Hey! I'm on my first month of TTC baby number 2!
I'm now approx 7dpo (I think!) And in the two week wait.
Anyone else?

Hey @Sparkle98 how far into the tww are you?

@Needtobuildabridge did you test this morning?
@LuckyStar511 you’ve done well not to test again! Have you had any more symptoms?
Anyone else tested?

I had a little more pink when I wiped this morning. Not a lot but from reading other posts people have had similar and AF has arrived a few days later, I’m pretty sure I’m out and can start to track properly from next cycle

Hello 👋🏻 I’m just starting out on the TWW. Can I hop on?

LS888 · 19/11/2022 20:02

I’ve made a pact with myself not to test before next Thursday 😂 Currently 6DPO. I ovulated late so want to give it enough time to show. Fingers crossed for everyone waiting 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Lialii · 19/11/2022 20:19

Can I join? Currently about 8 DPO (maybe 9DPO). Trying for #2, had missed miscarriage in September discovered at 10+6 (measured 8 weeks). Also had a chemical earlier this year.

I took a cheapo today which was stark white, will test with FRER tomorrow. All three times I was pregnant I tested positive with FRERS at 9DPO.

Lialii · 19/11/2022 20:22

@May94x Keep us posted! I did have this problem with FRERs recently, many tend to develop a very very faint line after about 10 minutes (so just at the end of the window that they are supposed to be valid for).

Needtobuildabridge · 19/11/2022 21:53

BFN for me today, but still early days. I'm going to test again midweek.

It's still so early in our journey, so I'm happy either way at the moment. 😊

GemLou88 · 19/11/2022 22:19

No more pink when wiping or any signs or AF. Had pink when wiping once last night and once this morning. If AF is on her way I wish she would hurry up!

LuckyStar511 · 19/11/2022 22:53

@GemLou88 I’ve just seen so many others get their early positives and then it end in disappointment and I just don’t think I can do that to myself or DH.
I’ve been having headaches but that’s it.
when I was pregnant with DD, my first sign was sore boobs but I haven’t had that this time but I’m still breastfeeding so it could be that if I actually am pregnant. I also didn’t get BFP until I was 2 days late last time so only time will tell I guess x

Sparkle98 · 19/11/2022 23:30

I’m not there yet , at the end of AF but can’t find any chat close to my position in the cycle so thought I could join in just to have people to talk to about ttc :)

LuckyStar511 · 20/11/2022 07:39

Well I woke this morning with cramps. I expect it’s AF but not here yet. Just wish it would hurry now so I can stop getting my hopes up and just move on to the next cycle

May94x · 20/11/2022 09:14

@GemLou88 how many dpo are you? Could it be implantation bleeding?

@Lialii so sorry for your losses. Have you tested again this morning?

Couldn’t help myself and tested again but BFN for me. I know I’m not out til AF comes (due in a couple of days) but it’s hard to be hopeful at this point!

GemLou88 · 20/11/2022 09:58

@LuckyStar511 I’ve seen so much of that too which is heartbreaking. Hopefully it’s not AF, but if it is I hope it comes quickly for you so you can move onto the next cycle. Sending hugs

@Sparkle98 always helps to have people to talk to who are going through it :)

@May94x did you test with another FRER test? I think I’m 9 or 10dpo. I’m not too sure. I got a good line on my OPK on the 9th that look either as strong as the control line or almost there. But I was on holiday and flying home the next day and didn’t get a chance to test again. On the 11th I forgot to take some tests to work so if I had my peak I missed it on my tests. Also I only stopped my pill 4 weeks ago and haven’t had a withdrawal bleed. Don’t know if I’ll be lucky enough to ovulate and catch straight away 🤷‍♀️

peaky297 · 20/11/2022 15:46

Afternoon ladies! Hope you're all having nice afternoons.
Any update @GemLou88 ?
I still feel like I could be pregnant, whilst equally being afraid to hope. Light cramping, non- typical CM for this point in my cycle, headaches and just so tired! My moods are usually up and down quite a lot at this point, but I'm alright 🤷‍♀️
Ah this wait 🙈🤣

I'd like to join please! First time posting here. Thank you all for being so open and honest in here. It’s been a real comfort today
I am mid TWW.

IVF round one with nhs in feb. Only one egg retrieved and frozen day one. Transfer following month, no joy. End of my nhs road.

Private with CARE. Had duo stim with genetic testing. Far far more expensive but had better results so far .

Duo stim part one, five eggs retrieved, four got to day five, two of the four came back from genetic testing normal.

Duo stim part two, 8 eggs retrieved, sent three for testing, one came back genetically normal.

Frozen transfer November 14th.

so I’ve had three egg collections. This is my second transfer but my first private transfer.

I’m really hoping for a good result this time.

is anyone else in the TWW?

Yours hopefully

Lialii · 20/11/2022 16:05

@May94x Yes, I tested with FRER this morning, negative. I'm only 9DPO, but feel like I'm out already because I always tested positive at 9DPO previously. Also, my nipples were killing me previous times, and now they're not doing much lol. I'll test again at 11DPO I think.

LuckyStar511 · 20/11/2022 16:27

Fingers crossed for everyone! It’s such a hard process!
I had cramps at 6am but haven’t had any since. Had very light pink CM a few times today but nothing else. None of this is normal for me at this point in my cycle but I’m assuming it means I’m out now. Have been very emotional though. Maybe a mix of the disappointment and hormones?!?? 12dpo and AF due in 3 days.

You're so close now. Fingers crossed for you xx

GemLou88 · 20/11/2022 16:43

@peaky297 BFN this morning. And a tiny pink dot when I wiped this afternoon. Some cramping on and off. Think it’s AF taking its time. Really want to not test again but I know I probably will tomorrow morning!

Hi @CR7! fingers crossed for you.

GemLou88 · 20/11/2022 18:08

I was using a different app to log my OPK’s, but I’ve seen a lot of ladies on here use premom, so I downloaded that. I added the photo of the test I took on holiday (9th) that I thought was close to my peak so thinking I ovulated the next day, but the app still says low? I’m so confused with these OPKs!

Looking for TWW buddies....
LuckyStar511 · 21/11/2022 08:13

Well AF arrived fully last night. Gutted.
Updated my Flo app because AF was 3 days early which completely changed its predictions for when I ovulated and my fertile window. Looks like DH and I may have completely missed the window this time! Maybe I need to start using OPKs?

Northbynorthbreast · 21/11/2022 08:19

@CR7 i had an embryo transfer 16th so I am here with you!

not many symptoms yet. I did get a few fanny daggers and I feel tired… but I have a toddler so….

firdt transfer gave us our son. Next three sunk without a trace. All bfn.

hoping for my rainbow magic sibling xx

CR7 · 21/11/2022 08:58

I’m absolutely exhausted but no other symptoms. Today is exactly a week since our transfer so not surprised to be feeling nothing. Back to work tomorrow for me. How are you feeling mentally? xx

GemLou88 · 21/11/2022 09:44

@LuckyStar511 sorry AF is here. I guess at least it’s early and you can move onto the next cycle. I think OPK are good to use. When I conceived my son I had ovulated a week later than usual and only knew from the OPK’s. Otherwise I might have missed it.
Sending hugs!
Another BFN this morning for me, even thought I said I wasn’t going to test. Think AF is on its way but taking its time

nadsc · 21/11/2022 09:53

Hey, can I join? I’m 2dpo today. Only managed to BD on day of peak test and ovulation day. Worries I haven’t done it enough but we are all ill in this household. We conceived our daughter cycle 2 using SMEP but obviously didn’t get round to doing it! This is cycle 1 of ttc #2

GemLou88 · 21/11/2022 10:10

Hi @nadsc fingers crossed for you

Im so confused 🫤 I’m still doing OPK’s and they are getting stronger again. Could I be having another surge and maybe I didn’t ovulate before? It’s really strange considering the way I’ve been feeling lately, the pink when I wiped. Any input welcome. I’ve attached a photo of todays OPK if anyone has experience
