TWW - who else is in their two week wait?

Hi girls,
Just checking if anyone else is in their TWW and wants to join this thread? I'm 3dpo TTC1. This is cycle #1 following two losses so I'm scared 😅 but trying to stay positive. I'm soooo tired today but definitely too early for symptoms.
How's everyone else doing?

Hi I'm 3dpo, this is my first time trying since I had my first child 6 years ago which took 9 months of ttc. I hope everyone gets the positive tests they are hoping for

Welcome! 🩷 wishing you so much luck this cycle. Any symptoms yet?

@Adventureandlight thanks that website looks super informative! It has said that I could have potentially ovulated slightly earlier than I thought but it's all a bit of minefield without properly testing. We said we'd leave it till the New Year and if we haven't fallen pregnant by then we'd start doing the ovulation tests

Thank you, nothing yet except I feel a bit off today but that could be nerves for me, taken a long time to decide to do it again! What about you, any symptoms so far?

pigw · 17/09/2024 16:48

@Bb542 oooh best of luck for Monday, I really hope you get some positive news 🤍! I think I'm going to try and hold out for Monday. Have to try and put it to the back of my mind...

@Adventureandlight I could be totally wrong but I've heard that BF doesn't affect fertility. I know people who've gotten pregnant while BF before.
AF due for me on Monday. What about you?

Have got everything crossed for us all! I have quite short cycles and ovulated early this morning so think AF is due Thurs 26th 🤔

Adventureandlight · 18/09/2024 20:11

How's everyone doing this evening? Only 6dpo. Feels suuuuuch a long wait 😂

Chesspeece · 18/09/2024 20:54

I’m not tracking ovulation formally but from physical symptoms I would be about 4,5/6 DPO. AF is due 28th for me, regular 28 day cycle! DTD every other day at least during the whole month.

Im tempted to test on Sunday 22nd as it’s DP’s birthday but still thinking that’s quite a way off AF so might not be accurate?

How is everyone else?

I'm 6dpo today so I think we are the same then.
These few days before reasonable testing opportunities really drag.

I honestly think I’m going to do a test tomorrow morning, I’ve held out today so I’m really proud lol!

I’ve also just felt a huge cramp for 4-5 minutes so I’m excited now😂

Anything out of the ordinary isn't a bad sign is it? How exciting.

GoingMadder · 19/09/2024 19:13

I've been having vivid dreams but nothing like the level I had when I was pregnant before.

Chesspeece · 19/09/2024 19:18

6DPO and feeling a bit sick - I know it’s not possible to actually have symptoms at this stage really but hoping nonetheless less!

Also had some mayonnaise this evening and it tasted different too! And I love mayonnaise!

How is everyone else doing?

Bb542 · 19/09/2024 19:56

Anyone else not sleeping well? I keep waking up wide awake at 4am and can't go back to sleep 😭

Oh me too! For thre nights now.
it's unlike me as after my magnesium I sleep very well these days.

Adventureandlight · 19/09/2024 20:30

Has anyone caved and tested yet? I'm still determined to hang on until Monday but the weekends are harder to resist when not at work 😂 I've seen I had a reeeeeally short follicular phase this period so have convinced myself (thanks to Dr Google) there's no way it's going to work out this month. I get SUCH vivid dreams when I'm pregnant too. When I had my chemical I had an implantation bleed at 8dpo so looking out for that but literally zero symptoms over here 😬

LucyLou0527 · 19/09/2024 20:34

I’ve had a headache for 3 days now, I think I will do a test in the morning because I just can’t wait lol

I tested today at 6dpo! I know it's ridiculous but I just got the urge. I actually enjoy it more than I should. A real addiction.

I've got my test out ready for tomorrow morning already so I'm not even kidding myself.

When I test early and see nothing ut feels like I've cheated myself from having that big reveal bfp wow moment. I'd like to not test until 10dpo but I know I don't have the will power.

I have had this today and yesterday. 6dpo today and trying to not let it get to my head although I don't think I'm going to hold out and will start testing tomorrow even though I know I won't get a positive till 9dpo at the earliest.

Keep telling myself it's not worked this cycle to try and not get my hopes up

pigw · 20/09/2024 06:35

I tested yesterday as I couldn't hold out anymore 😂 BFN. I'm not really having any symptoms so not holding out much hope. AF due on Monday

Adventureandlight · 20/09/2024 07:31

Morning! How is everyone? I'm so tired today but don't think it's a symptom. I had crazy dreams last night and our dog woke me up at 3am to go out. I think 8dpo for me now x

PennyPencils · 20/09/2024 08:03

All good here, not sleeping deeply at all for 5 nights now. Twinging a lot but this could be warming up for AF.
Anyone tested yet?
7dpo today and fairly relaxed still so far...

I'm 7dpo tomorrow and thinking I want to start testing. Had some cramping today but again not sure if it's anything in particular. I wish time would speed up!
