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??

@Gems7 morning babe! Hehehe oh I know the feeling. I can get like that right before AF or on the first day. Things make me super emotional 🙊 and during O come to think of it hehehe! 9DPO today. Woohoo. Getting there!!!

@Gigi318 yes not long now, just this weekend to get through 😬

Ladies, my total lack of symptoms has changed and despite me not wanting to spot them, I couldn't help it. Sorry if this is a long one or TMI for some. Butttt...
I woke feeling a bit wetter, especially after yesterdays seemingly dried up CM day. Watery CM. Then I went to shower and spotted a few thin lines of very pale brown CM. So, I freaked! I'm only 9DPO! On further inspection, it's a pinkish brown rather than my usual AF related dark brown. It was also mixed with non-pinkish brown CM - clearer/milkier CM. So not all pinkish-brown.
I don't want to overthink this, but I'm hoping it's IB 🤞🏻 I've got no other symptoms. No cramps or anything. Just literally spotted it!

What do we think???

@Gems7 yes!!!! After this!!!!

@Gigi318 I think if that isn't implantation bleeding then I have no idea what else it could be.. it's too early for AF isn't it because you are due next weds same day as me.. omg fingers crossed babe! 😬🤞🏻 see if you get anymore throughout the rest of today and tomorrow.. xx

@Gigi318 morning beaut how are you?
I feel a bit wobbly this morning but that's normal before my period 😒 getting impatient now!
Hows everyone else doing??

@Robbo93
What happened with the spotting?

Ohhh @Gigi318 that sounds very promising! I so hope it is IB for you!!

I think the witch may have just arrived for me. Too light to tell at the moment but it's definitely red. I'll update again later. Gaaah

@Gems7 thanks babe, I'm a bit calmer now. Yes due AF on Wednesday 🙌🏻 I just had a freak out... worrying I should have counted the start of 4 day very light spotting before AF as CD1 last month. Which would then throw my dates off - and mean I may of missed O and this could be AF. BUT then I calmed down - I feel like I nailed O day based on CM, twinges, and sex drive.
You're right, it's a waiting game to see what happens so no need for me to obsess now. I seem to have gotten it out of my system 😂🙈
Really hope it's IB 🤞🏻 also worries me that the percentage of people that get IB or notice it is very slim.

AND so ironic after what I was saying yesterday @Ellsbells112 @Robbo93 hey girls. Reaaallllll ironic 😂🙈 I noticed it alright!!!!!!

@Ellsbells112 ahaha messaged on here at the same time!

Pinkish wet mucus turned into nothing over the course of the evening/this morning. Just when for a wee just now and bam there's some red... granted not a lot at the moment though.

@Gigi318 omg chick i didnt see your message!! Ohhh that's super exciting!! That's exactly what I saw the other day like tiny bit of pinky white tinged cm and then the brown/white mixed cm!! Ohhh I hope it's good news for you sounds like implantation!! 🤞🤞 I hope mine is too but I'm kind of telling myself it might be left over from last month cuz I saw a lot of it then but who knows.

@Robbo93 what does it look like, how you normally spot??

I've come over really dizzy today but this happened last month albeit just for a week longer lol! I've got cramps as if my periods going to come so I don't really know what's going on.

@Ellsbells112 that's okay chick 😘 it really took me by surprise and confused me TBH. It's still there in dibs and drabs. Definitely pinkish pale brown. Only saw clear/milky CM when I checked my CP (which was DEFINITELY soft and open - the softest I've ever felt it) so it must then mix more with the blood as it comes down. So interesting what our bodies do. Hopefully it's a positive for us both 🤞🏻💖
I had such a panic earlier worrying I got my dates wrong but now I'm confident they were spot on 🙌🏻👏🏻
You're due AF on Saturday right? Not long to test now chick 🙌🏻

@Ellsbells112 very very light red at the moment and not much of it. Not even bothered with a liner/pad it's that light.
I normally spot for a couple of days before full flow, haven't really spotted this month. & last month was so weird, it was like a 3 day period that I never needed a pad for... wish they were all like that hahaha xx

@Gigi318 I dont know how you check your cervix lol I have a tilted cervix so it's hard to find. Yeah not long at all I'm getting scared that I'm not going to be pregnant sounds so stupid doesn't it lol but god it will be a let down if not! If I get the first response tests tomorrow I'll do one I think.
It does sound like implantation though doesn't it?? You might start to get symptoms in a few days x

@Robbo93 yeah mine was a 3 day nearly nothing period last month too so weird! Xxx

@Ellsbells112 I think I do too - I remember the words 'tilted' at a gyno appointment but wasn't sure if it was uterus 🤷‍♀️🙈 mine is quite high. Just have a rummage and you should find it. You'll know when you do. It's like a doughnut!
If it comes tomorrow will you wait for FMU on Saturday? I hope so 🤞🏻🙌🏻 it will be exciting for us all then yay. Try not to be disheartened my love. Soooo many women that have had BFPs lately say they didn't feel PG at all. I certainly don't so I know what you mean, it could go either way!
I think it does. But I'm trying to stay calm. I will see if it continues or stops. Let's hope it stops. Last saw it around 11ish I think! I'm trying to avoid going to the loo because of it 🤣🙈

Also ladies, my AF was the same last month @Robbo93 3 days super light. Weird!

@Gigi318 ah yes so after researching online I had a rummage and mine feels hard so 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ maybe not a good sign. I have nothing to compare it to but defo not soft feels more like tip of my nose than lips

@Ellsbells112 I'd say I've checked in 4-5 times now while TTC and up until today had no idea what it meant. It's always been high, so that didn't help. And when I checked before it was definitely between nose and lips 😂🙈 like squishy but firm. And then today it was very soft and open and lots of CM. Very different to how it's been before - even a few days ago. But then, I don't know if that means anything at all! It all just feels like a huge guessing game!

Hi ladies! I'm 6-9 dpo today and feeling... nothing. After my last post a couple of days ago about the pinkish-brown spotting I experienced that day, I had it for 1 more day (again just in the evening, again so light it was barely worth wasting a pantyliner on it) but have had none since then. Nothing yesterday, nothing so far today.

I'd been feeling a little sicky and lightheaded/dizzy yesterday, and had a grim taste in the back of my mouth for most of the afternoon, but today there's nothing. I feel completely normal now, and I'm a bit upset by it.. My sense of smell has seemed stronger for the past couple of days and still does, but I think I'm just imagining things at this point. Normally with around a week to go before AF is due, I'd be getting quite grumpy and depressed, but I'm lacking even that. I don't know what's happening!

Did a cheapo high sensitivity test after work yesterday (lack of self control coming to a head), BFN. I tried to talk myself down beforehand - it's too early, it's late in the day, etc. - but I still felt a bit gutted when it came up negative. Think I'll test again on Monday, then if still BFN try to hold off til Friday 25/10 as originally planned. I've got a new thermometer and 60 opk waiting in my amazon basket until next weekend lol

Has anybody here ever felt so... nothing... and then had a BFP? Is there any hope to be had here?

@SarahRay definitely hope babe. Most lovely ladies that I've seen get BFPs lately didn't think they would - they had little to no symptoms at all. Months they felt PG, they had BFNs! And it's still verrryyy early days - at potentially 6DPO you wouldn't really have symptoms. So give it time. Definitely too early to test and without FMU so just forgive yourself there and promise not to do it again until Monday, like you've said 🙌🏻 you've got this chick 💖

@sarahray when i got bfp only symptom i had was tiredness really (like the start of a cold tired)
But the months before i was convinced i was pregnant and wasnt.
And the time i was i had kind of given up hope and thought maybe this month i am not!

i am so excited for all the rest of you - the pinky cm sounds promissing!

@Anny27 well hello lovely, how are you doing? Hope you're still feeling good!
Thank you, the CM did terrify me this morning but trying to be positive. Still no other obvious symptoms to note of! So I hope that's a plus 💖

@Gigi318 @Ellsbells112 how weird!!

It's now gone to light pink and practically nothing. Loving this guessing game, who needs candy crush

@Robbo93 it's nuts, isn't it? Mine is barely noticeable now and has been for 4-5 hours. Having to 👀 to see if anything is there!

@Gigi318 @robbo93 lol why is the same thing happening? How long was yours there for? Mine was just one wipe

@Gigi318 yeah doing well thanks! I have been reading all the messages and really rooting for you guys to get your bfps :D

@Ellsbells112 I noticed it about 8.30am. A little more came down after that, but then barely anything since 11am ish. Odd tiny teeny bit on the pad but barely visible. Will keep an eye this evening and overnight but hope it stops soon 🙌🏻
I guess every body is different, I find that blood takes a while to come out of me so I'm not surprised it's slowly trickling. Whereas some may just happen instantly. I also guess (if it is IB) then different amounts of blood will always appear for everyone based on the uterus wall etc! 💖
