Starting 2 Week Wait

[Lovewatchingrainfall]

Just as my title says as of today I am starting my TTW. I wish I could just sleep until now till then. Good luck anyone else starting there's.

Oh jeez, *congratulations that should read.

Welcome frazzle I had the metallic taste too, and had a BFP so it is a sign but then I also cracked my tooth not long after on a bit of fudge (never normally eat fudge now I know why)

Good luck on your TTW and let us know how it goes. The signs/ symptoms all seem good. x

Thanks love. The only other thing I can blame the metal taste on is I didn't take my electric toothbrush to Florence so I used a normal one and maybe I didn't brush as thoroughly as I would have done with my electric. Who bloody know eh.

I'm really tempted to test this weekend when I'll be about 9/10 DPO. That's way too early... right?
I got my BFP last time (my MMC) at about the same time, but I'm scared it will be too soon this time. I guess last time we weren't even trying so taking a test was symply to rule out pregnancy. I didn't actually imagine I would be pg! Unlike this time.

agghhh *simply

Can I add illiteracy to my symptoms?

Hi Frazzle welcome to threat TWW. I hope you have a smooth one. And thanks for the sweet comment re my torturous one. I'm still none the wiser because I missed the EPU walk in this morning. AUGH!

Thread not threat lol

Oh no! What now? Wait another day?

Frazzle I would leave it a couple of days I tested at 10dpo and got a no left it a couple of days and got my yes. If you do test and it's a no then maybe test in a few days. Keep us updated

Fran that's not good what is your plan now? Back to the doctors could you phone the EPU and explain and see if they could see you. x

Good idea. I will try and abstain!

Hey Frazzle... I phoned them and left a message but got no reply. My local EPU a AWFUL. It's kinda why I've been dragging my heels about going. I went there when I had my MC. They told me I was MCing in the corridor!!!!

Plus side my boobs are showing signs of pregnancy... They are tingly and my nipples are darker... If things keep going in that direction I might start to think there's a chance it stuck.

Hi all thought I'd join your chat...
I'm only 2dpo I have a son who is 4 already been trying to fall since April last year I finally did fall in November but miscarried at 8 weeks in Jan but baby stopped growing at 6 was the worst experience ever. Trying since I Feb after I had a period after my erpc... hoping this month I fall.. done the deed Sunday morning and Tuesday night and I was ovulating yesterday fingers crossed x

First time TTC. First cycle and AF due in 2 days, just feel like im getting my period so dont think i've been successful!

Been getting really bad pain in my tummy tonight, both cramping feeling and pain. So not looking to hopeful with this one sticking, Have tried not to get too attached. Just a waiting game. Am approx 4week 4days. Currently feeling a bit down and not sure who really to talk to.

Hope eeveryone else is okay.

Oh love, hang in there. It's normal to have cramps in early pregnancy. If you want to DM me we can talk as much as you need to. Massive Hugs. Xxx

Fran ugghh, that does sound like a shit EPU . What a horrid experience.
But good news about your boobs!

Love as Fran says, please hang in there, totes normal to have cramping, sometimes it can be painful as your uterus stretches.

Charlotte Hi. I'm so sorry for your loss. I also had a MMC in February. I was nearly 9 weeks. It really is the worst experience a woman can ever go through, I think. Doesn't matter how many weeks you are, it's like losing a limb and utterly soul destroying. I'm still climbing out of the dark hole I fell into but it's much easier now than it was. I found TTC again helps and gives hope. So I'm wishing you loads of luck.

I'm symptom spotting like a crazy woman. I'm sure I'm overthinking everything. But I've had more of those stretchy niggles you get in early preg last night and this morning. AF not due until next Thursday (ish) as long as my luteal phase is 14 days...
I've not told DP of my pregnancy suspicions yet as he's so up and down on whether or not he wants to try again now, as we're in the process of moving. Luckily the week I ovulated (last week) he was all for it. But he got cold feet again last night, said no more trying. At least until we actually move in . He's stressed the mortgage we've been offered will be taken away from us at the drop of a hat, long story but it's due to ex-husband having parking tickets and court letters sent to my address (I half own current flat with ex. DP, the DC, and I are moving in together somewhere bigger). I'm rambling now, but it aint half a stress moving.

So I was going to tell him last night that I'm having symptoms, in the hope of a happy and positive evening and sharing hope together, but I decided best not!

What's happening with everyone else this morning? Any news?

Hi Charlotte. Hope your TTW doesn't drive you crazy, this thread is a good companion to see you through it though. Fx for you.

Frazzle: moving is so stressful and on top of the TWW. I hope the mortgage issue resolved itself. I'm sure your DP will be happy if you get a BFP.

Love: how are you feeling today? Have the cramps settled?

As for me, I have an appointment with the EPU on Monday morning so I should know what's what by Monday afternoon. I'm gonna test again tomorrow to see if that line is any stronger.

charlotte good luck with your TTW try not to worry to much and sorry about your Mc before.

Frazzle Good luck with a move, Not sure which one is more stressful the move or the TTW... keep us updated to when you test, and just general updates.

I am doing okay Fran still getting some cramps and a few twinges in the boobs. Not sure how i am doing really, will go to the doctors next week if i still feel like this. Let us know how you get on on Monday and if you test in the morning. Have you taken a digi test with the weeks, as a rough guideline?

Little How are you doing??

Sorry if missed anyone else out... How is everyone else in case i have. Fx for all.

Hiya

I've booked a reassurance scan for next Sunday as I need to do something to put my mind at ease. I'm not feeling very well at all and can't decide if it's normal or if things aren't going to plan as I didn't feel like this with my first. Just trying to get as much rest as possible.

Good luck to those of you in the 2ww and to those of your awaiting your BFPs or other news x

Aww little sorry to hear that you are not feeling the same. Let us know how you get on. How far along are you now. x

Welcome to all the newbies and I'm sorry to hear about people's mmc's :( Fx and baby dust to you all.

I'm 7dpo. No symptoms except the last three days I've been really tired. In-bed-at-7pm-tired which, as I'm a night-owl usually, is most unexpected. I nearly (or actually maybe did very,very briefly) fell asleep in the staff meeting on Wednesday! The Head happened to be on my table too, I hate to think what would have happened had I snored!

Hi all...I have been reading your messages for a couple of days now some over and over. Lol. Some of you are sure on a roller coaster and needs some hugs. So hugs to those that need them and congrats to those that have got your answers and deep breath to those that have been disappointed.

My story is a little different but you ladies seem to be a great group.

I am remarried, turning 40 in a week. My DH is 41 the day after I turn 40. I have a 12 year old and a 10 year old girls which my DH treats as his own. I am so lucky.

Anyways. Back in sept I came off the pill with the intention to put an IUD in but my period took a couple months to get sorta straightened out. My hubby and I have tossed the idea of having a baby back and forth but ... Well when my period was still going through adjustments of getting on track we thought maybe I was and ended up in a pretty heated discussion that lead to not a happy decision if I was. Turned out my period showed its face at day 45.

But In the last 4 months we still haven't protected put used the pull out method. My periods have been 33-26 in lengths for the last 3.

Well that updates you and brings you to today. I'm not sure what to think and kinda afraid to test again.... Here's the load down.

Mar 11th period
Mar 22nd - sorry TMI. Came on me but played with it after if you know what I mean.
Mar 27th - pink streak and brown spot for a couple hours only. And then mar 28th in am very very little brown spotting
Since about mar 31st sore breasts on and off. Cramps on and off. Headaches on and off. Tired.

April 9 - took a test bfn cd30 just took it cause I felt pregnant.

Now today cd36 and still no period. I have a test waiting but very scared to test now and see BFP as if I am not sure how I would tell him.

For the last three days I swore I was getting it with the cramps and sore boobs but nothing clear as day.

Taking my own deep breathes ... Anyways that's my story. Would love to hear your thoughts. Hope you don't mind me crashing your group. Hugs.

Good morning all.

Read your post this morning luvbein you sound like you are going through a lot too.
Maybe you need to take the test and then go from there. We are here to help and offer as much support as you need.
You never know he might total surprise you and be over the moon at the thought of a baby.
Keep us updated.

Well these cramps are annoying me know. Never really had them with PMS so maybe that's why. However did go to bed feeling a bit sick so maybe a good sign. Think I will buy another test next week to make sure things are okay. Will have to go to a different store to normal as the cashier at the normal one gives giving me disappointing looks when I buy another one and has advised me to try condoms or just give up.

Enjoy your weekend all and try and relax.

Well, Luv, I too think you should test. Your DH seems not too worried about a baby or he would push for an IUD, but I can appreciate you're apprehensive. Test and find out, then go from there.

Love, I am in shock that any cashier would say such a thing to you!! You keep going and buying pg tests from them with a defiant stare!!

I have had right pelvic/hip pain this morning for around 10mins and very tired last few days, with a temp dip today, currently 8dpo. Trying not to read anything into it all!

Hi all, hope you don't mind me joining! Just entering my TWW - the Ovia app says 13 days till I can test but what is the earliest you can test?? So, AF is due 2 weeks today but that seems a lifetime away!! When can I try an early test?? Thanks lovelies xx

Prosecco, implantation happens roughly 7-10 days after ovulation if you've conceived. So roughly 7dpo is the earliest, although it takes a while for hcg levels to be high enough for a test to detect. Some people get BFPs at 10dpo, some not until two weeks after AF is due! If you don't want to spend lots of money, and don't want to potentially keep seeing BFNs which can be soul destroying, it's advisable to wait until AF is due before testing. But you have to do what you feel! Me, I'm only testing before AF is due if I have loads of unusual symptoms. I've tested early other months, only to be disappointed.
