Anyone want to join in the ups and downs of the 2ww this month?

Im 2/3 dpo, so AF due 25th/26th July. A bit unsure when I ovulated - got positive opk on cd10, temp drop cd11, temp rise cd12 which has continued until today (cd14). Natural cycles thinks I ov'd on cd12 but I think it's more likely to be 11 - what do you think? Anyhow, we only managed to hs once during my fw this month (it was on cd10 very late at night so poss good timing!), so I'm sure our chances this month are slim, but that won't stop me holding out hope.

Eeeeeeeeep :) :) :)

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 13:59

So excited for you! I'll look forward to seeing a digital if you do one. Have two waiting in my wardrobe Grin

How do you feel??

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 14:07

Feel sick, a little shocked, excited but scared too. Will have an early scan if I am pregnant, just because of loosing the baby before, will be good to see if everything's ok. I still don't quite believe it xxx

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 14:08

Ps I've 3 digitals here but I'm too scared to do one as I think if the FR is so faint the clearblue digital could say "not pregnant" and then I'd be confused! I'll send a pic if I cave Xxx

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 14:08

Ps someone else pee on a stick!!

boowaitingforbaby · 28/07/2017 14:14

Congratulations @Clobear3 !!!
I got a BFN this AM but AF not here yet. I went to GP today for blood tests for something else and The nurse gave me another test so if AF doesn't appear by Tuesday I will POAS again but for now I'm accepting the negative and trying to forget about it

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 14:29

I think you'd probably get a 'pregnant 1-2' if you did a digital but I know what you mean. Maybe wait a few days and then it's more likely. I think they are meant to be used from 4 days before if I remember correctly?

I'll poas tomorrow morning. Should be 9 DPO then. But not hopeful. Don't know why really! I am tired but with 2dd it's to be expected!

Good idea re early scan - that will be good to help you relax. I'll do the same if I'm lucky enough to fall pregnant. I had one at 7 weeks before as my Dad is a twin and I just needed to know!

Looking forward to any updates - so pleased for you.

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 14:56

Boo: you just don't know until AF arrives!

Pickles: let us know how you get on!! :) :) I'm 10 DPO today and it's only just shown. I was determined I wasn't too, even though I did feel faint and yesterday and today have been sick.

I promise to update as soon as I do a digital so we know for sure. Pray that it's a sticky one, and all in the right place.

Pickles: I love twins, please please have twins!! :) my friend has twin sisters and their bond is just incredible. I don't know of any twins in my family xx

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 15:15

Thanks Clobear - I'll keep you posted. Right now I'm wondering what I'm thinking of as dd1 has been very challenging today Confused

I'm on the loo and just feel like hiding in here until DH gets home! Tesco calls though...

Can't believe you have been sick already! That must be reassuring Grin

LivLemler · 28/07/2017 15:23

Definitely a BFP Clo, congratulations!

I was convinced I was pregnant, today convinced I'm not. Ah well, was our first month trying so we'll just try again next month.

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 15:51

Pickles: I know the feeling, our almost 3 year old keeps pooing in his pants today. He's totally toilet trained but he has the odd day like this :0

Thanks Liv, I'm still convinced that a digital one will say no, just got to get used to the idea :0

If I am pregnant it's an example of how you can get negatives if you test too early though, as my first ones were none at all xxx

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 17:17

Clo Your post did made me laugh - I know it probably wasn't intended to but it was much needed! God, I had forgotten about the stage when they are walking around with pants full of poo (and it usually takes for you to notice too!)

I have felt so fucked off today and just need a bath and a jolly good cry! DDs have been hard work. It's the first day of summer holidays we have stayed at home and it's been dire. Solid arguing and screaming. All. Day. Feel as though I have major pmt... maybe it's a sign Hmm I love my children more than anything in the whole world but my god they know how to push my buttons.

Hope you have a nice evening and the news is sinking in now Smile

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 17:18

Have you decided when to test Liv? x

LivLemler · 28/07/2017 18:00

Got a BFN last night pickles, but not unexpected. Will test in the morning so I can drink guilt free in the evening, and then try again on Tuesday, two days before AF is due. If all negative will just see when AF arrives after that.

What about you?

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 18:18

Pickles: my hubby just phoned & both boys turned into feral pre bedtime hour creatures that were squeaking and attacking each other!

And now I can't even have wine :)

2ww starts now!

Squeeeeee! That is so great!! X

Picklesandpies · 28/07/2017 18:56

Not about your feral children of course Wink My feral children have turned into angels for their dance teacher of course!

So excited for you! I'm not surprised you caved and did a digital - I would have done one ages ago Grin

Clobear3 · 28/07/2017 21:49

They were so sweet at bedtime I forgave them for being feral humans.

It took forever on the digital so I was convinced it was going to say no!! :0 :0

Just been cuddling hubby in shock tonight! Xxx

rachelandthenoodle · 28/07/2017 23:38

I'm so so pleased for you, clo. It's so great when someone gets a BFP! ☺️

My husband and I have a couple who are our dearest friends and we often pop round to theirs for supper or vice versa. Tonight we popped round and she wasn't drinking. This is rare. 😔 She's pregnant. 7 weeks. We were actually on holiday together 7 weeks ago... and we thought I would ovulate that week but instead I started bleeding again...and it turns out it all worked out for them at the same time. Gosh I feel like such a cow for whinging. Their one year old is our god daughter and just the most beautiful child and they are such lovely people... but I just really thought she and I would be pregnant at the same time.

Sorry for rambling. 😝

I'm off to bed now. Don't think I'll bother POAS in the morning. It's either too early or AF is coming. I can't decide which.

Feeling deflated.

Sictransitgloria · 29/07/2017 00:25

Yay Clo- so happy for you congrats!

Sictransitgloria · 29/07/2017 00:26

Rachel - that's shit. Its ok to feel shit about it. Hope you feel better soon x

Picklesandpies · 29/07/2017 05:40

Hi all,

Rachel sorry you had a rough evening. Can totally understand your emotions. Was you DH supportive? Bet he was giving your hand a mental squeeze Smile So hard when you have to look pleased for someone and you feel crushed inside. Like pp said you should just allow yourself to feel like that and not feel guilty - it's completely normal. Oh and maybe leave a kipper behind their radiator on the way out... Wink

I just poas but BFN. Hey ho. Think I'm 9dpo so maybe it's too early still but don't feel this is our month. The cat's just jumped up on the bed and bitten me out of nowhere so a good morning so far!

rumer35 · 29/07/2017 06:35

Been lurking. Cycle has been erratic, 28-32 days. On the former AF due Thursday, on the latter Sunday. Had brown spotting since Tuesday, very light and not there when wake up in mornings. POAS with FR and BFN this morning. I've never spotted before, could it be stress?

PollyCazaletWannabe · 29/07/2017 07:05

Can I join please? Not sure when I ovulated but think I am at least 8 dpo as I am on cd25 and usually have around a 31 day cycle. Some pain in boobs and I'm sure my nipples are enlarged although I may be imagining things after 2 MC this year :( when do you think I should poas? I was thinking maybe Monday?
