How to pass the time in the TWW

[Charl881]

I’m in the dreaded TWW. Didn’t even properly try this month as DP was away so only DTD once about five days before ovulation. So just counting down the days for AF to arrive.

It’s so tortuous every cycle and I swear it just gets slower each time.

I end up spending far too much time testing and on here.

Any tips on how to make it less painful?

Oh that must be frustrating when there’s no proper explanation!

6dpo and no symptoms what so ever. Time is going very slowly! How's everyone else getting on? X

Hi all, it feels so reassuring reading how everyone is getting on and knowing we are all in a similar boat with the dreaded TWW.
I think I ovulated on 18th (felt typical symptoms) opk 16th
I am now 7dpo and had BFN today.
I know it's too early but had cramping from 3dpo and same night started to have very vivid dreams every night. Wonder what tonight's dream holds in store.
Even dreamt at the weekend that I had twins 😀
AF not due until Sun/Mon so need to try to stop googling so much.

How is everyone else getting on, any BFP yet 🤞

Hi @Leah1888 I'm 7dpo and have zero symptoms apart from creamy cm 🙈🙈🙈 trying to hold out until Friday to test but will see if that actually happens. Been ttc for 18 months with 2 losses but I think this is the most intense 2ww so far because following increase in medication I actually seem to have ovulated when I should have. Trying to stay optimistic but not set myself up for 💔

Will you test again today? X

Scrap that I am utterly ravenous - possibly a symptom?? It's definitely not the usual for me 🙏

So AF was due yesterday, no sign. I got a BFN on a Clear and Simple test this morning (25miu), is it worth me getting a FRER? 13 or 14 dpo so surely would be showing on any test by now.

I would defo be doing a FRER 🙏🙏🙏

Morning ladies,

I’m officially 12DPO and got 2 clear BFP this morning. I still can’t believe it, although remaining optimistic as my last 2 pregnancies have resulted in miscarriage.

Symptoms wise, absolutely nothing till about 10dpo when I started to get lower back pain. I did a test that evening and had a really faint positive and held off again until this morning.

The last 2 nights I’ve been wide awake at around 4am and needing the toilet, random boob pains but nothing too much. Hardly any stomach pains - random pulling feeling here and there. And general brain fog over the last week, putting foil in the fridge/not really listening. I’ve also felt very irritable/emotional. I have had a bit more EWCM but I don’t know if that’s anything to do with being pregnant.

AF due Friday so I will be testing again then and next week just to check line progression.

Pray to god this works our - sending baby dust to you all and fingers crossed for more BFP 💫🥰 xx
