TWW Anyone?

MrsOverthinker25 · 14/08/2025 15:40

Anyone want to join me on the TWW? Currently 6dpo and it’s feeling like forever!

I have had the occasional shooting pain in my boobs, they feel bigger and had cramps/twinges on and off for the last 2 days.

My temp took a huge dive below the cover line yesterday but it’s back up to just above cover line today!

Come and join in x

I’m 5/6 dpo today too. Not a single symtom though and I’m not temping this month either x

Hey!! Ooh, when do you plan on testing? Is there a reason you’re not temping this month? Fingers crossed for you! 🙂x

I get a bit obsessed with it if I’m honest 🤣 so I’ve just decided to pass as little attention to ttc this month as possible. Harder said than done. How are you feeling? Any symptoms yet? X

NatalieSF · 16/08/2025 18:58

Jumping on 👋🏼

Currently 6dpo no real symptoms yet BBT chart is all over the place as I've missed days this month so it's not really reliable. Have a gut feeling im out this month although I have no rational reason to think this 🤣

Hey 👋🏻
I’m currently 8 DPO and trying my best not to overthink everything 🙈. We had a miscarriage back in February, and July was only my second month of having a regular cycle again, so I’m just taking it step by step and hoping for the best. I’m 40 and have two children from a previous marriage but this will be my partners first.
sending you all the best of luck x

BabyBorn · 16/08/2025 22:29

Hey, I’m 7DPO today after a miscarriage last month. I’m trying to distract myself in so many ways! 🥴

Im 40 too @Kirsty198511 and so lucky to have 3 children already. Hoping I will be lucky enough to have one more after 3 miscarriages in 13 months😩

It consumes you doesn’t it :( you can kid yourself and think “I’m not gonna read into it” and then you feel something random and you’re straight on google haha!
im okay thanks, to be fair apart from the odd cramp here and there in my stomach and the odd shooting pain through my boob (plus they feel swollen) i don’t feel much different. I plan on testing Monday at 10dpo but I’ll probs get a BFN! 😒 x

Hey, welcome!

My chart is all over the place too! Normally after ovulation mine just stays above the coverline until my period comes, this month it’s dipped below the coverline twice! When do you plan on testing? :) x

Aww, I’m sorry about your losses aswell, it’s so sad. I hope you are doing okay 🤍
It’s so hard to not symptom spot every and read into absolutely everything! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! X

Thank you @MrsOverthinker25 🙏 praying for you too.

Do you have any children already?

I started yoga 9 weeks ago and started acupuncture last week. Are you doing anything relaxing to take your mind off things and improve your chances? X

You’re welcome. Thank you 🥰
I do not unfortunately, i had a miscarriage at the beginning of the year and the due date would have been our anniversary! So im really hoping to be pregnant by then just to soften the blow, but what will be, will be.

Ooh I’ve heard acupuncture is really good for TTC, it looks so painful though, is it relaxing?

I said I would relax and not read too much into things and pretend that we aren’t TTC.. that hasn’t happened though 😂😂 so it’s just work and visiting friends and family to keep me from googling everything every 2 minutes! When do you plan on testing? X

BabyBorn · 17/08/2025 07:10

@MrsOverthinker25 aawww so sorry to hear about your loss! 😘 Soul destroying isn’t it.

Acupuncture shouldn’t be painful no, once these needles are in i find it really relaxing and feel a weird energy sensation! It’s definitely worth a go if you can find someone with excellent reviews in your area.

I plan on testing on Tuesday when I will be 10DPO. I’ve really been looking after myself this month. Remembering to take all my supplements and eating really clean.

Hope it happens for all of us soon! x

Kirsty198511 · 17/08/2025 07:30

oh I’m so glad I find this thread 💕 yeah the miscarriage was really sad and I was so shocked, having to babies prior it just didn’t enter my mind that It’ll happen to me. I’m remaining hopeful though.
9 DPO today and have twinges and boobs hurt - but this is what I had last month and my bloody period came (a day before my 40th birthday 🫣🫣🫣) so we shall see. I’ve spent so much money on pregnancy tests I’m going to get to wait till next weekend if my period doesn’t come before then.

Acupuncture sounds a great, I’ve never had it done before! x

BabyBorn · 17/08/2025 11:07

Hi @Kirsty198511 buy the one step pregnancy tests from Amazon. They are really cheap and I usually buy the pack of 50!! 😂😂😂

Yes nothing can prepare you for the shock of a miscarriage can it. So sad. Obviously they happen for a reason, most often than not because the chromosomes are not right. 😔

How old are your other children? X

NatalieSF · 17/08/2025 11:26

So sorry for everyone who's suffered loss. I lost my daughter at 34 weeks in February. Its truly heartbreaking.

@MrsOverthinker25going to start testing tomorrow at 8dpo although I don't expect to see any type of line until Wednesday if my bfp is coming.

What supplements is everyone taking? I'm on naitre and coq10 but I'm terrible at remembering to take them 🤣

BabyBorn · 17/08/2025 11:36

Hi @NatalieSF Oh my, I am so sorry for the loss of your baby girl. That must have been the hardest thing in the world to have to go through 😔

I am 8DPO and did a cheeky test this morning and it was a BFN! 😆😩 I have never got a postive earlier than 10DPO.

Im taking Methylfolate, high strength Vitamin D3, Vitamin E, Omega 3, and Ubiquinol which is a purer and expensive version of COQ-10 😩🥴 I am eating a really clean diet too. x

Thank you, unfortunately I had a placenta abruption and she didn't make it 😔 It was definitely one of the hardest moments of my life.

Its the ubiquinol one I take too along side the naitre supplements. I haven't really changed my diet but I know I probably should 🙈

BabyBorn · 17/08/2025 14:30

Wow, I can’t even imagine. I’m so sorry. Hope you’ve healed a little for this next journey 😘

Yeah I started changing my diet around 5 weeks ago. Don’t have anything processed now. Only the occasional sour dough. We’ve decided to try for around 6 months. x

ThatNimbleOP · 17/08/2025 17:36

Hi ladies!

11DPO here and tested negative this morning (easy@home tests which have rubbish evaporation lines FYI).

Most likely out of BFN now?

BabyBorn · 17/08/2025 18:43

Hey @ThatNimbleOP i recognise you off an old thread but not sure which one?! Hope you are well!

11DPO is still very early. Especially because we don’t know when we actually implanted!

MrsOverthinker25 · 18/08/2025 00:08

Hey! So sorry. I have just got into bed from finishing work and I’m exhausted!

@NatalieSF that’s so sad, I’m sorry to hear that!

I have PCOS so I take inositol, zinc, omega 3 fish oil, folic acid and B12 and then before bed I take magnesium glycinate with my chamomile tea to help me sleep 😂!! It is annoying rembering to make it everyday though!

I plan on testing maybe tomorrow as I will be 10dpo, but I’m not feeling very hopeful. If I didn’t have swollen boobs and cramping on and off since 5dpo, I’d say I was definitely out already! But we shall see.

I hope you’re all doing okay, one day closer to finding out if we are getting those BFP’s this month ladies 🤍

Hey @BabyBorn!!

Yes I started the TTC whilst breastfeeding - cycle 4 group 😆

Now I’m not breastfeeding and on cycle 11!! First one without the boob…still no luck. Temp just dropped so reckon I’m out!

How are you! Xx

BabyBorn · 18/08/2025 09:18

Hi all! Hope everyone is ok today!

Yes @ThatNimbleOPme too! I stopped BFing my 3 year old the first week of July! When did you stop? I had a miscarriage last month but trying to be positive for this next month! What been happening with you? Xx

Readytotryagain · 18/08/2025 17:45

Funny day for me. My bbt dropped below cover line yesterday but today has gone back up and that’s the first time that’s happened in my 3 years of temping. Normally drops for 2 days then AF. Also I don’t feel any indication AF is actually coming. I actually feel really good. Caved and order some cheap tests and thinking if bbt is still going up tomorrow il test then Xx
