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

Dying to test, still have 2/3 days before AF is due. Anyone think I could chance a FRER? Or is it still too early?

Anyone tracking BBT? OD was the 24th(apparantly). AF due on the 8th. Not entirely sure what this tells me, but I do quite enjoy tracking it.

Anyone just starting the TWW..?

no clue @pob, but fx a dip around this time could mean implantation it happening.

@juniper, I would wait it out if possible ((l know, easier said than done )) but the test will be a lot clearer. glad

@penny, lots of cm is a good sign. mostly happens in early pregnancy. all the best

sorry for the bfn @mrzE, but I guess you already know it's a little early. l will be onto a bottle of wine this weekend as l impatiently await the witch on Wednesday

Hi guys, hope you don't mind me joining! I'm TTC #1 Cycle 2. Currently 5DPO. My worry is that we only managed to DTD once the day before O this cycle - anyone else in the same boat? I'm scared Im pretty much out of the running for a Feb BFP :(
@DreamyCat and @eatingthoughts when do you think you'll next test?

@rosieposies Welcome! I hope you get your positive this month. You never know - sometimes once is all it takes! As for me, this might sound silly but I have a feeling that I'm not pregnant, even though I did everything "right" last month. I will only test if & when no sign of AF. How about you?

@rosieposies when I got pregnant last time we only DTD once that month so it's possible!

pob all I can tell from the graph is that you definitely ovulated, as your temp has risen and consistent. High temps for 18 days I believe is a sign your pregnant.

I feel very sick today. Could be all of the chocolate I ate 🙈

I’ll be about 10dpo tomorrow and will use a frer.
Anyone care to join poas in morning?

@Dragonandthewolf how exciting! I look forward to seeing you post in the morning, fx for you!!
Chocolate is much needed during tww, it's a very stressful time!

penny I think increased cm before af is quite normal something to do with increased progesterone from memory?

When will you be testing?

rosie I only dtd once for my DD - on the day of ovulation. Timing is everything!! A day before ovulation is as good timing as it gets.

eatingthoughts · 02/02/2018 17:24

We were dtd once before ovulation for both of my pregnancies so it's quite possible to catch the bean the first time round!
I've had weird pains today and more cm but not having my hopes high although can smell like a dog, asked my husband if he had a shower lol. The problem is the bloody progesterone that gives us the same symptoms as pregnancy!!!

I'm feeling a bit down. My intuition tells me I'm not pregnant this month even though we did everything right. I wish I could just know one way or another whether a baby will happen for us. It's the waiting and uncertainty that gets to me. Sad

Sorry to be negative! Just having a wobble I guess.

eatingthoughts · 02/02/2018 17:57

DreamyCat are you ttc nr1?
I know it's hard not to be negative knowing that getting pregnant is not so easy and you don't know what to expect. Some couples get it right the first time, some have to wait longer which is unfair but mother nature is never fair is she.
You'll get there!

@eatingthoughts Yes, it would be number one. We haven't even been trying long (I only stopped my contraceptive pill in August) so nothing to complain about really! I suppose I worry because I held off on TTC for several years (partner really wanted to since 2014). Maybe I've left it too late. Going to have a bath now and try and forget about it for a bit. Love & luck to all!

Tummy bug? Never had sickness with DD

Hmmm, that’s strange @dragon. Are you feeling okay?

Looking forward to the POAS results in the morning, fingers crossed for you all. My bleeding had stopped, so I’m trying to not be too hopeful, but also thinking that much have been IB as still 6 days before AF due & 9DPO...here’s hoping! Xx

@Dreamycat I have the same feeling, the not knowing is hard, but I think the sense that it hasn’t worked this month is worse

I actually think it’s a sickness bug happy! Projectile vomiting still. Hopefully a one or two off!
Yay on the bleeding stopping. Fx for the morning! x
