Hi everyone, I'm 3dpo today and have mild cramping in my lower abdomen & sore boobs...I can't test for ages yet so it's going to be a long wait!

Had really strong twinges on Sunday (definate ovulation pain) on my left side & positive opk both Sun and Mon..

I am using a sperm donor and I did AI on Friday and Monday

Welcome lalanic really got you got your bfp by now and if not, at least it's only two weeks til you can start again. I'm only 4 DPO and have already taken two tests because my nipples are so sore and seem to have doubled in size and I'm making up other symptoms like my sense of smell being much greater and feeling slightly nauseous which I know is all in my head!! Is going to be a long 10 days before I can test again. Making DH hide them on me!!

Hi all. First month using opks. Got a pos ppl on Thursday but no ewcm since tues. Dtd on tues and sat. No idea when I might have ovulated as ewcm and opk suggest different things. I normally only have a 21/22 day cycle so AF due maybe 16/17th.

espa · 09/03/2014 22:29

Opk, not ppl!

OrchidFlakes · 12/03/2014 21:10

How's everyone's week going?

I caved today and poas, evidently it was negative, it's 7 days at best since I ov'd but the wait was killing me. I'm now going to sit on my hands until Saturday before poas again.

I hate the 2ww Sad

Hello! I'm 6dpo and have cramping in my lower belly (and sore boobs but are my boobs always sore?! I can't remember!)
Sorry about your neg orchidflakes, waiting is so difficult :(

Strawberryfizzylaces1 · 12/03/2014 23:02

Hi everyone, sorry not been on for a while. So I'm not sure how many dpo I am, defo more than 7. So trying not to symptom spot but it's so hard! For the last 4 days I have had a pulling sensation on the right side of my lower abdomen, very weird. And for the last 3 days I have had a brown creamy discharge, but today it was pink. Now I have had pre af spotting, like 3-4 days before but never more than a week! Plus it has been more like blood rather than discharge. I hope this is ib and not my body playing cruel tricks like so many women report when they start ttc!! I just so wish I knew what was going on in there!

Hope everyone is holding up ok! Anyone experiencing anythng similar??

redhead27 · 14/03/2014 13:16

Hi can I join this is my first proper 2ww, been ttc for 7 months but I'm pretty positive I ov this month! I'm 6dpo and testing next Friday (13dpo) unless af shows up early, feeling positive but pretty anxious. Fc for everyone

BadgersandToddlers · 14/03/2014 14:23

Hello! Currently 3dpo TTC no2. It's going to be a lonnng wait and I have no idea or inkingling if I have caught or not. Want to guess for me?
Good luck to everyone waiting.

ImBrian · 14/03/2014 17:15

Im 4 dpo and havent stopped cramping since ovulation.Up untill today I had loads of watery cm as well. This doesnt normally happen but I had a chemical pregnancy last month so I think its messed things up a bit. I got positive opks on Sunday and Monday but prehaps I ovulated later.
The tww is horrible, I would like to forget for the next two weeks please!

Strawberryfizzylaces1 · 14/03/2014 17:39

Hi ladies. Although this is my first month trying I'm finding this 2ww a bit crappy. Staring to wonder how people do this month after month. I'm hoping that after the first one is out of the way I will settle into it a bit more! Feeling very blah today and not feeling hopeful.

Sorry to hear about your chemical imbrian I hope this is your month.

Hope everyone is ok!

fs2013 · 15/03/2014 19:19

fs2013 · 15/03/2014 19:55

Oh I also had sharp stabbing pains central under belly button 8 dpo which may of been implantation. It was uncomfortable but not overly painful x

OrchidFlakes · 16/03/2014 08:08

Congrats FS that's fab news Grin

I'm testing tomorrow but despite a bunch of random symptoms (cramping, itchy all over at night, emotional and sore boobs) I'm not hopeful. Despite starting out feeling bizarrely pregnant now I just feel pmt.

24 hrs to go...

Fruityb · 16/03/2014 20:30

I'll join you! Since coming off the pill my cycle appears to have settled at 26 days. I've got an app called 'My Days' which I have recorded periods on, and it's worked out my cycle and my potential ovulation. This is the month we've DTD on the right days, and I'm currently waiting to test. My period is due on Friday (21st) so I'm trying to wait until next weekend. It's absolutely killing me in all honesty.

I came off the pill in October and was back in a rhythm straightaway! I'd been on the pill for 11 years at that point so wondered how long it would take.

I'm going to just have to ride it out and wait till next weekend. But I do know that this month is going to be the one that I will be completely gutted if AF comes. I envisage tears!

I'm a teacher, so I always said "Oh it'll be fine I'll get pregnant around Christmas and it'll be due before the new school year, sorted". How naive I was. They always tell you it's so easy when you're a teen, but when you actually come down to it, you get a 4 day window!

Sorry for the long post, seemed I had a lot to get off my chest. I just need to know one way or the other, so I can stop symptom guessing if nothing else!

BadgersandToddlers · 16/03/2014 22:28

Congrats fs! And good luck orchid - will be waiting for an update.
Welcome fruity! Hope you catch quick.
I will be testing at the end of the week. Really have no idea but I was sure that must have been implantation bleeding it only lasted an hour. But maybe it was just odd coincidence?
Last night and tonight whenever I've had a drink I felt like I was sucking on pennies. Which I know might be a symptom but I just don't want to get my hopes up. I forgot how hard the tww can be and how much it makes you feel insane.
I just keep thinking by the end of the year dd will be a big sister and I will have a lovely snuffly baby. But I don't know. Meh.
Tomorrow however we are getting a puppy! So this may help the broodiness a little.

redhead27 · 17/03/2014 12:15

Congrats fs! I'm 9dpo I've read the most common day for implantation I've had some sort of stabbing pains not mega strong trying not to read into it too much (although it's hard not to) testing on Friday, feeling quite excited. I've had ewcm the past few days as well trying not to get my hopes up but it's hard not too! Fc for everyone

fuckertyfuckfuck · 17/03/2014 13:45

Hi all,
Sorry to gate-crash your thread but im looking for a bit of advice on when to test.
Im pretty sure I had implantation pain Thurs/Fri, I have no idea where I am in my cycle as I have PCOS. I have plenty of symptoms just don't no when I should test to get an accurate result.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated

Mikeysmum2906 · 17/03/2014 13:54

Not sure if am even in the tww gang. Dtd on thursday night got lines on tests on fri, sat and sunday but dp wasnt well to dtd. Think I've missed my chance now :(

redhead27 · 17/03/2014 15:23

I think it's 4-5 days after implantation that hcg can be detected at the earliest hope that's helpful.

redhead27 · 17/03/2014 15:25

Also meant to say that sperm can live up to 7 days so you might not be out mikeysmum.

fuckertyfuckfuck · 17/03/2014 16:46

Thanks redhead ive ordered some tests off Amazon, I know the staff in the local chemist so don't want to broadcast my business. There coming second class so wont arrive until Thursday at the earliest. I'll be waiting as long as I can but I feel pregnant and desperately want an answer
