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 it feels like the longest wait doesn’t it! I’ll be 8dpo Sunday and going to test then but like you say itl probably be a BFN and I’ll just get myself all down about it. I’ve had a fair few cramps today so I’m hoping it’s implantation! I’ve had the craziest dreams too and they are becoming more and more realistic.

I think the biggest give away will be my boobs getting bigger which I’m guessing will come next week if I’m lucky enough to convince.

how have you been feeling?

Hey ladies! I’m sooooo excited to see more BFPs! Said I wouldn’t test today but I spiralled because I’m not feeling great. I’m 9DPO and I’ll add a photo of todays tests! One photo of my wondfo today, one of yesterday & todays wondfo (top is yesterday, bottom today) and then Premom which normally I take ages to get a line on.
Let me know what you think! Praying this is a sticky one and it would be third time lucky 🥹🙏🤞🏻✨

@LacedBouquet im so so happy for you ✨ and praying with you that it’s a sticky one! I can’t wait for that feeling again, I’ll be testing Sunday which I know is too early but I can’t help myself lol

ReginaPhalange12 · 24/08/2023 20:35

@LacedBouquet they all look positive to me 🥰
Hoping for a sticky bean for you.

@Longtobe2023 it really does! I have had 0 symptoms. I usually have ovulation pain but nothing this month plus was only able to DTD once so I have a feeling this won't be my month. Let us know how you get on Sunday 🤞🏽

Mamalog · 24/08/2023 20:38

@ReginaPhalange12 me too! I’ve fallen pregnant from only doing it once in fertile window before and I know plenty of people who have so don’t loose hope! Hopefully we get our BFP 💞

Mamalog · 24/08/2023 20:39

@LacedBouquet you’re pregnant! So excited for you. Congrats 🥰💞

LacedBouquet · 24/08/2023 21:17

Thank you @Longtobe2023 @ReginaPhalange12 & @Mamalog ! Need to try and keep it cool now and not test for a few days.

As for symptoms, here's what I have had so far:

Ovulation- 6DPO- absolutely nothing, not one teeny thing, thought I was out this month LOL
7DPO- Woke up with a slight headache and could taste blood in my mouth? Very weird! Didn't feel as hungry. In the evening I had a lot of cramping mid-right lower side and I don't usually cramp. Very tired.
8DPO- Woke up again with a slight headache that lasted throughout the day. Didn't sleep well the night before, kept waking up to pee. Had upset tummy. Was still off my food and had a random wave of nausea that disappeared. Occasional cramping especially down near inner thigh/ hip. First vvfl.
9DPO (today)- Again woke up with headache that's been dull and lasted all day. Felt much worse today. Upset tummy. Went off my coffee this morning and really struggled to eat my breakfast. Unbelievably tired, napped in the afternoon. Occasional cramping. Second vvfl but darker than yesterdays.

CM has been watery, cervix is also high and slightly softer than usual but not as soft as ovulation time.

I can't think of anything else but if I do I will let you know x

ReginaPhalange12 · 24/08/2023 21:45

@Mamalog thank you, you're right, I need to keep reminding myself of that ❤️

Mamalog · 24/08/2023 22:52

I’ve only just been looking into method of checking the cervix so I don’t know much about it. I’m only 2 or 3 DPO, my cervix is still high but it feels kind of hard? I mean I don’t know how it usually feels as I’ve not done this before but it doesn’t feel soft like some of the websites say it should if you’ve conceived, they say soft like a sponge/your ear lobe etc but it feels kind of hard like the tip of my nose. Now I’m thinking that I’ve not conceived already, why did I do that 😅 also creamy discharge rather than watery or sticky so no idea if that means anything

LacedBouquet · 24/08/2023 23:00

@Mamalog That sounds perfectly normal for 2-3DPO 😊
Mine was exactly the same, it’s only starting to very slightly soften now and my CM was creamy until 6DPO!

All good, cervix doesn’t always change anyway for pregnancy and if it does it’s normally around 14DPO x

Mamalog · 24/08/2023 23:07

@LacedBouquet ahh that’s reassured me! I need to stop googling because all of the websites say different things and it’s sending me crazyyy😵‍💫😅

Longtobe2023 · 25/08/2023 07:20

Morning everyone! Hope your all feeling great today and the TWW isn’t dragging too much (mine has been the slowest it’s ever been ha!)

6DPO for me today, although I think it’s actually 7DPO. I’ve been having the craziest dreams this week I honestly thought I was losing my marbles!

im certainly symptom spotting but I had quite a few cramps last night and again this morning along with the achiest legs! It not easy when it’s all you’ve ever wanted and your praying it’s a BFP when that time comes to test ✨

still not a single bit of CM and my cervix is that high I can barely reach it, BBT is still above my cover line too so feeling hopeful!

Morning! I'm 4dpo now (although in my head also trying to rationalise that maybe I'm 5dpo so I can test earlier 😆). I have cramps and have done since yesterday, but I've also been having very loose bowel movements so I think it's cause of that 😅 every so often I get weird belly button feelings but I've gotten those in months where I've had a BFN too.

Biggest difference for me this month is that my CM is different to other months. The last few months I've had what felt/looked like "dry" EWCM for almost the whole time from ovulation to AF, that was kind of like slime? And yellow. I had that yesterday but today am completely dry (I know it's still only the morning though). Been having some very vivid dreams, but that's not that helpful for me cause I always do. For ladies that had a BFP, what was your CM like between ovulation and getting a positive test?

OH had a dream on the night I had a positive OPK that he was there and I was giving birth, he can't remember if it was vaginal or csection though 😅 who knows, maybe this is actually our cycle!

Slept like I was hit by a bloody bus last night, got 9.5 hours and it was a huge struggle to get up! Am sat on the train already late for work 😂

I hope everyone has a good day! Congrats to all the BFPs so far, loving seeing them!

Mamalog · 25/08/2023 09:24

Another symptom today, not sure if it means anything but I’m breaking out so BAD! Got some monstrous spots this morning which is unusual for me at this point in my cycle 🫠 I hardly ever even get spots! anyone else?

HollyBrwn · 25/08/2023 12:58

I'm sorry if this is a TMI picture but just looking to see if anyone has had anything similar to this 7dpo?
I didn't have anything like this the last time and I am really hoping it's not the start of my AF 🥺 xx

2DPO
ReginaPhalange12 · 25/08/2023 13:12

@HollyBrwn it looks like it could be implantation bleeding 😃 keep an eye on it, I believe it should only last a couple of days

BrwnX · 25/08/2023 13:22

I was thinking this @ReginaPhalange12 I will keep an eye on it. Thank you ❤️

CoffeePlease89 · 25/08/2023 13:24

@HollyBrwn it could very well be implantation bleeding, I had it with both mine and my second it was actually like a full blown mini period that lasted 1.5 days. However I don't think my implantation bleeds started until around 10 or dpo as it takes a while for the blood to travel down once implantation has happened, so perhaps you implanted super early! Fingers crossed for you.

BrwnX · 25/08/2023 13:44

Yeah maybe @CoffeePlease89 I suppose only time will tell 🙈🤞🏻 x

LacedBouquet · 25/08/2023 14:29

@HollyBrwn Has there been anymore since? It could be implantation!

I had slightly pink CM yesterday but it’s since gone x

BrwnX · 25/08/2023 14:32

I had it slightly yesterday and then that today but it hasn't come to much @LacedBouquet x

LacedBouquet · 25/08/2023 14:36

@BrwnX A good sign then 😊 How long is your luteal phase normally?

BrwnX · 25/08/2023 14:42

I feel my cycle has been a little all over the place since my MC 4 weeks ago. Going with ovulation tests I peaked on day 17 and currently on 7dpo. I have still been continuing to test my ovulation just to see my LH levels coming down and I will say it's taking longer to come down this time round than it did last time x

Stephy1024 · 25/08/2023 16:34

8dpo so thought I'd try my luck and see. But it's a BFN for me lol.

LacedBouquet · 25/08/2023 18:11

@BrwnX Hopefully all is good though! My slight bleeding is identical to yours now and I’ve got vfls! Hoping for a good hour come for you 🙏
