Starting tww

[hopeful31]

Tww starting tomorrow. Ovulation today. Af due 24th. Someone join me and help me stay sane please.

Girls what are we thinking about pineapple/brazil nuts and the like? Some websites list these as good 'implantation foods' but also saw an IVF website that said was a load of rubbish. Also.. alcohol! Haven't had any this week but have a friend's 30th on Saturday and will be obvious if not drinking... thinking a couple of white wine spritzers? Or could just be honest with her and say why I'm not drinking much. Hmm!

I'm on the pineapple and mc'ds chips. No Brazil nuts mind. I'd have a few wines, but not go mental, watered down with ice/soda is a good idea !! Have fun!

Does anyone know how ur cm should be if u have conceived and it's during the tww?

I think thick and creamy. But that’s just from mr google!! I keep wondering how early is too early to test 😂 ever niggle or cramp is being over analysed!! Bahhh my brain🙈

Think it varies from person to person as i have read that some are dry, some are very wet and some are creamy lol.

I am the same @bumpingalong84 i keep thinking to myself i must have done it this month as we did SMEP but dont want to get my hopes up so i try and keep busy so the days pass quicker.

Thanks for replying. I'm only 4dpo and now I'm already obsessed even tho I said that I wouldn't this month 😂

It is taking all my strength to try and be sane this month lol.
I dont know if i ovulated on 9th or 7th as i had positive opk's twice so i am going by the last one just in case which would make me 5dpo.

Had lots of gas, cramps today and had quite bad cramps last night and my boobs hurt too.

You have any signs @hopeful31?

I'm 4dpo. I have no signs except a little more cm than what I usually have after ovulation. When do u plan on testing first ??

I've got heartburn today. I've not had heartburn for years! Keeping my fingers crossed its a good thing.

I'm joining in with symptom spotting (even though I said I wouldn't) Sore boobs and needle like feeling in my hip. Convinced myself it was implantation, nothing to do with my first run post transfer!
Heartburn is surely a sign and on valentines, how romantic!!!

I’ve only just discovered what SMEP is. Sounds like a good way to cover all bases.
I was so lucky first time round and fell pregnant 2nd month with my DD. I was so chilled 4yrs ago. This time round I’m obsessing over everything from my CM, bloated ness to how my boobs feel and I’m only 4DPO I think 🙈 I’m tempted to test first thing Monday morning 😬 far too early right!!

When everyone else planning to POAS?

Ladies I'm not allowed to POAS so you'll need to all early test for me!!! Hope you've all had a lovely evening and got valentines gifts of multipacks of cheap tests! Lol

Some potential positive symptoms girls! That’s good! Nothing new for me but if implant around day 9 that’s not till Sunday so unlikely to get anything till next week. Going to wait till at least 12DPO if I can to POAS.

Hi all please can I join, officially in the TWW I'm 1 DPO, feel like the time goes so fast until the TWW and then it drags, cycle 5 for me TTC#1 and starting to feel a bit deflated I know 5 months is nothing compared to some but I just really thought it would've happened by now. Here I am again telling myself this could be the month. Wishing you all good luck! 🙏🏻

Good luck @MrsP4 ! Whether it's 5 months or 5 years. It's still tough when it's something you want, it's not a competition.

Can i ask, what is SMEP?

@whatdoyouwantfromme Thank you, I know and I feel like each month is harder because you want it more than the last, how long have you been TTC? @Shefliesonherownwings it stands for SpermMeetsEggPlan

Can I join?I got a faint pink positive yesterday but I have had 2 negative CBs since then?Any advice girls?
Thanks x

@Moussemum CB digital Aren't that sensitive give it a few days and test again

Thanks I will do.Im just so disheartened at the minute.Been ttc for 2 years.I will be 40 this year.😬

@Moussemum don't be disheartened- keeping everything crossed for you !
@MrsP4 TTC 4 years (I'm on my first IVF cycle, but want to hang out on this board not the infertility one) good luck all !

@whatdoyouwantfromme Oh wow fingers crossed for you! @Moussemum Have you tried clomid? My friend was the same and doctor prescribed it to her and she fell pregnant on second lot

@Moussemum hope ur ok. Are you planning on testing again?

I can't believe I'm only 5dpo. It feels like day 35.

@whatdoyouwantfromme I POAS for you!
I took a test this morning and it was BFN. Only an internet cheapy though.

I'm tracking my BBT and going by that I'm 8 DPO, I had a slight dip in temp 2/3 days ago and some cramps which I'm hoping was implantation. My temp has gone even higher now, fingers crossed it stays up.

What test did you use that got the faint pink @Moussemum? Like @MrsP4 says the CB are not the most sensitive. FRER are the most sensitive I believe.

Lol I know @hopeful31 goes slowly doesn't it!
