Hi, just starting my 2 week wait and wondering who else is too and how you stop your mind from going crazy and not thinking of anything else... 😬😅😂

I need to join this thread as I'm also in the 2ww and want to obsess over symptoms 😂. I'm only 3dpo so unlikely to have anything yet. Do you count ov as the day you got a positive opk as obviously LH surges before actual ov? Everything feels tight today - bra & skirt. Also my nipples (especially my right one?!) are sore!!

Hayleylou89 · 24/09/2019 10:03

@LillianFullStop DH is probably secretly excited just like u... cant wait to see the digital :) x

claireb707 · 24/09/2019 09:38

Definitely a line there 👶🏻👶🏻

Emae26 · 24/09/2019 08:57

@LillianFullStop I can definitely see a line!

Thank you! I'll post back when I get the digital - I don't think DH will be convinced otherwise!

Grainedesesame · 24/09/2019 08:33

@LillianFullStop yessss I think a line is a line, no matter if it's faint Wink

Sophiiee93 · 24/09/2019 08:16

@LillianFullStop I defiantly see a line ☺️

LillianFullStop · 24/09/2019 08:12

I'm 12dpo today by my dates - showed DH... he can see the line but dubious as to why it's so faint so isn't getting too excited yet lol

Hayleylou89 · 24/09/2019 08:04

@LillianFullStop i see something for u definitely... yes get urself a digital and let us know :) ... how many dpo are you now? X

LillianFullStop · 24/09/2019 07:48

@Hayleylou89 8dpo is still very early you could still be in!

FMU and I think there's something there but very faint! I'm going to pick up a CB Digital today!

I caved and tested this morning mainly because im in poland and the tests here are so so cheap, but BFN for me, im only 8 DPO but starting to think my pains are just AF although its not due until 1st october but i feel crampy and moody but more so like i feel right before AF 🙄 strange thing is i bd'd last night and after it i had the pinky blood again not much atall but how wierd after having it on friday too ... dont know whats going on and one else had this?

emojisarentwords · 24/09/2019 07:07

@SugarPlumRoar I normally start 10dpo unless I can't absolutely help myself which happens far too much. And I always think the optimum time to test is the day before AF is due.

emojisarentwords · 24/09/2019 07:04

@Grainedesesame looking at your chart I would test on the 29th - the day before AF is due - same as me! Although shamefully I tested yesterday as I just couldn't help myself and it was the biggest fattest negative I've ever seen in my life. Have you decided which day you're going to start testing?

@GlennRheeismyfavourite I feel the same way, will be really surprised if I've caught this cycle! When are you planning to test?

SugarPlumRoar · 23/09/2019 22:20

I'm due on the 29th I think although my cycles have been as short as 26 and as long as 34 and according to my OPK and clearblue monitor I ovulated on Wednesday what is the earliest you think I could test?

GlennRheeismyfavourite · 23/09/2019 19:35

Sorry for those who are disappointed - keeping 🤞for you all. I had a bit of pinkish spotting today. Desperately hoping that it might be an implantation bleed but in my heart I know it's not. I feel very periody if that makes sense. I really thought this month might be the month. It's so hard getting hopes up and so frustrating to have to wait again now until we can try again

Lauraliverpool · 23/09/2019 17:13

@Hayleylou89 been trying since July, ahh are you? 😁 Wow those tests sound ace, I'd be definitely be bringing lots home to use! Trying to not get down about it, got a 3yr old keeps me busy, thinking of starting a new little venture making little pieces of jewellery and doing a online course. X

Hayleylou89 · 23/09/2019 16:28

@Lauraliverpool how long have you been trying?
Im from liverpool too 🙈 try not to get down over it we are on a journey and it exciting plus we are all there for eachother (im still optimistic as it only my forst month ttc) .... im away at the moment and just found a chemist that does tests that claim to pick up HCG 6 days after fertilisation and they are £10 online but in poland they work out only £2!! Only got one to test for tomorrow incase i get a BFP as im 8 day dpo from tomorrow so it should pick it up if i am but if its a bfn im going to by lots of these tests and take them home for future use :) x

Lauraliverpool · 23/09/2019 15:55

@Hayleylou89 I'm scared of being disappointed and seeing bfn again. X

LillianFullStop · 23/09/2019 15:20

@Grainedesesame I would wait until 11dpo and with FMU. I'm at 11dpo and still seems inconsistent throughout the day so I'm going to try again tomorrow morning with my second FRER

Grainedesesame · 23/09/2019 14:10

@Yogisunflower91 you probably have the right approach but it required lots of self discipline! I guess this is what make ttc so exciting so we might as well embrace it

Yogisunflower91 · 23/09/2019 14:05

@Grainedesesame thank you! Just a few more days to wait. It's taking my everything to wait until the weekend. I'm just telling myself I don't want to be disappointed by testing early

Grainedesesame · 23/09/2019 14:02

Can I ask you when do you think is the best time for testing? I'm very regular with my period and always on 27 days cycle (occasionally 28) :) thanks

2 week wait...
Grainedesesame · 23/09/2019 13:59

Welcome @Yogisunflower91 no long to wait for you. A few days will fly by before some good news I hope

Yogisunflower91 · 23/09/2019 13:56

Hi everyone
May I join?
I'm in my TWW AF due 28th September
I don't have any symptoms yet, noticed a few pains last night in my right side but nothing substantial that I could definitely put down to pregnancy (I think).
This is our first month TTC.
Wishing you all the best with your journeys

Raizelrea · 23/09/2019 13:48

@Hollielouise I'd probably try to hold off till at least 9 DPO - supposedly the earliest implantation happens is 6 DPO and then it takes another 2 days or so for you HCG levels to be high enough for the test to pick it up. On the bright side if you're 4DPO you're already 1/3 of the way through!
