(Think) I ovulated on Sunday. DTD several times at the right times(I think!) so it’s just a case of waiting now... boy oh boy, I’m driving myself nuts!! DH has no idea when I ovulate(don’t think he wants to know as it puts the pressure on him) so I’m flying solo on the 2ww. Which is where you guys come in Grin
Anyone else in the same boat? Fancy talking each other down from THAT shelf in the supermarket??

Me! Ditto with my DH too... However the last time we dtd I had to rush him as he was off travelling and the pressure was almost too much... He guessed then I was ovulating Woops. but yes I'm 6 dpo and testing around 30th/31st.... But I want to test in about 4 days time. I need to sit on my hands or something. No symptoms though 😥

Me too! I'm only 4dpo and want to test 28th... also not really had any signs apart from my temperature staying high. Do any of you ladies temp?

This temping malarkey scares me! I’ve used the OPK for the first time. Got 2 lines so got busy. I’ve already got 3 DC but they all were pretty easy to conceive. This is our first month of TTC. If it doesn’t happen this month, we’re waiting until at least feb to try again

I ovulated on Saturday/Sunday. Due af 29th October. Going to start testing on the 26th. Ovulating on the weekend was bad timing for us as the kids (12,9,4) were of course home all weekend and they stay up a bit later because there is no school. It was like mission impossible trying to dtd but we got it done. Although we both felt very pressured this round.

I ovulated early cd11 of I'm guessing 33 day cycle (it's between 29 and 34... Never the same) hoping that's ok so I'm just constantly thinking about it and I need to stop argh.This is my 3rd. I have 2 DDs but have had 1 Chem and 1 mmc too. 😕 One week tomorrow since I ov .. Hoping for some signs of implantation from now on ... Nothing major, occasional feeling like I've got an upset tummy but nothing else.

I’m not 100% but I think af is due on 2nd nov. That’s going by the last af. If going by when I ovulated though, it could be 29th. Who the hell knows?! Only a few days post ov so not e petting symptoms yet. Ugh this waiting around is annoying!!

I can see something but not sure if it's a line or a splodge... If it's more of a splodge may be faulty... I haven't poas yet... Only 7dpo and just no way I'll see something this soon...😖 slight twinges today but I may be just imagining them now.

I’ve been in bed the past hour with horrible period-type pains really low down. Feel like I’ve been kicked in the lady garden!!

Somethininthewater · 18/10/2017 22:44

Ah no your not! It is so tempting. I am going to take a test Sunday. Think that makes it 7 days before period. You want to test together then? It’s going to be so hard to wait

I'm in the exact same boat. Should be around 7DPO and I think I've already tested twice 🙈 Only with ebay cheapies mind. I already feel as though I'm out this month 😢

Mulberrywhite · 20/10/2017 10:48

@some deal! And enjoy your wine tonight I may join you. Oh no @lolly I don’t see the harm in testing tbh. I def don’t think your out. Don’t forget most people don’t have positive at this early stage and they also may not have symptoms! We are all in!
