Well the day came on my first month of TTC , yesterday and today my OPK said I was good to go so after DTD both days instead of every other day this month I now have my first 2WW!

I know it will probably take me longer than my first cycle and thats ok, but how exciting and nerve racking at the same time.

I have spent all my adult life worrying if AF was a day late and now I want her to be so much so I can get my BFP! It's crazy to think that there is a possibility that in less than a year I could be sitting here will a baby!

How do you stay so patient every cycle waiting like this lol

I'm on my first 2ww but for DC#2
First time round we just stopped using protection and I didn't pay any attention. Didn't even track my period or anything just realised that it was about due and did the test.

This time!!! driving myself crazy looking for symptoms. OH has said not to test until period late so I'm waiting til Friday.

I've got a cold at the moment so don't feel up to much which i think is making it worse.

HisLommel · 08/10/2013 01:24

Another one on my first 2ww. 3rd child (plus 2 stepsons!) but this is the first that has been "properly" planned with OPKs and charting and things

Got a smiley face with CB digital this morning and what definitely felt like ov pains tonight. DTD this afternoon AND this evening Have already googled to see how early it's possible to get a BFP!

hazchem · 10/10/2013 00:06

No AF yet :) feeling very excited about this. Will probably get a test this afternoon :)

HisLommel · 10/10/2013 00:08

Good luck hazchem!

NobodyPutsMyBabyInTheCorner · 10/10/2013 12:18

Can I join?

AF due on the 22nd.
I would definitely advise against testing early!

Good luck Haz

Mandyflo · 10/10/2013 12:33

Me too. Although right at the end of 2WW. Currently waiting for period but preferably BFP.
Long story... but had Breast Cancer 7 years ago and after such a long wait and lots of cancer related hormone drugs finally have the go ahead to start trying. This is first cycle TTC. I've only had two periods since finishing meds and these were 32 days apart. I'm on day 28 today and tested this morning with a BFN (thinking maybe my cycle will be 28 days as not really sure). Am now hoping my cycle is going to be 32 days again and i'm testing to early.
FINGERS CROSSED would be a miracle for me at this stage.
Good luck ladies xxx

NobodyPutsMyBabyInTheCorner · 10/10/2013 14:09

Good luck Mandyflo you certainly wouldn't be the first to get a BFP in the first cycle

HisLommel · 10/10/2013 15:08

Fingers crossed to you both!

Sazzyb1 · 10/10/2013 22:53

Any news hazchem ?

Good luck everyone else! This is so exciting, I'm not holding my breath as it's only my first cycle but I can dream lol

Very good news :) Very very happy. A little stunned it happened so quickly but really pleased. Due end of June and if DS is anything to go by it really will be the end of June. We probably wont tell anyone for a while yet I'll probably tell my parents sooner then everyone just for the support ect.

How is everyone else doing? Hoping you can all announce BFP very soon.

NobodyPutsMyBabyInTheCorner · 11/10/2013 10:35

Congratulations Haz!
I hope it happens as quickly for the rest of us!

Mandyflo · 11/10/2013 15:28

Huge Congrats Hazchem.
Am waiting for my AF right now. As not 100% sure on cycle length anything could happen at this point. Was 28 days yesterday, Tested and negative but if cycle is longer (last one was 32 days) am still hoping too early to get Positive.
Have a bit of mild cramping today but have a dodgy tummy so hoping its that or would be even better if implantation cramps.
FINGERS CROSSED as Good News right now would be fantastic :)

AnythingNotEverything · 11/10/2013 15:30

Hi all,

Just saw this and thought I'd pop in.

I started an almost identical thread in January, and am now 39+2 waiting for the arrival of DC2.

Good luck!

rachmultiplemum · 11/10/2013 17:13

Hi all.

I am currently ttc number 6 and am just into the 2ww. Feeling pretty rubbish at the moment and i have to keep reminding myself that it is far too early to have any symptoms!

HisLommel · 11/10/2013 17:33

Ha rach I'm the same. Currently 5dpo with cramps and feeling a bit sick but I know it's too early for that

hazchem · 11/10/2013 19:41

I had cramping the day before I tested and have felt funny for about a week.
I kept saying the coffee tastes weird too. fingers crossed for you all.

AprilS · 12/10/2013 02:36

I'm lay awake now with dull aches and i've been nauseous for two days. This is our first go at TTC didn't think it would happen first try (and I guess it might not have) we're off on holiday on the 19th where we planned to do lots of dtd. Opps. Good job we got other stuff planned to!

Sazzyb1 · 13/10/2013 17:40

That's great news Haz! Congrats, well as I have a long cycle and on average a 16 day LP I have to wait till the 22nd for AF, I think I'm making up symptoms right now, I keep thinking I feel sick and get slight cramping for the last 2 days, but to be honest I think all that's in my head! I am 7days post ov now.

To be honest I don't feel pregnant (I know it's to early to tell) we will see though!

This wait is so long! Don't know how I'm gonna do this very month lol

How is everyone? Any more good news xxx

HisLommel · 13/10/2013 19:21

Sazzy you sound the same as me 7dpo with sickness and cramps, trying to convince myself it's nothing but failing and my hopes are up!

VJONES1985 · 13/10/2013 19:24

Hi all. I'm in my third 2ww and sazzy, I wish I had a long lp like you. Mine has been 8 days so a long one is my dream!!

I'm 4dpo and have had cramping, wind and tingly boobs. But not sure why, as it's too early symptoms really.

Sazzyb1 · 13/10/2013 21:32

Please can I join? My first post after lurking around for a few weeks. You seem a friendly bunch so thought I'd dip my toe in.
TTC first child. Been off the pill since June and cycles have been a bit varied- between 24 and 32 days. AF due around 20th give or take...have ordered a batch of OPKs to use next cycle in an attempt to apply some science if need be. Fingers crossed for you all

Hi Carks, good luck! Fx you won't need those OPKs for next month!
I've given in and tested at 8dpo. Not even shining a torch on the test is making the second line appear
