Come wait with me - May TWW

[HavinKittens]

I can see lots of TWW threads for end of April but I thought I’d start one for any of us who are 1dpo in early May.

I’m 1dpo today. Fourth cycle of trying for second baby. Ovulation day came a week early for us this week, but we DTD 3 times in the fertile window so I’m hopeful.

I don’t remember getting any early symptoms with my last pregnancy.

I usually test waaaay too much. So get ready to see loads of iffy faint lines -ha!

What about you?

@MLN89 ooo interesting, thank you! I'll try that with a cheapie tonight to see what happens.

I don't think I'll believe it until I get a positive on a digital, I got a negative on a digital on Saturday. I tested using it as felt so sick and was getting all sorts of crazy evaporation lines on cheapies (since 1dpo when I did a baseline). FRER only turned faint positive today following 4 stark white FRER so I'm hoping that on Saturday there wasn't enough hcg in my system to trigger the digital 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Keeping fingers crossed for you @fleur89 x

@fleur89 good luck with your cheapie tonight x

Had lots of cramps today which felt like last time around this point. 5dpo today. Trying not to hope but we will see!

Hi @RegardingPersephone welcome to the thread.

AF arrived this morning so that's me out for this month! I'll stick around though for the next try ☺️ good luck to all those still waiting for a BFP! X

@Vic231 sorry to hear about AF 🤍

Sorry to hear @Vic231 , glad you’re sticking around x

FRER looked pretty much negative this morning but my urine was definitely more diluted than yesterday. Cheapies last night and this morning looked the same as yesterday morning with a very faint line.

Feel like it may be a chemical as I'm 13dpo and expected to see more by now. Guess I'll know by the weekend, due on tomorrow and will buy some more FRER today. So confusing!

Ah that sounds so confusing, I’m sorry. It does sound similar to my early loss in January, I got my positive test late (12DPO) and it was never strong.

Definitely keep on testing as you may need to have a scan to check what’s going on if you keep on getting faint positives.

Hopefully it progresses, rooting for you!

Sorry to hear about your loss in January. Yes really confusing, and I'm so impatient! I had a MMC in March but it's been 10 weeks now since medical management 🤔

@fleur89 aw that's so confusing for you this morning! Sending lots of love!
Sorry to hear about you mmc and sorry to hear about your early loss too @HavinKittens 🤍
This TTC is a lot isn't it!

it is not an easy road, definitely not for the impatient person like myself 😅

Just did a clear blue 6 days early digital and it's a BFN 😞 Expect it's a chemical or weird post-MMC hormones as I'm due on tomorrow, should be showing something by now

@fleur89 aww I'm so sorry to hear that 🤍 sending you lots of hugs and chocolates 💐

Sorry to hear that @fleur89 x

Sorry to hear that @fleur89, awful getting some false hope like that. I've stopped testing as of this morning, absolutely nothing on the tests. Really convinced myself I was pregnant too. Starting to wonder if something is wrong..

Sorry to hear that @fleur89 Big hugs x

I'm having lots of cramps and stitch pain today so think AF may be coming tomorrow

Same As me i got a light positive for 10-14DPO then nothing and then Started AF We also had a chemical in Jan.

Sorry to all of you that AF has arrived! I hope you all stick around for next month :)

@fleur89 im so sorry to read this, sending love ❤️ I can’t believe how cruel the whole TTC journey is. I really never thought it would be this hard & devastating.

im on CD 9 so just about to enter my fertile window again and tbh the last week of not testing/ thinking about it all the time has been nice. I think if it doesn’t happen this month we will take the summer months off ttc and just enjoy some time away from the constant thinking about it.

Thank you ladies, it's so confusing and emotionally draining. When I got home I had light spotting, I guess it's the start of AF but it disappeared after one wipe so perhaps there's a tiny chance it's late implantation bleeding 🤷‍♀️

I took another cheapie just now as with my previous pregnancy (now 15 month old girl) and recent MMC I only tested positive after implantation.

Attached is my 13dpo PM easy@home taken this evening which is stronger than in recent days so confusing me even more. The first photo is the original and the second I've bumped up the saturation level as I read if it pulls pink then it's a real line and not an evaporation line. Cropped the photos differently so looks like a different photo but it's the same photo.

That looks like such a strong line @fleur89 , I’m sorry you’re on such a confusing rollercoaster. So hoping that things come good for you.

Oh @fleur89 that's truly an emotional roller coaster! It's soo hard when you just want answers. Are there any other symptoms? Were you certain on your ovulation day or could it have been a couple of days after? I hope you get an answer tomorrow.

I had previously thought hcg only grows after implantation but I may be wrong on that.

@HavinKittens thank you, will keep you posted 💗

@FindMyRainbow these past 3 nights I've had night sweats (had to change clothes), nausea, bloating, today a headache, cramping / twinges 1-3dpo and 6dpo and a bit today at 13dpo, spotting at 6dpo and 13dpo.

Pretty certain of my ovulation dates unless I had a second surge after I stopped testing LH. Unlikely though as I ovulated late this month due to the MMC in March. Attached is my chart.
