Anyone just starting the TWW..?

[HappyThoughts7]

Hi all,

Just started the 2WW (I think) as I’m pretty sure I ovulated yesterday/today based on Flo & the bloatedness I’ve had...just wondered if anyone was at the same stage as me and how they were feeling about it all? This is TTC #1 for me xx

Hi everyone...
I’m new here
Was due my a/f supposedly this weekend but yet to show, I say supposedly as I came off pill beg March had a 3 day withdrawal bleed and then nothing!!! Not sure when I would of ovulated but have been dtd loads! Have done a test a couple of days ago and was bfn but guessing prob too early!

Hey @Rose2887 - welcome! how are you doing? Any sign of AF? Have you tested? How are you @LG88 ?

Hey @buntingandstarcharts, here we are again in the dreaded 2ww!! How are you feeling? So this month we took it a bit more seriously, I did clearblue ovulation tests to make sure we gave it the best shot. We dtd every day that my ovulation tests showed high and then peak. I'm really hoping that puts us in with a good shot this time as at least we know our timing was right.
When should af be due for you? Are you feeling optimistic this cycle? Xx

@buntingandstarcharts All good this end, How are you?
Still no af... but had some cramps all weekend expecting to start and nothing... boobs are sore too! Thinking I’m going to buy a clear blue later and see.... nervous 🙈 Had been using those cheapy amazon ones but I don’t think they are very sensitive!! How’s everyone else?? Xx

Welcome @Rose2887!
Fingers crossed for you! Hopefully you start us all off on a run of BFP!!
Let us know how you get on when you test. 🤞🤞🤞 Xx

@LG88 hey 😊 how are you?

Now I’m town about to buy one

So... I’ve said my fmu... can I use this?? It’s in a pee pot or should I just use my next pee???

Any help would be much appreciated xx

I meant *saved

Good luck @Rose2887 !! Fingers crossed for a BFP for you!

@Rose2887 I'm good, just already fed up of waiting. I am the most impatient person ever!!
I think they advise that you test using fmu because it is more concentrated so more likely to have enough of a hormone level to be picked up.
I don't know if it matters if it has been sat in a container though 🤔
If you test later in the day I think you should try to hold your pee for 4 hours before testing. I'm no expert though! 🤷 Xx

HEY everyone 😊
So bought a clue blue digital test and it’s saying not pregnant.. have read instructions and have realised these aren’t very sensitive 🙄 I actually do feel pregnant which is the weirdest part... nothing makes sense!!! Starting to worry what if it’s an ep?? Xx

Yer I don't think the digital tests are very good for picking it up early @Rose2887.
I think mostly people use the frer tests for the initial results and then use a digital to confirm and get the number of weeks. Try not to worry too much, easier said than done I know. Some people's hormones take longer to get to a level that they can be detected. Xx

@LG88 frer ordered 😊

Im trying not to worry too much but would be nice to get an answer!!
My dp is convinced I am, so was I, but now feel silly!

Anyone had a negative reading on clearblue digital?

X

Oh @Rose2887 do not feel silly. I promise you we have all done the same.
It is incredibly stressful and I am sure our bodies play horrible tricks on us when we have so much on our minds.
I have seen ladies on these forums who have said they didn't get BFP until a week or two after period was late.
The wait is by far the hardest part but feel free to chat to us if you want any support and know that you are not alone!! You are definitely in with a good chance still, until AF shows you are definitely not out!! Stay positive! 🤞🤞Xx

Ladies.. So this is a bit of a tmi post so apologies in advance but today I am having loads of cm, like such a lot at one point I thought I had started to bleed but it turned out to be a milky discharge.. AF is not due until 20th, anyone have any idea what may be causing this??? Thanks ladies. Xx

@LG88 just checking in, how are you? Silly me accidentally done an ovulation test today thinking I had purchased a pregnancy test.. only to find a faint line lol.. waiting for a frer x

Hi @Rose2887 and @LG88 how are you both? Any updates? I wouldn't worry about being crazy - we all are on here haha, I'm usually crayyy but been on loofah which has curbed it slightly. I'm due on in 2 days, done some cheap early tests and negative! Yet another friend is pregnant within 2 months of trying! But I'm trying to gain perspective. Remind me girls how long you've been trying? That was our 5th month, I find it so hard to believe that a year is 'normal'. I feel like it's just not working at all and I'm not sure why! X

Loofah?! That's meant to be 'holiday'

@buntingandstarcharts
So still no af.... feeling crampy and boobs been sore but that’s it...
it’s a waiting game, testing Monday! How about you? Xx

@buntingandstarcharts I know exactly how you feel, this is also our 5th month and I am convinced again that it hadn't happened this time. Its so hard isn't it and I'm not sure about this 2ww- I'm sure someone sneaks at least another week into it each month, it feels like forever!!!
Hope you had a lovely holiday, maybe that was just what you needed and you are on your way to a BFP! 🤞
I have to be honest, every month that passes I do wonder if it is ever going to happen for us. 😣 Xx

Hi @buntingandstarcharts @Rose2887 and @LG88 ,

How are you all doing?

I skipped this cycle so nothing happening here. I will join you in the tww again the following cycle, but hopefully you will all get BFPS now!

Hope you are all okay.

Period due today. I shall keep you updated but all tests have said negative and I can feel it coming.... so let's see. Good luck to everyone! ❤️

Hey everyone after thinking my af was coming today due to bad cramps.. have done a first response and have the faintest of lines 🙈

@Rose2887 this is amazing! Show us!

Thanks 😊 It’s very faint so going to test fmu :)
What do you think?

I see it definitely! So when was your period due? Amazing x
