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 😄

@Pitstop1986 ugh yes I usually want to eat crap when my period is near 🙈 it’s a bit early though isn’t it? Who knows, ttc is so unpredictable.
Noo not really, I had lots of symptoms last month and thought I was pregnant but this month hardly anything so I’m just as confused.
only things I’ve noted is slightly sore breasts, still wet down there & just like niggling pains in my stomach but not period like. All of them are really mild though x

Pitstop1986 · 03/02/2023 14:54

@Mrsrobinsonx are you waiting for AF to be late before you test, or are you testing early?

Pitstop1986 · 03/02/2023 16:04

Another symptom for me- I feel absolutely exhausted, although this is my first full week back in work after 13 months of maternity leave, so could be that taking it's toll on me.

Day off tomorrow. I'd say that I can rest and recharge my batteries, but not likely with a clingy toddler!

Mrsrobinsonx · 03/02/2023 16:09

@Pitstop1986
I’m not planning on testing at all this month unless AF doesn’t show but we shall see how far I make it 😅
I hate knowing it’s a no this month then having to wait looong days to actually start my period.

ooh it’s annoying that AF symptoms are so similar to pregnancy, I was tired last month the couple of days before it started. X

Pitstop1986 · 03/02/2023 20:51

DH watching a program where the girl announces her pregnancy...

Looks at me
Looks at the TV
Looks at me

"When do we get to pee on a stick?!"

Hahaha

MrsL22 · 03/02/2023 21:05

@Pitstop1986 😂😂😂 love that!

Where is everyone up to? When is everyone testing? I’m hoping to wait until the end of next week when AF is due. Anyone else got another week ahead of them??

Pitstop1986 · 03/02/2023 21:20

AF is due on Wednesday (the 8th) for me, I'm weighing up when's best to test as I'm not sure when I ovulated this month...

Getting all the usual AF symptoms, so may just wait until AF is late, to save me wasting tests

Pitstop1986 · 03/02/2023 21:21

When are you planning to test @MrsL22 ?

MrsL22 · 03/02/2023 22:22

@Pitstop1986 Well I’m pretty sure I ovulated on Friday 27th… and my luteal phase is usually 12 days which also takes me to Wednesday for AF to be due. But I was hoping to wait as late as possible. Maybe even the weekend. Actually give myself a chance to miss a period rather than testing early?

Who knows - I just know I’m really not ready for another month of negatives 😢

Charl2701 · 03/02/2023 22:23

Hi ladies, hope you’re all well. So I’m currently 14 DPO from OPK. had a chemical pregnancy last month (December) so if I go from that bleed I’m currently cycle day 42 but testing negative, anyone have anything similar?

Mrsrobinsonx · 04/02/2023 08:46

@MrsL22 This is how I feel this month, I don’t want to see another negative test 😭so I’m waiting until AF arrives. if she’s late then obviously I’ll have to test but yeah (probably end of next week for me too)

@Charl2701 my chemical didn’t seem to effect my cycle much and I ovulated about 2/3 weeks later but I’ve heard for some people it can delay your cycle etc so that’s probably what’s happening, I’d give it a couple more days for AF to arrive x

SimplyChic · 04/02/2023 08:48

Think I may have line eyes again 🤦‍♀️ it always seems to look like something that turns into nothing 🤷‍♀️ if correct AF isn't due until tomorrow but with last cycle missed, I'm not sure how reliable it is

MrsL22 · 04/02/2023 08:54

@SimplyChic sorry, that doesn’t look like anything to me. Best to just wait until you’re definitely clear of AF and then test again.

@Charl2701 my chemical also didn’t affect my cycle and I ovulated on CD18 so I’m really not sure. Have you tracked with OPKs?

@Mrsrobinsonx sounds like we may be testing around the same time then. Fingers crossed for two BFPs!!

SimplyChic · 04/02/2023 09:00

@MrsL22 thank you. I will wait until after AF. I've had no more spotting since the other day which was strange. Still have AF symptoms though

Pitstop1986 · 04/02/2023 11:31

@SimplyChic I can't see anything, but sometimes a picture taken isn't as dark as what you see. Give it a couple of days. If you are pregnant, it'll give your hcg levels time to rise, so it'll give you a clearer positive. You must be experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions! I hope you're taking a little time out for yourself for some self care x

Downtherabbithole83 · 04/02/2023 11:37

@SimplyChic afraid I can’t see anything on there - what did it dry like? I’ve found my BFPs on my cheapies were very faint within the time and then dried darker (hoping this is just because it’s still early days). My clearblue tests were better.

Hope the tww isn’t being too awful @MrsL22 , @Pitstop1986 and @Mrsrobinsonx (and any others I’ve missed). Keep us up to date 🤞

Pitstop1986 · 04/02/2023 11:49

I was symptom spotting like crazy in bed last night... it took all my will not to test this morning!
I may test Monday or Tuesday, although common sense is telling me to wait until after Wednesday for a missed period

Mrsrobinsonx · 04/02/2023 11:50

@Downtherabbithole83 I’m still hanging in there, plodding along 😂

Downtherabbithole83 · 04/02/2023 11:52

@Pitstop1986 I totally get it. I so planned on waiting and failed miserably but that was mainly because I had such bad cramps that I thought AF was coming early. No other symptoms though…

@Mrsrobinsonx glad to hear it 😂

SimplyChic · 04/02/2023 13:52

@Downtherabbithole83 @Pitstop1986 possibly, unfortunately I threw it away early this morning 😖 I've had some creamy cm as well this afternoon so I'm thinking AF is on her way, but I will still be relieved even if she does show up at this point. Doesn't explain the random spotting though 🤷‍♀️

I'm concentrating on my wedding decorations this weekend, so it's being a good distraction so far!

Pitstop1986 · 04/02/2023 15:17

I cannot stop eating... feeling sick if I've gone for more than an hour or two between snacks

DDcame home early from nursery with d and v on Friday , so nausea could be down to that. I need to stop myself from symptom spotting and getting overexcited!

Downtherabbithole83 · 04/02/2023 15:38

@Pitstop1986 here’s hoping your nausea is for a positive reason and not for d and v!

@SimplyChic I had more cm than normal on the days leading up to my BFP…

MrsL22 · 04/02/2023 16:00

@Downtherabbithole83 how are you getting on? Have you had some line progression?

Downtherabbithole83 · 04/02/2023 16:14

These are my tests from late evening at 9dpo to today (bottom two) at 12dpo. They all look a lot darker now than they did within the 5 mins (where the two at the top were barely visible) except for the Clearblue which came up within the time frame.

Mrsrobinsonx · 04/02/2023 18:52

Well update from me today, still feeling… nothing 😆
not sure if it’s a good thing I haven’t got pms or a bad thing that I’ve got no symptoms.
