BFP Winter Wonderland, full of babydust and positive thoughts on the journey to our BFP.

[Carastarchild]

Thread two for TWW begins...stop me POAS every day!

Eeeek! @flossytots I see it too!! I have everything crossed that this is your month!!! 🤞🏼🌟🤞🏼🌟

BFN but I'm actually ok with that. I knew it would be so it's given me the clear head to move on. Having what feels like ovulation cramps today, so I think I am about CD9 with ovulation due around Sunday and hopefully a BFP to report back on around 9th December although I may be a few days out as I have no idea what to class as CD1!

As the doctor is hesitant to refer us for tests just yet, DP suggested we write up a bucket list of all the places we want to visit. We're going to save and plan a few trips so we always have something to look forward to and be excited about. It's given me a renewed energy and something else to focus on.

Sending you all positive energy and baby dust for your journeys 💖💜🌟💖💜🌟

@Whisky2014 congratulations on your wedding! Happy honeymoon! Xx

Hi ladies...looks like AF got me 😒😫 however, af is very light and sorry for tmi but mostly brown. Will test again tomorrow morning. 🤞

@whisky congratulations on your wedding 🎉🎉🎉 and baby dust to you for your honeymoon baby 🍼

@londonkez the bucket list is such a wonderful idea, it will give you something else to focus on and take the pressure off of ttc. We have done the same and booked two holidays, it’s really helped to keep me sane 😊

Oh sorry to hear that @Flossytots fingers crossed for you next cycle!!!!

Does anyone ever get really sore and heavy boobs after ovulation? Mine are soooo painful and full-feeling. I do sometimes get this before I'm due on but that's not till 29/11 and I only normally get it a few days before if I do.

@Flossytots I see those lines too! Fingers crossed for you. Looks promising! Xxxx

Fx for the morningFlossytots 🌟✨🌟

Londonkez I love your positivity ✨💜✨ I am sorry you got a BFN. Fx that this is your cycle.

I am exhausted, so I am off to bed. I promise to catch up with everyone tomorrow 💜🌟💜

Good luck to all those testing in the morning 🤞🤞🤞

MrsL my boob pain is usually on the left side of my left boob. It always happensaround two days or so after ovulation Other than that it generally varies from month to month. Fx it's a positive sign for you 🤗

Ok so my mind has been blown.
So long story my cycles have been 33 days give or take a day for the past few cycles but I used to have 28 day cycles give or take a day up until June this year.
Anyway been doing natural cycles on and off because I often forget but this month I've been bang on it and only missed like 3 days. So did my temp this morning and a message pops up that it's detected my ovulation day and it's a week earlier than it said before and now it's moved my period due date to this weekend instead of next weekend. I don't know what to think about that really? Luckily we DTD either side of the "new ovulation" day but what the hell how can it change it so much?!? It's like my whole cycle has shifted by 7 days. Anyone else ever had this? Don't know if I should trust it?

Hey ladies!
Hope you are well!!

This wait is killing me......I think I'm 9dpo. Feeling so rough. Been nauseous for 3 days now, only helps if I eat! And lower back feels like it is burning. A little creamy white cm (tmi!!). When shall I test????

Help!!! Xxx

Evening ladies! Still no sign of AF!! Cycle 10 cycle day 38 BFN today again. I've only got 1 test left so going to wait until the weekend and see what's going on before i test again... in theory

MrsLBear I wouldn't personally rely on apps that predict ovulation. I actually used cheap opks and they were incredibly accurate! I only bought the monitor as it tells when you get an estrogen surge, which results in LH being released thereafter. Once you see the estrogen surge then you know ovulation is on it's way.

Kitandcats If I were you I would hold off until 11/12 dpo as you will get a more accurate result when you test....hang on in there! I know the last few days of the Two Week Wait can be rough and our patience and faith are truly tested.

Rachael I believe that you must have ovulated later than you believe...were you using OPKs or BBT?

Chiki when did your spotting begin? I think I am 6dpo and I just had a little bit of light brown spotting. I had a strange pain in my womb this morning that lasted about 2 minutes. I was trying to get out the door for work, so I didn't think anything more about it until I saw the brown spotting 🤔

Hi @Carastarchild. I first had spotting 5 days before my period was due and it happened on 3 days in a row, just a bit each afternoon getting less each time.

I have had spotting yesterday a bit and today even more. That's 3 and 4 days after I expected to get my period.

Having a really down day today worried it might be ectopic pregnancy or something. Had a tiny bit of pain consistently in one particular place on one side. I first had dizziness 6 days before expected period. I just think that's too early to have symptoms unless ectopic.

Am I going mad?! Might phone the doctor tomorrow..... Hope your spotting is a good sign xxxxxx

Chiki definitely go to the doctor to get checked out. It must be very stressful to be thinking that. At least if you get checked you will know for sure that it's not a ectopic pregnancy. Then you will be able to relax. Sending you a big big hug 💜 🌟💜 🌟

Thanks @Carastarchild I'm so scared to make the call and start having appointments after such a traumatic birth last time. The thought of it is probably worse than what will actually happen though. I will report back when I've plucked up the courage to go Xxxx

Please can I join you. In the tww at the moment and driving myself crazy symptom spotting and not testing. Trying to hold out til the weekend - it's good to know it's not just me!

Congratulations to those with BFPs and fingers crossed for everyone else.

Ttc#1, 🚲1, 8dpo so BFP due 26/11.

Chiki I really doubt you it's an ectopic pregnancy. I would believe it's all due to progesterone which can make your bowel sluggish and could be giving you discomfort. Remember that your traumatic time with your first born is behind you...you are now moving forward in life and embracing a new beginning x

The brown spotting has stopped again. It would be great if it was from implantation, but I am not getting my hopes up. High hopes result in a thud back to reality.

@carastarchild temping doesn't really work for me, sleeping pattern all over the place so don't get any accurate results. It's all over the place. Didn't get any positive OPKs this month at all

Welcome 38notcounting. I will add your stats to the list later. Fx for you 🤗

Chiki try not to worry. I know that is easier said than done.

Rachael all you can do is wait I'm afraid. I know that's probably the last thing you want to do, but it's the same for all of us.

Flossytots are you okay? Fx you got a strong line x

Londonkez how are you getting on? Are you any closer to ovulation?

TMI alert but I am after getting thrush! I haven't ever had this unless it was from an antibiotic. I am using probiotics to try to clear it naturally.

London how old are you? I can't understand why your doctor won't refer you. That must be very very frustrating. My advice is to keep going back!

Hi ladies, any updates @flossytots? x
I hope everything is ok @chikitiki? x
Fx the spotting is a good sign @carastarchild x

I'm ok, have been taking my temps but only just logged them into Natural Cycles as I tend to get quite obsessive with checking the graph! It has calculated that today is CD11 and ovulation due on Monday. Going to avoid looking at it again until next week!

@MrsLBear when you count your LP with the new date Natural Cycles has given you, is it still your normal number? Mine detects when my cycle is longer/shorter by a few days bit will still add in my cycles average LP. Good luck! x

@carastarchild I'm 32 and ttc first. They've said that as my cycles are regular and I had a termination previously (when I was 17!) they know I am able to conceive. I had some dodgy cervical smear results 4 years ago and have a smear every 18 months now. They've also done scans of the ovaries, pelvis and a colposcopy twice in that time, so she said anything unsual would have been detected. They would consider soing a SA on DP early next year, but nothing for me at this stage. We're going to go back in Jan, but I'm not holding my breath! I think where I live they don't refer for 18-24months rather than 12? Not sure though x
