I'm 2DPO today and hoping some of you will join this thread to keep us all sane 😆 it always feels like the longest wait doesn't it? I felt so emotional last night couldn't stop sobbing over the littlest of things, so not like me 😫 please tell me I'm not alone! I feel like a zombie this morning from struggling to get to sleep.

Hopefully we can all keep ourselves busy during this time 🥰

Sending lots of baby dust to those that join in 🤞

Hello @allthingssparkly , I am 2 dpo today as well. Hoping the week goes very quickly and I don't get too wrapped up in symptom spotting! I have a short luteal phase so should know whether I am out by 9dpo.
Fingers crossed for us both!

bekloi · 31/08/2021 08:27

I am 4dpo today 🙌🙌
Implant got removed in July had a period 15th this month which my app says very fertile 28th & ovulation so did the deed now just a waiting game as iv heard people get caught quickly after implant removal but also taken some a while

applesandbananays · 31/08/2021 09:45

Hi, I'm 2dpo today as well. When I got pregnant with my first I found out 9dpo so hoping I'll know by then although I'm not very hopeful this time round. I know I'm going to be a nightmare and constantly symptom spot! 😩

@LondonladyTTC
@bekloi
@applesandbananays

Good luck to all of you, let's hope it flys by for us 🤞

I'm trying not to even think about symptom spotting as most can be so similar to AF symptoms can't they so it can be so mind boggling as to whether it's pregnancy or AF related 😫

When are you all going to test? I really want to hold out till as close to AF due date as possible we shall see! I have my FRER tests waiting 🤭

Bundaberg84 · 31/08/2021 10:32

I'm 1dpo, ready for the games to begin :)

applesandbananays · 31/08/2021 10:36

@allthingssparkly I've got a load of cheap tests so I'll probably start testing at the weekend even though I know they'll be negative ha but I'll use my frer on Monday. When I last got pregnant I had increased white milky cm from 4dpo so I'm going to keep my eye out for that. Do you have any cheap tests as well?

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 10:42

@applesandbananays I haven't got any of the cheapy tests, I was just going to stick with the FRER and if it's positive then get a clear blue digital too!

If I get the cheapy ones I'll end up testing far to frequently 😆😆

I got pregnant so quick with my two current children there was no ttc as such! & I never tracked my ovulation either whereas this time round I have so I guess it's all a waiting game 🙈

OP posts:
Bundaberg84 · 31/08/2021 10:45

@allthingssparkly I'm going to hold out as long as possible as well. I can't deal with early negatives very well. Don't get me wrong, I can handle being not pregnant, but I need a clear answer. Not dealing with a BFN that might turn into a BFP in a day or two.

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 10:53

@Bundaberg84 yes me either, it plays on my mind far too much!

Hopefully we all get our bfp soon 🤞

So I have taken another ovulation test this morning and I have got two very strong lines, on the pre mom app I upload my tests to it says its a high reading, why could this be? I ovulated on the 29th.

I will attach a picture of my tests.

@allthingssparkly ha yea probably best not to have cheapies on hand in that case. How long have you been trying for? This is my first cycle for baby #2

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 11:02

@applesandbananays it's it's 2nd cycle trying for baby no 3 🥰

OP posts:
applesandbananays · 31/08/2021 11:26

@allthingssparkly ooh exciting! Can you remember any symptoms you had early on from you're last 2 pregnancies?

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 11:36

@applesandbananays the only thing I can remember early symptoms wise from my 2nd pregnancy was feeling sick and my ds is nearly 7. I don't remember any early symptoms with my first 🙈

Elsie2021 · 31/08/2021 11:56

Can I join? 1dpo today! The dread TWW begins! TTC is just a whole lot of waiting around, isn’t it 😂

Bit about me… I am 3rd cycle TTC my first after a MMC in March discovered at our 12 week scan.

I had a chemical last month so I feel like I’m already out this month cause we wouldn’t catch 2 months in a row? But we shall see!!

Baby dust to everyone!! Let’s hope the next two weeks go quick.

Elsie2021 · 31/08/2021 12:19

@allthingssparkly do you track via BBT? If not, you can’t be sure your body managed to ovulate after your surge. Keep DTD and taking OPK and see what happens over the next few days.

It could also be that the OPKs from CD 19 and 20 should have been stronger but urine diluation and taking it at different times of day effected it so it is just be on its way down from your peak on CD18 (rather than actually rising again). If that makes sense?

Bundaberg84 · 31/08/2021 12:20

I'm TTC #1, started in January and got pregnant immediately but ended in a chemical. Took a bit of a break, and then got pregnant again in May, but it ended up being an ectopic. So I'm ready again, but I only have one tube left - let's see how that works out.
@Elsie2021 sorry about your loss! My friend got pregnant in the very next cycle after her chemical, so it's definitely possible.

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 12:29

@Elsie2021 I don't track via BBT although I probably should as its more accurate!

Tracking ovulation is new to me so still getting my head around it all. I will test again later today and continue to track my ovulation just to see if things change.

Me and my partner have been dtd frequently this month and around my fertile window/peak. I suppose its just a waiting game now 🙈

OP posts:
Elsie2021 · 31/08/2021 14:11

@allthingssparkly TTC real is a mind f* and our bodies sure can troll us!!

If I’m doubt, keep DTD!

allthingssparkly · 31/08/2021 14:27

@Elsie2021It really is!

I have just done another ovulation test and it's now reading as a 'low' result.

Usually my cycles are 28 days long and my lmp was 11 to 15th August so I'm just trying to hold out to see what happens.

northernlola · 31/08/2021 16:44

I'll join too!! I'm 1dpo today I think. TTC #2, I already have a 3 year old who was successfully conceived using SMEP so been doing that again (DTD a lot more than we usually would!!)

Bundaberg84 · 31/08/2021 20:53

i feel you @northernlola - I'm 1dpo as well and we did SMEP and I'm over it 😆 not that I don't enjoy the intimacy but I'm sore!

RAP08 · 31/08/2021 20:57

I'm on 6dpo. TTC for baby numero uno! DTD CD6/8/11/12/13/15 but actually had my peak OPK on CD15 so might have missed the boat this time. But it's just our first cycle so we are finding our grove! How's everyone else doing?x

Elsie2021 · 01/09/2021 08:17

I don’t think you missed the boat at all @RAP08. If your peak was CD15, you probably ovulated CD 16 or 17. So those swimmers from the 15, 13 and possibly even 12 would have been right there waiting!

Bundaberg84 · 01/09/2021 08:21

@RAP08 I think I'm similar. DTD CD11, 13, 15, 16, 17 and 18 and had peak CD18. Too tired to continue after that ;)
