's all getting a little annoying now! Fx Sept is our lucky month.

[ThreeAfter30]

Thanks girls😘
Fingers crossed sept is lucky for us all!❤

Storm thats the only reason i tested! Eyes feel really dry with tiredness but yet im not sleeping very well, boobs are sore and im waking up bursting 2 or 3 times a night. Its so annoying! Lol

[ThreeAfter30]

Betsy i most defo will keep you all posted! I hate when people post and then dont bother letting anyone know the outcome lol

[sazzle3]

@Betsyboo87 ( I've had a name change i use to be sazwest84) .
Same here it's getting a little annoying I just wish it would happen xx

[sazzle3]

Sorry sazwest ( ignore the 84 bit lol) xx

My spotting has I think just turned in to AF a week and a half early. Oh well. Even though we aren't properly trying yet it would have been nice if it happened just after our wedding. Would have been good timing to announce at Christmas like we did our engagement. I doubt I'll be posting much or joining any more threads in the conceiving chat talk until we make decision to properly starts TTC. I am wishing you all the best, all my positive thoughts and prayers you get BFPs soon.

[Betsyboo87]

Ah sazzle3 I recognise your old user name. If I'd known it was going to take so long we'd have started sooner! We kept wanting to do things we would be able to do once we had children. Serves us right for being so greedy!

Pumpkinbee that's a shame af showed up. Sorry to see you and wishing you all the best when you properly start TTC.

[ThreeAfter30]

Aww pumpkin im so sorry to hear that. Big hugs 😘

[ThreeAfter30]

Congratulations @ThreeAfter30

Who's testing next?

I'm 3 DPO and no symptoms yet.

What Fertility apps are you using?
I'm liking Fertility Friend, but using Ovia along side it.

[CherryVicky29]

@ThreeAfter30 congrats! 🎉

@Littleredwagon2308 I'm not due to test till Tues/weds but days are dragging lol! I just started using Ovia and so far seems full of useful information and tracking 🙂

[sazzle3]

@Betsyboo87 I said the same thing to my hubby if I knew it was gonna take this long we would have started trying last year xx

[ThreeAfter30]

Defo no squinting for lines with this!
Thanks so much girls, its still soooo early, af not due til sunday xx

[EverythingNow]

Congratulations Threeafter30

[Flyingfruit]

Whoop no mistaking that one!
What's everyone doing about drinking while in the TWW? I'm spending the weekend with inlaws for a celebration and don't know whether I should be drinking or not? Too early to test though otherwise I'd do one to put my mind at ease.

[Littleredwagon2308]

Yeah! @ThreeAfter30 !

@Flyingfruit good Q I have the same one. I've got a celebration this weekend too.

[ThreeAfter30]

Thanks everyone! Hers hoping this thread is a lucky one for us all!
@flyingfruit me and dp were away last weekend and i had a few drinks

[sazzle3]

I've been wondering the same with drinking in TWW. I'm godmother on Sunday for my best friends little boy then away next weekend for a long weekend xx

[Hollsers92]

I've not been drinking at all while TTC just in case! My friends and family know that because I'm just married, that my DH and I are trying so they don't say anything luckily! It's really difficult though as I always want a wee taste but have to refrain. Congratulations Threeafter30!!!

[ThreeAfter30]

I dont drink much anyway but only had a couple last weekend as it was dps birthday surprise and i was driving home the next morning so i only had a couple of beer.
Thank you @hollsers we are both over the moon. Still really nervous tho as its so early. I have 24/25 day cycles and im only on cd22 today. Wont relax til af is a week late.
Hope to see loads more bfps on here from all you lovely ladies

[Pumpkinbee]

I've instructed DH to bring home my favourite bottle of red now that AF is here. I thought I wouldn't want to hang around the threads here on MN but I've found myself on them constantly checking in on everyone's posts hoping for more BFPs. I also decided to start eating and taking vitamins in prep for when we decide to try. It can't hurt.

[Betsyboo87]

Huge congrats threeafter30. Hopefully the first of many on this thread.

I have been drinking during TTC but only the odd glass of wine if we're out to dinner so nothing crazy. After 7+ months I'm just trying to go with the flow!

Pumpkinbee that's a great idea to start prepping. Are you taking folic?

[Hollsers92]

Woken up this morning at 10dpo with small cramps again but also a horrible scratchy throat, stuffy nose and tiredness .
Not too sure what to make of it all. Those are my only symptoms and I'm feeling rather sceptical at the moment. After 3 disappointments so far, I don't want to get my hopes up. Any advice?
