Anyone else started the TWW?

[amichel]

The tww feels like forever! I'm hoping to find cycle buddies! Looking forward to symptom spotting, testing and everything else!😅

I'm eager to get home at 3pm and test!😅

I don't think I drink enough which isn't good! I had heavy pressure for the past few days and really noticed it when I sat down quickly.

Ooooo when do you think you'll test?😅

Rushed home just to see another negative test. Hopefully a line appears soon😅

@amichel ooh not long to go then!

I usually drink quite a lot and can hold going the loo to pee usually for about 4 hrs, I’m not even drinking much today and still going every 30 mins at least.
I’ve got some first response but think it’ll be silly using them at 6dpo, I might just go and grab some cheapies to see what they do

@Samthenanny
It's still early days so I'm probably being slightly dramatic😅

That's a big change from the norm then! How you feeling today? Any other signs?

I got 40 easy@home tests for about £7-£8. I haven't got a clue how sensitive they, so I could be waiting until AF is due to see anything x

@amichel we crossed post earlier the little spotting you had looks promising, so it’s a positive sign.

last time I tested positive at 9dpo so I might try Friday morning, I’ll be 8dpo then, I think.
I tasted blood earlier for a about 5-10 mins and I’m having pulling, pinching around hips and belly button

@Samthenanny so we did! Just keep reminding myself 9 days until the suspected due date isn't really that far away😅

I've read that a pulling feeling around the belly button can be a sign and it's quite common isn't it? Are your gums bleeding or was it more of a bloody metallic taste?x

@Marie1990x
I can't help but think the same!😅
I'll keep testing daily and only 9 days until AF is due😂x

@amichel I think I’d be testing every time I needed a wee 🤣. Hopefully it turns into a BFP, got everything crossed.

I’m out on Saturday at a brunch so if I test bfn up until then I’ll take it as that and indulge in all the Prosecco and cocktails 😂. I’ll be 10dpo so surely it would be pretty accurate?

8dpo and spotting right on schedule 😩 AF is round the corner. Onto cycle 4 we go...

@Marie1990x
Aw thanks! I'm hoping the best for all of us!✨
I think that's a good reason to let your hair down and have some fun! It seems so common that women don't get their bfp until AF is due x

@koalabearboombox
Oh I'm sorry to hear that! I'm wishing you all the best for cycle #4✨

Hi, my period is due on Saturday. Did this test this afternoon. Is this evap or faint positive? The line is thin but definitely blue not grey like it looks in the photo and is solid but thin. Sorry for terrible photography!

@AnonAnom940
Welcome!
I hope it's the start of your BFP!
I've only used 1 clear blue whilst TTC and it must have been an evap line or a faulty test. I'll attach the picture.
Sorry I can't be of much help x

Annoyingly I’d say that’s an evap. I’ve had quite a few like that from clearblue. Hopefully it develops into a BFP 🤞🏻

How's everyone feeling this morning?

I need to stop with the symptom spotting! 😂 even feel like oh I don't have these symptoms before my normal periods.. mind games!

I feel like rubbish. This nausea is getting to me so bad this time. I got to work and had to rush to the loo and actually threw up which isn’t like me. It’s definitely not pregnancy symptom, as far too early and I had a BFN. I think the hormones are just ridiculous this time.

How are you? Have you testing this morning?

@26dX I know the feeling! I wish I had recorded symptoms during the previous cycles as my memory is horrendous😂

@Marie1990x I would have said that's an obvious sign, but it's annoying it's paired with a bfn. I think we're super sensitive to every feeling at the moment. Stress can do funny things to us can't it?

Another bfn this morning. Bleeding/spotting had gone by last night. I would love to hold off until next Thursday to test as that would be a day before AF, but it's so hard to wait!

Each day I'm just preparing myself for AF so I won't be surprised if it comes x

Mine was definitely an evap line. Did another test this morning and was negative. So annoying but keep trying!

@AnonAnom940
Sorry to hear that! It's so disheartening. I had convinced myself the clear blue was a bfp, but everyone I spoke to said it most likely wasn't.
Keep us updated!x

@amichel how are you feeling?
The frequent weeing continued throughout the eve and into the night with bad cramps and this morning I’ve had the smallest amount of pink when wiping so I’m hoping it’s implantation.
I’ve roughly worked out when 12 weeks would be and it’d by my little boys 2nd birthday 🤣
going to test in the morning

how’s everyone else feeling?

Yeah it’s 100% not pregnancy related. Seems to have calmed down a bit now so hopefully just a blip.

Oh that’s so annoying, I was expecting to see a BFP from you today!

Was the bleeding/spotting constant?

@Samthenanny ahhhh exciting! Hopefully you get a BFP soon!

@AnonAnom940 what dpo are you? Hopefully the bfn was wrong and the other a true faint BFP 🤞🏻

@Samthenanny I don't have any symptoms at the moment. Bloating has gone, haven't had any cramps this morning, spotting has cleared so I'm just hoping for a bfp any day now😅

I hope it's implant bleeding!🤞🏼I've read it could take 3-7 days for HCG to be detectable from implant bleeding which would take me right up to AF due date.

Aw that's lovely! I've worked out 6 weeks from now for an early scan would be my partners birthday😅x
