I mean I’m hoping AF stays away completely and we get bfps! We had a chemical last month but I’m feeling anxious and slightly more positive this time. So fingers crossed. Who else is in this boat?
Will probably poas at around 11dpo...

Hey! Sorry about your chemical ☹ Af due around the same time, this is cycle 12 of us ttc. Cant say I feel particularly positive but definitely anxious we will be heading onto cycle 13! Won't test unless af is late...

Lille4 · 01/09/2020 07:48

@RobinRose thank you:) It’s frustrating to go through TTC and tww cycles each month for so long. I’m keeping fingers crossed for you. We’re trying for our 2nd and this is cycle 3 of ttc. Last time I tested only after AF was a day late so I’ll try not to test early this time. Sending baby dust x

🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm due on the 11th. Chemicals in the last 3 cycles and a TFMR in February.

AF due 8th September for me. Took a test today at what I believed to be 11dpo and got a negative. so not feeling very optimistic 😕

Littlebee1990 · 01/09/2020 08:08

AF due 11th for me but we’re away 3-13th so I’ll be testing early, probably around 7th. Cycle 5 trying for our first baby, had a chemical at 5 weeks in June x

ShellMc2237 · 01/09/2020 12:55

AF is due the 9th for me. I'm 10 dpo today and not tested yet, trying to hold out until the weekend if I can, this is cycle 9 for us

Lille4 · 01/09/2020 13:29

@NoCallerID oh my days, that must have been rough. I’m so sorry to hear and hope you get your sticky bean. I hear you can request further testing if you’ve had 3 chemicals or more. All the best 🙂

@Monday55 you’re not out until AF arrived. Don’t give up. 10 dpo is still quite early.

@Littlebee1990 sorry to hear about your chemical. Praying you get your bfp soon xx

@ShellMc2237 oh you’re nearly there. Fingers crossed! I always try to distract myself too so it feels like the 2WW is flying by 😊

Best wishes to everyone

@Lille4 thank you. We have been referred to a recurrent miscarriage clinic but not heard from them yet....

ShellMc2237 · 01/09/2020 14:27

@Lille4 nearly! I am not holding out much hope though, I don't feel any different this month at all. I expect if I was going to get a bfp I would feel different but I know that's not always the case

Waitingforbabypage · 01/09/2020 14:46

I'm due af 6/7th sept.
Yesterday I was feeling bloated, my jeans were hurting my tummy, I had cramps, my boobs were tingly etc but I actually can't see us being pregnant on our first month trying, we're simply not that lucky.
I want to test but don't want the disappointment of a bfn, so I'm just going to try and wait out for af to turn up. Or not...🤷🏼‍♀️

Longestride25 · 01/09/2020 14:50

Due on the 13th of September but I’m really not hopeful !!😂
I guessed when I was ovulating and had sex twice in that guessing period 🤣 but worth a shot !

HeyDW96 · 01/09/2020 14:55

Can I join?🙋🏼‍♀️

I just came off the pill 3 weeks ago after 8 years on it! I was using OPK’s to see if I was actually going to ovulate and I don’t appear to have done although I don’t honestly know how long my cycle will be. Until I started looking at forums I was genuinely extremely naive and can’t believe I spent so long trying not to have babies when I now realise how short a time frame you have each month to conceive! Trying to be casual about it and not worry or obsess but I feel like it’s taking over already! 4 of my friends have had babies this year and I feel like I’m going to be the one that isn’t able to somehow!

Wishing you all lots of luck x

Waitingforbabypage · 01/09/2020 15:03

@HeyDW96 oh man I know how you feel!! We put ourselves through so much trying not to get pregnant but when we actually want it, it feels impossible.
I have 2 children, they were both (happy) accidents while I was on the pill, but I can feel that trying to get number 3 in the bag isn't going to be an easy ride.

HeyDW96 · 01/09/2020 15:12

@Waitingforbabypage

It's crazy isn't it! My partner is very relaxed about it, as should I be just now as I'm still young, although he is a bit older than me. Never tried before and hoping to just enjoy trying but can see this is going to turn into a cycle obsessing until I get my period every month!

Plm28 · 01/09/2020 15:17

Should be due the 6th. Good luck everyone.

Waitingforbabypage · 01/09/2020 15:40

@HeyDW96 my other half is blissfully unaware of the craziness in my head, I'm quite glad to have this forum to see I am not alone.
I'm classed as geriatric at the ripe old age of 35, but we're having fun trying.
Also very luckily for us, we have a cracking sex life, so we're at it every other day anyway, so he didn't notice me slipping an extra session in during the suspected ovulation week 🤣
I am not a fan of not knowing what is going on though so I'm wishing time away like nobodies business to either get af here quicker or to see if I get a bfp.

ShellMc2237 · 01/09/2020 16:12

@HeyDW96 @Waitingforbabypage omg this sounds just like me! Was on the pill for 13 years and tried so hard NOT to get pregnant as I was terrified, now nothing is happening! It doesn't help that when you are in school they drill into you if you have unprotected sex once you will get pregnant so you just think it will happen 🤦‍♀️

HeyDW96 · 01/09/2020 16:22

@ShellMc2237 @Waitingforbabypage

It's hard to get your head round the fact that for years I tried to prevent this from happening, now ttc for one month and getting impatient 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣

Jessicatayla · 01/09/2020 16:29

My AF due tomorrow 😭, have no tests at home soni cant tempt myself as tomorrow is also the end of my TWW but with my first I got a BFN on my TWW and got a BFP 4 days after 🥰

ShellMc2237 · 01/09/2020 16:39

@Jessicatayla fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

RobinRose · 01/09/2020 16:49

@Jessicatayla fingers crossed 🤞!

GanderousGoose · 01/09/2020 16:53

Hi - I'm 40, due 6 Sep. Need help!! Already testing like a crazy person and ofc they're all BFNs... Need someone to tell me not to test for a few days Grin.

Waitingforbabypage · 01/09/2020 17:13

@GanderousGoose STOP TESTING!
Did it work?
I keep checking on all symptoms, googling different ovulation calculators to see if it's a different outcome 🤷🏼‍♀️

GanderousGoose · 01/09/2020 18:13

@Waitingforbabypage am doing exactly the same!! It did work, for now anyway 😂. Every day feels like a huge length of time and I already feel like I'm definitely out as had so many negative tests, even though I know I've been testing too early Blush.

Waitingforbabypage · 01/09/2020 18:37

@GanderousGoose
I refuse to believe I'm out until af arrives.
