Welcome @Moosh18 ! You are always in with a chance until AF shows up. Fingers crossed for you.

Thank you for your sweet condolences and wishes! So sweet.
I was wondering if anyone here has drank alcohol during your tww? Or is that frown upon?

Moosh18 · 21/04/2022 07:59

@Lexxa they say you shouldn't as it can effect it, but after trying for 2 years previously I ended up just carrying on as normal! X

Peonies94 · 21/04/2022 11:14

@Moosh18 hows your chart looking now? Are your temps just steadily staying up? How are you feeling? Almost a week down!!

Peonies94 · 22/04/2022 09:17

@Lexxa i stopped drinking In the TWW for the first few months ttc and cancelled plans with friends. I didn’t want to go and say I can’t drink, as they’d instantly think I was pregnant and didn’t want to start the questions! I now just carry on as normal, and probably drink in about 1 out of 3 TWW, depending if they land on any occasions! This one being Easter I have drunk on two occasions! I do feel a little guilty, but it seems to still have positive outcomes for lots of people as it helps them relax. I think you just need to do what you feel comfortable with! Best of luck!x

hows everyone feeling today? Is everyone waiting for af to arrive or are they going to test at a set day? I’ll probably test oh Monday!

QueenBee22 · 22/04/2022 11:09

@Peonies94 I am going to try my best to wait until AF is due to test. I have never succeeded and caved at 10DPO last cycle so will try not to test before then. I am 5DPO today. How many days DPO do you think you will be on Monday?

OP posts:
Peonies94 · 22/04/2022 16:00

@QueenBee22 according to my chart I’ll be 10 DPO on Monday! I’ll cave by then!

PeachesToday · 22/04/2022 16:47

Same here. I’m going to try and hold out until AF does/doesn’t arrive.

I have raging PMT and after some Googling it doesn’t mean I’m out but I don’t feel pregnant. I’m only 8 DPO I guess. I do feel very nauseous today but that might be due to my Easter egg lunch.

I can’t wait to think about something else and just have all this waiting over with… and a lovely baby 😄

PeachesToday · 22/04/2022 16:48

Oh and I’m planning on having a glass of wine tonight 💃

Lexxa · 22/04/2022 20:11

@Moosh18 thank you for your response and well wishes. Means a lot :)

@Peonies94 ahhh so good to hear some insight . I did end up having a couple glasses of wine over the last 2 days. Work has been so stressful.

Lexxa · 22/04/2022 20:13

I did want to get some thoughts, maybe it’s just my body being crazy?

today I am 7DPO. Being that I had my high peak on Sunday. But I decided to take a random ovulation clear blue test and I got a flashing smiley? any clues why that would happen?

QueenBee22 · 22/04/2022 20:20

@Lexxa not sure why you got a flashing smiley at 7DPO. I have never used the ovulation tests once I get a peak until after my next period. Maybe it is detecting a rise in hormones coming up to your period/or implantation hopefully but I am only guessing here!

Peonies94 · 23/04/2022 09:27

@PeachesToday how are you today? 9 DPO Is that correct? How long is your LP? Will you be testing or waiting for AF?

@QueenBee22 How are you doing?

this TWW drags so much doesn’t it! I’m officially into week 2 of the TWW and I’m so glad to see the back of week 1! Now just to get through week two! I usually test at 9DPO but I don’t have many cheap tests and held off buying them. This means I hopefully won’t cave tomorrow, and hold off until at least Monday (10DPO)!

QueenBee22 · 23/04/2022 10:14

@Peonies94 I am 5DPO today and doing okay thank you. I am trying to keep busy and not think about testing!

OP posts:
Peonies94 · 23/04/2022 11:22

@QueenBee22 ahh it’s so hard isn’t it! I’m the same! Trying to keep myself busy too! 8DPO I am today!

Lexxa · 23/04/2022 20:26

@QueenBee22 got flashing smiley again today, hmmmm, I wonder what’s going on lol. Hopeful thinking

Caspino · 24/04/2022 08:47

Hello ladies, how is everyone doing??

I should be 6-7 dpo now but no symptoms at all except a little bit of a bloody nose the past 2 days which I never get (but I'm putting it down to hayfever/change in the weather).

During ny last pregnancy at this stage I'd had implantation bleeding, peeing lots and breasts were killing me so not holding out much hope this month!

Hope you're all feeling ok and having lots of symptoms! Lol

I caved and tested this morning (10 DPO). I wasn’t surprised as I don’t feel any different but I felt like we did a good job this month. Onto month 5 :(. How are you doing?

For next month I’ve bought cheapy OPKs as it was all getting quite expensive.

PeachesToday · 24/04/2022 08:58

Oh and I’m a very steady 29 day cycle but ovulation can be day 15 or 16 x

Caspino · 24/04/2022 09:49

It's still early days, hopefully AF doesn't show!

PeachesToday · 24/04/2022 10:19

Fingers crossed!

Your bloody nose sounds very positive though. I’ve heard of that being one of the first symptoms if it’s not something you regularly get

QueenBee22 · 24/04/2022 11:31

@Lexxa it is a strange one who knows very hard to say.

Sorry to hear @PeachesToday

I have stopped using the expensive OPKs and just use the easy at home ones now and the premom app. I find it better because I used to have 8 or 9 days of flashing smileys with the clearblue ones.

Same here. Those flashing smiles are maddening!

Caspino · 24/04/2022 12:13

Hopefully, we'll see. Trying to hold off on testing as long as possible. TWW is driving me mad but will update as I go along too. x
