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 🤞🏻

@TC95 I'll wait then!!!

@TC95 thank you! Fingers crossed for you 😊I'm definitely hoping that's the case! The Flo app has put my ovulation as Sunday after getting the 2nd peak on Sat (it was showing as Sat previously) so I have no idea 😂Going to try to wait to test until the 7th when it shows AF is due, that way it could be one day late depending on when I actually ovulated!! But am keeping up DTD EOD just in case. When are you testing??
@H1994 ah fair enough! Maybe say your OH had a rough night so you may need to drive back 😂But depending on the type of bar you could maybe get away with having fizzy elderflower? That's my go to if I'm not in the mood to drink!
@winstondog11 Sorry to hear about your MC, sending lots of luck!!

@alwaysseeingstars I could say that to be fair... I'm sure it'll be fine 🙃🙈 I'm a theatre student so should be able to act my way through haha!

@H1994 haha nice! You can rehearse for your role 😂I don't drink much but have been TTC a little while so there have been occasions where I would have normally drank (a wedding or formal do) so I either had elderflower to pretend it was champagne, or said I may get called on an early shift (I'm a nurse)

@alwaysseeingstars ahh yes, that's a good idea 🙈 just so uncertain isn't it, best to be safe though I guess

@alwaysseeingstars its so hard knowing the exact day isn’t it! I usually get a pain when I ovulate but haven’t had that this month so really having to rely on the tests 🙃 AF is meant to be on the 5th for me so trying to hold out until then!

Hi all 👋🏼 I'm due AF on 8th hopefully she won't turn up 🤞🏼

@mummatara hi! Sending lots of baby dust your way! Do you know when you ovulated?

I got a static smiley yesterday on CB opks so hopefully today 🤞🏼 will confirm with BBT over the next few days. Sending baby dust to you all too 💕

@mummatara I'm also due on the 8th 🌟 fingers crossed for you! (Us! 🤞🏼)

@H1994 ahh amazing a same day buddy 🥳

Do any of you think you'll test early? I'd like to say I will hold out but I'm very impatient and will most likely crack 😂

@mummatara ooh it’s so exciting fingers crossed everyone! I’ll be trying not to test until the 5th when AF is due potentially even try hold out till the day after, what about you?

@mummatara I'm gunna try and wait out... because my ovulation is predicted, I didn't do any tests but feel like it's pretty accurate anyway 🙈 how about you??...

@TC95 I would love to say I'll wait but it will be very hard I have quite a lot happening the weekend you would be testing so I think that would take my mind off it a bit then I'm onto test day anyway 🙊

@mummatara I think that’s the best thing to try and keep busy and keep your mind off it! I’m off work this week so think it’s making this week a lot harder than normal 😭 but hoping next week will be easier to deal with

@mummatara @TC95 oooo i'll keep everything crossed for everyone! 🌟

@mummatara @H1994 I am also due on the 8th! I am 2 DPO and DTD the day before and day off but was caught off guard in the lead up because I thought I had already ovulated.

I am TTC #1 cycle 2. Finding TWW the hardest part especially now as I am a teacher on summer holidays so thinking of nothing but testing!!

@Aimee1995 @mummatara ahhh amazing! 🥰 lots of buddies now! Haha that's good Aimee, I am 3dpo (I think?!) And DTD the day before and day of... so we've used the same tactics haha! I've been highly recommended the first response early detection tests so may do next weekend (if I can't wait!)

@Aimee1995 feeling your pain! Off work this week and it’s all I can think of as well, that and symptom spotting 🙃

@H1994 I may need to get some as I don't think I can wait this time around!! It's crazy what TTC does to you!

@TC95 I have just purchased a summer gym membership to give me something to do to distract me 😂

@Aimee1995 hahaha oh no! But at least you can distract yourself in a good way getting nice and healthy, feel like I’m just sat around thinking about it

@Aimee1995 since writing this I have officially gone insane 😂😂😂 I hate not knowing

I'm TTC #2 @H1994 I highly recommend FRERs and they are the cheapest on Amazon. I might have 3 sitting in the draw ready for me to cave and test early 😂

@Aimee1995 ahhhh you'll hopefully not have time to get fit in the gym too busy growing a bun 🤞🏼

@TC95 how many DPO are you? You need to get out for some walks or shopping anything to distract and make the day fly or you could binge watch a programme. We were in the middle of lockdown when I conceived my son and I was furloughed so I spent my day walking the dogs reading watching tv and doing puzzles until the DH came home

@mummatara 6dpo today but I’m back in work next week so I’ll be fully distracted then, it’s just funny cause I took this time off to relax and destress so purposefully made no plans and now I really wish I had just to distract myself 😂 I’ve done a lot of baking and focusing on art projects but my mind still just seems to be thinking about one thing this month frustratingly!

@mummatara I'll have a look ;)
