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

Thanks @acaciabluebell! I did yet another test yesterday (sucker for punishment) and got a bfn. Still no AF though! Boobs feel a bit sore now but no other symptoms really. Funny that we were all in sync! 😂

@scrambledeggy the uncertainty is really hard isn't it, I don't have any experience of that but perhaps test again in a couple of days? You're not out until AF shows Smile when is AF due? Keeping fingers crossed for you!

@Gab101 not sure exactly, but I think some people find out days after their AF is due! Interesting to think about, you're right we do always focus on the shortest!

@Jurassiclover hope you're doing okay, have you resisted testing again?

scrambledeggy · 19/07/2020 12:35

Thank you @Bims2019, that means a lot. Based on my recent cycles I'd guess that I'm about 2 days late. I feel as far as possible from AF (energetic, clear skin, sensitive nipples...aroused!) but I guess time will tell. I wish I could know sooner :( Fingers crossed for you too.

@Jurassiclover @acaciabluebell I hope you get the results you want, or at least some more certainty!

Jurassiclover · 20/07/2020 09:20

@scrambledeggy Sorry about your BFN, i would say give it around 2-3 days and try testing again just to be sure. Hopefully everything becomes more certain for you soon, i'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!x

@Bims2019 I tested on saturday, BFN but still no AF! I'm now 20dpo so noooo idea what's happening. I don't feel like AF if coming at all except for now having sore boobs, they also feel a lot firmer all of a sudden haha, i think i'll try testing tomorrow again just to see as then i will be a full week late

@scrambledeggy I know what you mean, usually I can tell when AF is on the way but it feels different this month! We DTD yesterday which tends to bring it on but still nothing. We have to be patient I suppose, but it is so hard. How are you doing today?

@Jurassiclover argh I wish we knew what was going on! My boobs are the same, and I had a tinge of brown in my cm yesterday. Of course I'm now wondering if that could be implantation bleeding, but who knows. I'll test again tomorrow when I'm 5 days late if still nothing, this is the longest cycle I've had for a while.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

scrambledeggy · 20/07/2020 11:53

@Bims2019 HAHA same re: DTD. I feel so...excitable! Which puts me in a good mood, so to be honest I'm doing okay. I'm also busy with work, which helps.

And I've just had a chat with a really lovely lady at my GP who says someone will call me back this afternoon, so either way I can hopefully get a bit of clarity Smile

Nannon145 · 20/07/2020 12:01

Hey! Hope it’s okay that I join. It’s ovulation day for me today 😁 so start my 2WW tomorrow. Always nice to have people to chat with when I’m going through it I think

how is everyone else getting on? How many DPO are you all?

scrambledeggy · 20/07/2020 16:29

GP says to wait two weeks before testing again. Roll on the 1st of August I guess? Very much hoping for no AF, though I guess it's likely she'll show Sad

@Nannon145 I THINK I'm 17dpo, but having a lot of confusion as you can probably tell Grin I hope things go more smoothly for you!

Jurassiclover · 21/07/2020 10:40

@Nannon145 welcome! I'm currently 21 dpo with noooo sign of AF so a tad confused hahah

@scrambledeggy that's so long to wait! Bless you! I'll keep my fingers crossed for no AF for you!

I'm now 21DPO, no sign of AF and BFN on tests so i have no idea what is going on really! This is the longest cycle i've ever had

@Jurassiclover @scrambledeggy sounds like you’re both going through a confusing time, I’m sorry about that. Been there and done that, it’s not a very nice time. Just got to try and stay positive 🥰

I’m really hoping this month is my month after a miscarriage in April so fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Gab101 · 21/07/2020 11:50

What do we think ladies?! FAINT but I see it! ♥️🤞🏽

Nannon145 · 21/07/2020 12:58

@Gab101 yes, I think I see something!!!! Exciting. How many DPO are you?

Jurassiclover · 21/07/2020 13:17

@Nannon145 Yeah i'm just trying to stay positive! I'm starting to think maybe i ovulated later but then i just don't know!

@Gab101 i can see a very faint hint of something! Test again in a few days and hopefully it gets darker!!

Ok ladies so 11dpo today worked nights last night just thought I’d test my first wee and I think I’ve got a BFP !!

Katiekat12 · 21/07/2020 16:07

What do you think ?

TWW - anyone want to join?
Gab101 · 21/07/2020 17:39

I tested again on a first response and got a line, going to try a digital next ♥️♥️ I am 10DPO so super early but have been testing since about 3 dpo if I'm honest 😂 My symptoms have been - bloated, gassy/indigestion which is very unlike me, sore books and strange looking nipples and fatigue if anyone wants to know! Xx

Gab101 · 21/07/2020 18:48

@Katiekat12 that's a definite BFP! ♥️ congrats!!

Katiekat12 · 22/07/2020 06:32

Thank you @Gab101 I’m still in disbelief I think, tested again this morning and still positive I think I’ll believe it more when I’ve missed my period on the 24th

Bims2019 · 22/07/2020 21:01

Congrats @Gab101 and @Katiekat12! And welcome @Nannon145 😊

I think AF is finally on the way, bit gutted but also a bit relieved to be able to move on to a new cycle. Hope everyone else is doing okay and having a good week!

Katiekat12 · 23/07/2020 08:15

Thankyou @Bims2019 I’ve done another on a frer this morning just to make sure I still can’t believe it.. onto the next one for you this one will be lucky for you.. positive vibes xx

Gab101 · 23/07/2020 09:43

Anyone know much about blood hcg levels? I got a blood test, I'm 10/11 dpo and my level was only 8. To be pregnant it must range between 5-50 but everything I read people have more than 8! Let me know if you know anything xx

aureliacecilia · 23/07/2020 09:49

Congratulations!

Jurassiclover · 23/07/2020 13:14

@Katiekat12 omg definite positive for you! Congrats!

@Gab101 I've heard that HCG can vary a lot between people so I'd say as long as they're within the usual range don't worry about it!

I'm now 23DPO and still no sign of AF I'm on cycle day 68.... it's stressing me out now I just want AF out the way so I can crack back on 😭

scrambledeggy · 23/07/2020 18:37

@Jurassiclover I feel you, think I'm day 45 now and my boobs hurt reaaaally bad, wish I knew what was going on!

Gab101 · 24/07/2020 12:35

I'm so disheartened... just took a FR digital and it said not pregnant. AF due tomorrow - had just drank tons of water but still.... so sad to see, us this normal?? :(

Gab101 · 24/07/2020 12:36

Have had loads of positive normals tests
