Anyone just starting the tww?

[Bas27]

Hi all!
Either 1dpo or on ovulation day here! Been trying smep this month but hoping for a few lovely ladies to go through the tww with!
Age: 26
Ttc: #1
Cycle #2

Good luck @donna474
I'm wondering if I will ovulate a bit later this month due to the chemical pregnancy/slightly longer cycle. But I should be coming into my 'fertile window' anytime from now

I find that I seem to be ovulating a few days earlier than predicted on my app. I think the stage between my period ending and ovulating is too short. Can this be a problem in terms of not having a thick enough lining?

I'm a little late to the party here but reading through all of these comments is making me realise I'm not the only person making myself so crazy about the whole wait so thank you all!!

I've been having on/off cramping for the last few days, plenty of CM (TMI!) constipation (TMI again!) emotions all over the place and feeling CRAZY tired for most of the day and feeling like I need to nap when I get home from work before dinner!

I am now 8DPO and took a test this morning and it was negative and AF is due in 7 days and the wait til then has driven me to pure insanity and feel I've reached new heights of impatience. I feel most of what I've felt is way too early for any PMS feelings..? I'm lucky if I have a little cramping the day before AF turns up.

I don't like not being in control of my body or knowing what is causing me to feel this way. A very big part of me wants its to be 'THE' month but am I just kidding myself?

Hey can I join??

I’m on cycle 1 ttc #2 and I’m already going crazy 🙈🤣

I got a positive opk this morning and have been dtd everyday since Tuesday, trying to dtd every night till Sunday just in case ovulation is a little later!!

I’m rubbish at being patient so this tww is going to be torture 🙈!! I’m going to try and hold off from testing till 14dpo but I know by d10 I’ll have to 😂

What I want to know is do any of u ladies get really bad cramps at the time of big o? I’ve had them on off for the past 2-3 days!! Never had them this bad before! Tia x

Welcome to the chat @LKB24 and @Lubilu28 :)
I am still awaiting ovulation after my chemical pregnancy - my app tells me I should have ovulated today - but i'm still getting a plain circle on my OPK. I'm wondering if it's possible that I O'd early or perhaps the chemical will push it a few days late :/
@Lubilu28 - I don't often have cramps as such when ovulating - but often a sort of sensation - I can always feel it on one side or the other. But I know cramps are definitely a thing that happens to other people, and I think we are all much more aware of everything going on in our bodies when TTC - you feel everything! x

Ovulated today so commencing the tww! Anyone else with me?!?

@donna474 I'm 2dpo 🤞

@donna474 @themagictorch 2dpo here too :-) partner works away so not sure we managed our timings this month!

I've got a flashing smiley face on my OPK so I should be ovulating in the next few days - here we go again!

3dpo here!! And I feel like I’m going crazy 🙈 how can my husband go about his day normally? I can’t go 5 mins without having to google symptoms or research stuff😫🙈😂

Good luck ladies! Let the craziness commence!!

Question... I ovulated yesterday morning (felt it whilst driving to Alton Towers!) did BD last night, would it be worth BDing tonight too or would egg have bypassed any chance of fertilising as past 24 hours?

@donna474 I'm not an expert but i think the egg survives 12 hours after ovulation - if it hasn't already been fertilised. Can't do any harm though! 🤞🤞

Finally got a positive on my OPK - which I guess means the big O will happen tomorrow - and so my TWW begins!
How is everyone coping?

I'm 4 dpo and in Disneyland so very easily distracted right now!

@donna474 wow! That's a great distraction! Are you enjoying it?

I'm only 6dpo 😭 this cycle seems to be dragging. Hope it's the one! I think it's our best timing wise since our chemical. Will be testing next Friday

@TheMagicTorch I'm loving it thanks except for the 34 degree heat and two very hot stepdaughters! Thank god they let you buy a beer as long as you buy an ice cream! Planning on testing next Saturday as will be out for drinks in the evening

Hi ladies can I join please?
Got my fingers crossed for all our journeys 🤞🏽 lots and lots of baby dust for everyone!
Quick question can anyone see a faint line here or am I going nuts/cross eyed?

@Ask1984 I think I can see a very faint line! 🤞🏽 How many DPO are you?

Hi @Ask1984 👋 I can definitely see a very faint line! How many days post ovulation are you?

@donna474 Ahh lovely - hope you managed to keep cool.
🤞🏽 for Saturday, my AF is due Saturday think I'm going to test Friday as we're away for the weekend and I don't want to buy prosecco to find out I cant drink it!

@TheMagicTorch ha! That's always my reasoning behind testing before AF is due, don't want to be drinking when I shouldn't or waste money buying it!

@Ask1984 I can see a very faint line if I tilt my screen left and right!

@donna474 exactly! 😂 I'll be happy to give it up for a healthy pregnancy once I find out, but I'll be damned if I spend money on it to not be able to drink it! Or even worse watch DP drink my favourite!
🤞🏽🤞🏽 for us both this weekend!

@TheMagicTorch @donna474 @LucyC10
Omg really? I think so too but to scared to do another test...I'm 8dpo I think
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed 🤞🏽
Do you think I should do another test? I did this one slightly tipsy 🙈
How's everyone else getting along?
