1DPO... Any tww buddies?

[Kellyaust]

Officially back to 1dpo...2nd cycle after MMC. Anyone else??

@LittleMiss2023 ahh interesting, I ovulated same day as you! Maybe it is twins!! How exciting!

I just don’t get the online calculator thing in their website as the tests are marketed as though you can use them to test 5-6 days earlier than your period but when I put in my details it says the earliest I can test is Saturday which is the day before I’m due my period. I think I’m out this month as I’ve always tested pos by now with cheapies so I need to try to get my head around it being another unsuccessful cycle but also clutching at straws. Seems to be slightly misleading marketing which is also confusing.

@Twocatstwodogs i realised this with FRER as well, I was due af weds but they gave me a date of the Sunday to test on a 6 day early test. Very strange!

AF is late but I can feel her building up and wow is she peeing me right off... If she was a person she would be so strangled right now 😡

So weird, I guess it’s marketing but they can’t say it’s 99% accurate until one day or the day of your period so maybe that’s why.

Urghh so frustrating for you, my last cycle was stupidly long, this one could be too l guess, it’s so horrible waiting and waiting just to reset the clock. Hope you’re ok

Yes I've noticed on the packaging even though they're 6 day early tests it still says to wait u til the day of missed period for an accurate result... Suppose they're covering themselves as well.

I'm as good as can be really... Just plodding through like you do. I would've been 24 weeks tomorrow and no doubt the size of an elephant 😔

@Twocatstwodogs I'm convinced it a EVAP. If af isn't here by sat I will do another test x

@Kellyaust yeah that’s probably it.

I’ve got another bfn this morning and I’m 11dpo today so I’m counting myself fully out this cycle. I have lots of pre af feelings, think it will be soon.

I've decided I’m going to get some fertility testing done I think for me and oh. I’m close to 40 and I don’t have the time to wait really.
Going to book something in when we get back home.

@Jadeypie I’ve never had an evap so not sure but it looks like a proper line to me. Really hope so for you. You’re so strong not testing today! Maybe take a few different ones tomorrow to be sure either way?

@Twocatstwodogs aww your thinking about @july89 test I didn't post a pic of mine ha 🙈

Awww it's still early days I done a test at 11dpo and it was negative done one at 12 which am assuming is a EVAP don't count yourself out yet untill AF shows xx

I think this one has actually stuck around for now , hopefully this will be our first baby 🥹 thank you girls so much for the help with the TWW baby dust to you all

@Hopefulfirstround awww I'm so happy for you ❤️

Ooh look at those beautiful lines 😍

Congrats @Hopefulfirstround got everything crossed for you 🤞

I am stressing so much now, still no AF, all the signs but it's just not coming.... Thinking back now to ovulation n at the time I said it felt different... It didn't feel "normal" for me... Not as much cm and pain wasn't just one sided as its always been. Now I'm thinking I didn't ovulate. Makes sense now my period hasn't come yet either but have all the symptoms. GP for me on Monday I guess, I feel like my body is failing me and I don't think anyone takes me seriously. I have never in my life ever been late for AF. Nightmare 😕

One of the cruelest things about trying to conceive is that pre-period symptoms are nearly identical to early pregnancy ones.

It seems like a horribly unfair joke that our bodies do that!

Congratulations @Hopefulfirstround are you planning on doing a digital?

@Kellyaust oh you must feel like going mad! Have you been doing tests? Definitely sounds like a hormone issue if your not pg. Or just a later ovulation. Your body won't be failing you its just up the wall hopfully the gp will be able to give you some reassurance xx

I done another test this evening different brand and it's stark white so yesterday was a EVAP! Also feel like AF is going to come either tonight or tomorrow so a new cycle for me am taking the let's see what happens approach because I'm not getting sucked into the ttc obsession!

@Jadeypie oops, sorry my bad. Definitely test again and see what happen, sending positive vibes.

@Hopefulfirstround so exciting, those lines look great to me, keeping everything crossed for you.

@Kellyaust totally feel you, I feel the same, I feel like I’m just not quite right after the mc and the period symptoms are such a kick in the teeth. I regret not having the surgery for my mc sooner, I thought it was better to wait and let it pass naturally but it didn’t and it took ages. I had a lot of tests and scans around the mc done so I know structurally things were ok and I was ovulating, in my case I think the next step for me is some in-depth fertility testing for me and oh.

But today has been really hard with the kids and I think I have the pms rage which never helps but now I’m thinking should I just leave it with the two we have and stop ttc. Some days it’s really bloody hard work and I know I tend to think like this after each unsuccessful cycle. If I were to average it out I’d say I want another about 80% of the time, and the other times I can’t decide what I want. But is 80% sure actually enough, maybe I should actually have zero doubts?

Does anyone else have those doubting periods?

@Jadeypie so I decided to go for a walk with my teens and toddler on the sea front where we live for 2 hours... Clear my head etc... I got home and I've started AF 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 never thought I'd be so pleased to see the witch!!! Sprry about your evap they're absolutely horrible, I had 3 last cycle!! And ya know what I'm also considering taking a back seat now... Its all too much stress.

@Twocatstwodogs you're absolutely allowed to have doubts, especially when you have bad days, sometimes I do think I would've been fine if I'd not conceived again... I was quite happy how things were, but since the MC it's like this thing has taken over me and I can't cope with thinking I won't have anymore.... MC really do mess up your mind... Xx

@Kellyaust yay!! Weird to celebrate af but hey ho, it’s a good sign. Glad you had a nice walk and things are less of a waiting game at least for now. Might be a relief from all the dtd too maybe 🤦‍♀️🤣

I think I’m feeling similarly to you, I just don’t know how I feel right now. I know that if, by some miracle I do get pregnant then I’d be really pleased and relieved the decision is made for me. Very weird emotions. Af is due tomorrow for me so just a waiting game for me to reset too.

@Kellyaust I love a good walk in nature to clear my mind and breathe in the air it really does help! Oh I'm glad AF has arrived for you so u can move forward! How do u feel? A weight lifted? Yes I agree it's too stressfull!

@Twocatstwodogs yes sometimes I think is it wrong to have a baby for a sibling because we arehappy now with our little family. But then after my loss like @Kellyaust said it seemed to make me desperate. after the way this tww has had me I'm thinking to stop the tracking every thing have sex when we want ECT and just see what happens I seriously can not be arsed being a crazy obsessive person every month

Also BFN this morning ladies so just waiting for AF due today x

@Twocatstwodogs yes very strange feeling celebrating AF but at least I know I'm not absolutely broken now. Fingers crossed yours arrives so you can get it out the way again...

And I agree @Jadeypie i am going to try pull back from being so obsessed, this last cycle really took it's toll... Hopefully if we stop being so crazy it might just happen 🤷‍♀️

Definitely not going crazy on dtd like last month 😂

@Kellyaust it's the best way forward mentally I think and you was a champ last month 🤣🤣 but then that's exhausting too. Just go with the flow and see what happens that's the best we can do I think all the tracking the pressure the scheduled sex no wonder our cycles go AWOL coz we have been that stressed out. Fingers crossed the relax approach gives us our BFP

Also the witch got me today but am fine with that tbh am glad to give my mind a rest from all the symptom spotting and crack open that bottle of wine I promised myself 🤣 x

I think I way over did it last month, when I got pregnant I only dtd twice in fertile window! Just shows more isn't always better 😂

Well fresh cycle for both of us... Enjoy your wine 😂😂

@Jadeypie missed this but cheers 🥂 hope you enjoyed your wine. I don’t drink but it’s times like this when I could do with a glass!!

@Kellyaust totally agree with @Jadeypie your dtd was off the charts, total champ! You deserve a bit of chill now I reckon and dtd when you fancy it!

I’m waiting for the witch today, felt like it might be overnight but nothing yet. Feel like it’s catching up with me, so tired atm.
I don’t know how I feel, think I need to do what you guys are doing and just not think about it for a bit and see what I feel with a bit of perspective.

how are the positive ladies getting on? Any pregnancy symptoms? Probably too early but always interesting how different it is for everyone

Okay girls, I think I need your help here. See pictures attached, I am due AF today but nothing yet so I thought I should do a test just to get it out of my system. The test was a bit odd and I had to turn it a bit to get it started as hadn’t absorbed into the windows so I think it was a bit late to start. But what is this and I imagining something, I think I am, I’ve had very very faint lines in the past before, but this looks even more faint and weird than those. Is this an evaporation line? I’m so confused. I’d told myself it would be negative stark white, no matter what and now this weird result is properly messing with my head. What do I do with this?
