Getting through the TWW - 6DPO!

[Sunrays22]

Hello,

Just starting a thread to keep my mind busy and see if anyone else is in a similar boat!
TTC our second (DD was a complete accident and she's just turned 4 so it feels like the right time to try for a sibling).

This is our third cycle but first of trying using OPK's and got my peak on 21st with predicted ovulation on 22nd (I actually got my peak a few days earlier than my other tracking app predicted so thinking I've probably missed my ovulation the last two cycles). DTD on 21st and 23rd which I'm hoping will have been enough as Christmas has kept us busy and genuinely not had the energy 🤣

Anyone else currently making their way through the dreaded TWW? I'm trying not to symptom spot or test early this cycle as I definitely got caught up in it last month which was beyond disappointing when AF arrived.

Sending positive vibes to anyone else trying this cycle!

8 dpo today. Had on/off sensations overnight in my lower abdomen - not prickly necessarily but it was like I was getting hot flushes down there, and then the odd slight stabbing pain. It might all be in my head, but hoping this could be some signs of implantation? Has anyone else ever experienced this?

I'm 9 or 10 dpo, and due AF in two days! It is so hard not to symptom spot isn't it? I did get some pink blood 4 days ago (thinking implantation bleeding) and i do have other pregnancy-like symptoms. i'm trying not to get addicted to testing again. Good luck everyone!!! x

Good luck everyone!!

I officially think I'm out, 10dpo today. Caved and did a digital and easy at home this morning, both were BFN. Period is due in 2 days.

On to cycle 6 ☹️ what cycle is everyone on?

Sorry to hear that :( hopefully next cycle will be your cycle. I’m on cycle 4 but think my period is on its way. Due in 3 days

Could I join please? Ttc #2 currently 6dpo. Will be due on Friday. The wait is the worst

I’m 9 dpo. According to Flo I was due on my period on the 28th so it keeps telling me to test but I ovulated later than the other few cycles I had. I only came off the pill in Sept so things may still be regulating. All other cycles were 24 days, I am not on cycle day 29 but fully expecting AF today at some point as all the symptoms are there.

Can anyone see a faint line? Am I just being ridiculous

@momofonex I can!

I've experienced this too and thought I was losing my mind as it was far too early but the symptoms felt were so real!

The cramps are still going strong on and off today.

How is everyone getting on?

I think I'm 10 or 11 dpo today.

I've tested the last 3 days but all negative sadly :(

AF arrived today, one day early. Saved me from testing I guess. A bit gutted but it'll happen when it happens I suppose. Onwards and upwards.

Still negative- no AF

It’s tough, I don’t know if/when I ovulated (despite testing and tracking, I have an erratic, long cycle) but because of that it’s keeping me holding out hope that there’s a chance.

Every negative test is crappy.

Most likely somewhere between 8-12 DPO

How are the cramps now?

I haven't tested yet but AF is due next Monday so still a few days to go. The waiting is torture! No symptoms to report which makes me think BFP is unlikely this month - how is everyone else?

I've just tested again and thought I could see a very very faint line, but don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me!!

Looks like a positive to me!

100% there is a line there. It’s faint but there is definitely HCG in your urine. Congratulations 🥳❤️ x

@Lcc5261 @RRB thanks both fingers crossed!! 🤞

Todays progression! Eek. Trying not to get my hopes up though. AF is due on Monday.

@OrangeRainbow deffo a line progression there! Congrats x

Congratulations @OrangeRainbow!

I've just tested again at 11dpo and finally got a reasonably dark line. Crossing everything for all of us

@ThisOrangeCat oh that is such a strong line!! Congrats

Congrats @OrangeRainbow and @ThisOrangeCat!

AF is due on Monday but I'm holding off from any early testing - keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP

Keeping everything crossed for you ❤️
