Hi all 👋🏻

I'm currently 3dpo.. wondering if anyone else is roughly the same and doing the 2ww?! I haaaaate waiting. It feels like a punishment 🤣 just hoping for someone to go through this with!

Hi all! How are we all?

@TigerLily38, any less in shock today?

Hey! Sorry didn’t get a notification that you’d posted 🙈
To be honest I’m still feeling a bit meh from AF’s arrival. Not sure what more I can try and do at that this point. I need a plan to help with my anxiety so struggle when I don’t have one. I’m sure it’ll all work out eventually though.

How are you? X

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 16/05/2025 21:22

Im with you on not sure what else to do! Surely sex at the right time should be enough 🙃 AF hasn't fully committed but I feel she's on her way. So frustrating! I dont normally have cramps for so long beforehand so not sure what's going on there.

I'm good though. Happy it's the weekend 🥳 any nice plans? X

CrazyKJ · 16/05/2025 21:59

Yeah that’s what I mean. Just having a lot of sex worked the first time 😂 I even restricted my caffeine last month but all that happened was I spent the month uncaffienated and knackered lol.
I had that a few months ago where AF was threatening to come for a few days before she did. In an ideal world she isn’t coming (🤞) but hopefully if she is she gets a move on.
We haven’t got much on this weekend thankfully, not feeling very peopley if you know what I mean 🙈 How about you? X

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 07:23

Exactly!! I did no testing, nothing last time! It just happened! Hahaha uncaffienated and knackered, not a great combo!

We've just got a BBQ today, so AF will probably arrive then 🙃 x

Hi all! How are we all?

@TigerLily38, any less in shock today?

Sorry I didn't get a notification for some reason! Yes, took me a day to really believe it though 🤣 husband was working away so felt like once he got home and I told him it really felt real then. Still POAS every day to check atm!

How are you both? A BBQ today sounds lovely - so jealous as I'm working! X

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 08:34

I would be the same @TigerLily38! My husband is actually asking more this time round, as he just thought it would happen straight away so he's worried now it isn't doing.

I'm good thank you, just on way to DS's swimming lesson! Ha, I'm a vegetarian so a BBQ isn't my number one choice (unless I'm doing it myself) but I love all the nibbles! X

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate hopefully you’ve got nice weather for the bbq 😊 joys of early morning swimming, we’ve got ours tomorrow lol.

@TigerLily38 Glad you’re doing okay 😊 it’s weird to start with isn’t it lol, took me until the first scan to really believe. Until then felt like such an imposter 😂

TigerLily38 · 17/05/2025 09:35

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate haha I'm a veggie too! I'm normally on the halloumi skewers & hummus at a BBQ🤣

@CrazyKJ you're so right, it really does feel like that 🤣 especially because you can't really speak to anyone about it haha! Still haven't told family yet but see them very often so think they'll be onto me soon 👀

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 09:40

Oh my goodness @TigerLily38I live for halloumi, it's bloody beautiful!

It's nice weather here @CrazyKJ, overcast and a bit chilly at the moment but should warm up!

OP posts:
CrazyKJ · 17/05/2025 11:48

Ah I didn’t think to do halloumi on our last bbq, that’s definitely going on the list for next time. Sounds delicious 😋 Our weathers pretty much the same, seems to be brightening up now. Think we’re going to head down to the beach as the toddler has requested penny machines lol

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 12:21

That sounds lovely @CrazyKJ! My DS loves the beach! I do not 🤣 we both love arcades though!

Also, I have two tests with faint lines with second MU....

Omg!!!!! Do you have any FRER tests you can take? 🤞

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 13:04

@TigerLily38I don't! I've never used them. These are the two I've taken. Won't believe it until I get stronger lines!

3dpo - anyone else?

Oh my gosh I can definitely see those lines! Your pink one is similar to how mine was initially!! 🙊🤞❤️ I know what you mean about not fully believing it though - I tested again today with a FRER to check the line was darker, it's so hard having no other form of confirmation isn't it 😫 x

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 17/05/2025 18:44

I'm going to do another of each of these in the morning with FMU, and I've bought a digital that I'll use if lines show up on those! Just want to get home and go to bed now so the morning comes quicker 🤣

TigerLily38 · 17/05/2025 19:01

Ahh good luck, will keep my fingers crossed!! 😊🤞🤞🤞

CrazyKJ · 17/05/2025 21:53

Ah @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate thats amazing news!! Can definitely see the lines, congrats! X

Anyone 7 dpo? What symptoms did you have or are having leading to bfp? For now I just started to symptom spot and my uterus feels heavy but that could be just uterine lining thickening. When do boobs start to hurt and how can you differenciate pms from pregnancy symptoms? I feel like pmsing same as svery month though, achy boobs, mood swings, hungry, constipated, tired. Can you ladies share your symptoms during tww leading to bfp? Baby dust to all of us who are still waiting ✨✨

Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate · 18/05/2025 10:11

I had no symptoms except cramping for 3-4 days which is longer than I would normally with AF. I never get sore boobs so can't help with that, sorry! X

Thanks @PoliteMentor how are you getting on?

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate honestly tired at the moment. Flo nd pre mom predicted last Thursday nd Sat for my ovulation respectively but the line only got very dark 4 days ago. DTD that day only to see dark blood while wiping yesterday like I was coming on and I am not even due till this Friday. Super frustrated 😩

Hi 🥰 the only symptoms I had was random insomnia ALL night for 2 nights before my bfp and a really stuffy nose - if I blew my nose there was nothing, but i still felt like I couldnt breathe, like it was swollen inside? I normally get really tender boobs about 3 days before AF but that didn't happen, they only started hurting yesterday and today really which would be 12-13dpo and it's in a different place to my PMS tender boobs. Oh and also needing to wee all the time but that comes and goes day by day!

Wishing you all the best, do you upload your ovulation tests to premom to catch the peak? If you're having bleeding early I wonder if it could be implantation 🤔 I tested positive at 9dpo so probably implanted around 7/8dpo xx

TigerLily38 · 18/05/2025 16:18

Oh sorry - also some mild cramps too! X
