4/5dpo - anyone wanna join the 2WW?

[Angelselevenx]

I’m currently 4/5dpo, second cycle since coming off the Evra patch and new to the whole tracking thing which I’m finding confusing!

I use Flo and Premom and it looks like I ovulated around cycle day 21. Is that late ovulation for a 28-31 day cycle?

Feel like I’m symptom spotting but I’ve had a lot of cramping over the last couple of days which I know is way to early but today I’ve had a burning sensation in my stomach which I’ve read can be caused from a rise in progesterone but who knows! I’m due on next Monday or Tuesday but think I may have to test at the weekend. Anyone else in their 2WW?

Forgot to post ovulation tests!

I'm 3 dpo (pretty sure but I didn't opk this month as it was stressing me out!!) I use the Glow app and have 27/28 day cycles. In the past when I've used opks I ov CD 13-15.

I also try not to symptom to spot, but it's so hard! Ive been pregnant before twice, first time I was so I'll, my mouth kept filling with saliva, I had loads of cm, I was dizzy (I was young and had absolutely no idea about the tww so did not attribute this to being preg!) Second time I had absolutely no symptoms at all.

Both times didn't work out for some reason but it was a long time ago and this is my 4th cycle ttc #1. Surprised by how stressed out I got after bfn last month, I was so sure with opks and perfect timing it would catch... Trying to relax into this month but we'll see. When are you going to test?

@Pbubz did you take ovulation tests and have you got photos of them together?

Sorry to hear about your two previous pregnancies, hopefully this is your cycle to get a sticky!

have you been on contraception before starting to try? It’s hard isn’t it, it’s only cycle 1 for us and I’m feeling every single niggle and twinge but it’s probably that I’ve never noticed them before because I’ve never needed to. Looking at Flo I’m due on Friday 24th but that seems very short from ovulation (only 6/7 days) so I think I’ll wait it out and just see if I come on and if not, test on Monday. When are you due? When will you test?

I didn't take ov tests this month and the months before I was using clear blue digital. When I do them again I'll just use the strips as the clear blue baffled me! Kind of regretting not getting them for this month but oh well can't change it now.

I was on the pill until November 2022, before that the implant and a long stint of just using withdrawal in between. I'm nearly 32 so want to just go for it now.

I said I wouldn't symptom spot this month but I've got sore boobs and a few little twinges that are hard to ignore. I'm not due on until March 5th so a while to go yet and I'm reallllly going to try and not test until I'm late. Reason for this is I spent a lot of money testing from 9/10 dpo and got nothing but bfns. Also twice in the past I've got an early positive only to get my period so it was a chemical, and I would never have known if I hadn't tested early.

Although saying that I totally understand early testing and I know next week I'll probably find it hard not to!

Waiting to test till Monday sounds like a good idea - keep me posted though I'd love to hear how it goes for you!

@Pbubz i haven’t tried the clear blue device yet as I’m trying to not put too much pressure on myself and I know I’ll get addicted! EBay and Amazon do them cheaply in bulks if you’re going to order some.

good idea, super exciting I hope this month is your month.

im still symptom spotting but still only 6A dpi going by the premom app, did a test but it was negative which was expected cause it’s still too early anyway but now I’m convinced it’s definitely negative this month.

will see if AF arrives on day 28/29 of my
cycle which is usually what happens, going by Flo will be anywhere between Friday and Sunday. The apps just make things more confusing I swear!

Hey how are you getting on, did you test?

@Pbubz hey! Sorry I didn't see this. I was negative and AF arrived. Just waiting for positive ovulation test but still going, how are you getting on x
