TTC TWW November 2021

[winkles23]

Hi 👋🏻 anyone else in the TWW?

Think you're all going to think I'm a mad woman here. But I had a weird sensation yesterday and still have it today. A low down feeling in my lower abdomen. Not cramping but a "heavy" feeling. Similar to when I'm a few days into my period. Yesterday it was really noticeable when walking- every step on that side. Obviously google says it could be implantation cramps.

I know in my sensible head not to get hopes up or read into it too much but I seriously can't help but hope! About 5d PO now.

@kizzy97 Sunday for me 🤞 I feel like this has been the longest TWW!

@Ballygowenwater

BFN Today at 10DPO. Feeling extremely nauseous last night and this morning but think it must be a coincidence 🤷‍♀️

Strange with the nausea - I think 10d PO is still early to test? And as others have said you're not out the race yet until AF arrives. How is the spotting?

Sorry @Ballygowenwater ... got that wrong with the spotting g - ignore me!

@mightbeyesmightbeno that’s not crazy, that’s how I knew with my first. We weren’t trying (I’m still not quite sure what happened but I think I must have skipped a pill or something), and I wasn’t keeping track of my cycles at all. But woke up one morning and had a strange heaviness to my womb and my skin had turned to shit basically overnight. Took a test and there it was. Based on a scan I got at 7 weeks that positive test was only about 8DPO give or take.

@Ballygowenwater yes my skin has been much more spotty than normal! Oh my gosh, I'm getting excited now. But don't want to get hopes up still! Will try to hold out testing until Monday as today would be too early for sure.

Wow about your first - that must have been a bit of a shock!

Morning everyone! Some decent line progression up at 11dpo... starting to get hopeful woohoo, going to hold out until 14dpo now and hope for the best! Xx

Thats a very strong line @Rachae for 11dpo! Got a BFN this morning at 9dpo so going to wait until 11dpo and test again. xx

Amazing progress @Rachae !! Congrats!

@jackfruit10 @mightbeyesmightbeno thank you!! Most clear I've ever got across 5 pregnancies :-) (No baby yet but here's hoping this one sticks!)

@beckybabyx Thank you! If it helps, mine was bfn at 9dpo xx

Gosh @Rachae what a journey you've already been on! Have you told your partner?

@mightbeyesmightbeno ahh it's been rough! Hoping this one's the last hurdle. :-) Ohh yes, we both watch the lines develop together lol! I tell a few close friends/ family each time too... helps if the worst happens to have a support network.

Btw I saw your post on 'heavy feeling' below... that's always my first sign ;-) xx

@Rachae that's makes me a bit excited - thanks!

Lovely that you watch the lines develop together! Keeping everything crossed for you xx

@Rachae that looks very promising! Keeping everything crossed for you xx

Thanks @Rachae that definitely makes me feel better and have a little hope!
I totally agree regarding telling close friends and family in the early stages, I'd definitely need their support if the worst were to happen xx

Went to get my wisdom tooth removed today, ended up having to go under general anaesthetic, they did a test before hand and bfn, not surprising as only 6dpo and impossible to get a positive then but still stung a little bit

@Rachae - that's a great line! Wishing you all the best! :)

Congrats @Rachae!

I tested today (10/11dpo) and BFN. Cramping for a few days but that’s gone and I’ve been feeling quite nauseous in the mornings so I was hopeful. But not feeling too broken up about it at least. No idea why I’m so bloody nauseous though.

I had a steady smiley 2 days ago, so I think that means I ovulated yesterday, does it? So 1dpo?

Hi all..trying to conceive #2 since Aug..i am 35 now..does any1 have success stories for this age group? I am really feeling the pressure..i am 8dpo..no symptons yet..i can't remember with my first as i didn't really track..gd luck everyone xmi g

Same! Do you think you’ll test again or wait for your period? The latest my period would be here is weds so trying to hold out but still so far away!

Another BFN this morning and feeling very much like my period is going to start imminently.

I'm going to wait until next Saturday or Sunday to test, af is due on the Saturday (think it helps I don't have the money atm to buy a load of tests 😂) still got sore boobs even though the cramping has mostly gone but comes back occasionally, torn between getting my hopes up and being realistic!

Same as you age wise, I don't know why it is playing on my mind but I'm convinced that it will be harder this time round!
