Hello. I'm in the dreaded TWW, symptom spotting, testing and all 😂

I had two huge follicles on CD10 after letrozole CD2-6, and triggered that day. Timed intercourse (FUN!) on day of trigger and the day after. Multiple losses, one success before these losses. Waiting and hoping but also scared 😟 tough couple of years....

Now waiting. Very little symptoms.
Anyone wants to wait with me? Or share stories?

Hi all

I’m just wondering if any of you could give me some advice, this is my first month TTC and tracking ovulation. I had a peak 23rd April and DTD everyday until 27th just to be sure. But then had another peak and was still wet 30th April evening, so had assumed the first time my body tried to ovulate it didnt work and so was trying again and assumed I would ovulate the following day however by lunch time the next day I was completely dry and my cervix had dropped so I’m wondering how could that have happened right around the time opk suggested I was ovulating?
I’ve read sometimes LH can peak around implantation as well but not sure how likely that is. Very confused this month already lol and also worried as if I did ovulate after that second peak we had stopped DTD on 27th so it’s likely we have missed it

Hey everyone can I join too 🙋‍♀️

Im currently 5 or 6 dpo, first cycle of TTC after we had to have a TFMR with our first pregnancy (baby boy) in March.

We fell by accident really with our first, but made us realise how desperate we are to
be parents. So this is my first cycle tracking with ovulation sticks so see how we go!

Noticed the last 2 days that I’ve needed the toilet alllll the time! I’ve also been waking up about 3am and then can’t get back to sleep at all. But I know that it’s too early for any symptoms yet so trying not to ready into it too much 😬😬

Currently cycle day 22 and AF is due 08th May!

Hi hope your well!

how are you finding it all with tracking etc? I have found it’s really consuming me, even at work I can’t concentrate on anything else so my focus next month is really going to be trying to relax and listen to my body.

have you had much discharge changes or anything? How accurate was tracking for you? I had my peak at 23rd April but randomly on 30th April had another little spike, wasn’t as high as the peak but made me think I’ve missed ovulation this month. Ahhh who knew there was so much to trying for a baby lol

jt130593 · 02/05/2024 08:40

@Peachygal27 god tracking is an absolute minefield isn’t it 🥲 definitely found it very stressful! I’ve tried to stay relaxed about it but it just hasn’t happened haha.

I was just using the clear blue advanced one where you get the smiley face as I wanted something easy 😂 I had 8 consecutive high fertility readings, and then 2 peak readings. I did have egg white discharge for about 4 days before my peak reading!

I got my first peak on cycle day 16, and looking back we actually conceived our first on cycle day 16 so that must be around my day!

Now just trying not to symptom spot 😂 it’s tough because we fell by surprise the first time round I didn’t really make note of any symptoms or anything I was feeling in this middle bit! I just remember that I was finding it difficult to sleep. And then a few days before my period was due I hysterically cried for about an hour over something really stupid and thought my PMS was just really bad, and I just had a general “weird” feeling but couldn’t explain it to anyone. Even though id never been pregnant before I was repeatedly telling my partner that I was adamant I was pregnant 😂

Chaz693 · 02/05/2024 09:49

I hate line eyes lol! I've convinced myself there is the faintest line in history on my test. I keep having to tell myself it's negative and to let it go. I know by tonight I'll end up taking another test and just be disappointed or will see the line that isn't there. Kinda hoping AF turns up on time so I can put myself out of this am I or aren't I stage! X

Do you know I hear of so many people who say even before symptoms they just knew they were pregnant!! Isn’t that crazy how the body works lol

so are you taking your first peak as ovulation? I’m confused about mine as the second peak wasn’t even a peak it was just high and I was dry the next morning where as was very wet the days leading up to the peak. I’ve no idea when I ovulated to be honest lol

when are you going to test? I hope this is positive for you this month!

Do you have a picture?

Chaz693 · 02/05/2024 09:54

@Peachygal27 you can barely see it with your bare eyes. And I'm pretty sure if I showed anyone else they'd say I was going crazy and negative. I always say if I can't be seen in a photo then it's not really there. If it turns out to be something I'll know by Saturday. X

jt130593 · 02/05/2024 10:00

@Peachygal27 yeah I absolutely knew, I couldn’t explain the feeling to you I just felt weird for days and kept saying to my partner I’m pregnant, and he was like nahhhh your not your just a few days late on your period. But I was right 😂

Ermmm well I don’t 100% know when I actually ovulated as I don’t track temp, but I’m guessing that it was between cycle day 16-18!

It’s an absolute minefield there’s so much of it I don’t really understand I’m just kind of guessing. Did you dtd around both your peaks just to cover them?

I’m going to try and not test until AF is late, otherwise I’ll just make myself miserable! When are you due on?

@Chaz693 how many days dpo are you?

Chaz693 · 02/05/2024 10:03

I was the same with my pregnancy in January for about a week after I just had this feeling and knew I was pregnant. When that test came up positive I was just like I knew it. But my next pregnancy in March I was convinced that I wasn't so was so shocked when I got a positive.

I'm 10dpo today I believe. I'm due AF Saturday so will probably test tomorrow and unless it's a bit more clearly positive then I'll expect AF to turn up by Saturday morning. X

Chaz693 · 02/05/2024 14:58

I'm addicted to peeing on sticks at this point. Just took another I can I see the faint line again! But can not for the life of me get the camera to pick it up! I'm hoping by tomorrow morning it will be a bit clearer! Now I'm terrified of being disappointed x

jt130593 · 02/05/2024 15:07

Thinking I may be out this month 😢 this afternoon I’ve had a headache similar to that I normally get the day before my period, and I’ve also had mild cramping.

Seems to be a bit early given my periods 6 days away but wondering if my cycle and symptoms are just going to be a different after I’ve had my TFMR 🤷‍♀️

Oh well, onto the next month I guess!

fingers crossed it stays away for you!

I don’t know what my body is doing because my cervix has dropped and feels firm, I’m completely dry and I had a positive test 2 days ago, followed by yesterday very low results and now today the peak is even higher than two days ago even though I’ve dried up and cervix dropped

suppose all we can do is wait. I’ll test Saturday as that would be 10dpo if I ovulated the first time I peaked

Chaz693 · 02/05/2024 20:29

So either I have gone crazy or this is the start of a positive. Going to test in the morning in the hopes that this turns into something. If not I'll probably just wait for af to arrive on Saturday. X

I think I can see a hint of a line. Hard to tell but you’ll definitely get a better result this morning if you are pregnant 🤞 x
