Hi everyone. I'm about to embark on another 2ww (ovulating today) and wondered if there was anyone else out there in the same position who wanted to come along for the ride!

Only cycle 2 TTC #2 but took 13 months last time so crossing everything!!

Hey everyone, just wanted to update that I got a darker line at 5dpo and I got it confirmed by the doctor today. I am pregnant with number 2, due in June!

ScaryMartian · 23/09/2014 20:07

Yay! Huge congrats Bonbon! Smile

alien11 · 23/09/2014 22:19

Can I join please ?:) I'm ttc no.2 and am part of the trial for digital cbfm. I had the Mirena coil removed in July this year. this is the first cycle of using the monitor and it recorded peak fertility. So to cut a long story short, I'm now embarking on the 2ww. I have been getting shooting pains since the peak was showing. Guessing they were/are ovulation pains. The peak was on Saturday.

Congrats Bonbon! And hello alien Smile

My 2ww feels like it's lasting forever. Have felt a bit nauseous today but I think it's probably more about the amount of cake I'm eating than anything more exciting. Going to try to hold out til Sunday before taking a test. Have in laws staying from tomorrow so at least a bit of a distraction

Baffers100 · 24/09/2014 16:58

My boobs hurt today, right at the top. They've just started tingling and hurting a little, but like everything else this could be doen to god knows how mnay other things!
Got my babymad delivery too of OPKs, ulta early tests and a BBT. Trying very hard not to whip our a HPT!

Fruityb · 24/09/2014 22:47

I'm joining this one again.

AF due tomorrow. Have felt PMS this month which is the first time since coming off the pill. No period symptoms at all so no sore boobs which I always get. I'm tired. It's day 26 of cycle and I average 27 so well see how tomorrow goes.
I've relaxed about OPKs and all that stuff just lately. I was getting obsessive!

We are engaged now so that's nice :) I'd just love this month to be it but I just don't know yet. We shall see tomorrow!

59sound · 25/09/2014 07:50

Congrats on your engagement and fx for today! Are you going to take a test?

Fruityb · 25/09/2014 16:04

AF not here yet but think I might wait a day or two to test. I want to be late proper lol. I'm feeling particularly emotional this month but don't know if it's PMS kicking in eventually or something else. Not going to tempt fate just yet.

fortywinx · 25/09/2014 16:24

I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm in my 2ww. Had mild cramping feeling at about 6/7 DPO, been feeling a bit off. Seem to be super sensitive to smells the last few days and just feel a bit 'off' with some lightheadedness etc. Only our first time TTC though so I'm not overly hopeful and think I might be be reading to much into my 'symptoms'! AF not due until 30th so almost another week to wait and see :(

alien11 · 26/09/2014 06:39

Hi all thanks for the kind welcome :) no symptoms at all here except bloaty/windy tummy! Also ,am fighting a cold/flu thing which arrived yday just in time for my daughters 3rd birthday party on SaturdayConfused
I have to pick up mil from station today as she's staying & out for dinner tonight. I just want to lay in bed all day & wallow :(

Oooops sorry for me me me rant!!

Forty winks -the cramping could be implantation?? Also the smell thing is really interesting! You Never know until you test

Fruityb · 26/09/2014 17:15

Ooh I'm one day late lol. According to my app, which I swear by, I've only had one cycle last more than 27 days and that was the month I was a week late and allowed myself to get excited. I'm in day 28 now. Not going to test till after the weekend as there's time for this to change yet. I'm bloody exhausted and have a headache but think that's more down to late working this week. Keeping calm and carrying on for now.

59sound · 26/09/2014 17:32

Ooh exciting fruity! Fx for you.

I convinced myself this afternoon that I was definitely pg as I felt completely knackered, had some cramps and a metallic taste in my mouth. Now think I was imagining it all. Grr... 5 days to go.

Fruityb · 26/09/2014 17:40

I'm not a headache person really. I get them very infrequently. I'm just laid on the sofa with my blanket and book. I don't want to get excited but at the same time I do lol

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 27/09/2014 07:47

Welcome everyone!

Bonbon massive congrats:)

fruity have you tested yet? If you are late a HPT will give a pretty accurate result! Fx'do for you!

forty it does sound promising when will you test?

Well AF has finally vacated! Whoop. Just waiting to ov now. Gonna try and dtd eod and then every day over ov. Got to catch the eggy this time round I'm certain of it. Otherwise I might take a break until the new year.

Hello all, welcome to those who have recently joined.

Mooley- we are cycle buddies! What cd are you? I'm on cd 7, usually ov around cd 15.

The AF from hell has finally finished and temps have finally dropped to below last cycles coverline. Our plan of action is the same as yours- dtd eod and everyday over ov.

This WILL be our month.

Anyone testing today?

Fruityb · 27/09/2014 09:36

Might do today. Possibly going to pick one up when I pop out this morning. Still late but don't want to tempt fate.

ScaryMartian · 27/09/2014 10:08

Fx for you fruity.

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 27/09/2014 10:36

Scary I'm also on CD7! Yet for cycle buddies. I normally ov around CD18, but can be as late as CD24. I've promised myself I'm not testing until at least 12dpo or later. It was heartbreaking seeing BFN after BFN last month.

fruity TEST TEST TEST TEST TEST!!!!! Grin

I'm back!
I've given myself 2 weeks off where I've tried (ahem) to eat well and not drink etc and am now back in the 2ww. That's gone quickly! Fingers tightly crossed for this month. So to recap ttc #2 after MMC in June. Pretty sure I ovulated yesterday so AF is due the day I am due to be a bridesmaid!! Have plenty of HPT in the cupboard and I'm not even going to pretend this time that I won't be peeing like mad from next Wednesday onwards!!
I will now go and catch up with what's been happening since my 2 week break!

candypop · 27/09/2014 17:31

Hi all! Just had a week or so break from thread after last cycles disappointment!

Hello to all the newbies.

I'm current on CD9. Only did the did once since new cycle but from today will be aiming to do it EOD and then everyday when I get a positive on OPK. Not sure if it's best to do it every day in terms of sperm quality etc so advice would be appreciated!

Have also got preseed this month. Question for those who use it, should I start using it now ? ( is there any point) on only during my fertile period (so from CD11 onwards )

My aim this cycle is to try keep calm, stress levels low and not POAS till AF is due.....

Do I feel lucky this month?! Hmm not sure!

mooley this will be my last month trying too until the new year! Sounds really stupid but I didn't want a baby born second half of the school year (yeah I know STUPID !) so this cycle would mean I would have a mid-June baby..... So gonna avoid a July /August baby if this cycle doesn't work out .

candypop · 27/09/2014 17:32

Oh forgot to say fruity are you gonna test ??!!!

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 27/09/2014 18:37

candy I only use preseed during my fertile period and I apply it with my finger as I find the tubes they supply give too much 'juice' and I only use 1g :) but no harm using it throughout. A little goes a long way. I'm with you on the baby being born in second half of year so that's my reason for waiting.

rainy fx'do for you!

fruity did you test?

OP posts:
Fruityb · 27/09/2014 19:10

Not yet though I did pick one up. I'm feeling like AF is going to come so don't want to waste it yet!

candypop · 27/09/2014 19:38

fruity you are so good! You put many of us POAS addicts to shame! ??

mooley it's funny cause DH birthday is late July so I think he finds it a little offensive .... Ideally I would have wanted a baby pre-April , I wanted to wait to the new year before trying but DH wanted to start ASAP so we compromised and said we will try for two months and if it doesn't happen we will wait to new year . I have TWO friends who were super efficient and have DC born on 1st Sept! Now that shows real skills there Grin

Fruityb · 28/09/2014 10:07

AF arrived this morning on day 30. I'm so upset and angry I don't even know what to do with myself. I feel like this is never going to happen and it's been nearly a year of trying. I feel like a total failure. This shouldn't be so hard.

I'll make sense later when I've calmed down a bit.
