Who is joining me on the hideous 2ww?

[LauraM20]

Hey All!
Im currently on CD 20 so around 8-10 days until the AF arrives or I can test :D Just thought there may be some others that are waiting and driving themselves crazy! Thought we could hopefully share our BFP within the next few weeks, and keep each other sane! :D

I had a really vivid bfp dream last night and it took all the will-power in the world not to test this morning! I bet when tomorrow comes around I'll be too scared anyway and want to put it off for another week :)

Hey everyone!
Looking for abit of advice! I use the clearblue opk, am
I ovulating the day I get my smiley face or the day after? I normally get cm (sorry tmi!!) the day I get my smiley face. Does that make sense, trying to work out the best possible day to dtd-I guess it's the day I get a smiley face and the day after. I want to make sure I'm not missing any chances! X

PMSL Beeblebear, I've done the sitting in the baby department thing, even made a special trip to the big Mothercare just to browse and consider which baby things I wanted to buy for my imaginary baby! I am officially nuts! We were in Toys R Us last week with DS1 & 2 as they had Christmas/Birthday money to spend - I told DH to keep an eye on them and made a beeline for the baby section - spent a while checking out twin buggies too (freak) seeing as the Clomid, if it works, carries a 10% chance of multiples. I really am insane.

I hate regular housework, but reorganising cupboards sounds doable. I have already made tonight's dinner. Wonder if any of my friends need dinner making tonight...?

I will test on Friday or Saturday. (CD30/31)

Hey Laura - we ARE cycle buddies! Are you ovulating (wow, never thought I'd ask a relative stranger that!). As you can probably tell from my recent post, I have no idea WHAT I am doing but I think I might have possibly OV'd on Saturday.

I'm using the sticks and they say to DTD within 24-36 hours of getting a positive, if that helps? I can't imagine your smiley face would be anymore different than a positive stick.

Ellesabe Congrats on your will power!! -
I however have non and am testing tomorrow

Is anyone else using a fertility monitor? We've only been using a month and today it came up with two lines (monitor said high fertility but it's been that way since 14th Jan!) I'm hoping (possibly ever so slightly delusional) that it might mean BFP hormones are affecting it......

Ladies, I got a bfp yesterday on cd 26! It was however very, very faint although it easn't fmu. I did another this morning and it was still very, very faint. Trying to be optimistic but I'm a bundle of nerves :(

Ali, that's so exciting!!

Thanks lostboys; because of my history I'm just really nervous- I called my EPU and I've not to see them until next week to get my hcg injection. I thought that the would maybe have done a blood test just to confirm I really am pg x

Ali, I think I know how you feel.
I am so desperate for the BFP, but I know I will then be worried sick about miscarriage again.
What's the hcg injection for?

Congratulations Ali!! Keep us posted on your progress I have everything crossed for you :)

Betty, no haven't ovulated yet, last couple of months it's been day 16 which is tommorow so fingers crossed I will get a smiley face tommorow! Then let the 2ww commence!! I've booked lots of things for my days off to keep ne occupied and in trying really hard not to stress, do far relatively successful but not on 2ww yet and that's when I normally go crazy! :)

Ali, how exciting! Fingers crossed it sticks and that line keeps getting stronger. I'm on CD26 today and determined to hold out til the weekend, though I wouldn't be surprised if I cave and test on Wed or Thurs. I too will be very nervous if it's a BFP, as my last BFP resulted in a MC at 9 weeks :(

KPT I deliberately don't use one, because I know I would obsess too much over it (plus, having PCOS and having to take Clomid to make me OV, my hormone imbalance might affect the accuracy of any results)

ali yay!! Good luck next week, I'm sure it'll all be fine :)

I felt a bit periody again earlier but it's gone off now. No AF though which is a huge bonus. Hopefully this time tomo I shall know!

Thanks for all the good wishes. I'm now working myself into a panic. Bought a cb digital today and of course decided to use it this afternoon rather and do the sensible thing and wait till tomorrow. Don't know why did it because the test is not as sensitive as the one I used, my af is not due for another 2 days, and it was mid afternoon pee! Anyway it came up pregnant 1-2 weeks! Obviously I am over the moon but now really worried that it has shown this result. The reason being the strip tests i used (Morrisons own) were very very faint yet they are more sensitive than the cbd! Why would the cbd give a positive result with afternoon pee and early?! My last af was quite heavy with clots in it and I'm worried now that that might have been a cp land residue hcg causing these results. Sorry if I sound like a nutcase but only you ladies understand :(

Ali the clear blue gave you a positive because you are pregnant! Congratulations!!!

2LM - OH THANK GOD~ I'm not alone! For some reason I thought I was the craziest out here. lol

Ali... WOO HOO that's awesome. Congrats hun!

Yay Ali!! That's great

I'm sooo scared about testing tomo now, planning on testing as soon as I get up, which will prob be 6am thanks to ds.
I've felt really dizzy and weird this eve.

oh Ali - a huge Congrats to you and im crossing all that its a new pregnancy and you can start enjoying it! i had the same as u with the heavy clots being 5 days late and the worse pains ever!!!! but im holding hope that all is well this month!
today marks my cd14 and im feeling those mild cramping pains again so will try get in for another "one for the team" whhhhhhhooooooooopppppppp"
Laura20 and B.Bat - we are all very close in dates so i getting nervous now, with hoping that we are hitting the right dates!!!!
i do hope that we are all going to get our longed for BFP so we can all be on another thread titled " positive thinking and now heres to a positive 9 months"
or something like that!

Aw Ellesabe, beeblebear, desperate and countmyblessings, thank you for your good wishes and lovely words, they mean so much and I honestly mean that. Good luck and love to you all! Let's hope 2012 is our year xxx

Congratulations ali!

Good luck tomorrow cycle buddies dh21 and Ellesabe. I'm not testing tomorrow cos I caved again on Sunday afternoon as I was so grumpy and did a first response which was negative. So just have to see if / when AF arrives... Fingers crossed for your bfp's tomorrow!

Laura30 - smiley is good and your at the peak of ov-ing so those 2 days are great!!!!! dtd as much as u can will a great way to kick off "operation preggy"

Much nicer over here - it's all gone to hell in a hand basket over in AIBU!

Many congratulations Alibobster! Hurrah Now you can legitimately look baby shopping - is it bad that's one of the things I'm most looking forward to, instead of all the furtive, shifty, fidgety, pretending-I'm-not baby shopping I'm doing right now? Hahaha! Very happy for you

Countmyblessings - haha, go for it love!

DH21 and Ellesabe, best of luck for tomorrow! Crossing all my fingers and toes for you both. Stay away AF!

Cakes, boo to the BFN - when are you due/what cycle day are you on?

I remain singularly confused, as always. I'm even confused on the benefits thread over in Money, because apparently I can neither work out cycle/OV dates nor benefit entitlement

Hello all, may I join? This is our second cycle of TTC. I believe I ovulated 4 days ago and due AF in a minimum of 9 days. Cycle still getting back to normal after coming off pill. Have had one period so far which took 6 weeks to arrive. Used ovulation sticks on this cycle so think we got the right days. I don't feel this will be the month, couldn't be that lucky but I do feel odd twinges in my lower abdomen.

This will be our first and so excited whenever it happens, am prepared for it to take a while :) I have a niece or nephew due in 5 weeks time, first time being an auntie so I'm reallllllly excited! My family is quite small so very much looking forward to the new addition :)

Welcome aboard Ratata this is a great place to be holding hands and sharing as much as you want maybe easier then talking to people in RL!!!!!
heres hoping you get a quick fast BFP!!!

Hi all - Boots has a deal on clearblue- preg kits and ov-ing kits!!!! ohhhhh may have to get some now i know i maybe getting a bargin!!!!!
