2DPO The dreaded TWW begins!

Cherub250 · 09/01/2016 10:15

So I'm on 2dpo and obviously 3 days in on the tww! Is there anyone the same that wants to be my tww buddy and compare notes? A little bit of back ground info on ttc... My OH and I haven't used contraception for two years now! However we haven't been officially 'trying'! There have been months where we haven't even BD around ovulation etc so technically this is our first month "Officially" ttc! I'm pretty sure I ovulated Thursday but we BD Tuesday evening, Wednesday morning & Evening, Thursday Morning & Evening & last night lol! Grin Today my CM has gone straight back to CWCM and that's it thus far! Any advice on getting through the tww, helping implantation? etc etc?

Nine days until Ovia says I can test. I wish it was sooner! I'm feeling impatient.

Hello, can I join? I find the buses too overwhelming a task to start reading and keep track of so prefer a smaller group. I had a positive OPK Saturday and again Sunday. BD Friday and the very early hours Sunday and then not yesterday. Don't think we will manage it tonight either, do you think that's enough? Sad

That's interesting Cherub, I'll try and find the article I read today, it gave statistics of conception each month and was really interesting, it actually said the hardest part of getting pregnant is producing and keeping hold of a healthy pregnancy. Many of us will manage to get the sperm to meet egg most months but often they don't implant or the blasto dies off right after implanting before we ever know it. Having sperm meet egg is the easy bit and wether they are genetically viable is the hard bit and we have no control over that. I found this strangely comforting! I had a chemical last month so don't plan on testing early this month. I've never been patient at waiting to poas, and have stockpiled a huge amount of early tests but now I understand why it's best to wait. I wonder if I'll be saying the same next week??

Morning ladies! How are you all feeling this morning? Any symptoms from anyone?

I woke up during the night needing to go for we! I then woke up this morning desperate to go again and then 10 minutes later I needed to go again! Very odd! My Cervix this morning was Medium high, medium soft and closed! I have very CWCM which I think is a good sign for my progesterone levels to aid implantation! I've been doing some research this morning!! I found that keeping your lower tummy (uterus area) nice and warm with a hot water bottle and warm drinks will help implantation! Apparently, your feet and uterus are connected; so cold feet cold uterus lol! Hmm This is just what I've been reading! Also, EPF or Early Pregnancy Factor, if any of you would like to research that, it's an awesome read and very informative!! Let's all get those BFP's this month ey?! Grin Every little helps!!

Hey lades, we're getting quite the little group going!! FedupNowHelpPlease... did you not ovulate last month then? We're all due around the same time which is awesome! We'l have to keep each other updated! I've been into town today and have awful lower back pain now, I know it's too early for implantation but here's hoping it's a sign!

Opps, I meant AF due on the 19th.
Although Ovia and My Days say different things I'm going to go with Ovia.

bobcat85 · 10/01/2016 13:57

I've had very tender breasts since yesterday, quite unusual but not counting it as a sign yet as it's so early. I guess I'd be around 5dpo if ovulation happened on Tuesday.
AF is due around the 23rd according to the My Days app.

Brenna24 · 10/01/2016 10:33

I think I am due on the 21st too. I am having random wee niggly cramps but apart from that nothing so far.

FedUpNowPleaseHelp · 10/01/2016 10:32

Hi can I join please :)

Finally had a sustained temperature rise :) meaning I have ovulated after 65 days

Hey Leoniehelioness, I'm due on the 21st so we're basically the same!! Today is about 3dpo for me! Had this really horrible full feeling in my uterus since Friday! It's not nice, it's eased off today but it's still there and not nice! I don't have a clue what it is or what it means!! I'm so in tune with my body, I find myself getting a little tickle on my foot then googling to see if it's a symptom (joke) lol but I am pretty bad! I have lots of CWCM but that's usually normal for me at this stage!! I keep walking like I'm a ballerina hoping for implantation!! You feeling any different?? Babydust to you xx

I think I probably ovulated on Wednesday or Thursday but I'm not sure. AF is due on 20 January so I'm crossing my fingers for good news then. Keeping an eye on every twinge and possible symptom!

Brenna24 · 09/01/2016 20:00

I ov'd either monday or tuesday, so either 4 or 5 dpo. BD Friday, Sunday, Monday, Wednesday (plus some more before the friday). Drumming my fingers and waiting here.

Hey bobcat85, same I don't want to get my hopes either! Althought I have come to realise that ovulation can sometimes be a day or two out; you're more than likely in with a chance!! I've just had a weird moment... after having the usual EWCM through until Thursday, it stopped and went to watery, then EWCM showed up again yesterday! This morning it was back to CWCM! Just checked again and it seems to be small amounts of EWCM again! Whaaaat??!! I hope I have actually ovulated! Can your CM change through the day? I'm confused now lol! I'm thinking all sorts, like, what if i'm ovulating today instead and we didn't BD this morning before he went to work!! Can it just be my partner's (you know what) Shock coming back out from last night? TMI, I know sorry

Same here although I'm not sure if it'll come to anything. I think I ovulated Tuesday or Wednesday and we tried Sat, Sun, Mon and Thursday.
I'm just going to try and not get my hopes up until I know for sure.
