TWW - anyone want to join?

[Jurassiclover]

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

@CherryBx welcome! Sorry to hear of your MMC in my experience I've had cramps most months and ended up with a BFN but have read other threads where people have gone on to get their BFP after cramping, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Give it a day or two and test again and keep us updated!

@Jurrasiclover thank you for the warm welcome, my cramps seem to have gone now which is reassuring. I will test again during the week and update with my results. Its lovely to be able to come somewhere and talk about these things. Xx

@CherryBx it is isn't it, I always think DP gets sick of me talking about symptoms and testing etc so it's nice to talk to people on here hahaha makes me feel less crazy xx

@Jurassiclover my DP says he doesn't understand most of what I talk about when it comes to all of this so it's nice to talk to people that do understand haha. I had a read through the thread and saw your faint bfp fingers crossed for you and wishing you a healthy pregnancy xx

@Jurassiclover will update you all once I get my FRER's tomorrow morning 😃 I've been noticing loads of white creamy Cm last few days so wondering if it's connected!! Xx

@CherryBx yeah my DP didn't understand most of it at first, he's slowly learning hahah

@mrsgtobe97 oooh definitely sounds like it could be connected! Keeping everything crossed for you tomorrow 🤞

I've been to the toilet a few times this morning (early riser!) and had the tiniest amount of brown blood on the toilet paper one of the times. Not before and not since. I wiped a second time and there was nothing there. Nothing there when I went to the loo again. I don't know what to make of this. I am only CD26 and I've had some 27 day cycles but if this is AF then it's only a 25 day cycle! That's the shortest cycle I've had since I've been tracking my periods (at least a couple of years). Expecting my period will arrive later today now.

Has anyone tested this morning? Hoping for some BFPs!

Used an IC and saw a shadow line but going to get my FRER's from the shop once it opens, oh god I'm nervous!

Morning everyone, hope you all had nice weekends!

@helia it's so frustrating when AF shows up early. Is there any chance it's implantation bleeding?

@mrsgtobe97 🤞 for you with the frer!

I tested with a frer this morning, there is the faintest sliver of a line but not sure if I'm just seeing what I want to see think I'm around 13dpo so it should show up by this point right? There is still a chance as AF isn't due til Wednesday, so I'll test again later in the week. But hopes not high atm!

Anyone else having trouble sleeping at the moment? Ever since lockdown it's been a real struggle for me, this morning I woke up at 3 and just couldn't get back to sleep might have been because I was nervous about testing though...

Hope you all have good days, and good luck to anyone who's testing today!

@helia brown blood usually indicates old blood I think so it may not be AF early! Keep us updated lovely

@mrsgtobe97 keeping my fingers crossed for you today! 🤞

@Bims2019 you're not out til AF shows! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I've also been sleeping terrible recently!

I testing this morning but I couldn't get FRERs and so tested with the first response rapid result today, definitely a squinter there but I'm also not feeling hopeful as I'm 13dpo so would expect it to be stronger but I'm not sure if the rapid result are as sensitive as FRER. I'm tempted to pop out on my lunch break and see if I can get some FRERs. My only thinking is maybe I ovulated later as I don't temp so I'm going off my positive OPK but I might not of ovulated when I think I did or maybe I implanted late but I'm not feeling hopeful

Good luck with the FRER @mrsgtobe97!

I've had a bit more brown spotting but I've put a pad on and nothing on there yet. I didn't have implantation bleeding with my first pregnancy so it would be a new thing for me, if that's what it is. I really am thinking it's just a very early period now. I suppose I'll know more later - either my period will come in properly or it won't! So I'm either CD26 or CD1 today!

Let's see a photo of the squinter @Jurassiclover! I've found Amazon does same day delivery in my area so you could always order from there.

@Jurassiclover thank you, as you say not out yet! Like you I'm wondering if I ovulated or implanted late, urgh it's just the not knowing that's the worst.

Sounds like you're still in with a chance too!🤞 I haven't used the rapid result tests so not sure if they are as good. But if you can get a frer maybe that would be clearer, when is AF due for you? I keep thinking about temping to try and feel a bit more in control and know when I've actually ovulated.

GUYS 😭😭

@helia I'm not even sure it'll pic up on camera, let me get a pic for you guys. Researching it the FRER is waaaay more sensitive than the rapid results one so I'm feeling semi hopeful! Definitely gonna see if I can get same day from Amazon if not I have a boots less than 5 mins from my house so I'll run there on my lunch break from work. Working from home is coming in handy for this 😂 hopefully you'll know either way soon and either AF won't come and it's implantation or AF will arrive and you can be onto your next cycle!

@Bims2019 AF due tomorrow if I did ovulate after my positive OPK. Yeah I'm considering temping next cycle if this isn't my month

@mrsgtobe97 omg I see the line!!! How exciting!!! I think congrats may be in order!

Here's my absolute squinter on the rapid result I took this morning

@Jurassiclover it's 100% pink and there omg, can't believe it I'm shaking! Going to get a clear blue digital now didn't want to jinx it and pick one up same time as the FRER! Omg!!

I seen ur other post about the rapid result, they aren't as sensitive as the early results so if you see a squinters on that you should see something on the early result! I so hope we can go to the pregnancy board together 😭

@Jurassiclover

Here's my absolute squinter on the rapid result I took this morning

I see it!!!

@mrsgtobe97 omg update us when you've taken a digi! How exciting!! I'm hoping we can go over together too would be amazing 🤞

I'm glad you can see the squinter! It's definitely more visible in person! I think I'm gonna run out and get some FRER if I can!

@Jurassiclover digital bfn however might just be too early, will try again tomorrow but deffo a pink line on FRER!

Exciting times! Let's see what happens to these tests after a few more DPO!

I've had a bit more brown blood on toilet tissue and now a tiny bit on my pad.

@helia Same here, was about to test this morning (12dpo) and had brown blood, now it seems AF has arrived 2 days early 😔

@mrsgtobe97 yeah could be too early try again with digital in like 2/3 days!

@helia @acaciabluebell it's so annoying when AF comes early isn't it 😔

It's so strange isn't it, @acaciabluebell! If this is now CD1 instead of CD26 then that's a really short cycle even for me. I've been tracking since Jan 2018 and never had a 25 day cycle. A couple of 26 day ones over the last 2.5 years but never a 25! My periods don't normally start with brown blood either. I really don't want to get my hopes up though that this could be implantation bleeding. I hope it either gets heavier or stops as I've been going crazy for the last few hours. How are you?
