Hi all I am currently 1DPO.
Anyone else entering their TWW? Smile
or if you're further along in your cycle how many DPO are you and do you have any symptoms?
My period is due 20th of August.
Xx

@HopefulMaama thank you. This is our first time TTC so and beyond grateful but also overthinking everything 🤣

Laurie95 · 16/08/2021 14:52

@Silver31 welcome ! It is better having somewhere to talk about it I was the same we never told anyone we where TTC.

@wannabeamummysobad that’s good you have your app so soon and my early scan is for 5th Sep so I will now be counting down the days to that 😂

wannabeamummysobad · 16/08/2021 15:30

@Laurie95 we didn't tell anyone either. Will tell my mum later today- she's also a midwife so will be great to have her input.

My bestie is due in a few weeks and will tell her post early scan once I feel a tad more settled.

Now trying not to symptom spot and just be in our happy bubble x

[quote Aims1991]@BitchFace21 yeah will try Wednesday morning. Ordered more tests which I will get tomorrow so holding out and I will be 12dpo. What symptoms did you have [/quote]
Headaches every day since I ovulated feeling dizzy, weird taste in my mouth apart from that..

I'm alright! I suffer with PMS really bad and Iv had none of that! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@BitchFace21 hopefully but I don't build my hopes up! My DH said he's convinced I am coz I look different 🤣🤣🤣

Laurie95 · 16/08/2021 20:14

@BitchFace21 aww amazing congratulations !! Is that you 11DPO now I think your the exact same amount of days as me.

SisterA · 16/08/2021 20:20

@BitchFace21 woweeee congrats! Exciting times ahead!

Teaandcrumpets95 · 16/08/2021 22:08

@BitchFace21 woooo! Congrats girl! Xx

Teaandcrumpets95 · 16/08/2021 22:13

@SisterA I'm using the clear blue digital opk kit which was very useful as I ovulated a week later than my app predicted (granted the never ending flashing smileys were very annoying before hitting peak 😂) x

louise1997 · 17/08/2021 05:51

hi everyone. 11 DPO at the moment, I took a test just using first morning urine and it's a BFN for me 😞 feeling a bit gutted but I guess next month I'll just have to track ovulation properly using OPK's Cos I only went off my app this month 😔

Stay positive! It will happen! I know it's so hard 😭 use the clear blue ovulation tests the purple ones not the pink do the deed when you get a solid smiley face (2 days) and it will maximise your chances we done nothing different Iv done this since January and it's finally worked.. it's so hard stay strong it will happen 🌷🌷

Hey girl.. I am praying for you ❤️

I am 8DPO today and I've had a lot of symptoms over the past week.. maybe my body is just sensitive or maybe it's my brain telling me I'm pregnant, either way there is a lot to look out for.

I have been hit with a hightened sense of taste and smell, bloating&cramping on 6&7 DPO. very painful sex at 7DPO. Intermittent runny nose, frequent urination (especially at nighttime), vivid dreams and sore nipples. Lastly, MOOD SWINGS GALORE. I cried a couple days ago because I wanted ice lollies and we didn't have any. I keep crying for random, silly reasons. I am an emotional person who cries almost daily anyway but this is intense 🤣.

I am yet to test but I get strips delivered today.

Keep me posted on your journey, hopefully a BFP is on the cards for both you and I 😬🙃☺️

Aims1991 · 17/08/2021 06:30

Well I woke up this morning expecting AF to be here but nothing, 11dpo now and technically AF was due 5 days ago if I didn't ov late🤷🏻‍♀️ but normally have 11 days luteal phase so hoping to test tomorrow morning 🤞🏼

Ems2021 · 17/08/2021 07:40

Well I think it's happening!

andpeggy1 · 17/08/2021 08:13

10DPO for me today, my back pains getting worse and my boobs even though they usually swell n feel a bit sore, are just off the chats painful and massive! Not noticed dark nipples though. I keep getting like fluttering dog cramp, I'm sure it's just AF gearing herself up. I'm still not going to test early cause I feel then like I'll second guess the answers. But god it's hard to hold out. Af due in 3 days so will see.....

Sorry it's not the result you wanted, maybe though it's too early to test for you? Maybe still wait n see if af turns up?
BitchFace21 · 17/08/2021 08:21

@Ems2021

Well I think it's happening!
Yay!!! Congratulations!!! How far DPO are you?!

Amazing news!!! 🌷🌷🌷🌷

Silver31 · 17/08/2021 08:26

@BitchFace21 and @Ems2021 congratulations ladies!! That's super exciting and lovely Smile

@Aims1991 keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞

Ems2021 · 17/08/2021 08:29

@BitchFace21 @Silver31 thank you!
It's an IVF baby, I am 8 days past a 5 day transfer, I think that's supposed to be 13dpo. I really felt like I knew it had worked from like 18 hours after transfer

Just at doctors now.. as I still don't believe it if I'm honest 😭😭 you wait that long for something when it happens you don't believe it xxxx

louise1997 · 17/08/2021 08:30

@BitchFace21 thank you. I've just ordered some cheap ovulation test strips off Amazon along with the purple clear blue smiley ones. Have never used them before so hopefully using them will help me & next month will be my month 🤞🏼 what day did you usually start tracking ovulation? I have a 28 day cycle xxx
