Anyone else on TTW. I'd love cycle buddies!

I'm on fertile week and don't do opks regularly but just wanting to make new friends who are in the same boat as me!💜

@ExTriTrying aw congrats hun! Happy for you, hopefully a sticky bean and you have a wonderful pregnancy x

ExTriTrying · 04/11/2021 15:26

@HRHXO Thank you! It doesn't quite feel real yet - just letting it sink in! Really hope it sticks, we're trying to save excitement til at least the first scan (8 weeks! that's forever!)

Peauela · 04/11/2021 16:31

@ExTriTrying congratulations! So exciting ❤️ wishing you a very healthy pregnancy and baby ❤️

Hi All :)

i hope you don't mind me joining, i signed up to mums net today, me and my husband have been trying for around 7 months now, 2 months back i was 10 days late on my period (normally regular) and was so exited to do a test in the morning but then i came on! and since then my chilled out approach is completely gone haha.

so im now 12 DPO i did a cheap test from the pharmacy on my lunch today and it was negative so feel a bit disheartened as have been having symptoms the past week one being one dull achy breast, going randomly light headed and feeling sick, i have ordered some clear blue digitals early tests to arrive tomorrow, but im scared of the 'not pregnant' shall i get some more cheap ones to do first and if so have you any recommendations :) and does it make a difference that the test i did today wasn't an early detection one? (I'm due on my period sunday)

sorry for the long message - thank you :))))) xx

@ExTriTrying congratulations I'm happy for you💜

@hol92 I'd leave it a few days closer to your AF due date. I'm around same time as you and got negatives still so I'm a bit disheartened x

hol92 · 04/11/2021 19:38

@apwilso I don't think I will test until my AF due date now, maybe the day before, just because I can't wait 🙈 @ExTriTrying congratulations! Wishing you all the best 🥰 x

apwilso · 04/11/2021 19:39

@hol92 I don't know I suggested that like I haven't tested everyday since 10dpo🤣🤣

hol92 · 04/11/2021 19:41

@apwilso it's so hard not too 🙈 I took two different brands today just Incase 🙈😂😂

HRHXO · 04/11/2021 21:05

@hol92 ahh I'm exactly the same. I'm 12dpo and I tests 8,9 and 11dpo all negative lol so I'm waiting to test day AF due which is Saturday. Genuinely thought I was pregnant, had the same symptoms as you but now I'm writing myself off this month...

apwilso · 04/11/2021 21:22

@HRHXO I know. We've got each other no matter what to rant to! I'm now a day late and don't know what to think!

@hol92 honestly same! Hopefully we get our positive

@hol92 welcome! I use easy@home ovulation and pregnancy test, I bought a box of 100 ovu and 25 pregnancy tests for I think about £30 off Amazon which I thought was great. I think they sell pregnancy tests only too.

@apwilso @HRHXO I'm 6DPO and not gonna lie I am already tempted to test 😂 especially that my ovulation was delayed so I'm actually CD28 already (normally 31 day cycles but this month will be way longer). But I promised myself I won't test before 14DPO (unless period comes sooner) so we'll see if I manage 😂

ExTriTrying · 04/11/2021 22:28

Thanks for all the congrats all! Skipped a work/social event this eve... First of many I expect! Decided in terms of "excuses" to... just not give one. Turns out just saying no is quite easy 😂

Good luck with tests in next few days, sending baby dust!

HRHXO · 05/11/2021 08:42

Morning all, 13dpo here and AF due tomorrow. I feel a little bit crampy and irritable today so think AF may show very soon. Really disappointed but we shall see!

hol92 · 05/11/2021 08:49

@HRHXO I literally just took a test and then wiped... AF is here.. feeling really disappointed because I really felt different, then it makes me question why I'm so wrong! X

HRHXO · 05/11/2021 10:23

Tested using second morning wee as I'm just so impatient and it's negative. Going to wait for AF to show now 😔

apwilso · 05/11/2021 21:26

Negative for me also. 2 days late on CD35😣😣

Peauela · 05/11/2021 21:45

Ohhhh no sorry to hear that girls ☹️

apwilso · 06/11/2021 07:21

I don't know what mine is then I'm normally on the dot every month. About 3 month ago I had a 41 day long cycle which is abnormal for me. So I reckon it's just mugging me off and doing that about. No signs or anything just woken up to now having TMI a quick dash toilet trip. Has some weird symptoms and actually at this point surprised I haven't got a positive but I'll just have to wait it out.

How's everyone else feeling

mrswoody10 · 06/11/2021 15:53

AF arrived in the early hours which is 3 days late for me and I never am! Bit cruel but there we go. At least having a couple of drinks tonight and then we go again haha! Good luck to everyone else

Peauela · 06/11/2021 15:54

Morning all.
Sorry to hear about AF.

I'm 8DPO today and I'm starting to want to test but I will try to hold off as long as I can 😂

HRHXO · 06/11/2021 17:04

Hi all! 14dpo today, af due, wasn't going to test but partner thought I should and it was bfn! No sign of af though! Never usually late either 😕

apwilso · 06/11/2021 20:41

That's so weird for us all @HRHXO @mrswoody10 all late!! Sorry to hear Mrs Woody but least you can jump back on the trying train. Are you staying in this thread?

@HRHXO I'm the same as you 3 days late CD 36 all negatives. No sign of anything now. Had some minor cramping nothing like PMS. Just wanna know at this point!

@Peauela oh it's so tempting!😂😂

OP posts:
Peauela · 06/11/2021 21:05

Another thing to add from me which I also posted in a different thread is that I promised myself I won't symptom spot too much this cycle because it's just draining but if someone was to ask me how I've been feeling I would say extremely tired and I have a weird tingling sensation in my lower stomach. Also have quite a good bit of CM at 8DPO which never happens to me past OVU, I'm usually pretty dry. Sorry if TMI 😅

I decided that I'm going for some tests in January if we don't succeed by then. We have only been trying for 4 months but if something was off I would rather know sooner than later.

apwilso · 06/11/2021 22:14

@Peauela I've been saying this about symptoms but then every month I question symptoms so just made some notes of it. We've just spoke about going for testing in the new year. We've been trying (kind of) for a year and it's been 6 months since my MMC. I do think with me and my boyfriend it's just timing as he works away but want to double check
