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

I'm 8dpo today and I had a little niggle in my left hand side earlier, and I think I'm a bit crampy but I'm trying to figure out if it's radiating back ache or not 😂 cm has turned more lotiony this am so fingers crossed 🤞😭

MrsB262 · 18/07/2023 14:15

Update - I'm spotting currently, definitely can't imagine that! 😬😬

Myna13 · 18/07/2023 14:16

@Hotmalibu94 keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞

ThelastRolo20 · 18/07/2023 15:02

@Hotmalibu94 sounds promising! fingers crossed too!

@MrsB262 my spotting has stopped so I'm just hoping it was implantation - tomorrow's test can't come soon enough but still could be too early!

@Myna13 how are you getting on? x

ThelastRolo20 · 18/07/2023 15:04

@Hotmalibu94 @MrsB262 @Myna13 - don't think tagging in my previous post worked!

Myna13 · 18/07/2023 15:09

@ThelastRolo20 I'm feeling really exhausted and strange. I've done some pottering around and watching crap on Netflix. But I've got a heavy head and ready to sleep again. My back hurts and my arms feel heavy. Can't wait for this to be over either way.
How are you getting on? So happy to hear you aren't bleeding. Hoping it's implantation and you get a BFP super soon! 🤞

ThelastRolo20 · 18/07/2023 15:17

@Myna13 it's so hard wondering what is and isn't a sign isn't it! I always find the week leading up to a period the worst for that. Just remember all tests have been really early so you'd unlikely know until at least Thursday :) at least you have your adorable dogs for company :)

I'm doing okay thanks, yeah I'm hoping implantation but it could also be not high enough progesterone levels causing early spotting (thank you google!). Expecting to be disappointed with a negative test tomorrow but will test from tomorrow to Saturday to make sure and then call it quits and wait for a period if it's a BFN. xx

Myna13 · 18/07/2023 15:22

@ThelastRolo20 not knowing is definitely the worst! But you're right. I'm grateful to have my floofs for company, especially today.

Don't Google too much. It's easy to read loads and then worry. Testing for the next few days sounds like a good plan. I hope it's a BFP or AF comes along for both of us so we can just move past this and focus on the next cycle 😅

AP27 · 18/07/2023 18:26

Hi again. I said to myself (and to you) that i wouldnt test until af was late... Ha ha, joke's on me! Did a test today, 8dpo, of course a bfn.
I had a good feeling as stronger than usual cramps had woken me on 6 dpo. Well, needless to say i am quite disappointed 😅

thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 18:31

@Myna13 @ThelastRolo20 at least we're all going through it together! The not knowing really does drive you mad! And now I have anticipating the results of an interview to throw in the mix 😅 I think I'm hoping to do my frer tomorrow just for shits and giggles because it's the most sensitive. If I get a false positive again I'll be raging though 😂

**going

I really need to proof read my messages 🙈

thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 18:34

@AP27 it's still mega early don't worry! I'll be 8dpo tomorrow and will definitely be testing so fully expecting a bfn too! We're all in this together! X

ThelastRolo20 · 18/07/2023 18:53

@thejollytrolleydolly mass testing tomorrow morning 😄 how exciting!

CatiaR · 18/07/2023 18:53

I did say we were casually TTC but now I can’t wait to know! Caved in and bought some cheapies that arrive Thursday but still too early to test. We haven’t properly tracked my ovulation but I think I’m roughly 4 or 5 dpo so need to hang on this late next week to try!

I know we just started but now getting all excited 😆

love seeing all the updates from everyone and hope you all get your BFP

but in the meantime enjoy a pic of my troublemaker pup! Bailey is 8 and half months old and full of energy!

@AP27 welcome to the early testers club 😂 you've still got time to get your BFP. Keep us updated with your tests.

@thejollytrolleydolly I'm so glad we're doing this together. It would be a lot more stressful to deal with on our own. I'm doing a frer tomorrow morning too! I'll post my results when I get them. Good luck for your interview! And hoping you get a real BFP tomorrow 🤞

Myna13 · 18/07/2023 19:15

@CatiaR it's so hard to not be excited when our bodies are going through these changes! I hope you get a BFP soonly toon!
PS Bailey is such a cute little pupper. Snugs and treats to him 😋

CatiaR · 18/07/2023 19:23

@Myna13 thanks! Hope you get yours too!

and cuddles to your puppers too they are adorable.

as for mine she still has too much energy and currently doing zoomies with a stick in the garden 😂 hard to keep up sometimes ahah

july89 · 18/07/2023 19:26

So nice seeing everyone's messages. Defo makes the TWW less lonely. This one feels more intense than normal no idea why. Feel like I'm symptom spotting everything even though I'm only 5dpo so it's defo all in my head haha. Going to try and hold out until Sunday before I test but who knows if I'll make it!

thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 20:00

Loads going on tomorrow!! Baby dust to all!! ✨

@CatiaR your puppy!! 😍😍😍 I'm loving these puppy pics!

@Myna13 I know! It makes you feel like you're not losing your mind after all because we're all in the same boat! I think you guys will know before my partner if I get a BFP 😂😂

@july89 you're not far behind me! It's that 7 days before af that's the killer! Xx

CatiaR · 18/07/2023 20:01

@july89 same here! Definitely overthinking and feel like its a long wait 😊

GHJ · 18/07/2023 21:57

Nearly end of my tww now, should see AF tomorrow assuming I'm staying regular on the 29 day cycles I've been having since stopping pill. Negative early tests everyday and not dtd for a while now so think I'm definitely out. Looking forward to next month though! Just hoping AF does arrive now tbh so I can see I'm cycling ok. Here's my happy pup:) congrats to all the bfps, and anyone not bfping this time, it won't be long before we're all twwing together again! (Getting my head around all the lingo!)

Join me on the TWW :)
thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 22:52

@GHJ when was the last time you tested? I've only got a BFP on 13dpo that last 2 times! Feel
Free to test again if you want to but I know af can be a relief too! I was so glad
When my last one arrived because I knew what was happening instead of guessing xx

DawnWW · 19/07/2023 03:49

Hi everyone, joining in for the TWW if that's ok. I have a just turned 1 year old and we haven't started ' properly trying' just seeing what happens. I'm not regular with my cycles but after we started DTD on holiday I backtracked the last one and it looks like we started the day after I ovulated possibly so now wondering and dying to test. It took 2 years to conceive my little one so I think it would take time, tracking, planning etc but I'm still dying to test. Think I'm 8 DPO but unsure. Had a lot of cramping too but might be AF early, who knows. Sorry for the ramble but no one to speak to about this really. Hoping to leave it as late as I can to test but wondering if getting it out of the way and getting that BFN would settle me.

ThelastRolo20 · 19/07/2023 06:30

Hi everyone, tested this morning and BFN! could still be too early who knows, will leave for a couple of days I think before testing again. Good luck to everyone else testing today xx

thejollytrolleydolly · 19/07/2023 06:50

Good morning! So I took a frer this morning at 8dpo and got a squinter. I'm not holding onto hope after my false positive last month from these. Although this is lighter than my false pos so I'm hoping this is the start of my BFP! I'll do either boots or cb in a couple of days and see what they say xx
