This is my third cycle trying, I’m currently 5dpo and definitely symptom spotting already šŸ™ƒ 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 šŸ¤žšŸ»

@TC95 hahaha sneaky šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

I'm hoping bbt will confirm ovulation tomorrow šŸ¤žšŸ¼

TC95 · 29/07/2022 22:11

@mummatara fingers crossed for you it does! Ive just ordered 30 strips to come tomorrow, gonna start testing from Sunday cause I’ll be 10dpo then and I’m too impatient 🤣

@TC95 tbh I'm 99.9% sure I'm 2dpo today but would be nice to have it confirmed by bbt for that extra reassurance šŸ™Š oooh have you I'm so excited is that really sad šŸ˜‚ I'm so invested in everyone's journeys I can't help it!

TC95 · 29/07/2022 23:15

@mummatara yeah I get what you mean just to be extra sure! Haha aww thank you I’m nervous but will see what happens I’m just gonna test every day from Sunday leading up to AF and hope for the best šŸ¤žšŸ»I just don’t wanna get my hopes up but im feeling super positive this month!

Tww has begun for me and I’m going to start testing on Saturday 6th (8dpo). Fingers crossed for an April 2023 baby for all šŸ¤ž

anotherscroller · 30/07/2022 06:18

And by the way I’m cycle 8 and I do think 8dpo is too early to test, it’s just that I’ve got a very boozy 25th wedding anniversary that day so would be useful to know…
I’ll only let myself start to feel disappointed if it’s bfn from about 11dpo.

TC95 · 30/07/2022 09:11

@anotherscroller hi welcome! Got my fingers crossed for you šŸ¤žšŸ»What day is AF due?

OP posts:
anotherscroller · 30/07/2022 09:14

AF due on 11th August, and I have a really important work meeting on the 12th so I’m happy that at least I should know by then.
you? @TC95

TC95 · 30/07/2022 09:18

Morning everyone how are you all feeling? I’m 9dpo today and the Boyfriend has remarked that my breasts are looking ā€œfatterā€ and I’m generally more warm to the touch 🤣 I think by fatter he means a bit perkier but there’s a definite slight change in them nothing drastic, and I haven’t been temping so not sure if I am warmer but that might be why I was struggling to fall asleep for a while? All in all nauseous when we were in the car yesterday but that’s normal for me, and a couple of dizzy spells. I had very mild cramping yesterday morning again but that went away quite quickly. I’ve ordered the strip tests to start using tomorrow, I’m nervous and feeling positive but don’t wanna be naive and get my heart broken again 😭

OP posts:
TC95 · 30/07/2022 09:20

@anotherscroller yeah you’ll have some clarity before the meeting which is good and if you’re testing from 8dpo might even have your BFP way before then as well! I’m due AF the 5th

OP posts:
anotherscroller · 30/07/2022 09:24

Sounds good @TC95 ! I’m excited for you, but also healthy skepticism. I think we’re always disappointed whichever way though. Good luck! Love the boyfriend’s choice of adjective, classic guy

trailrunner87 · 30/07/2022 09:41

Morning all, šŸ‘‹

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ @TC95 guys really have a way with words!

I picked up some cheap test strops yesterday so I don't fly through expensive ones. Took one this morning and it was A BFN but its only 9dpo so still too early really to be testing

Going to try and hold strong and not test again until Monday/Tuesday. Let's see if I have the will power to hold out šŸ˜…

TC95 · 30/07/2022 10:04

@anotherscroller aww thank you I’m excited too but trying to tell myself not to be and not to get my hopes up haha! Yeah he really knows how to make a girl feel special 🤣 how are you feeling I know it’s early days for you still but are you feeling positive this cycle? šŸ¤žšŸ»

@trailrunner87 he just knows all the right things to say 🤣 I ordered the strips from Amazon 30 in a pack and they come today, I’m also 9dpo today but I’m gonna test tomorrow even though I know I’m gonna wanna test as soon as they arrive today! Got to hold out that extra day šŸ˜‚ let me know if you end up testing tomorrow as well but good on you jf you hold out till Monday/Tuesday!

J1290 · 30/07/2022 10:17

I can test from thursday! If AF doesnt show up before then. Deffo more cramping yestersy and today. But who knows at this stage?

TC95 · 30/07/2022 10:59

@J1290 ooh so exciting! You’ll have to keep us all updated! šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»

NiceToChat88 · 30/07/2022 11:06

Ahhhh you are all making me want to test early 🤣 I told myself I'd wait until AF this month as I'm spending SOO much money on ttc between supplements, OPK and tests!! I'm roughly 8DPO today and AF due on Tuesday so going to sit on my hands and try not to test šŸ¤žšŸ½šŸ˜‚

TC95 · 30/07/2022 11:26

@NiceToChat88 i was honestly going to wait till AF was due but I’m too impatient 🤣 honestly if you wait it out till AF hats off to you you’re a more patient woman than me! But Tuesday isn’t too long I have till Friday and I’m 10dpo tomorrow

OP posts:
NiceToChat88 · 30/07/2022 12:02

@TC95 I have quite short cycles 24/25 days so by the time I get to 10 DPO I'm almost due AF so I'm telling myself there's no point in testing early..... I'll see how long that lasts though 🤣

TC95 · 30/07/2022 12:13

@NiceToChat88 yeah just see how you feel it’s not too long a wait either way!

Hi šŸ‘‹ 9 or 10 dpo ttc#3. Same symptoms as PMS so no help there, but just have a feeling we were successful this month. I did a cheapy in the middle of the night and am 50/50 on whether there’s something there. Definitely a squinter or evap there now but test is invalid so long after. Not due period until Wed or Thursday but sometimes have spotting in the few days before so should know soon (unless having covid this month has messed things up). I’m going to enjoy my cheese and wine tonight and test again with cheapies each morning! Good luck to all of you x

TC95 · 30/07/2022 12:29

Hi @Lapin387 i know what you mean about having a feeling that’s how I am I’ve never been this positive about it and I’m feeling like it’s a successful month but we will know soon, I’ve got my fingers crossed for you šŸ¤žšŸ» Hopefully it was a BFP and you’ll have a more visible line tomorrow morning! X

anotherscroller · 30/07/2022 13:31

@TC95 i am feeling amazingly positive! I was just to happy to have a positive LH test after last month’s anovulation.
i really think this is the one …

TC95 · 30/07/2022 13:33

@anotherscroller I’m feeling the same this cycle and I’m not usually this positive! Fingers crossed for us both think there’s going to be a lot of BFP this month!
