1DPO - Testing buddies? 😄

[Cossete]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone else is 1DPO today... I got a peak ovulation test on CD14 and CD15, today is CD16, so I am around 1DPO. We DTD CD13 & CD14, so I am hoping the sperm stuck around a couple of days!

Just wondering if anyone else is around the same dates as me and wants to chat during their TWW 🙂

[thinkingoutloud2]

Heya,

Yes I'm around that too. Always happy for the company in the TWW. x

[Cossete]

@thinkingoutloud2 I know I will drive myself crazy. Going to try to hold off testing until next Friday at the earliest. Do you use ovulation test strips? It's difficult to tell exactly when I ovulated, I got a 'peak' result on both CD14 and CD15...

I am hoping that DTD on CD14 has us covered!

[Chanteuse]

Hey! I’m one DPO today CD17 (I have longish cycles)

Ovulated yesterday using opks to confirm. DTD CD 12,14,15,16 so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

[Cossete]

@Chanteuse Ahh! How long have you been trying? I have 28 day cycles pretty consistently. I can't tell when I ovulated - I had two 'peaks' on the sticks according to my app - CD14 and CD15, so not sure when exactly I ovulated. But it means we DTD either 1 day or 2 days before OV, I am hoping we have caught it!

[LittleMissSunshine2020]

I'll be 1DPO tomorrow according to my app so I'll be testing at a similar time! Really hoping for baby no.2!

[overthinkersanonnymus]

I'm 1dpo and already got itchy fingers to test 🤣 ridiculous!!

I did only manage to DTD once this month in my window though so not holding on to much hope

[Cossete]

@overthinkersanonnymus Sounds similar to me. We DTD twice. With my previous 2 pregnancies we only did it once during the fertile window, so you are definitely not out!

We are cycle #4! How about you?

This is my first cycle using opks so I wasn’t sur what to expect but had a peak and then a significant drop so hopefully I’ve used them correctly! 🙈

I find it really difficult to talk about TTC irl as none of my friends are actively trying and when I’ve spoken to friends who have DCs they all conceived 1st try 😩

I’m 29 TTC baby no1

[Cossete]

@Chanteuse Cycle 1. I am 28 TTC baby 2! 😄We can chat on this board, none of my friends are actively TTC either.

Hi girls, can I join?
I'm 3/4DPO and planning on holding off from testing till next Friday too.
It's my 2nd cycle, finally got the hang of OPKs this month. I haven't done a pregnancy test ever before which is making me nervous!!

[thinkingoutloud2]

I've been using the natural cycles app, I've switched it to the plan pregnancy mode. I'm not very good at taking my temperature reliably - so not sure if it's going to help.

[overthinkersanonnymus]

Hope you're all doing ok!!

So I've just been to the loo and had a little EWCM at 2dpo!! For someone who's been ttc for a long time, I have a very short memory for what's normal for me or not 🤣🤣

Symptom spotting and POAS addiction commencing!

[LAgeDeRaisin]

Hello all! I'd love to join as I'm 1DPO today!
Already bored of waiting... and have previously been guilty of frantic testing many days before AF
Fingers crossed for us all

[LAgeDeRaisin]

I haven't told anyone we're TTC our third and I'm not sure why I feel so anxious about it. Cycle #2 after coming off the pill. Really helps to have people to talk to here about it

[Cossete]

Another day almost done! The wait is awful😂I either ovulated on Sunday, Monday, or yesterday! I've only been using the ovulation strips, so can't actually place it with accuracy.

[Cossete]

@overthinkersanonnymus I'm the same! Every little twinge is a symptom...

@LAgeDeRaisin It definitely helps having people to talk to, and I'm exactly the same with wanting to test already!

[Chanteuse]

I feel dreadful today! Only 2DPO so I know it’s not related but it’s funny how your brain can make you feel like it is!

it’s going to be a long 2 weeks 😅

[Cossete]

@Chanteuse I'm worried we missed ovulation, although we did DTD the day I got a peak ovulation test, so theoretically we should be okay... I'm driving myself mad! Hopefully we start to get some positive tests on this thread by the end of next week! 😌

[overthinkersanonnymus]

@Cossete I'm worried I missed ovulation too 😐

I'm looking forward to seeing some bfps on this thread!

[LMM91x]

@overthinkersanonnymus OMG your comment about having a short memory as to whats normal is absolutely SPOT ON!!! i literally remember nothing from
any other cycle when a sympotom hits🤣🤣🤣

[Cossete]

@overthinkersanonnymus @LMM91x Isn't that funny, I'm the same!

I do remember from my previous 2 pregnancies though, that I have always had implantation pain, its always felt like dull cramps and aches in my lower back... I currently have it, but that's just remnants from ovulation (I get ovulation cramps too, hooray! 😂). So if the cramping stops or I don't have any by next week, I think I will be counting my self as out.

[LMM91x]

@Cossete CRAMP GANG! i cramp constantly throughout my cycle…. Ovulation… 2dpo 3dpo you bloody name it !! I’m 6dpo tomorrow so I can start pretending it’s implantation cramps yay and getting my little
hopes up again🤣👏🏻. God I just don’t wanna see aunt flo for the next year …. is thT too much to Ask?!!!!

[Chanteuse]

Sometimes I think that’s the worst thing about it being baby no1 - I have nothing to compare it to! 😩

[MrsLaura89]

Hi all,

We’re ttc our 3rd, big age gap between them so want a final baby with a close gap (son is 2yrs 3moths).
I’ve been spotting since Saturday, it’s gone on to my liner once and is pink on wiping. Not due on until around 26th so I’m thinking AF is creeping up on me early.
BFN on strip tests, had some cramping and odd shooting pains today that lasted a few seconds. Last period was 31st October, I'm not hopeful this cycle, never used the strips before. Have bought ovulation ones ready for next cycle 😅

[Cossete]

@LMM91x I'm finding I am wishing the days away so I can get to next week when I can test! 😅
