3DPO...TWW buddies?

[Hann1905]

Hi ladies
Just thought I'd start a thread to see if anyone else is 3DPO and wanted to be TWW budies
This is my first cycle trying for #2 x

Yep think I’m the same but will probs test end of next week earliest. TOTM due 2nd Feb

Hi everyone, I had my positive ovulation test today so will be a few days before but starting my ttw from Saturday. Cycle 2 ttc no. 3. I really have tried to be less obsessive than I was the last two times we were ttc! But I have failed.

I always used first response as I wanted to know as soon as possible, but I keep reading that they’ve changed them
slightly and now they are not as sensitive they claim to be, so I’ve gone for the boots early detection test 10mlu. Cheaper also! Then I also bought 20 easy at home 10mlu ones and have a blue digital (25mlu) from the first month which will be saved until I actually get a positive on another test.

@Applesandcake - sounds like we ovulated around same time, I DTD sat eve and Monday eve (only he did pull out method on Monday) as not actively TTC - cramping, lower back pain, full feeling down there kinda thing which I usually get at AF - don’t usually notice when ovulating but this time feels different 🤔 when are you going to do first test? I’m thinking next Friday.

Hi ladies. I'm cycle #2 for baby #1. I just got my peak tonight so I'll be joining you in the TWW on Saturday at 1DPO. Hoping we see lots of bfps ❤️

I can't get first response tests where I am so I use the boots early response which seem to have good reviews.

@Bb542 - sorry to ask but what day of your cycle are you in and also is it likely that I could get pregnant if I say ovulated past 3 days but DTD sat eve (13th). I’m guessing as sperm can live up to 5 days my chances are still fairly good. Also do you get O symptoms? I have had cramping, Lower back and in pelvic region but also constipation which I usually only get few days before AF, now wondering if this is actually ovulation. I’m confused 😐

I'm CD17. Are you using ovulation strips to roughly know when exactly you ovulated? If you ovulated Monday or Tuesday then you could be in with a good chance. However last month we did all the right things and it didn't work out so who knows. I don't normally get ovulation pain that I notice. I have some mild pressure in my lower abdomen today though. Not sure if it's connected to ovulation.

@Bb542 - CD17 also - I don’t use ovulation strips as me and OH where not actively TTC - we just wasn’t careful DTD Sat Eve… but both agreed if it happens it happens. I don’t usually notice ovulation either but since Tuesday I’ve had these cramps and like pulling/tugging feelings and constipation… so hard to explain. But it feels like dull aches in pelvic area and also lower back/bum so honestly I think I’m just going to take a test next Friday and see what happens.

I don’t know exactly when I ovulated but I think I’m 6/7dpo. I have loads of tests so I thought why not. I know it won’t show anything till EARLIEST 8dpo. Tell me why I’ve convinced myself I see a squinter 😂

@Yellofello - I’m so sorry I can’t see anything but it is far too early. Give it another 3 days then you may get a result :) Good luck 🤞

Look what's arrived today 😍 must resist the pressure to start testing daily now! Lucky they arrived half way through the day and I've drunk quite a bit of water, otherwise I'd be tempted 😂

@Yellofello I don't think I can see anything yet, although it is super early!

How is everyone feeling today? I had some sharp cramps last night, and I've been feeling really irritable today (not sure if that's hormone related or food shopping with a toddler related though 🤣). It's so hard not to symptom spot!

I’m trying to avoid testing as tests are so expensive but it’s hard isn’t it? My period is due next Thursday so I think I could test Sunday (6 days early) but I don’t want to risk wasting a test. My cycles can vary in length so it’s hard to know what to do

What’s the earliest anyone has tested positiv?

@Moominmamato3 tests have gone so expensive! The easy at home were quite good value for 20 though!

@Nic2908 with my first I had a negative test at 10DPO and then a positive at 11DPO.

I had an incredibly faint line on a first response early test at 8dpo with my son and 9dpo with my daughter. I had a miscarriage after an unplanned pregnancy in the spring and did not get a positive until 13dpo, but I wasn’t using as sensitive tests and also I wonder if the fact it took that long compared to my others might have been linked to the fact I then went on to miscarriage a few days later.

Hi all can I join too? Had my static smiley on Sunday morning and DTD sat and Sunday. Period due next Saturday.

I've seen a few people describing fullness/pressure in pelvis, almost like a constant full bladder. Slight nausea too that almost feels like nervous tummy. Are these common symptoms of pregnancy for those who have been pregnant before ?

@onethingonly - I’m due around 2nd Feb and think ovulated Monday/Tuesday - DTD Sat eve … since Tuesday I’ve had fullness cramping, constipation (only get this when AF is due) so I’m wondering if ovulation or the start of a pregnancy.

Starting the TWW tomorrow. Got my peak yesterday. LH has dropped right back down to 0.18 today. Now the waiting game begins.

How's everyone today?

Perfectly timed tww buddies this time around! And both on our second cycle 😎

As expected, we didn’t dtd tonight as actually neither of us were well enough. I feel blooming awful! Would have to for me to miss a chance to dtd on ovulation day! But as I said, I’m trying to be relaxed and know it’ll happen when it happens. So ttw starts tomorrow.

@Applesandcake yay I'm so happy we're in the exact same day of our cycle. Imagine if both of us were lucky enough to become pregnant! We'd have a similar due date 🥹
So sorry you're sick 💔 I'd say you DTD plenty and I think now it's time to just sit back and let things happen whatever way they're meant to. We DTD Sunday, Monday and Thursday so we'll see if it was enough 🤔

That would be amazing 🤩 I’m already symptom spotting despite saying I absolutely wouldn’t and instead it was literally O day that I started! It’s only because it’s a very different symptom for me. My nipples were/are absolute agony and it’s excruciating breastfeeding my second born. I know this is a common ovulation symptom but it’s one I don’t have. I’ve done seed cycling this month, so wonder if that’s done something to my hormones which have meant I have more progesterone at this time this cycle and therefore am hurting but OUCH!

Ooh interesting. You never know. And it's so hard not to symptom spot. I've 0 symptoms but that's fine at only 1dpo. Very glad I'll be in work next week to distract myself 😄

After saying I was avoiding testing I caved this morning 🤦‍♀️ it was negative as expected and now feel silly for wasting the test!

I’m 7dpo today and so desperate to test

@Nic2908 im 7dpo too and just couldn’t help myself

Don't worry girls. 7dpo is too early so still plenty of hope 🥰
