Hi all,

I’m just starting my TWW and planning on testing around 29 October (unless period comes sooner which it did last month!)

Anyone else planning to test around Halloween?

@ChipAndDip still feels such a long way to go doesn’t it!😐

@Tbark yes defo, I think any change from the ordinary is something to look out for!ā˜ŗļø and no tips for symptom spotting, although this month I’ve hardly done any of it, I think I’ve given up a bit lol and just seeing what happens🤣

@Toastyteacakes hey lovely! I use the clearblue sticks too, love it when I get a static smiley🤣! Did the oils help increase cm for you? Xx

I'm due on 29th but can be 1 or 2 days either side.

@Tbark hoping it is an implantation dip for you!! I stopped BBTing this month as it made me abit obsessive and crazyšŸ˜‚ No tips to stop SS as I’m just as bad! But today I decided to clean my flat from top to bottom to distract myself!

What days everybody testing? I was going to wait until AF was late, which would be around Mon/Tues BUT its hubbys birthday Sunday and IF (BIG IF) I am lucky enough to catch this cycle, I would love to tell him on his bday. So debating to test on Fri/Sat (11/12DPO)

Hopefull1981 · 24/10/2022 19:32

Hi ladies,

I am officially PUPO. 2 embryos transferred this morning . Pic attached. Now the TWW begins. Technically I am 5dpo. I’ll start testing Friday morning. It’s going to be a long week.

hope you all are keeping well.

@Roxybabe that would be lovely to be able to tell him on his birthday! I would probably do the sameā˜ŗļø we might end up testing at the same time, is AF doesn’t arrive I’ll do it at the weekend xx

Tbark · 24/10/2022 19:36

@ChloeN and @Roxybabe I'm due on on Saturday so may try and hold put until Sunday......IF its BFP I'll have to hide it in a pumpkin.or something

@Hopefull1981 I'll.keep.everything crossed for you.that they're sticky 🄰

Harriet669 · 24/10/2022 19:38

@Hopefull1981 everything crossed for a sticky bean šŸ¤

Toastyteacakes · 24/10/2022 19:38

@ChloeN This was my first month taking the oils and also the first month since TTC that I had EWCM ! It might be a coincidence as I have read it can take three months to work but it has definitely helped me.

Roxybabe · 24/10/2022 19:40

@Hopefull1981 everything crossed!!!

praying for lots of BFPs this thread!! šŸ™šŸ™

also has anybody else seen an insane amount of pregnancy announcements recently?! I never thought they would bother me but I have started to find them hard. (Not from these threads though)

ChloeN · 24/10/2022 19:44

@Hopefull1981 sending you lots of luck, hopefully both little embryos stick aroundšŸ¤žšŸ»

@Tbark we can do it, hopefully we can both hold out🤣

@Toastyteacakes cant be a coincidence surely?! Glad it’s worked for you!!ā˜ŗļø

@Roxybabe everyone from love island seems to be pregnant at the moment 🤣🤣 that’s all I’m getting on my Instagram

Daisy1992 · 25/10/2022 07:40

@Hopefull1981 will keep my fingers crossed for you šŸ¤ž

Daisy1992 · 25/10/2022 07:47

@Roxybabe and yes to seeing pregnancy announcements everywhere 😭 it makes me feel like the absolute worst person for first feeling upset then happy for my friends when they announce it.

So I said I wasn't going to symptom spot but my boobs are feeling super painful, have got worse over the last day or so... can't even brush past my nipples they are so sore! But I do get sore boobs every month, so probably nothing! Strange though, I never had sore boobs before my pill that I can remember, but since coming off I have such strong symptoms after ovulation.... or maybe I've just never paid my body much attention until now.

Harriet669 · 25/10/2022 09:16

@Daisy1992 I definitely never paid enough attention until TTC! šŸ˜‚
Counting myself out already though, 8 or 9dpo and I have the same symptoms I have every month šŸ™ƒ

MendaciousMabel · 25/10/2022 10:48

11dpo and feel really good today but then I have what I think are my usual AF cramps. Was planning to test tomorrow so will do if AF doesn’t turn up before then but I’m not feeling very hopeful now

Billyv · 25/10/2022 11:32

I'm impressed no one has cracked and tested yet!

(Or at least no one has admitted!)

Good luck to everyone testing soon! I'd definitely be POAS with that chart @Tbark

And especially good luck to @Hopefull1981

Tbark · 25/10/2022 11:34

Thank you @Billyv .....I had a huge jump in temp again this morning but AF is due tomorrow so fully expecting a huge drop and AF to appear 😳 no symptoms at all now other than a few lower gripes so I'm not getting my hopes up!!

Billyv · 25/10/2022 11:42

@Tbark another temp rise is goodšŸ¤žKeeping my fingers crossed, would be nice to see some BFPs.

ChloeN · 25/10/2022 12:03

@Billyv i thought that, normally on these threads people end up testing from 8dpo🤣🤣

12dpo (I think) today, and had the tiniest bit of watery pink cm, seems a little bit late for implantation so thinking it’s AF turning up early for me! Will just have to wait and see!šŸ˜‘

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 12:17

Supposedly 4DPO and my boobs are aching like never before. They feel so heavy and I’ve had itchy nipples too.
I didn’t stop my mini pill until the 12th October so could have ovulated straight away?!
my app (granted it’s not reliable in this situation) says AF is due 4th November.
im confused šŸ˜†
I had only been on the mini pill a couple of months so I’m sure it wouldn’t take long to get out of my system.

Sorry for that absolute rollercoaster of a post! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜©

Billyv · 25/10/2022 12:37

Hello @TI2411 have you been tracking at all? I mean OPKs or temping?

I've been thinking oooooh I feel a bit shivery and shaky today. then DP mentioned feeling the same 🤦

Harriet669 · 25/10/2022 12:50

@Billyv @ChloeN we all have a small amount of self control it seems šŸ˜‚ I may cave Friday is AF doesn't show tho šŸ˜‚

AliceD7 · 25/10/2022 13:03

I also feel a bit strange today, feel a bit dizzy and nauseous (but not enough to make me think I’m actually going to be sick). I’m probably just coming down with something but hopefully not!

Still haven’t tested though! How’s everybody else today? 😊

OneHundredOtters · 25/10/2022 13:04

Yeah so I totally cracked this morning! 7/8dpo and no sign of anything.

I knew it wouldn't work though so only let myself do a cheap one. Saving the FRER for the weekend

Boobs continue to be sore if I poke them hard enough. And almost managed to convince myself I felt a bit sick on the tube this morning but having your face stuck in someone's armpit will do that šŸ˜‚

TI2411 · 25/10/2022 13:08

@Billyv nope, didn’t plan to start tracking that way until after my first natural period!
My boobs are so so painful!

Billyv · 25/10/2022 13:09

@OneHundredOtters 🤣so glad I'm not the only one lacking willpower... I was about to say the only reason I haven't tested is that I'm only 5dpo and that WOULD be nuts

Sorry it wasn't a BFP but it's super early, especially for a cheapy.
