Hii ladiess! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Basically what the title says really..

I’ll add a bit about myself.. I’ve got 1 3year old girl and I’ve had 4 miscarriages.. the last one being twins. They can’t find any causes for the miscarriages 🤷🏻‍♀️ so this time they said, as soon as I find out I’m pregnant, they’ll give me a progesterone pessary.

So I’m currently 2/3 dpo. Cd41 I got a positive opk (yeah my periods are really irregular.. again they can’t find the cause)
Bd cd41 & 42. Had heavy, clear ewcm on both days as well as cd43, sore boobs, cramps in lower abdomen & slight twinges in back on cd42.

Today cd44, I’ve still got slight cramping and slight ewcm.. not very hopeful as my cycles have become too irregular to keep up with anything. But I’d still like to hold onto some positive vibes & hope for the best.

Anyone else in the tww? Would love to read some stories ❤️

Hi @Angelbabies4, I’m 4dpo, so I’ll join you for the long tww if you don’t mind!

So sorry for your losses Flowers

A bit about my journey in return - TTC first child for around 15/16 months now. Had a mmc at 11 weeks in May.
I have irregular periods and appears I don’t ovulate every month, but there seems to be no answers rhyme or reason as to why!

I’ve used the conceive plus this month, because why not! I’m not too hopeful, but it would be so lovely to receive some good news around what would have been my due date. Ovulation killed me this month, it was soo painful! My boobs have been a bit tender, but that happens on and off for me in the lead up to AF anyway 😂.

Ewcm could be a good sign, it’s still early days isn’t it. When do you think you’ll test?

Sending positive vibes your way 💫

Angelbabies4 · 23/11/2020 12:51

Hey @Carefree1 thanks hun. Sorry for your loss. It’s so heartbreaking isn’t it? 💔

I thought I won’t be getting any tww buddies but thank you for coming along x

These irregular periods are horrible, like whyyy??!!

But yaaaay! “Hi5” I used conceive plus this month too. I’ve been having the fertility capsules as well as the lubricant. I’ve used it with 4 of my previous pregnancy’s and actually swear by it.

It’s very early days but I’m so nervous this month, I felt so scared trying again so cuz of that I’ve been stressing and have ended up with an ectopic heartbeat 🤦🏻‍♀️ So I’m waiting for treatment for that too atm

According to my Flo app, period would be due on the 6th but that feels so long away 😩 I might test earlier depending on my symptoms. How about you?

@Angelbabies4 yes, it’s so rubbish!

Ahh I’ve never used the fertility lubricant before, so fingers crossed it helps. I think I’ll try anything at this point!

I didn’t know what an ectopic heartbeat was, so had to google it. But bless you, you’re really going through it at the moment, hope that it gets sorted soon.

I’m apparently due af on the 3rd or 4th December depending which app I use. I might test on the 2nd, but hopefully I can hold out and see if the witch arrives first xx

Angelbabies4 · 23/11/2020 18:19

@Carefree1 ahh I can imagine. I hope we both get our little rainbow babies. I’m scared to even get my hopes up now

Ah lol I should have explained. I didn’t know what it was either until the dr explained it to me. But thank you. I hope it does too cuz it’s really affecting my daily routine

Ah you’re sooner than me so that’s good. Hopefully we both can wait but I’m a sucker for waiting. I give in too easily. Worse thing is I’m always stocked up 🤦🏻‍♀️

Are you a symptom spotter addict? Cuz I am lol
I’ve had a horrible headache today on the left side then on the right so had to google that.. I literally drive myself crazy lol xx

Hi! I'd like to join. So sorry to hear about your losses.

I'm TTCing for no 2 but my cycles range from 29-48 days which makes it interesting. This is our first month trying so no idea when to test, currently on CD24 (last two cycles were 29, 31 days so hoping this ones a shorter one too!)

Carefree1 · 24/11/2020 14:03

@Angelbabies4 it’s so tough to hold out isn’t it, I’m so impatient. But, I’ve not got any tests left, so I guess that should help (until I see a good deal on Amazon 😂).

I kind of am too - I ate something yesterday and it made me feel soo sick. I had to stop myself like jeez, stop! See, when I fell last time, I constantly had headaches, so could be a good sign for you!!

@SeaOtterPatrol welcome to the longest two weeks ☺️.
Ah thank you Flowers
Do you track ovulation? How many dpo are you?
Baby dust 💫

Angelbabies4 · 24/11/2020 18:17

@SeaOtterPatrol heyy hun, welcome 💕
Thank you 🤗

Was it the same when you conceived with no1? Cuz my cycles weren't this long with my first. Now they're just ridiculous, I can never keep up. What day did you ovulate? X

@Carefree1 I hope it's a good sign cuz I've had it again today. It just comes n goes really. Cm is still there too. Are you feeling anything? x

OP posts:
SeaOtterPatrol · 24/11/2020 20:58

We spontaneously decided to start trying this month so I haven't been tracking my temp etc, so not sure when I've ovulated!
I was irregular with DC1 too, but I'd been tracking temp for about 6 months before we started trying so I knew when I was ovulating.
Think I need to start temping again, I've got about 5 different apps now recording all my data Confused

Angelbabies4 · 24/11/2020 23:13

@SeaOtterPatrol Ah that makes sense. Lol that many apps would be so confusing. I've got 2 that I've been using & downloaded a 3rd a week ago which reads your ovulation and pregnancy tests for you. So no more squinting for lines lol

It tells you the peak on your ovulation tests. So that would be good to start with after a period. I only found out about it last week so couldn't start it this cycle

I hope you get your positive this month though! Would be a nice spontaneous baby 🤗

Are you feeling any different than normal? Any symptoms?x

OP posts:
SeaOtterPatrol · 25/11/2020 11:33

I was a bit crampy not long after when I think I ovulated (which was my main symptom last time I was pregnant) but the last few days nothing! I normally get spots and get really irritable about a week before I'm due on but nothing so far. I bought some FRERs today but going to wait till the weekend at least until I use one (will be around CD 30 then).
Are you having any more potential signs? When are you going to test?

Angelbabies4 · 25/11/2020 22:54

@SeaOtterPatrol aww that's a good sign. Let's hope there's a bun in the oven 💕 cramps are definitely a positive indication towards conception so fx for you!
What were your first symptoms with your first? When did you find out you were expecting?

I've been pregnant that many times, you'd think I'd know what it feels like but it really is true when they say every pregnancy is different.

At the moment, I've got quite a sore back especially whilst cooking today, I was in agony. I get the odd cramp or so in my lower stomach during the day too. Definitely got cm every time I go to the toilet.. that's an indication for me as I usually dry up after ovulation so fx it's a good sign

Not sure about testing yet, I don't want to start wasting my tests this early on so I might test on Monday at 10/11dpo x

OP posts:
Carefree1 · 26/11/2020 09:15

@Angelbabies4 seems like you’re having some positive symptoms, so fingers crossed for you!
I’m not really getting any symptoms to be honest, I’ve got some cramping almost and just tired, so AF probably on the way.

I just need to hold out buying tests before next week. Monday I’ll be 11/12 dpo and might hold out til the Wednesday, not sure I can face another bfn. Although, I know I’ll likely be too impatient 😂

Hope you’re both ok 💗

Angelbabies4 · 26/11/2020 16:22

@Carefree1 I'm feeling hopeful, so lets see how it goes. I've been feeling really weak & tired today and horrible nausea. So not sure if I'm coming down with something or if it's possible early pregnancy symptoms

Aww don't give up hope. Hoping you get your BFP this month 💕
Best to wait it out as much as possible.. I know it's easier said than done cuz I'm really bad at waiting too lol

With my last pregnancy I got my bfp at 7dpo but this time I'm not going to check so early on cuz I'm actually scared 😔

Just praying the witch doesn't arrive for us 🤲🏻

OP posts:
SeaOtterPatrol · 28/11/2020 21:35

How are you both getting on? I've been crampy on and off the last few days, and felt like AF was coming a few times but nothing yet - still only CD28. May do a test Monday as I'm pretty sure I ovulated somewhere CD14-18
With DD I had cramps a few days before I tested, and had a positive at 10DPO.

Carefree1 · 29/11/2020 08:43

Morning ladies,
I’ve not had too many symptoms at all, just been a bit emotional (cried at a Christmas song 🤷‍♀️ 😂) and have had tender boobs on and off, but I seem to get that before AF anyway. Haven’t had any cramping for a couple of days now either.
I’m about 10/11dpo now, but I think I’ll be able to hold out until Wednesday as I don’t feel positive this time.
@Angelbabies4 wow, 7dpo is soo early isn’t, do you think you’ll hold off?
@SeaOtterPatrol looks like the cramps may be a good sign, fingers crossed 🤞

Catkin7 · 29/11/2020 13:42

Hello ladies, do you mind if I join?
I’m currently 3dpo. I ovulated cycle day 16 (positive opk Cd15) However last month was our first month trying and I only had a 26 day cycle.
So is ovulating on Cd16 too late? Or I may have a longer cycle this month? I only came off the pill beginning of October.

Carefree1 · 30/11/2020 09:29

Good luck @Angelbabies4 & @SeaOtterPatrol if you’re testing today!!

Hi @Catkin7 welcome!
I think a 10 day luteal phase is right on the edge of normal, so you should be ok. It could be your body adjusting to coming off the pill as it can take a while for your cycles to regulate.

SeaOtterPatrol · 30/11/2020 10:02

I'm intrigued which Christmas song it was @Carefree1
I decided not to test today - going to hold out a little longer, not really sure why. I've become really
Spotty the last day or so which is usually a sign of impending AF. Are you still going to test Wednesday?
Welcome @Catkin7

SeaOtterPatrol · 30/11/2020 10:03

Have you tested @Angelbabies4 ?

Angelbabies4 · 30/11/2020 18:06

Hii ladies

@SeaOtterPatrol @Carefree1 hope you're both well! I haven't tested no 😩 the witch caught me so I had to take time to get used to her being here. Turns out I get all the symptoms under the sun for AF 🤦🏻‍♀️

Here's to another cycle of trying. Hoping this is the month for me.

Any of you tested yet?xx

OP posts:
Angelbabies4 · 30/11/2020 18:07

Welcome @Catkin7 🙋🏻‍♀️

How are you getting on so far? Good luck with the tww xx

OP posts:
Catkin7 · 30/11/2020 18:36

Thank you @Angelbabies4 so sorry AF appeared.
I have zero symptoms, apart from bloating but I get that pretty much all the time. Last month I had crazy symptoms but absolutely nothing so far this time around.

Carefree1 · 30/11/2020 20:40

@SeaOtterPatrol it was blooming Sam Smiths have yourself a merry Christmas. Hope AF stays away for you.
Not sure whether I will test Wednesday or wait until the end of the week. I’ll be 13/14 dpo Wednesday.
@Angelbabies4 sorry the witch showed for you. Hope this cycle is a lucky one for you xx

SeaOtterPatrol · 01/12/2020 09:34

Oh no @Angelbabies4 I feel like I'm not pregnant this month so holding out to test so I don't get disappointed. Although if I'm going off my last two cycles then AF should come today so I may test tomorrow! I'm still a bit crampy and spotty but no other symptoms, hence why I think this isn't our month!

Oh @Carefree1 😂that's hilarious. How are you feeling today?
@Catkin7 is it your first your TTC for?

Shell4860 · 01/12/2020 10:04

Can I join? I'm 9dpo today but going to try and hold off testing until Thursday/ Friday if I can. Not really had any sore boobs or anything this month that I usually get for pms but since yesterday I've had loads of gloopy ewcm and then yesterday cramps but nothing today
