3DPO and feeling poorly 😔 TWW buddies?

[Twitchett22]

3DPO and feeling generally shit. Tiny little stabbing pains in my pubic area and my lower back is killing. Feeling sick and generally full. Have a feeling I'm just getting a bug but can't help wondering if it's something else. I know 3DPO is far too early for any kind of symptoms but its always in the back of my mind 🤷🏼‍♀️
Anyone else's AF due around 21st feb?

@Fifol I know it's a bit late but I would have had a drink

I'm now 8dpo and feeling completely different to last cycle. I had the bright red bleed at 1 and 2 dpo and not much else which is a big improvement from last cycle. I had a big temp dip yesterday at 7dpo and some very light brown spotting but temp has gone back up today. Lots of cramping too and feeling like AF is going to arrive, so really hoping it wont be early this cycle! Am trying to hold out testing until next Friday but will probably be earlier.

Hope everyone is ok

Hey @becca321 I'll join you in the TWW I'm 1DPO wahoo!! Fingers crossed for us!
I'm not tracking my temp this month, I think my thermometer is crap it always tells me different readings minutes apart! Good luck holding out testing xxx

Thanks all! I had a glass and really enjoyed it!!

Baby dust to all of you xx

@AliSxo yay! Fingers crossed for you x

@Fifol glad you enjoyed a glass

@AliSxo

heyy im ok, im cd 12 now, due to ovulate cd 20 according to natural cycles but hoping its sooner... i hate how long this FP is.. would like a nice 28 day cycle rather than 35-38 👎.

Iv started using cb connected monitor this month and just had a few flashing smileys so far .. cant wait to hopefully see a peak ill be so excited when i do as iv only ever used cheap opks and never seem to get a def positive i dnt think anyway and im still using them alongside my cb... just want to be in that tww again, as stressful as it is, its that feeling of hope that i like about it.

Seen ur comment about temping, ur thermometer will be working fine u know as thats what they do if u use them time after time ... i only know this as theres a testing section for ur thermometer on natural cycles and it tells u to take ur temp 3 times in a row to make sure u thermometer is working and each time my temp
Rises without physically moving and the app always confirms its working correctly. They are that sensitive thats all xx

Do you have a pic of ur positive opk ... do u only use cheapies? Xx

@Hayleylou89 hey, it's good to hear from you. The static smiley will be worth the wait, hang in there!! I agree with you, once you're in the TWW it's like we've done the best we can do and it's a waiting game.

My OPKS are below, I ovulated cd12 - strongest OPK was cd11 which is the 3rd one down and taken with SMU on Thursday.! Sorry they're a bit dry now!!

Thanks for the advice on temping, I just thought it was my thermometer playing up so I'll temp for the rest of this cycle.

TTC after a miscarriage is tough, I can't wait for that BFP, it doesn't seem to be happening since my really early MC in October and I'm worried we'll have to be refered if we haven't conceived by the end of the summer. I had a 21day blood test done and my levels were fine, tempted to send DP for a private sperm analysis, however because we caught in September I don't know if that's why we haven't caught yet, I also think/know I'm just really impatient and can not wait to be pregnant. Sending you lots of love xxx

@AliSxo

Ah yeah u can tell thats a peak definitely!

Yeah carry on temping cos if ur temp stays high ull know from that aswell... i always know if my temp drops then AF is coming but fingers and everything else crossed this is ur month and u dnt need to go down the testing road!

Fingers crossed i get my peak and u get ur bfp... when will u start testing ? Xxx

@Hayleylou89 I'd love not to test but the urge always gets the best of me, maybe 10dpo if I really have to this month - work is normally a good distraction but wfh now so I might test super early 😂 xx

@AliSxo ill be the exact same!! X

Hey guys, was 3 days late on my period and then started having Brown spotting and it's like a really light light period but without the horrible cramps. I usually bleed really bad and really bright red but I've only have to use 1 pad for literally the whole day. Obviously not hoping I'm pregnant, and know it's probably my period but does anyone have any stories ...

Hi @Lmac2018 no story sorry but did you take a test?

@Lmac2018 I would just take a test

Not sure how I'll cope this cycle as I've got no distractions, normally work keeps my mind busy but now even at 2dpo I'm like right so when's good to test? 😂 hope everyone is well xx

@AliSxo I know exactly what you mean! I ovulate on Tuesday and already dreading the ttw with nothing to do! I'm working from home but it's not the same. Just hoping it doesn't drag as much as I think it will!

How you feeling about this cycle? I've just gone into my 7th and hoping it's our lucky one!

So fertility friend took away my cross hairs this morning (before had said I was 10 dpo. After feeling so positive about this cycle, I am now feeling a bit fed up. Hope everyone else is having better luch! X

@becca321 oh no 😢 sorry to hear that.

Feeling very average this cycle - cycle 7 now, ovulate tomorrow and don't really have high hopes this month. Just going to try and focus on other stuff I think.

Very fed up.

Hope you're okay.

Feeling pretty fed up, had the biggest temp rise this morning too so was so hopeful, especially as had what I thought was a very faint positive on a cheap test last night, but after no more cross hairs and a negative this morning, it must have been an indent

You never know @HalfPenny28 feeling more relaxed may result in a positive!

Bl3eding has pretty much stopped now... negative tests. My periods are usually really heavy and really painful but it's pretty much stopped now

@becca321 @HalfPenny28 I'm fed up too, however I'm much less stressed and this month has been super busy just lots going on so I'm not focusing too much on the TWW, or my cycle in general. I'm still trying and I really hope I catch, sending you all lots of love. I'm 3dpo today xx

@Lmac2018 you might just have had a different period, if the bleeding is around the same time you'd normally expect your period and you're having negative tests I'd advise you wait 3/4 more days and test again if you're still not sure if it was your period. Some people have implantation bleeding but normally 6/12days past ovulation this occurs?

I'm not sure when I ovulated as I didn't use opks this months so I'm not sure wether I ovulated late or not x

Just catching up and hope everyone is feeling ok this cycle! Hubby is working away and only back at the weekends for the next 4 months 😩 It's our first wedding anniversary this weekend and according to Flo I'm ovulating. I'm not doing ovulation tests while hubby is away because it will just upset me if I'm ovulating and he's not here. So going for the "laid back" approach for the next 4 months, since everyone is always telling us all to do that anyway eh 🤣 I wonder how long it will be until I crack and POA?? Should we start a poll 😂 xx

CD1 I'm afraid... very light start to AF. Here we go again!!

So I'm eating allllll the chocolate 🙊

@Fifol sorry to hear that, eat all the chocolate, watch trash tv and just be super kind to yourself xx
