Anyone in TWW? Or TTC in January 2024?

[BeautyAndTheBump1]

I'm 1dpo and it's already dragging 🙄

Anyone else in TWW or TTC in January?

@Ella31 yes definitely possible, although I’d be concerned if it is usually this late as that would mean a luteal phase of like 7 days which I’ve read isn’t long enough for viable pregnancy. I am however wondering if I’ve ovulated later this month as my OPK rose significantly earlier in the month but then I got hit with D&V and I’ve now read that the body can try to ovulate but then delay for things like illness etc?!

great shout I’ll get some cheap tests, I’m also just going to try stop testing 😂 I just feel we weren’t successful this month.

ive just read the chat previous messages and im so sorry about your boys, I truly am.

Hi guys! Can I join the party late! Possibly on 1 or 2 dpo! Not 100% sure this month 🙈 I’m 40 and trying for my first and so worried I’ve missed my chance! On our 6month of trying. Can’t have done anymore this month so fingers crossed x

Welcome @Em39al! I hope this is your month!

Just tested at 7dpo. I don't know why I do this to myself. I know its going to be negative either way but its like a compulsion at this point.

@Kofifi

I literally just tested at 4 dpo hahaa obviously knowing full well it would be impossible to get a positive.

I think sometimes you just need to get it out of your system so you can get on with your day.

Im obsessing over my bbt instead so far. I'd quite like to do a test with my partner this time when I'm more confident

I caved and tested last night on an IC at 8dpo 🙃 and there was a vvvvfl although DH said he could see it. Did another this morning with FMU which was slightly more obvious and then again around 1pm and it’s looking darker! Had a CP in November so feeling very nervous!

@Wonderpants3 congratulations. Try stay positive. You're pregnant until proven otherwise.

@Wonderpants3 that's a great line, early congratulations 🎉

OMG @Wonderpants3 that is amazing!!! So happy for you! ❤️

I’m currently 10dpo and had a bfn this morning 🙄

So I’ve done the housework, put the chilli in the slow cooker for later, lit the fire and am curled up in front of it with my kindle and hot cup of tea.

@DaisyJones6 youre not out until AF

Congratulations @Wonderpants3 thats amazing!

@DaisyJones6 I never test positive until about day 13/14 so you've still time 🤞

Huge congratulations @Wonderpants3!! Cracking line

Love seeing people get their bfp, it's so exciting

@Wonderpants3 amazing, massive congratulations. This is such lovely news!!

@Wonderpants3

Did you have an inkling that you were pregnant? I saw you had some cramping the other day, did you have any other signs?

@Wonderpants3 congratulations amazing news🥰

Hey everyone,

I hope you don’t mind me joining this thread.

I’m in my TWW trying to conceive baby number 2. I had a CP last cycle 😔 but we have tried again hoping we might be lucky 🍀 I’m currently 9dpo and had a bfn today. Losing hope a bit but trying to be positive!

Sending baby dust to everyone! ✨

3dpo and this is dragging ! I’m massively symptom spotting even though I know I shouldn’t. I’m going to drive myself insane. I didn’t have any pregnancy symptoms until I missed my period with my first and even then I just thought my period was on its way as the symptoms were so similar so I really should know better!!

@Wonderpants3 That's a fantastic line for 8DPO wow! Congratulations!! 🥳

@Sarah452

I'm the same, I'm 5dpo today but have been constantly symptom spotting the last few days even though implantation wouldn't have even happened. I'm definitely setting myself up a for a huge disappointment if I get a bfn

Congrats @Wonderpants3 , wish you a very healthy and happy pregnancy.

I think I see a shadow today on easyhome (dpo 9), but I think I made it up entirely 🙈 I have some symptoms but they're so subtle. I definitely had cycles with more symptoms and af showing up. I'll wait to retest tomorrow morning with frer.

Told myself I wouldn't test but caved and tried an LH out of curiosity. With my first it was 0.63 high and I got a positive test. This morning it's 0.95 and high 😬 I know it could be nothing. Shouldn't have caved

Huge congrats @Wonderpants3 !

@TrainIsMoving good luck tomorrow!

I had a vivid dream last night of a positive test result, so woke up and took 2 different brand tests at 8dpo (i know!!!) Honestly I had no idea ttc would become so overwhelming. I feel like each day I'm getting closer to some sort of breakdown. I test way too early and then spend 10 minites finding the right light to see any kind of line!!!! I do actually see something very faint but could easily be the evap line. Ugh.

@Kofifi I feel the same and I’m only on my first cycle, I’ve got no idea how I’m going to keep sane for however long this takes 🤣 I’m 10 DPO today, still got very light pink CM at times so I’m feeling AF is en route. I’m going to test later though because I can’t resist waiting any longer!
