TWW - Ovulation 27/9 - Any buddies?!

Hey all!
I’ve enjoyed having a little thread of TWW buddies the last two cycles! I’m 1dpo and can’t seem to see a buddy thread of anyone who’s at a similar point so I made one!

TTC living baby number 2, we have a 2yo and have had 3 losses this year!

Anyone want to join me in this wait?!

Thanks ladies, I envy all those with willpower able to wait until AF is late!😂

PoppyPeaches · 03/10/2024 20:56

@Abombflower I don’t have any better willpower…. I just prefer to kid myself for as long as possible that I could be , rather than know I’m definitely not! So then AF starts and I kid myself for a few days it’s implantation bleeding, and then the flood gates open and I can’t pretend anymore…. 🤣🤣🤣 But at least it’s closer to being able to try again! I’ve tested early some months but it’s just made the heartbreak worse for me!

RoseannesMamma · 03/10/2024 22:27

Definitely not out yet @Abombflower !

You sound like me @PoppyPeaches !! Except I do test and still convince myself it might be positive next time!

I’m gonna try and have some willpower this cycle and not drive myself crackers testing but we’ll see how that goes! AF is due on Wednesday how hard can it be to wait!! 🙄

How are we all doing?
Giving myself a pat on the back for making it almost all the way through 8dpo without testing! 😂

Haha well done!! I’m 9dpo today and also managed to hold off testing! 💪💪 I have been having weird on off nausea all day though - pretty sure it’s too early for morning sickness, but here’s hoping 🤣🤣🤞🤞

RoseannesMamma · 06/10/2024 00:04

High five to willpower!! 💪🏻

Oooh who knows, might be something, or might be one of those tricks our bodies like to play!!

I won’t be able to wait till AF though… I’ll test Tuesday eve I think. Need to know if I’m likely to be waking up to AF the next morning! Can’t use BBT as an indicator as it doesn’t drop until AF actually arrives!

Hi I would like to join

we are trying to conceive our second she’s nearly 13 months

I am 8DO, I had really intense cramps yesterday morning which lasted most of the day, slowly went by the evening. With my first I felt implantation 5 days after conception. I might sound crazy but I know I did but I didn’t get any bleed after that pain till I was due 3 days before AF. I had sore boobs 2 after the pain too for the whole 2 weeks leading up to my period, I was also sick every morning from a week before my AF till I gave birth lol I had mild period cramps leading up to my missed period. So I guess I’m just trying to symptom spot. I’m due my AF next Friday so we will see

Hey no definitely isn’t too early, I had sickness the whole week leading up to my AF the month I got pregnant! The Sunday night I went to brush my teeth and made me sick, then all week at work I kept being sick during the morning and my AF was due on the Friday. I thought how can this happen lol so don’t rule yourself out! Fingers crossed for us this cycle

Harriet1989 · 06/10/2024 15:18

I'm 10dpo today but negative this morning.. AF is due tomorrow so going to test again in the morning but hopefully know either way soon! Short leuteal phase always worries me as it seems like AF is coming too early but I've got pregnant twice before so telling myself it just means I know sooner 😂

RoseannesMamma · 06/10/2024 19:08

Hi @Butterflygirl23 and good luck for this cycle!

Randomly after saying my BBT doesn’t usually drop before AF, it dropped last night. I’ve also started spotting. I don’t want to get my hopes up thinking it’s implantation when it’s probably more likely that it isn’t! Hoping my BBT goes back up tomorrow or else I’m probably out!

OP posts:
RoseannesMamma · 06/10/2024 19:10

Sorry to hear @Harriet1989 ! Here’s hoping AF doesn’t arrive! I have an 11 day luteal phase so on the shorter side of normal. I’m 9dpo and due on Wednesday!

OP posts:
Harriet1989 · 06/10/2024 19:21

I just started spotting too @RoseannesMamma . I'll tell myself what I thought when I read your message - you're not out until AF arrives!

RoseannesMamma · 06/10/2024 22:39

Hoping so much that this is our cycle!
Applauding myself for nearly getting through another day without testing!!

I have nothing against people who test early, I usually do! Trying a different approach to testing to see if it helps how I feel!

When is your AF due? Mine is Friday so I’m going to try hold off testing till a missed period but it’s sooo hard

Butterflygirl23 · 06/10/2024 22:43

Wednesday! So it really shouldn’t be that difficult! Come on willpower!!

Are you waiting till Wednesday or doing it sooner? Do you have your regular OMS symptoms? I keep getting headaches which isn’t usually a thing

PoppyPeaches · 07/10/2024 19:23

Thanks @Butterflygirl23 ! Had no more nausea since (although I keep trying to pretend to myself I am! 🤣), although I’ve not got an extreme sense of smell and was retching last night when sorting the dogs food, so who knows! I’m due Friday too so trying to hold off testing for a bit longer, but struggling!
@RoseannesMamma has your spotting come to anything?

RoseannesMamma · 07/10/2024 22:06

Thought my spotting had stopped but I think it’s still there lingering. It’s super light. Oooh heightened sense of smell @PoppyPeaches it could be!! 🤞🏻

I caved and tested today and it was negative 😔 I’d got my hopes up but I’m glad I tested because I’d have probably convinced myself more and more that I was pregnant if I hadn’t checked! Think AF is on the way again! 😫

OP posts:
PoppyPeaches · 07/10/2024 23:12

@RoseannesMamma oh no! So sorry to hear that…. And I agree with you re testing anyway… I often convince myself my period is lighter than normal and that maybe it’s heavy implantation bleeding, but it never is 😓 . Haha Thankyou…. I’m trying not to get my hopes up as been in this situation soooo many times now and it’s just my stupid body trolling me, it feels like I’m broken 😞 but hey ho, fingers crossed! Xx

Do you usually start early or spot before your AF is due? I still wouldn’t count yourself out you never know

Same here.. AF was due yesterday, no pink CM since yesterday afternoon and yet still negative this morning.. :(

RoseannesMamma · 08/10/2024 12:20

@Butterflygirl23 Yes since my losses I now usually get AF at 12dpo and spotting for a couple of days before. Spotting is more red today too so it’s looking likely that I’m out…

Sorry to hear! TTC is so annoying sometimes!

OP posts:
PoppyPeaches · 08/10/2024 18:04

I’ve started spotting this evening so I think it’s likely that I’m out 😪😪 Af due thurs/fri and I usually get this for 1-2 days before, so whilst I tell myself it could be implantation bleeding, it’s mirroring every other bloody bfn cycle I’ve had so far. I think it’s time for wine… good luck everyone else that isn’t yet out xxx

RoseannesMamma · 08/10/2024 19:54

Oh no @PoppyPeaches ! Similar with me, the spotting has increased and I just know AF is coming to get me ☹️ You never know we might end up TWW buddies once again!!
