TWW Buddies..

[cdn298]

Hi,

Currently trying for DC 2, already have a 2 year old DS.

I should have ovulated today 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Anyone else entering the TWW? Due AF 7th Jan but will probably end up testing a couple days before 😄

@30mummy they look like early positives to me! 🤞🏻

I’m now 5dpo and literally feeling totally normal 😂 usually I have some sort of symptoms in the tww but so far nothing much!

@Mrsrobinsonx Thank you! I bought some more, Don't know why we do this to ourselves, I wish I could just wait until after AF.
Honestly, I've not had many symptoms at all, Had a few twinges but my belly feels really itchy (Very weird) but last night I had a terrible sleep and woke up with a headache, so I thought I would test. the last 2 months I had every symptom under the sun and this time I've literally had nothing!

Lots of baby dust to you!!

@30mummy those definitely look like early positives to me! I didn't even know you could get a positive at 9dpo! did you have any symptoms? Congratulations

@MrsSprouse really? I've never had any other line before! Honestly I haven't really had any symptoms, a few twinges in my lower abdomen, actually felt itchy or like it was vibrating. I had a bad night yesterday and had a terrible headache so I thought id test. Other than that I had nothing, I am worried now, My AF is due on Saturday..

@30mummy try not to worry, I'm sure that line will just get darker over the next few days. I've always been told not to test before 10 days as its too early, but now I know its clearly not x

@MrsSprouse Thank you! I am just going off my app, I haven't done any ovulation tests, so I could literally be 8-10dpo.. On my app it looks like 9dpo but like I say i haven't tested ovulation. I do know that we only DTD once this month and that would of been the day before ovulation.. So surprised as I have tried to have a chilled month without stressing! I'll try confirm it with a digital later on in the week..
Baby dust to you!!

@30mummy ahh well keep us updated when you test next!
I’m definitely trying to wait until the day AF is due this month as last month I tested so early and at least I’ll know I only need to test once and if it’s negative I won’t be waiting in hope for days that a line might come up 🙈 x

I think I'm out for the cycle, 10 or 11 day dpo and I'm spotting and cramping mildly. AF not due until Friday but I guess she's early this month.

You're not out until AF arrives properly. I've got my fingers crossed for you that this is implementation

Still waiting for the high and peak, not sure if I'm using them correctly, and still no AF.

It's so draining 😪😔

Hello, just a little update - im either 10dpo/11dpo..

Baby dust to you all 

@SimplyChic How awful, I’d be so impatient to know what’s going on!
have you spoken to a doctor yet?

@30mummy Yay! Congratulations ❤️

@Mrsrobinsonx not yet, I think I will wait until early March (I have set a reminder) as I would then be the 3 months missed and it gives my body a chance to fully recover from the illnesses and hopefully back into a routine. It has been a stressful time lately on top of that which hasn't helped, so I'm hoping it just needs some time. If still by then nothing I'll speak to a doctor. I suppose worrying about it isn't helping me either haha

@SimplyChic I hope you get a peak or AF before March otherwise speaking to the GP sounds like the right move.

@30mummy Congratulations!!

AF due on Friday. I thought yesterday spotting was a one off, but I am also having some today again so I really think I'm out this cycle.

I think for me ovulation was Saturday. I got ewcm on Saturday morning, then on Sunday it had turned to more thick and creamy, which usually happens just after ovulation. So I think I'm 3dpo?

Af was meant to be due on the 8th, but could be later seeing how I ovulated late. I think I'm going to test next Tuesday, although I'm not holding much hope for this month. Everything seems a bit out of whack. Back on the clearblue ovulation test next month, so at least I know when I'm in my fertile window!

@30mummy this is amazing! Congratulations. Wishing you a healthy and happy pregnancy 💕

Here’s hoping we get a few more BFPs from this group this month 🤞🏼🥰

I’ve had like a sharp pain in my right side this morning when I got up and then just not really ‘pain’ but I’m very aware there’s something going on there like a niggly feeling. Too early for implantation or anything though so who knows! X

On the plus side I think AF may be on her way as feeling some PMS this week (bloating, irritable, tired and acne, random nip pains, headaches and backpain), it's entirely possible I missed my peak as I started the OPK's the night before predicted ovulation (if my app is correct) and there was a high chance of me not using them correctly based on my knowledge so far. I will wait and see 🙂

10 dpo and I think I see something… but I’m not convinced it isn’t just an evap. Took an LH test as well because I’ve seen that they sometimes get darker too as hcg levels increase…

I’ve been having really bad cramps and assumed AF was coming earlier than I expected as I’ve got no other symptoms at all.

What do you think ladies?

@SimplyChic when I first used opks I discovered I was usually ovulated 2 days earlier than my app suggested so maybe this would explain it? At least if AF arrives you can start monitoring LH slightly earlier in that cycle and hopefully put your mind at rest? xx

Thank you all for the well wishes!

@Downtherabbithole83 that looks like a very faint line that I got which made me get some frers.

Im 12dpo today and my line isnt getting any darker? Is this normal? Sorry this is my first and from what im searching they normally get darker? From top to bottom its 9-12 x

@Downtherabbithole83 that definitely looks like a faint line to me! Fingers crossed it carries on 🤞🏼

@30mummy don’t be disheartened. I would just leave it now for a few days - try not to add stress. If they start getting lighter then I would begin to question it as with my CP they just got lighter and lighter.

After trying for a relaxed month of no tracking etc… I’m in the tww and driving myself mad.
Think I ovulated on Friday from just reading my bodies signs (ewcm Thursday, right sided pains on Friday) and since Sunday my boobs have been sore and nipples tender which I never get. I know it’s too soon for me to actually be pregnant yet but just kicking myself because I’ve done so well with the no stress thing and now I’m back to symptom spotting and living my life on google 🙈

@Downtherabbithole83 that looks like an early positive to me! 👏

@30mummy I’ve heard that every test has different amount of dye in it so not to worry about darkness, however if they get lighter or turn negative it could mean chemical x

@Downtherabbithole83 I definitely see something! This is so exciting. I love seeing all of these positive pregnancy tests! It really puts a smile on my face! You'll have to update tomorrow with a stronger line!

I'm guessing that I'm 5dpo and for the last 4 days I've had long shifts keeping me busy, however now I'm off until Sunday so am going to be driving myself mad symptom spotting!

@30mummy I'd step away from the tests for a couple of days or you'll drive yourself mad. Can you book yourself in for a mani/pedi or a massage for a pamper to relax yourself and take your mind off things?

thetests can fluctuate in darkness depending on how hydrated you are and the time of the day that you test. Try not to worry. (Easier said than done) sending hugs
