Lola871 · 19/02/2019 13:48

I can definitely see the line but hard to see if it has any colour to it! I guess test again tomorrow?

OhMarnie · 19/02/2019 13:50

@Lola871 yeah I will test tomorrow am with fmu. Thanks for your input!

starkid · 19/02/2019 14:03

@OhMarnie - I can see something in the second photo Shock yes definitely test again tomorrow! FX Smile

LokiCat · 19/02/2019 14:20

@Babytrain89 I'm sorry AF turned up! I hope you manage to get some answers from the doctors appointment.

@OhMarnie I definitely see a hint of line, but hopefully you see something more in the morning with fmu! Finger and toes crossed for you!!

Been feeling so tired all day.. convinced myself to bring my gym kit with me so I can go after work but all I want to do is go home and put my feet up 🙈

BabySquid · 19/02/2019 14:29

@OhMarnie I also think I see a line but it is quite thin and pale, fingers x'd for a better one with FMU tomorrow.

I'm 5dpo today and already starting to symptom spot haha 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️
Had a very productive day yesterday after my mini meltdown and released my inner Marie Kondo on my drawers, off to get some boxes to separate out my clothes within my drawers after work. Keep my mind off this horrid TWW!!

OhMarnie · 19/02/2019 14:30

Thanks ladies. I just did another one just now (managed to squeeze some wee out 😂) and there's nothing there at all, not even a hint of a line. So probably negative but I will check in the morning just to be sure. I would have been very surprised!

starkid · 19/02/2019 14:42

@BabySquid - Oh god how nice is it to look at all your clothes neat in rows after doing a Marie Kondo on them?! I've only done my t-shirt drawer so far, but it's so much better now and I'm keeping it up with each wash too Smile

BabySquid · 19/02/2019 14:47

@starkid it's amazing!! I just need to do the drawers in the spare room now but I'm going to need about 3 days to do them haha

Lemonysherbet · 19/02/2019 15:06

@trashkitten10 please can you add me, I’m 30 and it’s officially cycle 1 :)

thumper59 · 19/02/2019 15:24

@OhMarnie fingers crossed for the morning

@BabySquid I'm 5DPO and it's so boring

DayDreamer1707 · 19/02/2019 15:49

@OhMarnie I can see something!! Excited for tomorrow for you. I actually think some people wake up and think 'I am going to be a tit today'. Well unfortunately for them I woke up in a mood that was taking none of it 😂 x

@BabySquid I do love a good HINCH, not seen Marie Kondo x

@Lola871 might just be that you ovulated later, never know you could just need to give it a couple more days. Not what you want to hear, your TWW has turned into THREE week wait 😣

@starkid think I am just jealous as I only have rubbish slight cramps and tiredness.

Roll on Salmon and Snuggles night with the OH, that's what I have asked for tonight. Want to start a new series too.... FX I make it to 13DPO

BabySquid · 19/02/2019 15:56

@thumper59 when are you due? I'm Friday the 1st which I have off, glad I do too coz if it's negative yesterday's meltdown will look like a ray of bloody sunshine lol

@DayDreamer1707 I love Mrs Hinch, it was her who I heard mention Marie Kondo, check out the folding on her insta.. better yet search #mariekondo lol you'll be hooked.

starkid · 19/02/2019 16:14

@BabySquid - yep I learnt how to fold my t-shirts via Mrs Hinch's IG!

LikeTheFruit · 19/02/2019 16:45

Hey. I'm CD24 and 8DPO and fully invested in symptom spotting. Have very sore boobs which is very unlike me and they seem bigger (they're pretty small to begin with). Also absolutely shattered, though came off night shift yesterday but usually tip top the day after. Determined not to test until AF due next Wednesday, fortunately only have ICs at home so no point. Hoping for lots of BFPs this and next week for everyone

@OhMarnie if I squint a little I think I see a line FX for your next test.

@Lemonysherbet I used OPKs this cycle for first time. More as confirmation that I might be ovulating as things has been all over the shop since stopping pill.

@LokiCat my boobs have been killing me since about 5dpo. Don't usually get sore boobs before AF but trying not to get too hopeful.

@thumper59 I'm having very vivid dreams too but often do when I do nights shifts which I was at w/e. Do your drama have a common theme?

@Lola871 FX you'll get BFP soon

@Lozzlepop I admire your self control not testing til Thursday.

@DayDreamer1707 long cycles are the worst. I thought 31 days was long enough!! FX for you.

@MrsR16 hope you're enjoying new car and phone. I need distractions like that to make TWW faster.

BostonFern · 19/02/2019 16:52

Hi @DayDreamer1707 , I got a really good nights sleep last night, thanks ☺️ I'm also still managing to resist testing, I think at CD25 last cycle I'd already done two tests 😭 Going to test Friday morning I think.

@Lozzlepop I'm very lucky, DP is really good at getting things done and helping keep ontop of housework etc.

@Babytrain89 sorry AF arrived.

@OhMarnie I think I see a faint line- 🤞 for tomorrow's test.

thumper59 · 19/02/2019 16:53

@BabySquid due Monday if I'm on a 28 day cycle but it seems I ovulated late so we'll see! I'm at a gender reveal that day too. Fun 😐

@LikeTheFruit not usually. Last nights was that I didn't have a partner and I was stuck having decide between previous ones. Then I could of sworn I'd got up and gone to toilet and had loads of blood but that didn't happen it was in my dream 🤔. I don't know. Because I haven't been thinking much about Ttc this cycle really I know it'll be on my sub concoionce (omg. Don't know how to spell that 😂) though. Was so realistic I was so confused when I woke up

DayDreamer1707 · 19/02/2019 17:01

@LikeTheFruit my cycles are 26 days on average but can vary so we shall see how this goes. Test after you have missed if you can wait.

@BostonFern my AF is due Thurs/Fri think I will test Saturday when I am official late x

@BabySquid I am already obsessed with Mrs Hinch, my OH thinks I am crazy but he is loving all the smelly stuff ha. I have said there are worse things to get obsessed about x

starkid · 19/02/2019 17:06

@DayDreamer1707 - Ah see Mrs Hinch hasn't quite made me less lazy, so I watch her going mad, then think I'm all that just for deciding to dust for the first time in weeks 😂

Lemonysherbet · 19/02/2019 17:35

@likethefruit it’s my first month too and I thought they would make things clearer but they’re currently getting a little darker and then a little lighter so now I’m more confused!!!

lizzie198 · 19/02/2019 17:48

I've just realised that I've got a metallic taste in my mouth. Thought it was the water making my tea and coffee taste weird but it isn't going after I've had something else to eat or drink so symptom spotting has started and I'm only 6dpo so it's not even possible for symptoms 🙈 please someone give me some sanity!

MrsR16 · 19/02/2019 18:13

@LikeTheFruit aw thank you! Picking car up Friday and currently running two phones as I'm waiting for my number to move across! 😂

Babytrain89 · 19/02/2019 18:29

Wow thank you all for your responses!

@Katbecool you're exactly right,I am just impatient and would just like to know it will happen one day! Very good point about being thankful for no normal...I hadn't looked at it that way.

Thanks @starkid I will try and be more positive. I think I had a bit of a deflates moment as have heard stories of both,but easier to focus on the 'it happened immediately' when you're feeling flat about it all.

@daydreamer1707 lol at people at work pissing you off! That made me chuckle...not that they're pissing you off of course...Just the context. Lookibg forward to cycle 5 journey with you!

Thanks @lokicat I'm hoping they're at least sympathetic and not dismissive!

@bostonfern thank you! I'm sorry it did but also grateful cos at least I know either way!

Going to try and be a bit more positive now! Not sure why the disappointment of the last two have hit so hard! Fingers crossed for everyone.

LuckyPenguin · 19/02/2019 19:14

Just catching up on the posts since last night!

@orangeloo - don't ever feel alone!

@MrsR16 - what car did you buy?

@wildrabbit - I'm a newbie too! 😊

@FlapJackered - I am so so sorry to hear this. Heartbreaking news. Sending you lots of love ❤️

@DayDreamer1707 - I'm keeping everything crossed for you! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Lozzlepop - the gym? At lunch time? You crazy! 🤣

@thumper59 - I'm 7DPO and needed a wee in the night too! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also have an upset tummy frequently (stress/anxiety related!) so not a symptom for me 😔

@TrashKitten10 - that's a lot to keep track of! Mine are spot on 😊

@Lola871 - that is a long cycle! Fingers crossed you get a BFP soon!

@Babytrain89 - so sorry AF turned up 😔 I'm hoping mine stays away this month! I know what you mean, seems impossible to accidentally fall pregnant when you plan it to this extent!!!

@KatBeCool - very well put👌🏼

@OhMarnie - eeeeek I see something! Fingers crossed tomorrow's test is clearer!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@lizzie198 - I hope for symptoms too! I'm burping, tummy feels like it's full of air, odd cravings for food, couldn't stomach coffee today & I don't feel hungry at all & usually all I do is eat!. I'm 7DPO. 🤦🏻‍♀️

DayDreamer1707 · 19/02/2019 19:15

Well think I'm out ladies, just had some pink on the tissue when I went to the loo...oh well 😔

Lola871 · 19/02/2019 19:28

@DayDreamer1707 that doesn't mean your out! I've had brownish and pinkish (tiny amounts) over the last 3 days and still no sign of AF!

I thought I had sore boobs earlier and thought ah finally, AF is on the way, then realised I did bench press at the gym yesterday and it was just my pecs 🤣

@LuckyPenguin I think I'm just waiting for AF to be honest but thank you!
