Officially in the TWW
3dpo

CM starting to go creamy now, this is the worst part now! AF due on 17th June

Had sex only on day of and day after ovulation as we weren't going to try this month but decided to just take it a bit more chilled!

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 19:29

@Curlywurly3 I've had such a weird cycle this time too!! I've been ovulating cd14 without fail this month I've ovulated cd18!! Get baby dancing tonight ✨✨✨

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 19:42

@lollyx96 ooooh so exciting !! When did you DTD and when do you think you ovulated ?? Xx

@Curlywurly3 it's possible to have two LH peaks in a cycle where the first doesn't induce ovulation especially if it's early on, but the second does

This explains it well

@itsnearlymytime So we said we weren't going to try properly this month and were going to try on our holiday instead. Due to work commitments only managed to dtd on cd9 & cd15. I was still using opks out of curiosity as I came off implant in jan and wanted to get an idea of my cycles (was on implants for ten years and never had a period!!) so I think I ovulated cd18 maybe 19 (according to premom) I get confused with opks! xx

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 19:57

@lollyx96 that's the best as you were chilled about it and it happened! I've got in my own head completely 🙈

We did it 3 times during the fertile window as we wanted to try and be more chilled this month but im still symptom spotting and feeling nervous xx

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:02

@itsnearlymytime so many people have said that!! it's so so hard to be chilled when it's all you want and you can easily become consumed by it! Our first month trying we DTD soooo much and I was absolutely gutted when it didn't happen so now I'm trying so hard not to get excited or look into things too much. I didn't even think it would be possible for me this month until I got strange symptoms! Now it's all I think about I've been consumed again!! How long have you been trying for and is it your first??? Xx

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 20:04

@lollyx96 exactly!! And they say that as soon as you stop obsessing over it, it will happen! Problem is I can't stop obsessing over it! Honestly so exciting, are you testing again in the morning?

Yeah will be our first, this is our 3rd month! How about you? Xx

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:08

It's realllllly hard not to! It's all I see on my tik tok now too so I can't ever escape🙈 aw my fingers are crossed for you! Yes Il be testing first thing!! Only problem is I've still only got cheap ones as my Amazon delivery didn't arrive! They're not even early detecting ones either but I'm still hopeful 🤞🏽 this is our first too! We've only tried properly twice xx

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:08

@itsnearlymytime forgot to tag you lol xx

Tropicana1 · 09/06/2022 20:09

@lollyx96 what symptoms did you have?

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 20:10

Omg same !! I get the "if you're seeing this, it's for you .." and then shows pregnancy and I'm like .. in trying here?! 😂

Honestly that's a good line for a not early test I think!! I can see it without squinting!

Just shows just one sperm can do it! I'm just praying we've done it this time, third time lucky and all that xx

OP posts:
lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:14

@itsnearlymytime hahaha me too!!! It can get so annoying but when you're in the tww I'm like omg is it my time??!! Haha I did think that!! I'm just trying hard not to get excited because I had mutiple evap lines from frer so I'm hoping different test different outcome! Yes definitely third time lucky 👶🏼✨ xx

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 20:18

@lollyx96 exactly! Honestly I keep feeling so down about it like it's just not going to happen then keep telling myself it will!

Omg same the past two months I've had evap lines on frer I'm a little scared to use them and was gonna buy one tomorrow!

Got everything crossed for you!! You had any strong symptoms?? People say your boobs hurt, I have zero boob pain

Fingers crossed, thanks girl ❤️ xx

@Tropicana1 6&7 dpo had lower back pain and dull cramps lower abdo, 8dpo had really bad heartburn suddenly not after eating! And today the same plus fatigue and loose stools (sorry for tmi!!)

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:33

@itsnearlymytime it's so hard not to but it will happen andyour time will definitely come it's still super early for us ✨I cried when I came on my period cause I really thought I was pregnant it's such an awful thing to happen gives so many of us false hope! Clear blue one did it to me too so I'm hoping this isn't the case! I've heard good things about Superdrug ones?? Major symptoms for me our low back pain fatigue and heartburn no sore boobs yet I keep touching them like are you sore?! Cause some many people I've spoken too said that was there first! Xx

lollyx96 · 09/06/2022 20:40

Does anyone think I'm silly to not tell my other half I have a few faint positives?? Part of me is absolutely desperate to tell him, but another part of me wants to wait to see if I make it to the Clearblue digital as a surprise???? I don't know what to do 😞

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 20:56

@lollyx96 if I were you I'd be wanting to wait to tell him until I got a darker line, I wanna surprise my OH xx but it's of course up to you x

Have you?? I might try one of those, I tried boots and got a evap. I'm the exact same as you, heart burn, fatigue! I keep having shooting pains up inside the vagina area 😬

I really hope this is it for you xx

Tropicana1 · 09/06/2022 21:19

@lollyx96 I get you - i told my husband straight away with our first but it was an 11dpo FRER so I was pretty confident, super early cheapie I'm not sure whether I would just tell his straight away or wait a few days? Probs would end up telling him straight away but I'm a terrible secret keep r 😂

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 21:21

@Tropicana1 last month I got an indent line on a FRER and I showed my partner we both thought I was pregnant 🥺 was so hard!Xx

@lollyx96 @itsnearlymytime @lollyx96 ladies if I had a positive this weekend I’d try my best to keep it a secret until Father’s Day! Would be so hard but that would be amazing

itsnearlymytime · 09/06/2022 22:04

@Jod30 I think I'd do the same too and get a Father's Day card xx

lollyx96 · 10/06/2022 07:06

I completely forgot Father's Day was coming up!! That's such a good idea! I've just got BFP on a digital this morning 🥰🥰
