The 2ww Symptom Spotting continues....

LOL, Maybe I should be playing cervical pursuit too?
But I shower with DD she might think it odd(she is only 1, so she mightn't notice, but all the same)?

I feel left out, I haven't been playing cervical pursuit

bucky no no not at ALL offended!! I'm so sorry, I crossed posted earlier and didn't see your book offer earlier this morning! haha - yes, there's always drama in the dg household! have just come back from a mammoth meeting and only now just scoffing my lunch and catching up on MN.
and bucky EWCM and a soft cervix means you're fertile, the EWCM keeps the sperm alive until you ov...so BD away! The cervix doesn't just soften up for ovulation, it opens a few days before to let the sperm in.

pixie glad you had a lovely time, lucky you with your 2ww distractions. where did you go?

Hello Ladies!

I'm back from my holidays, it feels like I've been gone forever. I had a lovley relaxing time and it was a perfect way to pass my first week of this 2ww.

As symptoms go nothing yet, I'm 8DPO so am waiting for either signs of implantation or AF as my cycles are nuts I'm not sure how long my LP is.

Hope everyone is okay, I took a quick look on the October thread and see that huge congrtulatioins are in order for Debs and TwilightSurfer well done you two and about time TS wishing you both happy and healthy PG's

Oddly, I'm not convinced.

Has pregnancy changed Excitable's entire personality? Answers on a postcard (or posting!) plese!

excitable that's definitely a PG symptom. mine has still not returned after disappearing yesterday. which is also a pg symptom. was convinced when i went to the loo that i had the tiniest streak of brown/red in my cm...(implantation?)...could have easily been a fleck in the toilet paper tho.

SK sorry to hear about AF - but it's early days yet.

DG glad you're feeling better this morning.

ClairePO those noses sound bloody scary!

I couldn't resist - I had a quick poke around to find the old cervix this morning and I thought it felt low and soft! It's not supposed to do this - the choice is high and soft - pregnant, low and hard - not pregnant. I've got a wayward cervix, bloody hell, I can't follow ANY rules at all!

I'm choosing to believe that this means that I'm pregnant, because that's a fantasy I enjoy. I don't know where it normally is, so I don't really know if it was low or high, but it was definitely soft. There's a kind of logic in there, I guess!

Anyone care to join me in Excitable's fantasy world? Not enjoying the mystery of the tww any more. I did this last time too, thought it was quite funny in the first week and was just a mare in the second week! I JUST WANT TO KNOW!! Really, not pregnant would be just fine, I know I haven't been trying all that long, but I hate the not knowing!

sk hope you're ok today

lockets - you sure it's AF?

picknmix - looks like we'll be testing around the same time again! So now you're officially on the 2ww, any symptoms?

I have none today, other than sensitive tummy area. But that could be anything (hopefully not the bug that's doing the rounds at the office).

very weird pre-AF this month, felt really sick and bloated this morning, funny things going on below! but think she will arrive at some point over my anniversary weekend away

baby dust to those with symptoms that are looking good in the oct 2ww

fingers crossed for november BFP

xx

Well AF cought up for me so I'm out of the 2 ww for a little while will be back obsessing in another 2 weeks though.

Picknmix - I used Fertilityfriend too - worked for me - hope it works for you too!!

Deb

Glad to hear you were feeling a little better in the evening DG..

Well, my temperature has stayed up and fertilityfriend.com has put that I ovulated on Monday. Woohoo! Feels like I've actually acheived something this month (must be like when you get a on the opk!) so at least we've given it our best shot this month (bd every other day). Just have to sit back and wait!!!!

feeling better this evening thanks ladies!

bucky this is what was annoying me, along with various other dysfunctionalities. But hey ho! You can't sell 'em on eBay. BTW, in all my ewcm research it says it can turn up five days before you ov...but you're body can also have more than one attempt at ovulation, hence showing all the signs.

so I'm gearing up for another bd'ing tonight as the ubiquitous ewcm and disappearing cervix could mean my body's going for a second attempt. will still pretend that I actually ov'ed on the weekend though, and test on the 13th.

feeling bloody tired tho. this week seems to be dragging on forever, must be because i'm on a countdown!

sweet dreams everyone - especially you clairePO

I think I will have to have a go at finding my cervix now as well as I'm feeling left out. Apparently if you have had a baby it's always a bit open about 1cm dilated should help the bloody sperm swim up there then.

Well I did it text book this month, Thurs had ov pains, EWCM, Friday on CBD opks, sex every 2 days as required and still BFN. The two DCs I have got are the results of a once that month quickies (long story don't think thats all we do it) maybe thats where we are going wrong, maybe we will have one BD when I don't think I'm ovulating. When you know you can get pregnant its so frustrating when you can't.

DG - I'm with you on family I could have a whole AIBU topic to myself. Mine have been utter rubbish at support during the mc, my Mum hasn't seen her GC since beginning of August, MIL since July. We won't visit them as it's an hours drive and the DDs go mad then it's really stressful carting them around peoples houses that are v unchild friendly so DP and I spend the entire time telling them No and Don't touch. families eh pity you can't take them back and ask for an exchange? (SK is serious)

They look like noses apparently. Actually I have know idea what a cervix looks like, but I'm sure tonight I will dream of giant nose like creatures popping out from behind a lampost shouting 'I'm here' then popping out from behind a bus shelter shouting 'I'm over here now' etc

Sympton spotting, today I have had odd feelings in my tum but low down. Then I had a crunchie and they stopped, so I guess they were just choccy cravings

Speaking of which - I played a bit of Cervical Pursuit myself last night... Definitely felt like the tip of my nose and seems to tie in with my temps as was low down (well - except I have nothing to compare it to so maybe not).

DG how are you feeling this evening?

Am thinking I may be in the 2ww now and just to kick things off I have very sore nips (but I'm guessing thats just ov pains so don't really count)

What do they look like? Are they scary??

I'm surrounded by cervix chasers. I swear I'll have nightmares.

I hadn't found the am i being unreasonable thread yet - thanks dg

Sorry you're having such a tough time. We think you're great...
