1DPO - Anyone want to join for the 2WW?

Hello! First month TTC. Currently 1DPO, no symptoms as of yet, but already feeling stressed at the thought of not knowing if we were successful for two more weeks! Worried we didn't BD enough, we did every other day during the fertile window including day before O. Anyone got any advice or just want to join in the conversation to get us through the wait?

@thisisouryear hello! Welcome! It would be very unusual to get a positive test at 7DPO - that would mean you'd have to have implanted at 5DPO which is pretty much unheard of. Most people get a positive 48 hours after implantation and 8-10DPO is the most common time to implant so therefore 10-12DPO is when you are most likely to get your first positive. Saying that, some people don't get a positive until we'll after AF is due. You're definitely not out yet! 😃

Welcome @thisisouryear! I think stats say that implantation doesn't usually happen until 6-12 dpo and is more often on the latter half of that window. So, lots of time left for a BFP for you!

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 20:16

Oops you beat me to it @IzzT Wink

80sPadme · 30/04/2021 23:23

I'm 6dpo and I am not good in my belly at all, mega bloated, bad cramps. When does implantation usually happen as I'm feeling pretty weird. My boobs are mega sore and I have been feeling worry and lightheaded all day.
May all be psychosomatic but who knows.

dogmom0930 · 30/04/2021 23:40

@80sPadme I’ve seen the range of 6-12 days and just depends on the person. I tend to feel blot and digestive issues around that time in my cycle too!

K8Tee · 01/05/2021 07:45

Morning ladies. Just my daily test update - 11dpo bfn. I feel like I'm coming down with something and still have period type mild pains. Only have 1 test left so might hold on to it now in case af doesn't come ( lol I have no self control). We are off to a family farm park today so that will take my mind off it for a bit :) hope you are all well and have a lovely day. Ps was just wondering where everyone is from? I'm Nottingham xxx

Daisyrobin123 · 01/05/2021 08:03

@K8Tee Sorry to hear about your BFN 😞 theres still some hope though it could still be told early! I'm Nottingham too 🙂 x

K8Tee · 01/05/2021 08:24

Thanks holding onto the it could be too early hope. Ahhh no way, small world! X

@K8Tee oh no! But as you said still a chance so I'd save the last test!

I'm based in Stafford.

Joining the “lucky thread” from Sydney (hubby born and raised in Nottingham!)
Ttc #2, 8+months TTC, CP in March
11dpo and have been spotting for a few days ... but this has started happening every month for 6 months so unlikely IB 🤷🏼‍♀️ Just FX it stops and AF doesn’t show in Wednesday! Trying to hold off until I’m late to test but it’s so hard!!!

Tangfastic91 · 01/05/2021 12:52

Sorry to hear @K8Tee, but not out yet!
Northampton here :)

dogmom0930 · 01/05/2021 13:46

Sorry about your BFN @K8Tee! I started spotting last night and wondering if AF is about to make an early appearance. So, will test if AF doesn’t show her face! I’m from Minnesota in the US 😊

dogmom0930 · 01/05/2021 18:56

@Laurenat85 That’s kind of where I’m at with a CP to end March too. Sorry that you had to go through that!

How are you doing @JuniperAndTonic?

JuniperAndTonic · 01/05/2021 20:19

Hi @dogmom0930 thanks for checking in - sorry I’ve been quiet today! BFN again this morning. But I also woke up feeling really ill, had a high temperature so had to call in sick for work and get a Covid swab! I don’t think it’s Covid but isolating until I get the result which sucks! Although we did get a takeaway which cheered me up and I feel better this evening!! Hope AF doesn’t appear for you!!

Sorry to hear you’re still getting BFNs too @K8Tee Hope you’ve had a good day! I’m from Milton Keynes ☺️

Welcome @Laurenat85! It’s so hard to resist testing isn’t it! Sorry to hear about your chemical, hope you get a BFP soon and it’s a sticky one!!

K8Tee · 01/05/2021 20:52

Ah we are from all over the place then! :)

Hope you feel better soon @JuniperAndTonic

dogmom0930 · 01/05/2021 20:52

Thanks @JuniperAndTonic! Looking forward to just knowing. I feel like I can think of nothing else today and need to distract myself as only time will tell 😜 Hope your Covid test comes back negative!!

How is everyone doing today?

I'm 12DPO now. Had quite a lot of cramping today which is worrying me a little bit. Tests are still positive and and I got a positive 1-2 weeks on the digital today so still holding out some hope, just crossing my fingers that the cramping isn't the start of something. AF would be due in two days, I really hope she stays away 🤞

@JuniperAndTonic sorry to hear you're not too well - takeaway always makes things better though! Fingers crossed for a quick recovery.

@K8Tee still time to get your BFP, sending you all the baby dust 🥰

dogmom0930 · 01/05/2021 22:29

@IzzT Fingers crossed that AF stays away for you and that the wait doesn’t stress you out too much!

K8Tee · 01/05/2021 23:04

@IzzT fingers crossed for no AF! I'm sure it will be fine I've read that some cramping is normal but you'll no doubt feel better once your period due date has passed.

I only have 1 more test left so will use that tomorrow morning and just wait for af then I think as I'm due on in 2/3 days anyway now. X

JuniperAndTonic · 02/05/2021 10:28

Morning ladies! Feeling much better today, my Covid swab was negative thank goodness (a BFN I was happy to see 🤣). Didn’t bother testing this morning abs it’s been BFN the last 3 days. AF is due tomorrow so I’ll wait and see if it starts and if not then I’ll test again. Feeling much more chilled about it all now - I’ll probably be going crazy again in the next 2WW though 🤣

Hope you’re feeling better today @IzzT, I’ve heard cramping can be normal in early pregnancy so hopefully it’s all okay and the fact your tests are still positive is a good sign!

K8Tee · 02/05/2021 11:05

Glad you are feeling better @JuniperAndTonic and got a negative covid test. 12dpo here too and a negative test. Still feeling very periody so think she's on her ugly way. Oh well on to month 5 of trying unless we have any late double lines lol xx

Missmcmonkeymcbean · 02/05/2021 11:24

Had been feeling cramps since 3po but got AF today and now totally understand when other posts say that the body LIES! 😂😞 Onto the next cycle...

K8Tee · 02/05/2021 11:42

Sorry @Missmcmonkeymcbean, its true I've had so many symptoms every month and it's all bee a big fat trick lol. Our time will come. The longer it takes me the closer it gets to our wedding day, was hoping to have around a year to get back in shape but currently have 9 months lol 😆 we will get there when the time is right :) xx
