9dpo today and the symptom spotting is real, I'm not sure if they're real symptoms or my imagination! This tww is a killer!

ttcat37 · 12/03/2023 21:20

Hi ladies. I’m 12dpo with vv faint lines. Had chemicals Dec and Jan so hoping this one sticks 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 due on any time between Weds - Saturday.

Mummyme87 · 13/03/2023 06:59

9dpo and I’ve tested with a cheapie even though I know it’s super early. If I squint hard I can see a vvv faint line. So BFN for now

@uop21 That’s so good that your husband is really supportive. Mine has been amazing too, even when I’m having random spirals of anxiety he’s always there for me. Obviously he doesn’t have to experience the physical stress I do, but he does really in terms of trying to understand what I’m going through.

I hadn’t told anyone we were TTC originally, but I have now told some people about the miscarriage (and I have found it a relief to talk about it), so they’re now aware that we’re TTC.

In terms of age, I do sometimes have moments of panic about whether I could have left it too late, especially given that I’ve know for a couple of years that I have PCOS. But then I remind myself that I’m still several years away from 35, and even after 35 it is still completely possible to have a baby many years after that. And also, in terms of life stability, job, relationship etc, I wouldn’t have been in a position to TTC much earlier than we did.

I’m planning to test once my period’s late. Early tests are so tempting, but they’re expensive and on the month I did become pregnant I did one and it didn’t pick it up.

I'm so glad you have a good support network around you especially after your miscarriage.

When is AF due for you? Mine is due on the 19th which is Mother's Day so hopefully it doesn't come, it feels so far away and I would love to know I'm pregnant on this day, it would make this journey so special.

The disappointment of seeing a negative test is heartbreaking, I think that's why I wait until AF arrives now because at least I haven't gone through an extra emotion of feeling disappointed with seeing a negative test. Fingers crossed this is our month.

Fairylight102 · 13/03/2023 10:24

@uop21 Mine is due on 20th (assuming I have a more normal cycle this time not another weird short one).

Mother’s Day coming up has crossed my mind as well… I’m slightly dreading my period will arrive that day and it will make me feel even worse about the miscarriage 😢 It would be amazing for you though if your period was late on that day and then you found out you were pregnant!!

I really hope your period doesn't come on the 20th. You deserve to have your rainbow baby. How have you been feeling? The last few nights I've woken up in the middle of the night sweating which is unusual for me. I can't stop eating either 😂

Fairylight102 · 14/03/2023 16:53

@uop21 That’s interesting - fingers crossed this could be a sign of something for you!!

My BBT is getting steadily higher and I felt a tiny bit nauseous/sensitive to smell this morning so inevitably I’m starting to get a bit hopefully that I could be pregnant because the smell thing was the main symptom I had when I was pregnant before. It could be a completely coincidence though, or even a figment of my imagination because I so want the signs to be there…

Really good news about your BBT increasing, hopefully it continues and it's all positives signs. I've got a busy week to keep my mind off testing before Sunday. Let me know how you're doing and I'm always here if you need a chat ❤️

lottieb92 · 15/03/2023 07:17

good luck everyone else on their testing days hope you all get that BFP im officially off to the TTC December thread I hope I don’t see a lot of you there !!!🤞🏻✨

Seasidegirll · 15/03/2023 10:26

@lottieb92 me too! Good luck guys 🤞🏻💫

hopeandpray1988 · 15/03/2023 14:52

Been quiet on here as I was struggling with the whole ttc if I'm honest. Went onto the December thread as I'd had pink cm on Monday at 9/10dpo as I usually do before af but tested this morning and got these... just done the bottom easy at home and it's still there!?

NatGee · 15/03/2023 14:58

Hope I can join if possible. 13dpo today, and had a BFN yesterday on a cheapy test. Looking unlikely this month but holding out hope! AF is due to arrive on Friday. Had major PMS symptoms yesterday, exhaustion, headache, backache, upset stomach etc. But nothing today! So strange. Normally I get that all the day before AF comes first thing the next morning, but nothing so far yet.

Hoping to get a BFP either this month or next month, before taking a break on TTC for a few months to avoid a clash of close birthdays with my DD!

Seasidegirll · 15/03/2023 15:25

@hopeandpray1988 oh they look good!! 😍

Mummyme87 · 16/03/2023 21:44

Looking good @hopeandpray1988

12dpo now and AF is starting. Mucous brown/dark discharge this eve plus periody back ache. Onto the next cycle

hopeandpray1988 · 16/03/2023 21:46

@Mummyme87 I had brown discharge when ttc DS. It was implantation bleeding - I'm praying it's the same for you. Xx

Mushroo · 16/03/2023 22:02

Checking in, been a bit quiet as nothing was really happening!

I should be due next week around weds, but had spotting today.

Now torn whether I ovulated a lot earlier than I thought, or it’s implantation bleeding. It’s a case of wait and see but it’s so frustrating!

hopeandpray1988 · 17/03/2023 07:58

This is the line progression of the cheaper tests. I'm waiting on some first response tests to come today so I can check progression on those too. Feeling very anxious.

TTC November baby
JD90 · 17/03/2023 08:46

@hophopeandpray1988 there is definitely progression there.

I'm just hanging around waiting to see what happens. 9dpo today, don't have any of my usual pms symptoms that i would have by now (utter rage, super sore boobs, nausea) however I got super sore boobs with both my ectopic and my chemical so I'm not really sure. I'm just so unspeakably and horrendously tired the last 3 days, I've been in bed as soon as I get home from work and spend my entire day off in bed too. I'm also suuuuuper hungry which is really weird for me. I'm currently just assuming that it's down to a change in my stress levels that have been sky high for months and now dropped. Gonna see how I'm feeling over the weekend and try not to test lol

RegardingPersephone · 17/03/2023 08:54

Hi all!

@hopeandpray1988 those are some very definite positives and good looking progression!

I had a very very faint line today I think? It is the one on the bottom of the image. Going to be testing like crazy now to confirm over the next few days. Partner is sure I'm not pregnant this time round so might be in for a shock! Don't want to get his hopes up yet though...

Oh bless you. These are very clear progression lines. Many congratulations to you ❤️

JD90 · 17/03/2023 10:47

So for some reason I failed miserably and waiting (I'm guessing because I feel so horrible atm and just figured at least it would make me stop stressing a couple of days) and did a test. 9dpo, not fmu, why on earth would there be anything at all there... erm excuse me?! What the actual fuck is that!! Absolutely not thinking it's an actual positive but seriously what the hell?!

TTC November baby
Mummyme87 · 17/03/2023 11:19

Definitely see a line @JD90 give it a couple of days and fingers Crossed it’s nice and bright!

@RegardingPersephone can definitely see a line!!

@hopeandpray1988 good line progression! Congratulations

CD1 of cycle 21 (or 22, not even sure now).

Sierra26 · 17/03/2023 13:21

Woweee @hopeandpray1988 those are great lines!

I'm genuinely just fucking baffled by the whole thing! I mean seriously, 9dpo on a normal test?! The math ain't mathin 🤣 though I know it can actually be possible I'm just confused right now.
