1DPO - the TWW begins

[Em4815]

Anyone in the same boat and fancy some company over the next couple of weeks?

I'm 32, DH 31 - TTC#1 and this is cycle 3.

@floordrobey ah shame! Still time you never know. Last time I didn’t text until day period was due and got BFP. I did have really sore boobs then though and right now they’re fine. Though I know it’s not always the same I’m feeling less hopeful

@floordrobey Wow I had no idea you could get them from eBay for so cheap! This is my 3rd cycle I’ve been using the Waitrose ones so far. Slightly red faced everytime I go to the counter to pay now haha but that won’t stop me think I’ll get some more today, still 6 days to go ..

Best of luck @floordrobey & @BuffaloCauliflower I'm 2 days till af is due. Had few symptoms here and there . But not sure this month. I'm not gonna test till I'm late. I'm actually chilled this month. Im taking my own advice for a change..if ita meant to be it will be !!

@BuffaloCauliflower My last pregnancy was 9dpo so I'm guessing that's why I'm getting my hopes up now , I was more chilled back then too !

@diamondsInThe I didn't either until Mumsnet ! Saved me lots of money this time round !

@ladytmp fingers crossed for you!

@ladytmp well done for being chilled, can I have some of that please?!

@floordrobey are the cheapies as sensitive though?

@BuffaloCauliflower I see them on post all the time , so I guess so , have a look on eBay and see what you think 🤔

@floordrobey Thanks will do

I think the only issue with them is the indent and getting your hopes up with a false positive. I used some supermarket cheapies and the indent lines were very visible.

Hey can I join in? I'm 9dpo, this is my 12 cycle after a couple of miscarriage, so I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I've had some good symptoms this time, I've loved reading all the comments and it's nice to know I'm not the only one who hates waiting 😊 good luck to everyone, fingers crossed we get our bfp x

Hey @Sazzy312 Welcome aboard!

I’m exactly same as you, 9dpo. Sorry to hear about your miscarriage. What symptoms do you have?

@DiamondsInThe ah same day 🖒 I've had bloating and gas since 6dpo I had lights cramps since day 6, day 7 was this sort of tugging sensation, I said to oh I feel like it's implanting (but who knows) 8dpo woke up feeling pregnant and today I woke up after the worst night sleep ever tossed and turnt from about 4am (never happens to me) oh and a few headache and sore breast and this strange taste in mouth, ooh and quite a bit of cm in my pants for the last few days, how about you? I know when I ovulated as used a kit this month, first time using one

@Sazzy312 I’ve had some bloody CM at 6dpo, comes and goes had a little more today so presuming it might be implantation bleeding, get cramps whilst it’s happening. Boobs are really sore, I’ve today woken up and got 4 huge painful spots on my face which is really unlike my normal PMS symptoms.

I did cave in and do a FRER but it was negative, I’ll defo try and wait it out a little longer. I ordered some off eBay today too haha

Hello everyone, can I join? 👋

TTC #1, cycle 6. Currently CD20, not entirely sure when I ovulated (stopped OPKs this month as needed a break and never got a positive). But had 4 days EWCM (for the first time!) CD12-15 so I'm guessing sometime around then 🤞.

I had some cramps on CD16 and have had sore boobs since CD17, and am going slightly mad. Desperate to take a test but trying to hold out until next Sunday when AF is due according to my apps.

Thank you for all your stories, it's helpful I'm not the only one going crazy! 🤯 good luck to all 🤞

Urgh BFN this morning so think I'm out which has pissed me off greatly ... seems if I get 'symptoms' it's AF and if I don't it's AF too! Feel like I can't trust my body! Was so sure the teeny bit of pink I had last week could have been implantation - it looked exactly like photos of it online! Grrrr...

I'll wait and test again in a couple of days just in case but not holding out hope.

Hoping the rest of you have better news than me!! X

BFN at 10DPO for me today too. Due Tuesday as have reasonably short cycles but not getting any other symptoms, I think I’m out this month. Oh well. A week and we’ll be back to trying again I guess!

Not getting any symptoms* that should be, no ‘other’. I’m not getting anything at all, AF related or otherwise really. Twinges last week have stopped but I think maybe I get them all the time but just don’t think about them.

A BFN for me too this morning, currently 10dpo. Periods due on Friday so will test again then.

Now I’ve got some mild cramping and my boobs are less sore too. Goodness know what’s happening in there. Mentally preparing for AF now

BFN for me too this morning too, I was so so sure this was the month. I'm going to wait to May now and just chill for a few months , I think I'm so stressed about it it's making my cycles different - was 9 days late last month.

Sorry @DiamondsInThe and @floordrobey we’ll keep going till we get there

I think I'm out ladies...worst nights sleep ever last night, and today have started what I think is AF. Its light and has decreased since this morning. I'm also early my app said AF in 1 day but normally ita a few days after the app predicts anyway.. but I'm guessing its AF. Nevermind!! What will be will be!

So casually been ignoring odd symptoms as I spot every month with little success and anyway today I'm 11dpo and just thought I'd do a quick IC...because I have stack of them. Well, low and behold there is the absolute faintest of smudges on it if I hold it up to the light. Well I popped out the Frer and...BAM stong BFP!

This will be dc3 and we've been ttc for about a yr. I get hyperemisis though so it's news received with mixed emotions as I'm basically just waiting to start throwing up

@misstiggiwinkle a big fat CONGRATULATIONS! So nice to hear some positive news! What kind of symptoms have you been having? I’ve been spotting/pink discharge for 5 days now
