Hey all! Wondered if anyone wants to survive the 2ww with me! The other boards move so fast I haven't been on for a week or so and can't catch up!
I am TTc second baby. DD just turned 9!!! 3rd month trying properly and used OPk for the first time this month. Last cycle was only 23 days but got a smiley face yesterday on cycle day 13 and DTD CR 8, 10, 12, 13 and hopefully tonight too! Fingers crossed 🤞

Hey I'm on my TWW too. I'm 2DPO. We're trying for our first and this is the third month TTC and the first month using OPK.

We DTD for 5 days in a row including the day after my positive OPK (hoping it was enough).

But good luck and send you lots of baby dust!

glow92 · 21/01/2021 12:02

@RHODXB Yes please! 1DPO today 😊, #1 and 2nd month TTC. @SSH27 you've been busy! We managed 3 out of 4 days prior to ovulation and the day of.

Exciting times 💜.

SSH27 · 21/01/2021 12:49

@glow92 Honestly I was so tired! I becomes very unromantic after a while! Blush

glow92 · 21/01/2021 12:57

@SSH27 😂 despite my partner being on board for TTC I've tried to keep him in the dark as much as possible about timings to try and avoid any weirdness. Kept my OPK's away etc!
Quite fancy a night to myself tonight though haha

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 13:41

Hey guys, I would LOVE to join this waiting game with you
I'm new to mums net been TTC for 5 months I'm currently 9dpo with loads of Af feelings but trying not to get my hopes up because im a sod for symptom spotting Confusedxxx

RHODXB · 21/01/2021 14:27

Good luck ladies!! Hopefully it will be a good month for us! @glow92 I really need to do the same as it can become a bit business like! 🙈😂

OP posts:
RHODXB · 21/01/2021 14:28

@SSH27 that's a good effort! I think now I'm using OPKs I'm going to try and get more DTD in on specific days . My cycles can be anywhere from 23 to 28 days so never sure when I'm ovulating!

RHODXB · 21/01/2021 14:29

I got pregnant with my daughter straight off the pill without even having a period so presumed it would happen quickly this time too but not to be yet

RHODXB · 21/01/2021 14:30

@Lizzie1302 it's impossible not to symptom spot isn't it! Will you hold out to test until period is due?

glow92 · 21/01/2021 14:43

@RHODXB haha I'm having a date with myself and old eps of sex and the city on the iPad tonight - can't wait!

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 14:52

@RHODXB God I'm not strong enough to do that hahaha! I plan on testing tomorrow. I track my cycles on an app and it say I'm due on the 26th but it's possible I might start on the 24th so I got the cb early detection xx

RHODXB · 21/01/2021 15:00

@Lizzie1302 good luck! Keep us posted!

@glow92 I LoVE satc even though I know it's awful! Enjoy! I am binge watching Real housewives of Beverly Hills 🙈🙈🙈

SSH27 · 21/01/2021 16:06

@glow92 I don't actually think he has any clue about the cycles apart from me letting him know when to have sex! Ahahaha. Yeah the down time is greatly appreciated sometimes! Love SATC. Have you watched Yummy Mummies? Obsessed!

@Lizzie1302 Welcome! And I am a massive symptom spotter as well and can't stop poas. So I'm trying to remain cool this month and won't be testing until day 14 hopefully.

@RHODXB I think I'll do that next month to be fair. I wasn't really sure what to look for and was really confused the whole time until I got my super dark line and it just clicked!

hhaileyy · 21/01/2021 16:35

Hello ladies!! I'd love to join you. Smile I'm currently 6dpo. I don't know why but I have a strong feeling this cycle!

AbiBrown · 21/01/2021 16:55

Hello, this looks fun, I'll join. Bit weird but this is the first month actually having unprotected sex during my fertile week as it's the first month I've felt I want another child. I adore my 2.5 DD and was OAD as I'm an only child and loved it any wanted the same opportunities for our daughter. Also our lives are so chilled so why rock the boat. And yet... I'm loving being a mum so much that I kinda actually want another! We've not had a proper discussion but not using anything so very much seeing what happens. But I have tracked dtd in an app 😅 my ttw should start today really... Let's see! It's awful timing as we need to move, our flat is too small, we're talkinh about potentiality moving to another country I'm a national of (Brexit) and covid... So totally irrational!

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 17:34

@SSH27 aww you've got more patience then me! It feels like this month is the one so it's hard not to get my hopes up so much. I've never had so many symptoms, even down to stuffy noses and lots of gas Confused

Welcome @hhaileyy
Hoping this month is our month ladies. Fingers crossed

bcrvmama · 21/01/2021 17:38

Yes! Can I join too? I'm 8 DPO and have been going insane in this TWW! I'm TTC through IUI, and this is my first cycle. I'm imagining symptoms I think. I'll be taking an early test at 11 DPO.

glow92 · 21/01/2021 17:59

@SSH27 @RHODXB ✨I couldn't help but wonder✨.... will this be our month?

Give me all the cringe.

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 18:49

@bcrvmama hey!!
Honestly it's so hard because you think you're imagining things don't you! Wishing you all the best and hopefully you get that bfp xx

bcrvmama · 21/01/2021 18:53

Thank you! Same to you!! And I've changed my mind. I think I might test tomorrow morning with the cb early test lol I can't handle it anymore. I also just wiped after peeing and I see slight bleeding, so maybe implantation bleeding?

Fireplacedreamer · 21/01/2021 20:41

Hi all, can I join too, 7dpo.. symptom spotting every second and totally obsessing! Trying not to but its sooo hard.

Good luck to everyone, let's hope it is our month 🤞

bcrvmama · 21/01/2021 20:51

@Fireplacedreamer Hi!! I feel your pain! It's so hard not to obsess over it. Good luck!!

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 21:19

@Fireplacedreamer
What symptoms are you both getting?! Would love to share stories as I too am going out of my mind
And @bcrvmama haha me too! Please keep us posted with results. That definitely sounds like implantation bleeding _ when are you due on Af xx

Fireplacedreamer · 21/01/2021 21:36

@Lizzie1302 only sore boobs, extreme tiredness at the moment. However that could be just be AF mixed with lockdown life. Last month I convinced myself that I was pregnant due to having soo many symptoms but then AF arrived right on time. So trying not to get my hopes up but at the same time I really need the hope!

Have you had any symptoms?

Lizzie1302 · 21/01/2021 21:45

@Fireplacedreamer ohh well I'm hoping for the best for you. I can't say tiredness is a symptom for me, I'm a nurse always working overtime so that's just my general day to day ahah. Erm symptoms wise I've felt quite sick and then I feel like I'm starving so I eat and I feel sick again! And I've had some Af pains but it's not due for another 3-5 days. I end up symptom spotting all the time down to the littlest thing like I keep sneezing and apparently that can be a sign too! Haha we shall see tomorrow xxx
