Join me on the TWW :)

[thejollytrolleydolly]

Anyone else starting their TWW? I'm 1dpo and need help staying sane whilst I google all of the symptoms under the sun 😂😂 currently googling "how does your cervix feel if you've conceived" lol

@thejollytrolleydolly I'm doing the exact same thing, and you've now given me something else to google! I'm 3dpo and it's driving me insane! Good luck! Hoping for a BFP for you soon ❤

@Myna13 thank you! You too! Knowledge is power! I always find I google everything during the tww! What child are you on? I'm trying to conceive #2 I have one 2.5 year old and have just had my first AF after a MMC last month. Flo is saying I should ovulate today but opk peaked on Tuesday evening so I reckon I ovulated yesterday morning. Hopefully see some BFP's on this thread! X

@thejollytrolleydolly Knowledge definitely is power! I'm finding myself more in tune with my body and feeling things I wouldn't normally notice. We're TTC baby #1. We had a MC in Jun 2022 and then couldn't try again for a while because we found I had Hashimoto's and needed to get my thyroid under control first. It is finally under control, and we are trying again. I use the Apple Health cycle tracking, and it has been pretty accurate. But I go by the consistency of my discharge. Do you find OPK kits work? Might be worth trying if this isn't a successful month.

@Myna13 this month is the first month I've used them as my pregnant friend gave me a load she had left over. I usually go by cm too and the 2 seemed to correlate so I'm guessing they are accurate! Aw we are both trying for our rainbow babies 🥰 hopefully a couple of sticky ones for us! I've got every pregnancy test known to man in my bathroom drawer and really need to hold off testing until my period is due because I waste so many testing early 😂 x

@thejollytrolleydolly I have to keep telling myself that they'll come to us when they're ready. And until then, we've just got to keep trying. I've got two very intuitive doggo's that don't want to leave my side suddenly, so they must sense I am worrying/waiting for something.
Hehe, I'm an early tester too! I did one this morning even though I know it's waaayyy to early. Might as well have dipped it in a cup of water😂Got to wait at least until this time next week before I try and test again. Have more self control than me! You got this! 🤗

@Myna13 omg don't! I did one this morning "just incase" I got pregnant last month and missed it 😂😂 why are we like this! I'm going to try and hold out until at least 10dpo although I normally don't get a BFP before 14dpo 🙈 I got a false positive last month on a frer and it really knocked me for six! So I'm going to stick to different brands this time... at least we've got each other for support xx

@thejollytrolleydolly Glad to know it isn't just me 😂
Oh no! A false positive is so upsetting because for those few minutes you're really happy and excited.
Yes, we got this! We've just got to wait 7-9 days and we can start testing like crazier and hope for BFPs! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
I'm currently cramping on my left side, and I'm really hoping that's what implantation is meant to feel like 😂Dr. Google says all sorts, but I guess we really won't know for some time. I hate not knowing and having to wait 😅

@Myna13 oh god I know, I read it but then only believe it if it relates to what I'm feeling 😂 I know when I have fallen in the past I get a bad stomach about 7dpo then get twinges in my uterus area for the next few days and one day where I feel really anxious and don't want to speak to anyone. So I will be on the lookout for these symptoms again.

Yeah it was so annoying getting the false positive straight after my Mc too as it got both of our hopes up again just to get a bfn the next day 🙄 stupid tests x

@thejollytrolleydolly I love how in-tune you are with your body! I don't remember ANYTHING from the last time! 😂Maybe I will learn over time and will know exactly what to look out for at some point.

@Myna13 I only know because I keep a symptoms diary on flo and both times before my BFP I had the exact same symptoms so I know what to look out for now 😊 it helps to get all of my thoughts out too incase I don't have anyone to talk to about it that day xx

@thejollytrolleydolly Ah! This makes a lot of sense. I haven't tried Flo before. Do you pay for it?

@Myna13 no it's free, you can pay for a premium version but I got a free trial for a year then just unsubscribed. The free version is really good too though x

@thejollytrolleydolly thank you! :) I'll check it out today xx

2dpo here; this cycle has been such a weird one for me.
usually ovulate around CD 16/17 but this cycle I got my peak on CD10.
On CD9 - I had blood when wiping which carried on through the night and next morning with mild mild cramps.
CD 10 - blood had stopped by lunchtime but the cramps where focused down round the right ovary (I usually do get Ovulation Pain but this was more intense).
I’m now CD13 and the cramps around the right ovary are still there, sometimes worse than before.

so now I’m like ‘this cycle is such a weird one, maybe this is signs I’ll be pregnant this month’ - 😂

I really want to not symptom spot or test until day of AF but I can guarnteee you once it hits 7DPO I’ll be peeing on sticks every day 😂

@Nmmck93 oh no! I'm also starting to find weird things in my cycle that are making me think maybe I'll be pregnant this month. Keeping my fingers crossed we see some BFPs soon!
So far, we're a group of early testers 😂 Keep us posted on how the tests go and we can watch the lines together.
Good luck ❤

@Myna13 yeah, I'm just hoping the egg was matured enough. I'm still testing in OPKs daily just incase it was like a false surge in my hormones and that I actually might ovulate this weekend or next week lol.
It really messes with ya head don't it. 🙈

Aw early testers are us lol. We'll I don't have any at the minute, I've ordered easy @ home ones to arrive next week so I think they're due Wednesday maybe; so if they're ontime I'll be testing from then lol 😂

Yeah keep updated.
Symptoms, moods, tests, EVERYTHINGA.

@Nmmck93 welcome to the early testers club! 😂 yes, we're all in this together! I've also been having strange cramping this ovulation period but mine has been on the left side. It's also a bit tender if I press down the very bottom of my abdomen just before my pelvic bone. Very much looking forward to symptom spotting and going insane together in the coming weeks. I'm hoping this is a lucky thread and we all get our BFP's!!

@Nmmck93 I'm glad your tests only arrive on Wednesday, because otherwise you would have tested by now like @thejollytrolleydolly and me 😂
@thejollytrolleydolly I've been having some cramping on my left side today. I'm also exhausted and super nauseous. I didn't want to eat my meal prep lunch, it just didn't appeal to me. So I ate some carrots, cucumber & hummous instead. It's been a strange day. I keep telling myself it's too early for me to have these symptoms 😂
I really hope this is a lucky thread and we all have BFPs sooner rather than later.

Hi hope it's ok to join! I'm definitely early tester club too so it's so comforting to know I'm not alone. I know it's crazy when it's way too soon and I don't like the disappointment but I think I don't like the not poas even more! I'm a little bit further on approx 7dpo I think (not measured ovulation this month so estimating dates!).

@Myna13 I'm also knackered which is weird because I've had loads of sleep 😂 I've been the opposite though absolutely ravenous today! I'm only 1 or 2dpo though but my cervix is still high and soft which is a good sign! I knew I was pregnant the last time from checking my cervix every day! No other symptoms as of yet apart from feeling rather emotional today. My daughter said I love you mummy in the car and I started crying lol x

@GHJ welcome to the early testers club 😂 it's so excited you're further along than us! You'll get to test before we should. Hoping for a BFP for you 🤞
@thejollytrolleydolly your little one sounds adorable! Also, I have no idea how to read my cervix like that lol. You might have just helped me dictate the google rabbit hole I'm going down tonight 😂

@GHJ oooh 7dpo! Yes I would poas every day from where you are! To me it's like gambling maybe you will win and maybe you won't! 😂 hopefully you will be the first winner on this post! Welcome to the group of likeminded early birds x

@Myna13 I've only been feeling my cervix for the past 6 months or so but I think I'm a pro now 😂 it's how I knew my period was coming last month! Deffo worth a rummage around! 😂 x

Hi @Myna13 and @thejollytrolleydolly thanks for the welcome. Not winning yet unfortunately test very much negative this morning. Starting to think I'm out but as I'm still 5 days before period due hopefully I'm wrong. I'm only using boots strips too not early response, even so I'm feeling a bit disheartened.

@GHJ please don't be disheartened. You're only 8dpo. There is still time for that second line to show up. You're not out until AF comes to visit. Have a lovely day! And I hope for a different result for you in a few days time.

Hi guys can I join 😁

Cycle 2 of TTC#1 💕
Currently approx 4DPO though I don't properly track, just go by Flo estimates and if that ties in with symptoms (had a 2 day hormone headache this time at the same time 😒)

DTD on CD8, CD9 and CD11 and then ovulated CD12 so hoping we would have managed to catch it despite not DTD on O day 😭
I'm thinking next month I might return to natural cycles charting if we don't catch, I was doing my temps to prevent pregnancy before!

Last month I tested early and getting BFNs was so disheartening so this month I'm trying to be more chill which is working so far but will probably change the closer I get to AF 😅
