TWW begins today, anyone want to join me?

I think my 2WW begins today. We haven't been properly tracking ovulation, came off the pill 4 months ago and cycles have settled into 33 days so I'm basing dates and ovulation on that. If I'm right ovulation would be today.

I'm not sure we have DTD enough but hoping so, we DTD Wednesday, Thursday and today so fingers crossed.

Anyone else in a similar boat?

I'm 31 and TTC number 1.

Also BFP here :( however it wasn't first pee of the day and i am 12DPO so holding out hope!

Sunshinesaz86 · 31/05/2017 10:10

Sorry for all the BFN's I had one also yesterday even 10dpo though I was supppsed to be waiting until today. (Couldn't help myself 😂🙈)

The only odd thing I've had yesterday am today was browny cm and pinky cm today which is unusual for ne as I never spot or anything wrote AF which is due in 2 days however I feel it may just come early.

Debating whether to pick up one more test or just hold out till Friday and see if AF shows which I definitely think she will. Stupid tww!!

SallySunbeams · 31/05/2017 08:06

Good luck everyone for next time, it's just one more BFN out the way before the BFPs start rolling in!

And congrats to all those that got their BFPs this month Cake

Chipsahoy · 31/05/2017 07:34

BFN here too. Period due today, so it should at least be a faint positive.

Oh well, onwards and upwards I guess. Enjoy Spain.

And yes to maternity pay, definitely a bright side.

Good luck for a June BFP.

OvariesForgotHerPassword · 31/05/2017 06:48

Aww Becky :(

Very very BFN here too. I'm looking on the bright side, next month I'll qualify for maternity pay ;)

OhMyGodBecky · 31/05/2017 06:17

There we are then, another BFN with the first wee of the day with a FRER. I think it's safe to say I just didn't ovulate this month.

I am actually ok about it now, it has kind of slowly dawned on me so it's. not made me as sad as I thought it would. I had a bit of a cry last night and thought I may as well test today once and for all.

On the plus side, I have a week in Spain booked for the end of the month so will be free to do my best at causing a sangria drought! 😋🍷

OhMyGodBecky · 30/05/2017 20:37

I am testing one more time tomorrow, with the 2nd of my FRER and then moving on. I just did the first one out the box and surprise surprise BFN.

mayoli · 30/05/2017 18:48

Thanks for the heads up @Becky, I planned to go to Boots first thing tomorrow (8:30am, yikes) to pick up some FRER so yay!
Testing tomorrow, I'll be 12DPO. Told myself I'd wait until this Saturday but I just can't!

Eminybob · 30/05/2017 18:06

Haha I admit I went looking for cheapie tests in the pound shop today. Luckily they didn't have any in otherwise I would have POAS today!

OhMyGodBecky · 30/05/2017 17:33

Not that I want to encourage bad habits, but FRER are but one get one free in Boots at the mo...

Eminybob · 30/05/2017 14:45

I'm about half way through 2ww, due to test on Sunday.
Coming up to a year ttc no 2 and trying to chill out a bit the last couple of months, I've ditched the OPKs and am definately not going to test until I'm late.
So not exactly sure when I ovulated, but I had cramps and ewcm about a week ago.

I've had a couple of small cramps today, and have been mega tired the last couple of days (although that could be down to having a toddler!)
Weirdest thing though is I have been just so hot the last week or so, even when the weather hasn't been. Seem constantly red and sweaty even in the car with the air con on full whack. No idea if this is a symptom or not Confused

Also, woken up the last 2 mornings feeling sick, but it's not like I remember morning sickness with DS.

mayoli · 30/05/2017 14:23

@ovaries it shouldn't show up until at least 10DPO i don't think, and that's early!

Hello @chipsahoy :) Hope AF doesn't show up tomorrow

Chipsahoy · 30/05/2017 14:20

Can I join in? I'm not sure of the lingo, but period is due tomorrow, my cycles are usually around 28days. So far I have a little cramping, no spotting after sex, which I normally get the day before a period, boobs aren't sore like normal. So no idea what any of that means.

We only managed to do the deed once few days before ovulation and on ovulation day. Not sure when to test? I already have two children, so you'd think I'd know by now. Youngest is six, I seem to have forgotten everything.

OvariesForgotHerPassword · 30/05/2017 12:52

BFN today at either 8dpo or 10dpo. It would show up by now wouldn't it?

OhMyGodBecky · 30/05/2017 11:03

CD33

OhMyGodBecky · 30/05/2017 11:03

Usually 28 days bang every month, occasionally stretches to 29 but that maybe once or twice a year. I'm 5 days late now and my period only lasts 4 days in total... I think I'll do the other FRRR tomorrow now that I've bought it anyway and then try and forget it for a week.

At what point would you visit the Dr? Because with no period and no BFP there is definitely something up...

Tweetypie19 · 30/05/2017 08:50

Definitely a positive. You'll find if you test in a couple of days the line will be stronger. Very exciting for you!! X

Sunshinesaz86 · 30/05/2017 08:23

Oh no ohno that's so annoying. Do you usually have regular cycles? What CD are you? X x

OhMyGodBecky · 30/05/2017 06:44

I accidentally bought FR rapid result yesterday - just tested and it's still negative but I still don't have my period. This is actual torture!

ADiane · 29/05/2017 20:51

Hi ladies, I'm waiting too. I tested today with a clear blue digital 9dpo and got a BFN. Already feel pre menstrual and I'm not feeling hopeful about this cycle for some reason. I'm hoping against hope I've just tested too early and I may still be in with a chance but who knows. Good luck everyone.

Triskaidekaphilia · 29/05/2017 20:16

Yeah I'm trying not to get my hopes up but it's not over til the red lady sings!...

And you never know, plenty of people are symptomless til way after a positive test, and then there are those of us who think they see all sorts of symptoms and sadly it turns out to be nothing.

Sunshinesaz86 · 29/05/2017 19:54

Yes I have a cat and she used to curl right up against my bump when I was pg with DS.

I do hope it's just too early to show trisk limbo land is just no fun!

Well after my night out i was so so sick this afternoon. I cannot remember the last time I was sick the day after booze.
I am also so far symptomless so AF due Fri/Sat but definitely think I'm already out. This tww has been straight forward as nothing to even try and spot 😂

Triskaidekaphilia · 29/05/2017 19:37

Dammit phone, twice? PEE, obvs Hmm

Triskaidekaphilia · 29/05/2017 19:36

*per not per...

Triskaidekaphilia · 29/05/2017 19:36

Sunshinesaz86 yes i heard that about cats so it became part of my symptom spotting! Both cats came into the bathroom and sat in there while I was waiting for the test to show, I don't know if they knew I was anxious or if they just wondered why they smelled per Grin. And Fluffycat is still cuddling up to my belly, maybe he's just reminding me that he's already my baby!
