You’re half way through the tww already then! I always get a bit nervous after the first week. Do you know when you might test? Keeping everything crossed for you that it’s your month this month.
I’m sorry lovely. These are completely normal feelings for us all xx
We all know how you feel , sending lovebb
Yup, 2DPO (had 5 minutes of cramps and change in CM). I've had two previous pregnancies - one a miscarriage and the other my daughter. Completely forgot (pushed to the back of my mind) how tough this TWW is. I'm going to do everything I can to only test once AF is a day or two late, simply because I don't have the funds for all the tests I'd love to pee on
Fingers crossed for you! It’s so funny how everyone is different with symptoms. With my son I had hiccups every single day of the pregnancy from 5 weeks but my symptoms didn’t really kick off until then. I do remember having some cramping around 8/9dpo last time though.Yup, 2DPO (had 5 minutes of cramps and change in CM).

Looking out for dry stinging eyes and mouth ulcers at around 8DPO as these are weird symptoms I've had with both pregnancies
I'm so sorry. It does absolutely break your heart. My friend got pregnant accidentally (but happily) and I wanted to scream.
The symptoms can be bizarre can't they?! If I hadn't experienced it twice I'd say it was chance! I don't know anyone else who's had the same, but I'm reassured that you have an "odd" symptom too
Yes I have felt the exact same!
It really is an emotional rollercoaster. XxI know it’s so easy to say and I definitely don’t take my own advice enough to say this but try not to be so hard on yourself. You are more than just your TTC journey and it was absolutely the right thing to do if you thought it may reduce your stress for a month. There’s no right or wrong in any of this and it’s just trial and error to find out what makes you feel better. I tried a month not tracking and just felt so out of control that it made my stress worse so now I track every month but it’s certainly still stressful!
Try Be kind to yourself, you’ve been through a recent loss & it’s ok to not try this month if you need the break. We’ve took a break this month also but for factors out of my control & im glad of it. I did feel guilt for a few days but honestly I needed the rest.
I have also taken a more relaxed approach this month - and have definitely felt the guilt! But again I think it does your mental health good to take a break from it. Hopefully being more relaxed with it works in our favour
and if not, I will be back to obsessiveness next month 
When is the baby shower and where are you likely to be in your cycle at the time? Sounds daft, but for me, while I’m on my period and already feeling fragile and hormonal, I couldn’t think of anything worse. But if I was around ovulation/TWW I wouldn’t be as bothered as I’d keep telling myself I *could* be pregnant and it might be mine we’re celebrating next. It sounds like your friend would be really understanding either way.
still no AF for me and another BFN this morning so having to presume that my covid jab has knocked me all out of sync or because I was particularly stressed last month that that has had a knock on effect yea that’s a good point actually. I’m the same, feel like a different person around my period compared to ovulation! My cycles are fairly irregular but it isn’t looking like I’ll be on my period. I might leave it for a bit to see how I feel before jumping to a decision now. Thanks for the reply
