And it begins... 1dpo

[bananas9]

Who's with me? I'm only 1dpo and I already feel like this isn't our month :( I didn't have any ewcm whereas when I last got pregnant (ended in mc) I had an abundance of it so feel like I'm out already. How is everyone else feeling?

Heyy!
I'm 1dpo too. It's horrible this TWW! It consumes my mind 🙈 I'm ttc #3 I came off the pill in march, got pg straight away before my first period. Mc at 6 weeks and now on my TWW. Read so much about being more fertile. Sorry to hear about your loss! Sending hugs x

@Kerryw93 I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I heard you're mort fertile after a mc but wasn't true for me sadly, this is month 5 trying after it. Hopefully it won't be the same for you though. The tww consumes me too, longest wait ever! When will you be testing?

Hiya! Really sorry about your MC xx I'm 4DPO at the moment. I'm TTC #1. All I can say is hang in there, the TWW is torture. I won't be testing as my last cycle (cycle #2) ended in a CP and I don't want my heart ripped out like that again. I'm going to try really hard to wait until CD35 and then run a cheapy test and then if that's positive, will then confirm it with the last digital Clearblue in the house.

Hey, I’m possibly 3dpo although not entirely sure because my OPKs have been completely confusing. So I too am in my TWW and already impatient!

I came off the pill in February and got pregnant straight away, unfortunately it was an ectopic. So now I’m back in the land of the TWW trying for number two! (My daughter is 8).

I am inpatient and want to start testing ASAP but like SarahShorty has said above, I’m scared of things going wrong so do want to try to hold out as long as I can (or just have it ruled out by AF showing up).

Thankyou @bananas9 , it sucks so bad. I hope this cycle is your time!!! I got a positive hpt on 10dpo last month. So I'm hoping I'll hold out until then as a minimum. Ideally wait longer. Unfortunately I've got a UTI atm 😭 so I'm struggling to take my mind off of anything 😂
When is everyone else testing? X

I also got a positive test 10dpo previously so will be testing then which is next Saturday for me. Just hope I hold out that long! I've spent so much money on tests I just don't want to do it anymore. I'm really not feeling positive this month at all, how is everyone feeling?

@bananas9 it's draining isn't it. I havnt been trying that long but already I want to give up 🤦🏻‍♀️ . Try think positive (easier said then done I know) I can't wait to hear how you get on. Will this be your first?

@Kerryw93 no I have an 18 month old son but it doesn't make trying for number 2 any easier. I hope we both get out bfp this month! So what day will you be testing? Will it be Friday or Saturday?

@bananas9 I know what you mean!!! Fingers crossed for our BFP! I am going to TRY hold off until at least the 20th. . So saturday i think that works out to be. However I have no self control 😂 what day are you planning on?

@Kerryw93 20th is the Friday 🤣 I'm going to wait until Saturday when I'm 10dpo but I really don't have much hope. It normally gets to 7/8dpo when I start going crazy symptom spotting so I'm okay right now, how are you?

@bananas9 hope you don’t mind if I join! I ovulated the same day or day after you! I have been ttc for 16 months have really irregular cycles but recently had 2 normal length cycles! I do however now have really short LP! Just seems one thing after another! Hoping this month is the month and my LP is a little longer! Good luck to you!

Also sorry to those having a tough time and had MC etc! Ttc is so hard isn’t it! I also think I’ll be testing Saturday, if af hasn’t already arrived by then!

Welcome @Peonies94 are you ttc your first? I have irregular cycles too and it makes things just that little bit harder. How are you feeling?

@bananas9 ttc my first! What about you? Ahh it’s so hard isn’t it! It’s a minefield! I’m okay! Not feeling anything really! How about you?

@Peonies94 This will be my second. Are you using ovulation tests? I'm okay but even though it's still so early I can't seem to stop thinking about it despite me thinking this isn't our month

@bananas9 how many months have you been trying this time? And how long did it take for your first? Using the CB ones and the ovusense to temp! What about you?

@bananas9 I feel the same! can’t stop thinking about it but also feel like this isn’t my month, I use to feel so positive but each month I lose hope thst I’ll ever have a dc!

@Peonies94 9 months but I had a mc at 4 months. My first took 3 months. I was using the cb ones but they are so expensive so I've stopped and am just using one step cheapie ones. You will have one, try and stay positive. As you've been trying for over a year have you gone to the doctor?

@bananas9 yea I’ve been to doctors! Had initial tests and told to try again for 6 months, so basically just waiting a month or so longer before getting back in touch! Sorry to hear about mc! They are so expensive aren’t they!

@Peonies94 that's good they didn't find anything. Hopefully you'll conceive before you have to go back any symptom spotting yet?

@Peonies94 also can I ask a question, what is you cm like atm?

@bananas9 yes it is good though didn’t explain why my cycles might be like 100 days sometimes!

nah nothing yet! What about you? I had a like tingle kind of feeling in lower stomach earlier, which probably isn’t anything! Urm well the last two months I’ve had normal length cycles but absolutely no EWCM during ovulation which I did previously have! So that’s odd! But I’m wetter now than I was during fertile window! Weird!

100 days, how often do long cycles like that happen? Nope no symptoms either. I am really wet as well and I hope it's a good sign but I'm sure last month was the same and I got my hopes up about it. Normally they say you dry up after ovulation don't they. Is yours like white and lotiony?

@Peonies94 forgot to tag

I'm 6DPO now, CD28. 7 more dayssss, aaarrgghh. I've been good, though, nearly caved and bought some FRER, fortunately I was distracted and didn't make it to checkout (Amazon), cat threw up a hairball 😂 How is everyone doing? x
