2DPO

[Longtobe2023]

Hi everyone!! Currently on the dreaded TWW and could do with some company to stop me obsessing ha!

I feel like this month I’m in with a chance since my MMC in June! I’ve noticed lots of watery CM over the weekend, along with pain in my left boob and then positive OPK followed by a large spike in temp so fingers crossed my ovulation is back on track!

I would love to hear about others symptoms around implantation up till your BFP :)

@ReginaPhalange12 sorry for bfn but still super early! Yes mine is 8-9 days! I normally get my first vvfl around 9 days. This time I’m not expecting much but have decided not to test unless I’m a week late from my normal AF due date so around 16dpo to avoid more heartbreak x

@LacedBouquet that's very wise, I don't know why I do it to myself with early testing. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

BFN on a FRER this morning & AF due to arrive tomorrow so I'm pretty sure I'm out 😔

@ReginaPhalange12 Im the same, period due tomorrow and BFN this morning, hope you’re ok lovely. I’ll test again tomorrow but not feeling it.

@LacedBouquet that must be tough, it’s really hard waiting. Sending love x

@LacedBouquet I forgot to ask, do you take anything to lengthen it? I've heard a few things but I'm not sure if it's an issue, I've read so many conflicting things.

@Blueskies4 sorry to hear you're in the same boat, fingers crossed AF doesn't show for us tomorrow. I'm feeling so deflated today, I have had 3 pregnancies (1 DC) but it's much harder this time around & I went into this so naively.

Sorry to hear yous have had BFN @ReginaPhalange12 @Blueskies4 😢 I know we say we aren't going to test and put ourselves through it but we do and it's normal so don't beat yourself up about it as we all do it!

That's my plan this time @LacedBouquet. I got my static smile on the CB this morning we will need to DTD tonight 🙈
I didn't get a strong dye stealer on the strip tests, although it was the darkest it's been but I'm going to go with the CB and keep testing with the strip tests anyway so tomorrow I should be 1dpo 🙄 x

@ReginaPhalange12 Im sorry to hear that, it’s really tough. I’ve had 5 pregnancies and have one DC too. The TTC just becomes an earlier extension of the waiting and hoping once you have a positive doesn’t it.

@BrwnX its hard not to obsess isn’t it, waiting’s the worst!

6 dpo and I've been getting cramps on and off today. Hopefully it's implantation or I'm just imaging it lol. Anyway its my birthday on Friday and me and the other half are going to the lake district for the weekend. Maybe I'll test on Monday 🤷‍♀️

Thank you @Blueskies4 you're right, it does. It's so draining doing OPKs / planning (not so easy now we have a DC 😂) and TWW but I'm sure when we get our BFPs it'll be worth it.

Thank you @BrwnX good luck over the next couple of weeks. Hoping this is your month 🤞🏽

@ReginaPhalange12 To lengthen mine I have tried all sorts of things and nothing works lol! Tried Vitex for several months, B complex and even progesterone last month. The progesterone still resulted in spotting from 10DPO which is when I would normally get my period. My body just wants to shed the lining after 9 days regardless. I've also been going to acupuncture weekly for 2 months. That's not done anything either.

That's great you got your static smiley @BrwnX ! I think you're meant to ovulate 1-2 days after that so today would be ovulation day and then tomorrow 1dpo?

I'm at same stage as you @Stephy1024 7dpo today but yesterday at 6dpo had lots of cramps right in the middle during the evening. They've gone today though. It even happened when DTD which is a first for me lol!

I always find this part of the TWW the hardest, I find my exercise routine & diet go to pot but despite this I have managed so far not to become a crazy lady which I am taking as a plus this month :D x

@LacedBouquet I put Vit B complex in my Amazon basket last night 😄 I think mine used to be 9 or 10 days but a few months ago I started taking a high dose of vitamin C and it's lengthened by a day or 2 although I'm not entirely sure if it's just coincidence.

I'm not sure what's happening with me, 11DPO, AF due today but nothing yet, I have a very sore back today though. I suspect I'm going to have a slightly longer cycle like a did a few months ago, FRER this morning was a BFN 👎🏼

AF with vengeance today ladies, dammit! On the plus I don’t have to start saving for maternity this month… trying to look for the positives in the negative!

So I got my static on CD20 in the morning and then tested at night with the strip ones which was a dye stealer and a dye stealer yesterday morning also so we have just been DTD over the past few days to cover ourselves 😅 (it sounds like a chore) So I'm taking maybe today as my 1dpo or should I go from yesterday? @LacedBouquet

Sorry to hear that @Blueskies4 but it's good you are looking at the positives!

Big hugs to you all girls, such a shitty time for us all 🫶🏻

Me too @Blueskies4 😔 good luck for next month 🤞🏽

Ladies I’m the same, AF arrived today at 8 days post ovulation 😩
And the same old, I have a faint line this evening, can you guys see it? This always happens and it never works out x

I’m so sorry to hear your AF has arrived ladies! @LacedBouquet life is very cruel sometimes when given that glimmer of hope with a faint line isn’t it!

That’s my jolly holidays over and on our way back home but thankfully the weather is lovely so that’s a surprise!

currently 7 DPO for me and it’s going to be hard work going home knowing there’s tests in the draw and it’s waaay too early to even show! Is it bad I’ve felt so guilty everytime I drank this holiday thinking that could of been my chance and I’m ruining it having fun :(

experiencing a lot of like pulling/air sensation in the middle lower belly so hoping it’s a good sign and not the humongous squid tea I had last night lol

hope everyone is keeping sane in this TWW

I'm back from my night away to the lake district with the other half for my birthday and I'm now engaged 💍❤️. I couldn't have been any happier. But 9dpo and thought I'd test.

@Stephy1024 that is the most amazing news 🥰 newly engaged AND your BFP!! it must be fate, congratulations ✨✨

Thank you @Longtobe2023 I honestly think I'm still in a little shock about the whole thing. But trying to not get too far ahead of myself just yet.

@Stephy1024 enjoy every second of it 🥰 I’m going to resist testing till Wednesday I think, I’m smiling as I’m writing this though because I know I’ll test every single day knowing me lol

my app is now saying in 9dpo and I’m symptom spotting to the fullest again! It’s just these dull pulling sensations I keep getting and indigestion but looking back I had this last month I think so I’m trying not to get carried away.

@Longtobe2023 I really want too. I had a mmc in April but trying to be positive that this I'd a different pregnancy.

Wednesday sounds like a good time to test. But curiosity gets the better of you doesn't it lol.

Symptom stopping is the worst isn't it. Wondering if things are different to the normal. Best of luck for Wednesday 🤞🏻

@Stephy1024 i can imagine how you feel! I had mine in June and I just know I’ll be an anxious mess if I got my BFP, you can only try to enjoy it as much as possible ay!

have you got many symptoms?

since the second week of my TWW my stomach has be grumbling none stop and keeps having odd feelings, mainly when laid down at night (symptom spotting again haha) I can’t help but think I’m out though as my AF is due Saturday and I had sore boobs before when I got my BFP but haven’t got them this time. But then again I didn’t know I was pregnant last time and didn’t test till 19dpo lol

@Longtobe2023 sorry my message has typo's. I really should slow down when texting lol.

Exactly, it's always going to be a worry I think isn't it. But we try to be positive.
I had cramps at 6dpo for a day on and off and my boobs feel slightly tender but that's its really. Got those crazy dreams that come with the pregnancy hormones to look forward to.

I honestly think every pregnancy is different. With my son 10 years ago I didn't realise I was pregnant till I'd missed my second period. (Had implantation bleeding and thought that was my period 🙈) Wednesday will be here before you know it. Fingers crossed.

@Stephy1024 congratulations, lovely news 🥰

Awww congratulations

@Stephy1024 how are you doing? Also hope everyone else is ok!
