Anyone on 2WW...starting mid-March

Anyone else about to start their 2WW?

32
TTC#1
Cycle 3
Ovulation date either 10/03 or 11/03, or maybe today (FF isn't sure yet...)
AF due 25/03

I used OPKs and did temping for the first time this month, I got a +OPK saturday morning and the following morning my temp had spiked. That seems a very quick turnaround to me...I thought it was usually around 2-3 days between the + and the temp going up?

All this stuff is so confusing! Remember those teen years when they told us how easy it was to get pregnant to scare us? They were full of shite Grin

Ahhh congratulations @AaronPurrSir, that’s a fab line! Has it started to sink it yet? What made you decide to test today, aside from the desperate need to pee on anything that we go through each 2WW?! Xx

AaronPurrSir · 21/03/2018 22:15

@happythoughts7 it still doesn’t seem real! I was going to wait until tomorrow morning but it was all I could think about this afternoon. I had a tiny amount of spotting yesterday which isn’t normal for me, and I’ve felt weird shooting pains. Something just felt a bit different. Glad I did it tonight as it’s given me the evening to get my head round it a bit, rather than doing it tomorrow then going straight to work!

The first of many I hope!

Ovulated Sa
I felt hit like a bus exhausted Sun
Felt implantation Tues (I know, technically too early)
Today Wed intermittant nausea and falling asleep on sofa 8.30pm

Another few days before I can test!

mammyoftwo · 22/03/2018 14:45

Confession...............I've started researching baby names!!Blush

Kentishgal · 23/03/2018 10:36

AF due 29 March - all BFNs (really no faint line whatsoever) - but feel like getting period pains - wouldn't usually be due on this early. But think it'd be too late for implantation pain (had positive opk on 13/3). Urghh hate the wait.

HappyThoughts7 · 23/03/2018 18:35

So after making the most of my fertile window, and getting positive OPK on Sat, today I have started bleeding and am really crampy. I’d love to pretend it’s IB, but this morning is was pretty red and heavy, so I guess it’s just AF already, even though I only ovulated 6 days ago Sad just feeling really sad and teary about it all. Xx

mammyoftwo · 23/03/2018 18:40

I've spent most of today lying on the floor........nausea+++++++

Owlpatrol · 23/03/2018 19:18

@Kentishgal yeah snap I'm exactly the same we are cycle buddies!

@mammyoftwo ooooh sounds positive?

I've been cramping most of the day fairly certain I'm out now....af due 28th or 29th yaay! After not drinking all month have decided on a glass tonight as fairly certain certain I'm out but going to test in the morning on an ic again to be sure

How's everyone else keeping busy this weekend? I plan on clearing out and spring cleaning!!

Looby18 · 23/03/2018 19:28

32
10th cycle ttc
Baby 1
Day 30 of 30-35 day cycle
Due in two days

New to mumsnet

When I started trying to conceive I was a bit coy as wasn’t sure I was ready but thought it’s now or never and to go for it. Almost expect a bfn now after ten months but kinda just been going with the flow not paying much attention to it. I’ve moved house and it’s been xmas etc and not stopped until now and got a bit worried. We prob don’t have the recommended amount of every other day sometimes a few times per week other times once so maybe the timing just isn’t on but u would expect one to make it happen . V frustrating

lolacola13 · 23/03/2018 19:39

@Looby18 hey! Are u using opks ? U could be completely missing ov...

mammyoftwo · 23/03/2018 19:48

looby is it ok to ask about your weight? I don't mean to be rude

Before dc1 my cycle was 35 days long, after ten months ttc gp told me extra weight can cause hormone imbalance. After losing one stone dc1 was conceived.

mammyoftwo · 23/03/2018 19:49

And cycle reduced to regular 28 day cycle

Kentishgal · 23/03/2018 20:15

Ha owlpatrol we're also wine buddies as I figured the exact same thing tonight!

Looby18 · 23/03/2018 22:08

I am five foot six and 10 stone seven pounds so normal range
I’ve tried last few months and get surge day 18 but then cramps/bloat/const day 23 then remain on and off that way until period. My o/h has a twin who has low sperm count so worried it’s the same at age 41 . I am only 32

mammyoftwo · 24/03/2018 13:43

Sex every 2-3 days, and if not pg after one year ttc, both you and hubby go to gp. Hope you have good news soon :)

Yukka · 25/03/2018 08:35

I'm a bit late but congrats @aaron! Hope you are feeling well.
Lots of different stories on here this month.

@kentish agree with @mammyoftwo go at it hard next couple of months then go to docs to see. Lots of issues are fixable or can be given a helping hand, stay positive.

I've had the flu all week and just feeling a bit better today. This month we followed SMEP approach to the letter, it was hard to keep going. 8 days dpo lets see whether af arrives next weekend or not.

@looby how are you getting on?

CherryO88 · 25/03/2018 09:38

HI there, hoping to join!
30
TTC #2 DD 12 months
Cycle 1
CD 21
I only just had my first AF on 5th March after finishing BF at Christmas after nearly 10 months. I was hoping to be one of those lucky ladies who magically fall preg while BF but wasn’t to be!
I have been using IC OPKs and since AF CB digital but no static smiley so not sure if I have even ovulated. Had tiny amount of brown CM CD16 and then slight light red spotting CD17. Never had any bleeding outside of AF before!
Yesterday I had the worst headache I’ve ever had and so nauseous. Driving myself mad symptom spotting and desperate to POAS Confused

Sleepycat91 · 25/03/2018 20:41

Hii
Ive just seen this and new to Netmums!
Also on the 2WW!

have a 4 year old son already, when pregnant with him, was told i have a bicornuate uterus( i still dont know how bad it is).
I symptomed really early with him, head was spinning, sense of smell went through the roof as well as the pregnancy spider senses, i felt 'different' before i had a bfp.

I believe i had a chemical pregnancy feb, ending start of march.
We DTD on 3 of my fertile days, i now have the sorest, biggest boobs ever, and have done for the last 5 days getting progressively worse, i can barely get in my jeans im so bloated, im off food, heads spinning, nauseous and puking, moody as HELL and in general, just feel like crap.

Im not due AF until 30th but im usually a few days late anyway, i bought a butt load of cheapy strip tests and despite knowing its too early, ive still been doing one dailyobviously all bfn, its driving me up the wall so im debating a blood test to just know for definate or if something else is going on!
Xxx

mammyoftwo · 25/03/2018 22:46

yukka when are you due to poas?

Welcome to netmums! sleepycat Grin Grin Grin I know technically the books would say it's too early for you to experience pregnancy symptoms, but to me you sound well pregnant!!! (I'll probably get shot down for even suggesting you know you're pg before having a bfp, but I am a big believer in trusting your instincts! I don't mean to raise false hope, it's just you know your body and sound convinced yourself) When are you going to poas?

cherry sometimes bodies take time to re-adjust to changes in hormones after stopping bf'ing. I'd suggest stepping away from testing for ovulation at this stage, and maybe just looking for signs (unless you've had previous particular fertility issues) After dc 1 period took 6 weeks to return, after dc2 it took four to five months, for me, I just mean it can greatly vary, which doesn't mean anything is "wrong" if af not back straight away.

Sleepycat91 · 26/03/2018 08:49

Heeey, thanks!

I bought 80 (obviously not too excessiveHmm) cheapy tests from amazon so i must admit i have been Poas every morning for the last ten days🙈

Although my ovulation follows a 28day pattern, im normally a few days over Af beinh due anyway so its hard to judge when im due on so looke like im going to have to soldier on with the constant testing.

Im always worse on the evening with head spinning, feel sick and Christ the size of my (.)(.) Is unreal, unfortunately for my OH its a look dont touch aha.

I hate waiting, i might just book in for a blood test at the doctors! X
