May TWW

[ReginaaPhalange]

Hello all. Thought I'd make a thread for all of us in the TWW for May!

I'm 2dpo today and ttc first child! Would love to chat with those in the same boat and support each other through the loooonggg TWW 🤣

@Time2Adult have you took a test? It's possible
For your LH levels to be high if you are pregnant triggering "peak" readings xx

My boobs are starting to kill now. But I always get this a couple days before period so I don't know. Xx

What’s the earliest anyone tests? I really want to hold off until Monday but each day gets harder 😂

@AllyCat31 honestly
I tested at 7DPO which was absolutely ridiculous on my behalf really but I was getting so many twinges and feelings down below I was like hmmm! AF is due on Monday, so I think I'm gonna try and honestly hold off until then 😂🙈 xx

@AllyCat31

What’s the earliest anyone tests? I really want to hold off until Monday but each day gets harder 😂

I'm out of tests actually, so I'm thinking if I don't buy them until Sunday afternoon shop or even Monday on my way back from work if AF hasn't came then I won't be tempted 😂😂

@carlsi6 I’m due Monday too! Well one app says Monday, the other Thursday. I had a shorter luteal phase last cycle which has thrown everything off. I’m gonna try my best to hold off. All I’ve got is cheapies and a couple of the clear blue with weeks (ready for IF we get a BPP just to have a nicer test to show OH) I don’t have any FRER and I think the earliest I can get any is Monday but I’m trying to hold of ordering them 😂

@AllyCat31 I'm the same. My LP is about 10/11 days I think more likely 10, I've been worried about that but read a lot in the last day of stories saying people have conceived fine. How many DPO are you? I'm 8/9 today can't be exactly sure of the day I ovulated

My god I'm getting hit by that wave of nausea again! I'm literally praying so hard right now 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 xxx

@carlsi6 I haven't, I actually only thought about that last night. Although the ovulation strips went back down on Monday/Tuesday. I will hold off as I could just be coming down with something and I don't want to get my hopes up. I am due on a week on Tuesday.
Fingers crossed for you & @AllyCat31 this week! X

I am 9DPO as of this morning. In bed now needing to go pee and wondering if I should just do a cheapy. It’ll be a BFN but then I can wait till Monday to do another. I know when I ovulated @carlsi6 pretty accurately as I’ve been BBT and my chart was so clear this cycle. My LP is normally 15 but last cycle was only 10/11. I got exciting thinking it could be implantation and it was just ugly AF 😂 thanks @Time2Adult

Yep, BFN haha don’t know why I would expect anything else. It was so white 😂

@carlsi6 how are you feeling today?

I am now 6dpo (just dependent on flo app and pain in ovaries that day so dont think its far out).

Im experiencing a feeling a ‘heaviness’ low down in my tummy off and on and a feeling in my boobs but not much else. Yesterday and this morning I have had creamy discharge and of course a google of that has told me this is a sign of ovulation, oncoming period or pregnancy so that was alot of help😂

All these symptoms could well be my period which is due not this Monday but next. I am only 6 months pill free after 12 years so still learning about my actual cycle!

@AllyCat31 haha I'm 9DPO too also. I'm not going to test til Monday I've made my mind up!

@CTMcG I was feeling very sickly last night, I feel absolutely fine although I've JUST woke up now nearly 10am which is not like me 🤔🤔 I'm normally up 7/8! I just have a feeling of heaviness too down below and still have trapped wind. I have a pain in my lower back but it just feels like AF is coming so it's so conflicting. I guess I'll know in a couple days xxx

So I've just been to the loo and I've got a bit of brown & pink blood / discharge. I can't distinguish whether it's AF or not. If it is it's 2 days early so I'm a bit bummed. But I've literally been on the dot every day so far. It could be implantation but I'm not sure I guess I'll find out during the day how heavy it gets xx

Fingers crossed it’s not AF @carlsi6
We’ve sold our flat now so no more distractions from the TWW. I’m really gonna struggle now till Monday 😩

@AllyCat31 I really
Hope not. I'm not getting AF cramps as such just a really dull ache in my Lower back and like a stabbing pain in the right side. I just know it's going to be full flow by the end of the day though so l need to get over it!!

It's so hard taking your mind of it isn't it? Find a series on Netflix & binge or take yourself shopping 🤣 xxx

@AllyCat31 AF has arrived. I honestly could cry. It's 2 days early aswell so I don't know what's going on, it's made my cycle this month literally 24 days which normally it's 26. Going to have to watch it going forward xx

I'm so sorry to hear lovely :(
Any chance it could be IB?

@MrsTwentyNine I honestly thought so at first as it was so light for a few hours I was thinking it really was. Then it turned to bright red blood so I don't think so if I'm honest xx

Oh what @carlsi6 are you sure? I’ve heard implantation can be as heavy as a period but only last a day. I’m so sorry if it is. If it is, have all the wine and chocolate. Sending love

@AllyCat31 I guess we will see! It's not heavy enough yet to be on the pad which is interesting. But it is deffo red blood. I suppose if it stops or only lasts a day or two there's chance, I'll keep everything crossed but I'm not hopeful! Will keep you guys updated xx

@AllyCat31 you could honestly be right. I've put a liner on it's that light it's not even
Touching it. It's a reddish pinkish colour when I'm wiping. Absolutely no cramp whatsoever just a really sharp pinching pain on the right! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 xxx

Fingers crossed it stops soon. If you’re normally like clockwork then it just doesn’t make sense @carlsi6
No sign of AF for me and managed to distract myself so far today with a long walk, podcasts and then had a mid afternoon bath and a nap haha no symptoms today at all which I’m just gonna take as not a bad sign

@AllyCat31 I agree! I'm just going to see how it goes by tomorrow if it's not got heavier or stops then it's deffo suss. By day 2 I know my period is normally heavy enough to cover a pad so we will see.

Exactly! Keep your mind occupied it's the best way. I've got everything crossed for you lovely xxx

Woke up just now with cramping and my temp has taken a huge dip. Expecting AF now which if she comes today I only made it to 9DPO and I’ll be pissed off/worried. Before TTC my LP was 14/13 days every month. Now the first 2 TTC have been 10 & 9. Wtf?

@AllyCat31 exactly what happened to me this month; I only made it to 9DPO too. Hopefully she won't come for another couple days for you 😒 mind I've heard some people say temp also drops before implantation.

So I've woke up this morning, still not bled enough for it to even touch the pad. When I wiped there was quite a bit there and it's
Much darker than yesterday so I honestly don't know. It's no where as heavy as normal, I guess the only thing I can do is test when it stops and I'll know xx

@carlsi6 really hoping yours doesn’t get heavier. For me, this cramping is 100% period pain. I had a twinge of it last night and when I woke up I just knew.
Oh well, what can you do but just start again and hope it works next time. Hope everyone else has better luck
