Pull up a chair for the 2ww...

[Tea1Sugar]

Anyone care to join me for this interminable length of waiting time?! I'm only 1 dpo!

just checking in, fertility friend is back to saying i ov'd on cd16 (not 18) which means i'm 9dpo, feeling queasy today but know i'm over analysing. how's everyone else doing?

Hi Karma, I'm not entirely out yet, had a BFN yesterday but have had mild cramps since Thursday, no spotting no AF and no crazy mood swings just really tired. Odd, oh well gonna run myself a bath and have a hot chocolate, that should help ease my cramps a bit. Good luck with the wait!

Hello all, I got a very faint positive today at 11dpo, but I'm holding out a few more days to confirm..

Fingers crossed Wispa!! That's the second faint positive in a row isn't it? Good luck!

Well, today I could actually see a line, whereas before it was like a shadow that was hinting at a line. Definitely keeping fingers crossed. It had mixed votes on canyouseealine, but had several people confirm it was a line..

Fingers crossed for you Wispa

Can I join? Two days past ovulation and my first two week wait. Not getting my hopes up at all though!

BFP on an FRER this morning!!!

wisp congratulations! !!

Congrats, Wispa, that's wonderful!

I've had a few BFNs but AF should have appeared yesterday and still hasn't. But continue to have some mild nausea and very unusual bit of bleeding on my gums (which are normally very healthy) so I don't want to think I'm out just yet.

Fingers crossed for you, Gnomie. Sounds like we're in a similar boat.

Hiya, hope I can join this 2ww group? Firstly, congrats Wispa on the BFP! Great news! For me I'm on my 3rd cycle of ttc currently on 2ww, AF/BFP due on Saturday 28th. I'm so fed up of my symptoms I'm trying to ignore them so I don't get disheartened again although this month has been different, diarrhoea every morning for the past week and a half and insomnia. I've never heard of these as classic symptoms of early pregnancy so I'm doubtful again. It's the longest two weeks ever!!!!

Sky girl, gas and almost diarrhea and trouble sleeping are my only symptoms, but diarrhea is usually a symptom of AF approaching for me, except this cycle it started earlier than usual. And as sor the sleep I have noticed that the past few nights I've been sleeping very lightly, waking up all the time, etc. I normally sleep like the dead!

Wispa, you sound very similar to me as I'm definitely an 8-10 hours sleep a night type of girl! Ironically, I normally suffer with constipation which is why I find the diarrhoea so bizarre, fingers crossed I'll know by the weekend, you've given me some hope. You must be so excited about the BFP, best of luck to you x

Congrats Wispa! Comountaingirl, yep still waiting AF still getting mild cramps, a little diarrhoea, on and off not much though! BFN don't know whether to test again or wait.... Might hold out to next weekend.

Ugh, mild but consistent nausea turned to spontaneous vom earlier (not a lot, but V glad I have an office to myself!)

Really hoping that this is a sign, in spite of BFN on FRER this morning. Deffo going to poas again soon.

Might try a few different ones as I know the FRERs are supposed to be the best but have read posts where FRER gave negative while cbd gave positive for some, while for others it's the opposite.

Trying not to get hopes up, but v strange to be sick and feel so wiped out.

Gnomie fx that the evil witch continues her absence.

skygirl hope your symptoms are indeed a sign. This is all so strange that one woman's signs of a BFP are another woman's sign that AF is on her way. That it's opposite to your normal routine is hopefully promising!

COmountaingirl you would think that tiredness and vomiting would be a sure sign, how far into your cycle are you?when was AF due? I hear Boots own brand tests are good and a lot cheaper than FRERs. Fingers crossed for your BFP. You're so right that as women we are all so different!

It's such an emotional rollercoaster every month, I don't even tell DH any symptoms as don't want to get him excited only to be disappointed when AF arrives. I need to distract myself for the rest of the week now.

Afternoon ladies, mind if I join in on the 2ww with you all? :) I'm TTC #1 Cycle #1 and am about 9 DPO (I think! Could be a bit more) but my AF/BFP is due the 28th 5 more days to go :)

How is everyone? :)

skybluegirl I'm now 15 DPO and AF was due yesterday. So it's frustrating not to have a BFP, but I've felt better about it today after reading a few threads and realising that loads of women don't get BFPs until a bit later (seems to be a lot of variation in hcg levels in healthy pregnancies). So I'm crossing my fingers! (while at the same time attempting to manage expectations - emotional rollercoaster indeed!!!!!)

Totally take the same approach as you with DH: I don't tell him all of my symptoms either in case it's nothing. Hope you can find some good distractions for the rest of the week!

Welcome neuroticSweetTalk, you've got some good company for your wait :)

I got a negative on n FRER 2 days ago, a faint positive on one today, and pregnant 1-2 on a CBD at lunch today!

Surprising, as FRER is supposed to catch 12.5miu/ml hcg, while CBD shouldn't show positive until 25miu/ml!

Yeah everyone on here is lovely, I couldn't imagine anyone in my RL putting up with the obsessing and subsequence brushing off of 'symptoms' ha. Anyone else got to keep up their will power for 5 more days? Although probably more like 2 since my IC will be here Wednesday :)

COmountaingirl that sounds promising. Keep us posting

I am completely insane! I am only 2/3 dpo and I am already symptom spotting. Today's symptom was lower back pain. I think this means I need a better chair at work and not pregnancy related

That's great you got a result at lunch today Wispa! Are you testing tomorrow morning too? Just shows you that you never know and there's always hope!

Neurotic - my AF/BFP is due 28th too! We can count down the next 5 days together, have you had any symptoms?

Nah, I have one more CBD, but I want to wait until the weekend to use it. By then it should say 2-3 or 3+, which will put me at ease about the risk of very early miscarriage.

skyblue Yay, I'm not alone at the end of the month :) Fx for you! :)

Well I'm not sure I can count them as symptoms but so far since Tuesday last week I've had spotting, frequently running to the bathroom, abdominal pain, headaches (verging on migraine :(), dizziness, breast pain and sensitivity, backache, swinging between hot and cold, irritability, libido increase, sleepiness, cramps... Could be something but I've managed to convince myself it could just be a UTI or something else since I'm not actually sure if or when I OVd due to a 26 day cycle aha. How about you? :)
