TTC and 2ww

Hello ladies! So we're currently trying for baby #2. Came off implant in december. AF showed 1st February then again 30th March. My friend suggested the app Flo. According to the app if im regular i should have ovulated around 12th. We DTD every other day from AF finishing. Now im having mild cramps in lower belly. (I think its in my head though!) Just got to enjoy the 2ww (yayy)
Anyone else ttc and their brain finding symptoms everywhere?

@louste yes i totally agree.. although i did have a bitch fit at hubby last night so im unsure. And yeah im really confused with what's going on. I'm starting to think it could be AF due but then I'm also thinking I'm sure i would have noticed if i was having this before hand.
Hmmm 9 days to wait until AF due... :(

Hi everyone,
I'm on cd 25 so not much longer to wait hopefully before I either start spotting symptoms or AF shows. I've only had two cycles since coming off the pill and they were 28 days then 26 days which is much shorter than I expected. Pre-pill I had 35 day cycles so assumed they would revert back to that kind of length.
No symptoms yet. Slight achy left boob but not reading too much into that as I have huge norks and often get niggly aches.
I think it has helped having 4yo and 6yo dd at home for the Easter hols as it's kept my mind of the 2ww somewhat!

CatRen27 · 18/04/2017 12:39

@stuckinthehouse I love the word norks! Ha.

Fingers crossed everyone, hope that af stays away

pocketfullofsunshine · 18/04/2017 14:10

@CatRen & @stuckinthehouse i have never heard the word norks haha!! But i dont pay attention to booby pain because in the same boat with the aches..

Although today im still cramping and also getting a pulsating feeling in my lady garden.. no idea what that was. I was reaching up to put shopping away at the time... hmmm xxx

@pocketfullofsunshine I have had a pulsating feeling all day down there and wasn't sure what it was. I had a pain in my right side last night followed by this all day.... fingers crossed it means something!

I'm driving myself crazy

pocketfullofsunshine · 18/04/2017 20:08

*@Faye@ Oooo!! I really hope it does.. I cannot imagine doing this to myself month after month haha!!
Cramps and pulsing lady garden hehe

pocketfullofsunshine · 18/04/2017 22:28

So, I've gone from a pulse feeling to having a shooting pain. Only twice but it felt like i had a lightning bolt shot up my vagina haha.. hmm wonder what this means x

Turns out being at work is a great distraction technique for symptom spotting. Felt absolutely nothing today! Ha

pocketfullofsunshine · 20/04/2017 07:56

@CatRen I'm so sorry I thought I replied to this! Turns out I didn't press 'post message'
I was mowing the grass on our front garden yesterday which helped. Although gave me a bit of back ache (easily done since DS)
Last night I had a few twinges I just put it down to normal twinges I never noticed before. This morning I feel slightly strange, a bit nauseous but not enough to make me sick. Unsure what it is. Still have 7 days to go until AF due :(
How are you feeling?

OP posts:
Fayemay27 · 21/04/2017 07:39

How is everyone today?

AF is due tomorrow for me as I'm usually 27/28 day cycle. I'm trying to hold off testing as I hate the disappointment. Only symptom I have is tiredness....I'm literally falling asleep at my desk.

stuckinthehouse · 21/04/2017 07:50

Ooh Faye I'm on day 28 too! When are you planning on testing? I think I'm going to wait until I start getting some proper symptoms before testing as I haven't really had any real ones yet, only imagined ones 😂

pocketfullofsunshine · 21/04/2017 08:59

Hey ladies.
Doing well. Been keeping busy so i don't notice cramps etc else I'll end up going crazy. Im now 9dpo and 6 days until AF is due. Ive tested twice and god a BFN :(

How are you both and when do you plan to test?

@Faye sounds very promising hun!!!

stuckinthehouse · 21/04/2017 09:58

DH and I are away on a conference next week Thursday-Saturday so I might test Thursday morning. That will be cd34.

stuckinthehouse · 21/04/2017 10:00

Pocket STOP TESTING!!!!! It will save you the disappointment of BFNs and save you a shed load of money too. I know it's hard but stay strong woman! Grin

Jellybelly91 · 21/04/2017 10:55

Hi ladies! I'm a long time lurker on MN haven't posted for a very long time. Me & DH are ttc number 2 we have been trying for around 10 months now :/

I'm due af in 2 day, couldn't help myself and tested 3 days ago and got a very faint line but starting to think it was an evap line cos all other tests are negative.
Hope you guys don't mind me jumping onto the thread

Smile
pocketfullofsunshine · 21/04/2017 12:30

@stuck i know i shouldnt have but i just couldnt help it. I have a huuuuge stash of them and they were just waiting for me haha. Feel really disappointed now that ive seen 2 BFN and now think this isnt my month :(
Why cant i be one of the women who gets a BFP at 7dpo?! Would be ideal! Haha

@jelly oh hun!! Test tomorrow or in a couple of days if AF doesnt show. FX its a BFP and not an evap :(
They really should fix the tests so we dont see evaps.

Fayemay27 · 21/04/2017 18:47

@stuckinthehouse think I might test in the morning if af still not here. I have been getting some cramps today so not feeling too hopeful now. Haha most of my symptoms have been imaginary 🤔

@pocketfullofsunshine BFN are so disappointing. This is my first month not doing it until at least af is due.

@Jellybelly91fx for you! When will you next test?

Jellybelly91 · 21/04/2017 18:55

Trying not to until at least Sunday! I have terrible willpower thought xD

Jellybelly91 · 21/04/2017 18:56

Though*

Sanchezwasntdirty · 21/04/2017 19:00

Hey everyone hope you don't mind me joining! I ovulated on the 3rd currently 5 days late, cycles 26-28 days normally, tested 3 days ago bfn and waiting to test again in the morning x

pocketfullofsunshine · 21/04/2017 23:38

Online if you type in google theres an implantation calculator based on when you O'd. I used that and it said the earliest I should be testing is in 2 days lol..
AF due 27th, had cramps from 4-9dpo and not had any since.. FX its a sign!!

@Faye very disappointing hun, no idea why I did it to myself. I knew what the result was going to be!

@Sanchez ooh FX for your BFP, keep us posted hun! have you had any symptoms?

OP posts:
stuckinthehouse · 22/04/2017 10:18

Faye did you test?

Sanchezwasntdirty · 22/04/2017 10:19

Pocket not really, normally get sore boobs few days before AF which I haven't as yet (sorry if tmi) I did get the usual pms symptom of my poor DP irritating the hell out of me for being alive. Unfortunately I've started spotting this morning so I think AF may be on the way 😢.

Fingers crossed for the 27th for you x

Jellybelly91 · 22/04/2017 10:34

Due af tomorrow. Here's hoping! Need to find some thing to distract myself until then haha

pocketfullofsunshine · 22/04/2017 12:16

@Sanchez Oh hun! Well hopefully it isn't AF, I'm still hopeful for you!
If the witch gets you, then I hope May is your month for a sticky bean :D

I think I'll be out too, just don't 'feel' pregnant. Granted I didn't with DS either, but I really think AF is going to get me. I've done a cheapy test that I have plenty stored away, still BFN :(

@Jelly Eeek! Keep me posted! 5 days to wait for me :(
