TWW - testing mid November

[Forest27]

Morning!

Anyone else just starting their TWW? My cycle length varies (28-31 days). I’m due AF around 16th-19th November, which feels ages away! I don’t know how I’m going to cope. Does anyone have any tips? 😂😩

@Boredinthehouse12 haha me too! I somehow wake up in the morning with half of a blanket and it rolled around the hubs. Greedy bastard. Bad enough he cant sleep without a fan on. Sometimes I think he's 12. lol

Did a quick ab workout today and I thought to myself, I wonder if I should even be doing this. It TTC a reasonable excuse to getting out of doing any exercise. My mother in law told me I am not allowed to do anything for the first 5 months of pregnancy, and whilst I know that's not true, you bet I am going to milk it for all its worth! LOL

@mrsmumsy00 I definitely recommend them! This is my second cycle TTC after my molar pregnancy. I've used OPKs this time round and I've just got a BPF on a FRER! I'm so nervous!!! I hope it sticks!

@mommyofone2019 The TWW feels like years of my life haha! It's like waiting for an exam result!

@CookieMonster3001 There's some safe exercises you can do but this early on I don't think it matters :) but I'll definitely be milking it and getting my OH to do as much as I can haha

@Forest27 well I was thinking about doing a test this weekend...then AF turned up today It seems early as according to the OPKs I would only be day 7 or 8 dpo....it is my first cycle since my first "real" period for over 10 years though, so hopefully just my cycle establishing it's self. How about you? Did you say you thought you saw a faint line?? That sounds very promising!

@Catmum55566 Aw no! Sorry to hear that! Is it a full period and not implantation? When did you stop taking the pill? I and 31 day cycles off the pill, but they’ve gone irregular again now 😒

Yes I had a faint positive on a cheapie and I did a FRER before. I couldn’t help myself and got a BFP 😆 it’s faint but it’s there!

Now I’m nervous because it could be a chemical... but I’ll always find something to worry about 😂

Ahhhh congratulations @Forest27! That is a good line! What dpo are you? Have you had any symptoms?

Yeah full on flow over here but I only stopped taking the pill in September so it is early days. I did OPKs to see if I ovulated this month and looks like I did but just late on CD 22 or 23. On the bright side at least I can drink some wine this weekend!

@Forest27 congrats!! I hope it sticks xx

Congratulations @forest27 that's such good news!

Thanks everyone!!! I’m so nervous for when AF is due now! Is anyone else testing soon?

@Catmum55566 I had a positive OPK on 1st November so I’m just assuming I ovulated on 2nd or 3rd so about 8/9 DPO I think? 🤔

The first thing was the incredibly sore boobs! I had this last time. Then the twinges. Then slight nausea but I felt sick last month as well so I didn’t think much of it. I’m also so HUNGRY all the time. Like starving. And today I’ve gone off coffee, which I drink so much of 🥺

My boobs right now are the most sore they’ve ever been and they look awful 😩

Yes that’s what I did last month! Drank wine every night for a week once my period started 😂

@Forest27 aww lovely what a great line really hope it sticks. Have everything crossed for you.
I had a positive opk on Wednesday 4th November and a lot of cramp pain Thursday 5th so I think I'm 6 dpo.
I'm getting a lot of cramping tonight and pulling/ stretching feelings but I'm not sure if I'm just looking for it and that would usually happen in lead up to AF.
I just have a feeling I'm out this month but we will see. I'm going to try not to test until I'm at least 11 or 12 dpo. Easier said than done.

So pleased for you x
