TWW starting 7th-13th may!

[Peonies94]

Hello! Currently in my TWW! 3dpo I believe! I have a short LP and usually have really irregular cycles but I seem to have ovulated early on for 2 months now! I’ve been ttc for 16 months and need help to get through these next 10 days!

@Newandreallyconfused we were the same, not trying last month either. I think we only managed to dtd once 2 days before I got a static smiley.

I never realised how soon my PMS symptoms started too. I thought I got cramps the day before only but turns out it’s up to a week before 🤣

I am going to test using a cheaply maybe Wednesday morning so 9dpo. What about you?

@H44123 good luck holding out! I’ll have everything crossed for good results all round ☺️

Im a little behind you, only 3DPO so I’m going to try to hold out until 10DPO… trying to keep busy but it’s hard not to think about it!

Guys talk some sense into me just looked at one of my cheapies from earlier and there's a line there now, this is definitely an evap right?

BFN this morning (10dpo) definitely an evap yesterday

@Tropicana1 Ah sorry to hear that, might be worth testing again in a couple of days as 10DPO is still really early!

@Newandreallyconfused yea it is early, I only have an 11-12 day luteal phase though so AF due in 2 days anyway!

@Tropicana1 I also tested this morning with a cheapy and of course a BFN. I swore this month I would be more relaxed too! I’m going to try wait until this weekend unless AF shows but I doubt I will.

why do we do this to ourselves ladies?!

@H44123 the obsession is real! Sorry about your BFN, how many DPO are you?

@Tropicana1 sorry to hear about yours too. Fingers crossed we are just testing too early!

I don’t have much hope for myself this month though. I think I am 8dpo today. Still all new to
me too as only 2 months since I came off the implant so I don’t know what my cycles lengths are yet etc.

I want to try hold out til the weekend to test now but I don’t think I will be able to 🤣

And so to my first symptom spotting … horrendous cramps, and backache. I don’t normally get either as a PMS symptom so of course I’ve now got my hopes up. It’s going to be a long week 🤣

@H44123 sorry to hear about your BFN, it’s still early though - keeping my fingers crossed for everyone x

Hi,
Can I please join this chat. I’m in a similar position to a few of you on here! I came off the pill in March after years of being on it, now TTC. I waited until I’d had a period before going crazy with ovulation tests haha.
CB ovulation tests said last Thursday & Friday I was at peak so we had dtd a few times last week. Now I’m a number of days PO and I’m noticing a few things like cramping, sore boobs, feeling tired but I just don’t know if this is my hormones and I’m just overthinking / googling everything! Haha
Suppose I will just have to wait until next weekend before testing unless AF appears before then (hopefully not). Although I know it might not happen straight away so trying to be patient too! 😆

@Tropicana1 I am going to be more than crazy by the time that comes around! 7DPO and already a lunatic! I’m holding out at least 2 more days test!

@Peonies94well done for staying strong and not testing yet! Wish I could listen to my own advice and not test early 🤣

@Newbie2022 hi! The symptoms in the tww are so consuming! I am googling daily but more so just for positive stories to keep
my feeling positive.

Past few days I have felt dizzy on occasions and as I laid in bed last night quite sick but I am a sicky person anyway. Certain smells/tastes make me sick anyway. Today though I have had a dull ache on my right lower belly, only way to describe it is it’s in the crease between my belly and leg 🤣 I think I am due AF this weekend 🤷🏻‍♀️

how’s everyone feeling today??

@H44123 i am fighting a strong temptation to do one in the morning! I’ll try my very best not to! Even if I wait until Thursday, at 9DPO that’s better! I could just do IC Thursday, Friday and until af arrives then!

@Newbie2022 Welcome, my peak was last Friday so we’ll be about the same DPO ☺️ I have lost the will with symptom spotting already, every twinge sends me googling!

@H44123 I like your idea of looking for positive stories, will try the same.

@H44123 they are definitely consuming and this is only my first month!
Yeh I keep getting cramps too and think oh it might just be AF but that feels too early. I just wish I knew what was going on! Haha

@Newandreallyconfused ah yes we are! It’s awful isn’t it, glad I’m not the only one! Haha what twinges have you experienced so far?

@Newbie2022 It’s my first month too so we’re in exactly the same boat. So just starting today really, I’ve had really dull aching in my lower abdomen and a fair few nips on my right hand side. Backache as well which is unusual for me.

No doubt all PMS type stuff but it’s amazing how much you notice when you’re looking for signs 🤣 what about you?

Haha I know I feel like am I noticing all of these because I’m literally tracking everything!
Yeh I’ve had aches in my lower abdomen too and it feels like someone is pulling on my insides if that makes sense 😂. My boobs feel really heavy too and sore but I don’t know if this is just hormones. I am using the natural cycles app too and I did have sore boobs for a bit last time but it seems to be longer this time and maybe earlier on in my cycle well unless AF appears! It doesn’t help that the symptoms overlap 😫
Fingers crossed for us all! I honestly didn’t think there was so much science to it, how wrong was I 😂

@Peonies94 ah good self control!! I have lost all sanity and done 3 cheapies today 🤦🏼‍♀️ now drinking wine to try and make myself regain a little perspective 😂

@Tropicana1 ahh it’s torture isn’t it!!! Wish I could sleep the next 3 days away!

@Peonies94 oh same! These days go so slowly, just want af to hurry up and arrive now

How’s everyone doing today? My cramps and backache have completely disappeared .. not sure how to feel about that!

I’ve tested on a few IC and a frer this morning and then another IC this afternoon and I swear I see a line! I’m also imagining symptoms but I’m sure that’s because of all the line comfusion! I’m only 8DPO so I’m sure it can’t be anything!!

I have felt fine all day today, no cramps or anything but then this evening I have felt a bit dizzy and nauseous all of a sudden. This was after my dinner so a high probability due to me being a greedy pig and eatting too much as usual 🤣

I did an IC this morning and it’s a BFN. I do have 2 FRER And 1 CB early. I am probably going to do IC until this weekend and if no AF will do an FRER although don’t have much hope.

good luck to you all xx
