Ugh sorry @Anya23 I know what you mean I tend to silently lurk…until about 10dpo) then I become active again. Best to do whatever suits you best!

@JupiterDaze best of luck! Do you usually hold out for AF or are you an early tester like us 🤣

@fullofhope2024 ahhh I also had the weirdest most vivid dream last night! I wonder if it means something…

@Digby86 sounds promising, hope this is your month!

@VanessaShanessaJenkins99 great what the Dr said, hope it happens soon for you! Fertile window soon?

12dpo BFN for me so I’m out 🙄 I did like 3 tests with the same FMU and thought I could see a squinter on 2, BFN on 1. Then looked back a few hours later and looked like a squinter on just 1 after all so I reckon dodgy test. I’ve told myself not to accept squinters anyway and it has to be at least a clear faint positive to get excited 😆

roll on October TTC

Fingers crossed ! With my pcos I usually ovulate around cycle day 16 so maybe this time next week ! Xx

Tes004 · 27/09/2025 19:42

I’ve been posting on another October threat but see this has lots of ppl from the august one ..
so excited to see some bfp … this is my first month bbt and I’m around 6-7dpo - I was wondering how common an implantation dip is … and also did you notice any spotting during this time ? X

JupiterDaze · 28/09/2025 08:12

9dpo this morning, got another faint line not sure if anyone can see it? I really hope this one sticks this time 🥺

Good luck jupiterdaze!

truecrimejunkie · 28/09/2025 08:43

I'm new around here...well sort of!
I hung out on the threads 5/6years ago when I had my 2nd kiddo.

I thought I was done.

As I'm here you can probably guess I'm not!

I stopped my pill July. Period came a day later than flo predicted so seemed to pick right in. And I have had a full cycle with ovulation test being positive on thurs. 26th...so I guess I'm in the 2 week wait now.
Little anxious how my body would cooperate as I'm 38...nearer 39.
I only have one fallopian tube as I had an ectopic many years ago.
It took 9 months last time. So I might be nearer 40 if that's anything to go by. Although I think if I get to 40 and its not happened I probably wont put life on hold anymore! And the age gaps, which are already pretty big would get too big!

For me anyway!

Good luck everyone!

fullofhope2024 · 28/09/2025 09:02

@JupiterDaze i can see what you mean!
realky hope it sticks!
how are you feeling? I’m 9dpo today too

HansBanans · 28/09/2025 09:17

@JupiterDaze keeping everything crossed for you xx

fullofhope2024 · 28/09/2025 14:13

Ladies my boobs are sooooooooo tingly today. I’ve never had this before in tww, it feels like a breastfeeding let down if I had to describe. Has anyone had this? I’m assuming it’s hormone fluctuations but been ttc so long and it’s not happened before

Tes004 · 28/09/2025 16:04

Done a clear blue early … can see a hint of a shadow but will put it down as another bfn 😞 having a very low day - just feel silly and kinda like a failure ,, doesn’t make you feel great when you struggle to do what so many others just Sail through. Feel horrible for my husband too having to deal with a crazy lady

Sorry @Tes004, don't feel down, for many it doesn't happen immediately, but those are not the stories everyone hears about. I can see the shadow on the second picture 🤞
AF has arrived for me two days early, so onto a new cycle.. I think this is due to stopping BFing and starting a new herbal tea, which I might stop after next cycle if it just keeps f ing with my cycle.

Tes004 · 28/09/2025 17:09

I’m sorry to hear af showed @Anya23 hope things happen for you on this next cycle ..
i was saying to my husband it’s madness how it consumes in the 2nd part of the cycle - im fine once af shows and I know I’m on to the next - it’s the being in limbo and knowing that as I’m over 40 my chances go down every month ..
test has dried and it’s clearer now but obv cb are known for lines outside of reading time

@fullofhope2024 tingly boobs is a good thing .. especially if it’s a new thing for your cycle !! Exciting times

SallySummerPop · 28/09/2025 20:21

Hello everyone,

My first time TTC. I've done lots of research and trying to get used to all the abbreviations. Our TWW will begin 7th October (ish).

SallySummerPop · 28/09/2025 20:23

Exciting! Keep us updated! It's my first time TTC so I'll be looking out for similar symptoms

TTCjourney2025 · 28/09/2025 20:25

First cycle this month!
CD9 today… expecting ovulation next Sat-Sunday. I’ve been using the LH strips but I’ve ordered the clear blue digital that is arriving tomorrow. Also BBT tracking but feeling like it’s all over the place already!

any recommendations on what to try now or during fertile period? Someone mentioned mucus cough syrup in your fertile period?

Hey ladies 😊 usually a silent reader to have some company in the madness !! CD19 4dpo today, hoping to hold out starting to test until the 6th of October when I’ll be 10dpo 🫣 the unknown is the worst part of this waiting !! Sending lots of baby dust for this cycle to all of us!

MintRobin · 30/09/2025 09:59

@Biscuitbaby2218 I'm also CD19 and it's so hard to wait to test! I know wouldn't see anything on a test for some time but there's still that little niggle to do, just in case😅

Fingers crossed for everyone, hopefully will see lots of BFP's soon!

HansBanans · 30/09/2025 13:17

@Biscuitbaby2218 4dpo over here too! I’m cd20 and promised DP I’d hold off until cd32 but think I’ll be testing in secret at some point next week 😂

fullofhope2024 · 01/10/2025 07:25

Morning ladies how are you all?
I am 12 dpo today and quickly got dressed and out to work before I could test, trying to wait as long as possible if I can.
af not due until 16 dpo x

HansBanans · 01/10/2025 08:35

@fullofhope2024 5dpo for me! Feeling incredibly bloated today! Eating loads of beetroot in the hopes it helps with implantation when the time hopefully comes

wonderlust07 · 01/10/2025 08:38

@fullofhope2024 I am now 8dpo and it feels like the longest wait. It doesnt help that all my FYP on tiktok is people testing now so trying not to think about it isnt happening. I have been feeling sick, bloated, gassy etc but ChatGPT is keeping me grounded saying its just normal at this time in your cycle.

fullofhope2024 · 01/10/2025 08:39

@HansBanans fingers crossed for you this month hun!
I’ve been chugging the pomegranate juice like there is no tomorrow.
I’ve had very vivid dreams and the odd mild cramp. We shall see what the next few days bring. I may test 14 dpo.
im worried my boobs aren’t sore this month where they were with my chemical

Anya23 · 01/10/2025 08:43

Good luck everyone 🤞 what is pomegranate juice for @fullofhope2024? I bought beetroot juice for the tww, which I'll start in about a week if this cycle is anything like the last when I've ovulated on CD 11 🤦

fullofhope2024 · 01/10/2025 08:45

@Anya23 i read somewhere it’s a bit like beetroot and helps with implantation.
how much it works I don’t know as we’ve been trying for a while but it keeps me calm which I guess helps
