Yet another TWW thread (AF early October)

I can't seem to find anyone on the same timing - any ladies expecting AF early October?

I'm only 1 DPO with AF due 6 October, anybody else just starting their TWW to buddy up with?

@sallywallydodah let us know how you go on but I can definitely see a clear line! How long have you been TTC?

@raizelea I promised I wouldn't do it this month haha, to be fair I've made it to 11 dpo (ish) before becoming a crazy lady so that's an achievement 😂

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 08:19

@whambam89 well we've been doing FAM for about 4 months now as I was on the pill before that and we avoided ovulation times as a contraceptive. But this cycle my partner was feeling a bit frisky and I said "I ovulated yesterday" and he shrugged and said "so...?" With a smile on his face. That was 15 days ago...

So I wouldn't say we've been TTC but this time we haven't not tried if that makes sense x

@sallywallydodah Aww amazing! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy!

@whambam89 That IS an achievement 😄 Last month I was crazy throughout the whole cycle. This month only from 9ish DPO... Maybe I could do the next one without being crazy? 😄

@sallywallydodah that's what we've been doing, I've not been on the pill for a few months but we've avoided the times I've been ovulating up until last month. Have you told your OH yet? Bet he'll be in for a bit of a shock that it's happened first time 😂

@raizelrea haha, there's hope! I think there's definitely the most pressure on the first cycle but I'm not sure why 🤷‍♀️

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 08:44

@Raizelrea thank you!! And good luck to you too xx

@whambam89 well I'm actually on holiday in Cornwall with my mum so at 5am I gave her the fright of her life and I've been laughing and crying in the space of 10 mins as it's a shock to my system.

I've only been able to text him as my signal and WiFi isn't the best so the poor lad is at home/work wondering what the hell is going on! He's excited and the first thing he said was... ok, how do you feel, talk to me?

Bless him xx

Confused38 · 04/10/2019 11:44

Congratulations @SallyWallyDoDah! Hear is to a healthy pregnancy.

I am due AF on Sunday. I am currently 13 dpo. Cautiously optimistic as I have been having shooting pains in breasts and very bad nausea this morning. Although I have been feeling nauseas on/ off since 6 dpo and had some headaches around that time too which have pretty much passed now.

I will test on Monday.

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 11:53

@Confused38 thank you.

The only symptoms I have are very sore boobies. A lot different and more sore to AF symptoms. Rather than just sensitive at the nipple it's the whole boob.

I've just done another test with an afternoon pee and I got this...

@sallywallydodah definitely positive! One of my best friends has told me she's pregnant this morning, our DC1s are only 5 weeks apart so if on the small chance I am this month then there will be a similar age gap between our seconds!

HayleyD84 · 04/10/2019 14:43

@SallyWallyDoDah massive congratulations!!! I love seeing the BFP's start on a thread, gives me hope!

@Raizelrea i've tested last night and today, do not know what to make of them? I'm 9dpo so still really early. going to buy a FRER today and I have once again turned into the crazy "POAS and stare at the test for hours" lady LOL

When are you testing? our AF due similar time, mine Monday x

HayleyD84 · 04/10/2019 14:45

I'm driving myself mad 😢

@HayleyD84 how many DPO are you?

I'm not sure how to use those test strips so I haven't a clue what I'm looking at!!

Someone else didn't get a positive until they were 10 DAYS LATE!!! that's bloody ages! But everyone is unique. Do not get stressed. Your health isn't worth it and your time will come xxx sending lots of baby thoughts and wishes your way xxx

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 15:21

I'm scared in case mine isn't real xx

HayleyD84 · 04/10/2019 16:26

@SallyWallyDoDah I'm 9dpo so I know it's early.

Have you taken a digital? X

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 16:47

@HayleyD84 yes you're so early!! I tested 12DPO and it was negative. There was nothing there at all. Then 14DPO faint line. You're still in the game girl so don't stress at all!

I'm doing a digital one tomorrow morning. The one that gives weeks xx

@SallyWallyDoDah It's got to be real, there is a line, even in the afternoon ☺️ Maybe test every few days to check progression but try not to worry too much!

@HayleyD84 9 DPO is very early. I tested today 12 DPO and was also negative. I do like FRER and test with them pretty much exclusively though they have yet to give me even a hint of a squint 😄

MrssC92 · 04/10/2019 17:42

@HayleyD84 I can see a very faint line! Are they one step? I got a squiter of a line on them this morning, did a frer and got a BFP. I'm 9DPO as well.

Mrsw1992 · 04/10/2019 18:32

I’m out... AF arrived early Sad
Hopefully won’t see you on the next bus! Good luck ladies! X

SallyWallyDoDah · 04/10/2019 18:43

@MrssC92 and @HayleyD84 I thought I saw a very faint line too. Tried to take a screen shot of a close up on the reversed colour one you've uploaded but I've run out of uploading my own pics today.

12DPO I got a BFN too but now I got a BFP two days later. Anything can happen!

@Mrsw1992 aw sorry to hear. Wishing you lots of luck next time xxx

whambam89 · 05/10/2019 08:13

Think I might be out, got light cramps this morning but no sign of af yet (not due until Monday though)

HayleyD84 · 05/10/2019 08:52

Omg theres a line! it's very faint but there, SO hope this is it! Xx

@hayleyd84 I think I can see it! Is that a frer?

HayleyD84 · 05/10/2019 09:38

@whambam89 yes it's a FRER x

HazzaP26 · 05/10/2019 10:00

Hey ladies, congratulations on the BFP's 🤗

I am currently 3 days late and around 16DPO.
On cycle day 22 I had the tiniest of pink spotting, literally two wipes and that was it. Boobs have been a bit tender since, not necessarily both at the same time but that's gone away today. I tested yesterday and it was a BFN. I'm going to test again tomorrow if AF hasn't came. I remember it taking a while to show up a BFP last time, but that resulted in miscarriage so getting myself worried (probably for nothing) Just wondered if anyone else got BFN's until later on?

whambam89 · 05/10/2019 10:19

@hayleyd84 I'm thinking of picking one up but don't know whether to just wait 😂

Rhian1991 · 05/10/2019 10:23

Hi ladies..

This was my first month ttc and the 2ww felt like a lifetime. I thought I was imagining symptoms and going mad. I tested at 9dpo and got a bfn I then tested at 10dpo and get a bfn (I realise now it was far too early) I tested at 11dpo and by that point was losing faith a little but I got my bfp finally 😊 I'm now being treated for a UTI as well!! Good luck ladies! Xx
