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??

Morning ladies, how are you all?

@Mich2020 that sounds perfect, lovely. Ways nice to just dtd when you feel like it - this ttc thing can sometimes feel like a chore, can't it! Good that no sign and yay for delivery, hopefully you can hold out. We've got you!!! 🥂👌🏻

@Ellsbells112 how are you doing today chick??

Also, just checking in on @Laur89 And @Lauren3118 - how are you ladies feeling??

Sending positive thoughts and baby dust 💫

@Gigi318

Morning, I'm 8/9dpo today,
Had a few strange feelings like heaviness down there, really sore boobs on and off 🤷‍♀️ trying to hold out few more days to test AF due 23rd
X

@Gigi318 unless this is AF and it's the lightest one I've ever known (in colour as well as flow 😂)

The 2nd half for me is deffo worse than the first half of the cycle ... hate not knowing xx

@Gigi318 yes it's good to bond more when not just ttc. I know I'm hoping that I will not test later although my OPKS are always more positive in the evenings than any other time. Although I'm swimming later so hopefully that'll stop me from using one 🙈 keeping everything crossed that I might have a visible second line tomorrow xx

@Gigi318 morning lovely. Well, yesterday I was quite tired on and off with a headache and then in the night I was getting cramps again and back ache. I could just sleep and sleep too, so if I'm not preggo I'm gonna go doctors and get some tests done because this is crazy.

How are you feeling? Any other symptoms?

@Lauren3118 eek exciting. All symptoms sound good so far. Yes, hold off if you can 🤞🏻 I'm due 22nd (Flo thinks 23rd) but testing 21st - only 4 more days to go!

@Robbo93 definitely the first half (well, when AF stops) is more exciting - as you're giving it at shot!!

@Mich2020 that's good, anything to distract you or stop you hehehe. Yes the morning sounds good to me. How exciting. Less than 24 hours to go woohoo!!

@Ellsbells112 morning babe. Oh my goodness, tell me about it. Mild cramping on and off - nothing like AF, just odd feelings down there. And nausea but it feels better when I eat. Hurrah! Back is all good at the moment. Hurrah. I'm with you though, if I'm not then I'm definitely poorly 😂🙈 Roll on Saturday!

Hi @Gigi318 thank you for thinking of me ☺️ I'm doing ok, I'm 8dpo and did a test this morning which was a bfn, of course now I feel like it's not happened this month... someone give me hope please! How are you?

@Laur89 dont worry hun I've done a preggo test too early before and been pregnant, waited a week and then it come up. Leave the testa alone! Lol I've done two this month, once at like 5dpo(really??) And one on 8dpo and both bfn...didn't expect anything else really lol

@Laur89 you're welcome babe, it's your thread and I thought, wait we've not heard from her - not a bad thing though, busy dtd and things hehehe! Don't worry so much 8dpo is still SO early - remember that. Things could change in a week. See what the weekend brings if you can hold out. And even jf you can't, until AF is here you're still in the game. Are you noticing any symptoms? Try to stay positive, your body is a magical thing and could be doing things behind the scenes without you knowing 💫 I'm doing well, feeling lots of twinges and bouts of nausea - awful backache last week. But we shall see. I'm either slowly going insane or... 🤞🏻

@Gigi318 ahh yes the one difference is I dont have the nausea so that's what's making me think that maybe I'm not pregnant as that's normally one of the first things! Anyway, 4 more days haha!! Its my sons birthday tomorrow so itll be lovely just to enjoy that with him!! Hes super excited, he will he 8 ❤😁

Your cramps, do they sort of cramp then feel like heavy and radiate into your back? Its just weird because I only ever cramp the day of my period...like literally i cramp and I'm like ohh i gotta go check! Then my period is here lol

@Ellsbells112 lols 'leave the test alone' 🤣 you ladies kill me. Love it. And 5dpo 'really' 🤣 I think we need a POAS anonymous thread hehehe! I will slowly stop you all 🙊🙊🙊 I love it!

@Gigi318 if bfn tomorrow I know that I'm out I guess that's the way to look at it. As if I am pregnant then the test would defo show the day period is due. Ahhhhh scary xx

@Mich2020 not necessarily chick. So many women have had BFNs until like a week after! So unless AF is here, you are still in! 🤞🏻

@Gigi318 yes that's true. My cycles have been weird since having my coil out though. It took a long time for first period, then 2 months of 28 days then a month of 32 then 33 I think so hoping it doesn't mess up anymore. My app says I'm due Wednesday though and I'm hoping that it stays away and I don't see her at all for another 9 months lol xx

@Mich2020 that's the spirit, my love. And if you breastfeed it could be a year or more - what a treat 👌🏻 Exactly, and with cycles all over the place you never really know. Just try to stay calm and positive if you can, worrying will only ever harm you. Make yourself a yummy dinner tonight and relax, tomorrow is a new day to POAS hehehe!!!

@Gigi318 omg I'm getting exciting feelings down there today!! 🤣 pains through my vagina like lightening and like a sort of heaviness feeling in my womb with back ache! I cant help but get excited loool omg I best not be wrong that would be so embarrassing 🤣🤣

@Gigi318 actually never mind I just looked it up and some people got bfn with those feelings soooo let me just calm down 🤣🤣

@Ellsbells112 this is literally me 🤣 but we shall see what Saturday brings. Or if AF turns up. In an ideal world she'll do a disappearing act for a year and come back, shorter, lighter, and generally all round much more pleasant!!! Either way, remember that your body has or hasn't already done what it's meant to. That little bundle is either there or it's not. That blows my mind! I love it! And even if AF comes it's a reminder that you're healthy and you still have another shot coming in like 8-15 days woohoo!!!

You guys honestly :D
I'm tempted to test too.. I kinda know this is AF but hey, might just POAS to prove it!

Still vvvvv light bleeding at the moment, was just a closer shade to red than pink but I'm still hoping it may faze out through the day (fingers crossed) - nothing on pad yet though and I don't want to put a tampax in just in case ??!

I tested 🙈🙈🙈 evap???? Normally stark white so I'm anything from 5-8dpo, I think.... I'm frigging the worst 😂

@Robbo93 stick with the pad and wait it out. Could be AF, but may not be. And go for it, POAS if it'll reassure you but remember you can get BFNs for like a week after AF due and then a BFP 🤞🏻

@ForGoodnessCake eeek 5-8dpo! Very early. I'd say try again in two days if you can't hold off much longer. I can see something, but it's very faint for now 🤞🏻

Absolutely, I'll just test every twice a daymorning and hope it gets darker 👌🙈

@ForGoodnessCake you must have such strength. I know I couldn't do it - I'd drive myself mad. I'm quite dramatic 🤣🙈 so I find holding off is earlier. Especially with so many ladies saying they got the BFNs up to days or even weeks after AF was due and then the BFP. It keeps me going 💪🏻
