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

Defiantly hope better. He's got all the right things not just necessarily going in the right direction.
Like I said, he's got twice as many as required so if half are going the right way then it's the same difference.

Right, off to the doctors to get referred at 10.20. I shall return with more news.

Doctor has asked for day 2 and 21 bloods and swabs.
They could fit me in for the swabs right away so I'm still sat in the doctors waiting room.
Given that I'm 4dpo right now I should be able to get all the tests done quite quickly.

Loads of people with BFP - that's great! Had pain in my tum like period pain since last night (am 9DPO) so of course have convinced myself it's implantation pain but of course it won't be AF must be due the same time as you bettergetamoveon. I've already done two tests - God, why can't I just wait??

Southsearocks i also have period like pain starting this morning. Bit early is it not? Won't be surprised if AF arrives early for me. I also have throbbing (sorry, that sounds like porn talk). I actually think I just become more aware of my cycles and usual hormonal fluctuations when TTC. I hate this waiting!!!

Pipbin - glad the ball is rolling quickly!

OOoooooooo lots of shiny new people!! Welcome to the mad-house

Laura just think of how many people on the bfp list started with a bfn on their due date. Try not to let it get to you. Again, easier said than done I know xxx

Is coyntmyblessings testing this week too? Are you still lingering on here?

Is anyone else charting out there?? I ask as my chart has never looked like this, and I don't have some of my normal PMS symptoms so... I'm dead excited!! I just worked out my due date Also I've been doing that nutty thing of browsing charts 'like mine' on fertilityfriend. Please tell me I'm not the only one! AF due Sat but I didn't test positive previous preg until 5 wks pregnant so if temps stay high it will be very interesting! I'm being too hopeful aren't I....

Sorry I'm being self indulgent, all the best with everyone and their hopes and this agonising wait.

Don't apologise. It's exciting! Fingers crossed for you x

So I decided that WeightWatchers can get to Falkirk and I needed chocolate. Although I like chocolate I rarely find my self really longing for it. Which got me to thinking, until implantation the body doesn't know that you are not going to be having your period does it? As far as I understand it the corpus luteum hangs about until there is either implantation, in which case it stays, or there isn't, in which case it dies and you get your period.
So until implantation has occurred there is no point in symptom spotting is there because you body still thinks it's gearing up for AF.

pipbin makes sense I suppose!

Apparently my 'fertile window' starts tomorrow assuming a 28 day cycle so will be dtd with the new lube and legs up afterwards because if it doesn't happen this month I'll be seriously peed off

DH 21 - I did the pillow under the butt thing the month of my BFP...
And possibly TMI but I don't normally orgasm with sex (like hardly ever) so afterwards I got myself off. My friend suggested this and could have been one of the things that helped... who knows. Doesn't hurt to try though!

Yeah I think I heard that because the spasms inside help the sperm along their way so I'll def be making sure dh does his job properly everytime and I get my orgasm!

DH21 yes the wait is a killer, sorry you have so long to go!

I have period type pains but not as bad, AF still 9 days away so no idea what's going on, trying to not obsess over every twinge.

My sister announced she is pg and I'm happy for her but god I wish it was me as well.

Hopefully in 9 days you'll be able to say the same thing to her!

I've got 2 preg friends and a preg SIL and my best friend is trying. She was due mon, test on tues but got a bfn so she's in the dark like I was. It's her first so she's texting me asking for advice alot. It feels nice that she comes to me and that I can actually offer something useful!

I do recall seeing a program where they filmed an orgasm from the inside and you could see the cervix bending. It almost dips itself the the seminal fluid.

Did I really just say that?

Rudawakening I'm getting period type pains too and AF is 9 days away too.

Been having lower stomach pains now for over an hour & it's getting on my nerves! AF not due til 24th Feb so a while yet...never early so that rules that out. My head is saying its just pains...heart is hoping implantation. Could it be? Never monitored myself like this when ttc DS.

I'm due some time around the 24th. Wifey I'm determined not to test until the 26th.
I'm only 4dpo so I'm sure it's nothing.

Good morning ladies.

(A bit of background, feel free to skip) As some of you may remember I have written this month off as dd brought home a hideous virus/chest infection from nursery. DH and I managed to dtd once at the beginning of my fertile cycle, then I got ill and dh moved to the spare room so as not to catch the bug too.

I have been off work on and off for the past fortnight, firstly on amoxicillin and now on doxycycline. (coming to the point now) anyway, (tmi alert) this morning after peeing I wiped and there was red spotting on the paper. Today is 11 dpo, and I have 6 days until AF is due. WTF?? (I didn't notice any implantation spotting with dd).

I have been so good at not symptom spotting this month, mainly because I've been busy being ill, but surely I can not ignore this???

I'm not too concerned about the antibiotics if I am pregnant as implantation must have only occurred last night/ this morning. I am taking dd to the GP this morning, so will ask the doctor what he thinks.

So all I really wanted to say was Aaaaarrrrrgggghhh!!!!???

confused does sound quite promising but yeah would ask the doc and see what yet say.
I had the bleeding after sex about 6 days before I got AF but then it could be completely different, keep an open mind!

They say*

Ok, been to the loo again. Definitely probably AF 6 days early WTF?

Will see what the GP says, but not hopeful.

sedgieloo If you can't be self indulgent here, where can you be! This is exactly the place for it

confused sorry AF got you, at least you didn't go over and had an agonising wait but still v frustrating.

AF got me today :( to be honest I'm not even upset about it, just well and truely fed up.

Bettybat would love some advice on the food thing etc..how do you pm people?

Hope everyone else is ok. Confused that sounds really promising, keep us updated! X
