TWW thread around 27/02/23

[TTCing]

Hi ladies,

who wants to join for the tww? I had peak fertility on 25/02/23. So I think I may have ovulated 26/02/23.

now in the tww.

who wants to join?

I’m TTC#2, month 8 of TTC this time. 16 months TTC #1.

I can’t say I’m feeling particularly hopeful. I’m used to the disappointment (again), sadly.

@Floralsandsmiles omg i dreamt jamie rednap was my hubby .. alarm went off and i wanted to continue the dream i was raging!! Xxx

@Chip131 lolllll may aswell take it still mooing lol xxx

@TTCing thank you for the warm welcome! I am officially 1dpo today!! Oh 9dpo wait for my antics! This is my first cycle after coming off pill had my dd who is 6 she was conceived first cycle after coming off pill too. I mean i vaguely rem the tww boobs were a big thing also alot of lightening crotch type pains the bloat was something else too. Lets see wat this tww brings ladies!!! Xxx

Dont be shy i wana hear every single little symptom lol xxx baby dust to us all xxxx

@Floralsandsmiles and @Freya8 that's hilarious 😂 I must admit I had a very vivid dream about boy baby clothes last night 🙈 I think my brain knows I want a baby but I actually just wished the clothes were pink. After two boys ild love a little princess

4dpo now with sensitive boobs, nausea and strangely enough sneezing constantly but I haven't got a cold or congested 🤣 honestly sat googling when's the earliest to test

Haha @Freya8 ! Snap! Are sex dreams a sign? I don't even know???
Yes keep all the symptoms coming please!! Xxx

Haha @ddaisynner ! I really think vivid dreams are a sign! I'd love a little girl too.. I have a DS already. Aww man! This will be the longest tww ever! Lol xxxx

6dpo today, the time is draaaging😅 what does everyone else do about drinking in the 2ww? It will be an even longer weekend without wine!

@Janeykat I also struggle with knowing what to do about this! Luckily I don't have many big plans the next two weeks. I am going out for dinner tonight and will probably just have one glass of wine and the same next weekend. It's my friends 30th the weekend after that but hopefully will know by then!

@Janeykat I don't have any big social events this time round but last time I just had the one drink.

When we were pregnant with our son we didn't tell anyone until 12 week scan so that was really difficult. This time we have decided that if we get pregnant we will tell close family straight away so that we aren't having to sneak around so much. Also means that if anything doesn't work out we will have more support.

As if symptom spotting wasn't annoying already.. look at all these!!! And I tick a few of these already and it's annoying I can't test yet!lol

What are peoples thoughts on exercise in the tww? Xxx

@Chip131 I am exercising as normal, so 4 times a week, mixture of cardio (spinning/running) and strength sessions, plus a lot of walking the dog. Personally I feel like it’s important to me to keep fit, especially as we have no idea how many months we will be going through this! From what I’ve read, as long as it’s at a level that you’ve already been doing and you haven’t recently been overdoing it to cause periods stopping etc it’s perfectly fine.

Yes I agree, thing is I have been slacking with it recently so worried about going from nothing to something... But also feel like shit and I know it would benefit me mentally and physically! Xxx

@Chip131 I've decided to just do yoga and walking during the TWW and strength/HIIT for the first part of the month. If it takes us a long time to conceive then I might reconsider :) x

Hi everyone, Also in the TWW so it's nice to have company.

I am 4dpo, ttc baby number 2.
I hope everyone is staying well, I'm trying to stay relaxed. Spotting is common in my cycle so will be trying not to symptom spot this time around but it's hard!

Hi ladies, I'm 6dpo (AF due on the 13th of March). I'm on cycle 4 of TTC #2. I'm also trying my hardest not to symptom spot this month (it's so difficult!). I'm keeping myself busy as much as I can to take my mind off constantly googling things! Sending you all baby dust x

5DPO! I already feel like it’s dragging and I don’t feel that this cycle will be the cycle. Strangely willingly anticipating my period so a new cycle can begin xx

@TTCing I'm only 2dpo and already feel like it's grafting so much!! Keep feeling weird tugging feeling in my lower tummy but know it can't mean anything so don't know why I'm even thinking it 😅 when are you going to test?

@Bailem spotting is also common for me too for a few days before my period but I've got it in my head that if I ever was pregnant the spotting wouldn't happen that cycle. Although I know for some people it does still happen the cycle they are preg. Did it for you with you first pregnancy?

@Piglet34 i’d like to wait until 10/11dpo! With my previous pregnancy, I tested on 12DPO and had a fairly prominent line! How about you?

@Piglet34 I keep feeling exactly the same way, and I’m only at 3DPO. Promised myself I wouldn’t symptom spot but here we are only 3 days in…it’s going to be a long 2 weeks!

I had some bad cramps yesterday. And a smidge of blood in discharge. I though ooh maybe early implantation at 5dpo. 6dpo this morning and I swear I see a faint line. (I can't wait I'm a pos addict 🙈🤣) still can't belive there was a faint at 6dpo. I ordered first response tests and purposely didn't do next day delivery with prime so that it would come next week so I didn't waste them 🤣

@Piglet34 I don't remember spotting but I was a lot more relaxed last time, I didn't even test until a few days after a missed period. I was very emotional and moody.

I had some cramping yesterday afternoon/evening, and I'm having some terrible mood swings and no get up and go. How are you doing?

@ddaisynner I can see this! Does the vvvfl have some colour though or is it grey? Xxx

Not feeling as much cramping today, which is worrying. I am moody and emotional though and my legs are aching and I'm so very tired all the time! Xxx

8 dpo today, and I dont have any symptoms which makes me feel like Im out already😔last month I had a chemical pregnancy and at this stage I had really sore boobs and nausea that didnt go away unless I ate something so I feel like this months total lack of symptoms means it isnt happening. Although at this stage last month I was also convinced it was twins😅

Morning gals
@ddaisynner i see a line! 💗

3dpo .. wish i cud just know if i was preggers or not! I know everyone says like technically your not preg until implantation and any symptoms before are just down to the hormones after ovulation but do you not think our bodies do actually know. I was so tender yest bendin down to put washin in the machine poss as bloated lol sure only time will tell! When can i test? Lmaoooooo

Im also 8ft I @Janeykat ! I have zero symptoms and not for lack of trying to spot. I'm pretty sure we are out this cycle. It's only our first time trying again so I know shouldn't be too disappointed but just want to hurry back to ovulation now
