TWW - 11DPO, anyone else?

[deedee2727]

Hey ladies. Currently 11DPO on first proper cycle since stopping depo. POAS addict and currently all stark white except for some serious squinters. The wait is such a killer! Anyone else in the dreaded two week wait? Baby dust to all x

Hey I am!! Currently 8dpo and time seems to be going very very slowly!!! 😭 I caved in and tested today obvs was negative!! Just want the time to go quickly!! It’s my second cycle and I’m feeling odd this month but could just be me symptom spotting!!

Can deffo see a squint of a line for you fingers crossed!! X

Hey @deedee2727 im currently 10DPO so a day behind you.
I’ve had a few days of seriously feeling symptoms but today I’ve been fine.
I’ve been POAS also. Time is dragging so much.
All have been stark white for me expect one which I’ve since thrown away. It had a squinter last night but I’m convinced it was an EVAP.
DH is away until Sunday night and I might have said I wouldn’t test… hence the throwing in the bin!
I think I’ve attached a photo of it.

hope you get your BFP soon!

Hi,

same here 11 dpo, been using IC for a few days but all come BFN

AF is due monday so I think I’m safe to use a boots early detection tomorrow and hope for the best!

been feeling symptoms but hope its not my body playing up 🙈 normally I don’t have any symptoms before AF

sending baby dust to all x

I'm further behind than you all, only 4DPO and it's going so slowly! I have a pretty short luteal phase & AF due a week today but I already feel like I am going to start my period.

@Ladybar I’m the exact same symptom spotting every little thing! I’m POAS since 4 DPO 😭

@Ncl31 Fingers and toes crossed for you. I think I can defo see a squinter!

@CatiaR Good luck with your testing. Will keep everything crossed for you.

Feeling very teary today and had a tiny bit of brown spotting. Had the same around 6dpo so not sure if I’m too late for IB?
POAS again this evening and of course BFN.

Wishing you all baby dust & BFPs! Great to have some other ladies to chat to xx

@ReginaPhalange12 its the longest two weeks ever but will keel everything crossed for you x

@ReginaPhalange12 Keep everything crossed not keel lol

@deedee2727 thanks! I’ve noticed that the cheapies I bought have been having bad reviews recently so hoping its just not as sensitive as it should but not holding too much hope

its only our first cycle of TTC #1 so not long but caving and testing early was a bad decision! Its very disappointing to see BFNs every day but I kept doing it. Might have been hard to hold off but better off with less disappointment

but we’re not out till AF shows and its not that time yet so fingers crossed!

still lovely to see everyone getting their BFN so baby dust to all x

**BFP I meant lol

Thank you @deedee2727 and for you too. You're not out until AF arrives so there definitely is still a chance ✨

With you ladies , 11dpo today , been cramping for the last week ( I don't normally get pain till af has started ) really sore nipples that have also had a drop of clear fluid ( tmi) . Tested yesterday cheapie and today cbdigital BFN . Af due in 3 days . I normally spot a few days before but nothing as of yet . I wish I had the willpower to not POAS so early as the negatives are so disheartening. This is number 3 but other 2 was 17 and 13 years ago ( I'm 36) . I feel different this cycle but I do wander how many of the symptoms are normally there just now looking for them . Fingers crossed for you all .

I will share my experience in case it’s helpful. I’m 13dpo of my 3rd cycle TTC#2 and feel AF is just around the corner. First 2 cycles of trying I was convinced I was pg based on symptoms.
It tortured me! PMS and pregnancy symptoms are both caused by increased progesterone. Forums are full of people reporting early symptoms but they are usually doing so in retrospect. There are also many women that don’t know they are pregnant until weeks or months after a missed period.

My first pregnancy was some time ago. Was TTC and looking for symptoms but hardly had any pg symptoms until nausea a week late. I also had light bleeding resembling a period from 9dpo and BFNs until 18dpo. I was temping and my temp stayed high so I kept testing and eventually got an ambiguous BFP.

However last cycle my temp also stayed high throughout my period before dropping. For this reason, to save my sanity I have stopped temping once ovulation is confirmed, and no longer check CP or CM much in the luteal phase.

It is maddening and can drive you a little crazy. It’s a waiting game. You aren’t out til (proper full flow) AF shows. Distraction and reading the research and common sense advice on fertility friend’s charting course works best for me.

@CurlyWurly1991 That’s true! With my first she was a happy surprise! Never knew I was pg until I woke up one morning feeling really sick thought it was a two day hangover 😳🤣 never had any symptoms leading up to that morning which wasn’t out of the ordinary for AF but that might be down to the fact I wasn’t wondering whether I was pregnant or not! Said to DH that we should test because of that one time we DTD and low and behold it came up positive straight away and now have a crazy hilarious 4.5 year old!!

I think because this time round we are actively trying I’ve become obsessive over it no matter how much I try and not! So if this cycle isn’t the one then I’m gunna take a step back and just relax with it all! It doesn’t help looking online at early symptoms because as soon as I read it I’m like yep got that one (when really I don’t! 🤣) but in saying that it’s nice to speak to others who are at a similar DPO!

@CurlyWurly1991 thats helpful! I do think I’m out this month as I got brown discharge now that sometimes leads up to AF and been getting bfn but we’ll see until AF turns up.

definitely not testing anymore unless I’m like a week late.

so if that does turn into AF then I'm totally out

Holding onto the small hope that the discharge is just late implantation but fully expecting it to start AF that’s due in 3 days. Definitely don’t want to test anymore and be disappointed again!

feeling still symptoms but again could just be AF coming in. My normal health app in my iphone says AF is no due till tuesday which is generally what I expect and go for.

recently downloaded premom and inputted the same data and seems to think that AF should have been here today and that I’m late already so I’m slightly confused 😐

all I can do is wait 😂

hope everyone that is waiting will get a bfp soon!

How’s everyone keeping this afternoon? I’m absolutely zapped with tiredness today and a little dizzy too. Also had some dark brown spotting this morning so not sure if it’s late implantation or I’m out! Did another IC and not sure if I can see a faint line or imagining at this point 😂 x

@deedee2727 also had some brown spotting and had a bfn on ICs and a boots one so I think I’m out but AF is not due till Tuesday

@deedee2727 ive not had any spotting yet. But I woke this morning with a heavy feeling in my pelvis, mild cramp I guess - possibly as though AF is on its way. Due Tuesday/Wednesday although PCOS might play havoc with that.
BFN on IC this morning so will not test again until Tuesday.

Fingers crossed @Ncl31 today was the only day I spotted but once I wiped there was nothing there but can just be AF coming although I usually don’t spot. I given up this morning since I had a bfn on a boots early detection but now not so sure.

expecting that this months out but we’ll see if AF turns up!

good luck to you x

@CatiaR same to you.
I feel as though I’m out this month too.
I have very mixed feelings this month. I would 100% be over the moon if I get a BFP, but also we’re due to go to Florida and do the parks early September so if I get my BFP then I’ll not be able to go on the big fast rides which I love, any excuse to go back!

Thanks! I’m not overly obsessed about an April due date if I was and did say at the start to husband we were just stopping to prevent it but honestly I have been waiting to be able to TTC for ages as we agreed to wait till we got married first.

cant wait to have one now! But almost 100% sure I’m out this month.

wow florida! Must be amazing 🤩 not too much of a fan of really fast rides but if you’re out in the end enjoy it to the fullest 😊

Florida is our honeymoon, we went away for a week to Spain the day after the wedding. Just to get away and be together.

but Florida has been out mega bucks holiday for the year! So we’re going all out, DH has never been before so want it to be special.

My parents are coming with us and our first day is magic kingdom (the Disney castle) we’ve already said if we conceive this month then we will tell them in front of the castle as that’ll be the first time theyll need to know why I’m about to not go on the rides! It’ll be exciting either way.

my mum hates the bug rides but loves the magic of it all

How exciting! That would be a lovely way to tell them 😊

we got married at the start of the month and had a week off but didn’t do so much as I had family over from abroad for the wedding and we showed them around. We wanted to go to Japan for 2 weeks for our honeymoon but some health issues from MIL meant that we needed to postopone it and be in the country if needed so we’ll travel in the UK instead.

Aww congrats! What date did you get married? We were 8th July!
It all sounds amazing on paper to do these things but whether we get out BFP is another question.
If not then onto next month to try again.

I hope you get your trip to Japan when you’re able to.
