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??

@Robbo93 I really hope so!! Lol I got super excited then had to tell myself to breathe! Nothing since then, no symptoms either just slightly crampy but that can be normal prior to period anyway...
So how many dpo are you now?? Was we around the same time sorry I'm terrible🤦‍♀️ what's been going on for you symptom wise??

@Gigi318 girlllllll🤣🤞 I was like omggg I wanted to run and show him the nasty bit of brown slime but I thought best not to if I want him to go down there again!! Hahaah I'm cramping now but very lightly no biggie, thank god food poisoning has completely passed! I saw your comments about your neck I did giggle because what are we like! Haha how are you feeling my love? You're still quite early on though arent you?? But any cramps or anything?? Xx

@Gems7 I feel the same! If it isnt my month I am fertile right at the end of the month so it doesn't seem that far away hurrah!! I'm.glad we are all so positive right now! You guys help so much through this I swear!! I am hoping it's a good sign! Haven't seen it in other months but I know your body can start acting up when looking for things lol soooo hopefully I really really hope it's something!! I'm crampy mostly in my back right now but other than that I'm fine xx

@Ellsbells112 oh lord, you're a better woman than me. If OH saw that he wouldn't be coming near me anytime soon! So glad you're feeling better now. At least that passed a whole chunk of time for you 🙊
I'm 8DPO now, getting there. Woohoo! I had some very mild (wouldn't quite call it) camping 5-6/7DPO. More like twinges or pulling, mainly on 5DPO. So nothing miraculous. And nothing today. But I think that's a good thing. Hopefully my little poppy seed got herself nestled in quite nicely and I'm good with no symptoms hehehe!
I know 🤣 me and my bloody neck. 👀👀👀 hahahaha!!!

@Ells I'm 10/11 DPO today (only a prediction, not certain).
I've not really got any symptoms. I've had a few twinges down there, a few aches, a few flutters of nausea but they all pass. I usually start spotting about 6/7 DPO so kinda worried incase I've been calculating wrong I'm not as far past O as I thought I was.
If nothing by tomorrow, then I may take a FRER in the morning, just feel like I don't want to waste it if it is only 1 line hahaha

I tell a lie, Monday when I wiped after a pee there was a pin prick of pink/red (you needed a magnifying glass to see it) :P but nothing after that.. then I had it again last night about 10pm but only literally a dot again (literally like a full stop made with a pen when writing a sentence). Weird. Nothing today.

@Robbo93 I had the same thing last night a pin prick of red but that was after the bit of brown CM 🤷‍♀️ I dunno maybe I'll have an early period or maybe it was from being sick for 2 days who bloody knows! I'm.the same as you though no real symptoms, I'm cramping now but lightly.
I guess we just gotta see what happens! Dont test though not yet! Wait till period is due just I'm case, it's the worst feeling ever when its negative especially when it can be false!

@Gigi318 dont crack me up! Looooool hahaha that's funny but you cant bloody help it can you!! Any little thing I'm like gasp pregnancy related!?!? Hahaha god it drives you nuts!!

@Robbo93 @Ellsbells112 you girls are so good at noticing this. Either I don't get it or I completely miss it 🙊 and I'm quite bleedy so knowing me I just miss it!

@Ellsbells112 absolutely. And one lady said to me she had a sore neck and it made me think 👀👀👀 IT ME! It really does. Roll on bed time hey!

@Gigi318 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤞🤞🤞 I'm not really bleedy I guess that is why I noticed it BUT I also don't scrutinise when I wipe normally not trying for a baby! Haha so who bloody knows!? Ahh let's just hope this is the monthhhhh guys! I've got Forst response tests on the way for Friday I purposely switched the amazon date because if they come now I'll be too tempted!! Lool I have heard that a stiff neck can be a symptom though

@Ellsbells112 it's crazy the things we do. I do generally try to see what's going on down there to in case it's out of character.
That's good. Then you won't be tempted. Do you think you might test Saturday??
Have you - that's good. At least I'm not going mad 👀👀👀 hehehehe!

@Gigi318 I feel so bloated, monday I ate nothing then Tuesday I had a banana and crackers, I tried eating soup it made me feel so sick and now today i had some.more crackers and some spinach and butternut squash croutons things. I tell you what food poisoning will make you lose weight! 🤣🤣 just what I needed to kick start hah!

I'm definitely testing Saturday but I'll wait till early evening as I normally come on during the afternoon! So no sign of AF by 4pm I will test. You're testing next week Tuesday?? I'm really hopeful for us xx

Hi sorry to jump on! But Alsco11

Did any of you who’ve recently had a positive test experience light headed around 7/8DPO. I’ve had to come home from work as feeling very light headed - wonder if a symptom of implantation maybe ?? could be wishful thinking though!

@Ellsbells112 oh lord, I'm tempted to find some rotten oysters now I whip myself into shape 🤣 I'm kidding. I've had food poisoning twice and it knocked me for six both times. Wouldn't like to mix that with my bloody neck right now. How would I even wretch 😂🙈
Yes babe I'm thinking Tuesday. AF due Wednesday but I think 14DPO is good enough! I'm getting a bit excited now 🙊 roll on the weekend then it will be here!

@Gigi318 I only notice it 'cos I scrutinise the tissue to see what's there haha. If I wasn't in the TWW I'd just throw it away and never notice it lol.

@Ellsbells112 your name finally comes up for me to tag! I've got 2 FRER, 2 CBD, 1 supermarket cheapy & 3 clear&simple dip strips. I've got plenty hahahaha but don't want to use the good ones unless I had a shimmer of a line on a cheapy? But obv they are much less mlu anyway .. I just hate waiting!

Oh ffs.. I've just noticed a little of bit of light pink on the tissue. :(

@Robbo93 maybe I need to be more observant 🙈 is this a good thing??? It could be spotting from PG??

@Gigi318 ahh good stuff chick!! Soo exciting!! Umm well update for me I'm cramping in my back and left side of belly, quite a bit of watery cm but no blood or spotting? Hmm I have to wait for Friday anyway since I ordered the PT for then. I've got one CB digi which I dont trust yet lol 😭🤞 I hope these are good signs! X

@Ellsbells112 oohhh that all sounds so exciting. Not long to wait now babe. Just one POAS-less morning to get through and then you can test. I have 6 days to go! But that should fly by. We're almost at the weekend and then it will be the start of next week 🙌🏻 I hope so babe, and I hope my bloody neck is too 🙊

@Gigi318 good way to look at it thank you!! Yeah I hope so too! Then italy can be a sort of celebration if you will!! Hehe! At least when the weekend is here it wont feel so long!! You can enjoy the weekend then it's just 1 day till you test! X

@Ellsbells112 absolutely babe. Oh I'm so jealous. You have to eat all the pasta and pizza and upload pics for me 🙊 I love Italian food! Absolutely. I see it like stages. From now until the weekend to get through. Then the weekend. And after that on Monday morning I will be dying inside so excited ahead of Tuesday 😬👏🏻

@Gigi318 I don't think it's positive for me unfortunately.. I had a big cramp when I got home earlier from one of my ovaries lasted a couple of minutes then went again .. strange xx

@Robbo93 eeeek. Who knows. Cramping can be PG. Argh it's literally anyones game, isn't it!

Hi, sorry for the slow response, I work long days so I'm often a silent reader in here, but following all your progress and wishing everyone positive news this month.

@Gems7 I've had symptoms but I had the same ones last month, so it's really hard to know if they're just what I experience every month but pay no attention to usually. Mild cramping and feeling tired are the main ones. I will say I feel particularly tired at times this month though, but I've also been going to bed late.

@Gigi318 haha I definitely will show you pics!! I cannot wait for all the food seriously!
@Robbo93 it's not over yet! I had cramps today it might be a good thing lets hope! I wish I could know for sure lol but I'm hoping that brown cm yesterday was a good thing! Xx

@Happymumma29 that's the problem isn't it, it's so difficult to distinguish between what's normal for you every month and what's not. Because when you are TTC you notice absolutely everything, things you never normally would.
I have been in tears tonight sobbing on my OH for something sooooo minor and I'm just sat here wondering if it's Af signs, PG signs or if I'm just completely crazy! Haha
How many DPO are you currently? Fingers crossed your mind is put at ease with a darker line soon. When will you test again? Tomorrow? Or Friday? Eeekkkk exciting 😬 xx

@Gems7 yeah it's really hard. I did cry watching Strictly on Sunday and it's the first time I'd watched any of it so I had no emotional attachment. My oh thought I was mental haha. It's just so hard to know is it it. I'm feeling confident as I definitely had a faint line today, so I'll do another first thing and see (can't wait, I'm too impatient now). I'm not sure how many dpo I am exactly. 8 or 9 maybe. I'm due my af on Tuesday. How many are you? Hopefully your experiencing some positive symptoms xx

@Happymumma29 don't apologise chick, it's lovely to have you here.

@Ellsbells112 so exciting. I am now in a carb coma right now 🙊

@Gems7 oh absolutely. I am trying to compare some bits to last month but beyond that I can't remember much else. Oh nooo, I hope you're okay?? Hopefully it's PG and not AF!

@Happymumma29 I'm not really experiencing any symptoms. I'm 8DPO today. I was just a bit emotional last night.. pesky hormones! Haha they have a lot to answer for

@Gigi318 oh yeah I'm fine, was just having a moment, over nothing at all, as you do! 😄 x
