@Rosyposy26 mines due 23rd too! Also 6dpo tomorrow. I have two early detection tests unopened in my bedside drawer. I’m going to try and hold out until I’m due 😬(famous last words 😂) it’s so tempting when there are tests in the house!!!

PandaOrLion · 13/03/2024 19:34

I’m going to test first on Sunday I think. I’ve got one test so I’m not sure whether to buy more or just wait!

Only 4dpo and period due on 22nd March. I told myself I would wait until period is late to test but I don't know if I'll manage to keep strong with all these tests laying around GrinBlush

Can I join? 👋 Currently first cycle ttc #1. Apparently ovulated 10/3 and af due 22/3. Did not expect to find tww so hard! Literally can't stop symptom checking and already so impatient to test 😩 cannot see me holding out until next Friday before I crack! Going to try and leave it a week 🤞good luck to everyone testing before then!

Good luck! This is my 6th cycle ttc so I'm used to seeing BFN tests but it never gets easier. I hope you get a one hit wonder! Star

Thank you! Looks like we are both due on the same date, fingers crossed no af for you and this is your month for bfp!

Choc29 · 13/03/2024 21:27

I'm 4dpo. The tww is killing me!! My AF was a week late last month so I'm not entirely sure when it will come this month. Premom app says I can test next Thursday and predicted AF next weekend. Xx

jellyfish2 · 13/03/2024 21:46

1 DPO for me 🙈 it's going to be a long wait!

I caved and did one but of course it was a negative. I do feel very emotional tonight trying not to get hopes up.

mamataylor · 13/03/2024 22:28

@Rosyposy26 find comfort in the fact that it’s way too early to see a positive even if you are pregnant! Try and hold out a bit longer if you can. I think testing early doesn’t help us at all as we feel even worse when we see a negative even though we know it’s too early!

Rosyposy26 · 13/03/2024 22:33

@mamataylor I know I am going to wait until Sunday now at least.

Vim22 · 14/03/2024 08:06

5 dpo, cramping all night and literally exhausted even though I slept 9 hours. Can barely get out of bed. I'm always tired during luteal phase but this is on another level...

But I also have a sore throat so it's probably just the beginning of a cold because I know 5dpo is too early.

TTC makes you crazy with symptom spotting. Every month before ovulation I tell myself I won't do it this time and sure enough, here we go! Grin

ToeBeans24 · 14/03/2024 12:14

8dpo and another bfn. Trying to stay positive. Know I implanted later than this in my 2 pregnancies (losses). But still! Was convinced cramps on 6DPO was implantation but couldn’t have been as I’d have a faint positive by now surely

elarcoiris · 14/03/2024 12:23

@ToeBeans24 8dpo is still very early! I think the earliest I’ve ever got a faint positive is 9dpo, so would say you’re definitely not out yet!

PandaOrLion · 14/03/2024 22:12

I remember testing positive with DS and realising I was 4wk5 which feels very late. Not sure I can wait till oeriod
is due this time, let alone over 4weeks 😂

I've not noticed any symptoms today and starting to convince myself it's not going to happen this month. Might start testing tomorrow on cheapies as something to do!

Vim22 · 15/03/2024 07:28

For anyone who keeps track of their bbt, has anyone ever had a cycle where temperatures post ovulation stay barely above cover line? Mine would usually have sky rocketed by now and I would also normally get sore breasts but this time around, nothing.

My app has confirmed ovulation because I did have a temp shift post ovulation (along with other signs) but just not as extreme as usual.

CurlyWurly1991 · 15/03/2024 07:31

@Vim22 Ive had that before with fertility friend and in the end turned out not to have ovulated yet. My cycles can be a bit wacky at the best of times but that was a bit of a crappy cycle as I got past 14,18,22 dpo with negative tests and was confused. But later my temp did shift so I ovulated in the end like cd 46. Not saying this is what has happened for you though, fertility friend says the temp increase can be as little as 0.1 degrees between pre and post ovulation.

deliwoman1 · 15/03/2024 07:34

Morning all!

These days, I'm completely sane until around 7-8 dpo. And with work and running around after a toddler, I find it easy not to overthink it. But after 8dpo it's like an alarm goes off inside me and the temptation to test is soooo strong. I usually cave!

I'm 6dpo today, and while I don't usually symptom spot either (because I've been proven wrong so many times before!), I've woken up feeling so dizzy. It's like I've just stepped off a waltzer. I can't remember if I've ever had this as a pregnancy symptom before though! I did have a bit of mild discomfort in my uterus in the middle of the night, but nothing like a cramp and 5dpo is probably too early for implantation. It's weird!

How's everyone else?

Vim22 · 15/03/2024 07:35

@CurlyWurly1991 I swear our bodies play tricks on us sometimes when TTC. Makes the whole thing so much harder. I definitely ovulated though because I also use fertility awareness method and check a few other things (cervical mucus, cervical position and positive opk). It just feels like a different cycle this time around. Maybe my hormones are just a bit out of whack.

ToeBeans24 · 15/03/2024 09:12

Good luck to everyone started to test. I got another bfn at 9DPO today. Feeling sad. Don’t think it’s my month 😔

elarcoiris · 15/03/2024 10:22

I’m getting quite bad heartburn, even if I’ve only had something small to eat/drink, which is something that only usually happens when I’m pregnant. But I’m also on supplementary progesterone and only 7dpo so trying to tell myself it’s probably just the progesterone and not get my hopes up. Let’s see if I can hold out until Monday to test… 😬

bulletproofcoffee · 15/03/2024 10:43

Joining! Got a static smiley yesterday AM - luckily BD Wednesday eve and yesterday. Will continue and hope to join your 2ww. Will be testing at 10 dpo 25th/26th! This is my 3rd cycle of trying "properly" with tests and BBT. 5th cycle overall, First time TTC, 33 yo.

Vim22 · 15/03/2024 14:26

@bulletproofcoffee good luck! Will be testing around 25th/26th as well which is when my period is due. Unless period starts before. Fingers crossed. 6th cycle trying here!

LilPearl · 15/03/2024 17:17

I bought myself my first pack of frers and when they arrived this afternoon I was just too tempted. I'm deffo no more than 7dpo and potentially even 6 and although I convinced myself there was a hint of a line I need to be realistic here!!
Another frer for Sunday when I'm 8 or 9, hopefully I can last til then without testing again.
Anyone had any luck yet? I feel excited this month rather than my usual anxious and cranky!
