@SunnydazeQ it’s crazy what we put ourselves through. Don’t lose hope. You’re not out until AF arrives. I caved and did an opk - no peak yet. Hopefully next week!

Congratulations @melyna86 it’s so lovely to see a positive!! Gives us all hope! How long were you trying TTC if you don’t mind me asking?

jessicalouise10 · 10/10/2020 10:41

@melyna86 congratulations! So happy for you.
Did you track bbt?
Can you talk us through your TWW signs and symptoms to stop some of us (me!) going mental 😂

kimberley94 · 10/10/2020 11:19

Congratulations @melyna86 ❤️

Purpleflowers21 · 10/10/2020 11:29

Morning ladies!
Congratulations to those who have got their BFP’s and good luck to those still waiting! I’ve just entered my TWW and already over analysing every little thing! I do keep getting a very mild pain in my lower right hand side but trying not to think too much of this x

Purpleflowers21 · 10/10/2020 11:31

@jessicalouise10 would be helpful for me too - just started my very first TWW and trying not to over analyse everything Hmm x

melyna86 · 10/10/2020 11:37

We was trying for 4 month after loosing baby boy in June, pregnancy ended at 24 weeks sadly. So I was monitoring my body temperature and obviously ovulation testing like crazy. Actually no simtoms for me just I start eating more sugar and then I realised something is different becouse I don't eat sugar at all, maybe a wee bit swelling breasts but other than that, nothing. I hope I answered some of the questions and I really hope not long until you get positive pregnancy test Wink

melyna86 · 10/10/2020 11:39

Thank you :)

melyna86 · 10/10/2020 11:46

@Jellytot91 it’s all so new with it being ours first cycle ttc isn’t it! No idea what to expect x

Kaybobx · 10/10/2020 13:00

Hey. Can i jump on the bus? 8dpo at the minute, cycle 13 for baby number two 😭 this second one just doesn't want to happen

Kg87 · 10/10/2020 13:01

@melyna86 congrats!! 🎉

jessicalouise10 · 10/10/2020 14:30

@Purpleflowers21 my first cycle too! Currently 5dpo and Googling like a mad woman 😂

Purpleflowers21 · 10/10/2020 14:35

@jessicalouise10 I haven’t tracked ovulation yet as just going to see how things go the first few cycles but if I did ovulate as my apps predict I’ll be 2dpo, I think it’s going to be a long 2 weeks 🙈 x

Kg87 · 10/10/2020 14:55

I went for my first cycle monitoring scan yesterday and the doctor said she could see around 20 follicles when she would usually expect 4-6 and that I am potentially bordering on PCOS, anyone have a similar result before? Not sure if she meant 20 per ovary though as we didn’t have time to discuss, she was in quite a rush to get to the next patient 😐

PurplePops · 10/10/2020 16:37

Congratulations @melyna86! Its so nice seeing a positive! X

BrilliantButScary · 10/10/2020 17:53

Congratulations @melyna86 🤗

Fingers crossed for @Purpleflowers21*@jessicalouise10 @Kaybobx* and anyone else currently in their TWW! 🤞

@Kg87 sorry I don't have any advice/experience but hopefully someone else will be able to help 💕 the appointment sounded stressful. Do you know what the next steps are or if the doctor will follow-up with you and explain properly? X

Mommabear20 · 10/10/2020 17:56

Can I join?
Cycle 1 TTC baby #2
In my tww AF due in 11 days! 🤞🤞

Kaybobx · 10/10/2020 17:57

@kg87 she probably meant in total. I had a scan back in March and had 9 on my right and 6 in my left. Thats terrible she didn't discuss with you, are you getting a follow up report or anything?

Kg87 · 10/10/2020 18:50

@BrilliantButScary @Kaybobx
it was very weird! They only had 3 patients in the waiting area so I’m assuming that must be busy for them! I sat down in her office after the exam assuming we’d discuss the results but I got the impression she didn’t want me to sit 🙈 she just said we’ll do some blood tests and then check again next Thursday so I think there isn’t much else to do with cycle monitoring - she will just assess how many are there next week, I assume if they don’t change in size or there is still approx 20 she might say I've got PCOS, after a bit of online research (as I wasn’t told anything when I was there 😂) it seems that if you have lots of immature follicles it likely suggests PCOS, I will have to wait and see on Thursday at my second scan!

Kaybobx · 10/10/2020 19:01

@kg87 thats so odd, my sonographer told me everything she was seeing on the screen. At my next scan she checked the growth, they hadn't changed much so arranged a scan in another 3 days where they had got to size. Oh i didn't know about the lots of immature follicles and PCOS. Not very good she didn't elaborate on it though and let you in limbo! I hope you get the answers soon 🙏

gotenoughthanks · 10/10/2020 19:04

Hi everyone, cycle 2 TTC #2 for me and DH but wasn't 'really' trying very hard last month...! I reckon I'm about 4 days before AF is due and DESPERATE to test but not sure I can face the potential BFN... keep telling myself that I felt nothing much different when expecting DD at this point last time so maybe I'll be lucky?!

Theawkwardblonde · 10/10/2020 19:10

I've entered the dreaded TWW. I promised myself I wouldn't track this month but here I am 😂😂

Kg87 · 10/10/2020 19:15

@Kaybobx ahh that’s good they explained, my doctor aggressively moved the wand side to side to show me each ovary and whipped it out of me seconds later 😂 Hopefully my next appointment will shed some light and won’t have to rely on google haha!
