This 2ww is dragging even more than usual, I'm only on cd18 of a 33day cycle Sad

Anyone else in the 2ww needing some support?

Me too BFN 11po !
I'm waiting for surgery to have a fibroid removed that could be impacting on fertility so I'm not surprised BFN.

Is anyone else testing soon?! Hope lots of BFP's Smile

Bubblegum89 · 08/01/2017 10:45

Here to join the bfn at 11dpo brigade lol I knew it would be tbh. I'm awaiting a diagnosis for uterine scarring so knew I was being to optimistic as scarring stops implantation. Think I'll just wait for af to come now :(

BlueSkies87 · 08/01/2017 11:16

Sorry to hear it was bfn for you both Bubblegum and Hopefulbunny. I am putting off testing atm... Might crack tomorrow morning. Have a major headache this morning though and think that AF might be on the way. x

AFireInside · 08/01/2017 11:18

If AF arrives this cycle, I am definitely going to start OPKs and temping.
I presume internet cheapies are the way to go? I saw an OPK for £92 in boots yesterday Shock...

Sian868 · 08/01/2017 11:48

Sounds like we're not having much luck on this thread so far! 10dpo and bfn here and I mean like complete stark white bfn :( I know it's still early but I'm not holding out much hope for this cycle! Anyone having better luck? We need some positive stories!

Quick question, do you guys exercise in the 2ww? I've got a post Xmas work out DVD I want to start to bust the Xmas flab but just not sure jumping around is a good idea if it might knock a bean from sticking?!

Sian868 · 08/01/2017 11:50

Oh and Afire yes try ebay for ovulation tests much much cheaper than boots!! I've used them and seem to work for me... just a bit more fiddly than the more expensive brands!

Bubblegum89 · 08/01/2017 12:04

Mine was stark white as well sian lol like, I've never seen a more negative test in my life

Anna2006 · 08/01/2017 12:13

😔😔😔 sorry girls with all the negatives! Where are all the BFP's?! Hopefully some will come along very soon.

I hate the stark white tests grrr. Like a kick in the teeth x

Sian868 · 08/01/2017 14:06

What has resulted in you potentially having uterine scaring Bubblegum if you don't mind me asking? Is that something from a previous birth?

Lindsaymarie89 · 08/01/2017 14:27

sian868 i got BFN mid week on what i think was 10dpo too! I think im out too this month but clinging to a teenie tiny bit of hope until AF arrives :)
Fingers crossed for everybody due to test! Atleast one of all us TTC must have been successful over the xmas and new year period :)

AFireInside · 08/01/2017 14:59

Thanks for the recommendation sian.
lindsay Can I join you clinging to hope please?!

Twizzletoes · 08/01/2017 15:00

Hello All - I'm 11 dpo (I think) and negative this morning. Am I falsely living in hope that I've tested too early? I think AF is due on Friday....

Lindsaymarie89 · 08/01/2017 15:14

AFireInside yessss course you can!
Twizzletoes I read that its unlikely to get a BFP earlier than 14dpo. Although can't remember where i read that so unsure how accurate that information is! Dont want to give people false hope, but they do say its not over till AF arrives ;)

Twizzletoes · 08/01/2017 15:18

Lindsaymarie89 thanks for that, I got an overwhelming urge to POAS so just did it... spur of the moment thing. I'll sit on my hands for a few more days!

AFireInside · 08/01/2017 15:21

Yes I think lindsay is right, most tests are more likely to work at 14dpo. I'm hoping that's why I had a bfn yesterday!
Has anyone had any 'symptoms'?! naughty question!

yellowpostitnote · 08/01/2017 15:30

Hello second time round for me and nope I'm no less chilled! I think it's because I'm 40 soon Confused!

I'm 10dpo today, tested with a cheapie this morning as no others to hand. Bfn.

I looked back through my records and found I only got a tiny line on 11dpo last time. Which would be tomorrow! But my cycles are less accurate this time and I didn't temp this time either, but got a good opk. CD20, cycle usually 24 but might be 22-27 so no idea what to expect!

I've had very achey boobs for two days but I can't work out if it's because I demonstrated several log rolls to my class on a hard floor on Thursday or they're really achey! ConfusedGrin

TryingForNo1 · 08/01/2017 16:57

Hi ladies,

Mind if I jump on? Finding the few days wait difficult!

TTC #1
Cycle #4
CD 25
DPO 8?

First 3 months I had 27 day cycles and ovulated on day 14 so was quite relaxed this month. Tried one opk on day I normally ovulate (last Wednesday) and it was negative. Tried another Friday morning and it was mega positive!

So my AF should be due Tuesday but I suppose it could be later. I don't normally see any symptoms, however I had a bad headache and left side stomach pains on Friday which I had to sleep off.

Yesterday and today I've had tingly numb feet and fingertips! Also sore sides of my breast, under armpits. Feel warm, but no temperature, couldn't sleep, been seeing lots and really bloated.

IC was negative today but I know it's early and I was up to the toilet loads during the night too. First time I've had symptoms but I'm scared I'm getting my hopes up for nothing.

Me and DHs birthdays this weekend so would be lovely present!

Bubblegum89 · 08/01/2017 17:04

sian I had a surgical abortion (due to complications Sad ) and a few days afterwards, I developed a pelvic infection. They think either one of those things has caused it. It's not been officially diagnosed but was found on an ultrasound and so it was suggested that's what it was.

Anna2006 · 08/01/2017 17:51

Sorry bubblegum that's sounds frustrating and maybe a bit worrying for you. But still as they haven't officially diagnosed yet it could be something that isn't going to hinder any chances. Let's hope so hey 😊

I had a little cry earlier, first time in well over 2 weeks I've been emotional about the mmc. It just all gets too much sometimes and I want to be pregnant again so desperately! I know our time will come though. 6DPO and praying! X

Sian868 · 08/01/2017 17:53

Oh I'm sorry to hear that Bubblegum. Hopefully they will be able to do something to help it if you do find out that is the problem x

AFireInside · 08/01/2017 19:01

Sorry to hear this bubblegum & anna.
I think I have a metallic taste in my mouth but not sure symptom spotting Hmm.

Jetpack86 · 08/01/2017 19:27

Hey girls,

Boots are doing their 3 for 2 in fertility and pregnancy products again for those going to buy opks and tests this month. Might order some frer...but worried I'll be tempted to test early Blush

user1471495191 · 08/01/2017 19:54

Hey ladies! whispers I think I might have a VSFP (very small faint positive!!) eeeek!

Here are some pics I've tried to enhance with photo editor...
