Anyone else in tww?

[Mummy1502]

I just thought I’d start this thread to see if there is anyone else in the tww and wants to chat? Maybe stop ourselves going insane 😂 currently 3/4 days po I think x

[VictoriaBlossom]

But, I have just inverted the photo

And I do see something

[Mummy1502]

@VictoriaBlossom its barely visible in the photo but if you zoom in you can just about see it lol, it came up within the time frame and more visible in person, will get some frer today and test at the weekend, still feeling rather strange so will keep you all updated, how you feeling? X

[Mummy1502]

@VictoriaBlossom Thankyou I didn’t know how to do that, that does make it more visible, I’m nervous now, hoping it’s not a false positive especially as showing up within time frame x

[VictoriaBlossom]

@Mummy1502
Not that I've ever had a false positive with a clear blue but some people do say on here about how they are shit for dye run.

How old are you and how long have you been TTC? Xx

[Mummy1502]

@VictoriaBlossom i had a few false positives the last couple of months so I’m a bit wary of the clearblue but my husband put them in my valentines hamper so I thought why not, I’m 30, we lost a baby in November very early on around 7 weeks and only been trying since then x

[VictoriaBlossom]

@Mummy1502 I swear the moment you hit 30 you have this almighty pressure you put in yourself to procreate.
Your hubby with his little hamper sounds like an absolute superstar. Definitely the kind to have a baby with as well ☺️

Try to not put pressure on yourself, it's taken 12 months to the month for us to get another positive after my miscarriage last year.

I turn 34 in March and hoping this bean sticks!

[Mummy1502]

Yes I’ve been so sure after every baby I wouldn’t have more but I guess that’s just going through labour 😂 we’ve always wanted a big family, we have 4 already so I feel blessed to have our healthy babies, our eldest is almost 12 and youngest is 2, almost feel selfish for wanting more when there’s people who do struggle or can’t have children, being a mum is my life and I love it more than anything, I hope this one sticks for you too and hope I get my bfp then we can share our journeys x

[Mummy1502]

@VictoriaBlossom im 30 x

@VictoriaBlossom didnt tag you in my first reply sorry x

Hi all. Just after some solidarity really! Took myself off my pill aorund 4 weeks ago expecting a bleed pretty much straight away…. But nothing! I know this can happen but so frustrating. Have been doing random ovulation sticks just to see if I have ovulated (but not daily as no idea when to start them!) and on Friday I got a super positive one! Since then they’ve been very negative so I feel like I’m in a 2WW but haven’t had a period yet so who knows…! Will keep you all updated x

[SnookyPook]

@greeny506 hi and welcome! Super positive opk sounds positive! Did you manage to DTD around then? How many dpo would you be if it was right?

[Lav1n]

Second month TTC with baby number one. Struggling with the waiting time and being hyper aware of every twinge in my body.
My sense of taste seems different, even tea has a strange taste, has this happened to anyone else?

we did that Friday night but by the time I took one Saturday lunchtime it had faded and then I was working a long day Sunday so it didn’t really happen again 🙈 not very hopeful this month! I have been on the pill since my 2nd baby was 8m so no idea really about cycle length tho when I conceived my 2nd, I remember I ovulated late around day 19/20!

Hi 👋🏼 I hope no one minds me jumping on.
I currently 2dpo TTC #1 for 3 years. I have pcos and was talking letrozole but took a couple of months break from it recently. Had a CP last month and now trying to stay sane in this TWW hoping for a sticky bean this time.
congrats to those with BFPs and hoping this thread will be full soon!
Baby dust to all xx

[Mummy1502]

Welcome to everyone who has joined and keep us all updated, the tww really feels long doesn’t it, how’s everyone feeling? X

[flightless55]

Still symptom spotting like crazy!
I'm not taking a test till Monday morning so just a waiting game

[SnookyPook]

@flightless55 exactly same here! Due on Sun/Mon so just trying to keep busy! However, also on hyper alert to any possible symptoms. 😬🙄

[VictoriaBlossom]

My lines are getting darker 😍 but zero symptoms. Sleeping well, no mental dreams, little bit peaky now and then but that's literally it.
Sending baby dust to all you lovely girls who have held out and not peed on a stick!!! Xxx

[SnookyPook]

@VictoriaBlossom ah lovely! So nice to hear! 🥰

[HannahLouD]

Only 7dpo and itching to test 😅😂
No symptoms since very sore nipples between 1-3 dpo and some on and off creamy cm.

Does anyone have any experience with testing with the cheapie easy@home strips? I use them for opk and they seem to be really good but not sure about the pregnancy test strips? I've got 20 that came with my opks and wondering when to start testing with them/when they would be likely to show a bfp if it were to be my month... I know frers are much more reliable and you can test earlier with them, but with my poas addiction, I can't afford to use them all the time 😂

Thanks everyone and good luck to all still waiting and congrats again to those who have got their bfps! 😊x

[Holly03]

Has anyone used those cheap tests as I made the mistake of using them and it was showing two lines whilst loads. A faint white line whilst it was loading but you can’t see it when it’s dried out fully. Apologise for the dusty windows currently tackling a bad damp problem in rented accommodation and it’s bringing half of the paint down too

[Holly03]

also only 10dpo not due on until Sunday and never get a positive result properly until 6 weeks pregnant with previous pregnancies. I think it’s because my cycles so short so that when I miss my period it doesn’t show on a test for a while after

[Mummy1502]

@VictoriaBlossom sounds positive! Congratulations, we’ve been away for our daughters birthday but I have a frer at home, will test in the morning x

[Mummy1502]

Stupidly did a frer when I got home knowing I’d drank lots of water all day, not even a smidge of a line so thinking the clearblue was yet again a false positive, so disheartened, hats off to those of you who have been trying for years I just don’t think I can mentally put myself through it, I know there’s still time I’m due on in 5 days so thought a frer would at least show a faint line by now x

I know everyone says it and it never makes me feel any better (and I should absolutely take my own advice right now and know full well I won't 😅🤦🏻‍♀️) but... It is still early and there is defo still time for you to get your bfp!
Got my fingers crossed for you and everyone!! 🤞🤞🤞
Only 7dpo here and driving myself mad... I already know when I test in a few days it'll be stark white again. I just can't imagine it actually ever being a bfp 🙄 x
