Anyone else starting their TWW? Come join this support thread. As a mum with ADHD, this is very hard for me! Going to try and put it to the back of my mind now!

I'm ok. 6PO that's not too far away, FRER's can pick up as early as 9-10DPO! :)

I think I will probably start at 7dpo😂 I know it’s impossible but it will satisfy my craving by just doing one lol, I’m so obsessed I can’t help myself.

how long have you guys been TTC?

This is our first month! Although I've been pregnant 5 times total since 2019 (1 resulted in my 4 year old son, the rest were losses sadly) and all of those pregnancies were after TTC for one month so fingers crossed I'll get lucky again! What about you? Smile

Sorry for your losses and fingers crossed for bfp ,I’ve been having loads of back ache and head aches had abit of pink spotting 2 days ago then nothing I did a strip test this morning and it was bfn going to try and hold off a few days before testing again.
might sound silly but what are frers ??

I have everything crossed for you! FRER are first response pregnancy tests, the most sensitive ones you can get

You don't need to do it on the day, sperm lives in the body so you could have sex up to 5 days before ovulation! Tbh I don't think I've ever DTD on ovulation day

It’s only been 6 months but it’s the last month that I’d still be 35 at delivery, and we agreed that was our cut off, but I guess we’ll see how we feel next cycle.

it would be our third, so trying to accept that it might not be ‘meant to be’ as it were whilst realising that we are incredibly blessed to have our 2 already.

have you had any tests?

With my other 2, I did it on the day of a positive opk. But tbh that’s what we’ve done this time around and haven’t had any success. But it took 8 months with our first

ive had all the tests done and so has my partner and nothing is wrong he’s 30 with one child I’m 28 with 3 and 3 miscarriages doctors can’t explain what’s going on we’ve been referred to the hospital but it’s a 45 week wait, I’ve said my cut off is 30 but month after month it’s more difficult seeing the bfn we both agreed to if it happens it happens if it doesn’t we still have 4 children to love and spoil, really trying not to symptom spot this month I just feel off tho lower back ache headaches and spotting I got up this morning to spotting but bfn and I’ve ordered some first response that will be here tomorrow

EarlGrey27 · 18/10/2024 10:21

Hi all,

hope you don’t mind me jumping on, I’m currently in my TWW after a 5 day FET. I’m on Day 4 (out of 14) and today I cracked and tested and I saw a squinter but my friend mentioned it could be an evap and now I’m worried I’m not gonna end up with the outcome I was hoping for.

I’m 31 and have been ttc for just over a year an half, last June I miscarried at 5wks and 5 days but haven’t seen a line, a squint or anything since. I froze some embryos with my husband when I was 29 and we’ve transferred our first one which was my only one from one round of ivf so really hoping this is a good sign but now I’m absolutely not sure at all 😫

EarlGrey27 · 18/10/2024 10:22

Just to add absolutely aware I’m testing early 😂 but I couldn’t help myself

Aww I’m sorry to hear about your losses, I am on my second month ttc after a break from my loss in November last year🩷

Symptom spotting is the worst, because all the symptoms are the same and I can’t recall what my symptoms I had with my first 2. For me it seems to be there’s only one, a slight implantation dip in bbt - that’s it.

that being said, I’m pretty sure it just wasn’t frequent enough this month

I can deffo see a line on the second, but hcg doubles every 48hrs so it'll definitely be darker in 2 days if that's the case! :)

@Anonymousgirl2 @mumTTCno2 thank you both so much, my friend gave me the rest of her tests after she got pregnant and I went to purchase more of the brand and it turns out they’re renowned for false positives. Anyway I went and got some more from boots and I’ll retest in a couple of days
