Hi! Is anyone else currently on their two week wait?? We dtd only once during my fertile window and this is C1 of ttc for #1! We wanted to take it slow and easy at first to get used to it all. So I'm not doing opk's and not dtd every other day or anything like that. Just taking it super easy this month. Might try and dtd a little more during my fertile window next month if this month isn't successful. Which obviously I'm not expecting it to be cos the chances are quite low! BUT regardless. I keep getting little nervous butterflies and just wanted some company at the start of this all!! AF is due 23rd April so I'm right at the start of ttw!

Currently on cd14 so just ovulating now, so will be questioning every symptom for the next 2 weeks. Shoot me now 😂

Omgreally11 · 10/04/2023 09:41

Yes!! I was ovulating yesterday according to the app. I honestly am already obsessing which is what I'm trying to avoid lol. First cycle ttc and already thinking about everything. I need to chill haha

It starts to take over your life, but it’s just shows how important it is to us.

I hope it doesn’t take you too long.

let me know how you get on this month x

Hi @Omgreally11 - I am in the exact same situation as you, didn’t really try this month as it’s our first month so not expecting anything but I’m somewhere around 5 dpo and finding it so hard not to look out for symptoms

Omgreally11 · 10/04/2023 10:41

@star2023 ohh that's exciting we're in the position! Yeah I definitely wanted to take it easy this month for sure! @Farmgirl12 yes! Exactly! I'm glad I'm feeling this way because I got cold feet ttc about 2 years ago and just so glad I'm feeling excited about it this time!!

Thank you both! I will update this thread if there are any updates!! Let me know how you're both getting on! Eek!

@Star2023 5DPO here too! this is first cycle for me after a MC end of Feb... trying to just be cool and not symptom spot but yeah, it's not easy! haha

Luciechappie · 10/04/2023 20:02

6DPO here! We’re on cycle one of trying after losing our son at 22 weeks in January. I conceived first month with him but I fear it will take longer this time. This is the last chance we have to still get a living baby in 2023, it’s heartbreaking 💔 symptom spotting like mad and feel like a crazy person! Baby dust to you all xxx

RegardingPersephone · 10/04/2023 20:20

7Dpo! Had cramping all throughout the wait so far and have pressure in my pelvic area now. Don't know if this is the 'pulling' people describe? Tender breasts and tired but also went camping over the weekend so could be that! 😅
Tested today as I'm going crazy with it but nothing obviously! Had a line last month that proved false which devastated me as it was mother's day that AF arrived!

Ahhh I know!! I've had spotting for two days and it's so so difficult not to read into every single little thing. Aw man I bet that was difficult coming on on mothers day!!

Oh I'm so sorry to hear about your MC. I hope it happens quickly for you! I guess we'll all have to keep each other updated!! Sending you all baby dust!

@Omgreally11 it really is! I'm trying to be rational and be like that could be anything but my irrational brain is not accepting it.

BFN at 8dpo today. Hopefully too early to tell yet but still downhearted!

TTC12023 · 11/04/2023 11:29

@Omgreally11 5DPO today and would love to join if I can! Trying my hardest not to symptom spot as it is too early!!!!

suz2285 · 11/04/2023 14:21

7 DOP over here and convincing myself i'm pregnant now... probably just overthinking everything, won't be testing till the weekend so just got to put it out of my mind for now! 😂

ofCourseYouHave · 11/04/2023 15:17

AF due 22nd first month ttc dc3 after a long break. I've had 4 previous pregnancies. The first two resulted with dc. The last two pregnancies ended in miscarriages. I'm much older now and terrified this will end in heartbreak again, but would love a dc3. Dtd everyday, so we will see what the next few weeks bring. Heavy feeling in pelvis, although it might just be because I'm symptom spotting. I've been horribly moody too 🙈

suz2285 · 11/04/2023 15:57

@ofCourseYouHave TTC after MC is absolutely terrifying, i've only had one and i'm not sure i'm strong enough to do that multiple times! Good luck to us both! 😘and DTD every day, good on you! We do every day leading up to Ovu but after that jeez I need a few days break! 😂

ofCourseYouHave · 11/04/2023 17:37

@suz2285 it's scary and exciting at the same time. I've had two naps today so I'm either getting ill/stressed or something is going on.

Omgreally11 · 11/04/2023 17:41

Ah hi everyone!! Everyone is welcome to join and share! I hope we get some BFPs this month!! I'm not expecting much for me as we haven't maximised our chances with it being our first month. But fingers crossed for you all!! So sorry to hear those of you that have had losses. I bet it makes this so much for anxiety forming!

RegardingPersephone · 12/04/2023 09:58

Think I might have fallen foul of the internet cheapies again like last month as there is a slight line on this morning's but nothing on the frer I took. Don't trust them!

ofCourseYouHave · 12/04/2023 10:06

I'm feeling a bit sicky this morning, although that might have something to do with the Easter chocolate I ate for breakfast. Day 5 post ovulation for me - so it would be too early for symptoms for me really.

Omgreally11 · 12/04/2023 19:27

@regardingpersephone ooh! Well maybe do another test tomorrow?

OP posts:
Omgreally11 · 12/04/2023 19:28

@ofcourseyouhave oh it's so hard not to symptom spot!! I'm on CD22 but apparently 4DPO according to my app. So deffo too early to test. But it's SO HARD not to test hahaha

OP posts:
Star2023 · 12/04/2023 19:35

@RegardingPersephone oh don’t worry I have to, just did one as I feel like I have a few symptoms (pretty sure I’m making them up) and no surprises no line. Didn’t realise how hard this TWW would be, especially as I know we didn’t really try much this cycle

RegardingPersephone · 12/04/2023 19:40

Put my frer into a website that is meant to sharpen lines and it showed this... Not sure if I'm imagining a line or the website is just embellishing an indent. Will see tomorrow... Not getting my hopes up.
