So it's my first cycle of ttc number 3. I'm only 2dpo but I'm so, so impatient! Grin

Anyone else entering the 2ww madness? X

I honestly am usually a very rational person...other than during the 2ww!

I have at least another twelve days of this...don't think I'll make it to the other side at this rate! Grin

It's just a bloody killer, nothing in life gets me so anxious or obsessive than the tww. On 7po now, I estimate. Guessing I ovulated a day after positive opk, so the or there abouts. Can I hang out with you ladies whilst we inevitably symptom spot and get more and more hormonal? Smile

Of course lotty....welcome!

I had three positive opk's this cycle so goodness only knows when I did actually ovulate!

Hello! I'm a newbie too trying to concieve #1. I'm due AF on 13th and ovulated on day 14 and 15. Been using the sperm meets baby plan. Any other tips or suggestions.

Hi. I'm going loopy. Got another 10 days to wait and I'm symptom spotting like crazy (way too early I know). I'm ttc #2 but didn't do any of this with #1 as he was a happy accident. Just been on amazon and bought a load of pg test! I've got to find something to occupy me for the next few days!!

Thanks, nice to have some company! I am trying ttc # 3 after a mc in October Hmm Whilst like you ladies I'm symptom spotting, I feel less positive this month as last month I felt sure and was wrong ... I find it hard to trust my instinct these days as I want it so much. With my two dcs I fell pregnant really easily and now having a fertility nightmare. I count myself as blessed with two but can't switch off that broody need for another x

Harry waves to polythenegirl and sometimesbrunette

Ds1 was kind of not planned, ruptured ectopic with my second pregnancy and lost my left Fallopian tube (but saved my life so can't complain!) and was successful on the first attempt at ttc ds2...which can't help but give me high expectations this time!

I've checked three times today that it's still Tuesday because it seems that I've been on 2dpo for at least three days!

Lotty, stay positive, it will probably happen when you least expect it. How long have you been trying?

Hi Harry! I haven't tried opk yet but think I'll try them next cycle if I'm not lucky next week. I hear all this poas is addictive though?!

Hi to Mrsmorrison

Oh my gosh, I've just found a remedy for constantly thinking about ttc! Take a look at the 'most active' threads...'son is sexually active...'

I've been laughing so hard, not at the original post, but at the replies, that I'm waking up DH with my giggling. It's not a thread for the more prudish of disposition, but it's rather funny!

If it makes you feel any better mrsmorrison I didn't get any symptoms in the 2ww with ds2.

Read it - oh my! I don't know about you but I feel like on this conception area people are lovely but on the other sections its a quick as people can ram their opinions down your throat and be quite nasty with it ? That post was prob fake but I've seen others and I've thought oh no that's a but unfair ? X

I definitely know what you mean! I think the problem is that there have been so many ludicrous fake posts over the last week, that anything a bit odd is attracting quite a bit of ridicule. I feel sorry for the person who posted if it is actually genuine. Each to their own I suppose!

Let's stay on the conception topic...everyone's nice here! Smile

Still 9 days off AF/BFP but I've got period pains (cramping and back ache). Feeling pretty grim tbh.

Coming to join you ladies… I'm approximately 4dpo going by previous cycles/OPK. I didn't end up charting this month because sleep schedule was all messed up over Christmas! Fingers crossed for us all.

Lottystar · 08/01/2014 16:11

Thanks - I know I should stay positive but it's tough! Fed up of seeing negative tests. I hope the witch stays away tho PolytheneGirl, keeping my fingers crossed for all of us. One of us at least must get our BFP? Hopefully all Wink

I had a wee chuckle when you guys were discussing how harsh some MNetters can be. Some are absolutely awful imo, if you think a post is ludicrous don't post, just ignore or report. I think some folk just like to be inflammatory and bully online as it's easy to hide behind a screen.

I'm here. 5 dpo ( I think). First month using the CB fertility monitor and of course the bastard thing throws me up a thousand highs and no peak. Looking at the sticks and going from previous cycles I think I ov on cd13. I have short cycles so will know that I'm out pretty soon.

I am TTC #2 and am on cycle 7 with a 14 month old.

No symptoms of interest. I had no symptoms in the early stages of my last pregnancy, it was only the very dark implantation bleed days before my AF was due that made me test at all.

Good luck everyone xxxxx

I'm trying to stay positive. I'm wondering if today's period type pains could be to do with implantation. I'm only 5-6 dpo. Just purchased some pg tests online. They say you can test 4dys before missed AF. I think I'm going to be very tempted to poas when they arrive!

Even though I have 1DS already I've never actually poas before as I found out I was having him when I was admitted to hospital. So it's all very new and exciting!
