Just looking for buddies to get me through the tww..

My app says I’m 2dpo but didn’t catch my exact peak just high fertility on clear blue and used cheapies to back up!

Having cramps and sore breasts but could still be ovulation?

Have been trying since around July 💗

@Louu99 good luck and welcome! I hope you get your BFP soon Grin

Did you recently come off the pill or anything? Xx

Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 08:18

@WooMaWang maybe but that‘ would give me a short lp unless maybe My af will be later? Last night I was cramping sooooo badly and breasts have been sore for day’s! I’ve ordered some frer but going to leave it a while and just see how I feel.

Ps frer are on offer on amazon Halloween Wink

How are you?? Xx

@OP how weird and frustrating! Do you keep a note of any other signs of ovulation like ewcm? I think you might just need to wait this out and see what happens. It's still possible your opk is picking up a bfp. Have you taken a pregnancy test? Otherwise sounds like your having a weird cycle.

@Missdrifter we had been following smep, although we're had bad colds this month so it fell away a bit this cycle. We try every 2-3 days in fertile week and maybe a few days in a row once opk positive. We're on cycle 6 so I know what you mean about feeling a bit disheartened!

Welcome @KaylieMariie and @Louu99

Hi @Sunflower2019 🙂

I haven't been on any contraception for about 3 years now. It's why we've made the decision to start trying now.

We haven't been careful in the past and have used the old trusted method of pulling out (sorry if this is TMI!!) and nothing has ever happened, even when we've had accidents and things. So I'm a bit concerned that maybe something is going on, if that makes sense! Xx

Hi ladies, can I join?
I’m 3 dpo, fairly regular cycles and on Clomid thanks to pcos and annovulation.
I got a positive OPK on 30/10 and a negative 1/11, and know there was a dominant follicle so hopefully we caught it.
The TWW feels like forever, and I’m noticing every little change in my body - my boobs have been so tender today which I don’t normally get!
I’m normally one who begins testing around 6dpo and every day thereafter til AF arrives 🤦🏽‍♀️ But I’m going to try and wait this month as the disappointment is a bit much sometimes.
How is everyone else doing?

KaylieMariie · 03/11/2019 14:03

I know what you mean amy! told myself I'm not going to symptom spot or test early but I can feel my willpower slipping already 😂
I had some left sided back cramps and my boobs gave started to tingle I wonder whether my mind is just creating symptoms sometimes. 🙄

amysara24 · 03/11/2019 15:22

Kaylie that’s exactly me! I don’t know what symptoms are really there and what I’m imagining. I’ve spent all afternoon trying to google earliest possible day to get a bfp 😂😂

KaylieMariie · 03/11/2019 15:52

crazy what we put ourselves through isn't it 😂 I really am going to try and hold back on testing until af is due/late though 🤞

Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:09

@Skyla01 yes I was thinking that could be a possibility especially with the strange symptoms I’ve been having?! Had some ic wondfos but looked like a bfn.. so either I’m not pregnant and I’m ovulating again.. or maybe something else! Gonna wait it out now and see.

Where are you in your cycle now? Xx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:10

@Louu99 well that’s good, least you don’t have to wait for the hormones and I was using that method a few years back and didn’t fall pregnant.. spoke to a nurse and she said it’s actually successful id done correctly so I think you’re fine! How old are you? Xx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:11

@amysara24 I’ve been having that but then could just be hormonal before af or ovulation..

Do you have any other symptoms? Welcome btw :) xx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:11

@KaylieMariie how many dpo are you???

Least we can all symptom spot together :) x

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:13

@amysara24 some people get a BFP at 7 or 8dpo!!! Crazy! When I was pregnant previously I never studied my cycles so never knew how many dpo etc.. but I remember taking tests and being negative but having weird symptoms... which I keep comparing!!! Xxx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 20:29

Just checked the sensitivity of these wondfos and they are 25miu 🤦🏽‍♀️ Wouldn’t even pick up now if I was!!!!

Weird thing is can you have obvious symptoms before it shows on a test? X

OP posts:
Louu99 · 03/11/2019 20:31

@Sunflower2019 that's good news, I was beginning to think there was something wrong! Especially because my periods have been very unusual and irregular in the past, although they seem to have evened out a bit now, albeit they're a bit long!

I'm almost 32, another reason why I think now is the right time. My birthday comes around and surprisingly, I don't get any younger 😂

Any other conception tips for me?! I'm too afraid to google incase I go mad with the symptom spotting! X

KaylieMariie · 03/11/2019 20:33

@Sunflower2019 According to my femometer app I am 5 dpo according to my BBT but according to my ovulation strips i peaked the day before?

amysara24 · 03/11/2019 20:34

@Sunflower2019 I’ve not had any others that I’ve noticed anyway, but I don’t have anything to compare a “normal” cycle to unfortunately thanks to pcos!
I know, I wish I could be sure of a reliable result at 7/8 dpo! I ordered some FRER from Amazon today (thanks for the tip!) so will maybe start next weekend at around 10 dpo... I have a blood test on Thursday to be sure I’ve actually ovulated too.. what a stress this whole thing can be at times!

WooMaWang · 03/11/2019 22:49

@Sunflower2019 I think the pre-ovulation part of a cycle is pretty variable in length depending on stress etc. but the luteal phase is more consistent. So you may just have a longer than usual cycle if you ovulated late.

I'm alright. No real symptoms to report. Well other than a bit of breast pain. But that happened last cycle too so I think it's just standard.

Sunflower2019 · 04/11/2019 08:36

Well I’m officially mad.. needed a wee and thought I’ll use one of my frers.. as not 100% sure when I ovulated and have been staring at it for ages... sure I can see a vvvvvvfl but my eyes ache and I’m sure I went cross eyed at one point.. thinking prob an indent and I’m so stupid! Good job amazon have the offer on!!! Now I’m Just going to leave it 😂 xxx

How is everyone else?? Xx

Ellsbells112 · 04/11/2019 08:53

Hey ladies, anyone just starting to 2ww? I'm 1-2 dpo and dont want to go through the tww alone! Also this month I got ovulation pain from both sides! My mind was blown lol. Ttc month 3!
@sunflower2019 how many dpo are you? X

WooMaWang · 04/11/2019 09:00

Step away from the sticks (of all kinds) @Sunflower2019. No pissing on anything until the 11th (just to be sure)!

Hi @Ellsbells112.

I'm 7dpo today (I think). I'm definitely not testing til at least the 11th. Or possibly the 14th when AF appears to be due. I just can't cope with the potential disappointment (although I hate waiting too).

Sunflower2019 · 04/11/2019 09:07

@Ellsbells112 welcome :) we are all in the tww so can hold your hand! Well I missed my peak so not sure, usually ovulate anywhere from cd10-cd12 but had a positive opk the other night so I’m so confused! I’ve been having cramps both sides and cm which usually dries up.. but it’s the weird symptoms that have thrown me this month! Guess I could of ovulated late like everyone else is saying so I’m either anything from 7-9 dpo or if I go by the other opk 2dpo 🤦🏽‍♀️ Help!!!!

How are you feeling?? Have you been finding the process tough or okay? It’s been so hard for me, honestly expected to fall pregnant quickly but guess age and other factors have made it take longer. Xx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 04/11/2019 09:08

@WooMaWang I know I know.. such a weirdo!! I’m going on a spa day Thursday so. Little worried as I know you can’t use hot tubs or sauna etc? What do I do!

No more pissing well on sticks WinkGrin x

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 04/11/2019 09:09

@WooMaWang you having any symptoms? X

OP posts:
Ellsbells112 · 04/11/2019 09:18

@sunflower2019 I know what you mean! It's super hard, I fell pregnant so easily 8 years ago (I have a son who is 8) and I just expected the same thing this time around! I know it's only month 3 I'm trying but it's so hard to not get down and feel totally fed up every mo th just being crushed. How many cycles in are you?

Omg I'd be confused too!! Do you think you DTD at the right times anyway? I normally ovulate around cd15 and I dtd from cd13 to cd16 so bloody hope I caught!! All ovulation pain seems to have stopped, last I felt it was late yesterday afternoon!

When you was supposed to be ovulating to make you around 7dpo, didnyou have symptoms of ovulation then? X

@WooMaWang ahh yes! Wait wait and wait some more! I don't know what's worse, a negative pregnancy test or af showing up! I'm always in a foul mood when she turns up! How long have you been trying? My period is due 15/16 November, I'll only test if it doesnt show because I'm never late!
