TWW, we meet again...

[Rachel320]

So here I am! 10dpo today and counting. Had some very strange sensations around my left ovary today which has left me feeling hopeful but trying not to get too excited. Boobs slightly tender and swollen but nothing out of the ordinary for me at 10dpo.

How is everyone else getting on?!

 

[Rachel320]

Anyone at the end of their TWW??

Update for me is that I'm now 12 dpo and my nipples are now sensitive. My temp is 98.9/99 which is good. I'm feeling hopeful but annoyed at myself that I'm hopeful because the fall will be bigger if I'm not P!!

I'm 12 DPO and have had more symptoms in this TWW than all other TWW combined. Sore and sensitive nipples and boobs, fatigue, twinges and cramping. My chart was looking good but now it's all over the place. I'm planning on testing 14 DPO if AF has arrived. This TWW is taking forever.

 

[Rachel320]

Hi Sarah, your symptoms sound promising too. I actually wish I'd tested this morning to just put me out my misery! I think I'll test tomorrow which will be 13 dpo - then spend the whole day being very low that it's a BFN no doubt.

Keep me updated and I'll do the same!

 

[sarah2211]

How'd you get on? Did you test? I'm going to test in the morning but I'm not sure. This is my first TWW with proper symptoms. Also my first cycle on Metformin. When I look at similar charts 55% of them are pregnancy and 44% ovulatory. My temps have been all over the place but above the cover line. So I'm feeling a bit 50-50 at the moment.

Ahh! Sarah I can't wait for you to test!!

Rachel things are sounding good on your end too!!

 

[Rachel320]

Hi ladies!!!! You will never believe this (I'm still finding it hard to believe it!!) BUT I got a BFP yesterday!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! I'm scared to be happy at this point because I'm SO early on and anything could happen but I have everything crossed. I was actually shaking with adrenaline!! I had a strange pain on 10 dpo, like ovulation pain but it lasted all day. So I tested the next morning and got a faint line, then did a digi which came up Pregnant 1-2 weeks!!! My boobs are SO heavy and tender and my nipples are extremely sensitive - these symptoms only really started yesterday. When things are hopefully a bit more stable I'll do a post all about symptoms.

But to help you ladies and anyone else just now, I can tell you what I did differently; took 2 weeks off work which happened to coincide with ovulation, gentle exercise including a work out the day I ovulated, cooked lots of fresh fresh food, and will you believe this...had LESS sex. It took the stress of planned sex away.

So that's where I am! How are you??

Sounds like it's a lucky month!!

Woo hoo!!

I'm still waiting to O! So got a good amount of waiting left to do lol

4dpo here I believe. I took the ovidrel trigger shot with timed intercourse. I didn't feel any symptoms of ovulation but I know a lot of people that don't feel their ovulation. I am testing the shot out of my system. All of my hpt are getting lighter and lighter. Feeling confident it will be out of my system withing a day or two. Scheduled to "really test" on July 14th.

This must be a lucky thread!

I got my BFP this morning. This cycle I did the following - started Metformin, ate pineapple core 1-5DPO and used a moon cup after BDing. I also made an effort to try and shift my mindset. The previous months I blamed myself and felt impatient. But probably just because of the length of time I was over it. I tried to tell myself that it wasn't my fault, I'm doing all I can and that it'll happen when it happens. I don't know if it helped but it made it easier to deal with. We BD every day before O and didn't eat more healthy than usual. I did cut out all alcohol. I also managed to jinx it pretty well. There are a number of reasons why next month would have been more convenient than this month. Probably Murphy's law!

Bellenuit you'll be Oing any day now! FX for you and jbuggx

Omg congrats girl!!! This does seem to be a lucky thread. Here's to hoping it makes its way to me haha.

5dpo and still no symptoms.

 

[BelleNuit]

I could definitely use a little luck myself. lol.

Congratulations Rachel and Sara! How exciting!

This is 8dpo for me, and I've been having major hot flushes with sweating very easily for no reason and very fatigued. I may be getting sick as I'm a bit congested too, but I'm hoping it's something else (as always!). Oh 2WW, how I love-hate thee.
