TWW starting 31.07.22 - Company Needed

[TheCakeIsALie18]

Hey all!

I'm on several other threads that I'm keeping up with but some of them are a tad long now, so I thought I'd start a new one for people to join.

Ovulation day for me today (30.07.22) so TWW starts officially tomorrow. AF due on the 12th. I have tests in the house, but my goal this month is to keep my mind busy and avoid symptom spotting! I don't plan on testing if I can help it. Want to avoid the disappointment if I can.

We are TTC #1 and we are in cycle 4 now. I had a chemical mid June when we weren't officially TTC but when it happened we realised now was the time to actively try. We wanted it so badly.

So that's a little about me and I would love some company in a slightly smaller thread.

Much love xoxox

Thanks @TheCakeIsALie18 - I find it so interesting how everyone feels things so differently. I don't think I've ever had noticeable ovulation cramping and very rarely get any proper AF cramps so anything outside of that feels very unusual. Time will tell!

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@Shefliesonherownwings I use FMU whenever that might be. I drink 3L+ every day so I go a couple times a night so have the same thing. Don't need to go when I get up. So FMU is whenever I happen to need to pee 🤣

@Hannargh yeah everyone is different. I'm just super lucky I don't suffer with anything except that and AF is like clockwork and is only ever 3 days long too. Very lucky girlie right here. It is helpful being able to feel ovulation though haha Xx

@TheCakeIsALie18 morning lovely how are you feeling today?

Anyone testing today?? ✨✨✨ xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x morning lovely! I'm good thank you. Line on FRER looking great today and easy@home shows on camera now so that's good. Logged the pregnancy as official in flow today ❤️ How are you?

Can't wait to see some more test in here this weekend 🥰🤞🏻🤞🏻 xxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 oh that's brilliant news so pleased 💕☺️ how exciting! What did it put your due date as? I'm really good thanks just very tired as the insomnia is keeping me up! 🙈

Me tooo! Baby dust to everyone✨ ✨✨🍀🍀🍀 xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@Hannargh oooh I forgot to say yesterday that if you did have cramping then it could have been implantation, especially as you don't usually feel anything. Bur you'd need to give it 3-4 days after cramping before testing as it takes that long for hCG levels to rise enough for really early detection xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x oooh nooo! Sorry hear about the insomnia! The heat can't be helping! It's given my due date as April 26th. What's yours? Xx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 it's okay I think under any other circumstance I'd be raging but because it's this, I'm incredibly grateful even being up at 3 😂 oh really!! It's given me 17th xx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x haha that's fair enough.

Yeah an online calculator says 20th. But the flo calendar takes it up to 41 weeks and the 26th. At least it will be before it gets too stupidly hot next year!!! Xxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 exactly and at least not massive in this heat 🙈🙈 when I was born, It showed (April) so it's a funny month for weather xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x haha yeah. Some years April is glorious weather... other years not so much lol. Well let's hope for us both next year it will be mediocre 🤣 xx

Morning, I’m 13DPO today and did a test but a definitely BFN. I know from past experience I would have had a positive result by now if pregnant so I’m certain I’m out for this month. I’m not too sad, this was our first month not using protection and I wasn’t properly tracking so we would have been incredibly lucky to have got a BFP.

Im going to order some clear blue ovulation sticks for next month as I’ve used those successfully in the past. Here’s to more BDing!

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 🤞🏼 😂 roll on Christmas I say! Xxx

[Hannargh]

Morning ladies. I'm finally late by all apps this morning. Currently refusing to wee until I've decided whether to test or not today or to hold out for another couple of days just in case AF is late. I don't think I win either way in this stand-off 😅
It sounds a bit mad but I've never taken a pregnancy test before so I'm a little nervous to do it now.

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@Shefliesonherownwings aww well if you are out, then I'm sorry! I hope AF turns up soon for you so you can start again! When is it due? Xx

@xttcbabyno1x oh god yes. I mean roll on autumn just to get out of this heat now!! I'm looking forward to Christmas... except for the no mulled wine or sherry part.... traditions gone out the window this year lol xxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@Hannargh oh my gosh please please do it xxx fingers crossed for you xxxxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 😂😂 aww! Haha, just think about how you'll be sat with a decaf tea or coffee with a bump and Christmas movies 🍿 🎄 I'm not a big drinker apart from I did have a festival booked for two weeks today, I'm going to go in the day and then leave as obviously can't drink now! Going to a friends birthday party tonight too, tonight is a J20 with a side of water and a good excuse 😂😂 xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@Hannargh omg omg omg do it!!!!!!! You're going to be fine. I prefer collecting and dipping... less messy in my experience haha. Good luck!!!! I am waiting on the results with bated breath xxxx

[Hannargh]

Thanks for the support and enthusiasm @TheCakeIsALie18 and @xttcbabyno1x - let's do this (once DH moves his butt out of the bathroom arrgh).

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x haha yeah, that is going to be lush. My kitties snuggles up to burn St Christmas is what I'm looking forward to. I'm not a drinker either really haha just have a few alcohol traditions with my mum at Christmas lol. I've got a formal dinner with the Air Cadets I work with tonight lol. There will be port, which I love, and can't have.... they all know I'm partial to port haha and I haven't come up with a good excuse yet!!! What excuse are you using?! Xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@Hannargh eeek I'm so excited for you. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻❤️❤️❤️ xxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@Hannargh oh my goodness let us know xxx

[xttcbabyno1x]

@TheCakeIsALie18 aww oh nooo hahah!! I was going to say that I have work in the morning (unlikely but saying i offered to as had a big order I wanted to close) so I'm driving and I never drink and drive, not even one and they know that!xxx

[TheCakeIsALie18]

@xttcbabyno1x ooh that's a good shout. I can't get away with that as we are walking there and back as the military camp is just across the road from us haha. My brother in law will be there and I don't want him to know before we tell our parents lol. They were ordering the port a couple weeks ago and I said order me a separate bottle as a joke... so it will be super weird now when I don't have any for the toasts..... xxx

[Hannargh]

Well! I've tested but there's no photo to share as it's a bfn. I've got some more sensitive tests arriving later (this whatever was lying around the house) so will try them out at some point but not even a shadow to report on this one 🙃 🤷‍♀️
