Anyone else in the TWW and want to keep each other sane?

@Raizelrea aha finally! 😅😅

Raizelrea · 27/08/2019 12:44

@AliSxo Yes I know what you mean about testing on a work day, it would distract you too much no matter what the result. I will also be testing on Saturday though not having high hopes as it will only be 9DPO for me. Your 11DPO should be more promising - though if it's negative it doesn't mean you're out, apparently some people only get a BFP a week after their missed period!

Hi everyone! My AF is technically due 1st of sept but I didn't ovulate until 5ish days after my app expected so i think I'll be due on about the 6th of September! This Tww is killing me 😩😩😩

Raizelrea · 27/08/2019 18:08

Hi @november90 I know, I was fine the first few days but now at 5 DPO I'm imagining symptoms left right and centre. This afternoon I had a decaf coffee which normally just tastes like milky water to me, but today it seemed strong like an espresso. I realise it's too early to have any real symptoms so driving myself nuts 😄 When did you ovulate?

AliSxo · 27/08/2019 18:55

Thanks @Raizelrea I think if it was negative on a work day I'd be in a vile mood but at least the positive would be I'd be distracted by work. Yes I know what you mean it might not be BFP until week after AF is due so even a few negative tests might not mean I'm out. Are you testing Saturday? Xx

Raizelrea · 27/08/2019 19:14

@AliSxo Yes I will do, though I'd be very surprised if the results are noteworthy, with it being so early. After that I'll not test till the 6th September when I should hopefully get a better idea! Only 3 days to go till the first test, fingers crossed it's a BFP for you! 😊

AliSxo · 27/08/2019 19:51

Thanks @Raizelrea same to you!! Hopefully BFP for all of us!! I know I'll be so tempted to test earlier than Saturday, I did have cramps on Friday and lower back ache Saturday but a lot of people on here talk about tingly nipples which I haven't had so hoping I might get a few more symptoms xx

Raizelrea · 27/08/2019 20:18

@AliSxo Ah yes same, all sorts of cramping going on but my boobs seem pretty normal. Then again a lot of the symptoms can just be in our heads and there's people who's first symptom is that second line! 😊

Blossomingflower94 · 27/08/2019 20:35

Sounds so weird to say I'm hoping for sore boobs 😂 currently just the occasional cramping. Lasts about 10 minutes and then calms down. Other than that no symptoms at 6DPO.

@Blossomingflower94 same! I read people have them and I'm like do I? Are mine sore!m?! Sadly not but maybe soon!! I had cramping and lower back ache 3/4DPO but other than that and maybe a bit mood swings nothing. Still hoping for BFP as I'm only 7DPO xxxx

daisy129437 · 27/08/2019 21:10

I can't help but symptom spot! Argh!
Currently sore and heavy boobs, bloated, constipated and generally moody haha Keeping my fingers crossed.

AliSxo · 27/08/2019 21:12

@daisy129437 I'm moody too!! I haven't been symptom spotting too badly but if you've got sore boobs that's a good sign xx

Raizelrea · 27/08/2019 21:13

Adding heartburn to my list of symptoms... I swear this is all on my head 😆

itssquidstella · 27/08/2019 21:39

Haha @AliSxo I know what you mean about the boob obsession - I keep poking mine and thinking 'did that hurt? Was it sore?!'. This tww is driving me mad!

MrsMeow2019 · 27/08/2019 21:43

I'm 5 DPO and keep thinking I've got cramps ... only to realise I've been reading mumsnet for too long and need a wee 😆

november90 · 27/08/2019 21:47

@Raizelrea aww bless you! I'm about 5 days too! I don't really have any symptoms other then the dreams which is having the opposite effect, it's making me feel stressed and nagative 🤦🏼‍♀️ My don was a surprise pregnancy so I didn't have to go through all of this hassle last time! I remember that my symptoms really were the normal pms symptoms and since I've had them I don't really get any other then moodiness, weird dreams, thrush and headache so I can't wait for that! Haha!

AliSxo · 27/08/2019 22:49

@itssquidstella weirdly I got them about an hour ago just one itchy nipple which I found odd and coincidental but I won't read into it too much!! Driving me mad I can't wait to test at the weekend! When are you testing? Xx

itssquidstella · 28/08/2019 08:12

@AliSxo I'm not due till the 5th or 6th but I'm going to hold out and only test on the 7th if AF hasn't arrived.

Fingers crossed for you this weekend!

AliSxo · 28/08/2019 08:57

Thanks @itssquidstella not long for you to wait it'll fly by xxx

itssquidstella · 28/08/2019 09:03

I hope so! I'm impatient at the best of times but this waiting is the worst!

AmzLouxo · 28/08/2019 10:00

Hi, new to posting.

I'm 24 and been TTC for 18 months. I'm hoping these threads will keep me sane each month whilst in the 2WW.

I'm 10dpo and AF due in 2 days, when's best to test? And would you go first response or clear blue?

flossy12 · 28/08/2019 10:42

@itssquidstella I'm testing the 7th too 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@AmzLouxo welcome ☺️☺️ I thought you'd be a pro by now 😅 probably best to wait until AF day sweetie 😘

AliSxo · 28/08/2019 10:52

Hi @AmzLouxo I prefer FR and I'm 8DPO and I'll test on Saturday although I know I'll want to test on Friday morning!! Xx

AmzLouxo · 28/08/2019 10:53

@flossy12 haha you'd think but it doesn't get any easier!

I have low progesterone and my DP and I are waiting for fertility treatment so it means so much to us at this stage. I just feel different this month so waiting seems impossible Blush

AmzLouxo · 28/08/2019 10:54

@AliSxo I just want to POAS all the time, I'm so impatient haha x
