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 !

@Donnat89 have you told OH yet or holding off to see if AF shows?

@Juno231 yes I have he's happy but also like me not wanting to get to excited .

Hopefully it gets darker and this isn't a cruel trick .

Ive still got backache which usually
Means AF is coming so I really don't know but no cramping really which I usually do have by now as day before AF , over the weekend I was having weird shooting cramps but that stopped so I just don't know I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic.

Xxxx

I don't know if it helps @Donnat89 but I see a line as a line which means I am pregnant. If the line then doesn't get darker or does but then disappears then I at least can take comfort from the fact I conceived and got far enough for it to make detectable hcg which is progress. And there is nothing to say that this isn't the start of something amazing for you x

Nothing really to report here- not sure if I can see a faint shadow on my cheap test. I've been having a tiny amount of spotting in my cm, but I've had that before so not reading into it. Hoping my frer arrive this evening so I can move on to next month mentally. Craving chocolate and being a moody cow so i assume AF is on route!

Side topic- has anyone done anything drastic in the lock down? I decided to chop myself a side fringe late last night.. fortunately it looks ok this morning!

Oh @Donnat89 I really hope it is. Would be super news for you and give us all some hope too. Praying AF doesn't show up for you!

I'm on CD23, 11DPO and AF due between Thurs-Sat. Cycles have been between 23-26 days so not sure what story is. Not sure if I have symptoms or not. Very vivid dreams the last 2 nights, strange taste in mouth yday but then today have a really heavy feeling in my tummy and I normally get that and really bloated before AF. I'm also a tad tetchy today too which can also be a sign AF is lurking!! Oh I don't know. I'm holding out until Thurs morning to test unless AF shows up before then!
Anyone else testing in the next few days/weekend?xx

@Sammyclaire22 yes that's what I'm trying to think like and hope to sticks if it is something .

I will know tomorrow either way I suppose .

I haven't done anything radical yet although I'm tempted to die my hair 😅😅😅

Fingers crossed for you guys near the end of the TWW- some promising signs so far!

I've just been doing some yoga which is meant to thicken the womb lining (lots of groin stretches!), will see how that goes! Not due to ovulate until next week but had ewcm today, will DTD regularly and see what happens!

@Adrianoska any positive opk yet?

Still waiting... 😔 It has risen today as the line is darker but still not high... That's unusual, normally I would have it by now. I did 3 tests today. Last night I got pissed off with my husband as we didn't bd! But I was certain I will be peaking today. And I didn't. Should get a positive tomorrow... So bd today? Or tomorrow? We did like 5 days on a trot and he is knackered. I am just going crazy. 😫👋🏻🌸

Tested with my frer today but think it's given me an evap. Enough to give me hope for a few mins, but pretty sure there is no colour, so annoying.

@Sammyclaire22 not out until AF shows I keep telling myself I've had a dodgy test just can't get too excited until no AF or a stronger line but it's soo difficult!

Not much longer to wait I guess il know in the morning !

X

@Donnat89 that's a lovely positive to me! Biggest congratulations, keep us posted!

I'm currently 6 dpo, cramping, I seem to cramp in my cycle post ov, have noticed this the past couple of cycles. Not sure what is means, no BFP out of it yet anyway. CM has been a bit watery this cycle. Need to stop symptom spotting or it's gonna drive me mad. Promised myself I wouldn't this cycle 🙈xx

Bfn this morning and at least 11dpo so pretty sure I'm out. More frer arriving today to tide me over to AF though. Must get help with poas addiction lol.

Hoping for some good news from you guys this morning!

@Sammyclaire22 sorry to hear that but see how you get on, you're still in with a chance.

@Adrianoska don't worry- I'm sure your peak will come soon! I wouldn't worry about missing a night. You probably havent ovulated yet. Some people say dtd every other day is best anyway as gives sperm time to replenish. Maybe best to do every other day until positive opk and then a few days in row?

Good luck to those anxiously awaiting AF (or not!)

Morning ladies no sign of AF yet and she's due today

Did a IC this morning and BFN so not sure what's going on . I have some FRER arriving today so will test again using one of them

@Sammyclaire22 I got a BFN at 12DPO and if the one yesterday I did was right then your defo not out yet

Xxxx

@donnat89 don't worry if your Ic is negative- they are usually a lot less sensitive. The only cheap ones I've found that give a faint result when frer are just positive are the wilko ones. I usually see a shadow on them when it looks like your frer yesterday.
I have 2 lots of frer arriving today, panic bought last night then my subscribe ones are coming early- muppet! After being sure I was last night today I don't feel pg at all. These are the hardest few days of the month!

@Sammyclaire22 yea others have said the same to me but then I see others getting BFPS so who knows !

Yes the last few days are the worst ! I'm feeling a bit more positive as AF hasn't arrived today but I was like 4 days late last month so my cycles may have changed up again which is annoying I just hope the FRER don't take forever to arrive !

Xxxx

@Skyla01 you are totally right 🌸
Last night I took another opk and it came very hight or positive at 10pm!
Well anyway we did BD last night (twice, hahah, I don't know what happened to my husband 🤣) and today I will test again to see what's going on... My CM is certainly fertile. I pray it's this month...

Ramadan starts on Friday... My husband is Muslim (I am not) and I think it wil be harder to BD during that month...

🌸

@Adrianoska you'll be fine if you are still in the game next month- you can DTD every other day, or once you have positive opk. It only takes 1 sperm! Are there rules about DTD during Ramadan, or are you worried he'll be too tired?

@Donnat89 it's sounding good if AF hasn't shown!

@Adrianoska woop I'm glad you got your positive OPK. And so your TWW begins :D You could start testing next weekend already, crazy how time flies!

I'm just on CD5 so still just waiting on FW to start. In the meantime I worry about things like being low on estrogen without knowing it and not having any CM really. I'm not obsessing about it or anything but haven't got much else to do other than letting my mind wander!

Been feeling rubbish this week, can't remember if I've mentioned. Tired, carpal tunnel hurting due to wfh and feeling so incredibly cooped up. Shed a tear or two on Monday in particular but today I had a flower delivery from my pregnant friend I've mentioned and it was so sweet of her to try and cheer me up social distancing style.

@Juno231 worry? I tell you about worry hahhah. Wait. I know how to worry.

I worry that :
*I do not ovulate at all
*I have not enough progesterone
*I have too much sex
*I have not enough sex
*I am too old (36)
*i have blocked tubes
*I am too fat (70kg)
*I eat too much sugar
*I worry that worrying is detrimental to my fertility (this is good one🤣)
*I have PCOS
*I will never get pregnant and my husband will leave me
*I will go mad
*I neglect my kids because of obsessing over TTC
*I am doing something wrong but don't know what
*it's my 5th cycle and should be pregnant by now!
*I have undiagnosed health problems or illness
All sorts..

I have never been diagnosed with anything... My cycles are rather short nowadays (24 or 25 days) and I ovulate around cd12... I have two children from a previous marriage and we suffered a miscarriage 8 months ago...

I worry so much.

But right now I am sitting here and ovulating. Like a mother hen I am laying my egg...

BD twice last night and I am hopping to get my husband again cornered tonight 😂

@Juno231 i also cry over all this often. Especially when AF arrives and I stand in the shower crying, every month the same... Horrible feeling. But let's hope it will happen soon to us all 🌸

@Skyla01 the rules are no sex during fasting (from sunrise to sunset) and I think we are OK at night. I just worry that he will be knackered and in a wrong sort of mood... You know. Religiously devoted etc...
I am desperate. Really I mean it. Omg.

@Adrianoska I know how you feel- I want that bfp / pregnancy / baby so much! I think when will it be my turn? Hopefully soon... keep trying ladies and we will get there in the end!

So did a FRER Invalid bloody test no lines at all so gonna wait until morning to take the next one as don't want to waste it .

If AF still a no show will be a good sign !

The wait continues !

Omg what are the odds?? @donnat89 that's actually kinda hilarious!

@adrianoska well I'm glad I'm not the only crazy one ha! I worry I'll end up resenting my OH if this doesn't pan out as he's the one who's putting this off for years and I've stupidly just been waiting patiently for him to come round.

Donna you give us hope though! Still can't believe how long your struggle has been, you're a star for carrying on with such a level head about it!

@Juno231 it's just my luck I'm telling you !

Haha I don't feel level headed I have my bad days when I feel like it will never happen and wonder why it's taking so long . But I can't change any of these things so no point worrying about any of it too much just keep going !

Just see what tomorrow brings now if still no AF is a good sign but if she arrives least I can move onto the next cycle.
