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

DH21 Grin that's quite restrained, I am always distracted after dtd waiting until I can get my phone to record the SWI on my multiple tracking apps Blush

I haven't got up yet & just considered testing but think I can resist today - I wasn't at all like this last month I tested all the time Hmm am 9 dpo CD 23/27

Training all day at work so will hopefully be less obsessive about it all today Smile

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 07:56

I'm so out of practice what's SWI? Blush

I'm on CD 22 today it's these few days which are killing me, esp as I have alot of twinges/ cramps.

wifey6 · 25/01/2012 07:57

Sex with intent (or so the other thread said) Blush DH21

ConfusedMumDotCom · 25/01/2012 08:35

AF is due today, no sign yet, but will hold off testing until tomorrow.

I had thought SWI meant shagging with intent!Blush

Right, off to find distractions....

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 08:49

Sex/ shagging its all the same!

confused do you feel like it'll come or do you feel different? So hard not to test isn't it!

wifey6 · 25/01/2012 09:15

Think the game will be up soon for me this month...these pains won't shift & I'm getting familiar Pre-AF signs Sad
I was so sure it would happen
But will try & stay positive

ellesabe · 25/01/2012 09:21

Cakes and dh21 ... we are all cycle buddies! I'm due on 31/1 too but DH comes home from a trip abroad tomorrow so I'm going to stupidly optimistically test in the morning. I would love to greet him with the news :)

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 09:30

wifey don't give up hope yet, I think early preg signs are v similar to AF so you never know.

ellesabe that would be a v nice welcome home present! Would a test pick it up yet though?

ellesabe · 25/01/2012 09:42

I have my doubts but feel it's worth a shot!

ConfusedMumDotCom · 25/01/2012 10:17

Desperate I misread your earlier message and thought you said "internet" not intent! Confused clearly hadn't had my cup of tea when I saw that! Blush

Very hard not to test. I am peeing a pit today, but I expect that's more for knicker checking rather than actual needBlushBlush. I had a bfn yesterday, so not overly optimistic. But, my cycle varies from 26-29 days and today is day 27.

ConfusedMumDotCom · 25/01/2012 10:18

"lot" not "pit". Bloody iPhone. Grr

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 10:29

I was wondering how you could pee a pit! Grin

I can't stand the waiting it's driving me crazy and now I'm worried that the twinges and heavy feeling is actually AF on the way :(

confused are you going to test again tomorrow?

wifey6 · 25/01/2012 10:44

Oo no DH21...not you aswell? Sad this 2ww is making us all doubt our 'normal,sane' selfs!

ConfusedMumDotCom · 25/01/2012 11:00

Desperate I will probably test tomorrow. AF usually arrives in the evening on day 27, so if nothing tomorrow morning, I'll be POAS.

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 11:08

Exciting! Fingers crossed for you hope you get a BFP Grin

Alibobster · 25/01/2012 12:23

Ladies thanks for the warm welcome. Not feeling too positive now, boobs are no longer sore and I'm generally just losing faith:( do still have funny taste in my mouth now, not metallic just 'yucky'; probably all in my head though. Good luck girls still waiting to test xxx

cakesareyummy · 25/01/2012 13:27

Ellesabe and confused, good luck tomorrow! Fingers crossed. I don't feel any symptoms today so feel fairly pessimistic this month. So will hold out til sat at least! Dh21 when are you testing?

The silver lining would be that I could drink and eat yummy cheese etc on holiday!

KPT083 · 25/01/2012 13:36

Hello all you lovely ladies,

Please can I join? I'm 6 dpo, ttc dc1, we had mmc in Aug at 11 wks and so desperately willing every sign and symptom to be implantation...

It's very comforting reading your posts; Confirming that i'm not the only 'optomistic and ever so slightly obsesed' woman.

Heres to BFP's for us all!

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 15:22

cake I'll be testing either next tues/ wed if AF hasn't arrived by then.

How long does implantation cramps last? I've had them on and off for 3 days so worrying its too long and is act AF on its way.

kpt sorry about your MMC that must have been awful :( fingers crossed for you this month.

Southsearocks · 25/01/2012 15:38

AF has arrived [bsad] so I'm out too this month. Good luck to the rest of you still in the race, see you in a coupe of weeks I expect Grin (I'll be lurking though to see how you've all got on!)

DesperateHousewife21 · 25/01/2012 15:49

Sorry south that's rubbish :( have lots of choc and wine and we hope to see you get a BFP next month.

wifey6 · 25/01/2012 16:09

DH21.....I'm testing around then too if AF doesn't arrive sooner. Just have a feeling it's not happened this month...Sad
But the show must go on til the fat lady sings

twolittlemonkeys · 25/01/2012 16:10

Still driving myself crazy with my imaginary symptom spotting. Reading every craving as a sign (when in fact it's much more likely to be the fact that I'm on Slimming World so having to curb my serious chocolate addiction), analysing every twinge of pain in my middle, wondering if I'm peeing more than usual, whether my CM has changed, whether I'm feeling nauseous... Most of it is all in my head! How the heck I'm going to hold out for another week and a half is beyond me...

Sorry you're out this month southsearocks. wifey fingers crossed that it's a sign of pregnancy not the imminent arrival of AF.

Anyone got any ideas for distractions during the 2ww? I am going loopy!

wifey6 · 25/01/2012 16:32

twolittlemonkeys....thank you...good luck to you too! My distraction methods have involved a lot of cleaning!! House is spotless!!

ImpatientOne · 25/01/2012 17:01

Grin at peeing a pit Grin

Sorry to see your news south, plenty of wine for now and on to next month...

I've been on a training day today - unusual for me as I mostly work from home - and funnily enough haven't spotted as many symptoms Hmm it was however about child protection so lots of pics and stories about babies :(

AF due Sat/Sun for me so planning on testing on Fri if AF signs not arrived (I usually get spotting before)

wifey6 I wish my distraction involved housework, living in pigsty at the moment as decanted one room into another to decorate!

My main symptoms today are backache, stuffy nose, tender boobs (a little bit veiny) and just a funny feeling 'down there' not really cramps, twinges or pain just a bit odd Blush

Lets get ready for some BFPs! Wink
