I'm pretty certain I ovulated on Friday, after 2 months of constant negative opks. So these next two weeks are going to drive me fully barmy! Anyone else out there in the TWW?

I ve just ordered femSense patches, saw them advertised here last month, they are supposed to do all the temperature measuring for you. lets see...

Hey all! Congrats for all the BFP!! Always great news to hear ❤
I'm ttc number 2!
Looking for some buddies during the two week wait lol I am only 2DPO!
Super hopeful for some good news, anyone else quite early on in the 2ww?? X

Hopeful2020 · 09/09/2019 16:35

Afternoon all, hope you don't mind me jumping on.
I'm currently 11dpo and had been pretty cool about the 2ww... Until today! 😂 So close but still so far! I'm going to hold on til Thurs when period would be due to test.
I'm month 4 TTC baby 3, the other 2 were very easy so this is all new, all seems to have slowed down now I'm 35.
Trying not to symptom spot as there have been times I've had ALL the symptoms and not been PG, and times when I was PG and had nothing, so who knows!
Lovely to see some BFPs already, congrats to all & hopefully it's a lucky thread!
Hang in there and good luck to everyone xx

Hi ladies, I said I would update you all so the pic attached is my tests (most recent at the top taken this morning). I had been having a small amount of brown spotting the last two days but it seems to have stopped today. I bought a digital test, does anyone know when is the best time to take it? Today would’ve been the first day of my period. Smile

@Moongirl10 eeekkk all the BFPs this month! We're all so lucky! 💞 I did mine with FMU I was 12dpo with my FRER and 13dpo with the digital

Moongirl10 · 09/09/2019 19:52

@flossy12 yay thank you! I will probably take it tomorrow morning then 😀

flossy12 · 09/09/2019 19:56

@Moongirl10 Can't believe how many of us have had a BFP in the past 2 weeks 😱 it's insane! Good thing we don't all live in the save town 😅

Cake2 · 09/09/2019 20:04

Congrats @Moongirl10 💕💕 another May baby 🥰

Nicecupofcoco · 09/09/2019 20:27

Fantastic news, congratulation @Moongirl10 Smile

Pineapplebaby · 09/09/2019 21:58

@Moongirl10 that’s fantastic news; congratulations! Xx

Chaosonthehorizon · 09/09/2019 23:06

Hi hopeful2020 also ttc 3 here but waiting for OV. How old is your youngest now? Taking us longer this time too 😓

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 08:58

@Chaosonthehorizon I think there's a few of us in here trying for #3, so frustrating when it's just happened easily twice before! My youngest is 2 so hoping I get lucky soon so we'd have about a 3 year gap. Eldest is 10 though & she's v.helpful with her little bro! What ages are yours? How long have you been TTC this time?

I'm 12dpo today, trying not to get hopes up but cautiously optimistic as had a few good signs. But then I've been absolutely convinced before & been totally wrong!
So great to see all these BFP pics, makes me want to test now! Holding on til Thurs though, only 2 more days 🤞🏻
BBT was up high again today at 36.7 for the 2nd day in a row, apparently 3 days in a row is a good sign...

How is everyone else feeling today? X

ALittleBitAlexis · 10/09/2019 09:13

I gave in and did a frer today, at 10dpo. BFN. My lower abdomen is warm and a bit crampy so I think I'm out, although I don't normally get cramps until after AF arrives so it is a bit weird. Either way, this is CD25 so it's the longest cycle I've had for a few months, so I'm seeing the positive in that.

Fingers crossed we get some more BFPs on the thread!

MrssC92 · 10/09/2019 10:32

Congratulations on all the BFPs! Definitely a very lucky thread.
Af/bfp was due yesterday for me. I started spotting very lightly at 12dpo which lasted for about 24 hours and since then absolutely nothing. I've done tests just in case it was implantation bleeding bevause I never usually spot but all BFN! Think it's just my body teasing me. Just want af to start properly so i can be back to cd1 and start again.

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 13:42

@ALittleBitAlexis Boo, it's never nice to get a BFN, but 10dpo is still quite early, depending when implantation occurs. Even if not, a longer cycle sounds good - it's a good sign hormone levels are balanced 👍🏻 fingers crossed

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 13:46

@mrssc92 aww no, that's so annoying when it does that, it's like it's tricking you! I've had it a few times - only since TTC of course! - when it's been late for no reason or random spotting. I've even had hormone levels checked out this month cos of it. It's frustrating cos you just want it to come on and get on with it if it's coming. Feel your pain x

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 13:49

No spotting this month for me which I'm taking as a good sign, just had a tiny streak of brown the other day but that was all, nothing since so hoping that might have been something snuggling in... 🤞🏻

Woodlandwitch · 10/09/2019 16:02

@Hopeful2020 no spotting this month for me yet either
Not too sure what I should think as other than being irritable and exhausted all the fine I haven’t had any other symptoms.

CD 31 for me today out of a normally 33 or 34 day cycle so I expect to at least get spotting tomorrow and then AF by end of week

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 16:16

@Woodlandwitch Ooh we're around the same point, I'm cd 26 out of 28/29. Are you going to test or hold out?! Is this your first? The exhaustion could be something, I was absolutely wiped out with my first but not so much with baby 2.
It's all so hit n miss, I had implantation bleed with baby 1 but nothing with baby 2, I don't normally get any spotting but I've had it a few times recently but still not been PG!
I've just felt a bit hungrier than usual & a bit gassy & burpy! 😂

Woodlandwitch · 10/09/2019 16:24

This would be #2.

Number 1 I had noticeable implantation bleed, crazy dreams (of being pregnant) and needing th loo loads!

Woodlandwitch · 10/09/2019 16:25

Thinking about it, I’m probably just exhausted due to running around a toddler.
I’ve been really hungry too.
But that could also be because tired.

I was like an eating machine throughout pregnancy the first time.

Woodlandwitch · 10/09/2019 16:29

Only probably with me is that, we decided to TTC so had my coil out in July.

But now I’m waiting on an operation in 5 weeks time and they won’t do it if I’m pregnant. So we have been tried to hold off this month to restart in October.
But by the time I realised about the OP it still could have been too late.

I hadnt been panicking too much about it as I have PCOS and took ages to conceive the first

Nicecupofcoco · 10/09/2019 16:55

@ALittleBitAlexis your not out yet! 10dpo is still early to test.... Says she who tested today at 9dpo! Grin bfn for me too!!

Hopeful2020 · 10/09/2019 17:19

@Woodlandwitch Oh dear sounds like a tricky one, a bit of a double edged sword, guess it happens when it happens either way.
Symptoms are so frustrating cos they could all be something or nothing, and I've found that you only really notice them properly when you look back on it.
Fingers crossed for you, either way!

Chaosonthehorizon · 10/09/2019 19:28

Hopeful2020 youngest is 3 soon so am panicking about a bigger gap. This will be third/fourth month of trying and really thought we had managed it last month. Coming to the conclusion that brains and hormones are weird things. Just had my shortest cycle for years and now af seems to be rumbling on. Very odd. I also wait until I am late to test and then don’t have the sadness of a chemical
