Anyone else just starting their 2ww?

[mamabear05]

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!!!

Currently on 8DPO, all my symptoms have gone and I feel absolutely fine. Slight ache in my left boob and the odd cramp but other than that nothing!! Am I out?!

I'm 11 DPO but have all my pre-AF symptoms and I'm feeling pretty lousy! Going to wait for AF and only test if it's late (unlikely by the level of cramps today)!

Well af arrived today

Ohhhhh sorry to hear that ontono3 - fingers crossed for next cycle for you.

I am 7dpo and trying to convince myself that the nausea, funny tasting tea & dizziness is a symptom when in reality I'm just a little bit hungover

Not out yet chattein & emelene ! When is AF due for both of you? I haven't tested at all last few cycles as they were so short that AF arrived just as I thought I was gearing up for fertile week (usual cycles 41 days ish and these were 16-24!!) so naturally this morning I tested at 7dpo like a moron and had to have a word with myself!

Can I join?! I am not 100% sure when I ovulated-but think I'm 7dpo. I'm impatiently waiting to test! With my first baby though I didn't get a positive until after AF was late!

Good luck @miserablemouse and kettle! AF due Wednesday 28th (but cycles can vary) so we will see. Honestly I'm feeling so crampy I'm not much tempted to test even though I'm 12DPO. So if (and only if) AF is late I'll break open the sticks!

Can I join as well?
@potkettleblack2 I'm same as you, I think 7 dpo, but not 100% sure when I ovulated.

First month properly TTC, and I thought I was symptom spotting before... Trying to hold off testing until the apps say I should, but as I am a bit irregular, who knows?!

Due AF tomorrow- couldn't help testing early and got a BFN. Guess I'm out for this month. Good luck everyone still waiting!

BFN for me this morning. I know I shouldn't have tested, but I gave in to temptation! I don't have any more tests in the house, which is probably a good thing!

potkettle I tested yesterday and this morning at 7 & 8 dpo too and obviously they were both BFN - why do we do this to ourselves?! I know it's far too early, I just need to get a grip! Not testing again now until at least the weekend, preferably Monday when AF is due.

emelene I admire your reservation!! Will you just wait to see if AF turns up tomorrow or do you think you'll test before then? Fingers crossed!

drswim sorry about the BFN, was it on a FRER or a cheapy? You're not out for definite yet though!

eyedontknow don't worry, I'm on Cycle 10 and still symptom spotting even though I know I shouldn't!

@miserablemouse I'm waiting it out tomorrow (stocked up on sanitary supplies - I'm keeping my expectations low! :P) but I did promise myself I can do a FRER on Thursday if my period is actually late.

Good luck! It's so hard not to symptom spot isn't it?

@Miserablemouse I am currently on 11dpo! AF due on Thursday. Had a BFN with FRER this afternoon but i has drank loads and peed loads so I was setting myself up for failure. Yesterday and today I have felt really wet and been convinced I had come on, ran to bathroom every time and it has just been watery milky cm but SO much of it! Really heavy boobs and heavy uterus too. I never get pre AF symptoms so I'm hoping that's a good sign!

Miserablemouse it was a cheapy. If I don't come on by tomorrow I'll buy a FRER just to be sure!

Potkettleblack2 I know- it's hard not to compulsively test, isn't it?

Next month I am not buying cheapies. It's too stressful!

So my period didn't arrive yesterday and this morning I've got my BFP! I think I'm about 16DPO. So excited and a little scared! I'm praying it's a sticky bean! Good luck for everyone waiting xx

Wow emelene that's a super BFP!! Congratulations and well done for the reserve of not testing until AF is late, I could never last so long I don't think! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months xx

drswim I'm never buying cheapies again either. It's not worth the stress. I managed not to test this morning (10dpo) and going to try and take after Emelene and not test until Monday or Tuesday when AF is due if she hasn't arrived by then.

chattein have you held your nerve or tested again?

@Emelene congratulations!

Thanks ladies. Good luck!

Congrats @Emelene, can I just ask when you started feeling a bit crap? I feel so off but I'm only 4DPO

Hi @rosieposies, for me I think it was around 10DPO with cramps and sore boobs but that was very typically premenstrual for me - hence why I had low expectations when I tested! My husband has claimed he knew as soon as my period was late! I didn't. Good luck xx

Thanks @emelene, gives me hope that this may not be AF! I think I have a bit of a bug so it's putting me out of whack. Hopefully see you on the pregnancy threads soon! xx

Can I join? Cycle 2 for me and not 100% sure when I ovulated but think I’m now 11 dpo (basing it off EWCM) but AF was due yesterday. My cycle has been consistent since I stopped the pill in December. Was crampy yesterday and thought AF was coming but nothing. Took a test and got a BFN so it’s a waiting game now. Trying not to overthink it too much but feeling squeamish today which is the first real symptom I’ve had but not sure if it’s in my head! My app is saying to test tomorrow so I’m going to do it then!

After all that symptom spotting and then the gutting feeling of thinking AF was here she wasn't! It was just late implantation spotting.

All my symptoms were pointing in the right direction! BFN every single day but...

BFP at 17dpo!!! Everyone has hope.

I'm now 5 weeks pregnant!

Congratulations @Chattein! I love seeing BFP posts in the morning, made my day.
