*The TWW States* 😬😂…. Here for positive vibes as we try to create new lives 👶🍼🤞… (Ttc #1 and cycle 1 continued)

Hello!

Continuation of our last thread…

All of us TTC and in different cycles and stages of our journey.

Helping eachother through the TWW, through the confusing days of OPK/BBT testing and charts, through all of the symptom spotting, the dreaded arrival of AF and the BFP announcements! 😊✨

January was a very lucky month for some who got their BFP and some of us are ready to make February our month!

With giggles and lots of support along the way.

Welcome!

@RMS0209 and @Newbiemg
thank you! I'm ok. It still feels surreal as I've been ttc for 12+ months and it's the first time that during the tww I know for a fact there's an embryo in my body! Keeping my hopes up BUT also trying to manage my expectations in case it's a no

@SMD16 wishing you the best for tomorrow!

@Pops100 fingers crossed for the 5th for both of us! Sending all my best wishes!

Hello @PinkButtercups welcome
I think AF is due for me on 2nd of March too but not sure if my app is accurate. How many DPO are you? Could be too early to test yet. I’d wait a couple more days and try again. Sending lots of luck ✨

@Pei86 Keeping everything crossed for you 🤞🏼✨

Thank you. DPO do you count that from the first day of ovulation or the very end? Sorry I sound stupid.

Hi @PinkButtercups welcome!

I'd wait a few more days and test if I were you, sending you lots of luck.
Welcome to the gang.. these ladies are fabulous! keeping me calm during the wonderful TWW :) x

@PinkButtercups are you tracking your ovulation? its normally 1 day after your "peak" x

Deffo not stupid! It’s all so confusing.

Do you use opks to see when your LH surge is? If you do then most people count 1DPO as the day after your peak opk. If you’re going by an app then 1DPO is the day after the day it’s says you ovulated

@PinkButtercups If you don’t know what DPO First response tests usually only give a bfp 6 days before AF is due at the earliest so I would say do another test Thursday or Friday very earliest. The weekend would even be better so it’s not faint. Good luck! 😊✨

Good morning ladies, I’ve actually read through all 30 pages of this thread does that made me weird 🤣. I am in a few threads mainly relating to be ttc at an older age. I am 42. I want to join as this thread seems very active and very friendly ☺️

Hi @Maybebaby7
Ha ha I bet those 30 pages of threads kept you busy for a little while!

Welcome to the gang.
How are you?
Tell us your story x

Hi, it certainly did. Feel like I know a little bit about so many of you and just the group I need. Tbh I got into a lot of the conception groups but this one feels homely ☺️
So here goes …..
Am a 42 year old mum of 2 boys. 1 aged 16 & other 5. I just feel so young at heart and ready to ttc number three.
My oh is 9 years younger (not the father to my eldest). I still think I am about 23. (Don’t look it believe me).
I hate the TWW like most of us I guess.
I am 6 dpo according to flo. Have not done ov testing or tracked temps etc. I’m too lazy.
Thank you for asking to hear a little about me. ☺️

Welcome @Maybebaby7 and @PinkButtercups 💜

@Maybebaby7 @PinkButtercups welcome ladies!! I'm currently 2 dpo wondering why I'm not pregnant yet 🤣🤣 xx

Hello @Maybebaby7 welcome

Thank you 😊

Welcome @Pei86 @PinkButtercups @Maybebaby7 ❤️ you have definitely come to the right place! Everyone is very supportive! X

Thank you @5manc 😊
Quick question has anyone been waking up feel hot? (Nah ok prob just Covid knowing me) how are you all doing ?
I just realised that I dtd according to my Flo app in peak ov day and realised that was day 11 😵. I only did it that day. I normally have a 28 day cycle so very weird that it highlighted that day as peak. Can’t understand. This happen to anyone else?
Will definitely us ovulation tracker next month x

Hi can I join please, currently in two week wait. 5dpo Sounds crazy but pretty sure I’m pregnant, have had cramping ever since ovulation happened (was tracking with lh strips) x

@Maybebaby7 means i'd have to sleep long enough to wake up haha.
Have you had COVID recently? I did last month it messed up this cycle this month.. hopefully next month is winning month!

What CD are you now?
Can reccomend the ovulation tracking, a few of us use the clear blue and the cheapie LH strips and "pre mom" app is a good help to upload them too :) x

@Maybebaby7 I also have 28 day cycle , it could of gone off ovulation last month? But yeh lh strips are best as my app would of gotten it wrong last month!

Thank you ladies. Have used clear blue in the past so will def go back to those. My first month of ttc number 3.
I don’t have any other symptoms just got in mornings. Had covid Xmas time. Actually didn’t get a temp with that fortunately.
I am currently cd8. I think I know I am not pg but interestingly I didn’t question flo app at the time as I did have ewcm on peak day and day before? I also felt more in the mood. I only get like that when I ovulate so who knows.
Wish I was working to keep my head busy.
Good luck to all. Anyone due to test soon.
I have a full week to wait. X

Hello @Mummabearrr93 welcome to the group

@Maybebaby7 fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼 I might test this weekend or Monday but depends if/when I’m feeling brave enough lol. I’m 9dpo today and unfortunately last cycle had a short luteal phase and got AF at 9dpo so have to wait and see!

@Maybebaby7 I am 4dpo, so could test next Thursday but would like to wait till next weekend but I probably won't hahaha.

Just realised I wrote cd8 when I meant 8dpo. Well if I actually ov then 🤣. Good luck to you all. I just wish we could check straight away. Waiting is not my style. X

@Maybebaby7 haha that's ok I did think that is what you meant!
Sending you lots of luck for this cycle :)
I'm out, 13DPO and AF is away to appear..grr hopefully March for me.
If you have any hints or tips the ladies would love to hear too :) x
