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 OMG!! 😍😍 look at that positive! Congratulations! So happy for you 🤰

DontFadeAway · 04/09/2020 12:23

@Bellaashley thank you so much! ♥️ It doesn't seem real! I've just been into town to get a Clear Blue... my emotions are all over the place!

How're you feeling today? ♥️

Bellaashley · 04/09/2020 12:23

To all the ladies who didn't receive their BFP this morning. Please don't lose hope, stay positive & try for those BFPs next month! 🤞💓 love to you all! X

Bellaashley · 04/09/2020 12:26

@DontFadeAway I was exactly the same when I did mine.. it still feels surreal today!! How exciting we can share our journey together 🙌

Symptom wise, I'm actually ok today! Just very tired & extremely forgetful! 🤯 What about you? (Other than being in a daze of happiness of course!!)

DontFadeAway · 04/09/2020 12:30

@Bellaashley it's so lovely to have someone to share this journey with, especially as it's too early to tell family yet - this platform is so great to be able to talk about it!!

I'm glad you're feeling okay! It's crazy isn't it. I just did the tescos shop and had such a hot flush I was sweating... even though they have air con 😂 also can't stop peeing! ♥️

SeekingCoffee33 · 04/09/2020 16:25

I couldn’t help it. I broke open the First Response. BFN but as I don’t know when my periods due (anywhere in the next sixish days) there’s still a little bit of hope I suppose

Jadeb1995 · 04/09/2020 16:34

@SeekingCoffee33 there's still time for that to change to a BFP.
I've just caved and been and brought some FRER, going to do one in the morning as I'll be 10dpo

SeekingCoffee33 · 04/09/2020 16:42

Good luck @Jadeb1995. Unfortunately I don’t know when I ovulated either

Humpty11 · 04/09/2020 18:33

Massive congratulations @DontFadeAway 😍😍. So many beautiful BFPs 😬🥰.
My AF has arrived 3 days early 🤔 so definitely out for this month!
Looking forward to more BFPs xx

Humpty11 · 04/09/2020 18:34

That was meant to say looking forward to seeing more BFPs on here! 🤦🏼‍♀️

ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 18:38

⭐ Crazy Lady Alert ⭐

Ok... so im definately intent on driving myself mad! Does anyone know if indent lines are common on a frer?
I just retested this eve again because I just feel different...the shadow/ line thingy I saw two days ago... is back. Hubbie saw it too. Id upload a photo only its so so faint I doubt anyone would be able to see it 🙈

At best this is a chemical, I know that.
But as crap as that would be, I would be thrilled to know that my one questionable tube works. Crazy, I know!

Girls if any of you are testing and its a BFN. I would be so grateful if you could look for a phantom ghost line and report back.
Hubbie & I cant be going mad... Euugh so confusing

I can see a line which I think runs down the plastic of the first response? I think it’s on the plastic though @ChasingRainbow

Humpty11 · 04/09/2020 18:45

@ChasingRainbow I think there are lines on the plastic but doesn’t mean that there might not be a line there. Has AF started for you already? Maybe it’s a little something 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Jadeb1995 · 04/09/2020 18:46

@ChasingRainbow I'm testing tomorrow morning so if it's negative I'll upload a pic! Makes me testing worthwhile even if it's negative!

Bellaashley · 04/09/2020 18:55

Wow @ChasingRainbow I so hope it's a second line!!

I used FRER last month and they were stark white on both occasions so I really hope this is good news for you 🤞💓

ER20 · 04/09/2020 19:03

Hey, hope you don’t mind me joining I’m in the TWW.

How soon after implantation bleeding would you test?

Not sure when I ovulated but due my period on the 11th, had what I think might have been implantation bleeding on Tuesday (1st).

Just there when I wiped twice, dark brown colour, nothing since.

Got back ache, tired, headaches, feeling nauseous at time and very white creamy discharge which is unusual for me.

ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 19:14

Thanks to you all for the support!
I just feel so odd.
No AF yet - not due until Sunday but I always spot for 5 days or so before that - I have nothing so far.
Keep having the feeling AF is about to come but nothing at all!
Have lower back aches which have only ever had in pregnancy
Boobs are much bigger.
But thats it for the symptoms. Im not even fatigued anymore.

Does anyone know of/ heard of using opks to detect pregnancy? Dr google tells me its possible though I strongly trust that info! Nonetheless I attach a pic of the opk iv done just now.

Think I need to step away from the pee sticks. Will have to test again on Sunday (14DPO)... also now that means no wine!!! Errrrah! 🙈🙈
Also attached pic of frer from this eve but strongly doubt the miniscule shadow we are looking at will be obvious

@ChasingRainbow Taking photos is so difficult because they never seem as clear as the real thing! But I've been doing some zooming and I'm sure I can see what your seeing 🤞🌟

Fo you think you'll test tomorrow or wait for AF? I really really hope it's good news for you X

GanderousGoose · 04/09/2020 19:38

I have been testing like a crazy woman for days - thought I was 100% out and even this afternoon tests were negative. Just got these! They are fainter irl as I've increased the vibrancy for the picture but... What do you think?!

SEPT 2020 BPF testing/ two week wait Gals 🤞🤞
ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 19:42

Awh thanks for your positivity @Bellaashley! Its exhausting camera work for sure.
Feeling so mithered I think il take a break tomorrow (also used last frer this eve) and il test again on Sun if AF hasnt started.
Talk about an emotional rollercoaster!
stepping away from the pee sticks 🤭🤓😳

ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 19:44

@GanderousGoose no question - those are positives
Could you check off a clear blue digital?
If that test is picking it up, so should a digital.

But certainly looks like congrats are in order! ❤

GanderousGoose · 04/09/2020 19:48

@ChasingRainbow i've got a digi but last month it didn't turn positive until the day after I had a positive IC so going to wait until Sunday when AF due and do it then... Thanks for the reply, really appreciate it. Can't feel excited atm though due to last month's chemical...

GanderousGoose · 04/09/2020 19:50

@ChasingRainbow also I can see a faint line on your frer!

ChasingRainbow · 04/09/2020 19:55

Best of luck @GanderousGoose
Hope this is a sticky one for you x
