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?

@nadsc amazing! That’s a great line. Congratulations 🥳 Did you tell your Husband?
I will probably test tomorrow but expecting it to be a BFN. Cramping has stopped but still have a backache, now a headache too, was a little bit sick earlier after lunch but it could all be down to stress at work

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 06:34

BFN for me this morning. I know it’s still early at 9dpo. See what tomorrow brings

Stilltobeseen · 30/11/2022 08:35

Feeling really down today. I seem to have every symptom under the sun which I know probably means I'm not pregnant. I actually think I might be coming down with something (DD has a bit of a cold atm). I just feel like I have really shitty pms. Only approx 6 dpo. I have no clue if I even ovulated this month as the two tests I did which I'll attach if I can were as dark as they got then went negative again. I'm only only on cycle 1 and I feel soooo shitty. This was what put me of trying again for so long, this process. I feel like I'm not being fully present in my daily life because all I can think about it if I'm pregnant or not whichnisnt fair on the wonderful DD I already have.

@GemLou88 its a no for me to. Sending love. Beyond devastated. Fourth failed transfer. I feel so let down by my body.

nadsc · 30/11/2022 08:48

@GemLou88 you’re still not out! I got a BFN at 9dpo too.
I haven’t told my husband yet, I’m going to wait until Saturday where we can do a test together and I’ll just pretend I had no idea 😂

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 09:27

@Stilltobeseen sending hugs. I know it’s so stressful and consuming sometimes. And easy for me to say it’s still early and don’t count yourself out when it’s all you can think about and you just want to know. But it is still early. Those OPK’s look strong and could be your peak. Here if you need to chat

@Northbynorthbreast sending love too. Was today your test day? I can’t imagine how stressful going through transfer is. Sending a hand hold and here if you need to chat too

@nadsc thank you! I know it’s still early but comforting to know you got a BFN at 9dpo and got your BFP the next day. Can’t wait to hear how your husband reacts. Hope you’re acting is good 😂 how you feeling today? I’m hoping the cramping I felt yesterday was the start of implantation

Stilltobeseen · 30/11/2022 11:01

Thank you @GemLou88 just feeling really down today which if this is pms makes sense haha. Also as the morning has went on I definitely have a full blown cold.

Alysskea · 30/11/2022 13:33

Sorry to hear you’re feeling rubbish @Stilltobeseen !

Does anyone know if infrequent cramping in your uterus is a sign that you are definitely out? Feels a bit like period but I wouldn’t normally get it this early. Can this happen in pregnancy?

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 14:34

@Stilltobeseen there’s so many people with bad colds at the moment. I’m only just getting over one and it’s taken me a while to shake it off. Hope you’re feeling better soon. Ttc journey is so full of ups and downs.

how many DPO are you @Alysskea? I don’t know if I can give any advice, I just know that I’ve been having the same the last couple of days. I’m 9dpo today and cramping seems to be on and off. But I’ve got a constant mild low backache too

Don’t know if this is a positive sign but today and yesterday I’ve randomly brought up my lunch. If it’s not, my body is really playing tricks on me

TulipVictory · 30/11/2022 15:45

I had a chemical last month. On the day AF was due I had a very faint line on a pregnancy test. However, three days later AF came full force. I was gutted I tested and said I would only do it again if I was late. My cycles are never later than 28 days so this cycle I am currently day 32, I've tested this afternoon and this is the test? I feel like this is way too faint for being late? Do you think it will be another chemical? Thanks for looking 😊

peaky297 · 30/11/2022 16:02

@nadsc first of all - congratulations!! How are you all doing?

Sorry I've been a bit AWOL, I needed to take a step back from it all as I've been driving myself loopy.

My last test was Sunday and still very very faint, so think it may be a chemical or just i have had a crap run with indents and evaps. That being said, still no AF so that would make me over a week late now which is unusual. I don't have the heart to test again as I strongly suspect I'm not pregnant.

I started taking the seven seas TTC vitamins last month and I read the other day that there are other women whose cycles went all over the shop after taking them with long cycles etc so maybe it's that? 🤷‍♀️ I've stopped taking them now just in case.

Just want my period now to get back to normal - think it may come soon as I have sore boobs and my usual PMS symptoms so 🤞🙈

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 19:00

@TulipVictory sorry to hear about your chemical, I had a chemical after my mmc too. So disheartening. I conceived me son the cycle after though and I ovulated late on that cycle. Have you tracked your ovulation? Could it be a late ovulation for you too?
Hey @peaky297 i was wondering how you’re doing. Don’t blame you for stepping back. Can be too much sometimes. Completely get just wanting AF to come if you’re not pregnant. It’s so frustrating. Hope you’re ok. Sending love

TulipVictory · 30/11/2022 21:17

@GemLou88 thanks, I'm pretty sure I ovulated on CD 17 and I had some pink on wiping throughout the day on CD27 & 28 but nothing further. Currently CD32. This reminds me a lot of last month though

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 22:18

@TulipVictory it could still be a faint positive. If you ovulated on CD17 and had pink when wiping CDs 27 and 28, that could have been implantation? And now the test it picking it up? Are you planning on testing again? Fingers crossed for a positive outcome for you.

GemLou88 · 30/11/2022 22:20

I’m feeling deflated and frustrated this evening. This waiting around for either a positive test of AF is really getting to me. Hopefully a good nights sleep will help 🤞🏻hope everyone is doing ok

GemLou88 · 01/12/2022 09:45

It’s another BFN for me today. Don’t know if my eyes are playing tricks or if there is a shadow of a line but I’m taking it as a negative. Can anyone else see anything or confirm my madness? Also did an OPK and it’s jumped up a little but don’t think it means much.
Anyone else tested this morning?

Looking for TWW buddies....
TulipVictory · 01/12/2022 10:07

@GemLou88 think I'm just going to leave it a few more days and see what happens 😬

Had a good look at your test and not sure I can see a line but again, sometimes it's hard to tell on photos.

GemLou88 · 01/12/2022 10:15

@TulipVictory fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻 thanks for having a look. Think it’s the insanity of looking at these blank tests the last few days 😵‍💫

TulipVictory · 01/12/2022 13:55

@GemLou88 I did give in this afternoon and get one of those pound shops ones that you can supposedly get a positive 6 days early. The line, however is still just as faint so I don't know. I'm now 5 days late. I have been feeling quite sick this afternoon though with a metallic taste in my mouth

TulipVictory · 01/12/2022 13:56

When is your period due @GemLou88

Alysskea · 01/12/2022 16:16

Got a BFN today at 12DPO. Also got a big fat cold bringing me down and what is probably PMS. Not coping very well I think I’d convinced myself this was the one. I suppose I should get off these threads but it’s hard somehow - don’t want to accept the negative.

GemLou88 · 01/12/2022 19:43

@TulipVictory a line is still good. Is it a sensitive one? Sometime those ones are not as sensitive so a faint line on that is still progression! So happy for you. I have no idea when AF is due, I came off my pill over a month ago and have had no period since. Just know I had a peak test and ovulation pain on the 21st. I know realistically I’m out this month but was hoping there was still a chance. Just consumes you.

@Alysskea so sorry you had a BFN. Sending love. I know these threads can be hard sometimes but they can be so supportive too. Just do what is best for you 💐

Nic2908 · 01/12/2022 21:54

Can I jump on too please? Cycle one of trying for baby number 2. Little boy is two in two weeks. 8dpo today with a big fat negative. Feeling ok though actually. Disappointed but ok. Xx

GemLou88 · 02/12/2022 08:45

Hi @Nic2908 8dpo is still early. Don’t count yourself out. When are you next testing?

I tested again this morning 11dpo BFN but there’s pink when I wiped. I’m pretty sure AF is here and to be honest I’m relieved if it is. I’m fed up of testing and driving myself crazy. I had such intense cramps last night that came on suddenly but didn’t last long.

Good luck to anyone testing today 🤞🏻

monsteramunch · 02/12/2022 09:26

Morning everyone, how are you all feeling today?

I'm approx 8/9DPO and had sharp stabbing on my right side last night (well this morning really, at about 5am) so of course I immediately got excited about it potentially implantation pains even though every month I say I won't symptom spot!

They only lasted an hour or so though. Not sure that's even what implantation pains feel like, or if they are more like period cramps? This was sharp stabbing pain rather than dull ache or horrible cramps.
