Anyone else in the 2ww?

1dpo cycle 1 post-mc, AF due 20/02 - last 2ww thread I was on got me through!

Trying to follow Kwick's rules for 2ww, no hot baths / cold veg etc, and not to react to every single twinge Hmm

Pretty sure I’m out. 12DPO and just got a BFN on a FRER. Feeling very low Sad

Imnotposhjustquaint · 20/02/2018 09:24

@AaronPurrSir, it’s just the worst isn’t it? You’re not out yet but if you at fx for next month Flowers

I’m due either next Monday or tuesday. Having slight period cramps today, very low down and almost like a throb but still there. I often get AF cramps this early in my cycle Sad having said that I had these cramps when I was pg with DD and through my MC’c & chems too.

Good look to everybody.

jasmin93 · 20/02/2018 19:53

13 dpo today. Having period cramps, so I guess testing now doesn't make any sense.
Or should I ? I'm just afraid it's another BFN....Confused

Fififiesta · 20/02/2018 20:00

jasmin I would test, I can never wait!

Grumboots · 20/02/2018 20:29

Me!

TTC #1, cycle 1. First TWW and my God, I had no idea how agonising it is!!

I have some symptoms but am trying not to focus on them too much to avoid disappointment, especially after today's BFN (10 DPO). Hoping it's just too early...

jasmin93 · 20/02/2018 20:45

OMG!!!
IS IT ?
my husband doesn't believe it. My parents are downstairs.
I am shaking guys!!!!

Imnotposhjustquaint · 20/02/2018 20:48

@jasmin93 congratulations!!

jasmin93 · 20/02/2018 20:55

Thank you both xx
Really did NOT expect this. I still feel like AF will show tomorrow....crazy.
Will test again next week Smile

loulou82 · 20/02/2018 21:44

Congrats @jasmine93 the best news!!!

I need some help guys, is there a ghost of a line here or have I actually got line eyes from looking at these things too much?

Thanks a million

jasmin93 · 20/02/2018 22:02

@loulou, I think I do see a faint line! Test again tomorrow. Fingers are crossed for you xxFlowers

dontquit · 20/02/2018 22:02

Congrats @jasmin93. So exciting. My frers are showing faint positives..def was a bit stronger today at either9/11 dpo (not sure which). Did a digital this eve n said not pregnant. Good intentions to keep 2nd digital for a few days but know well I'll do it in the morn with fmuHmm must enjoy driving myself insane.

Salsadip · 20/02/2018 22:03

I can see something @loulou82! Test again in a couple of days and good luck 😁

dontquit · 20/02/2018 22:03

@loulou83. I def think I see the shadow of a line but I also have line eyes so might not be the best person!
What stage u at?

loulou82 · 20/02/2018 22:10

Thanks everyone! Will be a lunatic and test again tomorrow morning and then tomorrow eve. Treating myself this cycle!

@dontquit my last cycle I had a chemical pregnancy and pregnancy test didn't got back to BFN until around cd6 so thinking I ovulated much later this cycle that I normally do so thinking I'm about 9/10 dpo.

Feeling weird nauseous feelings but not as much as my chem pregnancy last month which was full on from 10dpo.

Will keep testing and update tomorrow!

Good luck everyone

loulou82 · 21/02/2018 07:52

Tested again this morn and there is a definate ghostly line. Will hold off for a day or so and test again to get a stronger result. Fingers crossed

Chattein · 21/02/2018 08:49

My symptoms seem to have disappeared Sad I had cramps for the first 5 DPO. I have had to run to the bathroom to be sick twice and been exhausted! Napped at least once a day and last night went to bed at 6:30 and slept until 8 this morning, this morning I have woken up fresh as a daisy and no signs of any symptoms?! 😩 am I out for month?! HELP

PassTheAfterEights · 21/02/2018 10:06

So happy for @jasmin93 (how's Germany?!) and @loulou82 - best of luck for a great 9 months!

I'm officially out, the witch came last night. Good news is she was on time to the day, which had me worried post-mc. Onwards to March for me, v best of luck for more BFPs this week & thanks for all line spotters and hand holders, you've got me through! x

AaronPurrSir · 21/02/2018 11:05

@chattein I’ve had exactly the same thing! Post-O I felt unusually crampy, bloated, upset stomach and even had to run and puke in the middle of the night. Did a FRER yesterday morning at 12DPO and a BFN. Still got AF to come obviously, but I’m feeling like I’m out. No idea what the crampy womb and upset stomach was about though, maybe I just had a bug? Or maybe the egg fertilised but then didn’t implant. I have no idea Sad

PassTheAfterEights · 21/02/2018 11:19

FWIW @chattein & @aaronpurrsir I had the same very symptomatic 2ww this time, quite bad cramps, backache, wild dreams, upset tummy - all stuff I had before last bfp - and I had a faint line at 7/8 dpo, so reckon we did conceive but didn't implant. Trying not to worry about it on the basis that I'd never have known if I hadn't been an idiot and tested early so it's probably more common than I realise. Hope if it's not your month that you have better luck next time.

jasmin93 · 21/02/2018 11:42

It's freezing cold here in Germany. We decided to tell my parents today at lunch. On our way now to meet them.
I know its so early. But this is the only chance to tell them in person.
What do you guys think? Hmm

hatechoosingthese · 21/02/2018 12:02

Congratulations @jasmin93 and @loulou82!

@passtheaftereights, sorry to hear AF arrived for you too, same here. Was gutted as with symptoms thought it might be a lucky month. FX it's a March BFP for us.

Good luck to all of you still waiting it out!

PassTheAfterEights · 21/02/2018 12:06

Ah hey @hatechoosingthese sorry for you too, so annoying misleading symptoms. Just hopped on March bus. Will be nice to have a familiar 'face' anyway! FX for you too x

OP posts:
Imnotposhjustquaint · 21/02/2018 12:48

@PassTheAfterEights I’m so sorry Sad it really does suck.

FX for us all the remainder of this month and next month.

I’m around 8-9 DPO today. Quite ‘wet’ down there. Crampy but similar to AF cramps though she isn’t due till next Monday/Tuesday. I always seem to get cramps before though. Boobs are quite sore but again, not unusual. Not feeling especially tired or sick. Still have a good feeling about this month but could be left very disappointed. My best friend who has been TTC for 18 months now told me that she’s just found out she’s 6-7 weeks pregnant! I’m so happy for her and it gives me so much hope too as we’ve only been TTC for half of that time.

Baby dust to everybody xxx

loulou82 · 22/02/2018 08:54

Think I'm out. Tested on a frer this morning and nothing. Will probably keep testing until AF shows but preparing to join the March bus. Onwards and upwards!
