I'm in the 2ww again, and hoping this might be the one. I ordered some preseed, but it didn't arrive until right at the end of my fertile window, so only used it a couple of times but hoping it'll help!

Anyone care to join me with the madness, impatience and symptom spotting?

@LittleBirdBlues
No sign of AF yet, I have a feeling she’s coming soon. And I’m not sure when, my last cycle she came 11 days after ovulation, so could be tomorrow or Tuesday, but my last cycle was 31 days long (because of the pill) so if I go by 31 days then I should wait until the 24th Nov :/ I hate the waiting around. Done my first IC this month today and got bfn as expected

@BLM18 that sucks, I'm sorry! I hope it happens next month x

@gem173 any sign of af yet? When are you due?

LittleBirdBlues · 19/11/2017 17:46

@karategirl I think mine is 24th July but I keep mixing it up, could be 25th too! First day of last period was 16th October with a 29 day cycle.

I am getting really excited now. Can't quite imagine going to work tomorrow and keeping it all quiet, when I've spent the weekend thinking of nothing else.

I was worried about DH reaction at first but he has been great and confident that we'll be able to deal with three. WHUAAAHAHA. Grin

Gem173 · 19/11/2017 17:28

How’s everyone doing? X

Gem173 · 19/11/2017 12:58

@BLM18 same here! Roast sounds yummy hope it’s nice!! X

BLM18 · 19/11/2017 12:04

@Gem173 my fingers are crossed for you hope AF stays away!!!! I am going for a nice roast that will cheer me up! X

Gem173 · 19/11/2017 10:21

@BLM oh that sucks :( treat yourself today, I know I would be straight out there getting myself a McDonald’s breakfast 😂 I know I feel like everything’s been a waste of af shows up. But this month I have hardly used anything, like 5 opks and just left it didn’t want to stress too much. AF hasn’t shown up yet, I’ve been having cramps all night tho so much that I couldn’t sleep and had to keep checking to see if she has arrived. So maybe she will arrive today? Anyway I guess we will see, il keep you updated! X

BandhaAid · 19/11/2017 08:40

I've arrived in 2ww earlier than expected. According to FF, I ovulated on cd12 which is about 4 days early.

BLM18 · 19/11/2017 08:21

@Gem173. I am out. AF showed up this morning as predicted. What a waste of a month doing tests reading with forum etc. I hope you have better luck than me. It’s been 5 months now and nothing’s haooened Confused. Will look forward to good news from you x

@Littlebirdblues 26th July! Our anniversary is on 20th July, and MIL's birthday is 23rd, so it's shaping up to be a pretty busy time of the year...

When's your due date? I'm trying not to get overexcited, but it's so difficult!

Gem173 · 18/11/2017 20:56

@BLM18 still got everything crossed for you tho. I haven’t had a bleed since this morning but you never know period could come early as I’m only on cycle 2 off the pill. Could surprise me at night!! Would be so p**sed off 😂 but remember it’s not only until AF starts singing!

BLM18 · 18/11/2017 20:50

@Gem173 looks like a very good sign for bfp!!!!! How exciting. I think af will be here by tomorrow as getting bit achy. Never mind!!

LittleBirdBlues · 18/11/2017 13:16

your due date, not ours!!

Grin
LittleBirdBlues · 18/11/2017 13:15

Oh amazing @karategirl! What's our due date? See you over at the July antenatal club?

Gem173 · 18/11/2017 12:28

TMI MESSAGE WITH PIC
@BLM18 yes it does sound positive but not getting hopes up. Oh gave me crumpets for breakfast and twice now I’ve not ate them because they taste disgusting. I use to love them. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, there’s still time! Sorry if tmi, but this is how small the bleed was lol, it went from orange to light brown.

Congratulations @karategirl Smile

BLM18 · 18/11/2017 11:10

Oooo @Gem173 that sounds positive !!! Think I’m nearly out. 13dpo today and I tested and for bfn! Hmm

Picklesandpies · 18/11/2017 11:02

Congratulations karategirl! How exciting! xx

Gem173 · 18/11/2017 10:47

Congratulations! @Karategirl!!

9dpo Today I woke up with a headache (had a wine spritzer last night so doubt it’s that) and I used the toilet only to wipe and have a slight orange tint and some orange spotting on my liner. Periods not due yet. Waiting to see if it progresses into anything more.

Merrz · 18/11/2017 10:44

Aww yay, massive congrats @Karategirl

@LittleBirdBlues congratulations! I took the test at around 6:30 this morning, and didn't look at it until I went back to bed so Mr Karate and I found out at the same time. So excited! Grin

So, this happened this morning. Looks like they weren't period pains after all!

Evening ladies! Is anyone else finding themselves constantly googling ‘early pregnancy symptoms’ in the hope that they have everything doctor google says?! So far I have had a strong metallic taste in my mouth that literally started three days after TTC, I have sore boobs, spots, headaches, a constant thirst and I’m absolutely exhausted...or maybe it is just PMS?! I’m due on my period on Monday but hoping it won’t arrive! Fingers crossed!!x

Gem173 · 17/11/2017 20:46

@BLM18 I too have been worried if I’ve done the deed enough and when period is due and the symptoms I get. But I just try not to think about it. I’m trying to resist testing

BLM18 · 17/11/2017 19:48

@Gem173 we could be due same day then! I’m not feeling very hopefully but it’s all I think about. I have been on time with af to 28 days since I started ttc. Felt very stressed around ovulation due ttc so hoping the stress hasn’t mess this cycle up xx
