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?

@TrainIsMoving thank you so much x

Hi all - hoping I can join too as relatively new to this... 2nd month tracking ovulation but I haven't had a positive yet even though did on CD13 last cycle.. now on CD16 but nothing...and I'm fairly regular - this normal?! I'm second guessing everything, worried I'm not ovulating this cycle!

Do you guys think I'm safe to take a digital with this line? My OH refuses to believe I'm pregnant and says I'm being silly because I've not even missed my period. Im 12dpo tomorrow

Thanks guys! Glad to know I'm not seeing things! Will test again tomorrow morning and update.

@siobhanmt247 looks pregnant to me! I would try a one with pink dye or digital to be 100% sure.

@Kofifi thank you. I already have two positive pink ones but don't want to do a digital if these don't look strong enough

@Kofifi oooohhhh that’s definitely it babe congratulations! No line eyes there 😍 love seeing all these positives !

i don’t think iv conceived this month period in 8 days and no symptoms and I just don’t feel pregnant not very confident at all haha just feel like meh if that makes sense 🤦🏻‍♀️

@MrsP20202 you might surprise yourself... X

2 days longer, I'm just hoping this is for real and I get a peak in the next few days.

Can I please join? Been lurking a few days so have enjoyed seeing all the BFPs!
We are TTC #2. Been trying since about March last year. Had a MC at around 9 weeks in November so this is our first cycle since then. I think I'm about 7dpo no symptom spotting yet as have kept myself busy. It's normally this second week of TWW that my sanity tends to disappear though 😩 and as I'm laid in bed typing this I'm thinking my boobs are quite sore.
I'm desperate for this to be our month 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 here's hoping it is for everyone else still in the mix too ✨✨

Congrats @siobhanmt247 and @Kofifi - definitely lines there!

@Ella31 fingers crossed for you that your peak is coming soon then!

@MrsP20202 you're not our til AF...so many girls say they just feel off rather than classic symptoms so you never know!

Welcome @Sandwichesandwine! Will keep everything crossed for you!

I can’t believe all of these bfp’s!!! So wonderful to see, it really is!!

@Ella31 If your period was longer then I’m guessing it could be about right that your beginning your fertile phase?

I started feeling nauseous yesterday, not throw up nausea, but pregnancy type just lingering. Convinced myself I was pregnant all day, happily stripping wallpaper etc.

Got in the loo this morning complete with my little cup and test. Caught my pee, got the test out and popped it in said pee, put it aside and then got the loo paper and wiped - blood. CD1.

Why all of the symptoms? It’s just so cruel isn’t it.

This will have been our third cycle. I know that’s nothing really, but I have always caught soon before. I’m 43 now and maybe it’s just not going to happen again 😓

@DaisyJones6 keep the hope going. I had 3 bfn and a chemical cycles before I conceived my twins on the fifth.

Gave in a did a test 13dpo. I was busy getting kids ready while hiding a test in the bathroom 🤫 Just a cheapie so 5mins wait time, checked after 4 and thought I might see the faintest of lines told myself it line eyes and binned it. Couldn't help myself checked it again and there is a clear obvious line but it was more like 7mins past.
I know the answer is retest tomorrow and just bloody wait with it but what do you all think ? I know you should read it after the allocated time but do they mean the exact and nothing over ?

Kicking myself for not putting a timer on so I felt more sure either way 🙃

I'm sorry @DaisyJones6 , the body is so cruel to us.

I managed to find an old cheapy test yesterday and got another positive. Then took another frer this morning and although there is a line, if anything its lighter than yesterday. Don't know if i should be worrying.

@DaisyJones6 so sorry to hear 😢 Why does AF always wait until the moment you've peed on the stick?!

@siobhanmt247 congrats! if it helps i did my digital at 17dpo so the day after i got my positive! and it come up xx

Sorry to hear this @DaisyJones6 😢

@DaisyJones6 im so sorry it didn’t happen for you this month! our bodies can be so cruel playing tricks on us! fingers crossed it happens soon xx

@Kofifi i wouldn’t worry about the line being lighter right now, maybe test in a day or two? its so hard isn’t it cus we test and get our positives and then put ourselves thru more worry for continuing to test! x

@DaisyJones6 I’m so sorry 😟

@MrsP20202 i had zero symptoms with my first, even went to a health check a few days before I found I was pregnant and when they asked if there was any chance I could be pregnant I said no 🤦‍♀️

@Daisychain27 i wanted to come back to you on the short luteal phase. So I was OPK this month and confirmed ovulation (also by lots of EWCM) on 3rd/4th Jan, my period is due 11th Jan.. so basically a 7/8 day luteal.

i went back and looked at when I was pregnant before, baby was a surprise however I’ve got the dates of when we dtd from an old WhatsApp (was messaging OH at the time we found out trying to work out when we conceived 😂) I also had a dating scan done when I thought I was 6 weeks pregnant but they dated me at 4 weeks 4 days. Long and short when I cross reference the two I must have conceived around the 3/4rd of the month (weirdly pre pregnancy my period always came on the 11th too) so that basically works out as a 7/8 day luteal. She’s now almost 2 😂

Ladies back again for advise, so now I've started spotting pinkish blood.

So quick recap. Had emergency section 9 weeks ago. Opk's said I ovulated on the 26th December, dtd but got my period last Thursday, bleeding stopped 3 days ago, got a flashing smiley on clearblue opk yesterday and then today I start spotting pink blood and I've cramps. I'm so confused. Took a pregnancy test and of course its blank but I've no idea what's going on.

Hello! Jumping in on the hype here ☺️ 1st month TTC (first time!) this waiting game is sooo difficult! 6 days before due on.. when are you all holding off until to test? I’ve taken one this morning and negative but hoping for the best! Wishing you all lots of luck! ✨

@Kofifi that is definitely a line!! And congrats to @siobhanmt247 too 🥰

Thanks so much @Ella31 and @Sarah452 for your comments on luteal phase length, really appreciate you sharing your stories! So comforting to hear of people who have conceived with similar phase lengths. Google is so unhelpful as it’s full of websites saying that phases below 12,11,10 DPO etc are “worrying” but clearly it’s absolutely fine! I’m still a bit worried about the amount of spotting I seem to have in the run up to AF (can be anything from 1-6/7 days!) but my BBT seems to be staying up throughout, so I’m feeling far more positive now :)

I hope you don’t mind me staying on this thread, my O day is predicted to be end of January so I’m still technically TTC this month 🙊

Baby dust to everyone! 🥰

@Daisychain27 glad you are staying, so am I and hopefully next month is our month.

I'm having a rough day today. I've light pink spotting yesterday 4 days after my period, 9 weeks postpartum, worried there's something wrong with me. The other part of me is saying this anxiety from my loss.
