Hi girls,
Im currently in the tww and wondering if anyone is too and wants to share their journey. Im currently 8DPO and am doing my best to NOT poas though its so hard! Im literally an addict...but so far so good. Im determined this time to not test before 12DPO!
Bit about me: im 37, Have been ttc for just over a year now and in that time sadly had a MMC x 2 and more recently an ectopic requiring tube removal. So afraid that I wont be able to concieve on the side of my existing tube but ya gota have hope, right?! Hoping for a rainbow baby on this our fourth attempt.

Symptoms so far:
-Bigger boobs but not sore (yet)

  • loads of rumblings going on low down
  • sleepy after food
  • weight loss ( though im on the large side so no harm there!)
  • odd lower back pain
  • VERY emotional (poor hubbie!)

Would love to chat to ladies in a similar boat to symptom share and have a laugh with in this horrible tww fiasco! Fingers crossed for baby dust for all hoping for their BFP ✨🤰🤗❤

That sounds really positive @Imog fingers crossed for you 🤞🏽

AF is due today, I was feeling really positive about this cycle but my boobs are no longer feeling sore today which is what usually happens the day AF shows so I think I'm out this month 😥

ChasingRainbow · 09/09/2020 10:20

And just like that...AF has finally arrived.
Im so relieved! Really weird to say that, its always awful when she arrives.
Roll on another tww to start the journey all over again! 😳

For anyone whose time is not right now,
Il start another thread for those in the Sept/Oct testing/TWW period.

Wishing all the girls on here who are now confirmed moms to be a very happy & healthy 9/8 months.

And as always, best of luck to the rest of you for some more BFPs 🤗🤗🌈🦋 x x x

@ChasingRainbow I'm sad to hear that this wasn't your month but I'm happy that AF has finally arrived so you can move forward.

See you over on the next thread xxx

ChasingRainbow · 09/09/2020 10:36

I did and I think it's stupidly faint, or not even there 😩😩 xx

mouldygrapes · 09/09/2020 11:14

Sorry it wasn’t your month @ChasingRainbow, but glad you know where you are now and everything crossed for next cycle.

I may well be here with you next month. Having all sorts of weird symptoms, I’m not sure if they’re PMS or I’m driving myself mad imagining things.
Due on either tomorrow or Friday depending on which app I believe.
Not tested since the neg IC at 10dpo and trying not to!!

ChasingRainbow · 09/09/2020 11:21

@mouldygrapes its so hard to resist testing! Especially when pms and early preg symptoms are so similar.
Hold out as long as you can!
I really really hope this is your month lovely. Will fingers crossed you get your BFP

Il be keeping an eye here to see how everyone is getting on. I hope to see some positive news from you! ❤🦋🌈✨

Hi all, how's everyone getting on today? Excited to see more tests!

I'm 10dpo today... Couldn't resist testing and got a BFN 🙈 I felt really unwell the last day or two but now just feel sick with a headache. Not sure if lack of symptoms can count as a symptom or if I'm just hopeful! I usually have AF symptoms in the days leading up to it 😂🤞🏻🤞🏻

ChasingRainbow · 09/09/2020 11:47

Not to worry @RABO
10DPO is still very early days!
Hoping you get some positive news in the coming days!
Keep us posted lovely xx ❤ ✨

Can anyone talk to me about implantation bleeding? What does it look like, how much etc. I had some blood when I went for a wee mid morning. It was only on the tissue and was light pink. I've had a pad on since and haven't had it again. AF not due for another 4 days and I'm usually pretty regular and will have painful cramps and then start immediately after so I don't think this is AF as it's not happened before. I'm 11dpo so think it's around the right time for implantation

Mich2020 · 09/09/2020 18:13

I'm sorry @babblebeee I can't help with implantation bleeding. I've never experienced that before with my previous two pregnancies, but I do hope for you it's a good sign 🤞🏻 when are you testing?x

babblebeee · 09/09/2020 18:22

@Mich2020 I tested yesterday and it was BFN. Going to maybe test tomorrow or Friday I think so fingers crossed

Mich2020 · 09/09/2020 18:39

This was my opk from same urine as hpt 🤞🏻 its a good sign x

Bizawit · 09/09/2020 19:13

@babblebeee sounds like an implantation bleed to me! I had exactly this 5 days before my period was due when I conceived my DD ☺️.

So sorry to hear your AF arrived @ChasingRainbowFlowers but at least it is now here so your next cycle can begin 💓💓 Xx

babblebeee · 09/09/2020 19:18

@Bizawit thanks for replying. Is it not meant to be brown/old blood though? Really hoping it's not AF

Bizawit · 09/09/2020 20:00

I think it can also be pink? As long as it doesn’t start turning red and get heavier (obvs) then I think it sounds like an implantation bleed. Especially as it’s 4 days before your AF and you are usually regular.. fingers crossed for you!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Bizawit · 09/09/2020 20:02

That was for @babblebeee!

ChasingRainbow · 09/09/2020 20:06

Implantation bleeding can be either.
Light pinkish or brown, usually light and only lasting between a couple hours to a day or two. Though every woman is different! I think if you have spotting anywhere between 5-12dpo that is otherwise unusual for you, chances are it is a very good sign. Hope this helps & best of luck

babblebeee · 09/09/2020 20:46

Thanks for the replies. Not going to get my hopes up, but it sounds promising. Good luck to us all for our BFP's soon

babblebeee · 10/09/2020 13:29

Just to update from yesterday when I had a small amount of pinkish blood. I've just had some brown blood, again only when I wipe so it definitely seems like it could be implantation. I've got some cheapie tests, do you think they would pick anything up yet? I'm 12dpo

Imog · 10/09/2020 14:30

@ChasingRainbow sorry to hear af arrived! Hoping next month is your time. As you said it's some kind of relief to know what's going on with your body.

I'm 14dpo af is due today not had any period cramps which is usual for me as I have endometriosis. Temps are still high! Still having the worst headaches which isn't normal for me before af.

@babblebeee
I think it's just when you wipe like a small amount but some women say it varies from light pink to brown sorry thats not much help. I had Mid cycle spotting last month and it was really light pink and just when I wiped for 1 day. I thought it was implantation but then af arrived about 9 days later 😔 xx

InfertileGP · 10/09/2020 14:46

I'm in 2WW... Day 12 after ovulation, AF due on Saturday. I did a test yesterday that was negative, we were staying in a holiday cottage with family so took it home and when I got it out to bin today there was a line. So don't know what to think now... We've been trying for a year and never got a second line. Did another test at lunchtime and nothing obvious on it. They're internet cheapies and neither test was FMU. I'm trying not to get my hopes up 😭

mouldygrapes · 10/09/2020 14:47

Hey cycle twin @Imog! Also 14dpo here.
I didn’t want to test just yet. I had an opk in my bag so did that which is positive (was negative on d10 when I did an IC).
I know a couple of people on here had positive OPKs before AF due and it can mean either it’s on its way, or could be a sign of pregnancy?
Pic attached. I’ve bought a 2 pack of FRERs, will test Saturday if no bleeding before then
