TWW

Hello! Anyone just starting their TWW? There's a couple of other TWW threads going but it feels like they're a bit older now with people testing already. I'm 2DPO - anyone else early on?!

2dpo today too!! Every day is feeling super long. How are you feeling?

Blue2020 · 07/07/2024 20:09

I’m 4dpo today. Yes it feels like it’s going so slowly.

Yay! Glad to have someone in the same boat. I am feeling ok! This is my second and I am definitely more relaxed this time and less desperate to be pregnant. It's also only our second cycle of trying. (I'm sure I'd become more desperate in a few months.) I had weird LH results this month though with two peaks, one on CD19 and the next the following day. So I'm going based on the first peak which is what the Premom app is saying and hoping for the best!

How about you?

I've been ttc on and off for 6 years so I'll hold out until after 14dpo if period doesn't show. Had a failed ivf round in March but want to forget all the difficulties and treat this month as a fresh, feeling the excitement of it all and the wondering of the ttw again. My cycle is very messed up since the ivf round, having a 50 day cycle, then a 40 day cycle. If I've tracked ovulation correctly then this cycle will be 30 days. Getting back to normal so I'm feeling super happy about that!

Welcome @Blue2020 ! Is this your first baby? When are you going to test?

I have a ds who is 15 months old. So just started ttc again for a second baby. I think I will wait until 13/14dpo when AF is due. Only because I get quite down about a negative test. I think it’s because I get my hopes up just before the test.

When are you going to test?

Nic2908 · 07/07/2024 22:31

I have a three year old. Journey to my second hasn’t been so seamless. We lost a little girl at 16 weeks in March 2023 and then in this March I lost a baby at 12 weeks. First month trying since our last miscarriage. In all three pregnancies we have been lucky to catch in the first month so I know I’m going to be gutted if it’s not as easy this time.

I am 5 dpo. Does anyone plan to do a 7 dpo progesterone blood test to confirm ovulation?

Hello! I’m 1dpo following a CP last cycle, Im TTC for #2. Ahhh I hate the TWW!!! Trying to promise myself I won’t test until AF is due but not sure I have the willpower. Sending lots of luck to you all!

I'm so sorry it's been so tough for you @May100 but your attitude is great. Every cycle is a new one and getting it back down to 30 days is a really good step! Sending you all the luck.

@Blue2020 I have 14 month old so we're not too dissimilar! I'm far too impatient to wait so I'll be testing at 9DPO next Sunday. So just got to get through this week for me! Sending you lots of luck 🤞 how are you feeling?

I'm so sorry @Nic2908 that sounds absolutely awful. I've got everything crossed for you. When will you be testing?

So sorry to hear about your CP! Good luck for this cycle 🤞🤞 I definitely don't have the willpower to wait but it works better for lots of people!

Ah good luck. Technically I should have a 14 month old but he came 5 weeks early.

I think my AF should in theory arrive on Tuesday/Wednesday next week so we are close too. I’m now 5dpo and it feels like it’s going so slowly. We also only managed to dtd once that would count, the night before ovulation. So I’m hoping but we didn’t have a chance to give it the best shot like with ds when we dtd a few times in the window.

How are you feeling?

imy · 08/07/2024 15:28

@Blue2020 aw my daughter was a couple of weeks early. I was relieved because I was so worried about getting really overdue and uncomfortable, being induced etc! I hope my next one follows suit!

It sounds like even though you only did it once, it was perfectly timed. I thought we'd be out this month as my husband was away for work from sun-weds, which was when I was due to ovulate. To make things worse he then had to stay an extra day! But somehow we lucked out and my LH peaked the night he came home, so we managed to have sex every day since Thursday and I think I ovulated on Friday so I hope we've got a good chance.

I feel pretty relaxed because I'm so focused on my daughter and this is only month two of TTC for us.

You could order an Ovulation Progesterone Blood Test here
https://www.medichecks.com/products/day-21-ovulation-progesterone-blood-test

Or you could go to a private clinic

Oh that looks interesting! Have you done one before? Are you concerned that you aren't ovulating?

I think I have ovulated however Mira shows that I have low pdg and e3g after ovulation this cycle. I had a CP last cycle so this current one is the first normal cycle. I had light spotting on CD16. All of this have made me concerned. Tomorrow I will do a female hormone level blood test to see if they are within normal range and confirm if I actually ovulated.
Last cycle I did the same and they were normal. I had good progesterone level on 7 dpo.
Mira makes me worried about this cycle. 😅

@LucyCL oh I see, that's confusing. Good luck for the test this cycle! How long have you been TTC for now?

I have started to ttc seriously since this Jan. Got my 1st BFP this Feb then the 1st MC happened this March. Got the 2nd BFP this April then CP (the 2nd MC) happened this May. 😅What about you?
