Hey,

just thought I’d start a thread for those in their TWW.
I’m 1DPO - looking for people to chat to and just keep each other company as title states.

last month I was super patient during my TWW and fully waited until 12DPO and tested once.
I just have a feeling this month I’m going to be super impatient and need people to tell me off and not test early lol.

if you’re joining, what DPO are you and any symptoms?

baby dust to us all 👶🏻🤞🏻✨

@Knov20 yay congrats!! Lovely news.

Nmmck93 · 30/04/2023 18:13

10dpo today; I’ve done a test yesterday and a few days ago and BFN.
All symptoms I’ve had leading up to today have disappeared; I have mildly achy boobs but I usually get those on the lead up to AF who is due on Friday.
This next part is TMI.

We DTD this morning and I swear, I was so dry down below, like I’ve never ever experienced it like that, did abit of digging and you should actually be more wet in early pregnancy so another sign I’m out this month but it’s a rare one for me.

i keep saying I’m not out until AF shows up but I’ve prepared myself that I’m not pregnant and not testing now until AF shows her face.

still hoping there’s going to be a few more positives on this post soon 💜

@Nmmck93 sorry to hear that. Hope you are ok? Fingers crossed next month will be our month ☺️

Nmmck93 · 30/04/2023 18:19

@Bluebell0921 fingers crossed; the TWW is always bad, but the worst part is waiting for the ovulation tests to start rising and hit peak.
I've been so impatient this TWW so the lead up to my next ovulation I will be so impatient.
Fingers crossed for everyone out this month and hopefully next month will be kind to us all 💜

@Bluebell0921 I tested this morning and I got my BFP!
However I'm not sure how to feel as with DD I had a dye stealer. It might be I'm not as many DPO as I thought so I'll keep watching and retest with a CB digital that ages by weeks.

According to Apple AF could come until Friday. Wish I could be more confident but reading all the comments about indents, chemicals, impact of BF etc now has me over thinking.

Really hoping this sticks and becomes a happy healthy baby .

@TrudyProud congrats ❤️fingers crossed 🤞🏽 will be routing for you.

@Nmmck93 next month 💪🏼 you’ve had such bad luck this month! Hopefully you’ll be feeling better and stronger for Thai coming cycle. Xx

Bluebell0921 · 01/05/2023 10:26

@TrudyProud congratulations!!! I can understand your apprehension but keeping my fingers crossed that everything continues to progress for you .

Suz1211 · 01/05/2023 10:49

@TrudyProud congratulations!!! I hope all goes smoothly now for you !

@Nmmck93 I know what you mean about feeling like this month is not the one. Woke up this morning with that gut feeling and put a bottle of wine into the fridge ready for Saturday when I expect AF to arrive. Also debating on skipping this next month for trying because if successful I'd find out days after a family wedding and I'm not sure what I want to do because obviously it would be a 'not drinking just in case' but people questioning and such. Also don't want my family possibly talking about me for avoiding drink when it's a special day for someone else and the attention shouldn't be on me at all

Nmmck93 · 01/05/2023 12:24

@Suz1211 aw I'm expecting AF on Friday aswell. It's disheartening to actually tell ourselves that we're out before AF arrives but all my tests have been stark negative and all symptoms disappeared, so just roll on May!
Aw I know, you don't want people to judge you for not drinking but you also shouldn't give up trying and if people judge that's just nasty of them. I would never judge someone to go to a function or a night out if they didn't drink. It's crazy we have to to and think about avoiding it. I went out Saturday night for my mums birthday and didn't drink and nobody said a thing to me because we still had an amazing night.
Hopefully we get out BFP soon! 💜

Congrats to all with BFP!

I also think I’m out because I just don’t feel pregnant at all. No signs or symptoms. 10 DPO. AF due Friday/Saturday. Took a test this morning that I knew I shouldn’t have and it said negative. sigh

Suz1211 · 01/05/2023 13:52

@Nmmck93 for me it's more I'm the known party animal so my calmed behaviour would be questioned. The other option is I get the same drinks as my husband and swap the glasses around..

ThatCampWitch · 01/05/2023 16:53

Congratulations to all the BFPers 😍 I’m 8DPO and had a tiny spot of brown CM this afternoon. Way too early for AF. I didn’t have this with my daughter and I have had it with some of my MC, so it’s not necessarily a great sign. Also, I’m quite prone to spotting and have had it at around this cycle time in the past so it’s probably meaningless. AF due in 6 days.

With DD I kept my pregnancy under wraps till 17/18 weeks. I called ahead to pubs/bars/restaurants and asked for non alcoholic options. They made them for me even with group rounds.

On waitress even "forgot" my drink so there was no chance of drunk colleagues taking mine by accident. Definitely ways around it should you not be ready to announce your pregnancy.

Fingers crossed

Nmmck93 · 02/05/2023 10:53

So I’m 12DPO today; tests up until yesterday where negative, I haven’t tested today becasue I’ve just basically told myself im out this month; just wiped and have some pinkish blood on my tissue.

AF isn’t due until Friday; could this be implantation bleeding this late after ovulation? 🙈

Suz1211 · 02/05/2023 10:58

@Nmmck93 I'm crossing everything for you

Bailem · 02/05/2023 11:09

@Nmmck93 I am the same DPO and stark negative. I usually spot before my AF so I'm expecting that any day. Is this normal AF symptom for you? I find the closer to AF it gets the worse the TWW is 🙁

Nmmck93 · 02/05/2023 11:15

@Suz1211 thank you. 🤞🏻

@Bailem no, I never spot before AF, just on the day she's due to start I would spot then she'd be full force the next day & she's only ever been early once in the whole time ive ever had a period 😂 (it's crazy I know that, only because she's usually a day or 2 late)

I had lots of symptoms last week then they disappeared; but today I have mild tender breasts which I get usually a week before AF for a day or two, then disappears and then AF shows up 5/6 days later.

I used a FRER on Saturday and was negatice but I was using cheapies since Saturday (they weren't early response) and they where all negative.

The unknown is just annoying, I hope it's implantation and not AF.

It was mucus like at all, was literally just pink spitting on toilet paper. (I have attached a picture and made it sensitive for anyone wanting to look to give me an idea) 🙈

ive wiped twice and there was this, and now it’s gone.

@Nmmck93 Keeping everything crossed for you that’s it’s implantation!! Still within the window for it anyway :)

Bailem · 02/05/2023 11:26

@Nmmck93 It certainly looks like implantation bleeding and it can still happen at 12dpo so fingers crossed for you x

Nmmck93 · 02/05/2023 11:31

@DHB @Bailem thank you, I’ll keep updated; I’m not sure now when to test, my eagerness has me wanting to test in the next few hours 🙈

DHB · 02/05/2023 12:26

@Nmmck93 Well, I have absolutely zero willpower 🫣😂 Big fat negative still.

@DHB I'm currently say looking at those exact tests contemplating whether to do it!
How many DPO are you again?
I don't think I have the willpower not to take one into the bathroom with me next time I'm going 🙈
