As title says really. Anyone else just about starting their 2ww again and want someone to share the torture with? Currently on CD1 myself and trying to stay hopeful after 2 recent early losses. Let the ridiculous symptom spotting begin!!!

@Emelene good luck! I'm 6dpo and going to test on Sunday. Doubting it will be a bfp but hoping for the best anyhow x

I had hormone treatment with my son for the first 12 weeks high dose of folic acid and aspirin

mamabear05 · 21/02/2018 13:22

@ontono3 I have everything crossed for us all x

Thank you really hoping we all get out bfp's x

Wackadoodle84 · 21/02/2018 14:58

Hey folks,

Can I join in? TTC#3, this will be 2nd pregnany though, DD1&2 are twins, aged 8. It took over 5 years to conceive them.

We have been thinking about trying for #3 for a while and kept putting a pin in it for one reason or another and this month we just decided to go for it

We had been using clear blue monitor for contraception for the last year so we were ready to start trying straight away

Am now on CD22 , normally 31 days, trying very hard not to think about it all the time but it's tough going!

mamabear05 · 21/02/2018 15:20

@Wackadoodle84 wow I bet twins must be wonderful! Good luck for another bfp this cycle. Currently cd23/31 myself so due af just the day after you by the looks of things. Hopefully she won't show her face for another 9 months tho lol x

Twins was great sport, first three years were a bit of a blur to be honest. They are such great little characters now.

Was wonderful to get the two after such a long time ttc, to be honest though I'd much rather a shorter stint ttc this time and one baby Grin

Fingers crossed for bfps all around this month

ontono3 · 22/02/2018 09:54

Still just as faint as yesterday so going to wait till af due on Saturday

Stee1 · 22/02/2018 10:31

4dpo today unsure when I'm due AF as ovulated like 7 days late this month fingers crossed 🤞

Miserablemouse · 22/02/2018 10:48

Twins, eek! Hard work I'm sure but I bet they're lovely to have.
Fingers crossed it's easier for you this time round. Do you mind me asking if you had to have any assistance with conceiving them Wackadoodle?

Good news that you're getting a line though ontono3 - hopefully it'll be a nice strong BFP for you by Saturday!

When will you test mamabear? I'm on CD30 /41 so AF due 06/03 but strongly suspect I will cave and test on the weekend before!

Miserablemouse · 22/02/2018 10:50

Fingers crossed stee! If you ovulated late AF should be due 14 days after you ovulated I think (unless you have a shorter luteal phase normally?)

Stee1 · 22/02/2018 11:08

Luteal phase usually about 12-13 days. No doubt I'll start testing early estimated I'm duenon around 3rd or 4th x

Millypad · 22/02/2018 11:10

Got BFP today at 10dpo. Bit terrified after everything!

Wackadoodle84 · 22/02/2018 11:14

Miserablemouse, i conceived the twins after 6 cycles of Clomid, really hoping I don't have to go down that road this time though. TTC really took it's toll on us the last time. Constantly spending the 2ww not drinking or eating certain foods just on the off chance I might be pregnant. I really don't want it to take over our lives this time

Do you mind me asking how long have you been trying yourself?

ontono3 fingers crossed for a nice strong bfp for you soon

Miserablemouse · 22/02/2018 11:22

Congrats Millypad that's amazing news!

Wackadoodle oh gosh sounds like such a long journey, it must have been so hard. I hope it's not like that for you this time.
I've been trying for 10 cycles - 11 months as most of mine are long, so I've been off the pill since last March. I don't think I've ovulated for most of them though as had no signs of it and some of them were too short (16 days or so).

Got my first ever positive OPK this month which coincided with first ever EWCM and a BBT hike so even if I'm not knocked up this month I'm still really pleased to finally be ovulating as I was gearing up to go to the GP next month. I did an actual happy dance round the living room when the OPK was positive!

Wackadoodle84 · 22/02/2018 11:47

Brilliant news Miserablemouse , hopefully this means ovulation will be back to normal for you or even better, you'll get your bfp this month

Millypad huge congratulations! How are you feeling?

Millypad · 22/02/2018 11:49

Thank you so much @wackadoodle

Millypad · 22/02/2018 11:51

Oops pressed send too soon! Thanks to you and @miserablemouse! Mainly I’m a bit shell shocked because it’s been 17 months since the miscarriage and I’ve barely ovulated. The laparoscopy and ovarian drilling obviously helped! But I’m mainly a bit scared of it all happening again, but trying to just take it one day at a time. Have been feeling sick and fluey for a few days now, glad to finally know why 😌

Miserablemouse · 22/02/2018 11:55

Thank you wackadoodle - fingers crossed for a far quicker and stress free BFP for you very soon too

Milly fingers crossed for a healthy and successful pregnancy for you, especially after all you've gone through

ontono3 · 22/02/2018 17:42

Just checked my cervix and it's low and open so not holding out much hope for this cycle owell

eleventyseventhnamechange · 23/02/2018 19:30

Hello all, please can I join.

We are trying to learn number 2, on the second cycle, I ovulated this last Sunday (well, got the positive test Sunday morning so perhaps ovulated Monday?) and I know that last time I got sore boobs a week in so I'm currently feeling myself up constantly to check Grin.

ontono3 I'm fascinated...didn't know you could check your own cervix like that! So if you're pregnant it's going to be high up?

ontono3 · 23/02/2018 20:03

Yh it's positioned diffently throughout your cycle and feels different

mamabear05 · 24/02/2018 09:12

Well I tested with a FRER this morning and big fat bfn so not holding out much hope for us this cycle however still early days I know x

OP posts:
ontono3 · 24/02/2018 09:27

Same and I'm 14dpo so I'm definitely out thought I could see a hint of a line but probably just imagining it

Miserablemouse · 24/02/2018 10:03

Oh no, sorry for the BFNs mamabear ontono3 - you’re not out yet though so fingers crossed it’s just too early!!

I am 4dpo today I think and just wishing this week away. I’ve never known when my tww was before because I didn’t even know if I was ovulating so this is the first one where I’m having to sit on my hands a bit. Never thought two weeks could go so slowly!
