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 ✨🤰🤗❤

Hi @DontFadeAway , yes we do! Similar ago too, I'm 26 in November ☺️

I wanted to test everyday when I first started trying 😂 trying so hard to hold off now!! Question is, can I wait until 12DPO 🤐

Humpty11 · 31/08/2020 21:34

Hey! It’s so nice to find a thread with others at around the same point of the cycle as me! I’m 8dpo and have already POAS twice 🤦🏼‍♀️(Obviously BFN). We’re TTC number two but I’m feeling very normal so far this month but we’ll soon see what happens!
Sorry to hear about the year that you’ve had @ChasingRainbow, everything crossed that this month is the lucky one!

DontFadeAway · 31/08/2020 21:34

@ChasingRainbow trying not to symptom spot is so hard!! I don't normally get many PMS symptoms other than headaches, so the hot flushes, nausea and back pain are all a bit odd but I'm sure my brain is tricking me!

I'm almost scared to test for fear of a BFN. I'm going to try and hold out until the weekend as I normally get spotting for a few days before AF arrives, whether I get that this month or not may be a good indicator!!

Have you had any other symptoms? Dizziness is horrible!!xx

MarilynMonroe86 · 31/08/2020 21:35

Hello everyone! I’m new on here, age 34 and trying to conceive #2, on cycle one of trying. I think I’m 11dpo. Had some spotting yesterday and today which is hopefully not AF but I guess I will have to wait and see. Good luck everyone!

DontFadeAway · 31/08/2020 21:38

@Bellaashley oh we are so similar!! That's crazy - I don't blame you with the urge to test, but I'm also nervous to! Sorry for your previous loss, how long have you been trying for? 🌈 this is my first month TTC so all a bit new!xx

ChasingRainbow · 31/08/2020 22:01

Hi to everyone thats joined, you are all most welcome! So far we have a great crew going here, fantastic! Xx

@DontFadeAway thanks lovely 😘

My first pregnancy happened totally by chance & since the loss, we just knew it was the right time for us to actively try. This is our 2nd month TTC 💓

Excited to be part of this thread 🌟 X

LT103 · 01/09/2020 08:08

How is everyone? Anyone testing today?
I’m 9dpo. Last 3 days temp dropped almost to cover line but it’s right back up today so decided to test. Of course at 9dpo it was negative 😂. No spotting yet which is a record for me this far into luteal phase. Will hold off for Thursday maybe and test then.

Mild cramps and absolutely exhausted to stage I fell asleep mid conversatio with oh last night apparently! Other than that no real symptoms

MarilynMonroe86 · 01/09/2020 08:35

I’m out for this month! Had spotting the past two days which I was hoping might be implantation bleeding but it’s definitely very heavy AF this morning Sad

KeishaV · 01/09/2020 08:35

Hey everyone, I’ll join too if that’s ok 😊 I’m 9DPO today but have zero symptoms other than a small amount of spotting on 7 & 8 DPO. My temps have dipped and I’m really hoping it’s implantation and that they got back up tomorrow 🤞

Hi all, I'd like to join this lovey group if I may?

DH and I are TTC baby #2. Our first was a happy surprise on our first month of not using contraception, so I'm new to this business of the 2WW!

I'm currently 12dpo, AF due on Thursday (3rd). I've had extremely sore and heavy boobs for the last week (usual to some degree when due on - feels worse than normal but very possible I'm imagining it!).

Happy to provide cheers and solidarity to all as we work through this! xx

LittleLL · 01/09/2020 08:45

Really sorry to read this @MarilynMonroe86. Sending you a million good vibes for the next cycle xxx

Rumples · 01/09/2020 09:02

I'll join too please Smile

8dpo today. Ovulated late this month at CD20 so AF would normally be due tomorrow but hoping she doesn't arrive. If she's still not showing by Thurs I will test at 10dpo.

Had a temp dip this morning but will see if it picks back up tomorrow!

Fingers crossed for everyone 🤞

ChasingRainbow · 01/09/2020 10:01

Greetings & welcome @KeishaV , @LittleLL & @Rumples! Lovely to see our little group growing. Hopefully this is a lucky sticky baby group!!

@MarilynMonroe86 are you sure this is the witch on her way? Dont give up hope yet. I had this happen once and it turned out to be a BFP...so the old story of you sre not being out until the witch herself shows herself is actually true! Hugs to you all the same x

@LT103 now this sounds very promising indeed!

Its actually hilarious that the more unpleasant symptoms we have the better it is when TTC!! Ive woken up for the first morning not feeling really anything at all now. Other than waking up at 04.30hrs and unable to go back to sleep - this is definately not like me at all!
Resisted the urge again this morn to test .
Really want to hold out to Fri when 12DPO.

How's everyone else doing? Anyone test?

MarilynMonroe86 · 01/09/2020 10:05

Thanks @LittleLL  fingers crossed for next month

@ChasingRainbow I was hoping it was just spotting but unfortunately it looks like full on AF, very heavy Sad always next month I suppose!

ChasingRainbow · 01/09/2020 10:14

@MarilynMonroe86 Awe Im sorry for you. Fingers crossed for next month xxxx

Hi ladies, I'll join if that's ok please.
Im 35, got 2 children already, 14 & 10. Been TTC for just over a year now. But this morning I'm a little confused.
I had tingy CM yesterday morning & thought AF was coming early but it has turned into nothing.
Without sounding gross it's not coming out on my knickers, it's inside, so when I wipe i put the toilet roll up there🙈 it's thick & it definitely has a brown tinge to it, but it's not spotting if that makes sense.
I really thought AF was coming early yesterday like she did last month. AF is due on Fri.
I had a weird stabbing pain all day on & off yesterday on my left side & my boobs started to throb by the afternoon.
My RHR has also gone up abit again today.
I'm 8/9DPO today. But I've woken up with my usual pre AF spot this morning so my body is definitely giving me mixed signals 😣 but now I'm hoping that maybe it might of been some sort of implantation happening 🤞🏻 I know it only takes the once but we hardly had sex this time in my fertile window🙈 we only DTD twice on the Sunday morning & evening which is the day I got my peak on the CB.
I can see there are a lot of us at the same DPO! Good luck everyone 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🥰

DontFadeAway · 01/09/2020 10:50

Morning lovely ladies! 😁

Hope you're all okay this morning! 9DPO now - I had a pretty rough night, hot flushes and nausea woke me up which is really unusual! However I'm trying not to read into it as it's probably my mind playing tricks on me. Still trying not to test until the weekend 😩😬

Welcome to all the lovely new ladies who have joined us, hoping this is a sticky baby thread - sending you all lots of love, luck and baby dust! ✨

Jadeb1995 · 01/09/2020 11:58

Morning ladies, I'm 6 DPO today and had cramps all morning from about 5am when I woke up randomly haha.

Do you think it's too early to be a sign?

I honestly keep thinking it's AF but just on and off cramps with no AF.

NoCallerID · 01/09/2020 12:27

Can I join please? (Since I'm taking the relaxed approach this month haha)

3dpo, three consecutive CPs after a TFMR in February.

Not temping this cycle but used OPKs and cm to estimate O.
Not trying to test early but who am I kidding.... 🙈

@Jadeb1995 could be. I get a lot of cramping very early and also wake up (wide awake) at the most random times....

Bellaashley · 01/09/2020 12:28

Hi everyone ☺️

Lovely to see so many of us in the same boat!! I'm trying to hold off testing until 12DPO which will be Friday but my FRER's arrive tomorrow so I may be tempted on Thursday 😆

Definitely something going on down there (light cramping) but I wonder if it's just preparation for AF which will be due this weekend 😫

@ChasingRainbow Wow that's early! This happened to me in my first pregnancy; I can usually sleep like a log but I was basically a night owl during my early weeks! Could never get back to sleep.. I hope this is a sign for you 🤞

@Jadeb1995 I didn't have a great night either but I wonder if it's my mind over thinking everything!!

Off to work now so I'll catch up tomorrow 🌟

Bellaashley · 01/09/2020 12:30

@NoCallerID I'm so sorry to hear about your experience with TFMR. I also went through this, this year and it is just awful 💔 Here's hoping this is our month 💓

Jessicatayla · 01/09/2020 12:44

Hi girls 🥰 I'm currently 12 dpo (I think) and according to my clue app AF is due tomorrow, I hate the waiting 😭 I have no tests in the house to tempt myself because I actually become obsessed 😂
Tomorrow it will be 2 weeks since the months 1st attempted deed and with my first I took a test 2 weeks after and on the 1st day of my missed period and it was BFN but 4 days later it was BFP.
It's also my 1st borns 2nd birthday on saturday so I'm hoping for a nice suprise 😂 last week I had some cramps and last night I had some sharp shooting pains in my womb area but idk if I'm reading too much into stuff.
Baby dust for everyone 🌠🌠🌠
