@Lollywhite nice going that should be plenty x I only had two DTD this month due to being away camping. I'm 8DPO and don't think I'll test at all until AF is actually late on 1st. I'll be very proud if I manage that šŸ˜€

I'm 9dpo now - had horrible nightmares last night. šŸ˜ž

EdinburghGirl1 · 26/08/2022 06:11

@BellaTheDarkOverlord oh no poor you. Hope it gets better soon. Go you planning on holding off testing until late this month.

@NatalieSF yay definitely sounds like it's close.

@Lollywhite fingers crossed for a static today. Sounds like you'll definitely be covered.

I'm now 10dpo and haven't tested this morning so I've kept to me deal with myself not to test until tomorrow. Fully expecting a bfn though. I'm off today and got a busy day planned so that will keep me distracted and will be out of the house so can't test šŸ˜‚

Englishgirl9 · 26/08/2022 06:18

Good luck @EdinburghGirl1 , fingers crossed for you

jalu47 · 26/08/2022 08:41

@EdinburghGirl1 I didn't test this morning - all set for tomorrow!

@BellaTheDarkOverlord good strength to wait until AF is late - weirdly I think I'd be more upset if AF just turned up and I was still hopeful. I think I'd like to test and get a negative first - strange how our brains work 🄓

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 26/08/2022 08:49

@EdinburghGirl1 Goodluck testing tomorrow!

@jalu47 I know what you mean. If I test early I'll end up googling constantly which I do every month and it stresses me out. I'll hold off then. 9DPO today.

EdinburghGirl1 · 26/08/2022 08:55

@jalu47 well done for holding out. I'm the same I kinda prefer to know before AF then I can deal with her arriving a bit better and I'm in limbo for less time

jalu47 · 26/08/2022 08:58

@EdinburghGirl1 @BellaTheDarkOverlord are you temp checking - mine was only 36.72 this morning so a bit worried it's no higher by now.. too many things to obsess over!

Crazycatlady19 · 26/08/2022 10:03

I'm holding off as well. Last month I spent soooo much money on tests and it made me obsess more testing over and over again. I'm staying well away until it's more likely to be true (ie when I'm really late).

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 26/08/2022 10:27

@Crazycatlady19 Same. Haven't bought tests at all now. None in the house.

@jalu47 No never temp checked. I couldn't do same time everyday due to working shifts.

Couple of drops of spotting this morning (about 5:30am) keep thinking af is here due to feeling very wet (sorry tmi!) But no af as of yet, wish she'd get it out the way!

mamazac · 26/08/2022 16:36

Hey how has everyone been doing?

Been a bit quiet on here as been so busy but I did FRERs this morning and yesterday afternoon and had impossibly faint lines but I am still really early so to be expected if it is positive.

Have another test to do tomorrow.

@BellaTheDarkOverlord @EdinburghGirl1 when are you both testing?

elm26 · 26/08/2022 17:57

elm26 · 25/08/2022 16:41

šŸ™šŸ» hopefully this turns darker then it's onto the madness of clexane injections, steroids, progesterone. X

Tested the same faint positive this morning now spotting Ted so AF on her way ā˜¹ļø good luck to those testing soon! šŸ¤žšŸ»

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 27/08/2022 02:05

@elm26 Sorry x Hope AF doesn't arrive in full x

@kizzy97 I know what you mean by wet feeling. I get it before AF too x

@mamazac Goodluck!! I'm hoping to test after AF due which is due 31st. I'm being so good not testing so far šŸ˜€Im 10DPO today (Saturday). I've had no spotting yet which I get as early as 7DPO before AF. I'm hoping it doesn't come! Only other symptoms are slight twinges.

MIL asking if we going camping again next year. DH says to me not if we have a newborn. No one knows we TTC so trying to avoid MIL and holiday conversation 😁Rather have newborn than a holiday though!

@mamazac that's exciting. Good luck with todays test. I tested and got a bfn which I had totally expected but still can't help being disappointed so thinking it will be onto cycle 4 for me. I conceived my DD on cycle 4 last time so maybe it'll be the same. Got some reflexology booked too before ovulation so hoping that might help.

I know this might sound strange but when ttc#1 I ovulated first 3 times from left ovary and nothing then 4th cycle was from my right and got my bfn. This time round it's been the same, 3 ovulations from left side and nothing. Could it be my left side just isn't as good? Really hoping for right side ovulation next cycle. We go on holiday next month so most of my tww will be on holiday so at least I'll be more distracted. If my cycle is similar I'd be due the day before we come home. I think I'll try leave tests at home so this next time there will be no early testing

jalu47 · 27/08/2022 08:44

I got a bfn too @EdinburghGirl1 - was really hopeful during the start of TWW but less so the last couple of days. I have been doing acupuncture for a few months and she said really I should wait for the 3rd month as that's how long it takes follicles to develop. Positive for next cycle!

roorooA · 27/08/2022 09:13

I think I might be, due period tomorrow - this is just a cheap one...what you think?

Hoping for BFP August/September
BellaTheDarkOverlord · 27/08/2022 09:15

@EdinburghGirl1 @jalu47 Sorry for BFNs X you're not out yet though. Goodluck and hope AF doesn't show.

Really hoping I don't start spotting. I'm 10DPO and will start spotting anyday until AF now.

OP posts:
EdinburghGirl1 · 27/08/2022 09:16

@jalu47 yeah I read something about that recently. Fingers crossed for this time round

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 27/08/2022 09:29

@roorooA Definitely a line congrats!! Goodluck for sticky bean for you x

@roorooA that's definitely a line, congratulations 🄰

My2boysaremyworld · 27/08/2022 09:42

Hi all I'm back off my holiday now. I'm 6DPO and not feeling anything yet just tender boobs. Had some strange shock pains in my tummy and sides on holiday. We was walking by the beach and had this shock from no where!! Also been having like stitch pain but bad in my right side xx

kizzy97 · 27/08/2022 10:56

@BellaTheDarkOverlord still no af 😫 if she's not her3 Wednesday I'll do another test and it'll be a week then

BirdIsland · 27/08/2022 11:27

Hey everyone, just catching up, I've taken a bit of a step back this month as I was getting a bit down ā˜¹ļø Lovely to see some BFPs and good luck to those waiting to test šŸ¤ž

AF is on her way for me, at 9DPO. I've looked back at the app I used when we were trying for DD and I've realized my luteal phase hasn't shortened, it's my ovulation date that's pushed back by 3 days (CD12 to CD15). Not sure why, or how to manage that yet as on a 24 day cycle CD15 is just way too late. Any advice welcome!

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 27/08/2022 12:17

@My2boysaremyworld Did you have a good holiday? The shock pains sound promising x Hope this is your month.

@kizzy97 Im expecting mine Wednesday too but expecting spotting any day before as usually happens.

@BirdIsland Sorry you're having a hard time. I don't have advice on the short cycles sorry. Someone hopefully will x
