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

@MrsB262 Those lines are sooo strong!! Congratulations on your BFP!!

@thejollytrolleydolly well done on your promotion, if AF does arrive I think it’ll make pregnancy with your best friend extra magical! My best friend is in her first trimester and I know how excited I will be if I fall pregnant at the same time!!

@CatiaR keeping my fingers crossed for you!! My AF is due a week tomorrow (Wednesday) right before a trip away on Thursday so would love to know before I go so I know if I can have a tipple or not!

thejollytrolleydolly · 25/07/2023 19:18

@Biscuitbeann thank you! I'm really chuffed!

So I just spotted once this afternoon when I checked my cervix but now it's gone back up high again and the spotting has stopped! I'm very confused!!😂 hopefully I will have an answer by tomorrow x

@Biscuitbeann Exciting! Hopefully you’ll know before you go, fingers crossed for you 😊

Biscuitbeann · 25/07/2023 19:30

@thejollytrolleydolly honestly the female body is an enigma! Fingers crossed for tomorrow, keep us posted 🤍

thejollytrolleydolly · 25/07/2023 19:43

@Biscuitbeann it's doing my head in! 😂 are you going anywhere nice for your trip away? It definitely would be nice to know before you go! Aperol spritz or not 😊 x

Congratulations on your promotion @thejollytrolleydolly !
Staying hopeful for you that the spotting isnt the start of AF!

No AF here yet, but super bad backache. Not had my usual migraine yet. Flo app has pushed back my expected AF to tomorrow though for some reason so we shall see if it shows up 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hotmalibu94 · 25/07/2023 19:45

@Biscuitbeann hopefully you get your BFP before your trip! 😍

thejollytrolleydolly · 25/07/2023 19:47

@Hotmalibu94 thank you 😊 I'm the same as you really bad backache and I've broken out in loads of little spots today but nothing else! My spotting was literally one whisper of red when I felt my cervix and wiped after but it feels as though it's gone back up and I've had 0 more bleeding after that... god knows I'm so confused this month 😂 last month was so straight forward 🙈 x

Hotmalibu94 · 25/07/2023 19:52

Honestly @thejollytrolleydolly I swear these last 2 cycles since we started TTC my body is doing weird stuff that it had never done before 😂 but this month is all the same stuff as last month so I'm going with probably just period brewing again 😂 its less disappointing that way! Maybe you just scratched it accidentally or something who even knows at this point 🙈 think I might wait til Thursday or Friday if AF doesn't show and test then!

thejollytrolleydolly · 25/07/2023 20:48

@Hotmalibu94 yeah me too! I think if it's going to come it will be tomorrow so hopefully I will know by the end of the day! Keep me updated and hopefully we will get our BFP's and if not we've got each other for support next month 😊 x

Hotmalibu94 · 25/07/2023 20:53

Absolutely @thejollytrolleydolly ! It's always good to have someone to support you through 😁 sounds like you're pretty much the same cycle as me, 26/27 days? 😂 So hopefully we can sync up next month if we both get AF!

Biscuitbeann · 25/07/2023 23:24

@thejollytrolleydolly @Hotmalibu94 thanks guys! Heading off to Paris for a hen party so would be great to know before I go! Even if AF arrives at least I can drown the disappointment with some cocktails!!

are You both testing again tomorrow or just waiting for AF?

Hotmalibu94 · 26/07/2023 06:54

@Biscuitbeann I'm going to test tomorrow or Friday if AF doesn't arrive in the meantime. Probably Friday as I'm off work then.
Paris sounds amazing! I hope you have a fabulous time!

CatiaR · 26/07/2023 06:58

Good morning everyone!

9dpo and negative still and same symptoms albeit less sore boobs than the other day but still about 5 days left till AF is due so plenty of time to see!

hope everyone has a lovely day! Will catch up with new messages after work 😊

satellitesunshine · 26/07/2023 08:07

10dpo and bfn so i reckon i’m out. can i ask - i never really get ewcm which i think is why i don’t conceive without preseed but is there an alternative to this like a vitamin to help with cm? preseed worked like magic for us but it also kills the mood a bit 😅

Ncl31 · 26/07/2023 08:34

8DPO for me today, I’ve woken up with some pretty deep and nasty zits on my cheek and chin, I do sometimes get some zits on the lead up to AF anyway. I felt nausea on days 6/7DPO but feel fine today.
I know it’s too early because I may not have even implanted yet but I still POAS this morning, obviously it was a BFN 🙄

Poasaddicted · 26/07/2023 08:46

Hi all,

long time lurker!! So me and my partner aren’t actively trying to conceive, but we are very open to if a pregnancy happens then we’re becoming parents. I’ve been feeling a bit strange, and calculated that today I’m 10DPO, so I just took a FR Rapid Response, and this is what it looks like. Am I imagining this line, or is it there?! I’m so nervous to tell my partner. I know he’ll be super excited, but I can’t help but feel anxious hahaha

Sminbags · 26/07/2023 08:49

congratulations, I can see a line! It’s still very early so maybe test again tomorrow to see if you get a darker line 😊
can I ask what your symptoms have been? X

Poasaddicted · 26/07/2023 08:55

Ahhhh thank you!! I think I’m going to wait till the day my period was due to start (in 5 days) then I’ll do a digital one, and give that to him.

and yes, so it’s mainly been sensitive nipples, cramping my lower abdomen, and constipation and nausea. Thought I had just caught a bug to begin with, but it hasn’t gone away now.

I just saw your post, I’m so sorry to hear of your CP. Got my fingers (and toes) crossed for you to get a BFP this cycle❤️

Sminbags · 26/07/2023 09:01

Thank you so much 🥰
I hope it’s a sticky bean for you 💖
Terrible cramps today and keep checking to see if my period has started every 10 minutes as it feels like it’s on it’s way, I will keep you updated, please let us know your outcome too 💖

Ncl31 · 26/07/2023 09:22

@Poasaddicted looks a positive to me.
Did it come up in the time frame? Does it have colour?
how exciting!! Congrats! Hope it’s a sticky bean for you x

GHJ · 26/07/2023 09:30

@Myna13 any news for you? My AF still not arrived here now a week later than I expected and still daily negatives, so frustrating. No signs either way really so think it's a bad cycle. Waiting to hear when my blood test will be. Had a bit of blood yesterday but only once then nothing again.

satellitesunshine · 26/07/2023 10:20

listen i know i’m just wishful thinking here lol but does anyone see a hint of something? dh can see it too which makes me feel less crazy but 😅

Join me on the TWW :)
Myna13 · 26/07/2023 10:30

@Poasaddicted that looks like a positive to me. Congratulations!

@GHJ I'm in a similar position to you. AF was due on Friday so I'm currently 5 days late and no sign of AF. Been testing every morning only to get negatives. I'm feeling extremely cranky and tired. Like I went to bed at 9pm last night and woke up only at 8am (I work from home, and my husband is a teacher on school summer holidays so I had the privilege of being able to sleep in and wake up just in time to shower and log on because that's what my body needed). My whole body aches and I've got a sharp lower back pain.
At this point, I'm happy to not be pregnant, I would just like AF to show up so I can focus on the next cycle. It's the not knowing that's frustrating. You're not alone in this. Are you having a hcg blood test? I think I might ask my GP for one if AF isn't here by Monday. How are you feeling?

fleur89 · 26/07/2023 11:20

@Poasaddicted congratulations! That looks exactly how mine did at 10dpo. I also got a CB digital 1-2 weeks that day but they're expensive so can wait a bit if you'd prefer. At 15dpo I got 2-3 weeks
