2 DPO here. The 2 week wait feels endless!

I really didn't think waiting 2 weeks was going to be so bad.... how wrong could I be!

Sorry you didn't get your BFP London, but there is still time for you! When are you due AF?

I think your spotting could be implantation nomdemere. I'd love a bit of spotting right about now!

No more leaks from the nips today, must have been a one off. Does anyone else feel really heavy and bloated mostly in the evenings? Guess im feeling a little more sensitive today, like when I wanted to cry because DS gave away all of his loom bands at school today and I was looking forward to making things with him tonight. Poor boy, major over reaction over a £1 item haha

I think AF is due anytime early this week... No sign yet so I'm still in althoughy discharge tonight is a bit creamier than usual, sorry TMI!!

I'm also heavy and bloated in the evening, gahh!! What is all this stress doing to our bodies?!!

lilyp2014 · 07/07/2014 23:11

Im sure creamier discharge is a good sign?! FX!!

nomdemere · 08/07/2014 09:42

Yesterday's spotting was only a small amount and seems to have stopped. 4 days till testing...

Oh I'm so confused! I counted 2 weeks from ovulation, which was Monday, but actually I think my period is due tomorrow (Wednesday) so I guess I should wait and see if AF turns up tommorow and then test again? Or would results be accurate today?

I don't think my brain can cope with too much testing and BFNs!!

Fingers crossed for you nomdemere!!!

nomdemere · 08/07/2014 13:44

Do you know how long your cycle is normally, London? Then you can count from the first day of your last period to see when your period is due again, and test on that day. If you don't know how long it is, or if it's quite variable, try counting 28 days - that's what I'm doing (though I think my cycle is a few days longer, so if I get a BFN, I'll try again a few days later).

although I am going to throw caution to the wind and start testing 6 days before AF is due since my cheapo Internet tests say they sometimes work that early

I have PCOS and taking Clomid to ovulate so I've never really had normal cycles unfortunately, but my FC said that 14 days after ov should be the first day of my period... Think I'll hold off til tomorrow morning and then test then to be sure...

Didyouevah · 08/07/2014 19:47

Well I think AF has arrived. Might be implantation bleeding I suppose. Will wait and see in the morning.

Didyouevah · 08/07/2014 19:47

15dpo. Cd26.

Didyouevah · 08/07/2014 20:23

Definitely AF. I'm out. See some of you next month! Good luck to the rest of you x

LondonBlondie · 09/07/2014 08:56

Sorry to hear that Didyouevah. Better luck next month!

I tested again this morning and BFN. Still no sign of AF but I guess she must be due at any moment. Pretty disappointed as this was my first time ovulating on Clomid so my expectations were up, but fx that next cycle brings better news.

Plus I'm off to Italy at the end of the month so now can enjoy drinking lots of vino there!!! Every cloud..!

nomdemere · 09/07/2014 09:42

Sorry about that London - but could it still be that it's a bit early to test? Maybe try again in a couple of days time?

Hello ladies. I'm now 2dpo so just starting the 2ww. First month trying for dc2 but I remember really hating this bit when trying for dd, must have spent a mortgageable fortune on tests so this time I'm determined to not have test in the house until af is actually due. Give me strength!

nomdemere · 09/07/2014 09:52

Hey, I just began mine! Was here before...and well didnt work oiut...had to abort as there were momo twins and all was not well..now six months down the line..we are ttc again and this month, well feels a little different!

nomdemere · 09/07/2014 12:30

Good luck indiangirl - I don't know what 'momo' means with respect to your twins, but very sorry about that, it sounds a difficult experience.

I have just done this quiz to work out if spotting is implantation bleeding or not. It didn't seem to think mine was, grrr! but seems quite informative.

I have worked out that tomorrow is the earliest possible day I could test and get a positive result. Of course, I then went and did a test today anyway, and got a BPN. It wasn't even the first wee of the day, so don't know why I did that, but feeling slightly deflated. Roll on tomorrow!

nomdemere · 09/07/2014 12:33

Indian - I just googled and found 'mono amniotic twins' which I'm guessing is what you meant. That sounds very tough and I am wishing you lots of luck this month.

What is everyone doing to occupy their time? I'm considering testing on Friday but will probably wait til Saturday so DP can get the result with me. It's so bloody hard to wait man!

zoobaby · 09/07/2014 13:08

Good luck indiangirl (sorry, didn't intend to be insensitive, wrote my last post before realising there was a 2nd page of posts).

ILiveOnABuildsite · 09/07/2014 13:10

I'm probably the least patient person I know, so waiting is driving me mad, I obsessively count the days off on calendar every morning and probably once or twice in the day because that helps me to focus on the fact that days are actually going by. It's mad I know, but works for me. Luckily as I've got quite a bit of waiting to do still.

indiangirl2013 · 10/07/2014 07:58

Yes, thats what they were...sadly there were expected complications and we had to let go of them...have never really forgiven myself for that...but have tried the best to move on...i am really hoping things go my way this time! :)
i can see many of you have your stories too! here's to our resilience and faith!

indiangirl2013 · 10/07/2014 08:00

No harm done zoobaby :) all is well!

indiangirl2013 · 10/07/2014 08:06

so i wasnt really charting, as i didnt want to jinx it...but i think i am about 10 dpo today...and here is what i have...

consistent lower back pain, discomfort sometimes shooting pains...
dry cm or no cm...
theres like little flutters in the uterine area all day long...today a little milder...
i felt two quick pops or twinges a couple days back on the right side somewhere below my belly button...not painful just weird..
and have had stuffy nose and sore throat like forever since o day...

so officially i think i am now in the 2ww and really dont want to get my hopes high...i am also changign my obgyn this time as the last one didnt even let me know there wer complications with my twins, and if we didnt take a second scan and opinion it would have gone really badly...
so need to look for a good doc also...

hows all of you doing?

nomdemere · 10/07/2014 08:09

Oh damn. Tested this morning - BPN, but thought it might still be a day or two early. But AF has just started - rather early. This cycle is only 26 days which seems unusual. I wonder if the implantation bleeding was from a failed implantation. I really thought I was pg. Oh well. Better luck to everyone else still in the game.

indiangirl2013 · 10/07/2014 08:12
