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.

@HeartvsHead : sounds positive - fingers crossed

No symptoms for me yet - although at 2DPO that's not really a surprise Grin

Hello :)
Stats:
40
Ttc #3
Cycle 3
12dpo
Imagined/actual symptoms: AF due but no signs , creamy CM *TMI, pulling /bringing on my cervix at 11dpo, psychosomatic or genuine frequent peeing

However just tested with a BFN...so now find myself googling BFN at 12dpo followed by BFP🤣

Good luck all. I've just quickly flipped through some of the thread - any BFP yet?

Scottish1 · 15/01/2019 21:50

@Doris19 I have already consumed quite a few Cream eggs already 😂

Scottish1 · 15/01/2019 21:54

Evening ladies! Trying to distract myself and stay off of phone as all I seem to be doing in googling TTC stuff 😂 Can’t wait to start hearing about your BFPs soon! I have another 10 days to wait until test! Counting down and trying to not get my hopes up! So hard!!!!

ShortandSweet96 · 15/01/2019 22:23

We came stark last in the quiz, fail!

Welcome to all our new comers!

No symptoms this evening but ashamed to admit I had s cocktail or two!

@ShortandSweet96 🙈 there's always next week!!

For the CM trackers, is there meant to be a difference between "pregnant" CM and "not pregnant" CM post ovulation?!

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 12:05

@Doris19 I'm 5dpo now and since ovulation I have completely dried up, not even any white creamy non fertile cm. Just nothing at all. Hoping it's a good sign rather than a bad one!

(It’s Gumball54, I forgot my password 🙈)

I’m 6dpo, I’ve been having this weird pain/pressure below my belly button! It not intense but I don’t think I’ve felt it before.
I don’t know much about CM except the fertile stuff.

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 12:18

I had a weird sensation to the left of my belly button early this morning, but it only lasted minutes. Ramping up the symptom spotting now I think!

Haven't really noticed any cm since ovulation, I know when you do become pregnant you produce like cervical fluid which protects the opening to the cervix and to protect against infections. Boobs are still sore.

Mooey89 · 16/01/2019 13:32

My symptom spotting is getting out of hand, I’ve had really bad period style cramps today but AF not due for another 8 days?!
Also could swear I feel nauseous but that’s ridiculous as wouldn’t be obvious so early!

GB54 · 16/01/2019 15:25

I’ve felt really nauseous but I’m actually wondering if it’s the vitamin I take causing it!

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 17:58

Hi @barnburntdown sounds promising! No BFP's here yet but still too early to test! Still fond myself Weeing on a stick just in case I ovulated early..

Keep us updated!

Niggly lower back ache today.

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 18:50

I've just eaten the biggest kebab I've ever witnessed. I usually leave half of them! Definitely hungrier recently

Lauraliverpool · 16/01/2019 19:35

@ShortandSweet96 sounds nice! Have just had a KFC and feel so full, need to start well trying to eat more healthy!

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 19:41

Tell me about it! We usually eat healthy at home but if we haven't got anything or forgot to defrost things we end do eating so much rubbish.
I need to drink more water for sure though!

Lauraliverpool · 16/01/2019 20:03

Said to hubby what shall we have for tea, said stir fry, fajitas but no take out instead. I do drink a lot of water which is something.

ShortandSweet96 · 16/01/2019 20:50

I do love fajitas! Just led down in bed and can really feel some form .of pulling or cramp low down. Strange feeling!

Helllllo! Can I join pleaseee? My TWW started the exact same day as you OP, AF due 24th.

Here's my stats:
Age - 28
TTC #1
Cycle - 6

Keeping everything crossed for us all this month!

Doris19 · 16/01/2019 21:49

Hi @todaywasafairytale and today's other newbies!

DS1's birthday today so I am stuffed full of chocolate cake. Feel sick but it's definitely a food baby this one!!!

So courtesy of @Lauraliverpool I have got some bargain FRERs. Might get a bit complex but have I got this right...

  • AF due 23rd (assuming 31 day cycle not entirely sure)
  • FRER can be done 6 days before a MISSED period so that's Saturday 19th??
  • But I think I am only 9DPO on Saturday so seems too early? Hence perhaps this cycle is longer than 31 days - I'm not entirely certain how long my luteal phase is.

Should I just go for it and not worry about a BFN??

Who else is testing on Saturday??

tedsy · 16/01/2019 22:07

Hi to those who joined today.

@Doris19 I won't be testing this weekend - you are few days ahead of me, so I'll have to be patient a bit longer. I've heard it's possible to get a positive in 9dpo, although doesn't happen for everyone. Are you feeling positive this month?

Doris19 · 16/01/2019 22:24

@tedsy I am pretty sure I know when I ovulated and covered my bases accordingly, but think a BFN even if just testing too early might get me stressed....

Going to a wedding on 26th so want to know before then ideally before I get plastered!! AF due around 23rd so hopefully should get reasonable certainty...although not sure what I'll say if not drinking!!

Lauraliverpool · 16/01/2019 23:31

@Doris19 great about the frers 🙂 I might try and hold off testing, have only got the digital test which aren't the most sensitive until a little later, is that right? and haven't got any others so the temptation isn't there. According to Flo AF due on 22nd which is 22 day cycle but I know it's only a prediction, I am worried about a bfn just with trying past few months and getting disappointed.

Pollaay · 16/01/2019 23:34

Can I join please? 😃
