Anyone else in the 2ww?

I am currently 6DPO
Cycle #3
TTC #3 (but first baby with my DP) as current DC are 6 & 10

Cycles have been like clockwork every month so far, I think I had a chemical pregnancy last month as faint BFPs two days and a day before AF arrived.

Hate the anxiety of a 2ww! Sad

You guys! Thank you for being so lovely about it. I'm over the moon Smile
Feeling pretty horrendous, which I didn't have last cycle, which I take to be a positive sign.
Jaffacakes, enjoy your wine! Hope to hear good news for you super soon x
July, fingers and toes crossed for you, no AF is such a good sign! Hope the wedding was fun!
Slmc, hello! We'll all agree the whole TTC thing is enough to make anyone feel a bit crazy so you're in good company. There are all sorts of reasons AF can be late, sometimes it feels like it's trying to mess with you, but your symptoms sound very hopeful so I guess just keep on testing. Good luck!

AnneLovesGilbert · 12/09/2016 22:40

Welcome EJ, the 2ww is a bitch, however you think your cycle went. Don't give up hope x

slmc · 12/09/2016 22:48

I will keep you updated!! it's so nice to know that I'm the only one :) I need to be more patient, hpts are not cheap! Shock

Hi all, can I join the 2ww gang? Only 3dpo so early doors but I must say I am feeling a bit weird. Can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm feeling slight pressure down there on and off which I've never had before and I'm also having light twangy cramps. I complained loudly in the office today that There is a strong smell, like burning glue, and I was met with a room full of blank expressions, so not really sure what's happening. Feeling tired and congested but that could just be a cold coming. Only time will tell Smile

KittyWindbag · 16/09/2016 13:09

have been feeling crappy for the past two days with bad migraines and then today I started getting achey like my period was about to start. I had a little brown discharge which is not uncommon for me, although AF isn't due for four days.

I took a test with afternoon pee. what do you guys think? Me and husband can see a line, but almost can't believe it.

That 2WW time again, wishing the days away!
KittyWindbag · 16/09/2016 13:09

forgot to add I'm 11dpo

lousylear · 16/09/2016 14:52

Looks positive. Try a frer tomorrow morning.

KittyWindbag · 17/09/2016 05:11

I tested again this morning using another internet cheapie as I can't get frer where I live. I had a very similarly faint line, not darker.

I feel anxious about it. yesterday and this morning I've had lower back pain and a pulling, achey, period pains-like sensation. I've also been extremely tired, napping during the day, and migraine-y.

But I'm worried it's going to end in a chemical as the Line hasn't got any darker. I want this so much. It's torturous waiting.

Masweetpea1 · 17/09/2016 08:24

Hi all
Can i join you? I'm driving myself slowly insane with the tww, so thought i could join others in the same boat!

Ttc #2
Dd 15mth old
Cycle 6 (mc at 8 wks in july)
7dpo
27 day cycle

I'm symptom spotting which my husband keeps telling me not to do..... Easier said than done! I'm really tired, cramps at 4 and 5dpo, dry cm on knickers (tmi!), nausea. Just a bit worried I'm 'thinking' myself into being pregnant and all of these symptoms realistically could just be pms.

Aaaaarghhhhhhhh!!

Xx

JulyLady7 · 17/09/2016 10:54

Hi All,

Just thought I'd update you that I got my BFP this morning! Can't quite believe it, but we're elated! It's so good to talk on here!

Congratulations on your BFP kitty. A line is a line! It is all a waiting game, but it's likely the line will get darker in a couple of days. I'm not testing again, I waited til a week after af was due to test - I'm nervous at the best of times and after mc in April, I'm just gonna take each day as it comes!

AnneLovesGilbert · 17/09/2016 23:17

july! What bloody brilliant news! So so happy for you, enjoy it. Sending you a hug.

Head over to the May antenatal thread!

Kitty, those sound like really positive symptoms! x

KittyWindbag · 18/09/2016 02:00

congratulations July!! X

Letsdothis41 · 18/09/2016 18:06

Hi all, can I join in please! the 2 WW is actually driving me a little crazy ! my stats are

Age -41
Cycle #1
TTC#1
CD 25
?dpo maybe 10? as I only went by EWCM as OPK hadn't arrived yet!

I know that it's highly unlikely that at my age I've fallen pregnant the first month of trying but I swear I am feeling all sorts of weird symptoms that I probably had every other month but am now so aware of every little twinge!

Congrats to all who have had their BFP! amazing news I can't wait to join in properly if I get there keeping a PMA!

jaffacakes16 · 20/09/2016 08:12

I'm on hols with limited internet so just catching up - congratulations July and Kitty! This seems to be a lucky thread. I hope you're all keeping well :)
I'm back round to fertile week again so almost in the hellish 2ww once more.

JulyLady7 · 21/09/2016 18:14

Thank you everyone! So lovely of you!

Good luck jaffa! Hoping 2ww goes quickly!

MrsMagpie84 · 22/09/2016 12:42

Congratulations July!

I think this 2ww is going to kill me. 10 dpo, BFN yesterday which was expected, but cannot believe how tired I am at the moment. DH cooked me dinner last night while i dozed off on the sofa, and I've just had a 30 minute nap in the car on my lunch break Grin Fingers crossed its a good sign x

jaffacakes16 · 28/09/2016 12:34

Anyone else back round to their 2ww again? I think I'm between 1-3 DPO and feeling very sorry for myself. Don't think I have much hope this month as I'm so stressed with one thing and another...if I were an egg I'd not implant in me!

newbie6 · 28/09/2016 22:01

Hi all,

Can I join? I'm only 1 day into the 2 ww and not overly hopeful as only had one attempt but hey ho, you never know!

TTC no 3 so we've both decided that it would be lovely if we have managed to conceive but if we haven't we are counting our blessings. I'm 41 too so guess our chances are lower but sending everyone lots of positive thoughts. Congratulations to those of you who have your BFP's and wish you happy and healthy pregnancies.

Xx

lousylear · 28/09/2016 22:31

Hi. I'm 41 too. Ttc #4! Cycle #2. AF due tomorrow! #1 with new partner. We were on hols during my fertile week therefore dtd every day. So really hoping it worked as I'm not getting any younger. Fx for everyone.

jaffacakes16 · 29/09/2016 07:31

Welcome newbie, what age are your other 2? You never know you could hit it lucky first month.

Going by my temps I may not have ovulated this month Hmm very annoying. Let's hope I just have wonky temps and that's not the case.

newbie6 · 29/09/2016 18:59

Thanks ladies and good luck to you both. I have a 3.5yr old and a 16mth old. I'm on 2 days post ovulation (I think!) and I'm feeling nauseous and dizzy but not getting my hopes up as took us 6 months to conceive with no 2 son and yet first attempt with no 1 so who knows plus we only managed to DTD once (my ovulation test told me I was peak so hopefully a chance) xx

jaffacakes16 · 30/09/2016 14:04

Newbie I think we're on the same dpo. It looks like my temp was a blip and I did ovulate after all.

Let the countdown begin!

jaffacakes16 · 30/09/2016 14:05

Lousy any news with you?

lousylear · 30/09/2016 20:48

Not testing yet. No sign of AF though.

jaffacakes16 · 01/10/2016 13:36

Impressive self control lousy. Fingers crossed for you!
