TWW - testing 4th September

[Blossomingflower94]

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

@AliSxo

Thank you! No, not any symptoms apart from a bit hormonal I suppose. My partner could tell I was pregnant, he said to take a test so I must be acting different. Physically I have pressure, cramping. I hope that's not a bad sign

Hi all, congratulations to those with bfps already!

I'm now 8dpo (possibly only 7) and have had a really horrible taste in my mouth since last night. I'm feeling pretty rough generally so don't know whether I'm just coming down with something or it's a possible symptom. I'm trying to hold off on testing for a while anyway!

@Jojowash awww that's wonderful news! Congratulations! I'm so happy for you and your rainbow 💚

@itssquidstellaI've heard a strange taste in the mouth is a good sigh for pregnancy so it sounds like you could be into a winner 😀

@TTC1993 sorry if I've missed it somewhere else of the thread, but did you retest today? How did you get on? 😀

@AliSxo 🤞🏻🤞🏻 your not out until AF😘

@Chez13 I've had some white creamy CM since basically OV day 😂 I'm convinced today that we haven't caught 😩

@Jojowash Congratulations on your BFP . Such an early BFP as well, I might have to test tomorrow morning now hehee!

@Jojowash Congratulations, that's amazing! Incredible that you got a BFP a week before your missed period already - makes me feel that perhaps testing tomorrow isn't a total waste of time 😄

Guys I'm feeling a bit emotional :( AF is 1 week away and like clockwork, I have started to feel a bit itchy down there and this always happens a week before she arrives. That and 0 other pregnancy symptoms has just made me feel it isn't my month. My sister is pregnant and just got her dating scan. She's struggling with morning sickness meaning she's around a lot as were helping with her look after my niece whilst she's unwell so it's just a constant reminder. I don't understand the phrase 'just enjoy ttc', it's just horrible. I have like 40 day cycles so my next ovulation will likely be the end of sept :(:(:(

Sorry you're feeling like that, @november90. I'm not enjoying the process either - I just want to be pregnant already, dammit! It must be hard with your sister being pregnant too. Fingers crossed you're lucky next cycle and the waiting will be over! X

@november90 I feel the same I've not had many symptoms and I'm due AF on 4th September. My friend is pregnant and we're all doing something this weekend and I'm happy for her but I want my BFP!! You're not out till AF arrives so try and keep positive xxx

@november90 I feel the same. We went round to our friends who have a 3 month old last week and he is gorgeous and my OH is so great playing with him. They conceived first time round and even though we’ve only been trying for 3 months just makes me sad why it happened so quickly for them and not us. Seems like I see a pregnancy announcement every week on Facebook.
Now just waiting for AF to finish so we can focus on DTD again. Round and round we go! Hopefully not much longer for all of us here though 🤞.

Thank you ladies for the messages, it's so easy to feel alone in this, but we're not 💗
My sister got caught first time with both pregnancies which is amazing for her but really hits hard at my anxieties!
I know I need to just chill out and stop comparing myself to others m but it's just so hard 😩 It will be our time soon, I'm sure it will! 💗

9DPO, just tested and of course it's negative. I guess I will have a drink at the wedding I'm going to today, though don't see myself going overboard. We got to my parents' place and them And OH were having drinks with dinner, and both beer and wine smelled really bad and vinegary to me. We had been up since 3am to get to their place though so it's very possible I was just tired.

12dp bfn so reckon im out, always gutting and doesnt get easier. Going to a wedding today so the drinks can flow at least

I'm FREAKING out. I took a cheap pregnancy test this AM at 10 DPO and I think I see a second line!!

It won't let me post a photo 😩 going to see if it's any darker tonight. Technically not FMU either as I've just finished a night shift.

Fingers crossed!! How do you all know how many DPO you are? Do you know exactly when you ovulated? I think I felt it when I woke up in the night when I was ill but not sure....if I take the last day of peak so 48 hrs after peak arrived then that is three days later!

@mrsc1987 I wouldn't say you're necessarily out. It's very common not to get a BFP till your missed period.

@Blossomingflower94 Oooh! Fingers crossed! How exciting!

@Chaosonthehorizon To be honest mine's an estimate! I thought I felt some light pain on my left side on the day I think I ovulated, and was knackered a couple days after so figured I had to be in the luteal phase. Also the same day Flo was predicting. So might well be that it's totally not the case!

BFN for me this morning, getting fed up now so I might not test for a few days. AF due Wednesday so maybe I'm testing slightly too early at 11DPO xx

@Blossomingflower94 eeek! Congratulations that's lovely news 😊

@AliSxo I did a test today and BFN too, AF due tues-thurs. we're not out yet ...

Hmm think I will try to hold out until last predicted af date so 9th or 10th. I don’t have any tests at the mo anyway as am at a friends

@MrsMeow2019 how many DPO are you? Xx

@AliSxo I'm either 9 or 11 I think. Tried OPKs but didn't get a positive l. Did notice EWCM one day which is the day my Clue says I ovulated and would make me 9 DPO. But my cycles are 24-27 days :/.

Just been researching pregnancy tests , read that Frer pick up HCG at 6.5 miu and think the ones I have are 20 .... tempted to do a Frer tomorrow or Monday. I could just be more sensible and leave it to see if AF shows up by Thursday 🤔

Hi @MrsMeow2019 my AF is due on Wednesday so I'm tempted to stop testing now and let nature tell me, I'll hopefully know where I stand in the next few days xxx

I’ve got a spot coming so I think I am out as had one last month too. Weirdly though I don’t think I have had spots for months maybe years before ttc this time!

Not 100% anyway so I'll just have to wait till tomorrow to do another. Might get some other tests from work tonight.

@Blossomingflower94 did u get your line on a work one or a FRER?
