Starting the TWW - anyone want to join ?

ReginaPhalange89 · 07/11/2018 12:49

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?

So sorry @Hadaley. Is it the same brand of test that you used initially? X

EsaBel · 16/11/2018 13:17

Oh @hadaley I'm so sorry Sad. Praying for a sticky one the next time

EsaBel · 16/11/2018 13:25

So I caved last night and took an IC...BPN of course Sad I should've just waited until Monday like I said I would...

Cinnabonbons · 16/11/2018 14:10

Same with me, i checked yesterday, and ofcourse it was BFN..... its so hard isnt it, but after 5 months of trying i dont get as disappointed abymore, u get used to the negative 😩

Babytrain89 · 16/11/2018 14:27

First month ttc over here...been lurking trying to decipher the acronyms! Not a clue re: ovulation and kits...think it was mid- end last week. We're trying to be very relaxed about it and go with the flow....hasn't stopped me symptom spotting though! Good luck every one!

Mseddy · 16/11/2018 15:20

So sorry to hear that @hadaley :(

Boo2you · 16/11/2018 15:31

Really sorry @Hadaley xx

EsaBel · 16/11/2018 16:06

@cinnabonbons I ended up going on Amazon today getting the Wondfo's since these apparently read hcg at level 10 so I'll probably test again when they arrive. This is our first month trying after our lap so I don't feel too bad about the BFN...it'll happen when it's meant to.

@babytrain89 it sounds like our cycles might be pretty close...AF is supposed to arrive a week from today and I ovulated last week Fri.

Babytrain89 · 16/11/2018 16:40

@Esabel AF due here on 26th so it was earlier than I was expecting...but had some signs of ovulation. Guess it's a wait and see situation. This is our first cycle of trying so very much taking it as a learning curve! Hope you get your BFP!

Boo2you · 16/11/2018 16:59

@EsaBel I ovulated last Friday but my AF is due on Thursday so fairly similar too!

beibikeiks · 16/11/2018 17:31

Oh, I'm so sorry @Hadaley just saw your answer now 😢

EsaBel · 16/11/2018 17:32

Oh yey! that means this Sunday/Monday should be exciting days for us @Boo2you

@Babytrain89 at this point in time, it's a wait and see for us all...thankfully I have a dinner tonight and tomorrow will be in a training from very early in the morning and then a masquerade ball...so that should keep me busy until Sunday lol I will keep you all posted fx Smile

Mseddy · 16/11/2018 22:23

I've either completely lost the plot, or I've stared at so many blank white tests that I'm just imagining things....or I have a genuine squinter! DH can't see it, damn I can't even see it most of the time! But every now and again I see it! I've got a clear blue early detection for the morning (DH bought them, already doubting any sort of line because it's a blue one!) Can't wait to go to sleep so I can pee!

stroan · 16/11/2018 22:48

Fingers crossed @mseddy!

I’ve got one tonight too, but absolutely nothing his morning. I refuse to buy any expensive tests until I’m at least 15dpo or get a really strong line on an IC!

Mseddy · 16/11/2018 22:52

@stroan the urge to pee on an expensive stick is strong!!!!! I've just had every intention of dipping one, but my pee was so dilute I resisted! I hope I'm not just seeing things I want to see! I'm only 9DPO so I wouldn't be expecting a blazer on an IC any way!

DeadDoorpost · 16/11/2018 22:57

I'm in the tww but because my periods have only just started up again from breastfeeding my DS for the past year I've only had 2 AF. Supposedly meant to have started last Saturday but didn't, then found out I ovulated that night after a bout of really bad cramps and a dark positive opk so I'm wondering if I ovulated twice this month, or I got a dud test on one of them.

Either way, my predicted AF this time isn't until 30th Dec according to my data predictor...

asamamy1 · 17/11/2018 08:54

Crossing my fingers for some BFPs anyone testing this weekend!! I have told myself last time of testing before AF is due as the disappointment is just too much!
Expecting to see her on Wednesday and have a Clear Blue early detection stick to pee on tomorrow morning but I'm it hopeful. Maybe it will be a BFP for Christmas xx

stroan · 17/11/2018 09:01

Absolutely nothing on an IC this morning. I’m 12/13dpo. Too scared to do another FRER or a digital but it’s all-consuming. I can’t think of anything else.

My periods aren’t regular, no idea when it’s due so it could be among wait now.

@mseddy did you test?

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 10:20

Maybe try tomorrow with a frer? @stroan

mrsof20118 · 17/11/2018 10:21

My temp dipped this morning but I shouldn't be due on until Thursday. I woke up at 4 30 ish though and don't usually take it until 6 but cant see it making that much difference?! Waiting game today to see if af arrives.

Mseddy · 17/11/2018 10:58

@Regina yeah I did a clear blue early detection but they are just crap! There was blue in the test window but not central so I'm taking it as a dudd. Did another IC because they are the same sensitivity as the clear blue and couldnt call it either way again! I'm at work till 8 tonight but I'm going to concentrate on not peeing after 4 so I can do another IC this evening incase I'm a stronger in the evening kind of person! I'm not feeling hopeful at all thought :( I'm 10DPO (9 potentially depending how long post surge I ovulated) so it should show by now on a 10 sensitive test

stroan · 17/11/2018 11:03

@mrsof20118, no need. Drove to the chemist for some FRERs, got home and AF has started.

All those faint lines on IC tests have really messed with my head, so I’m not taking it too well.

Mseddy · 17/11/2018 11:42

@stroan sorry to hear that :( what shit timing of AF :(

MrsMargot · 17/11/2018 12:26

I am very sorry @stroan ... I know exactly how you feel...
