Does anyone else feel like they're mentally out and on the next cycle even if they are still in the 2ww?

Today I found myself getting very cross because DH told me he had to go away for work next month during FW. I'm already going to be away for work for the first few days then I won't see him until 2 days after ovulation. I probably should wait until AF comes before I start thinking about next cycle but I'm such a planner I can't help myself!

PassTheAfterEights · 09/02/2018 14:57

Sounds like you're doing the best thing @leanne128 so annoying re the OPKs and so hard to keep on top of symptoms but at least if you can DTD regularly you have a great chance, you might not know about it but it's still there!! Will keep everything crossed for you, keep us posted xx

winterwarmers · 09/02/2018 15:00

i keep going into amazon to buy some more opks and planning what to do next month too i’m only 3dpo, i just with you could find out sooner

sodababy2 · 09/02/2018 15:50

I bought some tampons in the online shop today. Am 8dpo. Force of habit I guess but also trying to invoke the law of sod! Grin

@Secondtimelucky1980 how did your testing go today? Hope you got a BFP!! Was thinking of you xx

Secondtimelucky1980 · 09/02/2018 18:37

It’s tomorrow when I can test cammy. I made a mistake. I’m not pregnant though, I know it. How are you? Xx

Cammy30 · 09/02/2018 18:59

Awh ok @Secondtimelucky1980 ! Never say never! Major fingers crossed for tomorrow for you! 🤞🏻😘

Secondtimelucky1980 · 09/02/2018 19:14

Cammy30 · 09/02/2018 20:29

Hi ladies, just popping my head in to see how you all are. I thought id update on my BFP after my miscarriage in december for those who are anxious about it happening again. I had a scan today (i was sick with fear before i had it) at 6 weeks + 2, and on top of my thyroid issues, they found a very big fibroid which could have caused implantation problems with the mc. But next to it, my bean had found a lil spot to nestle in regardless, with a strong heartbeat.
The sonographer said even with many fibroids or scars, a baby can still find a space in there to grow.

I hope this helps to give you hope after mc what is, face it, a really emotionally n physically taxing ordeal. Heres my pip, measuring only 3mm (abdominal scan) I wish you ladies the best of luck and loads of (((((positive vibes))))). Thank you for keeping me sane through everything ❤️💐

Feb Bus! Fingers crossed

EyeBaggage · 10/02/2018 11:07

Honeycake how lovely!! I have a large fibroid that I've always been worrying about so your post has given me hope!

I've been feeling really headachey/nauseous this morning - like a hangover but alas, no booze for me - knowing my luck I'm probably actually just sick Angry BFN this morning Angry

dontquit · 10/02/2018 16:39

Sorry to hear that @eyebaggage. When is AF due for you? There's hope yet.
I'm cd19. Think I ov'd yeasterday or maybe today. Spots yday, bloated today and lots of ewcm since yesterday. Bit late this month. Strong lines on OPKs but no definite positive. Dtd last night and will tomo night. Away for relaxing weekend with friends. Can I have a drink?? Or a few. 1st mth ttc. Have 2 dds already. Wanted ttc this time last year but had to defer for health reasons so feel like it's been a long time!
Going to be a long 2ww!

xLeanne128 · 10/02/2018 20:00

@honeycake86 that's lovely news. Can anyone tell me if it's normal for opks to mess around like this (pictures attached) been getting near positives for 4 days but hvent taken pics of them all as thought my positive was coming but appears not! Also going to start temping tomorrow but have no idea what im doing, help please. I would of been 8 weeks today but lost little bean at 5-6 weeks so unsure if this cycle/ovulation will be late?

Feb Bus! Fingers crossed

@xLeanne128 how old are the tests? Those tests can be quite deceiving I use them and after 10-20 mins they all get a light evaporation line, I was that convinced I was going mad with them I got DP to do one!

Sorry for your loss re your bean. I'm in the same boat as you, I was 6 Wks at 18th Jan and had a mc, i think I ov on Monday just gone, so just over 2 weeks later, this was my ov stick after 2 mins

colourful86 · 10/02/2018 20:51

It won't let me upload the pic.. anyway, it was a darkish line similar to the bottom one on your pic of 4 tests

sodababy2 · 10/02/2018 21:57

Congratulations @HoneyCake86!

Sorry about your m/c @xLeanne128. I'm not sure about the OPKs. How often were you testing? Perhaps you missed your surge if you were just testing once a day? Re temping - get a BBT thermometer from Amazon and take your temp first thing in the morning at the same time as far as possible. Your temp rises the day after ov. You should see a pattern after a couple of months.

I'm 9DPO today. Still got tingly nipples. High temperatures and have had some strange cramping today. Really trying not to get hopes up. But failing. Confused

colourful86 · 10/02/2018 22:42

I'm 6dpo and starting temping now, what should I expect to see if I have a BFP?

xLeanne128 · 10/02/2018 22:52

Thankyou both. Yeh some tests take ages to produce a darker line on my last positive opk before MC it came up near enough straight away and was very strong so ill keep trying going to start temping tomorrow but imagine it will take a few weeks to figure out my norm? Thanks girls goodluck to you both xx

xLeanne128 · 10/02/2018 22:52

Test at morning, 2ish and evening x
