Does anyone else feel like the two weeks after ovulation go on forever?! I read into every slight cramp or twinge hoping I'm pg but never am. Impatient doesn't even come close. Please tell me I'm not the only one?!

Well, I suppose 'late' is a slight bend in the truth as this is our first month of trying since coming off the pill so I'm not sure what my cycle is meant to be. I've done a lot of research into my pill and its common for most women to return to a normal cycle once they come off it. So far I'm 4 days late and two bfn's! Sad

I've ordered myself some ovulating and pg sticks so hopefully that'll give me a more accurate idea of when I'm ovulating to increase my chances.

Haha bundle is af usually late? Fx for you though. Any other bfps from anyone?

bundle4me · 31/12/2012 11:38

I totally agree! I'm two days after AF was due, she hasn't arrived but poas at the weekend and got a bfn sticking two fingers back up at me! I suppose there is still hope as no sign of AF, yet!

Good luck girls. Hopefully 2013 will bring us all a bit of luck! My poor DH's testicles are going to shrivel up from all the usage if not! Ha ha!!

Thanks, ladies. So pleased I'm not alone!! I'm only 5 days into the 2 weeks and it's driving me mad already!

I'm totally there with you all! I'm 2 weeks into my 2ww! Every day drips by so frigging slowly- it is utterly agonising and I really find it difficult not to think about it all the time.

Couldn't resist POAS today and got a bfn :( I think there's still a bit of hope as no AF yet... I think the worst thought of all is not the bfn itself, but the thought of having to go through all this again next month. :(

Hang on in there everyone! One of these months, we'll get there and just think of the reward at the end :)

I'm also 1 week in, and on holiday in America. Had a lovely trip to Wal Mart today to stake out my HPT options!
