2 dpo and I'm already twitchy, it's going to be a long tww

[Vicsteur81]

Anyone else in the same boat?

Vic the tww is so hard isn't it! We overlook every small detail 😂. Do you temp?

@LoveRainbow02 I'm so glad it makes other people a bit crazy too. Makes me feel at least part of a crazy clan. I don't temp, when I get up can vary a huge amount thanks to shift work. I've also never worked out if when I take my thyroxine has the potential to affect my temperatures.

How are you doing today?

Aw I see. I started temping this month, previous months I wasn't very reliable with it lol.

I've still got slight cramps and a lot of watery cervical fluid. Wish I could fast forward time to see my outcome lol.

How are you feeling?

Hi all. Hopping on in.
I'm 2DPO and convinced this is it... just like last month and the month before
Going to be a long wait! Using two apps to try to get more accurate tracking but not doing temps or anything too scientific.
Help me not waste a fortunate by POAS too early, I need to sit on my hands!

Welcome @TinyBarista I'm 7dpo and trying to sit on my hands too. Also symptom spotting like a crazy woman!
I'm not temp tracking, times I wake up are all over the place. I did opk's this month, have you tried that at all?

This site is really useful www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/pregnancy_test_calculator.php
has stopped me testing so far.......that may not last much longer though!

I think I'm 7dpo, although took norethisterone last period (long awaited holiday!) and was at Glastonbury over my fertile time. Did an LH test when I got home (v early Monday morning) weakly positive, then negative 12 hours later, so think peak was whilst I was away. DTD early Monday and Tuesday, so possible, but not our best attempt lol, so trying not to get too hopeful,
Am trying to ignore it this week, but now I'm on a 2ww thread, that usually starts me on the obsessing and testing! No symptoms that I've been aware of so far...

Also At 7dpo @WineAndTiramisu, trying to wait until at least Saturday to test, but I think its going to be a loooooong week! Very jealous about Glastonbury by the way.

Saturday would be a good day to test, if I make it that long!

Help a beginner out, what does OPK entail?
My Ovia app says 9 days to test. 9 days!

I'm quite new to this all as well @TinyBarista.
My app tells me when I'm in my fertile period, I use cheapy internet opk tests every day during my fertile period to confirm when I'm ovulating. The darkest test is ovulation day. Takes a couple of cycles to get the hang of it. Does that all make sense?

I've got the joyful added back up of ovulation being rather painful thanks to endo surgery and my ovaries being stuck to my pelvic wall! Yay!

Buy some LH testing strips from Amazon, they're pretty cheap, pee on them twice a day from about 8 days post period.
When test line is as dark or darker then control line, time to have lots of baby making sex!

In future months you can POAS less often (I only need 2 days worth now) as long as your cycle is regular.

The positive equals the LH surge that usually precedes ovulation by 24-36 hours

I see! Thanks Wine and Vics - of course, I'm deluding myself thinking 'well I won't buy any just yet because of course in 8 days time I will have my BFP' ... of course!

Today I'm 6 DPO according to my app. I've only just started doing my temp so I won't be able to tell anything from it for a while. Due to test on the 11th/12th if AF doesn't arrive.

This tww wait is driving me crazy. I had period pain yesterday morning, which was bad enough for me to take a paracetamol and I also had to undo the button on my jeans I felt that bloated. Had a slight back ache in bed last night. An now today absolutely nothing so far other than a slight head ache. I no it's too early to be implantation pain etc, unless I ovulated earlier than my app predicted.

7dpo here and I don't appear to have any symptoms lol apart from the occasional cramping but this has calmed down in the last few days.

Testing day hurry up!!

I'm 8dpo.....I may have tested this morning.

Oh no vic! Step away from the tests 😂.

My tests won't arrive until Friday so I have no choice but to wait lol.

@Vicsteur81 my mums just been round. So I filled her in on my tww and she was trying to get me to test! She's worse than me. Plus she should no better, she's a midwife!

I'm due to POAS on the 14th at the earliest and I've already got butterflies every time I think about it (which is virtually all the time)

It's our first time ttc and this is our first proper cycle, and I already can't contain my excitement

Due to test on 14th! 🙈

I have a night out tonight with work. 2/3 dpo. Really bad time to drink?

I'm sure you'll be ok to have a couple @RosieRo123. Lots of people probably have nights out before realising they are pregnant. I know it's hard as you don't want to risk your chances.

Vicsteur81 - do I assume bfn?! Step away from the tests...

RosieRo123 - no implantation yet, so fine to drink! (Some may disagree with me lol...)

Same here had MMC April..was mix up at hospital after my d and c with results so when back on pull...came off it again 4 weeks ago when I knew all was okay..no proper period as yet but have every symptom going not sure when I can test as don't know where in cycle I am...so POAS everyday from now haha x

Yeah @WineAndTiramisu it was a bfn.

I solomely swear I will not test again until at least the day after tomorrow. I'm so impressed with all you ladies holding off!

I'm aiming to test on Saturday when I will be 12dpo 😊. I've woken up this morning to achy dull cramps again near pubic bone and a temp spike. Trying not to symptom spot but i can't help it 😂!
