TWW - 7/8th May

[ClarenceTheCat]

New to the TWW - with my first it was a semi unplanned pregnancy so didn't experience this!
Anybody else around a similar time? (I think I'm around 5 dpo at the moment)
This is my second cycle but didn't properly go for it last month. Counting down the days until I can test!

Thanks @Bundaberg84 - he is a wise man.

I am going to try and resist testing again for a couple of days / a week or so and hope it's darker then... I'm trying to reassure myself that the digital test said pregnant within 30 seconds so there must still be a decent amount of hcg in me. I'd forgotten how much there is to worry about in the first few weeks of pregnancy.

@L1ttleb1t the stop peeing on things really made me laugh lol

Honestly if your digital said + you'll be absolutely fine. Just try and relax and take it easy I'm sure everything will be fine! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

So many lovely positives girls; you've given me good vibes for next month xxx

@L1ttleb1t thank you!! I hope we all have healthy pregnancies and that the first few weeks go smoothly

I have been so bloated and (sorry tmi) gassy and now constipated which has been fun at workno nausea so far though

You know what's so odd, I'm still a bit weirded out about my period. 2 days early and lasted for only 3 days. 2 of which I'd say I would of said was deffo AF but no where heavy enough as usual. Took a test just to rule out and it's a BFN so on to the next! Xx

I'm sorry AF is messing you around - it's much easier if you have a normal AF and can just move on to the next cycle.

I had a similar AF in Jan after starting Couch to 5K - I realised that it was causing some physiological stress for my body that was messing with my hormones and cycle, so I stopped! I started early... then stopped... then started again... went on for 9 days and was a right faff.

My next AF was normal. You've not started anything like that have you?

[carlsi6]

@L1ttleb1t no but I've been quite stressed the last week with returning to work etc so it could be that!! We will see how this goes xx

[L1ttleb1t]

@carlsi6 Well I guess that could do it. Or it's just a blip :)

Hi everyone!
Congratulations to all the BFPs 💕

How are you @carlsi6
Any advancement or back to tracking with OPK?

I'm having a really weird one. I had positive OPKs on Sunday and Monday AM.
Did a HCG this morning because I have issues, 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ and got this. It came up so quickly. But after last month don't think it's anything! I'm going crazy for sure.

Morning @ClarenceTheCat ! I'm kind of just taking it easy this month. God myself so worked up last month. Just going to see how it goes, I think I'll be ovulating in the next few days! Xx
