TWW Anyone? - From 10th June

[NibblesMaplestick]

I was just wondering if anyone else is entering the TWW and wanted to symptom spot together so I don't drive myself mad.

DTD CD9 and CD11 and I think I ovulated on D13 🤞🏻

Welcome to new joiners

@DmcinT enjoy your holiday! Are you off anywhere nice? It will hopefully be a nice distraction for you ☺️

I am so hungry today but when I go to eat anything it’s like I have a lump in my throat and the last thing I want to do is eat! I also really struggled to wake up this morning. AF is still ages away though so think it’s unrelated.

Hi all! I joined the June board but thought it would be nice to follow along with people at a similar stage in cycle. I think ovulation day was Saturday so only 2DPO and already struggling not to symptom spot! This is only cycle 1 trying for us. We have 2 DC both conceived first cycle. I’m trying not to get my hopes up that we’d be so lucky a 3rd time but it’s hard.

Sending everyone best wishes!

I'm around 7DPO and mid-way through the dreaded TWW. Had a chemical last month so really nervous this time around. Last time I remember feeling a small tugging like symptoms and lots of cramps but having nothing this time round so not that hopeful.

Hi @purpleicedbun
I'm 7-9dpo now too. And same with the tugging twinges. I know when I feel that there is something happening but I don't have it this month.
Some slight little twinges but nothing I can say 'ooh yes' too. Had a bit of the mild cramping today that I recognise as the warm up to AF too.

Hey everyone 👋🏻 the suspense is absolutely killing me. So tempted to test but I know it'll be negative so it's pointless.

How are you all feeling?

@IThinkImThirtySomething we are off to Italy for 2.5 weeks, we’ve never been so I’m actually really looking forward to it. We booked June as temps generally around high 20s but as our luck would have it there’s a heatwave starting the day we arrive and temps around 38 degrees so I really dunno how we’ll survive lol

@NibblesMaplestick how’s the RHR trend going for u? I always notice a dip around 7-8 dpo if I’ve implanted and then rise straight away again, it gives a nice wee hint that implantation is happening 😉 if u ovulated Thursday I’d say we are exact same at 4 dpo today.

@DmcinT I would absolutely love 2.5 weeks in Italy, how dreamy! I hope you have a great time.

RHR today is 55 so still up at the moment, I'm going to keep my eye out for a dip 🤞🏻

I had some period type cramps last night, but nothing today. I would normally get these in the lead up to AF but that's not due for another 7/9 days yet

Hi all. We are heading home from our holiday today. I've been testing daily and nothing yet. I'm 8-10dpo.
Got some mild bloating/ pre AF feelings now.

I hate this wait think im about 6 days dpo and even though i know I camt get a positive test I still wanna do one, its like I've gone crazy

@Im1986 I feel the same!

Its so weird, I have 3 older boys 17 15 and 13 and was never crazy like this..think its because im older and I've said if it doesn't work first few cycles then not going to do it as nearly 40!! Also hae a chemical preg last month so thats in my mind too! Have u got any other children

@DmcinT oh that sounds absolutely lush! Enjoy the heat as I guarantee it’ll be grey and rubbish here in UK (assuming you are UK based!)

@NibblesMaplestick I think I’m around 6-7 DPO, yesterday and last night I had twinges and a pulling sensation on and off. I’m so tired - I didn’t get out of bed until 07:50 this morning and got the school run in 5 mins - I feel frazzled! I’m going to test in two days I think.

I hate the wait - it’s all I think about and consumes me!

I tested because I have no will power and it's a BFN which I knew it would be because it's early but still annoying 😅😖

Aw sorry to hear you had a chemical pregnancy last month
No, we’re trying for our first. Every month I want to test early!

@lm1986Ah sorry to hear about the chemical, that must be a real mind f*ck

@NibblesMaplestickand @IThinkImThirtySomething Right there with you guys- I had some cramps last night in bed. I'm not getting my hopes up just yet as I had that 2 cycles ago as well.

I'm going to try not to test until at least 9dpo but it is tough

@IThinkImThirtySomething Ireland so even worse weather normally 😅 I’m really looking forward to it just hope the heat doesn’t kill us off.

@NibblesMaplestick TWW is so hard the first few cycles, I was noticing every wee twinge even thou we know hcg can’t actually cause any symptoms until abt 10 dpo, it totally plays with ur mind doesn’t it.
I do kinda forget about it now until abt 10 dpo but I think im just so fed up with the whole thing. This is cycle 11 and with the miscarriage in between I feel a little hopeless which is sad 😞

@BognorRegenia I never got a peak when doing ovulation strips. The strips got darker to a certain point but never the same darkness as control line, so I did a digital toward the end of my window and got a negative so I don’t even know if I’ve ovulated this month so I don’t even really know what DPO I am… if I am going by my app (which is bang on with my period dates), I should be 7DPO today. If I can get a BFP on Saturday that will be 10DPO and good timing for Father’s Day lol.l but it feels torturous because I don’t have any evidence of ovulation and it’s all a bit pie in the sky this month.

@DmcinT I am sure you’ll be fine - plenty of suncream and plenty of cold refreshments! Is it a fly and flop holiday or an exploring / walking / out and about trip? What part of Italy are you going (I’ve never been but would love to so I am super jealous of you right now 🙊) x

Oh my gosh @IThinkImThirtySomething I could also test on Father's day. Now that would be cute!

I do have a bad feeling about this cycle though as I've had no symptoms since the twinges at 6dpo.

@IThinkImThirtySomethingI also never get a peak on ovulation strips! It goes from no line to a faint line to a slightly less faint line maybe. It makes it so hard to know when to test. Do you drink a lot of water by any chance? I'm convinced that's why they don't work for me.

@wfcats mine are always a faint line that get progressively darker but they never go as dark as or darker than the control line, and then they fade again! So if I don’t get bfp this cycle I’m going to do digital tests around my predicted fertile window and see if that gets better…

although this evening, I’ve just coughed, gagged from coughing and been sick. Had to go to the toilet to finish off being sick. I don’t feel unwell at all and has been very random! Maybe just a coincidence… 👀

I’ve caved and ordered some tests from Amazon. I’ll be 7DPO Saturday, going to try and hold out until Tuesday… I’ve had some cramps today, felt a bit nauseous yesterday, think it’s just all in my head though. Even the dog isn’t being clingy anymore 😂

I went to the shop today to look for a First Repsonse test and couldn't find them anywhere. I think it's done me a favour though as I'll wait a bit longer now before testing.

Hope everyone is getting on okay! Only a few more days to wait 🤞🏻

@IThinkImThirtySomethinginteresting! How are you feeling today? Are you still planning on testing on Sunday?

@BumblebeemeeI think I will be about 7/8 dpo Saturday too but I'm definitely going to cave and test on Monday, I'm resisting the temptation to test today even though I know it will be negative. It's so hard not to symptom spot isn't it, I got pregnant with my daughter first try so this is my first time going through all of this and I am not prepared.

@wfcats I tested this morning 😂 just from being sick last night and have a heavy feeling really low down. A bit like a bubble that needs to pop. It was negative which I expected,
but the feeling of wanting to test is out of my system now and I’ll test on Saturday - if I get a faint positive I’ll re-test on Sunday and it can be a Father’s Day gift lol!

@NibblesMaplestick I got some first response from Amazon on prime. I ordered in the evening and they turned up at 7am the next day (on a Saturday!) x

@DmcinT looks like I had a dip in RHR yesterday and spiked right up today 🤞🏻
