So I'm cd16 and starting the dreaded 2ww and feels I'm going slowly mad Confused I'm already trying to decide what date I'm going to test but don't want to do it too early and break my heart with a bfn when actually it may just be too early! But I'm also ridiculously inpatient!!
Anyone in the same boat time wise or other?! Come chat!! BiscuitCake

Hi!

I'm 3 DPO & also hate the 2ww - it's such a killer Sad

Although I already know I am going to test on 11 DPO (Sunday 26th) because if I get a BFN then my substitute prize is to have a couple of iced cocktails in a steaming hot bath & read a guilty magazine Blush!

How many cycles have you been trying? It's hard isn't it & I'm sure it doesn't get any easier!

Although cocktails & cake do help! Cake

Hi!

I'm 2DPO on cycle 1. We TTC for 6 months last year but then postponed for a big holiday (I know, rubbish priorities right).

My cycles and luteal phase are really long Sad

Going to do a cheapie on Wed 29th as I have a minor local anaesthetic procedure with a gynecologist that afternoon. But then I'll try and wait until July 3rd to test again which is closer to when I'd expect AF to arrive.

Hi ladies!

I'm actually only on cycle 1 ttc for baby #2. Blush the thing is I've been mega broody for ages but we have had to delay trying for several reasons so as soon as I allow myself to start trying, that's it, I want it NOW Hmm
Dd2 we conceived on cycle 2 so I'm praying it will happen quick for us this time but terrified it won't!
I'm thinking I'm going to POAS 28th onwards. AF due 1st July ish! Wish j could just fast forward!! Have either of you had any symptoms of implantation or would this have not happened yet?? X

I'm hoping it happens quickly too. I'm so impatient hah!

Implantation definitely wouldn't have happened at 2dpo for me. Got a while to wait.

I've made lots of plans for next week in an effort to distract myself!

Haha, I'm the same cupcake! I'm quite an OCD, everything organised person, so when I have a task I want it completed ASAP! & this is so hard because it's totally out of my control Envy

No, no symptoms of implantation here. But I think it's too early. They say 6-10 DPO I think.

I can understand having a big holiday before TTC Nova, especially with this zika virus. I'll be putting everything on hold if I still have no BFP by September as I want to go to Costa Rica so badly GrinBlush

Hiya Grin cd18 for me cycle 1 (first proper cycle anyway, not counting the 1st one between btb and first real af). Already impatient. Wish I'd come off the pill earlier! No idea if I'm actually ovulating yet as not using opks but had an increase in libido and some ewcm on cd13-15 so based on that think I'm probably 3dpo? Going to leave it as long as poss before testing but have a big night out planned for what will be cd31/16dpo if no af so will definitely test then if can hold out! If bfn then will be having a few drinks! Good luck to you all!!!

Hi everyone

Just thought I'd join you if that's ok? Quite new to this on cycle #2 after four years on the pill so just trying to figure out my cycles still! Going off opk's I think I should ovulate today or this weekend and then will be the long tww! I must say, this ttc is quite stressful isn't it? Me and my OH were at first all very relaxed about it saying we'll just see when it happens (which I naively thought would be straight away) but now I'm getting all into these opk's and checking my temperature, cm etc, i can see how it becomes quite an obsession!!

Anyways, fingers crossed for us all this month!! Smile

ljomrs I'm so sorry to hear that. FlowersWould you be ovulating already? The opks I've used said that the second line to indicating ovulation only counted if it was as dark or darker then the control line??
I don't actually know which day I ovulated this month as no really obvious signs so I'm just going by my apps as my cycle is pretty reg 26-28 days.
Have you ladies ever tried the cheap tests off amazon which state they can be used 6 days early?? X

I've got some amazon cheapies cupcake but I probably wouldn't do them 6 days early. I'm a bit paranoid about chemical pregnancies so gonna try to only test when I think af is due. Easy said than done with my 31-51 day cycles Confused

Cupcakemumma123 · 19/06/2016 21:34

Nova, by being worried about chemical pregnancy, do you mean worried about getting a bfp if actually it's not? Don't really understand xx

Yeah cupcake, just the thought of getting hopes up unneccesarily if I could've just waited a few days longer and af would've arrived. Does that make sense?

Can I join? I think I am ovulating today. Clear blue OPK was non-flashing smiley today so DTD this morning with DH. However, not much EWCM, a little yesterday but back to creamy CM today? (Sorry if TMI). Good luck ladies.
