1-2 DPO time to TWW 31.10.2022

[Peeonastick22]

Hey hey, making this thread to lead on from last months. I’m 1 or 2 dpo today and I’m going to try and not symptom spot this month!! Also going to try my best to not test until 12dpo at the earliest!

what DPO are you all?

@Emmalou0607 I actually think I have a bug today! So annoying my throat feels gross and a bit mucasy this needs to go swiftly! 😂

They know we are TTC as we get asked so much we just say simply yes, it's easier then no one bothers to ask much about it! One of them - these are nice chaps just all a big drinky last night - to say ohhhhh this must suck hearing this when they weren't even trying...

Me: oh well! Just gotta suck it up, people are gonna have babies it's what they do! 😂

How are you doing?

I’m out, AF 5 days early. I really hope these last two cycles are a weird fluke as I’ve had consistent 28 day cycles all my adult life. Now on cycle 5 of TTC and the last two cycles have been 18 days and now 24 days with a 4 day LP and an 8 day LP

what is going on!!

at least I can drink for Christmas I suppose

Oh @Peeonastick22 that's so odd! We're you on the pull or anything before? A friend of mine who's pregnant at the moment was on the pill for years and when she came off had a couple of cycles the same normal length and then a couple of short ones and then got pregnant 🤷‍♀️ sending hugs your way though!

@PPop hope it's not that horrible bug that's doing the rounds, DH and me had it week before last and still have the dregs of it hanging around.

I'm now 1dpo and already impatient. Last month I feel like I was pretty chilled about it and my illogical brain today was like 'you should test' ... I did not test because I realised I was being a twat 😂😂

@Emmalou0607 not been on the pill for years! Could be because I’ve been ill on and off since my daughter started school

thank you, luckily Christmas will be a good distraction!!

Hi all I'm wondering if I can join in. I had a miscarriage 4 months ago at 7 weeks. First time TTC. Started trying last cycle. My luteal phase is around 11 days so short.

So I'm 8dpo and my period is due in 3 days on the 26th. All tests are negative at this point. Pretty sure I'm out though. I don't feel like it's worked.

Hey @Ella31 of course, welcome to the chat ☺️

We all started off here pretty similar stages of our cycles but are now a bit different (and a few positive tests for some of the group too.)

8dpo you still have time to get a positive! 🤞

Can be sick mess with your cycle? I had a lot of raw egg white CM, only finished AF on Sunday this morning. Going to cover the bases and DTD today and tomorrow, DH feels weird from 26th DTD at my parents 😂 but usually this CM is just before ovulation?!

@Peeonastick22 So weird about these two cycles! I have no suggestions unfortunately, but hopefully they settle down soon - do go to the GP if it happens again, they might be able to check your hormones or something? I hope you're not too down lovely, and can enjoy Christmas

@PPop So sorry you're unwell, lots of it about at the moment. I think illness can mess with your cycles, so definitely a good idea to DTD when in doubt (I'd feel weird about it at the in-laws as well, but needs must)! 😂

@Emmalou0607 Hope this TWW goes fast for you! Do you know when you're going to test this time (maybe a New Year surprise?!)

@Ella31 Welcome, and sorry for your loss earlier this year Definitely don't count yourself out at 8DPO - the most common days for implantation are 8 - 9DPO but can be later, so it would be less usual to get a BFP at this stage. FWIW my luteal phase is also on the shorter end (11/12 days) and I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant 😊

I'm doing okay - slight nausea has kicked in today, and got a 3+ on the Clearblue weeks indicator test, so hopefully things are still going in the right direction 🤞. Very grateful to be have been able to tell mine and DH's families about our news in person this Christmas, it's been the best present.
I know this can be a difficult time of year for a lot of reasons though, so I hope you're all doing well despite whatever is going on with TTC or pregnancy.

@Mortima I think any in laws would appreciate it... weirdly feel less weird at my parents then I would at his parents 😂

Yay I'm so happy for you! Hope you have some Nosecco in for Christmas Day 😂

Ladies, got a very very very faint line today on Frer. Currently 10dpo. Period due tomorrow. Not reading into this but let's see what the next few days bring. Would it be normal to have a faint line at 10dpo. My luteal phase is 11 days

@Ella31 totally normal! I was BFN until 12dpo when I got the faintest line then got darker and darker over a couple days 😊 congratulations! What a great Christmas present!

@Ella31 I'm crossing my fingers for you! Lines can definitely be very faint at 10dpo, it's still super early. Can you post a pic of the test?

Thinking it was an evap now - tested today bfn..period due today and 11dpo 😪

Sorry to hear that @Ella31 . When are you due on? You may still have time for a positive.

I'm due period today. No sign of af yet. I'm 11dpo. So my luteal phase is around 11 days

I'm due period today. No sign of af yet. I'm 11dpo. So my luteal phase is around 11 days

How is everyone doing?

How weird @PPop, I literally just thought of coming here and asking that!

I'm okay, horribly bloated today and not too sure why (my Christmas diet is not dissimilar to my normal diet, I run a lot so I'm always snacking 😂) so I don't think it's that but who knows! 7dpo today and very impatient. Seems like the longest TWW so far.

How are you?

@Emmalou0607 well christmas brought some news, not me but my sister she is super duper early doors. She's super stressed I am happy and just a tiny bit jealous! So lots of sticky vibes for her...

Us wise, I have had the most mucas I've ever produced downstairs! Not to be too gross but I have been almost constantly wet feeling it's strange never seen that before! So we obviously have DTD regularly inc at my parents which was strange but for the greater good. Feel nauseous this evening but I think that was just that ate too much garlic tonight, think I'm currently ovulating as weird twinges on my right! God have a blabbered on!

Thinking sticky thoughts for you! When are you planning to test?

@PPop ah good news for your sister! Despite the sight jealousy at least you won't have to worry when you do announce your own bfp that it will upset her.

I know what you mean being weird doing it at parents, very greatful to have have had ovulation just before Xmas so managed to miss that awkwardness. Fingers crossed for you, all sounds really possitive!

I'm going to hold out till I've missed my period I think so another 6 days to go... as long as I don't cave in cause being off work means much more time to be tempted

@Emmalou0607 I really hope so I wasn't sure if it's because I've still been slightly snotty that caused the extra CM! But hopefully that means that this is the one!!

Yes definitely pleased for her, keep hoping this is the one for them!

Ohhh fingers crossed this is the one for you! Barring impatient how are you feeling?

Hope you don't mind me jumping in here 🙂

Just wondered if any of you ladies could give me some advice...

I had what I thought was a period from 16th to 18th December. First day was red, second day pink and brown- then it suddenly stopped half way through the day on the 18th- nothing heavy either day. So took that as a period (i came off the pill 7 weeks ago so cycles are funny atm) and worked out this week was my fertile week, 28th being my Ov day. But then today and yesterday I've had just light brown when wiping after going to the toilet and bad cramps alongisde this. I've got a major headache and feel a bit sick too.. boobs are heavy and sensitive.

Did I maybe mistake the 'period' for an IB? But If that was my period I'm technically only 2DPO, so is brown spotting normal for this early? 🤷‍♀️

@anon1411 id take a test to be sure... I had implantation bleeding and it was just like a normal period, was light but lasted 8 days (longer then normal but with being lighter I wouldn't have thought anything of it) ...the only reason I new it was IB was because I'd already taken a test

Hi everyone - I hope you don't mind me joining! I'm TTC #1 and currently 2DPO. However, since coming off the pill in August I have had irregular cycles (currently CD76) with this being my second peak (but higher than the last one!) so not sure if I'm just getting my hopes up for nothing.

Not sure if it's possible to conceive on such a long cycle but had my bloods done to see for PCOS etc and all come back fine!

I'm not sure when to start testing so might try and wait for 12DPO. Seen some really positive stories on here though which is nice!

How is everyone getting on?
Still very much rooting for everyone who might be still waiting for their BFP. How are other people’s pregnancies progressing?
I’m 7 weeks + 2 and have had serve morning sickness for two weeks. Medication has been a life saver to help me keep down water.
