Anyone testing beginning of March?

[yoomoo]

Hi all, apologies couldn’t find another thread so thought I’d start a new one!

I think I ovulated yesterday so now officially in the 2 week wait with AF due on 1st/2nd March.

Is anyone else on similar timescales and would like to join me for the TWW?

Bit of background, came off the pill mid December, first AF started on 31st Jan so this has been our first cycle of properly trying. I think we managed to DTD a decent amount over the fertile window but I’m not sure- tried to use OPKs but couldn’t get to grips with them really. Think I ovulated last night as I had really bad cramps, think I’ve been watching too many YouTube videos on ovulation as I could’ve sworn I felt it move out of the top of my ovary

Thanks @Hayd88 I’m really getting impatient now lol. I hate this anxiousness. I just can’t shake the feeling it’s not going to be a good month for it. No symptoms whatsoever apart from cramps and just feeling really tired, but I’m not sure if I’m coming down with something or not.

I really hope it works out for you this time 🤞🏼 I can’t imagine how it must feel x

@Hayd88 let us know how it goes over the week. I had a miscarriage last year and I'm convinced it will happen again but I guess you just have to keep positive!

I'm going to test next weekend as I'm not ready for the disappointment just yet.

Hi

May i join please?

We are TTC our first baby and im on my 5th cycle, 8dpo. AF is due next weekend but I've been getting very minor cramps for last couple of days so I'm feeling a bit down in the dumps that we might not have been successful this cycle...for some reason, I had a good feeling about it this one!

I have been using clearblue digital ovulation tests, has anyone else used these and gone from circle to static smiley in one day??

@Daisygord yes the last 2 cycles I've had exactly the same, had a MMC last year and before that I was getting flashy smileys then a static so I don't know why I'm not now?

Can I do a line eyes post on this thread girls or is that not the done thing please?

@JeanieInABottle go for it! We are all here to help each other x

I'm so sorry.

I was just using ovaview ones before but got these as I thought they would be better.

Will try them again next cycle if not successful this time around but maybe test twice a day and see if that makes a difference?

@foreverblowingbubbles18 i'm so sorry.

There’s my line eyes pic then - fully expecting no one to see anything !

@JeanieInABottle I don't think I can sorry how soon until AF? X

@lulubon thought you might say that!
I’m ?13 dpo by my app but I think more like 11dpo by symptoms - due tomorrow by my longest cycle. Vary a little bit by 26-31 days.

No sign of AF yet though.

@JeanieInABottle I'm sorry I think I'm in the same boat. I did a test when I assumed I was about 11po but it was negative. Now about 5 days until I'm due AF but I've not got high hopes...

I had the worst cramps all night last night, fully expecting af this morning but she’s a no show. They’re different to my usual af cramps though and I don’t normally get anything until it’s started. Any ideas? 10dpo today. Still creamy/ watery cm.

So I thought I’d come on at work, but no just loads of watery cm. I’ve been feeling really dizzy today too. Is it too early to test at 10dpo?

@Newbie0818 I'm pretty sure I've seen quite a few people test at 10dpo

Can I join in please?

I wasn't expecting to be testing to be honest. AF due last Thursday, as expected had some brown cm but that's it. Been off and on but not enough to even wear a liner/pad (although I have been "just incase").

Boobs are sore. Had the odd wave of feelings go sick. Feeling niggles at my belly/hips but defo different to pmt cramps. Feels wet and often expect AF to have arrived but nothing and now 5 days late.

Done two cheap tests and have had what I'd like to hope are squinters. FRERs bought and currently on the 4 hour hold to testing.

Baby dust to us all xx

@Newbie0818 I tested at 10dpo, so id say go for it but equally don't worry just yet if it's not a BFP. It may still be too early.

Good luck @wannabebump !! Fingers crossed as they sound like good signs, it being so late post AF being due?

I am again anxious with cramps and only a bit of nausea....although did another test this morning and this one looks a bit darker so am hoping all going ok 👌

Thanks for the replies @Lulubon and @Hayd88 . I’m getting so impatient lol. But thinking about it if I have just implanted (which is what I feel might have happened), I think you’re right and I should wait a few more days. The cramps were super intense though, never had such sharp pains like that. They’ve eased off now, still no af or spotting, still lots of cm. dizziness, heart burn now, headache. This is driving me insane!

That sounds similar to me @wannabebump - let us know how you get on!

@Newbie0818 when are u going to test again?

Positive on a FRER. Hoping that line is strong enough ❤️ (FYI - cheapies showed only a shadow of a line, and even then I thought I could be imagining it). Since my last AF, it would make me 4 weeks and 2 days today.

Yay congrats @wannabebump ! That is super exciting, and a lovely positive. How many dpo are you technically? I know you said 4 was 2d but my math is awful.

I have no idea. I’m only 10dpo and really want to avoid a bfn so may wait til the weekend. If I don’t cave! I don’t keep tests at home so it’s a lot of effort to actually go and get one haha x

@Newbie0818 I think I'm approx 15 days DPO... I have a short LP normally so my AF usually shows her face on/around 10dpo.

I'm delighted, but also now terrified. I had an ectopic last year, this is the first BFP since then. Convinced AF will start all the time...just keep looking at those 2 lines 🙈 this is month 17 for us for DC1 so I have everything crossed.

I had to go out and buy tests too... I'm pretty sure it's saved me a fortune but not having them in the house! Will u test before the weekend? X

@wannabebump awesome, I’m really happy for you after all that! I can’t imagine seeing those two lines for the first time, I wouldn’t be able to take my eyes off it haha! Hope everything progresses well for you 🤞🏼

My LP was only 9 days last month so Flo is predicting my af was due today. Who really ever knows though lol. I think I’m going to do my best to wait until Saturday morning if af still doesn’t show. I’ve got cramps again but milder than last night and this morning, more ‘burny’ 🤷🏼‍♀️

Congrats @wannabebump !!! That's a great line!! I understand the panic and anxiousness after loss but I guess it's really out of our control and we just need to chill. So hard though. I keep getting stitch-like pain on my right side which is how all the other chemicals started, but then it goes away.....

ANYWAY...congrats and I hope you can relax xx

I’m joining but i’m a bit out of sync with you all as I’m just past ovulation. I had very strong symptoms last month, really unmistakable, but started spotting early and then a full period so I guess it didn’t stick. I wish it wasn’t so very very obvious for me as it’s hard not to get too excited early on. DH has asked me to stop patting my boobs-“well they will get sore if you keep whacking them”!
