Anyone else starting 2ww

Used up my last frer and nothing.
Think that means I'm going to be trying again next month as af was due yesterday, but possibly Thursday.
The frer should pick it up by now though.
I'm fine with that, it's the not knowing. Nausea has gone, heartburn has gone, but boobs still weird.
Also have this random "heavy" feeling in my lower abdomen which isn't a prior af sign.
Getting some on/off cramping on both sides, but not as bad as usual before af, but I'm assuming it is.
Will have to wait until the end of the week to test now so more not knowing.

@kimsrobs87 I had ice cream for lunch and bbq for tea 😂

Thank you x

Thanks @TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong! All the best for the coming months

Oh @8DaysAWeek rubbish news, great positive attitude though! 🤞for your brand new cycle x

Definitely agree that it's best if you can see the positives. I'm trying to as well.
And Ive found that being a parent is a long journey so it's good to prepare for a lifetime of frustration!

I'm feeling a bit bad today. Waiting for af to arrive and a little worried about the fact that I think maybe, possibly, probably, I might have used the possibility of being pregnant as an excuse to be a fatty and I have got a significantly rounded tummy over the past week or so. Feeling a little guilty and will need to buck up if I don't want to end up unhealthy (I type this as I bake banana loaf. Well we did have bananas that were too ripe)

Just catching up on the thread! Such good news! Quite a successful thread really

Well major temp dip this morning and AF showed up this afternoon. I'm gonna look on the bright side:

1. I confirmed ovulation with my temps
2. My LP stretched from 9 days last month to 11 days this month

Positive mental attitude and all that

@Fredthespider hadn't seen that! I am. Had the feelings of a period but nothing and still not at the moment so just a waiting game I guess.

Yeah maybe I should just be patient. So hard though :( xx

@Fredthespider I see it, congrats!

@TheTittifersHaveSungTheirSong congrats to you too, it’s amazing to see all these BFPs!

@Delilah7 don’t worry, you’re not out yet, and it’s very normal for the first cycle off the pill to be a bit unpredictable, as I think technically your withdrawal bleed doesn’t really count as a period so dates may not be accurate. I know the disappointment is really hard though

It's difficult to judge when you've just come off the pill. I had to wait 5 weeks before I had a bleed. Out of interest have you seen the clearblue trial? www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_product_tests/3155082-Are-you-TTC-and-aged-18-40-Would-you-like-to-take-part-in-a-clinical-study-for-Clearblue that might be of interest to you.

Flo is saying as my period or withdrawal bleed started on Saturday 5th I could bleed this Friday xxx

@Fredthespider I'm due next Monday. That's when my normal period would be. But not sure if I need to go from my withdrawal period. This is all so confusing to me hahaha. My dates seem all messed up xx

@Delilah7 - you're due on Thurs aren't you? I'd probably do one then, or on Wed. OH wanted me to wait until Friday to test again, to see whether AF comes or not but I said I wouldn't be able to wait that long!

@Fredthespider should I wait now and see if I don't come on when I'm meant too and then test? X

Thanks for the reassurances that I'm not going mad ladies! OH has conceded and accepts that "there is a faint line, but it's not a positive as I'd expect it to be darker". I'll forgive him as he hasn't done all the crazy googling that I have where I know that a line is a line 😂

There's still time @delilah7 - you're still early at 11DPO so I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

@Frizzy1986 I know exactly what you mean, the TWW feels like forever, but I don't think I'll be able to relax until after the 20 week scan!

@KimRobs87 oh wow, I hope it happens for me like that...it's all I'm missing xxx

@KimRobs87 I'm kidding myself really. First TTC, has withdrawal bleed and just think it can happen :( xx

Reported above

Af due today until Thursday going off previous cycles.
Last cycle I had no symptoms at all so its a bit frustrating, but what will be will be. Was hoping I would have an excuse for my horrific eating habits the past week or so (a whole jar of chocolate spread in less than a week!)
Taking the little one to a trampoline park today though so guess I can burn some of that fat off 😂
Feel like there's a bit more cramping today which would tie in with af coming. Wish I was regular as clockwork. Appear to have a few at 24 days, then a few at 27.
Need to try and hold off until Thursday I think (like that's gonna happen if af doesn't show before then)
Loving all the good news though. I know the feeling of disbelief. It's funny as the 2ww feels frustrating but now it's like the 12 week wait for you lot. Now that feels so so long but then before you know it you're 37 weeks and in labour 😂

Congratulations @Fredthespider I definitely see it. I won't test until my first response tests arrive. But my tomorrow or Wednesday, you should have a nice bold line.

@KimRobs87 just gutting isn't it :( x
