Hi all,

Wondered if anyone else wanted to join me! I'm currently 7DPO(ish) TTC #1. I've been off contraception since June 2021!

I don't track ovulation or anything as of yet as I haven't been off contraception that long.. does anyone want to join me for the TWW? (Well a weekish for me now!) x

Hey I’m also 7dpo
It’s driving me crazy it seems like a long 2 weeks x

Charl881 · 19/02/2022 21:08

@line123eyesalways hi again, me from the original 7dpo thread. We seem to be back in sync again, I’m 6dpo this cycle.

line123eyesalways · 19/02/2022 21:30

@disneymammys it seems to go on forever doesn't it! How are you feeling?

@Charl881 hey! We've finally synced again haha. I thought I'd start a new thread as I didn't want notifications popping up for the few that were trying to take a bit of space. How are you x

6DPO here! I’ve got PMT today so don’t think this is our month. I always felt good about March anyway - fingers crossed

TTCBABYNO2xx · 19/02/2022 22:23

Hey lovely- the TWW is a killer. I have an 18 month old son and TTC baby number 2.. just got the coil out on the 1st of feb so unsure about ovulation as of yet but just started climbing him like a tree in the hope 😂🙌🏽 will probs not test till 1st of March in logic. Got very lucky first time round first cycle but i was using ovulation digital sticks so pretty bang on ive just guessed this time! Xx

disneymammys · 20/02/2022 05:17

It really dose.
Iv been having mild cramps and nausea I was going to test today but I have been up since midnight with my toddler been poorly so I might wait till tomorrow now. How are you doing? X

Charl881 · 20/02/2022 07:27

@line123eyesalways yeah good idea! I’m good, feeling so much more positive this cycle even though I didn’t take a break from mumsnet like I said I would ha. Just need to avoid obsessively testing this month. How are you?

Charl881 · 20/02/2022 07:28

@disneymammys good luck for when you do test - and with the poorly toddler!

Whatinthename20 · 20/02/2022 07:47

I think I am 6dpo today ttc no2. Flo app said I ovulated valentines day! I don’t track with sticks or temping. I just go based on symptoms and try and dtd every 2 days within my fertile window.

TTCBABYNO2xx · 20/02/2022 09:23

Morning girls

Ive woke up with really sore boobs and still cramping 🙌🏽 hopefully somethings happening who knows!! I want to test but feel like it would be silly given i dont even know when i ovulated as only got the coil out 19 days ago xx

r2d21 · 20/02/2022 09:50

Hiya 8dpo here and symptom spotting like a mad woman 😂 had low down twinges most of the day yesterday, a shooting pain in one boob, a dizzy spell, no discharge at all. At one point a stitch like pain on my left side. Who knows! Will have to wait 😖

line123eyesalways · 20/02/2022 11:14

@LittleWins I don't think this is my month either! I've got a few PMS symptoms already, spotty skin, slight cramps and mildly sore boobs!

@TTCBABYNO2xx it is so hard. I went off pains etc, as I have pretty painful ovulation!

@disneymammys did you end up testing? Hope DC is okay!!

@Charl881 I swore I'd stay off it too, but it's so hard, especially when everyone here is in the same boat and I don't want to bore my close friends and family talking about it every day haha. I'm doing good thanks, feeling a lot more positive this month as I felt ovulation pains but not sure we caught it in time as I've started to break out and get sore boobs/nipples which is pretty common a week before AF. How are you feeling today? X

@r2d21 I had the exact same stitch feeling in my lower left hand side about 3 days ago! May have been to early and just me imagining things but it's so easy to overthink every pain! X

line123eyesalways · 20/02/2022 11:15

@TTCBABYNO2xx that's a good sign!!! Are you going to cave and test? I made sure I had none in the house so don't feel tempted haha x

OP posts:
disneymammys · 20/02/2022 11:17

I did, i am sure I can see a shadow but not 100% but I no 8dpo is really early and it was 11dpo with my son so hoping I will get a bfp.
I have a lot of symptoms so fingers crossed.
Have you tested? X

HayMay · 20/02/2022 11:40

Hi ladies! Would love to join please, I'm so impatient!!! I'm 7/8dpo.. have already tested this morning and it was BFN (what was I expecting!). Tender boobs, had cramps a few days ago but they seem to have stopped now, did feel some cramping/pulling specifically on the left side too, but that didn't last long and has also stopped now.

I'm really trying to hold off testing for a good few days now but it's so hard isn't it?

Just to add this is our 4th cycle TTC however looking at my ovulation tracking (I use strips/ Clearblue digital monitor and track bbt), I think this is only the 2nd time in those 4 cycles of having confirmed ovulation due to having the Covid booster and Covid one cycle and than travelling long haul the other cycle.

Baby dust to you all xx

Charl881 · 20/02/2022 15:23

@line123eyesalways same as always at this time of the cycle really, my boobs are really sore so convincing myself I must be pregnant even though this happens every month and it’s always BFN! At least this time I know we’ve done all we could have done so if it’s a negative I’m not going to be as bothered as I don’t feel like it’s a wasted month if that makes sense.

TTCBABYNO2xx · 20/02/2022 19:58

@line123eyesalways hey lovely- no not testing i don't keep them like you to avoid testing!! My boobs are aching now and im cramping with shooting pains in my hooha 🤣

Im really hoping this is a sign 🤞🏽🤞🏽 but then again could be the fact i got my coil out 20 days ago and this is just all the usual AF shit. Not due period till 1st March i'd assume if i got my coil out on the 1st feb. Who knows its all guessing until my periods are regular again. I'll test on 1st march .. maybe sooner who knows 😂 xx

line123eyesalways · 21/02/2022 08:10

@disneymammys have you retested? Line eyes are the worst! X

@HayMay the covid vaccine messed my cycles up too! My cycles were 28-30 days before and now they're 35/36! The symptoms sound good though!

@Charl881 that makes complete sense. When are you thinking of testing? X

@TTCBABYNO2xx fingers crossed for you!

I've got a bit of a dodgy stomach today and a sore throat! So god knows if that's just a coincidence. My boobs are still achy as well! X

OP posts:
Charl881 · 21/02/2022 08:19

@line123eyesalways I’ve got two FRERs left over from last cycle’s testing madness, so I’m going to do one on Wednesday and one on Friday. AF due Friday/ Saturday. You’re so good not having tests in the house!

line123eyesalways · 21/02/2022 08:22

@Charl881 fingers crossed for you! Have you had anymore symptoms or anything?

I can't have any in the house or I'd be doing them every day haha! I'm also expecting AF to arrive as I've never had a BFP before! X

OP posts:
Charl881 · 21/02/2022 09:26

@line123eyesalways I feel like my boobs are more sore than usual and I’m really bloated today - but I’m sure this happens every month. I never used to have sore boobs as an AF symptom before I had DS so now it really throws me each month!

Ahh it seems to have impacted so many people! Frustrating when ttc, especially when regular before!

My last period was on 23rd Dec so I'm on CD61 currently but I did have confirmed ovulation on 13th Feb I think.... according to FF/BBT/OPK etc which was CD53.. wowzers! Who knows what's going on! Confused

FF thinks I'm 8dpo today - I couldn't resist testing again this morning on both cheapie test and FRER but both totally negative.

xx

7DPO.. TWW
disneymammys · 21/02/2022 10:18

I did I tested today at 9dpo I sware the shadow is there 🤣
But I no it's still really early I never got a faint till 11dpo with my son.
I'm using the cheap tests at the moment I have 2 left so might test tonight see if it's any darker then again tomorrow them I have no more tests but my first response that I don't want to waste.
Just been for my blood test for 7dpo but it's a bit late.
How are you getting in have you tested? X

line123eyesalways · 21/02/2022 11:11

@Charl881 it's weird isn't it, like your body is playing tricks on you! Fingers crossed for you for Wednesday!

@HayMay how confusing! what a long cycle.. You're not out yet!

@disneymammys if I saw a faint line I'd be testing like there's no tomorrow haha! Let us know how you get on. No I haven't tested yet. Don't think I'm going to test until Sunday (day AF is due) as I want to try and avoid disappointment again this month! x

OP posts:
disneymammys · 21/02/2022 11:32

Aww bless you, I don't no how your managing to not test!
Haha I'm not sure if it is a faint line I don't no if I'm just seeing it it's making me feel crazy 🤣
I had this strange thing yesterday though that I don't remember happening last time. It felt like a heavy feeling on my left side snd if I moved it felt like it was stretching and today it's still there but feels more like a pull pulled muscle feeling. Not sure if that's anything x
