TWW has begun, who is with me?

[allthingssparkly]

Hi Ladies,

A little thread so we can all keep in touch during this TWW we all know how long it can be, the wait feels like a lifetime away doesn't it.

I'm 1DPO & TTC Baby 3 🤍

Good luck all of you 🥰

@MummyOfTwo1991 omg that's mad!! Nice to have managed it without too much tracking and effort as well by the sounds of it! No dreaded TWW!! Haha 😆

@HR2022 the body is very weird sometimes 🙈 I think it's because I wasn't tracking it at all, and TTC wasn't even on my mind haha! Just a little update .. AF decided to pay me a visit just before bedtime so I'm out til next month (well, technically a new TTW for me) 😭🫠 good luck to everyone else, I hope I can stay on this thread to hear any updates 😊

@MummyOfTwo1991 aww sorry to hear that!! There's nothing worse than your body telling you you aren't pregnant by treating you to AF 😷😭 sending you best wishes for next cycle! Xx

Got a bfn this morning at 12dpo. I’m heartbroken and disappointed. My first pregnancy BFP was discovered 3/4 days after AF was due. It never expected it. That was 2years ago but the pregnancy was later interrupted too. I wasn’t ttc then tho. I wish i could get my baby now. My period is due by Wednesday or Thursday.

9dpo and I’ve had light pink spotting for the past couple of days (not every time I go to the toilet). Not sure why because my period shouldn’t be here yet!

@Vickie101 you're not out until AF arrives so don't loose hope just yet 🤞🏼

@stopthepain perhaps that's a sign of implantation bleed 👀??

Sending you both lots of hope!

I don't really have many symptoms today at 8DPO 😞

@HR2022 oh you could be right! I thought implantation would be later! You’re only 8dpo - another week and I hear that many women don’t have any symptoms at all x

@stopthepain hope it is for you! When do you think you'll test?? You're only one day ahead of me! Every body is different though so not loosing hope just yet 🥲

@HR2022 thank you! I’m too worried to test. Might wait until 14dpo… if I can!

How's everyone's TWW going?? I'm thinking of testing this Sunday.. I'll be 14DPO.. 🤞🏼

Hi everyone 👋
I am currently 8DPO!
We have been trying for our first for three years and have had three losses. This is my third round of Clomid and our first month trying since our last miscarriage at New Year.

This month is a funny one for me because I have been taking progesterone since 3dpo so my "usual" symptoms are all out of whack!

My breasts are usually very sore after ovulation whether I am pregnant or not but they're fine this month!

I've got is some mild cramps, nausea, acne, and fatigue; but I'm trying sooo hard not to read into it all too much and just wait for 12/13DPO to test and know for sure!

best of luck, girls 💜💜💜💜

How is everyone?

9dpo and slowly getting to that point of wanting to take a pregnancy test 😬

Still waiting for TWW to start and I’m CD21. Going slightly dippy!

@allthingssparkly yay! The TWW is nearly over for you! have you got any tell tale symptoms?

@Hana89 Tuesday and Wednesday morning I had waves of very mild period type cramps and yesterday afternoon and this afternoon/evening I feel exhausted 🤔 not sure if these could be a sign but one thing I do know is that I never get period cramps in my cycle other than the day my period is due and the few days I bleed for.

I got my peak OPK on the 19th April and have been BBT alongside this.

@allthingssparkly That definitely sounds promising to me! I'll keep everything crossed for good news for us both in a few days ☺️ xx

@allthingssparkly Hi, can I join? I'll be 10dpo on Sunday so planning to test then! Got slight period cramps/twinges and feeling exhausted... So maybe we'll get lucky?! Ttc #2

Hey ladies hope it's ok to join! I'm on 4th month ttc, how do you track you ovulation? I've just been using an app but no luck so far
Fingers crossed for lots of bfp in may❤️

Thank you @Hana89 when are you testing? 😊

Hi @Kindofcrunchy Similar symptoms to me, mine are literally so mild and just come in very short bursts it's weird. I'm 10dpo today 😬 will test over the weekend I think providing my temps stay up 🤞 Good luck to you! ⭐

@Kindofcrunchy Oooo! Exciting! You said youre trying to conceive #2 - do you remember any of your early symptoms with #1? That might be a tiny clue (although every pregnancy is different of course!)

@em123456789 I am on Clomid (an ovulation induction pill) as I very rarely ovulate on my own, and each cycle I seem to ovulate on CD17 - I track this by monitoring my CM and using cheapy OPKs each first thing each morning from CD13 until I get the surge and the OPK is positive. Sometimes if I feel I'm close I'll test in the afternoon too!

@allthingssparkly well I'm 9 dpo today so although it is a bit early I'll probably test on Monday morning as it is a bank holiday so DH will be home and we can do it together. Last time I was pregnant I got faint lines from 12dpo so we'll see! I know it sounds silly but without having sore boobs I just don't feel pregnant at all. Last time I felt like I knew! Although as I do remind myself - the last three times I was pregnant I had the same symptoms and it didn't end well, so maybe it would be a good thing if this time my symptoms are different.

12dpo is a good time to test @Hana89 😊 Hopefully it's a BFP for you this cycle!

It's weird isn't it some have lots of symptoms towards the end of their tww and others have no symptoms until they are 4-6 weeks pregnant.

With my first I didn't test until I had missed my period, but I do remember with my first feeling different, even my partner noticed it. It was a blazing positive, I didn't even have to wait those two lines were literally looking at me 🙈 with my second I'm sure I tested a couple of days before my period was due it was 7 years ago now so can't remember exactly 😬 but I do remember finding out very early on.

We shall see what happens, have you been temping or opk testing?

@allthingssparkly No, I try not to do anything in the TWW except notice how I'm feeling. Otherwise it just sort of takes over.
I do use OPKs around the time of ovulation just to make sure we catch the window of opportunity - although I seem to O on CD17 every time so that is helpful! Haha!

Fingers crossed for us all on this thread! 🍀🍀🍀

Yeah I totally get you with that @Hana89 I only did both this cycle to get a better understanding of when I'm ovulating and it appears I got my peak on the 19th April, did my last test on the 21st April and it was a low reading so didn't bother continuing to do them after that. However I'm still BBT but I'm getting to obsessed over it now 🙈 what will be will be I suppose! ⭐

I joined this thread at the start but been quiet since, sorry hectic week.
I'm 11/12dpo today, did a test and 9/10dpo which I suspected to be an evaluation.
Tested this morning, to rule it out really as I have my hen do this weekend and I've just got this...
Freaking out a little, should I be worried the FRER isn't darker? Are the clearblue reliable? I've had no symptoms at all, except maybe a little backache which I put down to work.
First time ttc so I'm not sure what to expect
