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 🤞🏻

Hope you don’t mind me jumping on here too.
So nice to speak to others in the same TWW boat.
Would be lovely to have a positive to give for Father’s Day!! Fingers crossed for everyone.

It’s my first month TTC our 2nd child.
11DPO today and don’t want to test as I tested 9DPO and it was negative so think I’ll just wait for my period now as not feeling optimistic.

@wfcats sooo hard not to symptom spot! I go through phases of not being able to think about anything else and being convinced it’ll happen, then when I’m distracted I’m a bit more rational but it never lasts long.

All the talk of Father’s Day is making me think maybe I should test Sunday but I know it’ll be too early. My period isn’t even due until the 28th, it’s so far away!

Oh @NibblesMaplestick this is so so promising 🥰🎉 and would be right around 6/7 dpo so very likely implantation, keeping everything crossed for u x

@NibblesMaplestick where do you track this? Fairly new at this so not sure what else I can be doing!

In that awkward phase of a bit of spotting and cramping which could be implantation but also very sure it's AF :(

Flipping heck you guys. I have taken hundreds of tests in my life and never done this before.

I took a test just now and quickly to see a faint line forming. Weirdly, I just didn't really believe it though, as the test this morning was stark white and this was quite a pink line. I was like What the heck?Then I realised... LH strip! What a dope!

I use the easy@home tests for both and the packaging is quite similar.

I managed to pee a few drops more and actually use a pregnancy test... and a definite BFN :(

@purpleicedbun this is from my Garmin watch, it's attached to me permanently haha 😄

@DmcinT thank you! I might test in the morning 🤞🏻

@BognorRegenia that sucks I'm really sorry, how many DPO are you? Could you still be too early?

@NibblesMaplestickI think 9dpo... I'm just not feeling it this cycle though.

It's really interesting about your RHR. I have the Oura ring and mine has been higher than normal all week (like a 65 instead of 55). No dips unfortunately!!

@Matchalattecoco your post could be me lol. I’m around 9DPO (never caught my spike / peak) I think. I tested this morning on an old out of date test and got BFN. I tested positive on 9/10DPO with my son so just going to test again on Saturday as would like to know before Father’s Day so I can wrap the test up and a babygro lol.

BFN for me this morning 🥲

@NibblesMaplestick even though I knew mine would be negative I was still a bit gutted to see the negative. It’s so hard waiting isn’t it! I bloody hate it.
Have you had anymore symptoms? I’m dog tired at the moment and keep getting a feeling like I have a bubble that needs to pop really low down where my uterus is but i don’t know if I’m just going crazy. I had that random vomiting incident the other night too which triggered me testing early “just in case”… I’m going to wait until Saturday now though… I think…! 😂

@IThinkImThirtySomething it is really rubbish isn't it ☹️ I think I'm 9/10 DPO now and used a clear blue early detection test so I think that's me out now as I think at this point I'd at least be getting a squinter. Gutted really but it's our first cycle so it's to be expected. I hope your testing goes well, what tests do you use?

Plus side is my DP will be happy with all the extra DTD next month to try again 😅

@NibblesMaplestick if u only implanted Wednesday (by RHR dip) it wouldn’t be possible to detect hcg by today, it would take a good 4-6 days before it would build enough to be detected on early detection tests so I think u could be very much so still in the running. 🤞🏽

I was just looking at mine and I had a dip Tuesday with steady increase since but then I was travelling Wednesday and all the busyness of pools, toddler holiday life etc could have caused the rise, hard to know. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Matchalattecoco that is so sickening and so easy done 🫣😫

@IThinkImThirtySomething
Aw how old is your son? I have an almost 4 year old girl.

I think I had expected to see a faint positive by 9DPO if I was pregnant too, but then maybe not If implantation was later, plus it can take HCG a while to rise too.

I’m not feeling optimistic but naturally still symptom spotting haha 🤦‍♀️ I did feel a bit nauseous yesterday and today when I hadn’t eaten and I’m still quite wet CM wise whereas normally I’d be quite dry before my period. You got any potential symptoms?

@NibblesMaplestick I wouldn’t count yourself out until AF arrives! You never know. It can take a while for HCG to be detected, testing before AF isn’t really advised (I just can never wait that long 😂!) my period is due in 6 days so I’d like to think an early detection test would pick something up… the test I used this morning was out of date by 2 years 😂 I’ve got some first response being delivered by Amazon man today though so will likely shamelessly test tomorrow AM again even though I said I’d wait until Saturday 😝

@Matchalattecoco my son is 6 and a half (Jan 1st baby) so will be between 7, depending on when we get pg - when we have another (if we are lucky). If we don’t get pregnant by the end of this year we have agreed to be OAD, as I don’t really want the age gap much bigger than what is will be, and don’t want to put all our lives on hold whilst we ttc, so I am really hoping we catch <6m 🤞🏼

@IThinkImThirtySomething I couldn't wait that long either and tested just now as I've started feeling really nauseous... I think here's a VERY faint line on the test but ChatGPT told me otherwise😅I guess I have to wait til Sunday again now ahhh. Also tested early last time, which then had faint lines but ended up being a chemical so I really should have waited.

@purpleicedbun well I ended up driving myself crazy today with the test (attached a pic). I could swear I could see a faint line / shadow… but I looked at it so much I was going cross-eyed. I was so desperate that I went outside and held it up to the sun 😂 🤦🏻‍♀️ god help me honestly…

@IThinkImThirtySomething I see something!!

@IThinkImThirtySomething you're not alone in being a biy crazy haha, I shone my phone torch behind my test today to see if I could see anything

So, I've retested this morning. Am I seeing things or is there the faintest of lines? 😭😭😭

A better photo 🤞🏻

Absolutely I see a line @NibblesMaplestick it’s not even a squinter to me, I think it’s so clear 🎉🥳 congratulations xx

Ooh definitely something there @NibblesMaplestick! Did you say this is your 3rd you’re going for? We’re the same, I keep having mild panics at the thought 😂

Congratulations @NibblesMaplestick!! That's a line!

@NibblesMaplestick yes that is deffo a line I saw it straight away! 🥳! X

@DmcinT looks like your RHR theory was pretty accurate!

@BognorRegenia @IThinkImThirtySomething thank you! 🥰

@Bumblebeemee yes this will be our third but the first is almost grown up now, feeling cautiously excited now! Hoping it sticks 🤞🏻
