Anyone starting their TWW now?

Hi Ladies,

Just wondering if anyone is starting their TWW now? I got my peak on OPK yesterday around 2pm, another peak this morning but not as dark as yesterday! Think I have ovulated today (had some weird pains and cramps!) so now it’s a waiting game!

AF should be due on 19th/20th June but this is my first proper cycle since a MC back in April so not 100% sure if I’m going back to 28 days.

Anyway some TWW buddies would be lovely to keep ourselves sane Grin

@Jaym87 sorry 😣 all these waiting games are awful x

JellyKulie · 21/06/2020 14:19

Hope we all get our BFP’s soon! 💕

Thoughts anyone?

@stabal I feel like I can see a faint positive there. Hope so xx

JellyKulie · 21/06/2020 15:38

@Stabal I can definitely see a faint! 🥰🤞

Stabal · 21/06/2020 15:40

I feel a lot saner that it can be picked up on camera today. I couldn't get yesterday's to show 😂 will update in a few days.. 🤞

Hopesandrainbows · 21/06/2020 17:01

@Stabal that's so exciting!!

I literally don't have any symptoms at the moment but it's only 7dpo so the little bambino wouldn't have implanted just yet anyway. Due to test on Wednesday morning! I think the next two days are going to go really slowly! I'm praying this is the month. I don't know if I can take much more of this emotional rollercoaster.

Stabal · 21/06/2020 17:47

@Hopesandrainbows aww I really hope this is it for you too! Please keep us updated! I've had pains low down and had spotting for half a day 6 days ago. Stabbing boob pain every so often the past couple of days but other than that not much else. With my miscarriage I had every single symptom going but still didn't realise I was pregnant until I tested and I was 6 weeks, whoops lol

Hopesandrainbows · 21/06/2020 18:50

@Stabal aww I hope so too! I had stabbing boob pain last month but then it was a negative. This month my boobs have been tender on the outsides but that's pretty normal anyway. Felt a little nauseous on and off today and yesterday (almost like when I get travel sick) but nothing other than that. I'm quite pleased I don't have Aunt Flo style cramps as usually I have them by today. I just feel like we literally did everything we could and had sex at the right times so I know I'll be so sad if it's another negative. I just want to be pregnant before what would have been my due date in august.

Stabal · 21/06/2020 18:59

@Hopesandrainbows I know how you feel about the due date. Mine would have been early December so I'm really hoping. 🤞 for us all!

yoomoo · 21/06/2020 19:07

@Stabal I can definitely see a line! Give it a couple of days and you should have a lovely line! X

A few days of very faint positives on ICs and a clear blue for me only just visible to eye and camera lense (to me and my very level headed dp) but today a very faint ic bfp and a bfn on a FRER so remains inconclusive. Still hot, headaches, nausea, sore boobs etc.

Period due weds and had a few more normal cramps at lunch today so going to assume I am out this month! What a hope and disappointment rollercoaster this is! Hmm

Best of luck to those waiting for AF still, fingers crossed! Smile

JellyKulie · 22/06/2020 14:29

Oh how frustrating for you!

Jaym78 · 22/06/2020 14:29

Aww.... Keep hope. I'm the same negative on FRER. 2 faint positive on cheaps. Due on today but not come on

I keep reading some people don't get positives till after thier period is due. I don't know what to think. My symptoms are up and down too.

Just going to have to see what happens? Will you test again or just wait? X

Hopesandrainbows · 22/06/2020 16:04

I'm feeling really low today 😞 can't help but feel sad that it could be another negative again Wednesday morning. It's such an emotional rollercoaster. Still no cramps which is odd as I usually have cramps by now which I guess is a good thing. Did have very mild ones last night but nothing horrendous like I know they have been before. Feel quite bloated in pelvic/uterus area. But no sore boobs or anything but I'm still hoping it would be too soon for that. Ahh! Haha

Jaym78 · 22/06/2020 16:30

Aww it's so hard. I'm sorry to hear your feeling low.

I'm cramping on and off but I don't know whether they are cramps of stretching pains.

I'm feeling so sick it's unreal. Boob pain is slightly there but settled a bit.

I just want to know either way now. Did u say u had a faint pos?? X

Hopesandrainbows · 22/06/2020 18:22

Aww fingers crossed for you!

It's weird I have no cramps or anything but I'm just hoping the lack of PMS is a good sign as I usually am in agony a week before I'm due. I just want to feel something... sore nipples, a pulling feeling... anything!!! Haha

No I haven't tested yet ... I am testing Wednesday morning and I'm absolutely dreading it! It's starting to take its toll on my husband now and our relationship. It makes me so teary 😞. Thing is I know I talk about it all the bloody time but that's just how I cope but he is the opposite and talking about it all makes him stressed. It's so tricky isn't it! Getting a positive on Wednesday would mean the absolute world to me and be a huge weight off our shoulders!

I wish you all the best of luck! Xxx

Mistymonday · 22/06/2020 23:07

@Jaym78 I may do an ic as still a bit addicted to poas - but won’t use a frer unless I am late. Just a waiting game now but not hopeful. Cramping in my normal pms way now intermittently. Hope yours comes to something though! Fingers crossed.

@Hopesandrainbows it is such a rollercoaster! At least we all can share it here. My dp is Interested but much less emotional about it but then it’s not his body. good luck for weds, fingers crossed.

Jaym78 · 23/06/2020 08:18

Morning all,

How are you feeling?? Day 29 for me normally a 28 day cycle. No AF but no BFP either. Boobs have settled down but I feel so sick.

As it stands im going to consider myself out at the minute

Hppe your all OK xxx

Jaym78 · 23/06/2020 16:51

Day 29... I think I'm out... Very slight brown discharge in last half hour :-(. Its not red but i feel like am out. X

JellyKulie · 23/06/2020 18:43

@Jaym78 Could it be implantation bleeding? I know it’s frustrating. I was 15 days late last cycle with a tiny bit of spotting towards the end and I was so upset when AF arrived. But they do say you’re not out until she arrives in a ‘full flow.’ 🤞

Jaym78 · 23/06/2020 18:47

Hi @jellykulie,

I'm not sure to be honest I've had some more but it's still brown at the moment.

Can u ask a quick question if you can help at all? So as I've mentioned the blood is brown. If AF goes into full swing would day one only be once the blood is red? So technically today would not be day 1? X

Thank you xxx

JellyKulie · 23/06/2020 18:51

@Jaym78 - I read that day 1 is the first day you’re in full flow so spotting, brown/pink discharge wouldn’t count. I use the OVIA app and that also doesn’t count spotting as Day1 when you enter “spotting” so I would say this cycle isn’t over just yet xxx

Jaym78 · 23/06/2020 18:57

Thank you, I will download that app now. I don't have any apps or anything yet.
Im not sure how to use opks either, this is my first try after my miscarriage and I just kind of estimated ovulation off date cycle length and CM. So maybe give them a go x

Hopesandrainbows · 23/06/2020 20:58

I use the Ovia app too and clear blue advanced digital OPKs (flashing smiley for high fertility days and static smiley for peak) works well but it did take a while for my cycles to return to normal after miscarriage. I was ovulating later than usual for 4 months but have had 2 normal months since then. I was taking BBT every morning but it was just an added stress so stopped that this month. I'm testing in the morning (well whatever time I need a wee so could be 4am...) I am dreading it! The thought of seeing that one lonely line makes me so sad and I can't help but think I should be 7 months pregnant now with my first, but life can be cruel
