Hello lovely ladies, wishing you all luck on your journey. Anybody else currently in the 2 week wait? It has to be the longest wait doesn't it? I am only 2 DPO and already want to test 😭. I know I will shortly start imagining symptoms now too 🙈

Hey all, checking in again!
how’s everyone getting on?

im 6DPO, trying not to drive myself crazy symptom spotting, but having crazy insomnia which I had with my last pregnancy, breasts also tender which they never usually are.
really hoping it’s going to be my month 🤞🏻🤞🏻🌈

I’m 6dpo boobs aren’t sore but everytime iv had them recently with chemicals (two recently) iv been bfp. I’m definitely thinking bfn for myself based on this but looks good for you!

Lots of time yet 🙂 how is the cramping ?

OP posts:
Itonlytakesone · 29/06/2025 22:18

@WishUponAStar4no cramping. Stretching pains/ loss of appetite some days and think a bit of afternoon nausea which is unusual. Thing is sometimes I think you can ‘imagine’ symptoms then they start to show. On a month I wasn't thinking about it I got a chemical- crazy!

I’m 8DPO & gave in this morning!! First test of the day is the top one and second one underneath. Do we think the top is an evap? I did the test, saw nothing was showing and walked away, but when I came back in it was showing, very confused 😵‍💫

Also 7DPO and bfn.. so early and all to play for still!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Itonlytakesone · 30/06/2025 12:30

@Ttcaftertfmri know- it’s so hard the waiting. Have you got any symptoms?
I'm very tired. Stretchy feeling ovaries/ womb area… but no sore boobs

Alex2022 · 30/06/2025 12:36

@Itonlytakesone@Ttcaftertfmroh fingers crossed everyone.

I have a bit of feeling in my ovaries / slight sore boob but nothing different to my standard symptoms! Have you any symptoms?

We have been ttc 1 year now and it’s becoming hard 😔 and starting to feel ashamed. Also, why do people ask do you want kids like yes we’re f’n trying!!!

Alex2022 · 30/06/2025 12:39

@Itonlytakesoneyour symptoms sound positive, everything crossed for you !

Itonlytakesone · 30/06/2025 12:56

@Alex2022wow our symptoms are similar, wonder if I’ll see anything tomorrow 🤔. I know what you mean about people being nosey about it when they’ve no idea what you are going through. Best to just shut conversations down before they start. Like ‘not really thinking about it’ etc. I’m feeling hopeful for your test I hope it’s your golden egg.!
I only dtd once on day 12 & I ovulate around day 14 so I’m in with a good chance this month for me🤣

Alex2022 · 30/06/2025 13:45

@Itonlytakesonei also ovulate d12 & dtd about then but as your username says it only takes one!!! 🙏 Will you test tomorrow?!

Itonlytakesone · 30/06/2025 14:01

@Alex2022yes I’ll test every day!🙈🤣

Hmm these look positive to me too. Try a pink dye test maybe 🙂

Isn’t it!
nothing massive - headache, feeling a bit sick and funny taste (I’m not sure it’s metallic, but also might just be my mind playing tricks on me!) mostly just the usual PMS symptoms so trying so hard not to read into them! Thought I had some pangs of implantation today but really no idea 😅

@Ttcaftertfmr good luck for this cycle! My BBT tracking has been rubbish the past few days as I’ve been up throughout the night.
Ive not heard of those supplements before, what do they target?

@WishUponAStar4 YAY. The start of your new cycle can begin and you can POAS again!

@leah247x welcome 🤗 try using LH tests to track ovulation, should help pin point your most fertile window!

@DownWithCremeEggs I am truly so sorry to hear your going through this 😞 so unfair x

Sorry, just seen this!
so the NAC is supposed to support CM and its health
and the CoQ10 is supposed to improve egg quality and ovulation quality!
not actually sure if either of them really do that, but I’ll try anything really!

WishUponAStar4 · 30/06/2025 18:42

5dpo and wish it was 10dpo so I could test 🙈🙈 it has to be an addiction doesnt it ?

OP posts:
Alex2022 · 30/06/2025 19:22

@WishUponAStar4 I think it must be!! But equally it is a very long wait when you want something so bad! I will get a pink dye test as you suggested, TY! Will you wait until 10dpo to test?!

Alex2022 · 30/06/2025 19:24

@Itonlytakesonehaha, from what day do you typically start testing?!

WishUponAStar4 · 30/06/2025 19:35

Keep us updated. Fingers crossed for you. I love seeing people get their positives 🥰.

Ugh proberly not with the urges I'm getting today haha. I dont think there's anything wrong with early testing to get it out of your mind. Even though we know its going to be negative too early 🙈🙈

When you test at 10 dpo, do you use a normal one or an early one?

Iv never waited untill 10dpo. Well to be fair this is just my 3rd month and the first month was a chemical. But yeah I generally use early detection ones 🙂
