Anyone else in the dreaded tww?
I'm currently 2DPO. Would be nice to chat to others in the same waiting game to keep us sane!

@zeerecords I'll be holding out until Thursday when I'll be 10DPO. I seriously can't wait any longer than that 😂 I only have internet cheapy strip tests so I need to order some frer

Hi @Highfalutinlootin 👋🏻
4DPO for me today. We all seem to be very close on our dpo! So will be great to give each other moral support ❤️
Hoping we get lots of bfp by the end of November. How amazing would that be for a Christmas present.

@Highfalutinlootin I'll test on 10DPO which is Thursday for me xx

madeinthe80z · 13/11/2020 09:09

@mummyofone2019 I think I will try and hold out till Thursday too. I am trying to remember what I did last time but I knew exactly when I ovulated then! I am due AF on 22/23 so Thursday will be 3 days before, is that too early?! Not even sure what kind of test I have up in the bathroom 😆
Wasn't planning on this by any means but now I am obsessing!!

Highfalutinlootin · 13/11/2020 09:13

Wow you must have great self control if you can make it to 10 DPO! I bet I'll crack and test on Monday.

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 09:15

@madeinthe80z AF is due 23rd for me too (or round about then) so it looks like we are the same!
I'm going to order the first response 6 days before test. That's what I used with baby no1.
I did a cheap strip test first and there was the faintest of faint lines but I knew there was something there. So I went for it and did the frer and there was an obvious line!

@Highfalutinlootin haha I'm just trying not to disappoint myself too muc 🥺 when do you plan on testing?

OP posts:
mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 09:18

Just a question for everyone....
Are you trying for baby number 1 or baby number 2 (or more!)?

This will be baby number 2 for me. I have a daughter who is 15 months old (born august 2019) 💗

@mummyofone2019 the thought of testing is sooo exciting and amazing that you got your BFP on 10dpo with your daughter so crossing everything for you for Thursday! AF was 2 days late last month and I was convinced but was obviously a BFN and I wasted a FRER on it too 😂

madeinthe80z · 13/11/2020 09:44

@mummyofone2019 we are scarily very similar, I also have a 15 month old born August 2019 and am due AF on the same day as you too 😂

DJmum83 · 13/11/2020 09:56

Hi everyone I'm either 7 or 8dpo.
Trying to hold out until at least 11/12 dpo.
This will be my 4th child.
Xx

madeinthe80z · 13/11/2020 09:59

Hi @DJmum83
I bet the TWW doesn't get any easier does it?!

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 09:59

@S345 I was late last month too and wasted my frer 😖 I've got a stash of cheapy strip tests so if I feel the urge to test I'll use those !

OP posts:
mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 10:01

Omg how weird! @madeinthe80z 😂
We are convinced that whenever we have baby no2 it will be another girl. Don't know why 🤷🏻‍♀️

@mommyofone2019 girls are the best 😍😍

PurpleIsTheColour · 13/11/2020 12:51

8dpo here and I’ve got my frers arriving today and am testing this weekend. Been doing cheapies for the last two days too as I just like to poas😭😭😭 Also symptoms spotting like mad this month and my FF chart looks absolutely hilarious from all the symptoms I’ve recorded ... 😀😀
My mmc I didn’t test until 4 days late as I just didn’t think you can get preggies from having sex only one single time,but maybe it was successful because there was no bbt/ovulation/cm tracking and obsessing every month. I really think that this stress around getting a bfp is having an effect on the actual chances of getting pregnant😕😕

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 12:59

@PurpleIsTheColour yay 8DPO is so close to being able to test! I have my fingers crossed for you ❤️

Jessandra · 13/11/2020 13:10

Please could I join? I’m 8DPO... haven’t tested yet.
Never POAS before, but nervous 😂 First time TTC, having had a coil for 12 years my OH and I never thought about having kids until this year. It’s all very new to me! Would be lovely to be able to join in with out ladies’ journeys 🥰

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 13:19

Hi @Jessandra 👋🏻
Woohoo 8DPO is so close to being able to test!! When do you think you will? X

OP posts:
Jessandra · 13/11/2020 13:29

@mommyofone2019 😃 👋🏻

Will probably try to wait until Tuesday, think AF is due next Sat/Sunday. I’m trying not to get excited, but it is so difficult! I feel like a complete amateur compared to all of you guys - I didn’t even know about ovulation until last month 🙈

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 13:32

@Jessandra that was exactly like me when we were trying for our 1st. It is as a whole new world!!

jennaxc · 13/11/2020 13:44

Hi again everyone. I did a strip today today (10dpo) and I'm pretty sure I see a line, I then did a frer and am pretty sure I can see a line. Then did a digi clear blue and says not pregnant 🙈 going crazy over here!! Don't want to tell my bf unless I'm sure so I'm telling you guys 🤣

mommyofone2019 · 13/11/2020 13:50

@jennaxc can you post a photo on here?
The digital ones aren't as sensitive so that's probably why that came up as negative xx

Hi ladies, may I join the chat, I’m DPO 6/7 😊 I’m using the Natural Cycles app and Fertility Friend (I received a friends referral for a month so thought I’d give it a go). I’ve been tempting every morning and using the CB digital ovulation tests - then use a LH test the same day I get a solid smiley to confirm it. Love hearing everyone’s stories and so nice to have a little support group 🤗
