Early December testing?

[Laur89]

@Gigi318 @Ellsbells112 @Gems7 new post girls! How are you all? I can't remember who else to tag!

@charlie0692 mine are 28 days religiously but for some reason my app has it down as 29 even though I input 28! So it says I'm due the 16th but I think its more so the 15th. Anyhow, I'll test if it doesnt come by the 16th :) I'm already starting to feel obsessive though and I did so well last month, not symptom spotting or anything lol x

Hey girls :) so @Ellsbells112 so you are post ovulation now and in the TWW? I'm not sure when I'm ovulating, I think it might be today ish because I'm getting pains, DTD last night and over the weekend, so not too sure what's happening this cycle! I'm going to portugal on Friday for a week so it will keep my mind busy 😆 x

@Laur89 ohhh how exciting!!! Portugal is lovely! Yes I'm in the dreaded 2ww 😭🤞
Actually this month is pretty cool because I've got two full fertile weeks in the same month lol so hopefully one of them works out!? Ffs lol and then I'm off to Australia in December to go stay with my sis over Christmas!! Xx

Eeek yes @Ellsbells112 I can't wait, we used to live there so looking forward to seeing family and friends, it will be the second time there for my 15 month old DS too 😬 that's so cool, how does that work though 😆 ohhh yeah I remember you saying about Australia, that will be so amazing! How long for?

@Laur89 oh that's lovely!! What part? I've only been to Lagos I think it's called? Lovely though. Why did you live over there are your family from there??
Well I was fertile this week and then I hit my fertile week again on the 27th, so it makes it seem real short lol.
We are going for 3 weeks, coming back on the 31st. We will be in Sydney but going to fly to Cairns and stay on an island where you can snorkel and catch a boat down to the great barrier reef. I'm so damn excited I tell you!! Lol haha it's really a dream come true, it's so expensive we would have never been able to do this even last year! So super grateful for it

@Ellsbells112 yeah I do seem to ovulate between 18-20 (if I do ovulate..) and then have a shorter LP which concerns me but not the 2 doctors I've seen about it 🧐

I'm gonna count Ov as today I think as I've also got a banging headache and am quite hungry! Xx

Hey ladies. CD20 & I think i ovulated yesterday so now 1DPO.
Noticed my cervix (what I think is my cervix anyway) has lowered already. Is this norm? Xx

@Robbo93 hey girl, mine came down today. I think I'm 3-4dpo? I either ovulated on Saturday or sunday and my cervix lowered today. It's not a good indication to go by your cervix though it doesnt determine anything so dont look too much into it xx

@Ellsbells112 I just thought it stayed high for pregnancy or have I read that wrong somewhere? Xx

@Robbo93 it says that in some places but sometimes it lowers and goes high again etc you just never know lol because I thought that and started researching more then saw that sometimes it goes higher like 6 weeks into pregnancy after lowering! Everyones body is different. Maybe go with it meaning you havent conceived, then it's a nice surprise if you have (easier said than done) xx

@Ellsbells112 yes I suppose so. Just seems to have lowered rather quick .. I'll know more when I get my blood tests results back for ovulation (in the new year! 😭) xx

@Robbo93 aww babe it's so bloody frustrating isnt it xx

A quick message to send crossed fingers and lots of luck and patience to those in the 2ww.

Permission to whinge?

I have no idea what's going on with my cycles and I'm so bored of it. BFNs, negative OPKs, CD 42 and no sign of AF. I have had long and not hugely regular cycles for a while, but it just makes tracking anything soooo hard! I'm gonna need several billion OPKs, aren't I?!

Anyone else in the horribly irregular boat? Sorry for moaning. Here is some cake

Well girls I have been very relaxed and laid back about TTC this cycle but I'm starting to feel myself thinking about things more and more this morning. I am convinced I'm ovulating today, which would make my cycle 28 days exactly the same as last time. I've had lots of uncomfortable pains on one side this morning and a huge blob of EWCM first thing this morning. Me and OH DTD last night and Sunday so fingers crossed!

How are we all? @Robbo93 @Ellsbells112 @Gigi318 @Anny27 @Laur89 sorry if I've missed anyone!

Also does anyone know if cervical smear tests are safe when TTC I have one booked in a few days and am worrying.. I'm feeling really positive about this month and don't want anything at all to mess it up 😩 xxx

@gems7 not sure about smears when ttc but i know they don't do then on pregnant women so i am not sure if that starts immediatley after conception? Tell the nurse the situation and she can let you know if its safe :)

I had one the month before we started ttc just to make sure everything was okay as i think its difficult if there are any problems if you are pregnant. Fingers crossed they are able to do it!

@Planeteer I'm really sorry you're going through that! That must be really difficult bless you 😓 I hope it gets better for you, have you tried maybe agnus castus for your cycle?? X

@Gems7 yep, since yesterday i have become an obsessed woman again. I'm about 4-5dpo :) I dont know about the smears I think maybe you should wait till just before your fertile time if you arent pregnant now?? Or ring up and check? X

Hey everyone, how are you all doing? I'm currently 7dpo, no symptoms whatsoever, dying to test but holding out until 14th when af due. Anyone ready to test yet? X

@charlie0692 hey chick, everyone has gone quiet on here! I'm 5-6dpo...no symptoms. I've broken out in painful cystic acne since waking this morning 🤷‍♀️ getting a bit crampy too but I feel like that part is normal. No amazing symptoms like really sore boobs or sickness unfortunately 🥺 haha

Hey @charlie0692 and @Ellsbells112! No idea how many DPO I am as didn't do OPKS this month, but I think it could of been the weekend? 🤷‍♀️ i was sick a couple of nights ago and in the day, and this morning I woke up dizzy and I've felt sick most of the day, unable to porridge this morning without nearly vomiting 🤦🏻‍♀️ don't know what's going on or if it's just a bug! No one else in my house has got ill though lol 😆

@charlie0692 hey hun, I either ovulated on Monday or Wednesday but am only counting myself as 1DPO today as I think it was yesterday. I'm slightly crampy today but I think that's normal, it's far too early for symptoms, this TWW is going to be a long one!
You're right @Ellsbells112 it has defo been quieter on here, I feel like it gets busier though the nearer to AF due date 👀
Fingers crossed for us all this time! Xx

Hey girls, looks like were all in the first week of the tww then. Its dragging soooooo much. I am dying to test but way too early. I only have the digital clear blue test left over from last month so not going to waste it by testing early, and I'm going to be strong and not buy any cheapie tests to do early either... although I've been scanning amazon and the frer are on offer at the min.. so tempting 😂🙈 baby dust to us all!!

Hey ladies. Think I'm 3DPO today but not too sure. Nothing out the ordinary to report from me except I have sooooo much discharge?! I never normally have any but I constantly feel like I've wet myself 🤨 and knickers are soaked (luckily it doesnt smell so can't be noticed at work etc lol) it's soooo strange?! Xx

@Laur89 awww that sounds promising!! I hope it's a good sign for you 🙏🤞🤞🤞

@Gems7 It will get busier then but I feel so impatient already like seriously lol xx

@Robbo93 that could also be a good sign!! 🤞

I'm just twinging atm moreso to the left side with a dragging sort of feeling - I dunno but I'm not getting excited about it either lol just jotting it down

@Ellsbells112 it could be.... I'll try & stay positive & see if it helps 😁

It's too early for symptoms anyway. Waaah 😭

@Robbo93 I dont know, I've heard crazy stories. Plus I implanted really early once, I must have because I felt the pregnancy feeling literally creep up on me one day but negative test result. Had to wait a week before it came up on the stick - went for an early scan a few weeks later and I was only 3 weeks.

But I don't have that overbearing feeling right now lol just really light cramping all day! I'm starting to feel down over it all though 😒 really scared that maybe I just cant anymore.
