TTC ..... those with TWW Starting around 11feb ?come keep me company !!!

[Donnat89]

Hi all ,

I want some company .... currently in my 10 month of TTC after a miscarriage last March at 14 weeks

Due to ovulate around the 10th so my TWW will start around the 11th

Anyone else in the same boat ? Let's keep each other company

Ps I need support not to test early as drove myself mad last month !

Xxx

@Donnat89 I know, I went mad the end of last week. Almost a relief to be on af now with no symptoms to spot. Wishing you a relaxed 2nd week.

@Juno231 ooh I would be excited by a high cervix! It sometimes depends on what position your body is in, but sounds positive!

@mrschicken89 I haven't tested for ages and have only ever done 3 tests (bought a pack of 5 when we first started ttc and I'm determined to get my positive with the two that are left), but I would always test in secret! I leave the ins and outs of TTC to me, my partner is fairly oblivious. Just praying one day I'll be able to show him a BFP!

@Skyla01 thanks a mill. Hope I can stay positive & relaxed. The weekend was great cos even though we were only at home it was busy and really distracted me.
I'm only 3DPO so I've a long wait yet! Really hoping to stop myself symptom spotting this month, there's no good in it for me cos I don't think I feel the same any month, period or BFP! I'm also going to try not test until AF is a no show if I get that far. Good luck to everyone in TWW and good luck to those starting into FW time again! Beautiful sunshine today so lets keep positive ladies! x

@Donnat89 - how are you doing 2ww buddy?

This is our first cycle of trying - I have NO IDEA what to look for. I'm 7dpo. Today and yesterday evening I've had some pains intermittently. They're a bit crampy, like ovulation pains. Generally I don't get cramps until 1-2 days before AF but she's not due until the 20th. Should that be something I take note of? I got a BFN today but I wasn't surprised seeing as I'm only 7dpo.

@MrsEmilyB yes I'm ok , I haven't tested yet but I know I will cave soon , usually by now is start getting back ache a sure sign for me AF is coming but nothing today so could be a good sign , however I have been really irritable so may be an AF sign as I do get like that from time to time .

I would say the slight cramping could be implantation pain so I would take note of it just in case as any symptoms are good to note as you start to notice a pattern in your cycles .

I so hope everyone still waiting gets there BFPS !

I am more relaxed this month than other months due to all that is going on but I'm still hoping il get my BFP !

Xxxx

@Donnat89 I've got my fingers crossed for
you, I really hope this is your month!

I've lost hope a little bit today. Just doesn't feel like this is the month anymore. Saying that, my heart rate has dropped another 2bpm today which is too early for AF (unless I'm really early again!) so I'm still hoping it's an implantation sign.

@Juno231 thanks hun hopefully it's all
Good news for you too ! I'm just trying to stay relaxed , not sure how long that will last
For though ! X

Good morning Ladies! Yesterday I posted about my crampy/pinchy ovulation type pains at 7dpo...today (8dpo), my CM is tinted very pale pinky brown when I wipe (sorry, TMI). I NEVER spot or get cramps between periods. Could this be an implantation bleed?

On my BBT chart my temp dipped yesterday too, and has shot back up this morning! I'm too new to be allowed to post pictures 😭 but I'll give it a go

@mrsemilyb that looks super promising!! What DPO are you planning on testing?

I had a BFN today but to be expected at 10dpo!

@juno231 - is a temperature dip a good thing? I felt really disappointed yesterday when my temp dropped 😥

@MrsEmilyB I agree it does look promising! Fingers crossed for you .

8DPO today I feel like the days are dragging ! But still not wanting to test .

I just hate this second week of waiting and wish it would go fast ! X

@juno231 - sorry, missed the other bit! AF is due Monday so I may do a FRER Sunday?

Yes @mrsemilyb it's called and implantation dip - if you Google it you'll see lots of charts with it!

@MrsEmilyB my AF is due on Sun so let's hope neither one of ours arrives this month!

@Juno231 I haven't heard of people using heart rate to track their cycle. Does it work well?

Fingers crossed for all you guys- hope AF stays away!

@Skyla01 from what I gather it basically mimics bbt pretty much. So if you look at my cycle you can see my RHR dropping 3 days in a row to 62 for my AF and then peaking for my ovulation at 72.

It tends to drop again for implantation and should go high and stay that way for BFP. If it starts dropping just before AF is due then it's gonna be a BFN or a CM.

Hi all- just been catching up on the last week! Sorry for not joining in much, we are potty training my little girl and work is pretty busy so I don't get to stop much. Plus after obsessing last month I've decided to try and chill a bit more! Currently 4dpo according to me, or 6dpo by femometer so still a way to go before the urge to poas is unstoppable!

Following on from implantation dips (and bleeds) I've had both, in pregnant and none pregnant cycles so they send my head into a spin but I try and ignore them now!

Hi everyone, thought I'd join - currently on my first ever TWW and 2PO. Can immediately see why everyone finds this wait really hard!

@localbunny welcome to the group , and good luck with the TWW I'm currently 8DPO and not feeling positive at all back ache has
Got worse so pretty sure it will be a BFN again this month .

Good
Luck you you !

@Sammyclaire22 welcome back hope you are ok and keeping well ! Xx

Thanks @donnat89! I'm good- we've all been well in our house for the last couple of weeks, one good side of no nursery!
How are you doing?

I'm with you on hating this part. Once I hit 7dpo I start getting impatient and all my chill goes out the window. I messed up my bbt right around ovulation this month (neighbour rang me in the early hours) so I think my app has put it 2 days earlier than it was. Advanced warning that I will probably meltdown around 13dpo as I loose all willpower and common sense!
I'm tempted to try and force myself not to test before AF is due, normally I like the idea of finding out early but I dread to think of the money I've spent on frer (and all the other tests!)

@localbunny - welcome 😊

@Donnat89 - still keeping all my fingers crossed for you! I'm 9dpo today and just feel so super anxious for no reason 😭

Gah last night I had stabby sharp pains and it was sooo hard not to get excited about the thought of it potentially being implantation when I'm sure it'll end up just having been gas or something equally ridiculous. 11DPO now and still BFN so I think I need to start getting realistic about AF showing up on Sunday!

@Sammyclaire22 yes same here I've been so chilled this cycle and felt ok but now I just feel crappy and not confident about it at all I am gonna test tomorrow at 10DPO I have ICS so will use them I am expecting a BFN though , I wanted to try wait until AF is due but I'm too impatient and want to get the disappointment done with !

@MrsEmilyB yes 9DPO today here too , had some back ache last few days so pretty certain AF is on the way

@Juno231 bless you there is still hope so I've got my fingers crossed for you , but I know how you feel . I've had odd pains this morning but don't think it was anything at all like you said probably some wind .

Xx

@Donnat89 - I know what you mean! I just feel super negative today (yesterday I was really positive!) and just want to know it's a no this month so I can be sad and then get geared up for next month.

@juno231 - it's still early days 🤞 if you've implanted late you'd expect a BFN for the minute as it's the implantation that causes the hcg rise!

Symptom guessing is such a bugger isn't it 😥

I'm feeling bloated and a little crampy. I don't usually cramp until the day before AF. She's not due til monday but maybe she'll turn up tomorrow just for shits and giggles. I've put a nice bottle of red into the tesco shop to commiserate with if needed!

@MrsEmilyB yes totally get what you mean I go from being negative to being really positive and like you I just want to know either way then I can be sad and move on !

Still got to hope I suppose but also prepare for the BFN ... AGAIN !

Xxx

@Juno231 that's interesting. Is a fitbit the best monitor and do you wear it overnight? I like the sound of temping but I'm a bad sleeper so it wouldn't work.

Ladies I wish I knew the answer to a relaxed end to the TWW! Last week I went loopy. This cycle I've to try and not know exactly when AF is due, then I can't fixate too much. However it's not exactly hard to work out the date when my cycle is bang on 30/31 days so my plan is a bit flawed!
