TTC TWW October 2025 🫶🏻

[Ec2808]

Here you are lovely ladies made an october thread for those interested 🫶🏻🫶🏻

agree with what @memorablemicker says the CB digital is more sensitive at detecting the surge, but that's the good thing you get the time to have some swimmers in the right place at the right time 😂

Currently 7/8 dpo. Negative tests all week. This came up today FMU. vvvfl???

Been having ALLL the symptoms:
Sore ( . ) ( . )
Mood swings
Super emotional and irritable at the slightest thing
Period like cramps off and on all week
Feeling nauseous and dizzy spells
Some headaches
Bloating

Due on my period monday, praying it doesnt come 🙏

Oh wow, thanks so much for this! It helps a lot! 😊

Haha, yes! It's all about timing the troops. All so good to know. It all feels a bit more challenging and stressful this time now that I'm close to 40.

@laurajane07Oh I see it and all your symptoms sound so positive! I have everything crossed for you 🤞❤️

I got impatient and couldn’t quite wait, please may someone look at this and see if you can see what I see? It’s an FRER

@memorablemickerpositive congratulations 🥰🥰

I see it! Huge congratulations @memorablemicker ❤️

Thank you for looking with me @Ec2808 and @MamaGeordie - I’m really pleased to see a faint positive. I’m around 8-10DPO (tricky to pin down exact ovulation date).

seems like those CB digitals were worth the investment this month…!

I’ve often seen people take tests across multiple days to see the line get darker. Can anyone explain to me why that might be useful?

Sending lots of care during the 2WW. I was supposed to wait 3 more days before testing but couldn’t quite restrain myself…

@memorablemickera lot of women do so to make sure it’s a viable pregnancy,..if the lines don’t really darken or get lighter could mean a chemical pregnancy but try not to fixate to much on it and enjoy it it’s your first 🥰

AF arrived this morning so I’m out for this month. Played games with my mind too as AF was two days late, never mind. Is there a November thread yet?! Xx

@CDD1992 sorry to hear AF got you. I’ve no clue where I’m at as FF thinks I’m 16dpo but I’m potentially only 10dpo. BFN at 14dpo so who knows! I’ve not see a November thread yet x

There is still time for you yet @HansBanans! Keeping everything crossed. X

Hi everyone, hope it's okay if I join, I'm totally new here. I'm 34, TTC my first. On cycle 6 of trying and 8DPO, although only the last 3 cycles have been regular since I coming off the pill after 14 years. Just wanted to join in with others on the same journey!

@OliveParrot hi 👋 that’s good your cycles are starting to become more regular, best of luck for this cycle

AF has just arrived. That’s me moving onto cycle 6 I think, feel like I’ve lost track a bit! Clearblue digitals should be here by Wednesday 🤞🏻

Sorry to hear @HansBanans ! Onto next month, hopefully the clearblues help to pin your cycle down properly 😊 I’m 2dpo, my period only came back last month for the first time since having DD (still breastfeeding). From cheapies I ovulated on CD30 this month! So extremely late, poor husband and I were DTD every 2/3 days from CD10, and then 1/2 days as my LH started to climb. I’m a little bit unwell at the moment and this is my first full cycle since DD so I’m not hopeful, but am just wanting to get back into the swing of things, understanding surges and what not.

@AccountingMummy it’s a bummer that she showed but I’m just glad to not be stuck in limbo anymore! Best of luck with your cycle x

@HansBanans soo sorry AF came for you! fingers crossed for you this cycle ❤

Just hopping on if that’s ok! AF due tomorrow and don’t think I caught ovulation this month but we’ll see I guess. Just wanted to say is anyone else needing to pee ALL the time? I’ve had it for 2-3 days, definitely not a UTI but surely too early to be a preggo symptom already? Anyone else had this?

@Edenmum2 frequent urination was my first symptom with DD and had it 3 days before positive test soo fingers crossed!

I definitely had it in some cycles in the tww unfortunately @Edenmum2
But also it can be an early sign, if you've never had it before, 🤞it means something

Oh interesting!! Thank you both. Too scared to test because I’ve had a lot of losses and a few chemicals so just enjoying the faint possibility at the moment!

@Ec2808 thank you x

@Edenmum2 I have had frequent urination the past few days but think mine was due to bloating as AF has arrived today

Thanks @HansBanans, sorry AF has turned up for you, know what you mean about not being in limbo at least though and you can think about the next cycle.

@Edenmum2 I've heard a lot of people say frequent urination is a symptom - fingers crossed
