Anyone starting the TWW

[Laur89]

Hey guys, anyone starting the TWW? I'm only 1dpo, due AF around 19th September. Anyone in the same boat??

@Gigi318 ahh yes one of each, they are little terrors half the time. Lol 😂
We are off swimming so no rest for the wicked. Ahh it's nearly Saturday and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻 xx

@Mich2020 thanks babes, same to you. And I'm sure they will enjoy swimming 👏🏻

@Gems7 welcome! How many dpo are you? My boobs aren't sore at all ready. A lot of nipple sensitivity last week but not as much this week. Our bodies are crazy aren't they!

@Gigi318 ohh yeah that is the WORST when the smells make you sick!! Ugh I remember the night I knew I was pregnant with my son I had made sautee potatoes, I woke up in the night and the smell of it made me heave!

@Mich2020 well i still feel positive for you girl!! Xxx

@Ellsbells112 eeeek this gives me hope babe. How old is your son? 8 if I remember correctly? Do you remember what the pregnancy was like? Although I know two pregnancies aren't the same!

Ahh thanks ladies. I'm so glad I found this forum, your all too kind xx

@Gigi318 I "think" I am 9dpo today but that's going off tracking on an app and from my cycle last month which was 24 days so it could be out slightly.
It's madness, I really "felt" pregnant a couple of months ago and was really disheartened when AF came so I'm trying not to get my hopes up but it's so hard. And I do feel different to normal this month, I NEVER get heartburn so that's unusual.
My son is 11 now and I'm 35 so it's a long time since I've been through this. I wasn't TTC when I had him.
What symptoms are you feeling? Xx

@Gems7 oh how lovely for you, it's so strange when you start overthinking what you notice. I had really bad backache last week. Cramping Mon-Weds but nothing today. And nausea on and off. Saturday was horrific. Today and Monday have been bad but not as bad at Saturday. Roll on test day 🤞🏻👏🏻💫 and I know what you mean about feeling pregnant! Although this will be #1 for us!

@Gigi318 I didn't really get any symptoms except for that one thing! Then when I found out I think I was 5 weeks or something (back then I knew nothing of tracking lol) then more symptoms like metallic taste in my mouth and gagging when brushing my teeth. I felt sick sometimes from eating dairy but I was never physically sick.

I was pregnant after that and I literally was ill, hungry, my boobs felt like they was going to drop off...literally everything under the sun and pregnancy test showed bfn. Waited a week then bfp, I went for an early scan like a week after that and I was ridiculously early I cannot remember how early but like 3-4 weeks, so I felt pregnant nearly straight after conception with that one!

But throughout my pregnancy with my son I just had heartburn mainly and aches, breast only ached later on xx

@Ellsbells112 amazing. I suppose it's hard to remember as childbirth sort of leaves more of a mark 🤣 hehehe! Wow, so crazy! Even hearing stories make me fell all warm and squishy hehehe!

All these symptoms you ladies are feeling are seeming promising! Can't believe it's only been just over a week since I started this thread, it feels like forever ago!! So today I've been feeling mild cramps like af is coming, I'm 10dpo and I've just looked again and according to both my tracking apps she isn't due until Monday ish, not sure why I'm getting cramps now? Is she just coming early or preparing me? I had convinced myself this was gonna be my month, but now I'm not so sure. It's so nice to have all you girls to talk to :)

2 days until AF for me and tests all negative so I’m out. Good luck to everyone else and i’ll See you all next month.

@Mooey89 I've done a test this morning and ask bfn, we're not out until af shows her ugly head surely??

@Laur89 it's flown by, hasn't it. This forum is such a valuable place to be - everyone is so kind and supportive! Eeeeek I hope so babe 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 and OMG, that's a good thing. I had cramps Monday-Weds (9-11dpo) and they've stopped now. AF due Sunday for me. I think it was a good thing, maybe either implantation or uterus expanding 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 so may not be AF. Do you usually get cramps 4 days before? Are they very mild??

@Mooey89 oh no! Are you sure? Do you feel as if AF is on her way??

It really has gone fast @Gigi318! Oh similar to me then, with me being 10dpo. I've had odd cramps since ovulation day really but not put it sown to anything 🤷‍♀️ I do usually get cramps, but I don't think they are normally this early? Unless it's a shorter cycle and will come on sooner 😆 how are you feeling today? I think il be testing again Sunday too then just accept it's not my month x

@Laur89 yes, I'm only a few days ahead. Hmm, may be a good thing or like you say it could be a shorter luteal phase - but let's choose the positive out of the two 🤞🏻 Sunday sounds like a good day to me! Exciting and not long to wait now. I'm feeling okay now. I was badly nauseous earlier, but it's calmed down now. Tired but then I didn't sleep well last night 🙄 have you noticed any other symptoms? X

@Gigi318 yeah it's crazy, I had a c section so it definitely over rode a lot of the pregnancy memories! I hope that the next one I can have natural!
@Laur89 you're right we all seem to be having some good signs going on! Lets keep it going ❤

@Mooey89 you arent out till AF comes :)

@Ellsbells112 yes that would be lovely. Hopefully no complications and you can 🤞🏻 and very true about the good signs. Go us! Hopefully 🤞🏻💫

@Gigi318
I do feel a bit - really hormonal and crampy😂
I’ve been trying for 11 months so it’s not a surprise.

I know we aren’t technically out until AF but I don’t feel like it’s my month.

I was recently tagged in my old TWW thread and everyone else on there is pregnant now, quite pregnant too, apart from me 😭.

I don’t know. I always get really down around this time of the month when the hope ebbs away. I have to try to keep realistic about it or the crash is awful.

Sorry to be Debbie downer today! X

Hey me again.. feeling much better after that swim. Or maybe it was the sleep I had earlier haha!! Still no sign at all that I'm going to bleed. Although I feel so hungry, lack of food today completely missed lunch and had leek and potato soup for tea. I know the chocolate will be coming out when the kids go to bed lol 😂 xx

@Mooey89 don't worry lovely, we all have down periods. I'm actually feeling quite anxious tonight and no idea why! Hormones, hey 🙄 that's true, I do know what you mean there. So if AF arrives will you be on to cycle 12? X

@Mich2020 hey chick! Glad you're feeling good. Nothing like rest and exercise to sort you out. Oh no - haha hope you enjoyed the choc. And good that there's no sign off AF 🤞🏻👏🏻

Hi all, I just found this website which makes interesting reading for our symptoms x www.rowedocs.com/2018/03/pms-cramping-vs-common-early-pregnancy-symptoms/

@Happymumma29 thank you lovely, that was a good read. I also feel calm now as I had cramps on Monday for 3 days and AF is due on this coming Monday 😬🤞🏻

I am slowly going crazy. Ok if I join?

Ttc #2, so confused with all the numbers and no idea on DPO as have had irregular v heavy periods earlier in year so I do try track it.

I seem similar to @robbo93 but can't be certain.

Have had strong IB a week ago so was convinced I was due a BFP. Multiple BFN's and now apparently addicted to POAS but Ovia is telling me I was due AF yest? Just light spotting the last few days. Keep expecting it to turn into AF but nothing yet.

Tender breasts and lower ab flutters along with cramps past few days. Tests all showing BFN. Seems a few have same symptoms?

Help, I am going crazy?
