TTC / TWW Feb March 2026

[Anya23]

Hi guys! Moving the January thread here!

@Anya23 If it helps, my first was an awful sleeper. He was still up every 2 hours minimum throughout the night when I conceived my second. So hopefully a lack of sleep isnt too bad 🤞

@Orangeroses243 wow that’s a great line for 10dpo! Early congrats, fingers crossed for lots of progression!

I get insomnia every month so don’t think it is for me, also had so much stress with a house move so worried that won’t help TTC!

I’m 8dpo but I’ve agreed with myself I will not test until a late period as I’ve got acupuncture booked in at 11dpo and I want to go in positive for this cycle!

This cycle minus the insomnia which could be totally unrelated, and I don’t want to speak too soon but usually have quite strong pms symptoms by now so I’m pleased that I’ve potentially balanced myself out with a better diet etc!

funnily we’ve had such problems with buying a house with reasons out of our control making them fall through, and usually on the same day something happens I have a fertility hiccup such as my gp having to cancel my coil removal or a hospital appointment etc! And we might be offering on a new one around the time my period would be due if second viewing goes right and I do wonder if I fall pregnant it’ll be a sign!

@Anya23 I literally said this same thing on the old thread!! Where are you at in your cycle again?? I find in my TWW if my toddler gets me up I won’t get back to sleep and then I end up thinking the same!

Ah yes! All night I was thinking the same and googling like crazy 😂I'm 1dpo, and she started this two days ago.. I really hope this'll be better this night!

No not this late before. If AF doesn't arrive tomorrow, when my girls are at school/playgroup I'll go and buy an FRER. Assuming you can buy these in shops and not just Amazon!

Congratulations on your bfp @Orangeroses243 fabulous news x

@Anya23 yeah this has been me my whole TWW 🤣 chatgpt told me it won’t but it’s also worth trying to get up to distract my mind and then re-sleep!!

@TvO2603Fingers crossed! I think at this point, any kind of test will show a pregnancy 🤞
@GlittertintI might try and sleep while my dd sleeps during the day, at least while I'm not working, I have that opportunity 😂

That’s a good idea! I’ve told my DH to let me have the weekend lie in’s during my TWW which has massively helped!

Hi guys! Congratulations to those with positive tests already ☺️ joining and in the tww, currently 10dpo but haven’t tested yet. Actually driving myself bonkers with waiting and symptom spotting, but feel like I could be disappointed if I tested this early. Planning to test in a few days. I’m not very hopeful this cycle to be honest as had some pretty obvious symptoms by 10dpo with my first pregnancy. Very hard not to compare, but I also know every pregnancy is different so shouldn’t count myself out. Sending lots of baby dust to everyone, ttc is so tough and it’s nice to have others to share the journey with ☺️

Hi all, I’m just moving over from the Jan thread! I’m 8dpo, and tempted to test in the morning 😬 I’m currently having what can only be described lightning bolts shooting through my nipples which is new 😂

Time for the monthly game of “is there a line or am I a raving lunatic”… I think there could be a line?

I see a line!!

@TTCNumber2in2025There is, I see it! 🤞

@ClaireF992 @BellaStar2020 I’m really hoping so, I’ll wait and do another test in the morning before I tell my husband, he was really crushed by the chemical in October so I don’t want to get his hopes up!

How many dpo are you?

@Anya23 I’m 9dpo today, which is when I tested positive with both of my previous pregnancies… one successful (he’s 2 now) and one chemical!

Ah that's great! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean!

Anyone else around when they just ovulated? My peak opk showed Saturday so premom said ovulation was yesterday and I had quite a bit of ewcm yesterday evening (which I don't always get so hoping that's a good sign!) dtd Friday Saturday and this morning so keeping everything crossed!

So nice to catch up with all the messages and see all the positive news!

I got surpise early peak OPK on Saturday afternoon and unforts due to a family emergency I had to fly unexpectedly so we missed Sunday after the peak and I am GUTTED to miss another month. I guess it takes the pressure of the TWW wait now as there is nothing to wait for...! What a nigthmare!

@LizzyRLI had my peak Friday morning, so Premom puts my o day on Saturday, although I felt the usual discomfort late Friday evening, so I'm 2/3 dpo now!
@tiutinkerbellIf you hit Thursday / Friday, you could still be in!

@Anya23 you think? We hit Friday and Saturday, just annoyingly missed Sunday!

Of course! You're supposed to have the highest chance of conception o-1 day so I think that's right peak day! That's why I'm bummed, because this is the second cycle that we miss it due to work, in October I fell pregnant immediately when we hit peak day!

Oh that's good to confirm, I always thought it was the day after the peak that was the most important. So much confusion with our bodies! It was so stressful yesterday having to fly on a moment's notice and then I felt guilty that I felt sad about missing a month when so much other stuff is going on. Thanks for lifting my spirits this morning.

With my first I had a dream about falling pregnant with her the night before I got my positive test so I really hope this is a good sign for you 🙏

I have done a cheap Sainsbury's test and there's a positive but could be a dye run as there's marks in-between T and C lines
