Who is joining me on the hideous 2ww?

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

So impatient here too, I hate this waiting. This had contributed to the reason why I've taken so like to decide to have another baby. Seriously! The disappointment I felt each of the 8 months we were TTC#1 was hard. Month 9 was so exciting and happy though.

wifey6 you are the day after me. I have 8 days to wait unless my horrible spotting problem rears its ugly head earlier.

Hope there's some more good news coming along soon for some of you ladies.

DesperateHousewife21 · 15/02/2012 09:57

ellesabe I don't think the conceive plus will last me long! It better happen this month!

My friend came round yesterday, she's got a 2.8yo ds and she's been ttc her second since may! Now she's def getting impatient.

I wish we knew how long it would take, I wouldnt have even bothered being on the pill after I stopped bfing I could be preg by now

misslaughalot · 15/02/2012 11:26

DH21 was the Conceive Plus expensive? Where did you buy yours from? Just thinking I'm prepared to give anything a go if it might help!

DesperateHousewife21 · 15/02/2012 12:14

I got it from amazon it was about £10. If it gets me my BFP this month though it'll be worth every penny!

sedgieloo · 15/02/2012 12:19

Hi all, I hope its not too late to join this thread, in recent months I've avoided any 2ww ones, as its added to the disappointment for me, its just that I'm 11 dpo, i am charting and my chart looks...different. I wont bore you with the details but I'm feeling hopeful and I've not got long to wait my luteal phase is 13-14 days max.
All the best to everyone!!

sedgieloo · 15/02/2012 12:25

oooh the list...I've added following your date ordering. Thanks!

Look at all those BFPs! I hope there are more to join them.

latestarter2009 · 15/02/2012 15:06

Hi everyone, looking for some company on the 2ww. After three dodgy AFs, which are probably age related (43), I swore I would chill out this month and start excepting that if it's going to happen, it's not going to be as easy as I thought and of course there is a good chance it wont happen at all.

Huh, what a load of crap, this pg business seriously does your head in. Ovulated yesterday/today along with lots of baby dancing, so I'm in with a chance and that's all you need right? You know what is cruel? That ovulating gives you happy hormones and makes you all positive, I was happier being negative/realistic!!

congrats on the bfps and good luck to everyone else.

For all those newbies - don't forget to check out the 2ww book club. Great reading suggestions to get your mind off things for a while.

DesperateHousewife21 · 15/02/2012 19:03

rudeawakening spare a thought for me way down the list, I've got 3 weeks to wait and I haven't even OV yet :(
Makes your 10 days seem like nothing now Wink
Seriously though the waiting is a killer isn't it?

Pipbin · 15/02/2012 19:40

Is staring at my Fertility Friend chart going to make it quicker?

wineisamumsbestfriend · 15/02/2012 20:05

Just bought a pregnancy test in supermarket only to be asked if I wanted a yes or no result?!?! Unbelievable. Was totally taken aback. Followed by a barrage of other questions. How many have you got, what will the age gap be, do you want a boy or girl...............................?????????

bettybat · 15/02/2012 20:17

wineisamumsbestfriend Oooooooh how rude!

Lots of luck to all of you lovelies.

Anyone watching Daddy Day Care? Hilarious!

DesperateHousewife21 · 15/02/2012 21:29

And that is why I get my tests from eBay, 5 for about £1.20 and no one asking awkward questions!

wifey6 · 15/02/2012 21:31

I bought 30 sticks from eBay for £2.65! Grin
Privacy & you avoid dumb-ass people like that!

wineisamumsbestfriend · 15/02/2012 22:19

And no chance of bumping into colleagues!! Hadn't even thought about eBay. Thanks for the tip!

Pipbin · 15/02/2012 22:51

I get them from amazon wine

(((((Laura))))

Don't lose hope my love, really. You're young, you have plenty and plenty of time to keep on trying. I know these must seem like empty words to you and I know how difficult they are to heed - and you must be so sick of hearing them.

But don't lose hope. A girl at work around your age was TTCing for 14 months. You hear of people just inexplicably taking a while. It's just sometimes how things roll.

The worst thing to happen is you losing hope and faith, because you don't deserve that to happen to you. Please, please take care of yourself and be nice to yourself and please - PM me if you want because I'm super into eating for fertility and things, and would be more than happy to share info - it nothing else, to help you feel like you're doing something and it's not just some random thing that's completely out of your hands.

Take care xx

Pipbin · 16/02/2012 08:42

I'm bored of waiting now. I think because I'm off work this week it means I've got nothing else to think about.

I've got a doctors appointment today to follow up from DH's SA results.

DesperateHousewife21 · 16/02/2012 08:49

laura it's not over til AF actually shows up, fingers crossed for you :)

bettergetamoveon · 16/02/2012 09:10

7 days to go... oh how these days are long. I had noticed that my wee is bright yellow. I thought that surely must be (an extremely early) symptom. Googled it. Caused by the multi-vitamins I've just started taking.

I'm going nuts I tell ya! Will be checking later to see if there's any good news for Laura or anyone else. Lovely encouraging words from batty too. Wine - how rude of that person to ask all those questions. sedgieloo - changes to your chart sound promising. Pipbin, doesn't look like the news was awful then, definately hopeful isn't it?

Best of luck to everyone else. It's going to be a long week.
