I am at the start of the 2WW and planning to test around the 11th August. This is my first proper month trying to concieve following a MMC in April. I am already so nervous/excited and just wish I could fast forward!!!!! Anyone else at the start of their 2WW? Hoping for lots of BFPs!! xx

well i did one ov test last nite and one this am, last nites line was darker, but there was a bit of a line there this am, and i'd only gone to the loo 30mins early wasn't fmu

my boobs are tingling more, but i dont know if im imaginating it

i am def doing the clearblue test first thing sat am
hopw i dont wake in the night needing to pee!
or dd gets up

mumpty when are you testing?

MumptyDumpty · 12/08/2011 16:20

Ooo sounds good Carried. When did you do the opk? Was it this morning, I have heard that opk can show +ve for preggo hormone! If you can manage it I would wait for as long as you can before going a hpt. I know it's hard but the longer you wait the stronger the hcg! Crossing my fingers and toes for you x

Well today I have spent most of the day teaching my niece to ride her bike, consisting of me running around like a nutter, and dodging my own DD on her bike ( she has also recently learnt to ride and let's say direction and stopping need some work lol)

Now feeling nauseous, tierd and have really achy tummy low down, feels bruised and heavy iykwim! So this could be either today's antics, AF or preggo! I dont have a clue!!

I know exactly what you mean about it driving you mad carried! Why do preg and AF symptoms have to be do simlar? Why can't you get blue feet when you Ov, Green when you AF coming, and Purple when you up the duff. Come on evolution you missed a trick there!!!!

carriedababi · 12/08/2011 10:51

THIS IS DOING MY HEAD IN!!

sorry about thatGrin
just need a bit of a shout to blow off a little steam,
ah thats better

still no af, nearly did a test again this am, but managed to stop myself, i think i might crack again tomorrow am, no real signs of af a bit of mild cramping but nothing too much, i think my boobs may be tingling, but im not sure if thats in my head!

i was doing ovulation tests to see when i ovulated, and i think the test came up positive around 27/28. then had swi on 29th
so i figured af would be due around today the 12th.

when i wiped myself after going to the loo, there was a blob of glop, cm, it wasn't ewcm, more just tacky, so i thought i'd do an ovulation test, incase ive cocked up weh i thought i'd ovulated, and it came up with a faint line, which i know ov tests can show up pg, or i might have miscalulated when i ovulated
and maybe ive actually compltey missed when i ovulated
if i did ovulate on 27/28 thenh that would be around day 14/15
but my cycles are irrgeular so not much help there, thats the only reason i do the ov tests do i knwo when to expect period

do you think i should do a test pg tomorrow am?

i have a clear blue in the drawer

was planning on buying some more tets are the tesco ones any good?
i think they are only 2 quid each, alos i think my local pharmacy sell answer ones which work out to 2.50each if you buy a twin pack.

montymum · 12/08/2011 00:28

Great news about the car Figaro, we plan to buy a new one next week to replace our unfamily friendly sports car! I think you are doing extremely well not to test early mumpty and looks like you have some really positive signs fingers crossed for you, carried and all the others on here still waiting to find out. Not sure what is happening with me, AF arrived monday night(two days early) but was very light (but heavier than what everyone says implant would be) and appears to have disappeared today so was much shorter than normal, so not sure where that leaves me with my next cycle. Having got over the disappointmet of it not happening this month have decided that May would be a great month to have a baby so going to get working on that asap!

MumptyDumpty · 11/08/2011 23:23

If I did a test!!! Bloody iPhone the I and u are too close together! X

MumptyDumpty · 11/08/2011 23:20

Evening all, hope that everyone us ok today.

littledragon did you test today? Hope you are feeling better today and enjoyed being spoilt by DP Wink

figaro glad you are feeling Better today.... Fab about the car, enjoy it

carried glad to hear that AF had stayed away, when was it due?

I have been feeling a bit light headed today!! This is the symptom that made me test with DD, but I was 8 weeks preggo when found out! Still can't believe I didnt find out till then, don't know how I didn't twig, she was a suprise but I was sooo poorly....thought it was long days and crap diet, till I passed out twice in one day and someone said are you sure you not preggo and a bell went ding ding!
It's making me feel quite excited though! However on the flip side, have had lower back ache, which normally means AF just around the corner Confused

Figure that on D29 of 32 day cycle, if u did a sensitive test I'd probably get true result. But I know deep down that if it was neg then I would only doubt it!!

carriedababi · 11/08/2011 18:27

fig yay for the new carSmile
what sort is it?

oh yeah i know what you mean about getting sick of having life on hold, im desperate fro a whole new wardrobe really, and keep thinking oh might as well wait until after ive had the baby and finished bf!

it does your head in doesnt it

still no sign of af for me, in a way i wouldn't even mind that bad if i got the af at least then you ould feel liek starting again, but i suppose there still a very slim chance for me.

i think i'll do the 18 day later test as suggested, if thats no, its def got to be no.

Figaro82 · 11/08/2011 17:48

Hi ladies!

Ive cheered up a bit now! We bought a new car last night, so excited about that!! We have been putting off getting a car for months because of the baby situation, but after Tuesdays AF turn up we thought sod it! Can't keep putting things on hold!!

Carried - Any further news/tests?

Any other news girls????

carriedababi · 11/08/2011 00:32

oh thanks mumpty yes that is helpfulSmile

MumptyDumpty · 11/08/2011 00:04

Hi all hope you are ok Smile

havealittle sorry that AF got you the swine! I rally hope that you manage to catch that golden egg soon

1sttimer after my mcs my cycles went abit crazy and had a 72 day cycle then 54 then slowly got back 32 day cycle but it's so frustrating not knowing what I'd happening, so I sympathise. I will either test Sunday or Monday I'll see how I'm feeling sat evening, if I make it there!

mammy hope your feeling ok. Good idea re: underwear, I always find that if I plan on having a special night with best underwear then always buggerd up by the arrival of AF.....that's why my DP isn't getting any Wink

littledragon sorry to hear that you arnt feeling to well, but hopefully its all a good sign Wink

Carried sorry that you got a BFN, I'm sure that I remember reading somewhere when my cycles were crazy and ibwasnt sure what wad going on, that you should leave it 18 days after the last time of unprotected intercourse and then test. Not sure if that helps at all

I don't know what's happening with me.... One minute I think yay this is it....then I feel like AF is on it's way hmmm!

X

carriedababi · 10/08/2011 21:45

well got a bfn again!

no sign of af thoughHmm

next month im really going to try and not test early.

well if its not too much information we only had swi 2 weeks ago on friday, around the time, i got a pos on the ov tests, so perhaps i'm still testing too early.

gone through two tests already this month

did the test this am but had to get up to dd at 5am then went to the loo so wee was only stoed up for 4 and a half hours.

my bood feeling a tiny bit tingly this am, that why i though sod it lets do another test, and my tummy feela bit swollen, but that could be over indulgence.

have a little faith,
sorry about afSad

LittleDragon · 10/08/2011 15:18

Well I've been tucked up on sofa by DP after going very light-headed and nauseous while we were out shopping earlier. I've also had cramps for the last 3 days. Planning to test tomorrow am.

mammyemcbe · 10/08/2011 14:03

Did a test and got another bfn Sad still no sign of af but I'm throwing in the towel for this month . I think my body is just messing me around Angry i think ill get the expensive undies out garenteed to turn up then Wink luck to anyone still to test Smile

Wildwaterfalls · 10/08/2011 09:21

Really sorry to hear about AF figaro and havealittle! Really frustrating. Keeping my fingers crossed for you for next month.

Good luck to everyone testing soon.

1sttimetryer · 10/08/2011 06:35

Sorry to see AF got you fig and have, really hope next month is your month.
Hi carried, yea i think we could well have spoken on another thread, yes its our first baby wer trying for. we have been trying about 6months, but only had 2 AF's in that time!

Thank you mumty , my cycles are really irregular,ive had one thats been 42 days and another 48, this time i am on cd65, and im due my AF on the 16th (I only know this because i have been recording my temp on fertility friend else by now i would be getting really worried, ff says i ov'd last tue) Im hoping that something messed up my ovulation this time as this is the longest cycle i have had so far.
Well i plan to test after my AF doesnt turn up (because of course it wont!!) but in reality i bet i will do a test on sunday Grin

Good luck to those testing in the next few days

havealittlefaithbaby · 10/08/2011 06:28

Cheers.

Figaro82 · 10/08/2011 06:27

havealittlefaithbaby · 10/08/2011 06:20

Af here too. Ow :(

MumptyDumpty · 10/08/2011 00:03

Really sorry to hear that AF got you monty and figaro I will cross my finger for you that you for your next cycle >

Good luck to everyone planning on testing in the morning Smile

Carried so glad that it all went ok at the dentist. Fx that it doesn't get darker, and that it'll all be ok... I am sure that it will be

1sttimer well come to the thread. How long are your cycles? And when are you planning to test. AF is due on 14th and due to previous heartache caused by testing early, I will wait until then to test.

mammy don't you just love men, and how simple things are for them. Or how sumple they are in general Wink Ideally DP would have me wait 2 weeks after AF due before testing..... Yeah alright like that's likely to happen!

Havealittle glad you are getting some answers, and hopefully they can do something to help with that x

I am still feeling rather sick, however I think that is a lot do do with current affairs and everyday stress. I feel like AF may be on her way, as very spotty, keep getting twinges, and very moody. I really hope I am wrong, but I am not feeling as positive as I was last week

Best wishes to you all x

carriedababi · 09/08/2011 20:40

ah sorry to hear that fig.

really hope it happens for you next month.

mammy,oh yeah don;t you just love the male point of view! that the sort of thing my dh would say, he tends to see things in black and white.

hi 1st time tryer, i think i spoke to you on another thread.
i think we spoke about our long cycles!

how long have you been trying for? and i take it, its your first baby your trying for?

thanks for all the concern about dds teeth, its really kind of you all to be so uncerstanding, i really went into a proper melt down at the weekendBlush
but i feel much minch calmer today, trying to tell myself its happend now so feeling bad about it won;t do any good.
and it wasn't worse case sceanario.
hopefully it will get no worse.

mammyemcbe · 09/08/2011 20:35

so sorry figaro , fingers crossed for you next month

havealittlefaithbaby · 09/08/2011 20:21

I'm still waiting....

Figaro82 · 09/08/2011 20:11

Well AF just turned up. I'm going to have a little cry :).

Good luck to the rest of you ladies xx

mammyemcbe · 09/08/2011 18:00

Good luck to everyone testing tomorrow Grin still no AF here but I'm holding out testing til Friday ifs there's still no sign . My dh reckons it's wasting money and if I am i am . Got to love a male point of view Angry

1sttimetryer · 09/08/2011 17:56

Is it too late for me to join? I have to test in a weeks time and im so bored of waiting already!! i have stupidly long cycles so its taken forever to get here, last week of waiting is going to be torture!! Is it wrong to test just a few days early?! Grin
Sorry to hear about your dds tooth carried hopefully it wont get any worse.
Congratulations to the couple of BFP's
Sorry to all the ones AF got and good luck to all the ones testing in the next few days

Im really hoping and praying that i am pregnant this time as i dont know if i can face waiting so long to ovulate every month its depressing!!!
Take care :)
