Come wait with me - May TWW

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?

I’m cautiously excited on your behalf @confuzzzzzled !

Not a single symptom to report here

confuzzzzzled · 12/05/2023 13:45

@Hazelnuttella thank you!! Trying not to get my hopes up, gonna try and stick it out until day before AF to test 😆

HavinKittens · 12/05/2023 13:55

That does sound promising!

No symptoms here at all. Except grumpiness and hungriness but that’s probably standard.

7DPO for me too @confuzzzzzled , your cramps and spotting sound tentatively promising. I have had vvvv slight niggly cramps on and off but so mild that if I wasn't TTC I probably wouldn't notice. Breasts slightly tender but I get this every month.

Bellabeemarie · 12/05/2023 15:51

I soooooo wish I was 7dpo 😫😂 this 2ww seems to be dragging soooo much cycle 23 for us after this one im praying we dont make it to the 2 yr mark 😬🤦‍♀️

Vic231 · 12/05/2023 15:54

Hi all, I'm 6DPO, first month of trying for second child. I don't know how I'm going to last without sending myself crazy symptom spotting 😂

Bellabeemarie · 12/05/2023 15:57

@Vic231 goodluck 😂😂😂 feels like a vicious circle... these past 22 months feel like all I have thought about from the beginning of the ttc journey is getting a BFP 😂🤦‍♀️ it feels like its never ending hahaha

Vic231 · 12/05/2023 16:00

@Bellabeemarie oh gosh, bless you, it sounds like you still have your sense of humour intact at least! Fingers crossed that this is your month!!

PollyDarton1 · 12/05/2023 16:03

Welcome @fleur89 - that looks very similar to the evap lines I've been having on the Easy@Home tests I've done - they've all come up with lines, but some look like they appear during the reading window, some after, so it's really hard to determine whether they are hinting at something. Wishing you the very best Flowers

NiceParkingSpotRitaThanksJanet · 12/05/2023 16:13

Can I join? I'm 2dpo! Probably about month 6 with a couple of gaps of trying for our second. First was conceived month one of not even really trying but no luck yet and I've been tracking ovulation this time!

HavinKittens · 12/05/2023 16:36

@NiceParkingSpotRitaThanksJanet welcome! Same story here, first was conceived first try. Bit more difficult with this one. How old is your first? Mine’s 16 months :)

HavinKittens · 12/05/2023 16:37

Hi@Vic231 I think there’s quite a few of us around 6-8 dpo, not too much longer to wait. Do you wait til missed period to test or earlier?

Great! It's so good to be surrounded by others in the same boat. Last time I managed to wait until my period was a week late!! I have no idea how, I think it was disbelief at falling on the first try 😂 how about you?

HavinKittens · 12/05/2023 17:46

Oh I’ve always tested early. I’ve had positives at 10dpo and 11dpo before, so probs won’t see anything til Sunday if I’m in luck this cycle.

Optimistic66 · 12/05/2023 18:41

i'm 9DPO and think i'm going to test tomorrow - i know it too early but can't wait!!

Also feeling nauseous today, probably acid reflux but you know just another excuse to test.

🤡

19 months! I keep worrying as I had a smear test about 6 months after I had him and she couldn't find my cervix for ages. I had a c section and keep thinking did they put everything back wrong haha. Mind you I am also a stone and a half heavier than the last time I got pregnant, that may have something to do with it!!

Hoping it's good news for you!

BabyNo2please23 · 12/05/2023 19:57

Hi everyone can I please join
I'm 7dpo and 2nd month trying for No2
I'm going crazy already I took a cheap internet test today obviously a bfn

Good luck ladies x

fleur89 · 12/05/2023 20:34

@HavinKittens thank you my lovely, glad my cycle is finally back to normal so we can try again 💗
Yes these evaporation lines are so confusing, hence I thought it'd be a good idea to take a test on 1dpo as a benchmark since I'd definitely be negative then.
Wishing you the best of luck 🍀

fleur89 · 12/05/2023 20:34

@PollyDarton1 thank you so much, wishing you all this best this cycle too! 💗 Let's hope these lines turn pink for real soon 🙏

HavinKittens · 13/05/2023 06:25

Good morning everyone, how are we?

A BFN here this morning, sadly. But only 9dpo so still early.

OP posts:
Lina9 · 13/05/2023 06:48

@HavinKittens Sorry to hear about the BFN, but as you say still early so keeping fingers and toes crossed for you.

How’re you and everyone else sleeping? I woke up 3x during the night and have been for the past week, but it is starting to get warmer so might just be that…

HavinKittens · 13/05/2023 06:54

ah, I haven’t slept well since I had my little boy. He often sleeps through now but I wake up lots still.

It is warmer tho yes, I’m sticking a leg out of the duvet now 😅

Ahhh i'm sorry it's negative! It so deflating!

Day 9PO Negative for me too HavinKittens- not a smidge of anything on it.

We're still early so we're not out but also now i'm just going be waiting for AF! What month trying is everyone?

Hazelnuttella · 13/05/2023 07:57

Negative at 9dpo here too.

Didn’t get much sleep… my 2yo DS has 4 really big teeth coming through at the same time. He woke up at 3am screaming and then at 5am he was up for the day! 🙃

I have just had a little nap though ☺️

HavinKittens · 13/05/2023 08:08

Ah well at least I have company in the 9dpo BFN club.

I’ve been up since about 6am, and husband is in bed having his lie in 🙄 We take turns on a weekend, so I’ll get one tomorrow.
