TWW testing first week of August

[TC95]

This is my third cycle trying, I’m currently 5dpo and definitely symptom spotting already 🙃 thought it would be nice to have some company in the TWW, meant to have AF on the 5th august but hoping I won’t 🤞🏻

@LorrenK yeah that’s what my boyfriend keeps saying that they probably aren’t that good 🤣 I’m gonna see how it goes though and if I’ve not had AF by Friday then take a clear blue one
Hi @RugbyGirl1 that symptom spotting is so hard not to do isn’t it, but it sounds like a lot of good signs for you! Ooh yeah I was tryna figure out what my could be, so far it’s just been a really snotty nose and hasn’t turned into a full blown cold which has odd! What cycle are you on? I’ve got my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@TC95 you definitely aren’t out yet, it’s really early to test. It’s also galling to see an expensive negative test, so I would keep going with cheapies until your period is late. Fingers crossed for you x

@TC95 oh cycle 20 or so, enough to learn to not get my hopes up!!! You? You're testing early - definitely give it a day or two and see what happens! I don't tend to test until AF is late, which is never 😂 saves me a fortune on tests haha!

@Lapin387 yeah I think that’s why I wanna keep going with the cheapies and I don’t mind using one of them every morning just in case, but yeah I keep telling myself it’s early days as well, I think cause I’m super impatient I just wanna know for definite x

@RugbyGirl1 im on cycle 3 so it is still early on in our ttc journey tbh I had a feeling nothing would happen until the end of the year but still get my hopes up every month just in case 🤣 yeah I’m only 10dpo and AF is due Friday but just have a funny feeling this month I’m gonna keep trying with the cheap tests I got a pack of 30 on Amazon so don’t feel bad using them up 😂I wish I had your willpower my boyfriend always says to wait but I’m so impatient!

Morning everyone! How are we all feeling today? I’m 11dpo today and had some cramping last night that felt like AF was gonna come super early, I can be early like by a day or two but never five days. Was sure I was gonna wake up this morning by AF but nothing, took another cheap test this morning as well and still BFN. I do have a feeling though that AF will be here sometime today just cause of the cramps last night.

10/11 dpo i think
due on thursda
sore ish boobs more than yesterday i think
slept awful hot and lots of mini dreams. Hate ths last few days of not knowing
good luck everyone

Barely slept due to 2 year old and so I’m feeling exhausted and a bit tearful. I did a test at 1.30 am but couldn’t look at result as 2 year old woke while I was in the bathroom and I had to feed her to get her to be quiet and not wake the in laws and cousins etc. Looking at the test this morning there is a line and I think a bit stronger than the previous 🤞 but I’d have liked to see it within the time limit.

Good luck to those of you waiting, I’m rooting for you x

This is a beautiful example of mums being just amazing, heroic creatures. Hope you get an early night and a good sleep tonight.

@tc95 looking back at my old tests
i tested three days before period and was negative
then positive on the day i was due. So thete is hope yet?

So i tested this morning and it was a bfn.. i am hving dreams tht dont make any sense and also was feeling very cold last night.. no idea why.. so as always i thought oh yh its a symptom 🤣😭.. but it was a clear bfn 😭

@J1290 yeah I’m not due AF till Friday anyway so don’t wanna think too much into the negative tests but I feel like I’m gonna get AF early so I don’t know what to think. Like I had cramps last night and got a few now but not as bad as last night so I dno if that’s AF coming 🙃

@Katt12345 how many dpo are you? And when is AF due? Could be still too early

@TC95 Im 12dpo today well i got my peak on the 20th of july.. i usually get my bfp before period is due and my period is due on the 3rd so im guessing it would have shown by now..

With both of my DC I didn't get positive tests until the day AF was due.

This hasn't stopped me early testing this time ttc right enough (because who doesn't love to torture themselves eh!) but just putting it out there, getting a BFN this early isn't really a true indicator of whether or not you are pregnant.

@ScarlettOHaraHamiltonKennedyButler that's reassuring to hear!❤️

I’m 7DPO, my FRER tests arrives today so I’m going to hold out until Friday if I can but the suspense is killing me 😩😩😩 I have been feeling very nauseous with a sore lower back!

@LorrenK I am 7dpo as well and am sitting on my hands waiting to test. I have had cramps the last two days and I am exhausted today! Makes me hopeful but I am also very aware that I am symptom spotting and looking for signs so they may mean nothing!!!

@LorrenK @Aimee1995 I'm 8dpo and so desperate to test! I'm usually quite patient but noth this month 😣doesn't help that I have horrific acne (usually very clear skin) and woke up last night with acid reflux, both sent my brain into overdrive!

@Aimee1995 and @LorrenK I'm one day behind you on 6dpo and my symptom spotting has gone crazy this month! Sore boobs / nipples when I rarely have much sensation in them (TMI sorry!), Sniffly, really tired, feeling like I'm hungover when I've not drunk any alcohol, and SO thirsty, I can't seem to drink enough water to quench the thirst, plus some weird feeling dull aches.... Are these even symptoms or am I just going crazy 🤪🥴 who knows anymore!

@Aimee1995 it’s so hard isn’t it!! Feels like forever 😩

@alwaysseeingstars I am one day behind you? When are you going to test?

@RugbyGirl1 i’m the same, nauseous, sore back, niggly pains low down, if I get BFNs my body is mean!! And I’m pretty sure I’m not imagining it!! But only time will tell!

@LorrenK I really want to wait till Friday (12dpo) but I just don't see myself waiting this month! Especially with a few tests at home argh! how about you?

@LorrenK it is mean when our bodies play tricks on us!! You never know though, this could be a lucky thread! Well done for holding out until Friday!

@alwaysseeingstars I always said I would wait until AF is late but because of this nauseous feeling I’m eager to test so I’m going to test 10DPO which is Thursday.

Hey ladies 5dpo and I'm soooo over waiting 😂 doesn't help I have nothing to do at home than being sick with covid 🙄
