Anyone in the TWW???

[RoRosmama]

Hi everyone,

So as the title says is there anyone in the TWW?
DH and I said we would try for number 2 after summer but whoops we've had a couple of slips. I looked at my ovulation app (which has never failed me before to get pregnant) and both times it was in my fertile days.

So here's the confusion.. I apparently was in my fertile days from 8th-13th June.
13th June being the day of ovulation. We DTD 8th June and 11th June. The last couple of days I have had very bad cramps low down. This can't be implantation yet so was it ovulation pains? My CM was snot like some of it thick but also some of it was slippery too sorry TMI!! am so confused, feeling I've missed the boat.
This TWW is stressful. I've never temped or taken OPK's as it's always been quite easy for me to fall pregnant (I've had a lot of miscarriages )
We are lucky enough to have a DD though.
DH is actually quite excited that we could be pregnant but I just don't know and feeling quite impatient!

Love to hear from you guys and your stories too!

@Treaclepie19 @LA89 cramping is a good sign!! It's got to be implantation right? I'm around 6dpo I believe. Not long for you now @Treaclepie19 😊

@LA89 my AF pains are awful from the first day and they last about 3 days where I'm super heavy and then it gets lighter. These cramps do resemble AF but like you say they're just not as bad at all and don't last as long, like the ache isn't constantly there for me it comes and goes.

@RoRosmama it could be!
We need to just fast forward the next week or so Haha!

@Treaclepie19 🤞🏻 for you 😁
Cramps at 6dpo sounds like a good sign 🤞🏻

@RoRosmama sorry I missed your earlier message!
Awww I was sneezing loads yesterday and today am a bit stuffy! Yes yes flutters! I'm not getting other pains yet but we'll see! Boob things sounds good as it's not the norm for you! Hope it's our month! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@LA89 unusual is a good sign 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Abi58 just recounted and I might be 5dpo 🙈 😭
Hurry up testing day!
I have my fingers crossed for all of us.

@Treaclepie19 I'm 4 and it feels so long away. Ideally needs to be Saturday I test but I'm worried I'll cave at 10 again....just know I'll want to know but if I get an early positive again I won't be happy as I'll just be worried it will happen again 😩🤦🏻‍♀️
You going to test on Friday next week that will be 14dpo if you're 5 now?

@Abi58 its all such a worry isn't it?!

I'm probably going to test on Tuesday because that's the day AF is due. I'd prefer to hold out for a few days after though in case my cycle is a bit longer. Not sure it's completely settled down from my last pregnancy.

Should say, I've always had a 9/10 day luteal phase in the past.
Next month I'm temping!! Can't deal with not knowing.

@Treaclepie19 temping sounds like a good idea. I don't even know if I ovulated for sure. It's just what my app has predicted. I will certainly be looking into temping when we start properly trying, that's if this month we aren't successful.

@RoRosmama I used to temp when we were trying with our 3yo. Definitely worth a go :)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this month but if not at least I have a plan.

Shall we have a list of when we're all planning to test/when AF is due ladies? So we know when everyone is planning for?

AF is due Friday 28th for me based on 14 DPO

I know I won't hold out that long so planning to do a FRER test probably Wednesday the 26th so 1 week today.

What are you guys doing?

Praying for a tonne of BFPs on this thread!

@Treaclepie19 it really is feel like I can't win, I want to know but then I don't want to go through the heartbreak again 😩 i need to hide my tests 😂

That sounds good that's the earliest I will test but hoping to hold our til the Friday or day next week

Temping does help! Finally got my bbt this morning without is being questionable (not enough sleep or waking to early lol) and was raised so I definItely ovulated 😁

And @RoRosmama I'm not expert but done it for 2 months and read loads about it so if you have any questions I'm happy to help if I can

@LA89 sounds like a great idea did me to the list
Af due sat 29th based on 14 days after ov
I want to hold to test until 29th ....28th at the earliest but will need help holding out that long! I'll be tempted from Tuesday 😂

@LA89 I'm exactly the same as you. AF due 28th so want to hold out and test then! If I do cave then it will be a couple of days before like you so 26th
@Abi58 I shall be tapping you up for how this all works if not successful this month

@LA89 that sounds a good idea!
I'll definitely be testing by friday as we have a wedding that day.

Can I join please ladies! AF due on Saturday 22nd and O was last Monday so I'm currently 9 DPO but getting negatives. I'm really hoping this is my month - we DTD 5 times leading up to O so fingers crossed!

@RoRosmama 🤞🏻 you won't have to!

@ClaraLane welcome! It's still super early so I wouldn't worry too much 😁

@Abi58 thank you x hope so!!
@ClaraLane 9dpo is very early. Sounds like you're in a very good chance though. Keep is updated! 😊

Anyone think it's ok if I take painkillers? Paracetamol should be ok right? I have such a sore throat and generally feeling quite ill. This can't be pregnancy related anymore. I feel dreadful., never remember feeling this bad in the beginning with Rosa.

@RoRosmama I'm not sure but if alcohol is ok before a positive I'd say paracetamol shouldn't hurt. Does google say anything?

@RoRosmama ibphone is a no no. Paracetamol is fine :)

I'm testing on the 28th, which is forever away I've already gone through 4 tests.

I really feel like I'm going to come on. PMS going on with cramps.
But I hadn't had AF visit yet.

@RoRosmama paracetamol is fine in pregnancy xxx

I'm treating myself to a g&t or 3 🙈

Go for it @treaclepie19 sounds like you deserve it.

Based on the Flo App and OPKs I’m now 13 DPO. I’ve just been through my Flo app though and my cycles vary from 26 - 30 days and I’m on cycle day 27 today. Not testing until Saturday though as that is cycle day 30. I’ve never had a cycle of more than 30 days.

@RoRosmama

Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks everyone! That's so true about the alcohol!! I've heard ibuprofen is a no. Think I briefly remember taking paracetamol before. @Treaclepie19 enjoy your G&T's I'd partake if I wasn't feeling so crap!
@SwimmerGirl40 any symptoms. Exciting you'll be able to test soon.
@MrsHufflepuffMS PMS symptoms are so similar to pregnancy symptoms. You're not out yet xx

It’s a bit difficult to tell re symptoms as DD was unplanned I wasn’t obsessively checking like I am now 😀

I’ve got white liquid CM, am over sensitive and highly strung, can’t decide if my wee smells a bit funny.

I’ve got some light cramping just to the right and a bit lower than my belly button too. Think that’s too high to be my womb though. Could be wind. Sorry about the TMI!
