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

Something to look forward to is always a good plan :)
I think AF is due the 27th but toying with the idea of waiting until the 29th to test if AF hasn't arrived as it would be nice to get a bfp on a leap day. Means I might have a bit more self control over poas too! Not expecting a positive this month though, the glitter of what if we are super lucky again has worn off!

Yes a treat is always good ! Im trying to hold out testing for as long as possible but I'm getting restless ....so not sure how much longer I can hold off for ! X

Symptom spotting update (hey, if I’m not early testing, I need some form of stress relief 😂):

Experienced mild cramping yesterday (8 dpo) starting around 2pm and it got progressively worse -started feeling sharp and on one side by about 7pm, but nothing I needed pain relief for. That’s admittedly unusual for me.

Woke up this morning (9 dpo) to sparse dull cramping.

AF is due on Monday...we’ll see. 🤞🏾

Lexie that sounds really positive!

At 8dpo I'm tearful and bloated, my uterus feels heavy / mild cramps and I have mild backache, my boobs hurt and I have a headache... completely feels like AF is due, even though I should have a fair few days yet. Keep thinking if this was my month I wouldn't have AF symptoms like this and its really getting me down. Can anyone talk sense to me? I know 8dpo is too early to know either way but my luteal phase is only usually 11 days and I was hopeful up until today now suddenly something has changed. Just don't feel like it's my month. Anyone similarly struggling?

@AsSurprisedAsYouAre I have had feelings like this due to mild back ache last few days which is a symptom of AF for me although month I had back ache much worse , I don't really have any advise but don't count yourself out until AF comes .

I will be 10DPO tomorrow and really struggling not to test but I just don't want to deal with the disappointment just yet ! So holding out hope .

The crap thing about AF symptoms is that they can be the same as early pregnancy symptoms and for everyone the symptoms are different so there is no way to compare

Just try stay positive until AF shows xxxx

@AsSurprisedAsYouAre: I felt like that last month. Now I’m trying to be stronger and not mind-f myself either way. I know it can be so hard to stay positive or even neutral at this point, but personally, I won’t count myself in or out until I see what next week has in store. Just a little while longer until we know. Hang in there!

(Camps became more central over the morning and now they’ve stopped, fyi).

Girls
I need help
I am probably 9 dpo... And i am so sad already because I already convinced myself I have no symptoms etc. I really want to test but whats the point..
What can I do. I want to cry.
Xxx

@Adrianoska awww please don't give up yet . Not everyone get symptoms I think we all like to think we would know but every time I have been pregnant I've not had a single symptom until at least 6 weeks . So don't count yourself out until AF shows .

I am 9DPO too and I think the earliest you can test is 10/11 DPO with FRER (depends on your cycle length) my cycle is 27 days so I could test tomorrow but Im holding out I would like to see if I can wait until AF due and if she doesn't then test .

Try to stay positive and don't count yourself out yet xxx

Thanks for the kind words @donnat89 and @lexieBB, and I really feel for you @adrianoska. This thread really is a wonderful help this month. Its so difficult. I'm trying to log my CM as well and I think I'd describe it as 'sticky' tonight but fertility friend says that's a strong sign of not pregnant. I feel sick, but I'm pretty sure that is just all the worrying! What are we like!? TTC is a complete nightmare in a way, isn't it?
Still, statistically some of us on this thread are likely to get BFPs this month so even if it isn't me I am looking forward to seeing some of those happy double lines posted soon. I am going to try not to test tomorrow, 9dpo still feels too soon and I have a 13hr day at work so if it starts off with a negative I'll just dwell in misery all day! But fingers crossed to anyone testing in the morning xx

Thank you... 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Obviously before i read your texts i went and did some asda test. Ffs. Wish i didn't! Of course it is negative. And of course I want to cry. I really don't know what is wrong with me!
I feel too sad this month. I know when my period comes my husband will be too upset. This is heartbreaking. Why can't i wait full two weeks to test? X

Oh god I've just come on here to tell you what I've done..read your posts and I've done the same..

8/9dpo went to b and m bargains to get some cheap cheap tests and just done one now..

Of course it's negative..lol why did I bother..
I believe I'm out now but I know I'm technically still in it..

Such an idiot

Honestly! I am just too pissed off with mu own stupid self. Now I fee crap.
And apparently the implantation sometimes doesn't happen untill 10 or 11dpo.. So we are not out yet, are we? I don't get it, if the hormons changes happen only after implantation why test say they can detect evwn 6db period?
Oh I hate this waiting. Please someone tells me it is TOO EARLY

I feel the pain of you all I really do ! I'm also tracking my cm and would say it's sticky to perhaps I am out this month !

I may test tomorrow as will be 10dpo as I'm getting To anxious now and it's making me feel sick .

@Adrianoska it is defo still early so please don't worry wait a couple of days and test again using FMU

I'm still gonna goth the urge to test and if I do will be using FMU .

Fingers crossed for everyone! Xxxx

Don't feel crap because it is technically too early.
I just couldn't resist lol
Still in it so don't beat yourself up.

You are right.
I have been TTC for only 3 months but now I feel it will never happen.
I am pretty desperate.
Tomorrow I will have a bad day.

@Adrianoska try to stay positive 3 months isn't that long , we've been trying almost a year this time round and I get the feeling oh it will never happen but it will . Just be patient xxx

Try to keep yourself busy and try to focus on positive things honest you will be ok xxxx

This is so kind...
I have two children already from my previous marriage. They are 12 abd 6
.... It did take 6 month of ttc each time but now I am 36 😒 and my husband is only 30 and he really wants to be a father 🙏🏻. I am so worried now.
This month ww really did everything right... Why is it not happening?
I pray we scored but feel negative... Xxx love to you all xxx

Hi ladies can I join? I think I ovulated around the 11th/12th.
TTC my 2nd 🙏🏻 best of luck to you all this cycle

@Adrianoska I am the same I have 2 from a previous relationship, who are 7 and 10 , we did manage to fall last year but I lost the baby at 14 weeks and it was awful . It took us a year to conceive that one and now are will be another year on at the end of March

I'm 31 my partner is 29 with no children of his own .

I totally get how you feel but try not to put too much pressure on yourself it will all be Oki. Xxxx

@Pomeranian welcome to the nut house , when is your AF due ? Do you plan on testing early xxx

@Donnat89 hiya my cycles are not completely predictable but I would expect AF around 28th, got everything crossed. I probably shouldn't, but going to test tomorrow morning with the one step early tests 🙏🏻 it's an obsession! I was the same last month POAS. I swore this month I'd wait until AF was due x

@Pomeranian I have sworn the same and also have some one steps and FRER . But I'm trying to hold out ! Xx

@Donnat89 I am so sorry to hear about your lost... It is unbelievably painful.

Oh fingers crossed you will get lucky again soon.

It is difficult not to put the pressure... It is almost impossible not to think "what if I will never get pregnant?"... It makes me feel worried.

Anyway. Now I am totally convinced I didn't score this month.

Just have to wait. Wait... Wait...
Xx

@Pomeranian, are you crazy? It is too early to test 😜

Omg. I am so upset i haven't got any more tests left. I want to test now! But all I can feel is cystitis coming. Brilliant.

@Adrianoska @Donnat89
This is why you do not test early😓😓
FMU and left for 3 mins. I thought I could see a line so I inverted it🙈 what do you think???
I know it's way too early...Arghhhh crazy x
