Aaaarrrggh! I hate the 2ww!

Morning goingmad how many dpo's are you? I'd say wait at least 10dpo but see above and note I can't follow my own advice!

Feeling v negative today.when I wiped this morning, lots of CM which was pink/brown which means I've been spotting on and off since O day, don't think it can be IB just stupid body playing tricks....

bump let us know if you test today... Fx

Im officially on the 2WW currently CD17 so when can i start testing lol

Bring on Wednesday I say!!x

Should be wednesday for me too 10dpo then so hoping wednesday brings some BFPs!!

Bottoms up to all! X

next wednesday for me too maybebabyR - it's two weeks then since I got my smiley face on the OPK and about as long as I can bear to wait!

- for me too! Cheers one and all

I'm with you dolly just poured a glass of red!!

I have made a deal with myself to wait till nest wednesday till I do another POAS. So in the mean time, i'm thinking vino a go-go!!

definately maybe!! im 2 days late,got af symptoms but im NEVER late and had a BFN yest(tho didnt use fmu) and no sore boobs which i did hugely with DD so im not hopeful...im thinking the tension isnt helping,and holding back the inevitable af...so ive decided the only way fwd is vino!
Happy weekend to everyone!! hope it brings us what we are looking for xx

Ah, this testing really does drive you nuts doesn't it?! BFN yesterday, but not due till Sunday, but really not feeling myself.

FX for all of us girlies, but for now, a cheeky ??

Loup I think that sounds really good for you! Fingers crossed its the teeny baby implanting. Don't get put off by the BPN - I think its just too early for you.

I am feeling rough. These period pains are killing me. I've just broken out in a bit of a sweat. SO glad it is friday and I am going home. Ugh.

Hartey your time will come!

Good luck to anyone getting to valid testing time - fx crossed for you all.

No symptoms here except tiredeness - but that could just be from day to day living!

Good luck Bumpwanted 10dpo is definitely legitimate testing time, says the girl who tested at 5dpo! I caved....... It's Friday and end of week, had to do one even though ridiculous. Unsurprisingly was BFN and at the same time noticed quite a lot more spotting when i wiped and in my knicks (sorry tmi i know) so now no idea what's going on.... so frustrating this 2ww.

Good weekends everyone!

Don't be Tea! Been there, done that! Don't let it get you down though as its too early I am sure (says the girl who tested at 4DPO!)

Loup I am in awe of your self restraint! Keep up the good work!

I am testing in the morning. Have already decided. Reasons are:

a. morning pee!
b. I will be 10DPO
c. 5 days before my period and it says on the First Response box I can legitimately test in this period

I have bad back ache this afternoon though and more cramps and my sore throat is gone. I vaguely remember having period pains quite a bit before I was due last month so I am 99% sure the AF is on its way.

2ww is pants!

sorry to hear about BFN tea but 6dpo probs just too early. I nearly caved and did a test this afternoon but know that it's too early and that if anything, first morning pee is the best bet! Trying really hard to wait until Monday earliest.......Never knew 2w could feel so long! tea if you hold out until 23rd I'd be very impressed - I need to hold out until 28th for AF which isn't going to happen....

Loup that does sound hopeful, fx.

I have NO symptons aghh.

Just the normal slightly crampy feeling i always have post ovulation. It's weird how I never even noticed this before ttc and now i'm super body aware and realise I have this every month.

I did test again bump . It wasn't even an early predicting test and at 6dpo I would imagine I would need that! Am going to try and not test until / if I am late now..

bumpwanted fx those cramps are a good sign hope the weekend brings a BFP, my 10dpo isn't until next weds and I'm not sure i'll hold out that long.....

Good to have a silver lining, when I found out I wasn't Pregnant in Jan the silver lining was I could go skiing and enjoy some drinks.....if i'm not this month i'll probably be drinking the contents of our fridge....

ooh yay for you I think that sounds really positive for you! Do you usually have any spotting? If not, I think that must be a good sign! I so hope you get a BFP!

I am 9DPO and due on on 24th (this is a rough guess based on my regular cycle and i phone period tracker as I am not taking temperature etc!)

Trouble is I have had cramps pretty much since estimated ovulation day so I don't think it can be implantation cramps.

Really I should stop thinking about it as its not going to change anything, I have to either way for AF or BFP!

I did have a slight panic the other day about the amount of booze we have in the fridge (we moved house recently and so we had a lot of bottles of champagne given to us) and the fact that I wouldn't be able to drink any of it if I was pregnant....trying to see the silver lining!

bumpwanted what day are you on now? I had cramps yesterday which i thought i was imagining but then had light spotting - think too early for IB but some people have had 4dpo IB so holding out hope but then NO symptoms today - boobs not that sore, etc. It's not over until the AF shows her face...stay positive.

Started diggin out my pregnancy bible last night to look at days for IB - husband thinks i'm a complete loon.....

How's everyone else getting on?

Oh god Loup sorry for dragging you down the BOGOF route with me! I have left mine at home today and so I cannot possibly test. Trying to hold out until tomorrow morning.

Feeling pretty nagative about it all today though. Had period pain cramps again last night which were a little bit worse and I thought my boobs seemed heavier so thought...oooh maybe. This morning however, no pains, boobs feel lightish, stomach much flatter and I am desperate for a coffee.

Anyone else got any positive signs so I can live vicariously through you!?

So I bought two tests BOGOF that are sitting in my desk drawer, must wait until Monday. Have now accumulated enough Boots points to buy two more... brilliant.

late I'm not really sure about IB but from what I've read its fairly light and pink/brown (tmi!). Maybe you should test anyway just to be sure..... If BFN at least you know you can go again in a week....
Good luck x

Ok, ERTD came six days early this week, about a week after I ovulated. It was heavy enough to use tampons for 1 day but it petered out after that and was gone by day 3 without really any other AF symptoms.

I know nothing about implantation bleeding, just what I've picked up on the boards, so I thought it was just very light spotting rather than a proper bleed... Now wondering whether to test when I should have done (next Monday) as if the bleed hadn't happened?

Don't want to get my hopes up (who am I kidding, done that already, haven't I!) - and DH is already revving himself up for next week...

Ooo bumpwanted I must go buy 4 get 4 free tomos, won't feel so bad about doing so many then!!! Like I need an excuse.

Hope it was too early and BFP shows itself soon.

tea have u resisted the temptation to test? I know if I have the tests I'll use them - weekend will be really hard.maybe great points for holding off!

I'm sure I've had left side twinges today, probably imagined though.....

hartey according to my books (yawn) to have a girl you have to go early (up to 2 or 3 days before O) or go late (apparently after O EWCM goes back to acidic and favours girls) who knows? At the moment I'd just take a BFP and healthy baby!
Good luck to all - another day down!

Thanks Loup23 - although I thought for a girl you had to try and avoid ovulation - well as much as possible without missing the boat?

And Bumpwanted - I would have tested but husband is off on a Stag do this weekend so I am waiting.

But need to test or see the arrival of AF before next Sat (26th ish) - as have friends 35th and a date with the Dreamboyz!

Well you've done better than me maybe. I ma proud of you! Sorry to you and Tea for telling you they were on BOGOF - that probably wasn't helpful!!

God this wait is frustrating. I just don't have a clue whether I have any signs or just PMT. Today I have had cramps (had these on and off since ovulation), lower back ache, sore throat (but I think I am just run down and getting ill!), my tummy feels full of air, am eating all the time and I am a bit tired.

I have no idea if really that's just me on a normal day and I am looking for signs...perhaps I should take the BFN as the most reliable one!

I caved everyone, went and bought some first responses

Haven't actually used them yet though, so surely I get a brownie point for self-control?!
