TTC buddies needed DESPERATELY

I desperately need some TTC buddies. We've just started trying for no.3 and we haven't told anyone. I'm bursting but with no one to talk to. I realise this makes me sound like a total sap

Everything crossed for you @dizzy85. I've got a couple of days left of my AF, I've downloaded a few trackers so hopefully this will help but I don't know what my cycles will be like yet, I've been regular while on contraception but I don't know if it'll change now I'm not

Squiff70 · 03/05/2019 11:53

Morning (just) all,

Got a faint positive OPK this morning - ovulation due around 7th May :D

How's everyone doing?

Louise190 · 03/05/2019 12:34

Oh you must let us know immediately @dizzy85 🤞🏻
I start my TWW now but in Marrakech for the first week of it so hopefully won't be too torturous!!!

LuciBee · 03/05/2019 13:05

Still no luck with a positive opk, I usually get a peak one on cd15/16, it’s cd20 today and still nothing!! I usually have a 26-28 day cycle so not much more time really. Having a period for 12 days has really buggered this month up! No idea where I am!

@mrsb899 I haven’t had leakage as such, but took my bra off a couple of days ago and had 2 stains where my nipples were?!?!! It wasn’t a colour, more like an oil stain... very odd.

LuciBee · 03/05/2019 13:08

@dizzy85 I would have caved and tested by now! How many dpo are you?

Kinsella82 · 03/05/2019 14:09

@dizzy85 good luck for tomorrow!! I'm the same. Trying to hold out til tomorrow and do a frer. I'll be 11dpo then.
So nervous to do it at the same time. Kind of want to avoid it just Incase Cos I cant face more disappointment.

I've a friend doing ivf who had a failed cycle on Wednesday and my sister in law who just announced her pregnancy last week just had a miscarriage yesterday so feeling all over the place for them :( xx

MrsB899 · 03/05/2019 14:59

@dizzy85 my FRER just arrived I'll be resting in the morning too if I can get through the day without caving. How do you feel

MrsB899 · 03/05/2019 15:01

@LuciBee thats exactly what the marks on my bra was like and I can feel when it's happening. Very strange

@Cupcakes1234 Thankyou 😄 hope af goes quick so you can get down too it! Will you use opks aswell? Hope your cycles stay nice and regular.

@Louise190 I sure will do! Oh how lovely, that will be a great way to take your mind off it 😎enjoy your holiday and fingers crossed for you.

@LuciBee I'm only gonna be either 10/11 DPO so still early but it's the longest I've ever waited to test I'm impressed with myself😂

@Kinsella82 Thankyou, we are about the same time! Is it your first test tomorrow aswell? I'm also scared to test too, I'm excited coz it feels like I've been waiting forever but also want to avoid the disappointment so definitely feeling the same there! 🤞🏻for you!
Sorry about your friend and sister in law that's really sad.

@MrsB899 I got 2 packs of FRER today all ready to go 😄 have you tested today? I'm actually feeling really rough been coming down with another cold these past few days and I keep getting myself at it having all sorts of symptoms but it's probably all in my crazy mind 😂 how are you feeling?

dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 16:33

@Squiff70 sounds like the time to get busy DTD, have fun 😄

Kinsella82 · 03/05/2019 16:38

@dizzy85 it's nerve wrecking isn't it. This is our fourth cycle and I'm more than ready to be finished TTC and get on with being pregnant!

student26 · 03/05/2019 16:41

I did a test the other morning just because Icould. Was nothing on it when I left the bathroom. Went back a few hours later and there was a faint line. Waited until morning and took this. I was gobsmacked!! I’m keeping my fingers firmly crossed and hoping and holding AF does not come on Sunday.

MrsB899 · 03/05/2019 16:42

@dizzy85 I actually feel really good. Boobs are still sore but I normally get that before AF my cold is going thank god and I have no symptoms at all other than the ones I convince myself are there but actually aren't 😆 I haven't tested today I'm going to tomorrow but I'm pretty sure it'll be negative

OP posts:
Squiff70 · 03/05/2019 16:45

@dizzy85 Yes but we're both too tired today, lol!

@student26 That's pretty conclusive, congratulations!

Kinsella82 · 03/05/2019 17:04

Congratulations @student26 x

dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 19:52

@Kinsella82 It really is nerve wracking! This is our 5th cycle I'd love it to be the last 😊

@MrsB899 Thats good your feeling good! I was feeling alright yesterday then got home from work and suddenly felt like I'd been hit by a bus😷 I've got my fingers crossed for you tomorrow! I just had a nap..it's been a long week 😄 and woke up with really achy knees and a small chin spot coming on which is starting to make me think I'm just gonna get AF now but let's hope not 🤞🏻!

dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 19:52

@student26 congratulations 😊

Kinsella82 · 03/05/2019 20:13

@dizzy85 I came home this evening and stupidly caved and did a frer. Urine was fairly diluted and I had only peed about an hour beforehand too. Of course it was a bfn :( I'm so mad with myself for not holding on til the morning. It's given me a really bad feeling and I feel crap now.

Sorry for the moan. Let me know how you get on if you test in the morning x

Cupcakes1234 · 03/05/2019 20:21

Not planning to use OPKS but will have to see what happens first 😊

MrsB899 · 03/05/2019 20:38

@dizzy85 I've had a couple of spots come up too 😩 I'm really crampy today so I'm sure AF is on her way. I'm not gonna use OPKs next month just DTD every other day. I don't want to obsess over lines all month again haha. Fingers crossed for you for tomorrow xx

OP posts:
dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 20:46

@Kinsella82 I've done that so many times before, drunk loads and the urines been practically water with a tint of yellow 🤦‍♀️ the amount of tests I've wasted is unreal, but it's this ttc that messes with all logic 😂. Hopefully tomorrow is better for you. Don't worry about moaning lol that's what this is here for to let it all out 😂 I'll probably be on one tomorrow if it's negative!
Have you had any symptoms going on? I'm starting to get the fear af is gonna come these last days in the tww are definitely the hardest! I'll be sure to let u know x

Kinsella82 · 03/05/2019 20:52

@dizzy85 it's like a drug or something. I just couldn't stop myself!!!! It's terrible what this TWW does to us!!

Over the last few days I've had some cramps, boobs have been very sore/massive which doesn't normally happen for me, an emotional wreck and sooo tired. I'm probably reading into the symptoms too much but they're hard to ignore!!

Good luck tomorrow x

dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 21:27

@MrsB899 hopefully we are both wrong and it's not af 🤞🏻 I'm trying to stay positive but when you have these things going on it throws you down again..yer if this month isn't the lucky one I think I might try the same way. Good luck for tomorrow too 😊x

Louise190 · 03/05/2019 21:37

DP and I had a heart to heart this PM and he told me I need to calm down about it 😞 what will be will be, he says. Men really don't have a clue! They can just pick it up and drop it when they please whilst we're still here questioning the functionality of our ovaries!

dizzy85 · 03/05/2019 21:38

@Kinsella82 it definitely brings out the inner crazy 🤪😂! It's hard not to read into them, at this point anything to me starts becoming a pregnancy symptom. Let's hope they are good signs!!
Good luck for tomorrow too x
