Looking for TWW buddies....

[peaky297]

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, sorry I haven’t been active! It was my daughters first birthday and we had family down. Yes we did a test together on Sunday but I’d already been saying I think I’m pregnant 😂 he’s taken this so much better than my last pregnancy which was why I was avoiding telling him even though it was planned. Mental I know. How are you all?

Sorry AF came @anotherscroller mine came at 11dpo. Like you say at least no waiting around. It’s gone again now so waiting for my fertile window. App is predicting ovulation on the 16th 🤞🏻
@nadsc aww hope your daughter had a lovely 1st birthday. Glad your husband has taken it well, hope you’re managing to be excited now

Hey girls how is everyone doing?

I took a step back from this thread after my BFN last month as TTC was really getting me down and just wanted to enjoy December/Xmas.

So I’ve done no ovulation tests/BBT tracking and we’ve only DTD once this month. Only did a test because I have a smear test this morning and I’m in shock I wasn’t expecting this at all 😊little Christmas miracle

@May94x thats amazing!! Congratulations 🥳

Hello Lovely Ladies!
Firstly a big congratulations to those who have had BFPs - wonderful news just in time for Christmas ❤️
Sorry to have gone AWOL, I just needed a few weeks not thinking about it all! AF eventually arrived and today I have found I have a lot of EWCM, so it must be game time!

How are you all doing? X

@Nic2908 sorry forgot to answer your question- the seven seas TTC ones! Weirdly they didn't mess things up when I was trying for my first- I stayed regular and fell pregnant within 3 months. That was 4 years and a baby ago though, so my body has probably changed!

Hey @peaky297 how you doing? I was expecting O on cd15 but never came. Finally got a static smiley on clear blue ovulation tests yesterday and peak on ic OPK’s today. I’m on cd22 so will take ovulation as tomorrow then back into the tww I go. Looks like we might test around the same time 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@GemLou88 yes, sounds like we have synced! Will be nice to have a TWW buddy on the same schedule!
I've not used an ovulation stick, but might try one later!
Get BD'ing!! Haha

Oh @May94x that's amazing!!

Massive congrats

Still in the OPK stage here, it's as maddening as ever!

Static smiley clearblue digital advanced yesterday afternoon (yay!) but negative (decent but not as dark as a positive would be) strip OPK yesterday afternoon and this morning.

DTD last night and will do again tonight - was really excited about us getting the timing right with the static smiley.

But so confusing now the strip OPK still isn't positive. Ugh.

Assuming I do ovulate in the next 24 hours, we'll have DTD:

O
-1
-2
-4

@monsteramunch sounds like you have DTD plenty, so hopefully you will have caught your window!

Question for those of you who use ovulation tests and also have ovulation pain - does your pain come before, during or after your egg release in your experience?.

Hi all. Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. How are you all doing?
I think I’m 3dpo. I got the static smiley on the 22nd. Peaks on OPK’s on 23rd and 24th. Another static smiley on the 25th morning, but through the day my OPK’s went down really quickly. I’m taking 25th at O day 🤞🏻

@GemLou88 it was lovely thanks, hope yours was fab too?
Into the 2 week wait you go then! Hope you found time over the festive period to dtd! Feeling confident?
I haven't done ovulation tests, but from listening to my body / EWCM I think I ovulated somewhere around weds last week, so think I'm approx a week dpo.
Boobs are very sore and I've had some mad mood swings the last day or so, but that's not unusual for me at this time of the month. Trying to hold off testing for another few days at least as last month I spent a fortune on tests! 🙈😆

@peaky297 it was lovely thank you. And a relief when I finally ovulated. Fingers crossed we DTD enough. If O was CD 24, we managed to dtd CD’s 19, 21, 23 and 24. But I’m still not feeling confident. I’m only 4dpo so we will see. It’s too early to symptom spot. Those are some good signs. And I’m jealous your a few dpo more than me 😂it does drag. Are you feeling confident this month? I know what you mean on spending a fortune on tests, I know I did too 🤦‍♀️

Happy New Year everyone!

How are you all? Anyone besides me and @GemLou88 in the TWW at the moment?

AF is due in 3 days - my boobs are so effing sore in the nipple area and today my nips are looking a little darker and puffier than usual, so not sure if that's a sign? I have also been especially tired the last couple of days, but that could just be Xmas week combined with PMS!

@GemLou88 how are you getting on xx

Happy New Year Everyone! Hope it’s happy, healthy and full of BFPs!!

@peaky297 sounds like positive signs. When are you testing? I’m 7dpo today, yesterday and today I’ve had some mild cramping and headaches. I’m so drained today I’ve not long woke up from a nap on the sofa. Literally couldn’t keep my eyes open. But like you could be from this week and a late night last night. My boobs feel a bit heavier and my nipples slightly sensitive and I guess puffy is a good way to describe too. I checked my cervix and it seems to be quite high. Sounds positive on paper but we will see 🤞🏻

I'm in the tww as well. Due on the 8th of Jan. I'm 9dpo atm. Don't really feel any different to normal tbh. A few cramps today which could be typical pre-AF stuff. Only 'symptoms' I've noticed so far is I was woken up in the night with an insane cramp on 7dpo (May have just been in my head but who knows) and then on 8dpo woke up to a streak of brown on my pants. Like negligible amount, nothing when I wiped and nothing since.
Boobs have been a wee bit sensitive but nothing more than normal for this time of the month, same with bloating. Oh something random that isn't normal for me is my sex drive is high when it's normally non existent at this time.
Currently sipping a rum as I genuinely don't think I am but we shall see by next weekend

My sex drive has been high the last few days too which is unusual for me. Also darker areoles. I got a positive today at 10DPO. Good luck!

Oh how exciting!! @ScotsBaby2 congratulations!!

@Stilltobeseen that sounds a lot like implantation to me 🙏🤞 keep us posted!!

@scotsbaby huge congratulations!!! What a lovely gift for the new year! Any other symptoms?

@GemLou crossing my fingers for you!!

I caved and took a test... was negative but very aware I'm only about 8dpo and its evening pee. I shouldn't have done it really, but couldn't help myself 🙈 now I feel disappointed. I never learn! Haha

No real symptoms atm except some muscle pulling in my tummy. I had no symptoms with my son except the muscle thing until 12 weeks then had 2 weeks of sickness then nothing.
My daughter I was sick from implantation until 16 weeks then the sickness left and I got heartburn instead.

We will see what happens this time!

Hi everyone! I've been reading through the last few posts and really hope everything is going in the right direction for you all <3
I think I'm due on this Thursday, about 10dpo tomorrow. I had a weird shadow yesterday on a frer but getting mixed responses if it's a line or not. I'm gonna attach it cos I can't stop looking at the photo since I threw the test away 😂

Congratulations @ScotsBaby2 !

fingers crossed for you too @peaky297 and @Stilltobeseen. I agree it does sound like it could be implantation.

@Trojancheese i think I can see a shadow of a line. Have you got anymore tests for tomorrow?

@GemLou88 I have one more frer for tomorrow morning 🤞 Really hoping since I got my last faint positive at 10dpo it'll happen again!
@ScotsBaby2 congratulations how lovely! How are you feeling in yourself?
@Stilltobeseen and @peaky297 best of luck to you both on getting a bfp soon!! 💜 It all sounds do far so good for both of you

Thanks for asking. I feel like my uterus is really heavy!! I had a dream about giving birth so that's fun! Hopefully that's a one off.
