Two week wait, and I'm wanting to test know!!!

Gah, on ttc cycle 2 and on the two week wait to test.

Been having some symptoms, but I think that's more wishful thinking, been very tired, and my bowel habits have been unusual. Nothing else yet, I just wanna pee on a stick already!!!

Anyone else wanna keep me company til the 19th?

Thanks Jazzyjen. my stats: I'm 35, TTC #2, cycle 7(?).

Method- In the first few months I just estimated fertile times using internet apps/ online calculators, then in June started using clear blue opk which showed me I was ovulating later than I thought (CD 21). So from then we made sure we timed it better. I guess we were lucky is all.

Good luck to the rest of you hope to see some of you in the pregnancy threads soon. X

Wow thats interesting cowbis ... Re late ovulation.
I have not done opks this month but am going to start again nxt month. I've never got a strong positive when used in the past cycles. Maybe i'm not catching my fw, this is my 7th cycle aswell.
U never know i mite join you on an april baby an thread before the months out!

I bought a FRER test yesterday as I was needing to wee constantly, and boobs hadn't deflated in preparation for AF. Did it this morning and got a BFP!!!

AF is due tomorrow so I am trying not to get too excited just in case she does her worst.

Donnakim · 15/08/2014 07:48

That's great inbrum!

Quick update here: had a day off with DH yesterday and he wanted me to POAS to get an idea of how they work. It was a BFN, and I was feeling much better so assumed I had a bug earlier in the week. However, this morning as I was getting ready to go to work discovered some spotting! This is very unusual for me! Fingers crossed, AF not due until Tuesday

inbrum · 15/08/2014 08:00

Sounds promising donnakim Smile.

inbrum · 15/08/2014 08:17

jazzyjenbo noticed you asking for stats for bfps. Mine are I am 33 ttc#1 cycle 1 Confused.
My method was to use period tracker app to predict ovulation, which coincided with our holiday, hence it became a dtd holiday. We dtd pretty much every day for 5 days and got lucky....provided AF stays away this weekend.

Good luck gals FX

Loving all the stats thanks.... Never thought i'd need to know how to conceive having been lucky 3 times but this time seems to be a different kettle of fish!!
If i dont get that bfp this month then i will opk everyday to pinpoint and temp aswell.
I use ovia and it said cd16 this month, i had pains cd15, now cd26 (usual 30-31)

Congrats on this mornings bfp!!

Donnakim · 16/08/2014 16:12

Have got myself a supply of internet cheapy tests now. Made the mistake of telling my friend that I would be taking a test this morning and she turned up on my doorstep to ask the result! She meant well, but it sucks that I had to tell her it was a BFN. I am really hoping that she doesn't keep asking me, as my head a mess right now. DH has been a star and put off my family from doing a flying visit today, which is fantastic! The spotting seems to be continuing so off to google implantation bleeding now. AF still due Tues/Weds

Congrats cowbis, that's great news. So happy a few ladies, have had a positive.

I have taken to googling just how early can you get a positive on a early test. AF is due tues (19th) so far I've done 2 clear blue digital, and one early bird. Last one was last night all negative.

I'm still holding hope I was too early but I'm doubting I will remain in the running this month

Sheepoverthemoon · 18/08/2014 09:35

My af is due tomorrow, really don't think it's my month. I've had no good signs, just af symptoms. I think I'm going to try ovulation sticks next month, we dtd every other day up until a week before af due and then nothing - must of run out of steam... So next time we will dtd every other day all way through.

Portlypenguin · 18/08/2014 11:05

Cycle 4 ( i think!), TTC#2, AF due weds but i think it is going to start soon :(
I am unbelievably hungry today, had two breakfasts and eaten my sandwiches already. This greediness is pretty typical of the day before my period starts!

Am a bit down as we concieved v easily first time round - will wait and see.

Hey ladies so great to see some BFPs! AF arrived early for me last Thursday, definitely disappointed but glad I didn't have to spend the entire hen do worrying that I was drinking while pg! Flying home now to jump on DH, don't think he is going to get much peace this month as my cycle seems to be a but unpredictable now and I'm not getting any younger! Ah yes, I'm 40, TTC #2 since April. Good luck for next round everyone!

Portlypenguin · 18/08/2014 21:32
Angry Period arrived Am starting to get worried something is wrong or i am doing something that is preventing getting pregnant. I might ask GP for advice to check i'm using the right strategies to enhance fertility etc. good luck to those still waiting!
Sheepoverthemoon · 19/08/2014 14:00

Freespirit have u had any news? My af is usually here by 2pm and nothing.... Well it is 2pm on the dot... I'm just waiting for it to arrive, poas x 2 this morning both bfn, surely it would be positive by now if af wasn't coming... Still no preg symptoms.... Just resigned to the fact af is on her way...

FreeSpirit89 · 19/08/2014 16:36

Sheepoverthemoon - no sign of period, tested at 3.30pm and negative. So trying to work out whether there is still a chance this month or if I need to resign myself to the fact it's a no.

Already had a cry about it. Dh thinks I'm nuts.

Sheepoverthemoon · 19/08/2014 17:19

I can't believe your In same boat as me..it's nice I'm not alone, I hate being in limbo. My dh is getting annoyed at wasting money of poas... So I only have cheapies from home bargain, 2 for £1, so I'm wondering how accurate they are. If no af by 2mo I'll buy a decent test... I can't bear any more bfn today so not going to test until 2mo... I've had the day off which doesn't help, spent most the day in pjys under the covers...

I intend to do that at 7, gonna retire to bed and stuff my face, and possibly watch OBEM (prolonged torture I guess)

It sucks not knowing though :( at least we can keep one another company x

Sheepoverthemoon · 19/08/2014 19:17

I just had another bfn with a cheap stick, hopefully at least one of us makes it to tomorrow with a bfp, good luck x

Any updates guys? Can I join in? If the tww isn't bad enough, it's still going on! My AF is 1-2 days late, no sign, feel lots of nausea/dizzy/have cm. Got a positive opk two days ago though so wondering if maybe I've ovulated really late this month? So confusing!

FreeSpirit89 · 21/08/2014 16:18

Hi MaGrat - I'm still in the similar situation to you, AF due all the symptoms, but tested on due date and yesterday both neg. still no AF though.

Have you poas yet? Hope it's a positive for you :) xx

MaGratgarlik1983 · 21/08/2014 17:50

Hi freespirit - yep have been testing since about 10dpo (I'm addicted!) but all bfn and I can't face seeing that anymore so have decided to just wait for a bit and see what happens. I've read that the milky cm is a good sign but really can't face getting me hopes up again!
