Pull up a chair for the 2ww...

writer did you get any symptoms before your BFP???

Ginger - me and my hubby only DTD 3 over the space of a week during my fertile window and afterwards I was kicking myself because I felt like we hadn't done enough. However, we still got a BFP so hope is not lost!!!

It only takes one time after all....

Good luck to everyone x x

I've asked my husband to hide the OPKs and only let me test on the 14th... same as I do with the chocolates

will feel rotten when I cave before the 14th now Brilliant, I'm gonna have to deliberately put any tests I stumble across out in the car (I live 4 floors up in a flat - aint no way I'm going all the way down to the car prior to a pee), and avoid all shops between now and then!

PS, I currently have a head cold, so you might wanna go and wash your hands pronto. Just realised when I put my nurse head back on!

Yes I will commit to it!!

No POAS until 14th August!

Ginger, I'll commit to not testing until the 14th if you do it with me, shall we spit on it?

nurse, that sounds very promising!!! everytime i pee i secretly hope there will be some spotting lol!

hope this month is your lucky month!!!! maybe I will join you and not test until 14th (and hope AF doesn't show up before that)

Ladies, mind if I join you? Have been TTC for almost a year now, and am currently on CD24 of 30-32 (with the odd 40 day cycle, just to wreck my head). Live apart from mr nurse, so timing is hit and miss, depending on whether or not we're together.

BUT...had some spotting this morning, which I had totally written off until a lovely lady on another thread got me thinking it might be too early for AF spotting, so here I am, waiting. Again. Oh the joys.

On the upside, I haven't imagined any symptoms this month, unlike previous months, where I had every early preggers symptom going. So who knows. Am gonna try and hold off testing until at least 14th, but we'll see how that goes...

ginger I'm sure five times is enough if it's meant to be, I'm not even at the POAS stage yet so who knows what will happen

try hold off testing for a few more days and sending you lots of baby dust

Snoozy now I'm feeling like we didn't do enough - and I was exhausted from DTD 5 times during my fertile period :P

I was too weak and POAS today... even though I'm still at least 7 days before AF... so not sure what I was expected, but not surprisingly got a BFN...

I am however getting light cramping on and off throughout the day, though I'm not sure whether I'm just symptom-spotting!!!

haha thankyou keden and writer we figured whilst we didn't really know my cycle that well we should just get to it but also I'm visiting family tomorrow so we will be apart for a few days but fingers crossed anyway!!

Bloody hell Snoozy!!!!!!!!!!

Dh and I have dtd on cd 6,7,8,9,10,11,13,14

Wow! That's really impressive. And welcome aboard too

hi all, can I join too?

am now on the 2ww also (I think )
been on the implant for many years and this is my first cycle of TTC #1
very excited but a little unsure as to ovulation day because when I was on the implant I didn't have periods so couldn't chart cycles and this is my first cycle now.

I've gone of regular average dates and that would make my ovulation day 4th August so I would be 1dpo now...I had a small amount of EWCM on cd 11 and cd 12...not really sure what that means though and Dh and I have dtd on cd 6,7,8,9,10,11,13,14 but think we'll have a break tonight

congratulations to those who did get their bfps

5DPO....no symptoms yet, though there has been the occasional breast-twinge here and there. Not sure if it means anything though. Going to try and hold off POAS until at least the 1st day of AF (August 14).

Currently on CD15, 6po. Definitely know I ov'd on the 30th as I had ewcm that turned watery, mittelschmerz (very left-sided) then it changed to the thicker creamy stuff from Thursday.

Been getting a lot of cramping since Saturday night, so on impulse I poa-opk-s this morning (just one of the cheapy opk sticks I bought off Amazon). This far post-ov I'd expect it to be negative - but there was a faint line.

Trying not to read too much into it, as the symptoms of early pg are very hard to tell from the ones I get leading up to AF, but with all my pregnancies I pretty much knew almost straight away. I'm not sure if I trust my body enough to tell me what's going on after 4 mc though. Think I may be poas on Friday though, and wondering if I'll get my BFP? ~fingers tightly crossed~

Hello ladies...
I'm on cycle 2 of TTC my first.

I don't know when I ovulated (used the Boots tests but didn't get one single positive result), or IF I ovulated, but I can't imagine why I wouldn't have? I don't think I have PCOS and my cycles are quite regular (normally between 26-28 days). I didn't really feel ovulation pains this month though, and I normally do. DTD quite a few times when I should have ovulated.

Now about 5-7 DPO (who knows), and don't really have any symptoms. I'm not very confident this is the month, but still hoping!!!

Also, if I don't get pregnant this month, I think I can only try one more month and then have to have a "break" for 4-5 months, because my brother is getting married abroad next year, and I have to be able to go to his wedding...

Don't doubt it for a second, sugary tea! Actually, I'm feeling lucky for a September BFP, don't know why, but I'm not holding out a lot of hope just yet. Probably because my cm is still not quite as eggwhitey since mc as it used to be (doing serious grapefruiting!), but I can cross all my digits for you this month whilst I'm pretending not to care!

opps - thats TTC#1

Hi all! also on the 2ww... came off the minipill on the 24th June so still a bit unsure of cycle (though had always been pretty regular 28 day before the pill)... supposedly could poas on the 10th Aug... but might try and hold off till the 14th (because of uncertainty about cycle).... haha... lets see if I have the will power eh?!!

so...
