TWW Anyone?

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 have started soy isoflavones this cycle! I am hoping it regulates my ovulation and does wonders! Xx

@MrsOverthinker25 yes it’s definitely a very strange sign!! I just can’t believe how pessimistic I am. I think month after month of negatives make you think it’s never going to happen…or it can’t!

My partner doesn’t want to either so it’s two people’s will power 🤣 I’m also going to stop looking at my temps as that’s added stress.

Not long to go…!

Yes I know, it’s ridiculous isn’t it! It really baffles me how so many babies have came from one night stands lol! How can I BD most days when fertile and not conceive yet a one night fumble and boom.. they’re pregnant! 🤣🤣

Yes not long to go at all!! It’s the worst two week wait ever and feels like forever! My partner always says “just wait until you are due on your period to test” and I’m like NOPE BYE 🤣🤣 I’m the worst so fair play to you both! Xx

@MrsOverthinker25!! I know exactly what you mean!!

Haha well I did test at 10DPO because I thought this is no way my month so haven’t been THAT good. With my first I waited till day of missed period but it was the first month trying so had a lot more patience 🤣

Positives if it’s negative are being able to relax over Crimbo so we will see ☺️

If no period by Wednesday I will test! Brown spotting seems to have stopped 🤞

How are you all getting on anyway with your journeys!

MrsOverthinker25 · 14/12/2025 21:40

@ThatNimbleOP 10dpo is still good to be fair 🤣 at least you don’t have much longer to wait now! Woohoo. Yes exactly, you can let your hair down, have a drink and relax ready for your next cycle! I am really debating wrapping a baby blanket and putting it under our tree.. I have heard it’s good luck to 🤣

lets hope the spotting now stays away!

well, this period was horrendous becuase of the CP but I’m slowly getting over the worst of it. I have one more day of taking soy isoflavones so im Intrigued to see if this makes a difference to my cycle. Have you ever tried them? Xx

@ThatNimbleOPI hope it works out for you 🙏🏻 xx

Kirsty198511 · 14/12/2025 21:46

My energy levels have been so low but seem to be picking up slightly now. 12 week scan on Wednesday which I’m not sure if I’m dreading or excited about, a mixture of both I guess. x

ThatNimbleOP · 14/12/2025 21:52

@MrsOverthinker25 oh sorry to hear that! Yes must be the hormones…I’ve heard of soy isoflavines but got warned off them as cycles were regular. They can act as destroyed replacement right - what are you taking them for?

@Kirsty198511 oh exciting!! I’m sure all will be absolutely well. Keep us updated cx

Thank you 🥹 Yes deffo don’t take them if you’re regular! I am not due to my PCOS.. I was only ever regular for a few months after my miscarriage. I’m just hoping it brings my ovulation forward, otherwise it’s such a long wait trying again after an unsuccessful cycle! Xx

ThatNimbleOP · 15/12/2025 10:46

@MrsOverthinker25 oh yes i remember you saying! Have they helped? Have you asked about ovulation induction medications too like letrozole to regularise?

I can totally imagine. When i was B'fing my cycles were all over the place. It was very stressful/frustrating.

So a small update! My temp has shot back up this morning 12DPO, period is due tomorrow morning. My temp never goes up so praying this is another good sign....still not testing until Weds though (if AF doesn't come!)

MrsOverthinker25 · 15/12/2025 12:48

@ThatNimbleOP this is my first cycle taking them so we shall see, I am not holding my breath lol. I think in the new year I will be going to the doctors and seeking for assistance for it yeah, it’s frustrating to say the least!

Oooh that’s good! Do you feel any different in yourself at all? Xx

OP posts:
ThatNimbleOP · 15/12/2025 13:34

@MrsOverthinker25 of course! I can totally imagine....really hope it goes well.

I've had some dizziness, pulling, cramping etc. on my right side where i ovulated but kind of feels same as PMS. More tired.

I've been disappointed SO much....just cannot get excited. Just remembering the facts. 3 positive tests 10DPO (although faint), minute brown spotting and a temp raise. If it's not a baby then it's been a cruel month aha.

@MrsOverthinker25 thanks for checking in! Well still no period, was due on Tuesday but I’ve still not tested haha 😛

Im too scared! My luteal phase is normally 12 days (confirmed by temping 4 months in a row) so I am officially 2 days late as I’m on 15DPO but I’m giving it until I’m totally totally out of the clear this weekend.

So sorry no updates yet!

How are you getting on? ❤️

Awww bless you! Is your temp still elevated? Oooh I have a good feeling about this cycle for you, you know 🤞❤️

all okay my end, cycle day 10 for me and currently in the airport waiting to leave for Budapest so I’m armed with ovulation tests just incase 🤣 I am back Tuesday but brought them just incase ! Xx

@ThatNimbleOPi've been lurking eagerly waiting for you to test 🤣 I have high hopes for this cycle ♥️🤞🏼

@Kirsty198511Glad your energy is picking up! I wish I could say the same 🤣 still absolutely exhausted

@MrsOverthinker25I hope the soy isoflavones helps with regulation 🤞🏼 Enjoy your trip!

ThatNimbleOP · 18/12/2025 15:59

@MrsOverthinker25!! Well I’ve never been late in my life bar my daughter and I guess Saturday was a positive test hence why I’m on my haunches a little lol. Oh 10DPO exciting, does it ever help to just DTD every other day or too stressful? Ovulation tests do take the guesswork and honestly temping was a game changer for me. It really taught me I was ovulating a day or two after ovulation pain!

I stopped temping after Tuesday as it was adding to the anxiety!

@NatalieSF haha! I know, sorry to drag it out. It’s a mixture of wanting to be certain and just being too much of a darn coward. I didn’t think I was Saturday so had the balls to test 🤣

S**ts getting real now!

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 18/12/2025 18:27

@ThatNimbleOP we always had sex every day from cycle day 12 - 15.

ThatNimbleOP · 21/12/2025 09:28

Hey everyone!

I promised I’d update you ☺️

Pleased to say we have a positive - yay! I’m 18DPO, now the worry starts if the lines dark enough 🤣 Second morning urine think it’s looking okay. Nice and clear!

TWW Anyone?

Congratulations 🎉 try not to stress about the lines half the time it doesn't mean much 🥰

ThatNimbleOP · 21/12/2025 11:17

@NatalieSF thank you! Got confirmed 2-3 weeks on digital as well which aligns.

Yes I know I started googling about dye stealers then wondered if mine should be. I’m putting the tests down now and enjoying Christmas!

How are you all holding up?

NatalieSF · 21/12/2025 13:31

@ThatNimbleOP the first few weeks are the worst. I felt mine dragged so much. I was the same as soon as I had my digital I stopped with the tests and then the nausea hit so that was all the confirmation I needed 🤣

I'm doing ok, still struggling with the nausea funnily enough and extremely exhausted but surviving. I had my gender scan Friday and we're having a other girl which I'm delighted about but also very mixed feelings after losing my daughter in February 🙈

MrsOverthinker25 · 21/12/2025 13:48

Thank you @NatalieSF it’s lovely here!!

omg @ThatNimbleOP I have just came on here to chase you for an update as I knew it would be good news haha!! Love this for you. A Christmas miracle 🤍🤍 congratulations!!

@NatalieSF awww how lovely! Another princess sent from your angel baby!! 🤍🤍

OP posts:
ThatNimbleOP · 21/12/2025 14:19

@NatalieSF its just more anxiety so no need to keep testing haha. Which is ironic as when I wasn’t pregnant all I kept doing was testing!

Aw that must be so wonderful but hard as well. As @MrsOverthinker25 said another little girl from your angel baby. 👶 I can’t imagine how that feels. Wish you all the best ❤️

@MrsOverthinker25 i think it was fairly conclusive but nice to have the evidence! So glad to finally have a positive after 14 long months 😩

Kirsty198511 · 21/12/2025 14:23

Ahh congratulations @ThatNimbleOPlovely news xx
