I am at the start of the 2WW and planning to test around the 11th August. This is my first proper month trying to concieve following a MMC in April. I am already so nervous/excited and just wish I could fast forward!!!!! Anyone else at the start of their 2WW? Hoping for lots of BFPs!! xx

Many thanks everybody!! It is so nice to be able to share the news with you ladies!

Some very promising sounding symptoms on here today. Littledragon and mumpty, I like the sound of your nausea, if you know what I mean, a very positive sign. havealittle what did you decide? Will you test tomorrow?? Good luck if you do! And Piglet you are testing tomorrow right? Good luck!

I will be following this thread closely over the coming week, and hopefully counting the BFPs. For what it is worth, I still have no convincing symptoms other that tiredness and (oddly) terrible lower back pain Hmm.

Well ladies, the wedding was perfect. Not drinking was not a problem as so much was going on. There's only so much coke you can drink in one day though!

I had thick brown cm (sorry tmi!) all day yesterday. I've never had that before between cycles. I also had cramps all day, but had this for a week now. I'm not sure if its a good or bad sign :(.

Wild-how did you oh take the news? Bet your still on cloud 9!

Carrie-I'm due on Thursday so will be testing on Wednesday. Try and hold out till then with me!

Havealittle-did you test?!

Lots of positive symptoms on this thread! Let's all hope we will be joining wild over on the pregnancy board!

Glad you had a good time figaro. That cm sounds positive!
Nope haven't tested. Temp did come up a bit this month so I feel I'm still in the running....so I'm 13 dpo temps still up. Might test tomorrow...my luteal phase is usually 13 or 15 days so that wouldn't be too early.Hmm

Piglet28 · 06/08/2011 09:34

Arrgghh poop BFN then AF got me this morning! After lots of promising signs his month too... bugger!!

Good luck to everyone else! x

ilovetomatoes · 06/08/2011 11:04

Sorry to hear your news piglet, fingers crossed for next time.

So I tested this morning and got a BFP! Can't believe it, I'm in shock!

Fantastic news Ilovetomatoes! That's 2 bfps now!

So sorry piglet. Keeping my fx for next month for you.

I hope It's a positive sign havealittle. I don't have a good feeling about it though.

Sorry to hear that piglet- always a kick in the teeth-fx for next month.
fantastic news for you ilovetomatoes you must be on cloud 9 this morning. Figaro I'll be testing on Wednesday too (although was tempted to test tomorrow as it is our wedding anniversary- but actually don't want to spend the day disappointed). I have been really good this month ad haven't bought any tests, having them in the house is just too tempting. Still no real symptoms for me except having to get up several times in the night to go for a wee when I usually sleep through the whole night but that could be down to any number of things. Have a great day everyone looking forward to hearing about lots more BFP.

Wildwaterfalls · 06/08/2011 12:27

So sorry Piglet Sad. Really annoying after the promising signs. Really hope it will be your month next month.

Huge congratulations tomatoes! Fantastic news. And now you have the weekend to celebrate!

figaro pleased the wedding was fun! Fingers crossed that your cm is implantation bleeding. It certainly could be!.... My DH is also really pleased about the BFP. I think both of us are trying not to get too excited given the mmc back in March - kind of managing our own expectations I guess...

havealittle yes sounds like testing tomorrow might be the right time.... Exciting! Let us know how it goes!

Well I think I'm out :(. I've got fresh blood in my cm now and quite a lot. Not as heavy as an af but quite a lot. Really upset as I thought this was our month. My cycles are all over the place since my mmc. 35, 34 and not 25 days. So not fair.

Ah I'm sorry figaro :(
tomatoes congratulations.

Figaro82 · 06/08/2011 16:16

Well I am well and truly confused! My cm has gone back to the brownish colour I had yesterday. The dark brownish red I had earlier has stopped. There was quite a lot of it when I wiped which made me think it was my AF. It's so confusing. I've never had IB before but this feels like there is to much and that it's been going on to long :(

What cd are you figaro? Are you thinking about testing?

Figaro82 · 06/08/2011 17:14

I'm 9 dpo. Have no idea what's going on with my cycle lengths. I think I will test tomorrow with one of the Internet cheapies.

congratulations tomatoeSmile

sorry to everyone with bfn.

i think i might have to leave these threads as i don't seem to be able to handle this, feel so so depressed today.
my dd who is age 4 fell off her scooter 2-3- weeks ago, and now one of her front teeth has turned light grey.
now im fretting ot will turn really dark grey or have to be removed.
i know anytime form age 5 they start to drop out.
but feel so so depressed today.

havealittlefaithbaby · 06/08/2011 19:19

carried so sorry you're feeling low. It really does get you down sometimes doesn't it? I cried on DH last night after hearing about another pregnancy on fb and an insensitive email from a pregnant friend.
figaro I wonder if it could be implantation? 9dpo sounds quite early for af esp if it's variable.

nickschick · 06/08/2011 19:26

You will all get great news on the 11th ( I hope) on the 11th my ds1 is 18 and his birth story is nothing short of miraculous.

Ill keep all my fingers and toes crossed that you all get the news you want on the day Smile.

Carried - I'm so sorry you are feeling like this. We are all here if you need to vent some frustration. I've spent most of the day in tears, so it hits us all.

Havealittlefaith - I really hope so. There is nothing there now.

Thank you nickschick! Hoping for lots more BFPs too!

LittleDragon · 07/08/2011 11:24

I gave in this morning and used the first response test i had and bfn. I'm wondering if the stress I've been under has messed up my cycle as I'm not charting or anything so was going on dates for ov.

I tested this morning to littledragon and got a bfn with one of the Internet cheapies. I know it's to early, but was just hoping the bleeding I had was due to IB. Do you have a rough idea how many dpo you are??

OP posts:
havealittlefaithbaby · 07/08/2011 12:40

I tested with cheapo poundland test, bfn. My temp is still up so don't expect af just yet...may test again in a couple of days. Looks like we're all in a similar boat.

Figaro82 · 07/08/2011 12:48

I don't like this boat :(

OP posts:
montymum · 07/08/2011 12:54

I don't like the boat either, I gave in too used a first response and bfn too, maybe we should all stick to the original plan and not test to the 11th. Lets remain positive it's not over till the fat lady sings.

carriedababi · 07/08/2011 13:06

havealittlefaith, and figaro.
thanks so much for the support it means a hellof a lot to me.
feel bit calmer about my dds tooth today, had a bit of a cry an chat to dh about it last night and i think its seemed to have helped, i don't know maybe its let off a bit of steam.

went to the cinema this am and fell asleep, i had a good nights sleep.
just feel nvery drained and not myself at all, but not in a good way, in a depressed way.
mainly about my ddds tooth but other stresses too such as dd starting school plus all this ttc business

i really don't know how people cope with ttc for years.

havealittle faith, do you think your friend was insenstive by accident?

figaro? what has been upsetting you? just this whole ttc business?

think im going to test on fri if i don't get any af.

good luck to everyone still in with a shot

havealittlefaithbaby · 07/08/2011 13:16

Glad you're feeling better carried. It is draining. Make sure you take some time for yourself, you sound worn out!
I don't thinky friend knows how to handle the situation tbh. It's become a she doesn't ask, I don't offer info situation. I don't want to be a downer for her, she's a big and pregnant and happy and I'm...not.
I've started spotting (tmi warning) like old blood. Has this before expect af to rock up soon. Yup this boat is pants.

Montymum - I think your right, we are all testing to early!!!

Carried - Glad your feeling a bit better today. We all need to try and hold out for a bit longer!

I had some bloody (dark brown) discharge over the past few days and it there was quite a bit yesterday at one point, but only when I wiped (sorry if TMI!!). I am not sure if its Implantation Bleeding or the start of my AF, but it would be to early for my AF. There is nothing there today so fingers crossed for IB! x
