Hi all,

Anyone want to join on the long tww? I am currently either 5 or 7 dpo. I had a solid smiley on a CB on morning of saturday 29th which would put ovulation subday.. ish but then a very clear positive on the easy@home the evening of monday 21st so ovulation tuesday. So i am confused as to when i actuall ovulated! DTD on sunday monday and tuesday...hopefully i got caught it.

Felt a big pop in lower abdomen yesterday but maybe my imagination and wishfull thinking!

Anyone else waiting "impatiently" 😂

I’m 11/12dpo and as of this morning all my tests are negative except the ones that are “evap”. I just wish, if you weren’t pregnant you got your period really quickly so it was obvious 😂

I feel like it’s being in Limbo for two weeks every month. We’ve been TTC for over two years and whilst the GP is aware I’ve not asked for any support because I am overweight so I know that’s going to be the main thing they are concerned about.

@CJCW17 I am overweight and the consultant did tell me it would help to lose weight but did not dismiss my concerns because of that. I know not some doctors may be less helpful but I just wanted to share my experiences in case that helps.

I also comfort eat when stressed so the weight loss is not going to plan!

SkyBlue20 · 15/11/2022 10:58

I feel SO nauseous today and I swear before my boobs tingled. I've also had a few food aversions and very light cramps. I'm not letting myself believe that it could be pregnancy as I had that bug a few days ago and it could be the hangover from that and also none of my telltale signs from my previous pregnancies have arrived (acne and red patches on my face) but wow am I desperate to test. 9DPO now, must hold off at least three more days...

potatosconelover · 15/11/2022 11:14

Hello! First ever post, hopefully I don't break any rules.

I'm 10 DPO and while I know it's probably too soon to test... is it?! My cycle is usually 26 days and I'm on day 21...

Had some light spotting this morning and am wondering if it's implantation or if my period is mega early. It's been a stressful month so it could be a bit wonky...

Good luck everyone! X

@potatosconelover

Welcome. No rules over here, really supportive group here I must say.

10DPO can be detected on a FRER as proven by some of the successful ladies. Try not to put pressure on yourself by testing too soon and wait if you can. I too have a 26 day cycle. Spotting is a good sign if you don't usually have bleeding in between cycles🤞🏽 all the best.

potatosconelover · 15/11/2022 13:28

Thanks @FullofFaith for reassurance on all counts!!

2022TTCBaby1 · 15/11/2022 15:40

Hellp everyone and welcome @potatosconelover. Must say....love the name haha no rules here as @FullofFaith said! Can ramble and go into as much tmi as you like haha i would say a frer may work as early detection! Especially as cycle days are usually 26. Good luck! And keep us posted.

Hope everyone is doing ok. Looking forward to hearing peoples results who are close to testing. And to those...like me...starting the cycle again.

I am hoping this holiday is going to bring me some luck in this new cycle! I had some weird symptoms like spotting in previous which i have never had! And AF is heavier than i usually have had! Keep saying 'come on body do what youre meant to' haha but for now....cocktails by the pool at 10am is exaclty what i need!

@CJCW17 have you asked for any fertility tests? To check ovulation etc? My doctor was brilliant and did tests as soon as i asked to 'check everything was working'. They will probably suggest weight loss if this is something you struggle with. But i think unless you ask...you wont get help so go for it! You are more than in your right to do so.

I’m officially out as of about 10 mins ago! I’ve sent an e consult regarding support so we will see. My GP is a kind man, but it’s just something I need to get over. I think I’ve secretly been hoping that I would do it on my own and wouldn’t need that. 🤦🏼‍♀️

2022TTCBaby1 · 15/11/2022 21:56

@CJCW17 sorry to hear that. Onto the next cycle! Yeah i get that haha i am the same

Me too @CJCW17 . Two BFNs from the Early Response. Good luck with your GP !

CJCW17 · 16/11/2022 11:27

@potatosconelover the GP just called, we have an in house fertility specialist which I had no idea about. I know have a day 4 blood test, day “21” and an ultrasound booked, my partner also has the referral to have his sperm tested and then I have a review booked for the 14th of December. I regret not doing it sooner!

2022TTCBaby1 · 16/11/2022 21:18

@CJCW17 well done! And so quickly too! Let us know what the outcome is.

SkyBlue20 · 16/11/2022 22:30

Welcome @potatosconelover! You’re not out until AF arrives! When is she due?

hope you’re having a good holiday, @2022TTCBaby1 - cocktails by the pool sounds heavenly!

Sorry you’re out @CJCW17. Really glad you’re getting good support from your GP and so quickly! Here’s to the next steps ☺️

10DPO here, CD 29, still no AF but not a single symptom today either. Caved yesterday and did a test, despite knowing it would very likely be negative regardless as it was early, and needless to say it was a BFN. I picked up all they had in Tesco which was one of those ClearBlue six day early digital things, so a simple ‘pregnant’ or ‘not pregnant’, would rather have been able to see if there was even a squinter of a line! It claiming to pick it up six days early and coming up negative makes me think I’m not pregnant though. No more testing now until Sunday, if AF doesn’t arrive first.

potatosconelover · 17/11/2022 06:50

@SkyBlue20 well, my two apps disagree on when AF due. Flo says Saturday, iPhone says Tuesday. I’ve got my classic period symptoms so I’m feeling negative… as are my frer results!!

potatosconelover · 17/11/2022 07:05

That’s brilliant your GP has been so responsive. Good luck!!! X

SkyBlue20 · 18/11/2022 09:26

12DPO today. Couldn’t help myself and did a test while DH was out as thought it would be negative and needed to get it out of my system. Well…

Next to no symptoms so worried it’ll end early but let’s see. Want to get a line test so I can see how dark it is. Eeeeeek!!! Need DH to come home now but he’ll be at least another couple of hours!!!

Anyone want to join on the TWW??

@SkyBlue20 Congratulations!! So happy for you 👣
Further to your comments, from this moment forward only speak positivity into your life. Don't use words such as 'end' etc. It was meant to be and naturally you will be worried which is fine. You will make it through ❤️

BritishDesiGirl · 18/11/2022 14:57

Well, AF appeared today two days earlier than anticipated!!

Honestly, feel okay about it. I have been praying and taking strength from my faith which has really helped me this month.

Onto the next one. On holiday next week so let's see if a change of scenery does the trick.

Congratulations to those of us who got their BFPS. 🥰

SkyBlue20 · 18/11/2022 18:45

Thanks everyone 🥰

such wise words, @FullofFaith, I’ll be sure to remember them 🤍

I really hope this next cycle is the one for those of you still waiting 🤞🏼🤍🤍

kookyelephant · 19/11/2022 13:26

12dpo today! I couldn't help myself either!

PREGNANT!!!! I couldn't actually believe what I was reading!

2 years trying and 2miscarriages I'm just trying to fill myself with positivity! And I think I'm still in shock!

I'll ring the doctor on Monday for a progesterone pessary!

Sending positive energy to all those waiting this month and for those next month xxxx

BritishDesiGirl · 19/11/2022 19:46

@kookyelephant Congratulations 🎈
