Hey wondering if anyone else is ttc and in this awful tww. Im 4dpo atm and am hoping for baby 3 to complete our lovley family. It took me a while to decide if this was the right decision. I know I love having babys and being a mum, but was just nervous with two others (4yrs and two yrs).But now im convinced I want it, Ive gone back to being a crazy lady in the tww . The only positive is im extremely nauseous. Ive only ever been nauseous pregnant and it always comes days after ovulation and sex. and Never ends till the babys born. It feels familiar but now once again im nervous! Hope you are all well! Hope theres someone to go through this with me! x

@York28 wow! I wouldn't say your crazy, especially if it correlated before! that looks like a good sign. You know what your resting rate is, so you can tell there's a change...I've read it can pick up at least 10 extra beats when pregnant. Smile it's hard not to pick up on these signs when TTC. I was walking around aldi last month and convinced I was craving gherkins (I never buy them) so put them in my trolley. Ate then from the jar every day and as soon as I got my AF I haven't touched them since!! Now that's crazy!! This is more reasonable for sure. Fingers crossed for you x

York28 it does make sense, fingers crossed this is a good sign! Xx

Hi everyone, was just wondering how everyone was doing. I am now 8dpo. It’s getting harder to not test early at this stage, I have no tests in the house because if I buy them I will definitely lose all will power. I know I should not symptom spot but my breasts still feel fuller, my resting heart rate has now gone up to 60 (from 52) and I felt nauseous for a few minutes this morning... but I may have stood up to fast! It’s weird how fast a week goes normally but the tww wait drags it’s heels the whole time, trying not to let it consume me but it’s nice to come on here and know at I am not alone.

Ceri87 · 13/11/2019 11:59

I'm about 9-10 dpo and I caved and I've got a FRER coming today (amazon prime to the rescue!!) there's 2 so I'm going to test first thing. I can't hold off, being to impatient! If it comes up bfn then i'll keep the last one for the weekend. I don't feel too different. Boobs are sore (but they usually are week before af) I do feel more shaky and my stomach is more unsettled. But could be because I'm so nervous! When is everyone thinking of testing?

Lilice · 13/11/2019 13:17

I usually get pain in one breast after ovulation right up to my period, but this time i have no pain at all. It's very strange as I always get that pain, every month, in the same spot and in the one same breast only. I hope it's not a sign I haven't ovulated. On the other hand I started new supplements this month so maybe that's linked

Ceri87 · 13/11/2019 20:16

The FRER tests never arrived!! Said they posted them through my door 20 mins ago but nothing (prob wrong address Confused) I'm taking it as a sign as I was being to impatient! But how frustrating

Lilice · 13/11/2019 22:34

Aww that's a shame! Hopefully you will get it tomorrow. Have you checked if one of your neighbours got it?

Ceri87 · 14/11/2019 08:23

Yes it got delivered to a neighbour! Didn't want to go knocking late last night but they ended up bringing it around first thing... I've done it and I swear I can see a very faint line Confused it is a FRER, and I'm due af on Monday (too early?) think I'm 11dpo ... what do you think, can anyone see it?? Could it be evap line (been hearing lots about that on this site)

Anyone wanna tww with me ttc baby 3, 4dpo
HE88 · 14/11/2019 10:32

@Ceri87 I can see a line maybe test again in a couple of days. Xx

York28 · 14/11/2019 10:34

@Ceri87 I can see a faint line too. Is it pink? I think evaps are more grey? I know it’s so hard but I would wait two days then test again. I have my fingers and toes crossed for you 🤞

@Lilice how confusing re breast pain and ovulation. I swear our bodies know we are TTC and throw out all manner of things to confuse us.

I just caved and ordered FRER, they will arrive tomorrow and the earliest I could possible test with FMU would be Saturday. That would make me 11dpo, just wondering if I could hold out till Sunday at least.

Goingbacktokansascity · 14/11/2019 10:40

@Ceri87 congratulations! I’m 8DPO and trying super hard not to gets until Sunday but I want to test today

Ceri87 · 14/11/2019 10:44

@York28 @HE88 I'm going to hold out until Sunday now. It looks a very faint pink. Slightly clearer when looking at it directly, than you can see in pic. It's hard not to get hopes up though. Before joining I would have chucked it in bin thinking it was a bfn....

@Lilice breast pain is super confusing as mine are sore but they get like this week before af so I can't trust the symptom!

@Goingbacktokansascity I tried very hard to hold back testing but now I feel more in limbo..it's going to be a long 2 days!

Lilice · 14/11/2019 11:02

Ceri that's excellent news! Congrats! In my experience a line is a line and as long as you did the test following the instructions it should work. If you're unsure, would a digital test give a clear yes no answer?
Ps: I don't know how to tag people with the @ when writing a message. How do you do it?

Goingbacktokansascity · 14/11/2019 11:10

@Ceri87 why are you in limbo? It’s a positive test?

Ceri87 · 14/11/2019 11:19

Is a line, even when that faint, always a positive? Just don't want to get hopes up. I've read about evap lines but I've looked at it again and it is a very light pink. I might get a digital but I read FRER were more reliable. @Goingbacktokansascity do you think you can hold off? I purposely ordered them to arrive yesterday so I couldn't test even earlier!

@Lilice if you use the @ sign on keypad a drop box shows with all the names in this chat, I just click on the name I want to reply to.

Goingbacktokansascity · 14/11/2019 11:20

@Ceri87 it looks like a line to me, not an Evap. It’s stronger than it was at 9DPO with my son.

Lilice · 14/11/2019 21:04

@Ceri87 thanks I can do it now lol
I think even a very faint line is still a positive, and an evap line is when you've left the test lying around for too long and the line then appeared after a while. If you got your faint line within the 5 minutes or whatever it says on the instructions, then it's definitely a positive.

Lilice · 14/11/2019 21:17

I am stressing out now as why my boob isnt sore as it would usually be. Normally every month right after ovulation I get this pain in one breast that lasts until af but not this time. I really hope I did ovulate this month! I had a positive opk for two days, and other symptons like ewcm and cramps. Is it possible to get all the symptons and not ovulate? I started taking supplements this month, that contain vitex too. I wonder if that's linked

York28 · 16/11/2019 16:25

@Lilice I think it’s possible to get all ovulation symptoms As your body gears up to do so but to not actually ovulate, then your body sometimes have another. One month after my miscarriage while everything was sorting itself out I had a cycle 38 days long, very unusual for me, but when I looked back over symptoms I realised I had had two instances of EWCM each lasting a few days but a week apart, so I wondered if that is what happened to me.

@Ceri87 how is going? Have you taken another test?

Ceri87 · 16/11/2019 18:47

@Lilice maybe it could be linked to supplements, or just a one off! But we scrutinise so much when TTC that when something is off it makes your mind go into overdrive doesn't it!

Yes! I did another test, I couldn't wait so of course I did it again the next day Hmm but the line is darker on second test so I think this is a good sign. Can barely believe it...

Anyone wanna tww with me ttc baby 3, 4dpo
Lilice · 17/11/2019 16:36

Congrats! Definitely positive, you must be so happy x

HE88 · 17/11/2019 17:10

@Ceri87 congratulations lovely news Grin xx

ChampooPapi · 19/11/2019 20:03

@Ceri87 congratulations, that's lovely news. You must be on cloud nine 💜

HE88 · 22/11/2019 20:32

Hi, just wondering if anyone can advise. I got my 1st flashing smiley face on the clearblue advanced digital opk this morning I then tested with a cheapie opk this evening and the line was a pretty strong colour as the control line. I've also noticed what looks like to me EWCM (egg-white cervical mucus) during today, does this mean I'm due to ovulate soon?

HE88 · 27/11/2019 18:52

How is everyone getting on? Sorry if this seems like a stupid
