TWW - anyone want to join?

Hey guys

Is anyone else in the TWW and want to join me in desperately trying not to test 😂

Currently 4DPO in cycle 9 of TTC, and frantically googling when is the absolute earliest I can test, driving myself insane!

How's everyone else finding the TWW at the min? Lockdown is making it harder cause I'm home all day with all my tests 🤦‍♀️

Baby dust to all x

I can see it @mrsgtobe97!

Sounds promising @Sdoo4. Get a test!

2020mission · 14/07/2020 12:06

@mrsgtobe97 🙌 excellent result! That's also interesting about holding the test in the urine longer than 5 seconds. I'll need to be strict with that I don't really count and just hold it while watching the ink run 😬

2020mission · 14/07/2020 12:52

Update from me... getting some cramps now and wiped bright red blood when I just went to the loo so pretty sure that's AF here. On to cycle 6 then

helia · 14/07/2020 12:56

Sending lots of Wine and Flowers @2020mission. Thinking of you xxx

Bims2019 · 14/07/2020 12:56

@mrsgtobe97 that looks positive to me! Agree it's very interesting about how long you hold the test in for, I have definitely done longer than that too 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Jurassiclover sorry about the BFN but it's really good you may have a diagnosis, hope you're okay!

I've not tested again, AF is due tomorrow so if she doesn't arrive I'll think about doing another one then. Like a lot of you I'm scared to test, even though I know it's probably going to be another BFN! I don't really have any symptoms at the moment except a bit bloated, so hopes not high atm. Almost just want a new cycle so can crack on with a fresh start!

Bims2019 · 14/07/2020 12:58

@2020mission sorry to hear that lovely, take care of yourself. Tuesday chocolate and wine could definitely be on the cards Flowers

2020mission · 14/07/2020 13:01

Thanks all, glad to have you all here for support. Always tough the day AF comes or when getting a BFN. Best of luck to you all still waiting 🤞 💕

mrsgtobe97 · 14/07/2020 13:20

@2020mission sorry to hear about the AF! :( it's a horrible feeling. But fresh cycle keep positive!! Xx

Sdoo4 · 14/07/2020 15:52

@helia I just went to Sainsburys and looked at tests but didn’t buy any! I’m so worried about being disappointed. I’m going to hold off a few days to see if AF arrives.

Pr24 · 14/07/2020 17:17

@mrsgtobe97 omg definitely a positive!! Congratulations xx

ruroo · 14/07/2020 17:30

Hello everyone! @mrsgtobe97 good point about the 5 seconds, I’ve definitely held it for longer hahah!
I’m at 9dpo and the urge to test is killing me!

mrsgtobe97 · 14/07/2020 17:50

[quote Pr24]@mrsgtobe97 omg definitely a positive!! Congratulations xx[/quote]
Thank you!! So hoping it darkens more over next few days xx

mrsgtobe97 · 14/07/2020 17:51

@ruroo

Hello everyone! *@mrsgtobe97* good point about the 5 seconds, I’ve definitely held it for longer hahah! I’m at 9dpo and the urge to test is killing me!
I didn't even realise it would affect anything, I thought more urine = darker results 😂😂 gonna keep testing over next few days and take a Digi Saturday maybe xx
Jurassiclover · 14/07/2020 18:55

@2020mission sorry to hear of the arrival of AF, always tough to deal with when it arrives. Hopefully next cycle will be the one 🤞

@Bims2019 thank you, I feel okay, I feel better knowing I'm starting to get somewhere with a diagnosis/treatment possibly! I'm feeling the same though just want this cycle to end so that I can get onto the next one.

AF was due today and noooo sign of her which is annoying

helia · 14/07/2020 19:08

That must be frustrating @Jurassiclover! Hopefully it turns up soon. Mine is due on Thursday.

Katiekat12 · 14/07/2020 20:26

Just been catching up and reading through the thread I’ve not been on in a while.. nobody’s out until AF shows so fingers crossed still !! @mrsgtobe97 that’s definitely a line there !! Congratulations !! I’m 4/5 dpo and feel quite chilled about it this month but there’s still time to get the urges to poas ! Haha the only ‘symptom’ I’ve had this month is that I’ve still got ovulation pains on my right side Confused not excruciating but they are noticeably there

Jurassiclover · 14/07/2020 21:09

@helia yeah I'm hoping it hurries up so I can get onto the next cycle. Crazy to think next cycle will be cycle 10 since my MC and cycle 13 altogether since I started trying, crazzzzyyyy

I'm currently on day 60 which is my longest cycle so far 🤦‍♀️

@Katiekat12 ah it's good you're feeling pretty chilled! When are you planning on testing? Sorry if I've already asked this, lost track of who's where and who's testing when hahahah

Caved in and having a koppaberg tonight since I had a BFN today

OP posts:
Katiekat12 · 14/07/2020 21:41

Well I’m only 4/5 dpo I’m not due af until the 25th so reeallyy want to hold out if I can
The one kopperberg won’t hurt... enjoy x

Pr24 · 15/07/2020 07:37

Morning ladies! I've got cramps this morning that are definitely af as I'm due tomorrow. Hopefully it'll hurry up as I'm due to ovulate again at the end of the month. Hope you're all doing okay x

helia · 15/07/2020 07:45

I got a BFP this morning... Absolutely stunned!

Jurassiclover · 15/07/2020 08:12

@Katiekat12 oooh you'll have to keep us updated! That's not too far away so hopefully it goes by quickly haha! Yeah I just stuck to the one, was feeling a bit poop and needed a pick me up x

@Pr24 hopefully it's over with quick for you so you can get back to TTC! I've still not got any signs of AF even though I'm now a day late, I've got creamy CM and a headache and feel sick but I don't want to bother testing after yesterday's BFN x

@helia omgggggg, congratulations! I'm so happy for you!

OP posts:
Pr24 · 15/07/2020 08:18

@helia omg congratulations!! That's amazing news, cheered me right up! Good luck xx

@Jurassiclover thank you! Are you usually late? It might be worth testing in a few days if af still doesn't arrive for you

Does anyone have any secret tips for me ttc?? We DTD regular during the fertile window, I also use ovulation tests to know when's best to try

Sdoo4 · 15/07/2020 08:21

@helia congratulations!!! Great news!

Still no AF for me this morning.

mrsgtobe97 · 15/07/2020 08:25

@helia

I got a BFP this morning... Absolutely stunned!
Ahhh congratulations!!!! Let's see!!! I love looking at positive tests hahaha
