Morning all.

Think I'm 1 or 2dpo on my second cycle TTC #1 and I'm 34. Don't know how many times I told myself I'm going to relax this time and 'whatever will be , will be' but here I am having stared at and counted calendar days more than once this morning...

Anyone else in the tww and want to join me? Interested to know how people are feeling and keeping distracted/sane.

Hi OP!
think I ovulated over the weekend although not 100%! I’m due on around the 14th October. I’ve had 2 chemicals over the last 4 months so hoping this month is the month 🤞🏽Xx

Kjs16 · 04/10/2022 14:11

Hi both,

AF is due 15th/16th Oct, I’m already feeling like time is dragging!! 😵‍💫

DandelionPockets · 04/10/2022 17:51

3rdtimelucky15 fingers crossed for you 🤞 and sorry to hear about the chemicals. Is this your first you're trying for?

Kjs16 im due 16th too. Off work this week and I thought it would help me be distracted but I think the free time is actually worse 😂

@DandelionPockets thank you! Not my first I have a 5 year old Dd but took a year ttc her. Currently been ttc for 2 years.
Have you been taking any supplements or doing anything different this month?x

Kjs16 · 04/10/2022 19:05

@3rdtimelucky15 sorry to hear you’ve had some trouble 😥

Kjs16 · 04/10/2022 19:07

@DandelionPockets I know, I only work the latter part of the week and I’m glad I’ve got the distraction for the next few days! Then just another week after that 🫤

3rdtimelucky15 · 04/10/2022 19:19

@Kjs16 thank you! How long have you been ttc? Have you don't anything different this month?x

Kjs16 · 04/10/2022 19:23

@3rdtimelucky15 I have a 2 yo, and only started ttc again last month! I’m so impatient 🤭 it took us almost a year to conceive DS so I’m really hoping it will be quicker than last time! Doing all the stuff I did last time, not that I have any idea if it helped, opks, vitamins, and preseed. How about you?

3rdtimelucky15 · 04/10/2022 19:33

@Kjs16 hopefully it won't be too long for you!🤞🏽
I have pcos as well which doesn't help🙄 haven't been trying anything different, taking folic acid and vit D xx

Kjs16 · 04/10/2022 19:36

Oh no, I’m crossing everything for you!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

NatalieSF · 04/10/2022 20:06

Hey 👋 AF due 12th, currently ttc #4 and this is our 3rd cycle. Feel like I've been trying for ages though, each month takes forever lol already have a 6,8 and 10 (tomorrow) year olds

Kjs16 · 05/10/2022 11:23

@NatalieSF hey 👋🏼 Wishing you lots of luck! 👶🏼✨

vitahelp · 05/10/2022 13:14

Hi ladies, I'm 3dpo here and feeling a bit restless. It's my 5th cycle trying and I already have a daughter who is 4 years old, got pregnant straight away back then so it's stressing me that it's taking longer this time.

Chaoscontrol · 05/10/2022 15:42

Hello! TTC #1 and currently on 6dpo. I have been crampy the last few days and desperately trying not to test as I know it's still too early! Heartburn last night but it might have been the huge dinner I ate 😂

Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🏻🤞🏻

3rdtimelucky15 · 05/10/2022 16:26

@NatalieSF
@Chaoscontrol
Fingers crossed for you both!🤞🏽
How long have you been ttc @Chaoscontrol?xx

Chaoscontrol · 05/10/2022 16:40

@3rdtimelucky15 Not long at all, this is cycle #2.
We didn't want to go down the route of sex on certain days yet, we are just active around fertile days more than the rest of the month 😂 DTD a day before ovulation and 2 days prior to that so hoping it sticks.

I get in my head though which is my biggest issue. And this tww is a draaaaaag..

How are you feeling? I'm crossing my fingers for you this one sticks 🤞🏻

3rdtimelucky15 · 05/10/2022 16:47

Completely understand where your coming from! Not putting any pressure on yourselves and see what happens.

Yeah I'm feeling okay thank you!☺️

Havanalily1806 · 05/10/2022 17:35

Hi!

Joining in for some TWW company 😊

CD 31 8DPO, TTC#1 cycle 2 of TTC.

I've felt different this month to last month, I've had what I would describe like a dull ache in my stomach, but something that if it wasn't the TWW would I have noticed?

Last night I had a couple of sharp pains, in my stomach and top of my groin, but again not sure I'd notice if it wasnt the TWW and it was very brief!

Today all day I've felt really nauseous and that's not something I ever usually suffer with, thought it maybe from dehydration or hunger but it's continued all day after drinking and eating..

Don't want to start thinking it could be as it probably isn't but the nausea is really out of the ordinary for me, really don't want to get my hopes up. BBT is still raised but looking at last month it was only the couple of days before AF that it started to drop

Chaoscontrol · 05/10/2022 17:46

@Havanalily1806 hi!

Im thinking the same as you, did all these twinges and pains happen before I was in the tww! Mad what our brain does. When is AF due? When do you think you will test?

I am got heartburn this eve and trying not to convince myself its a symptom 😂

Havanalily1806 · 05/10/2022 18:04

@Chaoscontrol

So last month my Luteal phase was 12 days I think! So Sunday, possibly Monday..

I'm not sure when I will test, I want to think I will hold out, but I think it'll depend on symptoms and if anymore appear...

It's awful isn't it, wish I didn't have anything so I wouldn't start to think there's a possibility

Chaoscontrol · 06/10/2022 09:06

Good morning! How are people feeling today?

Anyone have previous pregnancies with no implantation spotting? I'm now over thinking that.. 7dpo and I'm convinced I'm out this month but trying to remember... It's only 7dpo 😂

FigBatSue · 06/10/2022 10:23

Hi all!
I'm usually a lurker on here, it always feels reassuring reading people are in the same boat!

Currently TTC #2
I had my implant removed in June, had a chemical pregnancy in July which lead to a 42 day cycle.
My cycle is usually about 30 days.
CD1 was 13.09, so I may have ovulated 29th? So would that be 7DPO today?
I'm new to all this. With DD, we conceived in the first month of trying and I took a test the day I missed my period. Now, I'm pretty much POAS as soon as AF has stopped! 😅

Fatgrace1 · 06/10/2022 11:10

I am 8dpo and couldn’t resist the wait so tested at 6dpo and then again today both had very faint lines but not getting darker. The tww is killing me and I am a poas addict! Good luck to all on here 🤞🏻

Chaoscontrol · 06/10/2022 15:14

I stupidly tested at 7dpo and now I'm fully deflated with a bfn.. I have had cramps all day and had a feeling today would show something.. Nothing. I'm driving myself insane 😂

Havanalily1806 · 06/10/2022 17:46

@Chaoscontrol I haven't experienced any spotting either...

I'm 9dpo today.
Days 6-7 I had like a dull ache in my stomach and a few twinges, one in my groin. (No idea if I'd have noticed this outside of TWW!)

Days 8-9 I've had really strong nausea today and yesterday, I'm absolutely exhausted tonight and I think I'm going for a wee more...

It's so hard to know if you're imagining it all 😂 I definitely feel different to last month. My boobs have also just started to be a little painful, where last month that happened quite quickly and went off before AF. My BBT also rose today so I'm interested/scared to see what that is in the morning.
