2WW AF due 29th March

Anyone want to join me in the 2WW?

I think I ovulated yesterday. I had been using the clearblue digital ovulation tests, but ran out of test sticks on Tuesday, which is typical! I did have EWCM Monday until yesterday and this morning it seems to have turned sticky. I also got pains in my left lower belly yesterday, so the signs all point to yesterday as ovulation day.

Unfortunately we didn't dtd yesterday as me and DH both have covid... last time we dtd was Sunday night, so I'm already at a disadvantage this month, but still hoping, and I'll still be getting excited about everything little twinge or symptom that I feel over the next 2 weeks!

This is my 4th cycle TTC, we already have DD who's 14 months. Fingers crossed and baby dust everywhere!

Hey can I join 👋🏻

My app suggest ovulation is tomorrow but I’ve have really low LH tests today that have been getting progressively lower (stark white now). I think I’ve missed ovulation yesterday. Bit annoying because I’m not sure we have DTD enough now 😩 but AF is due on 31st March. This is our first proper month TTC but I’ve been taking folic acid and waiting round for a few months we have a 2 year old.

Good Luck everyone!

@Angelselevenx 7 months exact month we got pregnant last time last year, baby didn’t make it past 18 weeks, so I’m hoping bean is a sticky one 🤞🏻❤️

@Polkadotfloral thank you ❤️

@NavigatingLife I no I can’t quite believe it! Giving all baby dust ✨

NavigatingLife · 20/03/2023 18:29

@Beck208 congrats that's so exciting!!

@Polkadotfloral well done to DH defs something to be happy about!

@Angelselevenx using ovulation tests and BBT tracking too - I caught peak test on sat afternoon as I was testing a few times a day! My BBT is typically really low (high 35) but since Friday had gone over 35 and today 36.2 which the Premom app said confirmed ovulation of yesterday but the Natural Cycles app says today!

Polkadotfloral · 20/03/2023 18:26

@Beck208 oh wow congratulations! ✨

Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 18:17

@Beck208 how long were you TTC? So exciting. Thank you 🤞🏼 x

Beck208 · 20/03/2023 18:13

@Angelselevenx thank you not quite sunk in, I hope you get yours this month 🤞🏻and yes I thought that to must of been the week after AF x

Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 18:09

@Beck208 aww amazing congratulations!! I'd say probably not, you may have ovulated earlier than you thought!! X

Beck208 · 20/03/2023 18:08

@Angelselevenx I have no idea 😅 must of been early, and thank you my rainbow baby has finally come ❤️ there quite dark so it can’t of been from 6 days ago could it ?

2WW AF due 29th March
Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 18:06

@Beck208 how many days post ovulation are you? Congrats!! X

Beck208 · 20/03/2023 18:01

Hello everyone, is it okay to hop on? AF not due till 27th I’m on a 34 day cycle usually, last period started 22nd of feb, I’ve tested yesterday and today and they’re positive, how’s this possible?

Polkadotfloral · 20/03/2023 17:41

@NavigatingLife thank you! I'll try to stay hopeful! My DH passed his driving test today so we have lots to be happy about. 😊

Ah it's so hard isn't it?! I hope the next two weeks go quickly for you!

Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 17:40

@NavigatingLife are you testing using ovulation sticks? Or tracking BBT? X

NavigatingLife · 20/03/2023 17:37

@Polkadotfloral don't count yourself out yet - I've read it can be between 6-12 DPO! Fingers crossed for you!

Hope everyone else on tww is going okay, after not knowing what's going on with me I have one app saying I'm 1DPO and another saying tomorrow will be 1DPO so I'm already v impatient!!

Polkadotfloral · 20/03/2023 17:35

@Angelselevenx @kalixxx thanks so much for your replies, so nice to know I'm not completely alone in all of this!

I think AF is due on either 23rd or 24th, last month it came at 12dpo after a couple of days of spotting.

Fingers crossed for you both this month! ✨

kalixxx · 20/03/2023 17:30

@Polkadotfloral I definitely wouldn’t count yourself out, I don’t think it’s too early for implantation bleeding!

This my 3rd cycle TTC too! We tried a the conception cup Ferti-Lily this month, hoping that will have done it! X

Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 17:16

@Polkadotfloral came off HBC in December as well but had January as a month just to get my cycles back on track so this month will be month 2. When is AF due?

Polkadotfloral · 20/03/2023 17:13

@Angelselevenx @kalixxx I have had some spotting before AF during my last two cycles (I only came off the pill right at the end of December 2022 so this is my third cycle TTC).

I'm going to be so upset if it hasn't happened this month. 🙁

kalixxx · 20/03/2023 16:48

@Polkadotfloral is it normal for you to bleed before AF?

I’m doing ok but time seems to be a standstill! I’m only 6 DPO and already thinking about testing, I won’t just yet obviously. Trying to hold out until at least Friday when I’ll be 10 DPO.

I was ill this month so didn’t ovulate until CD22 which making this cycle go super slow!

Hope everyone’s doing ok! ✨

Angelselevenx · 20/03/2023 16:46

@Polkadotfloral implantation can happen at 8dpo. Do you normally get spotting before your period? I'm waiting for ovulation with I think is tomorrow then I'll be joining the TWW

Polkadotfloral · 20/03/2023 16:41

How is everyone doing? I'm 8dpo today and just had some light pink on the tissue when I wiped. Trying not to get myself too upset but I'm worrying that this means it's not going to happen for me this month. 🙁

Has anyone else experienced this and had a positive outcome? I'm worried it's too early to be implantation bleeding and I'm scared about hoping and then being crushed in a few days time when AF inevitably arrives. 😭

Cm has dried up today (although not had any creamy discharge that I usually get straight after ovulation...)

Anyway, I'm calling this 1dpo and guessing that AF is due 1st April. Let the 2WW commence!

Angelselevenx · 18/03/2023 16:15

@Pitstop1986 I'm ovulating in the next couple of days to which is CD20/21 so we're in the same boat! AF due on 1st April x

NavigatingLife · 18/03/2023 13:23

@Pitstop1986 I think I might be similar to you... I had ewmc around CD10 and thought my OPK tests looked dark but wasn't fully convinced. Kept testing and now today is definitely a surge at CD20 so I think I'll be in the next day or two as well so have TWW ahead of me...!

ELJ1502 · 18/03/2023 12:51

@LittleWings22 the waiting is killing me already 😂

Pitstop1986 · 18/03/2023 12:27

If I'm ovulating in the next day or two my period will now be delayed until 1/2 April, so I'll probably cave and test around 29/30th March, so I've goy a bit more of a wait than everyone else!

It'll be nice to be spurred on by all of your bfps!!
