6dpo - the wait is long!

Hello everyone.Smile I am new here and going insane with the wait. Currently 6dpo and this is our second cycle TTC! This time we used ovulation tracking so I'm trying to say positive.

Just wondering if anyone was around 6dpo and we could go through the wait together!! Also, has anyone experienced symptoms by this point? I feel the same as I always do :(

Hiya 👋🏻 I am in the same position as you - 5dpo, TTC first baby and on cycle 2. I have just been using tracking apps instead of ovulation tests for now 😊

Cycle 1 I drove myself a bit mad symptom spotting and testing from about 5dpo which didn’t help add to the anxiety! Trying to be calmer this cycle 🙈

No symptoms yet I don’t think 😊

Fingers crossed for us! Do you test early or wait to see if AF arrives? 😀

Ahhh yay!!! Best of luck with this cycle!! Please keep me updated!

I really want to test early again but I am driving myself mad so I'm going to try and hold off til about 12dpo (although I'll probably end up doing one in two days haha). What about you? Xx

Sending lots of baby dust your way - hopefully they are good signs! I had a bit of nausea tonight but I think that's just anxietyConfused! Xx

Sending baby dust your way too.
Cramps are so intense tonight.
Just want to know either way.

Will do - you too! It’s so nice to have people to chat to about it 😀

I think I am going to do a first response on Sunday at 9dpo - Sunday seems like a nice day to test before a new week haha

Amester21 · 19/08/2021 09:53

westonx do you have any symptoms?

Hey, I have been TTC since March and am currently 8dpo. I am also going insane with the wait! I actually took a FRER this morning and thought I could see the faintest line but have been having terrible indents with these tests that I am not hopeful! I have told myself to wait until Saturday to do another test but I know I will definitely end up doing another one tomorrow 😂

Good luck to everyone!

ninadust · 19/08/2021 10:39

Guys I just tested 7dpo and there's definitely a line!!!! Now I'm going insane. Surely it's way too early?? Or a fault test? AHHH!!!!

Do one tomorrow morning! I thought I was 7dpo but I must have been 9/10. Did two clear digitals and both came back as pregnant. Let me know how you get on! Xx

@ninadust Congratulations! I’m also in my second month of trying to conceive and just at the waiting part now with my period due around 31st August (I think!) after being on the mini pill for years I’m busy tracking everything on an app and have used an ovulation kit to track fertile days, this is all new to me! Lovely to hear your news x

dogmum02 · 19/08/2021 16:20

@ninadust that is amazing news, congratulations!! I actually think I may only be 7dpo. I had 2 days of positive OPKs so was counting from the first day - but I think I should be counting from the second! I am definitely a POAS addict so will definitely be testing again tomorrow 😂
