Me! I think I'm due a bit earlier than you but I'm already finding this wait sooooo frustrating!

It's such a long wait isnt it Shock I have a wedding and a bday party on the next two weekends to keep me distracted but its the do I drink/not drink dilemma .... so frustrating !! I feel like I need to live my life during the ttc process as who knows how long this journey will take but then there's the guilt of it affecting my chances of getting that bfp....

@secretllama I'd have a few drinks and enjoy yourself. Have a good time. Now if someone finds you asleep under a toilet cubicle at 2am that's a whole different story 😂 but a few drinks is grand.

I feel bored of ttc this cycle (4). I have had 3 early losses in a row and it takes a lot of the fun out of it.

It was really fun BD this month though. My libido has been high. At least there's that 😂

I'm going to jump on if no one minds 😅 I'm due AF around the same time but ovulated early this month so my three apps are saying 7th, 9th, 11th

Wasn't meant to be trying this month but was technically our 3rd cycle this month and we got giddy and ended up using the pull out method but knowing me we will have caught so going to wait until AF due date to see what happens

@KCM99 sorry to hear about your losses! Flowers

@flossy12 I bet it's the not trying that could work wonders Grin so many anecdotes tell me!

hi ladies! AF due 9th August here so would love some buddies to rant to during the 2ww....as far its been awful hate the unknown 😑 This is cycle 1 to conceive baby number 2. didn't temp or ovulation test or anything according to one app I have dtd 2x during fertile window and the other only once so not hopeful 😑 We agreed to not become chore like or stressy so more or less not preventing but not proper 'trying' but not I really don't want a BFN 😣

Hey mind if I jump onto this thread 😊

I'm 31 and DH just turned 33

AF due 10th August and my last few cycle days have been 29, 34, 28, 35 and 30 😑 so making TTC #1 difficult trying to track the days. This cycle dtd every other day since CD10 so hopefully it works!

Also started with doctors appointment today to begin checks on both DH and myself as we have been trying for about 6 cycles and I've had a history with cyst removal. Had a 21day blood test this morning, rubella & chlamydia checks and DH got semen analysis next week.

Sorry for the long essay 🙁

Wishing you all well on this cycle! 🤞🏼

@Coastaldreamer my cycles have been weird days too! A day longer each time Envy This is my first cycle temping i just wanted to confirm i actually am ovulating I guess but will see what happens...cd16 today and no rise so will wait and see! Hope it all goes well at the docs xx

@secretllama it's sooo annoying having these type of cycles! I haven't tried temping but I feel like it would stress me out Confused

Thanks, will be happy to just hear if there's an actual problem or just need to be patient

@Coastaldreamer yeah I'm jealous off all these people and their precise routine cycles Grin haha the temping isnt too bad...it was the opk sticks that stressed me out more when I done those for a cycle ! Never really got a strong clear positive Confused although I've heard you can miss your surge in the night so trying temping purely to see I am ovulating !!

secretllama · 31/07/2019 17:15

Ok I jinxed it and got my very first strong clear positive on an opk!! Cd16....Wonder how it was missed in the other cycles?? Confused

Haha yep! I never opk tested twice a day last time and this time I did .... I just never really believed you could actually miss it by hours!!

@flossy12 lol! 😂 They really have no idea of the wonderful things we go through.

6DPO (I think) and counting...

Anyone testing early??

OPK’s have never seemed to work for me and pretty sure got PG the last times right at the end of my period but stupidly didn’t get going on that very quickly this month 😓.

Can I join in?
I'm not technically in the 2ww just yet but not far off it. Ovulation pains, ewcm and back ache means I'll ovulate in the next few days.
I'm ttc #3. When ttc my it took over a year my second it happened the first month. This is our first month ttc this one so wonder how long it will take.

5dpo and awake since after 3:30am. Feeling nauseated, hungry and boobs really sore. It's now after 5am and hoping for some more sleep. Have had some food.

I always wake up in the middle of the night when pg. So if I'm not pg then there's something weird going on.
