Venting my TWW on here!

It's my first ever two week wait - and has come after a year of meticulous pre-conception prep, planning, mapping, saving, charting, nutrition, supplementation, bloodworks - the works. All that prep for a year and then this month we start trying first time.

I have realised that I have officially gone crazy at 10 DPO. May I list my experiences of these last 10 days for any words of sanity kick up the backside?

DTD CD 9, 11, 12 (AI) and 13 (AI). Ovulated Day 13.

CD1- write off, down with frightful cold.
CD2- fluttery pinches on the left (ovulated left side)
CD3-4 - occasional light feelings of unease left abdomen nothing major
CD5 - nothing
CD6 - sharp pin pricks - about 30 of them in very lowest abdomen - like someone pricking me with a sharp pin.
CD6-7 Godawful Godawful AF cramps - carried Tampax around with me, dragging downward pulling sensation like AF has arrived and I need to go stick a tampon in NOW.
CD 7 - 5 am bbt at a low of 35.6
CD 8-10 - nothing to report bbt gone up to 36.6 and maintaining.

Please don't ask me how many ICs I have already POASed on. I am ashamed of myself.

Took super drug and first response today. Bfn. CD 10 - and still a bfn.

Is there still any hope? I guess first response not getting it means I am out. It's first response six days early after all.

Please don't judge that this is only the first cycle - maybe that's why, and maybe because of the yearlong prep - maybe ill be better next month.

Am I out for the month going by this list of symptoms? Am afraid nothing but pin pricking and cramps to report though. No nausea, bloating, headache etc etc.

Wow you are so prepared! Nobody will judge you here, but can I just ask what CD is? And don't worry about early negative, there's still plenty of time. I am a week late for my period and still getting negative so I think I'm probably out but you still have lots to play for if you are six days before due on.

Ahhhhh CD is meant to read DPO in my list!

CD stands for cycle day. Obviously in my list I am not referring to cycle days but rather days post ovulation so it should read DPO 1, DPO 2 etc.

Fingers crossed for you!

Just starting my tww & symptom spotting like crazy!!! Feel a sort of fluttery sensation (not sure how else to describe it) & feels like my uterus is being stretched sideways - in both directions, but not due AF until 6th Feb. Solo tempted to POAS but I know that it's WAAAY too soon.

This is my first two week wait, too and I have fluttering and the mildest of twinges on my lower left hand side of me and bloating. Now, these could easily be premenstrual as I am due on 5th Feb but it seems early enough to feel hopeful. Totally understand all the POAS activity and symptom checking. I am so there! And trying best to not test before 5th! Good luck everyone.

I have to hide all the tests i've done
..yup....little sticks of pee hidden all round the house. DH doesn't understand why I can't wait...neither do I and it doesn't help that i keep using first responce so thats like fiver a pop! On the other thread about the 2ww someone went to the doctor who explained how first response is basically a con an you're better off just waiting till missed period. Easier said than none! Xx

Hello ladies,
This is my first tww after an early mc in December - gave myself a month off for cycle to settle down.

Symptom spotting like crazy.

Currently 3dpo - my face has erupted in spots and I am spotting in ewcm (sorry tmi) also a little crampy in my left side.

Why does the tww feel so long!!
