Starting the TWW - anyone want to join ?

[ReginaPhalange89]

So I think I'm in the tww, had a positive OPK on Monday afternoon and negative since so think I may be 1 or 2 dpo

Not sure we've done enough this month so will be surprised if it does happen .

Anyone want to join me in the wait?

Congrats @TerriB84 for your BFP!

Thanks for the info @ronniemipperton, useful to know.

Sorry you got a negative @DeadDoorpost, hopefully it's just too early as you say.

I've had a really stressful day today and actually felt pretty emotional too, though I think that's just from rubbing around after DS and trying to work at the same time. Got some FRERs on an amazon deal so I might try one of those. What's the earliest that you can use a FRER? I know the accuracy is pretty poor when it's too early.

Congrats to you @terriB84

Congrats @TerriB84!

@Gimble technically you can use them 5 days before AF is due but I’d wait until 11dpo if you can. That said I used one at 8dpo this month! But the earlier you do it the more likely you are to waste more tests as if you get a BFN testing early - which is v likely - it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not your month, just that it’s too early.

Anyway I had a temp drop this morning so AF is on her way. Off to the December bus, see some of you there, and congrats/good luck to the others :)

Thanks Ronnie. Think I might wait until 11dpo if I can which is pretty much a week away. Hope You get your BFP for Xmas!

Also... I am running around after DS don't MN when tired

Feeling proper nervous today my AF is due tomorrow not gonna test unless it doesn't start then - i don't really feel confident that it's worked this month tho! 🙁

I'm out! AF arrived today in full force so I'm dosed up on pain killers and hoping DS isn't so clingy so I can just rest today. Really don't feel like doing anything.

We're not going to try for a while now. Not with a big move happening in 2 months.

I'm out as I thought - AF due today or tomorrow I tested today FMU 13dpo BFN so will have to join the December bus - though coz of my 35 day cycle I won't be due to ovulate for another 3 weeks!!

I've tried to upload photos a couple of times, but it doesn't seem to be working. I caved and tested this morning, unless my eyes are wrong I think it's positive!

@sammi0805 exciting!! Keeping everything crossed for you!

Congrats to everyone who had a BFP everyone else talk again in 2 weeks for the next 2ww!!

Congratulations @sammi0805 !! I caved myself today and I tested but it was BFN.. I am 11dpo. I try not to symptom spot but since I had everything in the book I gave it a try...damn...

Same boat as you @MrsMargot 11dpo and BFN I had cramps and a cold but not to be this month!!

Ladies need your advice im having alot of white milky like cm and cramps do you think AF could be about to show?

You sound like you might be about to ovulate apparently white milky cm appears just before?

Im cycle day 22 though AF is due today I had clear cm on the 10th 11th 12th AF is due on the 29th x

Thank you ladies. Try not to worry though, I had a negative yesterday so it could still happen for you!

That is very encouraging @sammi0805 ! Thank you! Would you mind me asking how many dpo are you? I know that 11 dpo is still early but I am pretty disheartened...

Thanks @sammi0805 I'll see if my AF comes tomorrow 🤞 it doesn't and I get a BFP but I think it will come tomorrow 🙁 xx

@MrsMargot if I've got it right I think I'm 15dpo, I've been testing since Sunday though!

Just had the weirdest OPK?! I'm pretty sure I'm ovulating today, tests have been getting stronger and stronger last couple of days and had symptoms today. But what the hell is this? It looks like I've drawn a second line closer to the control line than the test line would be and I swear I haven't! It's a really deep colour in real life.

Any ideas?!!

Just realised I'm being stupid I'm 13 dpo not 11 for some reason I was thinking two weeks is 12 days not 14! My AF is due tomorrow so the BFN I got this morning was at 13 dpo!

Not much there yet but pretty sure AF is starting so I'm def out this month - wish better luck to everyone else - hurry up month #2!! Xx

That's so strange @showmethegin!! I'm not an OPK expert but I'm sure one will come along shortly. Did you take another one? Could just be a faulty test and the dye strip has moved?

I've had a little bit of cramping today and quite loose bowels (soz for tmi!) I'm 7dpo so it's either early period pain or potential implantation, though it's most probs the former!

Thanks @GimbleInTheWabe no I didn't cus it was 6pm and I heard you should take them up until 8pm and no later so didn't want weak urine (sorry tmi!!). My cycle is messed up though because it's usually around 35 days then af arrived after 24 days! (Multiple preg test all bfn).

So don't really know where I am now but dtd just in case!

Fingers crossed it's implantation for you!!

Hmm that's odd @showmethegin. Fingers crossed the timing was right then. Are you going to do another OPK today?
