1DPO - Anyone want to join for the 2WW?

434 replies

Hello! First month TTC. Currently 1DPO, no symptoms as of yet, but already feeling stressed at the thought of not knowing if we were successful for two more weeks! Worried we didn't BD enough, we did every other day during the fertile window including day before O. Anyone got any advice or just want to join in the conversation to get us through the wait?

Thanks @IzzT! First cycle of TTC #1 so to say I'm shocked is an understatement. Northampton location :). How are you doing?? So far I'm just dizzy and feel a bit sick but that's more related to the positive test than the pregnancy I think Confused

Hi ladies, I was utterly convinced that AF was on the way. Had all my usual PMS symptoms, but then had a dizzy episode last night which was odd. Tested this morning on FRER (cd29) 😳. Can't quite believe it. Good luck to all for this month!

@Daisyrobin123 Glad to hear things are going well! I've heard that not getting too full and not getting hungry can be a good trick for nausea. So eating small amounts frequently? Hoping the time goes quickly for you to get to your appointment and for the nausea stage to pass 😊

Daisyrobin123 · 17/05/2021 18:58

Hi ladies, been thinking about you all. Thank you for checking in! @IzzT @dogmom0930 @JuniperAndTonic

I'm doing ok, almost 7 weeks now. Spent the first few weeks feeling very anxious but trying to stay positive. Booked my first MW appointment but got a while to wait - I'll be 10+2 when that comes around. Feeling nauseous constantly but thankfully haven't been sick since since week 4. Gone off some foods, very bloated but feeling very grateful 🥰

Good luck for this upcoming cycle girls! Hopefully some BFPs soon! Good luck for your scan Izzy (btw had some time off MN so only just seen your DM - I'll reply!!)

dogmom0930 · 16/05/2021 14:28

I'm on CD 13 and just entered my FW yesterday. Will start testing with OPK 2x a day today. It's our 2 year anniversary on Tuesday, so FW fell at a fun time this month 😊❤️

One day at a time @IzzT! Glad things are well so far!

Fingers crossed for your 2ww @K8Tee and @JuniperAndTonic!

Welcome @Howlplant! Fingers crossed for you too! The symptom spotting can be so consuming! It's so hard NOT to feel every little thing. Hoping that they're all good signs for you!

Hope you can get back soon enough to catch O @80sPadme!

JuniperAndTonic · 16/05/2021 06:35

@IzzT glad you’re doing well! Exciting times, hope everything goes well at your scan and gives you some reassurance!

Hope you’re all having a great weekend!

@K8Tee

I cant type lol. I meant to say that my earblue opk this morning was a flashing smily and I did an Internet cheapie opk tonight which was positive. Will see what clearblue says in the morning but looks like early ovulation this month x
Eeeeek exciting @K8Tee!!!!

All the best for your sxan @IzzT, so exciting for you.

Cd10 here, solid smily Rhos morning on clearblue but positive on my Internet cheapie opk so looks like ov might be a bit earlier this month. X

@IzzT

Hello everyone! Doing well, coming up on 6 weeks. Still feel very nervous at every twinge or cramp. Got a scan at the end of next week so hopefully that will be reassuring!

How is everyone else doing? @dogmom0930 @JuniperAndTonic @Daisyrobin123 @80sPadme @K8Tee

All good here @IzzT Just annoyed I'm away this weekend back on my most fertile days 🙄

Hi everyone, sorry for being AWOL, busy at work and not much to say really!
I’m cycle day 12 now and got a positive OPK today! Been DTD every other day since CD8 and will probably try and DTD again tomorrow and Monday to hopefully catch ovulation! And then the two week wait begins again! Fingers crossed for us all this month! @K8Tee @dogmom0930 @IzzT @Daisyrobin123 @Tangfastic91 and everyone else hope you’re all getting on okay!

@K8Tee

Hey ladies. Just dropping on to say Hi. CD9 here. I'm using the clearblue opks this month again. Baby dust to you all x
Hi lovely, I'm using same this month to see what happens but due to ov next Sunday and I'm away for work so probably won't be this month. If I conceive next month then baby will be due around our anniversary so that would be nice
Howlplant · 15/05/2021 14:50

Hi everyone! Hope it's OK to jump in! I'm first time and first cycle TTC, not telling friends or family so desperately wanted to chat with people about this and found these threads! I'm 8DPO having symptoms I never usually get between Ovulation and AF. Mild to moderate cramping daily, headaches at first that wouldn't go away, bloated and gassy first 6DPO and still bloated now, alot of cm though that's calming down a bit now. Never thought I'd be a symptoms checker but I can't help feel a bit obsessive as I'm 33 so would be well into 34 if I concieve this year. Dying to do a test but know its too soon, I'm amazed some can be so patient!

dogmom0930 · 15/05/2021 13:59

Hey there! CD 11 for me today! Using the Easy at home strips and PreMom app this month. Hoping it gives me a better idea of how long I have for peak.

My sister got married yesterday! An exhausting and fun start to the weekend for me! Hope you all are having a good month of May so far 😊 Baby dust to all!

Good luck to you too @K8Tee and @Tangfastic91! How are you doing @IzzT and @Daisyrobin123?

Hey ladies, how is everyone getting on? I'm 6DPO and feeling normal. I don't think I'll be able to symptom spot as I get most things with PMS anyway! Planning to test Sunday Grin

Unknown2010 · 10/05/2021 09:38

Sorry was meant to say milky white discharge

Unknown2010 · 10/05/2021 09:37

taytay2020 · 10/05/2021 09:33

CD1 for me today and I've got my new premom app all set up ready for obsessive opks next week! Thanks again for the tip @IzzT. My cycle has been all over the place since I stopped taking cerazette in Jan. Hopefully see you all in the May TTC chat x

@dogmom0930

How are you doing *@80sPadme*?
BFN on a clear blue as only had those left in shop, spotting and cramping now so think I had a vvvvvv slight CP maybe, my boobs have defo grown a size though as DP mentioned it today and I can fit my boobs in my bras 🙄. I am going to wait out may I think I I have a super stressful workload this month and then try again in June maybe. I don't want to become obsessed with it. We didn't even actively try this month and in the tww I have been crazy
