Hey ladies 👋🥰 ,

I thought I would start a thread for anyone wanting to join me in my tww 🎊.

I am currently 1dpo I have quite a long cycle usually irregular due to PCOS but they seem to have semi regulated themselves and ive ovulated for the first time in years, AF due the 18th of April, same day it was due with my DD in 2013! Found out I was pregnant the day after it was due 🥳, hoping this is history repeating itself as this has been a long ttc journey 😪.

What dpo is everyone? I thought we could share symptoms while we wait. I am terrible for symptom spotting 😂

Wishing you all lots of baby dust 🥰

Just wondering...I woke up at 5am with strong cramping/ pains on lower left (the same side I had ovulation cramps on), should I worry about an ectopic? Only lasted a few minutes then stopped and no bleeding today or anything but CM is watery again. I'm only 5 dpo so still early.

Wishing I'd paid more attention to my body last month so I know if this is normal for me 😅

MadeWithL0ve · 07/04/2024 12:18

No I wouldn't worry at all about an ectopic it could just be getting ready for implantation 5dpo is still early

Hi, I had an ectopic in January and although it’s different for everyone, my symptoms started around week 4 of pregnancy. Cramping and on/off bleeding. I really wouldn’t worry so early on. You can’t feel the symptoms of an ectopic (if you get any) so early on. It could be implantation/AF or anything. Try not to worry x

Kohel · 07/04/2024 14:21

Can anyone shed any light? I definitely ovulated around CD10-12 as had EWCM. I continued testing with OPKs (didn’t log some of these) but all negative. Today it’s still negative but seems to have massively increased and got darker? My period is due in 8 days. We made sure we had sex CD9, 10, 11 and 12. Any advice appreciated! 💕

I agree I also had an ectopic I was just over 5 weeks and I had horrendous pain in my left ovary, I also had a pain in my shoulder tip with slight bleeding

Thank you for your help. In hindsight I realise that was a really sensitive question to ask on this thread. I'm really sorry for that and for your losses xx

Aw no honestly don't say sorry at all I would rather you ask any questions if you have even the slightest bit of concern, I'm not a medical professional but I would give my best advice I can

@Hopethisendswell i don’t think you were insensitive in the slightest. I think we can all agree we are all here to support each other. Everyone’s journey is different xx

Hopethisendswell · 07/04/2024 18:35

You are both so sweet 💕

Hopethisendswell · 07/04/2024 18:49

I caved and picked up some cheapie tests and tested, obviously a BFN! Will likely test most days so I can at least get through a day without them calling to me from the bathroom cabinet and give myself some sanity 🙃

I just ugly cried at the end of the Barbie film when it talked about daughters and mothers when she stood in the white room with Ruth Handler...please tell me that's normal and I'm not cracking under the pressure 😅

@MadeWithL0ve aww it's hard not to symptoms spot tbh! Are you going to test soon or wait it out? You have some will power! :) fingers crossed for you!

No, not tried those - but would live to hear your review if you try them.

Feeling rubbish today too. Bloated and exhausted, couldn't do any laying on my tummy for pilates this morning 😑 I know it's in my head, but I normally feel on top of the world at this point in my cycle.

Hope that it means there's a BFP waiting for you @MadeWithL0ve xx
