Hey everyone! Thought I would start a March 2021 TTC bus. I'm TTC for first baby, cycle #8, CD12 hopping off from Feb 2021 bus. Wishing lots of baby dust and BFPs to all! Xx

@TeeBee89 Congratulations!!

Is it ok if I try to load a photo of my tests? They are definite lines but today seems lighter. I am due AF tomorrow and getting HCG tomorrow (so I know the answer is wait for that but obviously I can't!). I'm extra concerned as had 2 chemicals the last 2 months and a miscarriage before that and I'm on the older side! The last two tests are today and yesterday at 11am, if anything today's wee was more concentrated!

yepstilltrying · 18/03/2021 12:08

...and I have seen so many posts saying that the line should be getting darker than the control one. :-(

DreadedTWW · 18/03/2021 12:09

@sylvie1001 @dunkedbiscuit

How are you both feeling today? Xx

sylvie1001 · 18/03/2021 12:32

@DreadedTWW @dunkedbiscuit still have sore boob (only the right which is weird) but nothing else, think I’m going to test on Sunday which will be DPO 11. How are you today?

Twochews78 · 18/03/2021 12:35

Oh wow!! That’s incredible. Very exciting. I hope it all works out. xxx

DreadedTWW · 18/03/2021 13:19

@sylvie1001 yes, I am the same in terms of not feeling any different other than mild cramping and a back ache. Ohhh exciting, keep us updated wont you? Xx

yepstilltrying · 18/03/2021 13:21

Think I'm attaching two photos. It's always a bad sign if the most recent one is lighter?
Hopefully someone can shed some light! Most things I've read says it's not great :-(

AF arrived today bang on time and with vengeance!! ☹️ Trying not to dwell too much, pull my big girl pants up and get ready for cycle #5.
Wishing the rest of you riding out the TWW the best of luck!!
I’ve also promised myself I will not buy any more tests to start testing early, can’t cope with the heartbreak each month! Xxx

Hi all, just jumped on today and have been reading the thread. Congrats to all with good news.
Tcc since June, had long cycles so went to clinic in Nov and tests showed mild pcos which I wasn't expecting. Prescribed metformin in January and taking 2 tabs a day, was eating really well and lost a stone. Took ovul test and got smiley on day 19. I'm not sure if the tabs work that soon but never got positive ovulation test that early. Terrible cramps all that week. Feel like my uterus was blown up with air ( no other way to describe it) and like stitches in my side. Took a test 8dpo and it was negative, I was so upset I cried the whole evening and felt stupid for thinking this time would be it. App telling me period due early next week but I still have bloating and cramps. Sadly I still feel hopful but im sure I'll be disappointed. Anyway thanks for listening, it feels good to get what I feel out. Best of luck to all xxx

@EB86 hey! Sad to hear your going through this:( but don't lose hope, it's still very very early! If this isn't the month keep trying we are all on this journey with you this is a safe space to vent xx

Thank you so much. I think I was a debbie downer earlier, feel so much better since even saying how I felt in the post. Its good to talk I guess. Fingers crossed things go well this year. How are you? XXX

DreadedTWW · 18/03/2021 20:05

@yepstilltrying I don't have an answer to your question, but I just wanted to wish you all the best on your BFP xx

millionairesshortbread4 · 18/03/2021 20:11

@yepstilltrying how are you? I honestly think your line is still good, don't meet worry half way xx

millionairesshortbread4 · 18/03/2021 20:14

Anyone else 7dpo? X

Looks good to me
Pennyh123 · 18/03/2021 20:44

Hi, I’m 6/7 dpo. Got my peak using clear blue digital on 11th March morning, so presume I ovulated later that day or the next. The wait is driving me mad! Going to old out until next weds/thurs to test

yepstilltrying · 18/03/2021 20:50

@DreadedTWW @EB86 @millionairesshortbread4

Thanks all. I can't help worrying about it. I know the line is still quite strong but that's how my previous chemicals started so it's stressing me out! Although they never got this dark so I am still hopeful. HCG tomorrow so at least that will tell me more.

@EB86 8dpo is still really early to test. Don't rule it out yet!

millionairesshortbread4 · 18/03/2021 20:55

@Pennyh123 hey! Yeah exact same for me, I use the pink CB ov tests so that was my smiley day 😊
This TWW has definitely felt like the slowest one yet - torture! Been TTC since May last year.
How are you feeling symtom wise?

DreadedTWW · 18/03/2021 21:44

@yepstilltrying keep us updated xx

@millionairesshortbread4 I am also 6/7 dpo when are you planning on taking a test. how are you feeling? Xx

Pennyh123 · 18/03/2021 21:49

I’m feeling no different really so far, I had a little bit of cramping yesterday but trying not to symptom spot (easier said than done!) This is our first month TTC, I had my implant removed on 10th Feb, very slight period 24th/25th Feb. Fingers crossed this is your month!

dunkedbiscuit · 18/03/2021 22:42

@DreadedTWW thanks for your message, I’m doing ok - had a really busy day at work which kept me distracted! I’m not feeling v confident about this month at all so just want to get this limbo of waiting over and done with really! I’m trying to wait until next week before testing though 😬

@sylvie1001 good luck with the test Sunday!

@Court2611sorry AF has got you, how are you feeling?

I’ve got no symptoms at all, other than feeling tired - but I’m not sure if that’s any different to normal tbh!

@yepstilltrying oh it’s so hard not to analyse the lines isn’t it! If you can bear it I would really try to wait a few days before testing again. I realise that’s easier said than done though!

millionairesshortbread4 · 18/03/2021 22:45

DreadedTWW yay! I don't test early any more, too much heartbreak from a lot of previous months. Having said that, there's always tears when AF shows anyway😂
Symptom wise, I (think) I've had dull cramps v low down which I certainly have neber noticed before.
How about you?

@Pennyh123 yeah it definitely is easier said than done! I try not to either and try to tell myself any symptoms could be a million different things. Fingers crossed for your BFP🤞

millionairesshortbread4 · 18/03/2021 22:47

@DreadedTWW phone messing up and didn't tag you in above!

Cuddles21 · 18/03/2021 23:28

@Court2611 @Confused678866 @Aims1991 feel your frustration guys about being onto another month but trying to stay upbeat about it and not think about it. Its our first baby and I was the one who put ttc out there in the last year as even though I'm 30, I had just worried about us being a couple that it wouldn't happen easily for and I guess every month is another month of worrying as I can't really imagine not having kids. We'll go into the next cycle (I'm currently CD3) and go again and try not to think about it while hoping for the best at the same time and peeing on ovulation sticks to find out when to DTD 😆

SF543 · 18/03/2021 23:39

@EB86 it's really great to be able to vent and let things out! It definitely helps.. I'm good, I'm 1/2DPO so just patiently waiting lol xx
