Hello ladies! I hope everyone is staying healthy! I’m currently 12 dpIUI. I’ve got some pain in my breasts, cramps that are not like my typical AF cramps, I’ve been completely exhausted, and get abdominal twinges when working out and needing to bend at the waist. I took an early result test this morning and think I see a vvvfl, but I don’t know if it’s really there or if I’m making it up in my mind. I’ll wait until Wednesday when I’m supposed to get my period. I know it’s u realistic to think I’m having symptoms before getting a positive on a test. I think this TWW is just harder being held up at home. I’ve thought I had symptoms in the past and I’ve thought I’ve had positive tests in the past. It’s hard to stay positive during this time and after 3 failed IUIs. I also just found out that a close friend of mine just got pregnant with her 3rd after only trying for 2 months. I’m super happy and excited for her, but at the same time, I can’t help but think why does it have to be so difficult?!? Ok, that’s the end of my negative rant. I’m still thankful for everything I have been able to do and all of the support I have had with my infertility team. I hope you ladies have a blessed Sunday!

Rak hi! It’s ok not to jump from happiness when you finding out about someone else’s pregnancy. I deal with it a lot and at the moment I’m feeling like I hate everyone and especially the pregnant woman lol it absolutely normal and please know that your feelings are not really towards the pregnant person but it’s actually your broken heart and that’s ok babe! Your heart wants a baby and you deserve it equally as every other woman!
I really hope that this cycle will be a successful one for you. I’m sure your baby is not so far away!!!

AFM I’m 10dpo and my pre AF cramps are showing slowly... I usually have a 12-13 day LP so at this point I’ve lost all my hopes and just waiting.

Corona update: The shut down of our dance studio should end at Wednesday but yesterday our Prime Minister announced a lockdown of the whole country and our official quarantine till April 6 Now we can’t go anywhere except pharmacy, grocery, doctor etc... and for that we have to sign and carry a specific document..
At least when AF will come on 2-3 days I will be miserable at my home without having to pretend that I’m super ok and energetic in front of my students!
I hope everyone is safe.. I have no words for this whole thing...

CD24 and I just woke up, went to the bathroom and wiped pink! Crossing my fingers!!!

@Rak it is absolutely ok. I do have those feelings and like Alex said it is not really towards the person it s just your own feelings and emotions. I am staying positive for you.

@Punk fingers crossed

@Alex I am so sorry to hear that. This thing is so messy and messed up literally everything. I am still praying for a positive outcome, both baby and studio.

AFM 7dpiui not much symptoms really bloated. And warm at night. Cravings sweet but that is my stress eating norms. Started distance learnjng. Completed 3. 1 was complete disaster. Others not too bad. 2 more to go. Lunch time. Keep faith everyone.

Aaaaannnnndd I'm out AGAIN. AF arrived early to rear her ugly head. See you all next cycle.

Lalou is always so hard to distinguish if it’s AF symptoms or pregnancy. Of course personally I couldn’t know since I never been pregnant but my research tells me that is al the same. Our bodies preparing for pregnancy either way! I really hope all those things you’re feeling are pregnancy related!!! I will literally make a party when I see your bfp

Punk I’m so sorry af got you! Here’s to next cycle you can always come and chat even before O and while on tww. It’s very helpful to have ppl to chat about your journey!!

AFM 11dpo here and I cannot hide that I still keep a tiny hope! My temps are back up this morning and at 11dpo never been this high at 36.8C (98.24F). I have a feeling that it is because I’m so many days in the house relaxed.. idk if it would make any difference. I have major boob pain (kinda normal for me), light cramps like the ones I get before AF, skin break out (also kinda normal) and I have waves of nausea which I had last cycle so idk if any of this are legit pregnancy symptoms I cannot describe how strongly I wish I could be pregnant..

@Alex your symptoms sound promising girl and you are sincerely the sweetest. I will dance for your Bfp too,, even better if we could all have BFPs this cycle . When is AF due?

AFM very high temps in the 90 s (F). Extra tired. Still headaches. Tested out the shot. Had a complete BFN yesterday. So yeah. Just waiting and hoping. Off course I will be testing soon. Who am I kidding. I got about 5 cheapies left. 1 everyday . Blood test is scheduled for the 30th but it is wayyyy too far from now. Hoping to have my answer soon. DH is convinced that we are preggers. He is not letting me lift anything anymore. Such a sweet man. Keep positive everyone.

I will be jumping back on the ttc train soon! Praying for all you lovely ladies in you TWW!

Lalou please don’t forget to give us an update if you test! I’m so anxious to see how it goes!
AF is due on Friday but I’m pretty sure she’s gonna show either today or tomorrow. Cramps are here since last night!

K+Nmomma I said it on your board too! We’re here whenever you need to chat and take it out of your chest! We’ll be together again in your journey and hopefully it will be a successful one very very soon!!

AFM 12DPO temps still high, normal boob pain, af cramps are very noticeable and I only wish for a miracle at this point which I know it won’t come. Nothing else out of the ordinary so yea... not in my best mood.

@Alex - I hope those af cramps are a baby. Thank you for telling me I wasn't out yet. Your support and chatting has helped this time around and I can't wait to see you get the beautiful BFP you so deserve.

AFM - Well looks like we will be having a corona baby! I guess we'll kind of be the start of the wave maybe? I posted two tests on my profile and my lines are getting darker. I can't wait to watch them darken. I've never tested like this before so still nervous but excited to watch the line darken.

Since I'm CD37 and obviously ovulated late when should I call the OBGYN's? I was thinking of waiting a week. Then my lines will be darker. I expect my due date is off by a week or more. If I go from my LMP that puts me at November 25th, but I know I didn't ovulate around CD14 so I think this will be a December baby. My birthday is December 1st so perhaps a birthday baby? Who knows. DH and I are so shocked and happy. Worried about being pregnant in these uncertain times but hoping by next winter everything has calmed down a lot or we've gotten a new normal going on.
