TWW starts now, join me!

[ShortandSweet96]

Anybody starting their tww?
Mine starts today, my app says test on the 25th so I'm challenging myself not to test early this time!

Come join me for 14 days of symptom spotting and a healthy dose of moaning about mean AF.

Also due a week today, I feel more chill than last month but still a little crazy lol.
You're not out until AF shows her ugly face @scottish1!

Thanks @ShortandSweet did you test again? X

Only with internet cheapies but going by the reviews I wouldn't 100% trust them anyway, apparently the ones I've bought are rubbish and nobody was getting lines until AF was overdue. Trying not to think about it until Friday, then will pick up a FRER as will be 3 days until AF so if I was going to get any form of BFP I think it would be then!

Ok so, not sure if my sense of smell is heightened. But we have a plug in air freshener on the kitchen which I don't usually notice too much. But I've walked in from work and the smell is SO strong. Like it's all I can smell is really strong watermelon! I'm not sure if it's just recently puffed a bit out but I've never smelt it so strong in my life.
Also have a weird sharp taste in my mouth but I've just eaten a chocolate yoghurt so that could be absolutely f#@k all too!

Still no AF today, that watery taste you have when you feel like you want to be sick, don't know how many times I've been for a wee today, still got the lower back ache. @Scottish1 now and again I've been getting that tingling sensation in my boobs similar to what you're describing. According to countdown to pregnancy calculator tomorrow is the best day to test but I'm going to wait few more days and see.

Ooh! @ShortandSweet Now I’m tempted to test with you on Friday!!! 😂

@Scottish1 completely understand the need to rant! I def have days where I'm so fed up with ttc. At the moment I'm flipping between feeling semi positive because there is every chance it could be this month; and then feeling like this will never happen - I think that's the side effect of seeing so many negatives. Hope you're feeling better x

Hi ladies

Hope you are all okay, feel the frustration. Well I think I ovulated today so hopefully we have given it a good go this month.

I am absolutely exhausted, my boobs ache. I need a break from this malarkey

@tedsy thanks 😘

Lots of promising sign there guys. Finger crossed for the next batch of BFPs!

@Scottish1 never apologise for ranting. That's what we are here for. There is a limit as to how much you can chat to your other half about these things and still expect them to be up for sex!

My boobs have suddenly gone super full so hoping ov is soon which will also hopefully mean the shorter end of my cycle length and less of a wait!

Also I just read that some of the conception vitamins can mess with your cycle and the one I was taking is linked to making cycles longer I didn't take anything till I was pregnant with DD so may ditch them just in case that was the cause of my long cycle last time.

Very impressed with everyone's willpower re POAS this month!!! @HeartvsHead @Lauraliverpool @ShortandSweet96 fingers crossed for lots of bfp's

@Scottish1 hope you are feeling better, I can totally empathise and its such a relief to have here as an outlet for some of these feelings.

@agteacht Good news on the ov!!

I'm only 3 dpo and so bored of the TWW already. I'm eating for 2 that's for certain! Been on Ava world and countdown waaay to much already as well but much more relaxed as to what will be will be than last month. Hoping to stay that way over the next week...

Aw, thank you @HeartvsHead and @Doris19 😘 It was great to just let it all out earlier 😂

@Doris19 I thought I was more chilled this month, well I was, but have been getting progressively more symptom spotting obsessed as the days go on! 🤪

@scottish1 I'm getting got he point where I want to start doing the crazy symptom spotting because I've had absolutely.no indicators this tww! I'd rather be making a fuss over every ache and twinge than sulking that I can't feel a thing

@ShortandSweet96 I am actually finding I'm longing to start symptom spotting. Come on ov! Let's get this 2ww on the road.

Still nothing on opks. Not even a vague line showing. I know it's meant to show a darker line than the control when ovulation is happening but surely something should be showing by now!?

I think no symptoms is a good sign @ShortandSweet !

How frustrating for you @HeartvsHead ! 😡

@Doris19 I've been pleased with myself for having the will power to resist testing, have only got a clear blue digital and I don't want to waste it. According to Flo I'm one day late and another app I've got is saying I'm 3 days late. I don't want to set myself up for disappointment. X

Omg!!! @LauraLiverpool 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Scottish1 everything crossed 🤞🤞🤞do I buy a test or wait bit longer, I've been strong! X

@lauraliverpool. I think it's your late I'd just test! Absolutely everything crossed for you!!

I would and I’m dying to know your result but do whatever you feel is right for you. Have you been getting af pains?

@scottish1 @lauraliverpool. I'm also itchingto know Laura's result! It's like because it's too early for me to test I'm searching all the line eyes threads on MN. It's like a new hobby!

😂 Same here @ShortandSweet that and googling symptoms but not getting any answers!!! 😩

How are you feeling @ShortandSweet? Any af cramps or feelings? I have a faint feeling of mild af cramps so worried that this is the build up to her 😭

Has Anyone experienced strong period pains 1 week after ovulation / 1 week before they are due?

@rachel59pink that is so interesting, I am having the same thing. Not so strong though, similar to what I usually get around ovulation.

@Lauraliverpool keep thinking about your testing too! 🤣 🙈

@Scottish1 absolutely nothing! Other than maybe a bit gassy the last couple of day.. or that could just be down to all the crap I've eaten recently! Which also could be a symptom, craving sugary rubbish food?!
Not sure it was a symptom but yes @rachel59pink I had a few minutes of really strong AF cramps the other day!
