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 ✨🤰🤗❤

@DontFadeAway Thank you 💓

When are you planning to test again? I really hope there's BFPs all around!! 🤞

DontFadeAway · 03/09/2020 17:18

@Bellaashley have you told your partner yet? I bet you're full of all sorts of emotions right now!

Thinking I might test in the morning as I've still not got any signs of spotting or AF! ✨✨

Jadeb1995 · 03/09/2020 17:39

@Bellaashley aww I can imagine but I'm wishing you a healthy pregnancy.

Do you have links to the vitamins you've been taking?

I've been taking the ones of Luisa Zissmans blog but they're quite expensive

Jessicatayla · 03/09/2020 17:48

Congrats @Bellaashley 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I'm gonna try not to test tomorrow and if AF still isnt here by Saturday will do one Saturday morning 😭

ChasingRainbow · 03/09/2020 18:14

So girls....
Who's with me for poas tomorrow morn?
Actually feel really nervous for some reason. Not expecting much as seem to have lost any of the symptoms I did have sigh

Huge congrats again to those who got their BFPs yesterday & today. Heres hoping we get many more on this thread, after that promising start! ❤

Baby dust & positive vibes to all ✨🙌

How many DPO will you be tomorrow @ChasingRainbow ?

hopefully2021 · 03/09/2020 19:18

@ChasingRainbow good luck! I'll be testing tomorrow, not expecting good news as I tested this afternoon and didn't even get a faint line - AF due tomorrow/Sat so doesnt look good xxx

DontFadeAway · 03/09/2020 19:39

@ChasingRainbow good luck! I think I'm going to POAS tomorrow morning if still no signs of spotting/AF by then. 🤞🏼

Humpty11 · 03/09/2020 19:39

@LittleLL massive congratulations 😍 how exciting!!
@Bellaashley 😬😍 seeing the words definitely makes it more real!!
@ChasingRainbow I can’t remember how to work it out 🤦🏼‍♀️. I had a peak ovulation reading on 24/07, so does that make me 10dpo today?
How many are you now? I salute your self control for managing to hold off until now! I’ve POAS about 4 times since ovulation 🤣 x

Humpty11 · 03/09/2020 19:43

@ChasingRainbow don’t feel disheartened about loss of symptoms. The month I conceived my son I had zero symptoms prior to testing. The sore boobs didn’t hit until about 5 weeks and the sickness and tiredness happened at 6 weeks.
Everything crossed for tomorrow for you! X

Rumples · 03/09/2020 20:12

Good luck for tomorrow @ChasingRainbow 🤞

I'm going to see what my temp says before testing. If it drops more then I won't waste one. But if it rises and AF still isn't here I will test as I'll be 11dpo.

ChasingRainbow · 03/09/2020 20:37

Hey @Jadeb1995 il be 12DPO tomorrow

@hopefully2021 Dont give up hope. Did you test on fmu or was that during the day? Best of luck lovely x

@DontFadeAway I think I rem you saying you are also 12DPO tomorrow? Good luck back at you! 😘

@Humpty11 yep guess that makes you 10DPO - unless you ovulated later in which csse you would be less. Thanks so much lovely, thats definately reassuring to hear you had no symptoms with your DC. I did a test at 10dpo (Wed) and, I dunno, most likely its a BFN but OH & I could see "something". Can only hope this is a good month for all of us and that little something turns out to be a fabulous big something tomorrow or Sat/Sun! Or at least know one way or another, in which case I think a big glass of wine is allowed! The waiting is awful 🙈

Who knew peeing on sticks would become a social event lol!! In fairness, having you lot to banter with helps ALOT! ❤ x x

Good luck for tomorrow @ChasingRainbow xx

ChasingRainbow · 03/09/2020 20:42

Hope this is a great month for you @Rumples.
Very envious of your self restraint re tests.
Ah, some day I will get sense! 🤷‍♀️🤗

A huge congratulations to all you ladies who have received you BFP @Bellaashley I know it may seem scary this time around but manifest that healthy beautiful baby in your arms!
I'm not completely sure of my exact ovulation date as strangely I went between having low, high and peak days for around one week! But did have some ovulation pain on Sunday so I'm assuming I'm 5DPO. It's probably far to early to have any form of symptom but I do know I had an extremely restless night last night with some vivid dreams in between.
Can't wait to see the results of everyone here.

Bellaashley · 03/09/2020 21:41

@DontFadeAway Yes, told my partner this afternoon 😍 he's so pleased bless him. Going to keep it quiet now until I'm a bit further along but it's been lovely sharing the news on here!

@Jadeb1995 Funny you say that because that's exactly the ones I'm taking from her "maybe baby" blog! I agree they are quite pricey though.

@ashlee89 I will definitely do that, thank you 🤰

Thank you all for your kind words 💓 Wishing you all the best of luck for tomorrow morning 🤞🤞

Jadeb1995 · 03/09/2020 21:50

@Bellaashley thanks!! I best keep taking them then now you've got your BFP!!

mouldygrapes · 03/09/2020 22:18

Congratulations @Bellaashley! Fab news. Sure it must be bittersweet given your previous loss, everything crossed that this little bean is healthy and sticky.

I swear time is CRAWLING at the moment. I’m still way to early to test and actually I want to try to hold out till I’m due on which is next weekend (on what would have been our wedding day!)

Imog · 04/09/2020 00:46

Hi ladies! Hope it's not too late to join! I'm 8dpo and have been BBT and taking opk this month! Congrats Bella! What a blessing.

It's going to take everything in my willpower to not test yet. The tww is long 😭

Has anyone had Diarria this month? I've been getting nausea and Diarriah but not sure if it's just af coming. I'm due on in 6 days so could be that.

Wishing you all baby dust xx

Luckylola12 · 04/09/2020 06:50

So af is here, officially 2 years trying now, looks like its never going to happen, something must be wrong

ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 07:13

😭 😢
Im not far behind you @Luckylola12. Stark BFN this morning. Not sure what the earlier line/ shadow was on both tests on Wed but nothing there now at 12DPO. Just accepting AF is on her way and trying to look towards Sept as our lucky month.
Im having that glass of wine tonight with OH and maybe a wee cry.

Hope you are okay. Two years is a long time lovely. Would you go to your doc for some checks? Even start with just bloods. Sending you every best wish for your BFP next month or whenever you feel up to trying next xxxx

Hi & welcome @Imog
I did diarrhoea (sorry, tmi!) but as per the above, clearly unrelated. Best of luck on your ttc journey 💞

Wishing all you lovely ladies testing today some wonderful news! Best of luck to you all for your BFPs. Hoping we have many more on this thread x x x x 🤞🤞💫

@chasingrainbow i cant stop crying 😭😭 ive had bloods done, got results yesterday and everything is normal, dh has to go for another sperm test, last results said slightly below average but not by much so i dont know

Rumples · 04/09/2020 07:42

@ChasingRainbow sorry to hear about your bfn. 100% enjoy a glass of wine tonight.

I didn't test as I can feel AF brewing so I'll probably be joining you for the next cycle.

hopefully2021 · 04/09/2020 07:44

@ChasingRainbow exactly the same for me today and I've accepted that AF will probably be here tomorrow! Hopefully next month - I would love to announce a pregnancy over christmas with a lovely scan picture but I guess what will be will be & it's something I have no control over Sad
I've got family round tomorrow so will definately be having a few glasses of wine and plenty of cake/chocolate to cheer me up!
How long have you been trying?xxx
