Second cycle of trying...sort of. Tried at beginning of jan but missed ovulation as was at the end of dec. Period due 6th feb.

Am impatient. Want to take a test, but know its just a waste of money!

Due AF today and my tests are sitting on the table. 1st month trying and I have a 5 mth old and 2 yr old. Always feel terrified to test...like I'm afraid of the result either way.

Congratulations g0ldie, and hello to newvioand returnees! Well I am now 13 dpo, BFN again today. Lots and lots of symptoms, am logging them all carefully in case they're pms, so I can remind myself next time. But I've been pregnant 6 times before (2 dc, 4mc) and have had very early symptoms in some of them. So who knows!

HEmilySL · 21/02/2015 12:22

Totally impatient here, can I join? POAS this morning even though I'm only 10-11 dpo, and BFN. (Also yesterday and BFN then too!) AF is due on Wednesday or Thursday next week. I have had some symptoms, lots of dizziness and cramping a couple of days ago, but not sure if it is all in my head. And a sort of metallic taste that comes and goes.

Congratulations to everyone with BFPs. Smile

AF due on Saturday. I'm going to test on Friday as going to a wedding and want to test before I hit the bar just in case!
I have symptoms but I keep thinking that I must be imagining them, confirmation bias + wishful thinking! The last few days I've had constant low level nausea, I've been incredibly windy and also tired, OH had been taking the piss out of me falling asleep on the sofa like a granny. I had cramping for a few days but that's stopped now. OH and I did a lot of shagging around my ovulation date because it was valentines day and I bought some lacy knickers.
Anyway, FX and good luck to the rest of you!

So I'm back in the game! TWW cycle 2 starts today! BD'd 4 out of 5 days this week and timed everything as best as I could so here's hoping!

Congratulations those with BFPs!

mrscatmad31 · 21/02/2015 08:22

Going to test tomorrow (not due until Wednesday) but know I won't wait until then!
Hate this waiting around business :-(
my mouth tastes weird and I'm thirsty but otherwise no symptoms

SeldomAthleticFC · 20/02/2015 13:07

Oh bad luck, My. Sorry to hear that. Boo!
Congratulations, g0ldie!

MyCrazyLife · 20/02/2015 09:11

ooh congrats goldie, I'm out too Seldom!

everythingcrossed2015 · 19/02/2015 14:16

I have 2 weeks to wait now and its driving me mad already :( how do you all get thru the time wait without loosing the plot? x

MaccaPaccaismyNemesis · 19/02/2015 09:47

Congratulations Goldie!!

mrscatmad31 · 19/02/2015 07:13

Congratulations Goldies!
This time last cycle my boobs hurt but nothing this time, not sure if that's good, bad or indifferent!

g0ldie · 19/02/2015 06:48

Mrs cat thirst was a symptom for ds!

Macca I am afraid I am not the right person to offer advice on when to test - test far too early myself!

So bfp and due today! Excited but have had two mc so very aware this is very early days.
Came off the pill in jan 2014 but for life reasons couldn't start trying till jan this year!
Don't think I have the confidence to join the pregnancy board quite yet!

MaccaPaccaismyNemesis · 18/02/2015 16:32

Does anyone know how long after ovulating in a five week cycle I can test? If you can test with FRER at 10dpo on a 28 day cycle should I wait until 14dpo?

mrscatmad31 · 18/02/2015 14:47

I might get some cheap tests, don't want to waste the expensive ones but poas is so tempting!

mrscatmad31 · 18/02/2015 14:46

Ooo Smile

temperamentalamongcorvids · 18/02/2015 09:43

mrscat increased thirst is an early pg symptom for me.

BFN this morning, 10dpo. I only keep doing this because of the pile of Internet cheapies, they're too inexpensive to resist.

mrscatmad31 · 18/02/2015 08:23

Hey guys, I have a week left to wait, have been much more relaxed this cycle but still thinking about it a lot!
anyone know if increased thirst can be a sign?

Inaiya89 · 17/02/2015 21:43

I am so sorry for all the typos.

Inaiya89 · 17/02/2015 21:42

I remember the 2 weeks wait. My first time i really thought i was pregnant. Then this previous cycle i just could not wait. I drove myself crazy. I tested at 9 dpo and bfn. Teated at morning of 11 dpo and bfn. Tested evening of 11 dpo and faint faint positive. I am now 5 weeks pregnant. The best thing to do is distract yourself as mich as possible. Do not allow yourself any fown time. When i was at work i was so busy to count the dayS. But as soon as i hot home the agony of waiting drove me up the wall. Beat of lick to you ladies.

SeldomAthleticFC · 17/02/2015 21:34

Well, I'm definitely out but thank fuck! I feel like a human being again now the raging hormonal madness is over!
Today I spoke to a mate at work about my symptoms - cramps at odd times, weird sensations, peculiar discharge. Total hormonal insanity... And she says "welcome to the menopause! You've got another decade of this to look forward to!"
At 41, it's not a total surprise but I thought I had a couple of years left. I'm not too downhearted. It's still not impossible to get pg, I guess. But I don't currently feel too bad if I can't. Although that may change when the hormones kick in again in a couple of weeks...
I already have 2 DC with my exH. My OH doesn't have any, but he needs a job - after getting the sack yesterday - more than he needs kids right now!

Fingers crossed for everyone still in the 2ww.

MaccaPaccaismyNemesis · 17/02/2015 13:10

Jen that's just appalling behaviour from your 'd'h. I hope for your sake you have it out with him.

g0ldie · 17/02/2015 12:53

Thanks temper and my crazy life. It is very early. Same brand of tests. Think I just need to have patience and re-test Thursday...

Jen that's horrid to have to go alone.

temperamentalamongcorvids · 17/02/2015 10:43

jen that's awful. He should be as invested as you are in the ivf process. From what you've said so far he sounds like a pretty crap husband.

Jen2211 · 17/02/2015 08:29

Ok so was at the gynae today....alone. My husband was supposed to come with me but cancelled last minute! So fed up!
