Hi all,

Now in my TWW. We have been trying for DC #2 since October 19 and I had a chemical early March.

I usually use Clearblue Dig Ovulation tests but this month I just used cheapie OPK's.

Fingers and toes crossed 🤞🏻

Would love you hear all of your TTC stories.

Woke up today with such painful boobs which is very unusual for me! although it's more in one than the other!

I think when you are TTC you become so finely tuned to your body you notice every little twinge don't you and yes agree that its really hard to distinguish PMS symptoms to PG symptoms! I've had my hopes up SO many times to then get AF - it's really hard. Every month I say I won't symptom spot and then here I am again Hmm

@KSI88 bfn this morning:(. going to hold off until Sunday as I’m only 7dpo atm! Still hopeful but that was a bit gutting haha

DontStandSoClose · 15/04/2020 18:15

7 days after ovulation is vv early to test, I’d save your tests until you are 11/12 days. I’m 14 days past ovulation today, depending on whether my period comes on Friday I’ll test sometime over the weekend. We only just started trying for our 3rd, our children are 4 and 2. There wasn’t much in the way of trying needed with the other 2 we are very lucky, but I’ve got a feeling as we both turn 37 this year I think it might actually take longer than 1st go that’s why I decided to post this time (I never did with my other pregnancies). Our attempt was probably a little half arsed this month too I think we managed sex twice if that inside what I think was my fertile window, it isn’t easy to have sex when your kids are around pretty much 24/7!

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 18:21

@lk123 Oh no that's not so good but there's still plenty of time. I got my BFP at 11dpo in Feb. Some of these tests are so cruel. I've had evap lines that really do look positive. Everything crossed for you Grin

incywincyspiders · 15/04/2020 18:33

I'm going to try not to test until I'm 12dpo but that's another 9 days away and I'm already losing my mind 😂

lk123 · 15/04/2020 18:34

So true!! Defo gonna wait for the weekend as will be 11dpo then:)

DontStandSoClose · 15/04/2020 18:40

I’ve just tried to work out how many dpo I got a positive test, I think it was 14 and 12, both weren’t all that clear and I had to test again the day after to be sure. I hadn’t tested before this either time though.

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 18:40

I'm going to try and hold off until 10dpo. Only 4dpo today. Trying to busy myself!

OP posts:
DontStandSoClose · 15/04/2020 18:44

If you don’t have any in the house you can’t test lol!

Aluasen · 15/04/2020 19:26

@KSI88 I changed my mind, I'm going to test on Sunday. I'll be 11dpo at that point. I don't know who I was trying to kid thinking I could hold off until 14dpo Grin

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 19:32

Is 50 enough?? 🙈😁

Loves2Read · 15/04/2020 19:53

@KSI88 😆 I think 50 is just about enough! I’ll be 15DPO tomorrow and haven’t tested yet.. I only have two tests! I’ve a feeling that it’ll be a BFN but fingers crossed and if not then as my other half says, “we go again!” 😂. This thread is keeping me sane, thanks everyone! 💙

incywincyspiders · 15/04/2020 21:17

Where did you get the 50 pack from? I thought I was pushing the boat out with buying 20 😂

Dimosaur · 15/04/2020 21:33

Hello all!
Also just starting the TWW, first month of trying for number 2, I've an 18 month old!

I got a bfp at 10dpo last time, and we only had unprotected sex twice within the fertile week, so here's hoping for that luck again!

Best of luck ladies, look forward to seeing some bfp over the next few weeks!

MissAR · 15/04/2020 21:41

@KSI88 😮 wow I always wanted to buy that pack too but then I would take 10 test per day and It's not good for my mental health 😅Hope you won't get the chance to finish them...send us the rest after your BFP 😅🤞🏻

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 22:26

@incywincyspiders Got these on Amazon. I can't wait to use them.

@MissAR Here's hoping I won't need them all. God knows what I'll do if I get my BFP this month! I'll be using one every 5 minutes I think.. 🙈

@Dimosaur Hi and good luck! I got my BFP with DC #1 on my first cycle of TTC. This one is proving to be a little bit harder however we're 6 years 😊🤞🏻

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 22:27

6 years on even!

Hi everyone,
Hope you don’t mind a newbie joining in!
I’ve just started the tww and have sneakily been on the chats without posting so thought I’d pop up to say hello 😊
I’m 4dpo (I think) and af is due on 25th.. This is all very new to me and are trying for our first so just waiting to see what happens for a few cycles. All this decoding has certainly been fun 😂
Hoping for lots of bfps for everyone!

heybb · 15/04/2020 22:30

@KSI88 Hello! Just got to say I proper LOL’d at your sore nips comment from this morning 🤣🤣

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 22:40

@heybb Hi! I actually wondered if it was TMI posting my comment about sore nipples this morning 😆 When do you plan on testing?

OP posts:
heybb · 15/04/2020 22:50

@KSI88 Is there such thing as tmi on here?? 😂
I’d like to say I’ll wait to see if af arrives but I’m quite impatient so I’m trying to resist till 22nd. Do you think you’ll be able to hold off till 10dpo?

KSI88 · 15/04/2020 22:58

@heybb Most definitely not but I'll try my best to hold off until then. This wait is awful! I have zero patience and I'm running out of things to do in the house and the garden!

Hello all

Hubby and I are also TTC #1 and we have been for almost a year, but more so in recent months. I’m currently 4 DPO and are showing signs of moodiness, tender boobs and last night I had the craziest dream. I’m hoping I’m not reading too much into it and pray that we are successful. I’m planning to do a test 26th as it’s hubby’s bday 27th so I’m hoping I can surprise him Smile.

Wishing you all the luck in the world, fellow triers! Bit of an odd time to TTC but like others have said, got to go on as normal and live in the moment. Just hope it all blows over soon.
