Anyone want to wait together ?!
Telling myself I won't test for two weeks but I might not be able to resist.

LATE ovulation this month but hoping next phase is long enough (I usually fluctuate!)

I think we DTD enough 🙏

I onlykeep testing lh as my first cycle off the pill i had 2 surges n skipped a whole period lmao who knows wat mine is but im not testing until i miss my af due at 13dpo. My chemical i had more symptoms than now so pretty much think im out

Mangotango39 · 03/06/2023 15:45

@Freya8 usually I come on 12dpo so going something would show for me then.

sorry to hear about your chemicals.
I had absolutely no clue for my two mmc - they were accidents so possibly didn't notice but I did get to 11w6d for one and nothing 😐so I do think possible to have lack of symptoms .

I’m sure I read recently that pregnancy can cause a positive result in an OPK because they’re not sensitive enough to know what hormone they’re detecting, so you never know!

I don’t test LH after peak either, last month AF arrived only a week after positive OPK so I’m hoping that doesn’t happen again or we’ve got no chance.

OopsieeDaisy · 03/06/2023 15:49

Also the month I conceived my LO I had hardly any signs, which was ridiculous after months of symptom spotting and in the end it was just a bit of cramping around 10 DPO, so definitely possible not to have any signs as well!

Freya8 · 03/06/2023 16:19

Heres hopin for us all!! Lmao this is utter hell tho the wait 🤣🤣 i dont feel preg in slightest were as last time i knew i was n all my symptoms went as soon as started bleedin even tho tests stayed faint for over a week! Ya jus dont know wat to be thinkin lol

BubbleBathLover · 03/06/2023 17:40

This wait is utter torture 😅 I didn’t find out I was pregnant with my little boy until I was 7 weeks. I came off the pill and just didn’t get a period so thought my body was just trying to get back into a cycle but it turns out I just got pregnant straight away. I am a week away from being due my period and I feel like I am going crazy.

I have been looking online at the best tests to take before your AF is even due but stories about false positives have brought me back down and I will wait until next weekend. The issue I have is we are going to a friends bbq tomorrow where I will be handed a glass of Prosecco as I walk in the door, we are then on holiday this week and next Saturday I have my best friends hen do which is mainly centred around drinking.

Mangotango39 · 03/06/2023 20:34

@BubbleBathLover I find the drinking really difficult because people say don't put your life on hold but then in tww should we drink or not?! And then everyone is suspicious if you don't drink !!

my friend was trying to plan a bottemless brunch on July and I'm thinking eeek I don't want to just incase !

OP posts:
BubbleBathLover · 03/06/2023 21:09

@Mangotango39 absolutely! I think tomorrow I will have like 1 glass and that should through people off enough and then my period is due on Friday but can be a day late but if it hasn’t arrived by Saturday morning I might test then. Although it isn’t unusual for me to be a few days late.

it’s so hard to try and make plans when you are in this stage isn’t it!

OopsieeDaisy · 04/06/2023 08:06

I think as long as you’re not drinking excessively, the odd drink here and there is fine, even during the TWW. Our wait to conceive first time round wasn’t even that long compared to some people but it’s really true you shouldn’t put your life on hold, it can become quite a miserable time without that!

On a similar(ish) note, is anyone taking hayfever meds? I struggled through last summer because I actually was pregnant but is it worth the suffering if it may not even happen?!

Mangotango39 · 04/06/2023 08:13

@OopsieeDaisy oh no - I don't live in the uk so it's winter here I can't help re hay fever tabs 😓could you speak with the doctor which ones would be safe ? Feels cruel to suffer!

OopsieeDaisy · 04/06/2023 08:19

@Mangotango39 Ahhh ok, yes think I may have to! 😪
How are you this morning, any sign of AF???

Mangotango39 · 04/06/2023 08:44

@OopsieeDaisy I have brown discharge now this afternoon - scared!!!
Don't think I have ever had this before again previously but never know. Just hoping it's not. Weird I thought if spotted yesterday and it was period then it should have been this morning (I always start af on waking up)

Guess tomorrow will tell!

Mangotango39 · 05/06/2023 07:23

I am just in shock to be honest - have the doctors tomorrow to do bloods and will organise early scan maybe 7 weeks 😬

Thanks ladies! Hoping for some more positives in the thread shortly 🙏

ab0416 · 05/06/2023 08:55

I think I might have a positive test this morning as well 😬 but not sure if it's an evap line (I'm not really sure what they look like!) The line is definitely blue in RL but fairly faint. I couldn't find any FRER in any chemists over the weekend, so had to get the CB equivalent

🙏👶TWW ~ From 24 & 25 May 2023 🙆
OopsieeDaisy · 05/06/2023 08:59

@ab0416 Looks like a line to me! I’m not sure what the evap lines look like either. You could try a CB digital if you’re able to get one so that you know for definite? Exciting 😬

Freya8 · 05/06/2023 09:09

@ab0416 oh wow def a line to me congrats babes xxxx

ab0416 · 05/06/2023 09:12

Thanks ladies, I think I'm a bit in shock, as it's our first try since having the mc in April and I didn't expect it to happen so quickly - I'll definitely be doing another test tomorrow (and probably several over the next few days 🤣) to be doubly sure it is actually true!

Mangotango39 · 05/06/2023 09:18

@ab0416 definitely looks like a line to me!!
Great news today on the thread woohoo!
More to come still 🤗
