2 week wait - again!

It's that time of the month again. The dreaded two week wait. 3rd month of trying and 1st month using ovulation kits.

Last month I convinced myself I was pregnant and obviously wasn't so trying not to do that this month.

Finding the whole process very draining to be honest. DH and I don't have very high sex drives. We're normally once a week people and are both fine with that. So having to do the deed when neither of us really want to is not as fun as I'd hoped! But we managed 3 times in ovulation week this month so fingers crossed.

Anyone else want a 2ww buddy? Smile

User if you're having sex every single day then tracking ovulation will make absolutely no difference. So you probably will never need to use OPK unless you suspect you're not ovulating. Symptoms like you describe usually happen around week 5-6 so you may be coming down with a tummy bug.

Oh ladies I'm so sorry this isn't your month 😏💐

I'm still here cd28 which is normally my af day. Still got some cramps. I'm about to do my first ever test but I'm so scared!!!! Xx

stuckinny · 25/11/2016 19:37

Sarah sending you lots of good luck.

I'm sorry to hear AF has come to so many.

sarahboro1 · 25/11/2016 19:51

It was negative 😥 Haven't a clue what is going on. Xx

stuckinny · 25/11/2016 19:54

I'm sorry. Flowers When are you due? It may be worth testing after you're late.

sarahboro1 · 25/11/2016 20:22

Today!! I've had cramps on and off since Monday and I'm not normally late, usually early or dot on so I just can't understand why I've been in pain all week for nothing!! Xx

stuckinny · 25/11/2016 22:57

I'm sorry. I don't have any useful advice, just virtual hugs.

I just caved and got a negative. Going to try to wait until Sunday or Monday now.

sarahboro1 · 25/11/2016 23:00

Thanks stuckinny!! Feel so rubbish now.

Fx for your next test being super positive!! Xx

stuckinny · 25/11/2016 23:27

You and me both. It's just after 6 here and I'm in my jammies already having a pity party. Lol.

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 07:36

That's ok! Sometimes we just need a little wallow in some self pity!! Then we can get dusted off ready for the December bus!! Xx

user1471496670 · 26/11/2016 07:46

Hopefully just too early for us Sarah and Stuckinny! Fx for lots of BFPs next week! Xx

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 07:59

Do you think we could still turn positive now? I'm 11days post ovulation, wouldn't I be positive by now? Xx

user1471496670 · 26/11/2016 08:55

I'm probably (based on guesswork) about 13 days post ovulation.
It's not over until AF arrives! My best friend had 6 BFNs with her first and didn't get a BFP until she was 6wks! He's now a strapping 8yr old! Smile

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 09:01

Oh my I didn't know that!!! Fx ladies!!! Xx

lilyborderterrier · 26/11/2016 10:42

Hi well I woke up to cramps, headache and brown spots of blood on my pants. A big 5 days before I'm due on Shock so is it implantation bleeding or not ?? Hhhhmm I wonder, it's been a really tough 2 weeks with my nearly 4 year old, and we haven't had sex for 8 days so I'd sacked it off till after Christmas but now I wonder ? Fingers crossed.

Sending hugs to everyone on here. It's a tough business this making babies. Who knew when we were young and carefree.

Ohb0llocks · 26/11/2016 11:53

I got what I think was an Evap line yesterday. Blue dye test I don't trust them!

WantingBaby1 · 26/11/2016 13:39

Fx for us all still in this month's 2 wk wait! Who else is testing soon?

I'm testing on Monday if no af.

Have a nice weekend ladies.

stuckinny · 26/11/2016 18:18

I'm out. AF has come with a vengeance.

Fingers crossed for those left.

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 18:23

I'm not sure when to test again? I got a negative yesterday which was my due date. Is it best to test first thing when I get up or does it not matter? Xx

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 18:24

Aww no stuckinny, sorry you're out. Xx

user1471496670 · 26/11/2016 18:41

Awww sorry Stuckinny xx
Sarah I'd definitely use your first morning wee! Maybe wait until mid-week if you can? I'm waiting until Wed/Thurs 😳 Xx

user1471496670 · 26/11/2016 18:49

If it's negative still, then the silver lining is this time next week I'll be in another country drinking wine with 5 of my girl friends! SmileWine

lilyborderterrier · 26/11/2016 19:54

I think my period has come 5 days early Angry not what I've googled implantation bleeding to be, I've got quite strong cramps, a headache and feel like I'm on my period. Annoying as I'm normally every 33 days so wasn't due until Tuesday.
I'm confused now as when I will next ovulate might have to try the tests.
But on the plus side I've got a child free weekend away with my partner next weekend so going to relax and have a few beers and have fun.
Maybe it'll be next month?

blackcherries · 26/11/2016 21:09

Got some mild throbbing in the ovary area but on the opposite side to where I was ovulating last week ... wasn't holding up much hope this month anyway as we've had D&V Sad but hope this doesn't mean AF is on her way early...

sarahboro1 · 26/11/2016 21:42

I had ovary ache in the week blackcherries, fx it's a good sign for you.

User147 I'll wait as long as possible, bit worried about doing another now that I've had a negative one.

Lily I would definitely try opks if you are unsure when you will ovulate.

Positive vibes to everyone!! Xx
