Hey all
My tww starts again today. 4th cycle. Just had 2 full days of positive opks and lots of bd with dh.

So let the crazy symptom spotting begin and the madness that is the tww.

Anyone else in the tww - hoping to hear lots of bfp stories xx

Fingers crossed for you Sam

HairStylistToBoris · 31/10/2014 20:26

Sam - very confusing for you. Wait a couple if days and try again? From what you have shared I was so sure you were going to come back with a positive result.

Aprilray · 31/10/2014 21:01

Oh no Sam, how frustrating for you! I take it it wasn't fmu so maybe not concentrated, hopefully you will be out of limbo with a shiny BFP soon.

Fruityb · 31/10/2014 21:22

I shall join here though I'm not officially in 2ww till later next week, around Wednesday. My method this month is to boink away next week and hope that the good news comes this month. It's been about a year trying though to be honest I was too naive at the start and so class it as properly trying since about Feb. Desperate for it now!

loopylou1984 · 31/10/2014 22:07

Thanks April no it wasn't, am going to test in the morning. Will let u know! X

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 07:50

Just to update you, tested this morning with fmu and still negative. Day 35 now Hmm
I don't know what's going on.
Based on when I ovulated this is ridiculous - but surely the test would show positive by now if I was pg? X

Aprilray · 01/11/2014 08:26

Sam, I've heard of people not getting a BFP until they're a week late so hang in there.

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 08:29

Thanks April- based on a 28 day cycle this is a week late, but I could be a couple of days out I guess... Fingers crossed. X

Joey0805 · 01/11/2014 14:29

I'm going to a party tonight (last minute) so thought I should POAS this morning, got a BFN. With a FRER and at 10DPO I think that's fairly conclusive!

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 14:47

Hi Joey - what is FRER? Xx

Joey0805 · 01/11/2014 15:56

It's one of those First Response Early Result tests (thy come in a pink box and are supposed to be the most sensitive)

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 16:25

Ah, thanks!
Well I don't think I can spend any more money on tests just now...
Maybe I'll bring out my own brand so that other women like me can pay of my mortgage! Lol.

I'm going out tonight too but won't be having a drink unless af arrives before I go Hmm

Hopefull - when does your 2wW theoretically end. I'm hateing it too and only just begun. Tough not talking about it to others too in RL. How much do you OH join you in the stress of the wait? Mine doesn't seem to get to involved in the dates and the stages and bothering about what happening, he wants a baby but is more detached.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 01/11/2014 20:52

I'm on my very first 2ww, 1st attempt for first baby ??

Patientlywaiting2014 · 01/11/2014 22:22

Hi ladies
I thought I'd share with you the viola p test which you can only buy at Lloyd chemist approx £8 for 2 and they are extra sensitive about 5 mui ! I'm ttc #2 and 4 days late with too many to mention BFN :( however it's never over until the red lady arrives I suppose! Good luck to all x

TheProofIsInThePudding · 01/11/2014 22:32

Hello ladies, may I join you? I recognise some familiar names from Pregvember.

I'm due 14th November, so the TWW has just started. Symptoms so far: being grumpy with DH and a slightly upset tummy.

I can't remember who said it, but I completely agree about being a rubbish employee during the TWW! I think the next couple of weeks will be quite busy though, so hopefully that will make them go more quickly.

Nightowlagain · 01/11/2014 23:23

Hi everyone, hope you're all coping ok with the dreaded waiting!

Sam it's so annoying isn't it, I had a month like that when I was a week late which I never am, but BFNs. Then if course I came on.

I'm only 2dpo so not much chance of any symptoms yet, but it doesn't stop me over analysing every little twinge. It's so frustrating! I don't tell DH about my obsessing, I prefer to just keep it to myself. He would get fed up I think!

Anyway, only 12 days to go...

Mumwannabe82 · 01/11/2014 23:44

Hi everyone, 1DPO today, I hate this bit because there is nothing you can do but wait, wait and wait some more xx think I have figured out that my luteus phase is 12 so AF due on the 12th nov, 7th cycle and first time trying.
Good luck everyone xxx

CrazyCatMomma · 02/11/2014 00:44

Hi guys, watching this thread with interest! Hope you don't mind if I tag along..?

I'm 7dpo after our very first cycle for DC1. Have been tracking my BBT and CM since Feb so think I can tell when ovulation is imminent, but since DTD have bought some clear blue ov tests for cycle #2.

Ever the pessimist..! waves

northgoingzax · 02/11/2014 07:04

Hiya - I 'm TTC#2 Cycle 3 8dpo only symptom is very bloated look 5 months pregnant already and trousers hardly fit - but more likely that I'm just getting fatter :( AF due Saturday 8th November so will try and test then. When trying for ds I was going to have a big drinking session 2 days before AF and got a BFN then tested 2 days later and got BFP. SO that suggests that if I tested earlier this time round it won't show up. Best of luck with everyone on the 2ww - let us know what symptoms you have

Joey0805 · 02/11/2014 08:54

Patientlywaiting - thanks for the tip! Guess where I shall be going this avo?

Now CD29, 11DPO, no symptoms of pregnancy or AF coming (but they seem to be the same!!) so just waiting. Booorrriiinnnggg...

Patientlywaiting2014 · 02/11/2014 10:22

Good luck fx i just jUst came on like spotting this morning so I will try again next month and then rejoin you girls, I unless you all have your BFP of course :) xx

loopylou1984 · 02/11/2014 10:36

Night owl - so far it's been a 3 week wait! Always assumed that when af was finally late I would poas and get a positive! So annoying!
Patiently - we don't have a Lloyd pharmacy where I live! Aghhhh!!

Welcome and good luck to everyone else Smile

thisismypassword · 02/11/2014 10:59

I'm 7/8 dpo. I literally have no symptoms, boobs aren't sore either. 4/5 dpo O was taken by surprise by a pinch in my lower left abdomen. It only lasted an instant and I've not felt it since. Possibly felt a little tenderness in that area. I would say I couldn't pulled a muscle, but I was sitting down watching TV at the time!
