Another 2ww thread!!!!!

Fx for you fruity.

Might do today. Possibly going to pick one up when I pop out this morning. Still late but don't want to tempt fate.

Hello all, welcome to those who have recently joined.

Mooley- we are cycle buddies! What cd are you? I'm on cd 7, usually ov around cd 15.

The AF from hell has finally finished and temps have finally dropped to below last cycles coverline. Our plan of action is the same as yours- dtd eod and everyday over ov.

This WILL be our month.

Anyone testing today?

I'm not a headache person really. I get them very infrequently. I'm just laid on the sofa with my blanket and book. I don't want to get excited but at the same time I do lol

Ooh exciting fruity! Fx for you.

I convinced myself this afternoon that I was definitely pg as I felt completely knackered, had some cramps and a metallic taste in my mouth. Now think I was imagining it all. Grr... 5 days to go.

Ooh I'm one day late lol. According to my app, which I swear by, I've only had one cycle last more than 27 days and that was the month I was a week late and allowed myself to get excited. I'm in day 28 now. Not going to test till after the weekend as there's time for this to change yet. I'm bloody exhausted and have a headache but think that's more down to late working this week. Keeping calm and carrying on for now.

Hi all thanks for the kind welcome :) no symptoms at all here except bloaty/windy tummy! Also ,am fighting a cold/flu thing which arrived yday just in time for my daughters 3rd birthday party on Saturday
I have to pick up mil from station today as she's staying & out for dinner tonight. I just want to lay in bed all day & wallow :(

Oooops sorry for me me me rant!!

Forty winks -the cramping could be implantation?? Also the smell thing is really interesting! You Never know until you test

I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm in my 2ww. Had mild cramping feeling at about 6/7 DPO, been feeling a bit off. Seem to be super sensitive to smells the last few days and just feel a bit 'off' with some lightheadedness etc. Only our first time TTC though so I'm not overly hopeful and think I might be be reading to much into my 'symptoms'! AF not due until 30th so almost another week to wait and see :(

AF not here yet but think I might wait a day or two to test. I want to be late proper lol. I'm feeling particularly emotional this month but don't know if it's PMS kicking in eventually or something else. Not going to tempt fate just yet.

Congrats on your engagement and fx for today! Are you going to take a test?

I'm joining this one again.

AF due tomorrow. Have felt PMS this month which is the first time since coming off the pill. No period symptoms at all so no sore boobs which I always get. I'm tired. It's day 26 of cycle and I average 27 so well see how tomorrow goes.
I've relaxed about OPKs and all that stuff just lately. I was getting obsessive!

We are engaged now so that's nice :) I'd just love this month to be it but I just don't know yet. We shall see tomorrow!

My boobs hurt today, right at the top. They've just started tingling and hurting a little, but like everything else this could be doen to god knows how mnay other things!
Got my babymad delivery too of OPKs, ulta early tests and a BBT. Trying very hard not to whip our a HPT!

Congrats Bonbon! And hello alien

My 2ww feels like it's lasting forever. Have felt a bit nauseous today but I think it's probably more about the amount of cake I'm eating than anything more exciting. Going to try to hold out til Sunday before taking a test. Have in laws staying from tomorrow so at least a bit of a distraction

Can I join please ?:) I'm ttc no.2 and am part of the trial for digital cbfm. I had the Mirena coil removed in July this year. this is the first cycle of using the monitor and it recorded peak fertility. So to cut a long story short, I'm now embarking on the 2ww. I have been getting shooting pains since the peak was showing. Guessing they were/are ovulation pains. The peak was on Saturday.

Yay! Huge congrats Bonbon!

Hey everyone, just wanted to update that I got a darker line at 5dpo and I got it confirmed by the doctor today. I am pregnant with number 2, due in June!

Thank you ScaryMartian xx

Hi Sebysmamy. Maybe try testing agin with a more sensitive test? Something like a frer or superdrugs own? Good luck.

Hi- hope you don't mind me commenting but I think I'm going crazy & need some advice! TTC DC2, with the 1st wasn't even trying & got pg right away this time I'm defo TTC and it's the 1st month so looking for those symptoms that might indicate BFP but I tested 9dpo & today, 11dpo with CB digital & BFN! Utterly confused!! My cycles are all over, I can go months at a time with no AF but August AF was present so went for it & according to an app I conceived 12th Sept, if indeed I did, so am I in fact testing too early?

So far I feel
*sensitive nips
*i can smell my neighbours smoking!

• I cried at stupid stuff (defo not like me) *retched @ the squelching of Mayo bring scooped from the jar!!

But can all these be in my head! With my 1st I was over 10 wks gone when I found out I was pg but I thought I had the flu then! ??

I feel exactely the same 59sound :(
Fingres crossed x

Morning ladies, hope you're all feeling ok. Just wanted to say thank you for the advice on which tests to buy. Am holding off for now but only a few days to go - eek. Have not one symptom really so not holding out much hope. Hey ho...

Oh god, didn't realise how long that was.

Hello all.

Mooley sorry the witch got you. Next month WILL be our month.

Def try temping baffers, it takes a lot of the guess work away once you get the hang of it.

Whit- there are a lot of good books re: temping. I swear by Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. Explains it all there. Or I think wharm linked another up thread somewhere.
Or you can just Google 'basal body temperature charting' and I'm sure you will get all the info you need but it's basically taking your temp every morning when you wake up, before you've even moved. The theory is that your temps are on the low end of the chart before you ov, then once you ov they jump up to the higher end of the chart where they stay until the day of AF when they drop or if you are pg they remain high all the way through. Temps are no good for predicting ov- that's where looking at cm and opks are good but they do tell you when you have o'd which is handy when you want to rest from dtd!

Hellohello, I think you can test as early as 4 days before with a frer? Not sure but maybe try Weds/Thursday?

I am going to try and refrain from testing until AF really is late. Not sure my head or heart can deal with another 'bfp' only for AF to show up anyway.

I am experiencing the mother of all periods and was floored by the cramping yesterday, worse than I've ever had. Nice way to ram home the 'not pregnant'!

I've been coping by eating chocolate (obvs) and forming a plan for increasing ewcm next cycle. I'm basically going to drink grapefruit juice until it comes out of my ears.

I have been wondering also, if I did have a chemical pregnancy (I'll never know for sure) does anyone know if this will have an effect on my next cycle or is it basically just business as normal?
