So it's my first cycle of ttc number 3. I'm only 2dpo but I'm so, so impatient! Grin

Anyone else entering the 2ww madness? X

Hi, can I join? Currently 2 dpo. Third cycle trying trying, but first cycle of actually trying on the best days! I ovulate on day 12 of a 28 day cycle and have been DTD on day 12 and once about a week before! This month I used Clearblue digital OPK and got a smiley on day 10. So we DTD that night and on day 12 when I had EWCM and ovulation pain.

I hate the waiting!

Mrsmorrison13 · 14/01/2014 21:44

Only a flipping 100 ovulation sticks and 100 pregnancy tests ! Poas heaven !! Lol x

maeanne · 14/01/2014 21:49

Fingers crossed for you Vickitoriana and everyone waiting and symptom spotting!

What was the package, MrsMorrison?!

I'm now (I think) 8dpo and still have very sore boobs and nipples. I can't even walk down stairs without them hurting and this has gone on for a week now. I do get achy boobs pre af but this feels like more than that. They feel full and heavy and I get the odd stabby pain and tingling. Been crampy for a week too.

Really hope I am not setting myself up for disappointment again!

maeanne · 14/01/2014 21:51

Crossed posts MrsM. Good work!

I had a nice big stash too but they are dwindling fast!

newforest · 14/01/2014 21:54

WOW mrsmorrison, I decided that if it hasn't worked this month I'd order a load too, but I really loved getting that smiley face from the Clearblue!

PolytheneGirl · 14/01/2014 21:59

Lol mrs Morrison. I'd never get anything done if I had a stash like that!

Newforest I looked into getting the clearblue today. I could not believe how expensive it was. DH would kill me if I splashed out on that. He already thinks I've gone crazy for suggesting using opk next month.

sebsmummy1 · 14/01/2014 22:07

Not sure if I said but this month is the first time i used the clearblue monitor. Can't help but suggest it could be a useful aid even though it gave me no peak!!!

MooMa1d · 14/01/2014 22:20

11dpo, due AF Friday

I don't feel pregnant, I don't feel pregnant Angry and yet I wouldn't know if I was anyway..... some strange symptoms but who knows if really they're strange. This waiting malarky is CRAP.

ps I'm tired and moody - apologies

newforest · 14/01/2014 22:27

LOL Poly. I didn't tell mine! ;)

PolytheneGirl · 14/01/2014 22:35

They just don't get it do they!

PolytheneGirl · 14/01/2014 22:37

MooMa stay positive. I'm exactly the same as you. Have had my negative head on all day. Got my first bfn this morning (11dpo). But it ain't over till it's over! Don't know how I'm going to get through the next few days but we all will x

MooMa1d · 14/01/2014 22:42

I know just wish there was a way of knowing!! Thought about it all the way home today lol I almost wish you still JS'ed and didn't have the internet to refer too!!

I had excessing cm over the last week which only just started drying up - and wasn't normal for me, I had back pains and tummy pains - tummy pains intermittent now but to be honest it could've been anything.

I wish there was a symptom that was a defo like.... I don't know..... you got a purple dot below your belly button as soon as you got pregnant. This dot would go away after a couple of weeks but if you got the dot, you was pregnant, end of. No guessing.... Now I'll go off to la-la land

PolytheneGirl · 14/01/2014 22:48

Yup. This 2ww takes the P. I had to take a couple of days off from MN this week because I felt like my crazy was feeding off everyone else's (no offence ladies!) felt like it was all getting a bit much and it's only my first cycle. If things don't go well this month I'm planning on focusing on healthy living next month with healthy eating and trying new recipes, a little exercise and a bit of pampering too. I'm hoping a happy healthy me is going to = a pregnant me!

Lottystar · 14/01/2014 23:18

Hi ladies, sending good vibes out to all of you on the 2ww, it's the most crappy time of wishing days away to poas! Thanks

Poly, no offence taken, as happy as we are for others it's hard seeing BFPs popping up when you are too early to test or get a bfn. I also think we have a tendency to all get excited together and then go dwindle our pregnancy test horde. I have about 50 of the cheapies still sitting in my cupboard but that is probably a fraction of the number I had last week. It's just all too emotional at the time our hormones are nuts anyway albeit one way or another.

Glitter, try not to worry, I had twinges on the left side yesterday, I think it was wind or uterine stretching. Lasted around an hour or so and then went. Worth mentioning to your GP to ease your mind. I figured that if it was ectopic surely we wouldn't feel it when they are the size of a poppy seed?

Vickitoriana · 15/01/2014 06:53

Morning!

The saga continues... Tested first thing this am and still BFN! The spotting stopped last night but there was a bit more this morning which isn't getting any heavier (at the moment anyway).

I was like an internet obsessive last night, furiously googling implantation bleeds and how long to leave it before testing... The consensus seems to be about 3 days before BFPs. Maybe i should never have sex bare back again to avoid this shit. ;0)

sebsmummy1 · 15/01/2014 07:05

Hey girls, threw myself out of bed this morn to see if the line has got darker and I think it has a tiny bit. OH and I aren't talking as he refuses to accept I am pregnant until the line is as dark as the control line!!

Roll on getting my digis through the post.

Here is the latest pic;

sebsmummy1 · 15/01/2014 07:07

Now Vicki I have always (well twice!!) got a fishnet BFP on the day I see implantation blood. I would agree though that you don't get a decent line until maybe three days after.

How bloody annoying !!! Really hope that was implsntation and you get your BFP xxx

sebsmummy1 · 15/01/2014 07:07

Fishnet - faint

Vickitoriana · 15/01/2014 07:13

Pmsl fishnet!

It was a clear blue so who knows. How many DCs have you got?

I spoke to Tommy's pregnancy line yesterday and they thought it was likely the be implatation... She said the timing was about right. I guess it's no over til AF makes an appearance, huh!

sebsmummy1 · 15/01/2014 07:18

I didn't know there was a pregnancy line you could ring!!

Just one other child, a little boy.

Vickitoriana · 15/01/2014 07:19

By the way sebmummy... That line is looking good! :0)

Vickitoriana · 15/01/2014 07:21

Awww... My cousin has a little boy called sebastian... You must be super excited right now?

mrsb87 · 15/01/2014 07:45

Sebs mummy thats deffo a line!!

sebsmummy1 · 15/01/2014 07:46

Ha ha you would think so wouldn't you!! We are not talking, he has left the house this morning with no word of whether I have done a further test and what the result was. He knew my period was due today, didn't bother to ask if it had stayed away. So pissed off with him right now, I've not told anyone in real life yet bar him and he has totally ruined the whole thing for me, AGAIN!!!
