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.

I was stupid
.. Negative test 9 dpo xxx

Floralsandsmiles · 09/03/2023 07:37

Sorry to hear that @Peaceandloves! @Chip131 no!!! Hold off now a few more days, you've got this hun xxxx

Piglet34 · 09/03/2023 07:41

@Chip131 @Peaceandloves aw sorry to hear about your tests this morning. Not out until AF comes though and 9dpo especially still so early xx

@Floralsandsmiles I think you are supposed to count CD1 as first day of full flow and would need to be red blood? This is literally the tiniest bit and only when wiping, none in the panty liner all day so don't think it counts? I have a cervical ectropian which I'm now wondering if this causes the bleeding in my luteal phase as I have read other threads of women saying it does. Hopefully it is that and not low progesterone 🙏

11DPO and I can’t quite believe it!

Aww OK @Piglet34 ! The reason I asked is because I have a number of days of "spotting" before AF rears her ugly head.. I am being tested for low progesterone to rule this out.. however I was found to have a iron deficiency.. and apparently this could cause the spotting. So now taking a supplement for that and hopes it resolves it xxxx

Omg @LittleMiss2023 ! Huge congratulations! Xxz

Piglet34 · 09/03/2023 09:19

@Floralsandsmiles sorry to hear you have spotting also, it's so annoying but seems like a lot of women have it so maybe isn't that weird! Hope yours resolves itself soon :) I might try get the progesterone test next cycle, I'm wondering if my GP will let me as we've only been trying for a few months so far.

@LittleMiss2023 wow congratulations! such clear positives! How exciting xx

Aww @Freya8 ! Sorry to hear you still feel rough! You aren't out until AF arrives, so there is still hope! Xxx

LittleMiss2023 · 09/03/2023 09:48

Thanks all - still in quite a bit of shock as apart from very mild cramping here and there, I haven’t had any symptoms. Although I have been a bit tired this week - but I put that down to 4:30am alarms!

Cant wait to see more BFP’s on this thread!

Floralsandsmiles · 09/03/2023 10:29

Does anyone else have bad heartburn and acid reflux? I take DHA and I burn up and taste fish each day.. yuck. Its all the water through to the afternoon top and driving me nuts! Xxx

Lilothblos · 09/03/2023 10:49

I’m sorry @Peaceandloves , best of luck for next month. @Chip131 keep testing and keep us updated, 9dpo is still v early so there’s hope!
@LittleMiss2023 wow massive congratulations!!🎉 Lovely clear lines! Hopefully the first of a few on this thread!

Janeykat · 09/03/2023 11:07

Aww congratulations @LittleMiss2023, great looking tests🥳🥳

12dpo for me and a very negative test this morning. Going to stop testing this cycle, I've always just known very early on when I actually am pregnant and seeing all the negatives is a bit soul crushing.

Peaceandloves · 09/03/2023 11:30

@Janeykat same boat here. Fingers crossed for us next month :)

Janeykat · 09/03/2023 11:40

Thank you @Peaceandloves,will have fingers crossed for you next cycle x

Floralsandsmiles · 09/03/2023 11:46

So @Freya8 symptom for today at 8DPO. Hotter then hell! Lower back pain, more cloudy thin CM and bloating. Along with acid reflux and tiredness! Lol also a spike on BBT this morning xxx

TTC53 · 09/03/2023 13:00

Congrats @LittleMiss2023 ! Beautiful line there.

I'm not testing again @Janeykat and @Peaceandloves as similarly I can't take more negatives. Will maybe see you in another thread next month.

Good luck the rest of you, I hope to see more bfp soon

Freya8 · 09/03/2023 13:45

Not going to lie, I'm hotter than hell right now! I'm at a conference for the last 3 days in London and struggling today! Lol

Feeling cramping now since my last message and lots of cloudy CM when going to the toilet. Hoping this is all good symptoms!

Defo BBT tomorrow onwards, so get a baseline for when (and if) the temp stats high or drops! Going to continue until AF arrives (or hopefully doesnt) xxx

Lilothblos · 09/03/2023 15:28

@Floralsandsmiles these all sound super promising!
So far my BBT is the same as any other month, but it usually dips at 12dpo just before AF so will see if it does the same or not this time.

Aww OK, thanks @Lilothblos ! I will have to keep an eye on this then! Xxx

Lilothblos · 09/03/2023 18:23

@Floralsandsmiles that’s just for me though, might be different for you!
How are people dealing with drinking etc? I’m seeing my parents this weekend and they’ll definitely notice if I turn down drinks so planning to have a v small one and pour anything else down the sink when they’re not looking 😂
