[quote CTMcG]@Chascha18 ohhhh! Trying not to get ahead of myself yet but definitely was unusual for me. Especially as i have been working out regularly the last 7 weeks so in fact i should feel fitter, not worse! Haha x[/quote]
Fingers crossed for you! X

LifesAnItch · 17/05/2021 20:34

Hey all!
Cautiously joining to hopefully see some BFPs!

8dpo today, AF due Sunday / Monday
@CTMcG we are day buddies lol!

TTC #2
I've got one DD who I had no problems, I have now had 4 losses - 3 chemicals and 1 MC and been TTC for a year.
Really hoping this is our month 🤞🏼

BebeBelle · 17/05/2021 22:45

Hi all, can i join you as well. I am about 8/9 dpo i think. I have very irregular cycles and I am not quite sure when I ovulated. I tested on Saturday and it was negative so I am trying to wait for another week. I am having some minor cramps so i'm just praying it's not AF.

Oh and this will actually be my 6 month since ttc#1 but I would say it is about cycle 3/4 for us due to irregular periods.Smile

CTMcG · 17/05/2021 22:48

@blackcurrantqueen ahh hello cycle buddy!! I have been off the pill since December, first cycle was 42 days, 2nd cycle was same and 3rd cycle was 34 days so af is due this time next week if it is another 34 day cycle but who knows!

This is my first cycle ttc#1 i am on cycle day 27 today and i have a feeling af may come before next week so cycles may be coming more regular! So sorry for your losses! It cant be easy. 1st cycle of ttc and i have been so up and down with am i pg or not! Time will tell!

Rowboatsmummy · 17/05/2021 22:59

Hi all can I jump on? I think I am 8dpo, took a test yesterday pm and have a line but not sure if just evap! @BebeBelle I also have v irregular periods. In the past I have gone months without af and I have 2 DC so keep hopeful :) anyway, test attached, could be 8dpo but not sure at all. Good luck to all xx

Anyone else 6/7dpo?
CTMcG · 18/05/2021 07:08

Ugh 9dpo today and i stupidly tested and got a bfn. I have to ensure there are no tests in the house until a missed period because a it is going to cost a fortune and b i am going to lose my mind!

Does anyone recommend any cheapies? Ive just been getting clear blue so far but il need to take a mortgage out if i keep buying them and using them early😅

blackcurrantqueen · 18/05/2021 07:43

@CTMcG I use the easy@home cheapies they aren't THE cheapest but they're a bit wider so easier to see in my opinion 💕

CTMcG · 18/05/2021 07:46

@blackcurrantqueen thank you! Still so new to this and already preparing for cycle 2! Im convinced i haven't got pg first cycle! X

Minnie296 · 18/05/2021 08:58

@CTMcG I get mine from eBay I think it's 20 for £2.19 or something I buy a pack each month to keep me going! 😂 x

CTMcG · 18/05/2021 09:44

@Minnie296 thank you! If im not lucky enough to already be pg, i need to get on ebay or i will be poor keeping this up! Lol xx

Minnie296 · 18/05/2021 12:09

@CTMcG exactly I use those and then if I do need to do a 'proper' test then I'll get out the clear blue! The cheapies just help with me POAS addiction. Xx

BebeBelle · 18/05/2021 17:01

@Rowboatsmummy awwh that really gives me so much hope. thanks for that.Smile. It's looking like it might be good for you with the line. Did you take another one today? Hopeful for you ..

@CTMcG I did the same and tested too early. I really was feeling every sort of symptom and i was hoping this might be the cycle. I have never wished my life away this much. I can't wait for the weekend to test again. Hope AF doesn't show up before then.

9/10 dpo - Symptoms for today are headache, and a very funny sensation in my boobs. I can't call it pain as such - it comes and goes, a bit of an ache but more inside (than the usual I read on hear of nipples and sides).Smile

@LifesAnItch - how did you get on with your test this morning?

Hopeful for all of us Smile

LifesAnItch · 18/05/2021 17:26

Hi @BebeBelle I didn't even get a squinter 🧐😂 I'm only 7dpo so knew I wouldn't, don't know why I bother..... just incase 🤪

I ordered some Easy@Home cheapies as heard they're slightly better than OneStep and they arrived today so I'll be having a test-a-thon over the next few days!

I didn't have any symptoms at all before getting my BFP with DS, only spotting 2 days after O and a sharp, stabbing pain in my left side that lasted a few second at 6dpo. I'm guessing that was implantation. I haven't had that this time tho (so far) x

Anyone else 6/7dpo?

Robss · 18/05/2021 17:38

Hiya, I’m 7dpo of our first month and very much overthinking everything, I did not think I would feel this anxious waiting. Had spotting on 5dpo and some light cramp but really it it could be nothing. Itching to try an early test but also know it’s most likely too early anyway.

Trinacham · 18/05/2021 17:42

4DPO here, 1st cycle trying! Now I know how hard the TWW feels, and it's only my first go..

Rowboatsmummy · 18/05/2021 19:30

@BebeBelle I did take an FRER today and convinced myself of a wee squinter but I honestly don't think proper line!
I'm only max 9dpo though so who knows 🙈 It is agony!
How are you finding the TWW

Oooo fingers crossed it really is there! I thought I would be good this month but @5dpo even my partner got a test out the cupboard for me to do 😂😂😂 think I'm rubbing off on him haha

Chascha18 · 18/05/2021 19:51

Sooo, today I'm 8dpo and the cramps are getting worse so af could be around the corner although my boobs are feeling heavier compared to the usual pre-period stuff 🤔

orchardmuma · 18/05/2021 21:10

@LifesAnItch i'm around 7/8 dpo and the wait is killing me! Its my first time ttc and not holding out for a bfp as that would be pretty flukey. Struggling to separate what could just be pms/ovulation symptoms vs pregnancy symptoms. Only came off my pill in April, so not felt ovulation symptoms for a long while to know what to expect

LifesAnItch · 18/05/2021 21:26

Hi @orchardmuma

I conceived first cycle with DS so you never know 🤞🏼I'm hoping for a repeat this time but not holding my breath as didn't manage to DTD as often as we should.

Are you using OPKs? I've never had any signs or symptoms of ovulation so would be lost without them. I also have PCOS.

When are you planning on testing? Best of luck to you! The TWW is agonising but also exciting 🤩 x

OP posts:
orchardmuma · 19/05/2021 07:07

Hi @LifesAnItch that makes me feel a lot more hopeful, thanks! I also have PCOS, was on yasmin, as the acne was extreme, but I’ve been doing fine since stopping. I am doing OPK’s yeah. I got a positive on 9th May, so I assume now I’m around 7/8 dpo.

I was thinking about getting some first response tests to test around 9/10dpo. I have HCG trip tests here but I’m not sure they’d pick anything up

FX for you 🤞🏼 Xx

CTMcG · 19/05/2021 07:13

I am now 10dpo (according to flo) or 8dpo (according to crying with pain last Tuesday) and i think i am out. Af not due to next week but this morning i woke up with dull back ache and lots of white cm (tmi). I know im not out to af shows but if i convince myself im not pregnant then am will be better than thinking im pregnant and being heartbroken when af comes. This TTC malarky is so mentally hard lol xx

Robss · 19/05/2021 07:57

@CTMcG Yes, I’m the same trying to not get my hopes up so it’s easier to just move on to the next cycle but even then I’m still finding myself overly invested. I wish I could just be one of those people that are like let’s just see what happens.

Mum233 · 19/05/2021 08:02

Can I join? AF due Monday. Stupidly did a test yesterday at around 6/7 days past ovulation and through there was a line but negative today so not sure. Arrrghh!
