Any 2wwers?

I'm 4dpo and testing slightly early on 5.11.16 at 12dpo because I'm going to a family party that night.

Anyone needing any company during the 2ww? It's my first cycle off the pill and I'm obviously over-analysing everything!

Hello ladies, can I join?

I'm cd 26 and will test on cd 30 (1st nov) if no af by then. It's my second cycle off the pill (and first cycle ttc) so I'm not sure how long it'll be, but based on last month ovia says af should be right around the corner. No odd symptoms only managed to dtd a couple of times during my fertile days (again, according to ovia) so fully expecting af to rear her ugly head. Time will tell!

@flapper my Dr advised that no nutrients from you go directly to baby for the first few weeks, so I'd certainly feel free to have a glass or two! Enjoy your birthday!

Good luck everyone!

Exactly MrsG I'm gonna have a glass or 2 of bubbles either way and I already know that I'm gonna crumble and get a frer. If its positive that'll be its own birthday present!

You never know Flappergirl it could be worth a go, I've seen some people get a +ive on FRER from 9dpo but then for some people nothing shows up. I'm nervous about testing at 12dpo, but the party I'm going to I will most definitely be expected to get drunk (and I want to!) so really want to confirm/rule out pregnancy!

This is my technically my first cycle as last month OH was so nervous about performing that he couldnt cum! I think I ovulated yesterday so I'm waiting now. My 30th birthday is on 5th November though and I'm a bit gutted that I can't drink because its too early to know if I'm preggo or not! I'll be gutted if Im not and spent the night of my 30th, (on a Saturday!) stone cold sober! I heard FRERs can work from 6 days before your period which would be 4th/5th for me but theres a high chance it'd be negative even if I was upduffed. Any thoughts gratefully received! x

Hi ladies. The first cycle is such an unknown isn't it. We were planning a lot in advance so I bought OPKs and have taken my temperature this month so I'm happy to know that I've ovulated.

I didn't even know if it would take my body a few months or not to even do anything! Its going to be a long week that's for sure.

FX for both of you!

Sure, I'll bite!

This is my first cycle TTC #1 and the ONLY CYCLE I am allowing myself to get obsessed. So I'm just going into full analysis mode, boob-prodding, poking my cervix, am I feeling sick? Am I feeling light-headed? Is that a milisecond of heartburn etc?

I actually don't know when I ovulated, I normally have a pretty good idea but I THINK it was early this month CD 13 or 14. So that puts me at 9 or 10 DPO. I am try to hold out until 4/11 unless I start to feel really strange beforehand.

The only unusual symptom for me is that my boobs have been sore since around ovulation, whereas they normally only start to hurt 4-5 days before my period arrives.

Time is crawling by.

Hi MrsG280516

I can join you for a day or two. AF should arrive tomorrow. If it doesn't arrive by Monday I will test. As sometimes I can be a day early or late.

It's our first month trying so I would be so surprised if I am pregnant.
I over analysed EVERYTHING. Think my head is playing games on me - last few days I felt sick but I really think it's in my head.
Don't think I have any signs really - sore back but that could be because of AF on the way.
Boobs aren't as sore as they normally would coming up to my period.

Hope the week goes by quickly for you!
