Starting 2ww once again! Who's with me?

[alicepol]

Looks like another 2ww for me, anyone else just Starting? I'm only 2DPO so still 12 days to get through!

Age - 25
TTC #2
Cycle 5
CD 16 on a 27 day cycle (usually)
Only 2 DPO
AF due 25th July

Thanks @8DaysAWeek

I did.... here it is. Do you think I might have got the timing right to be in with a shot?!

Temps alone look like you O on CD19, but with opks and cm you could have just as easily Od in CD21. There's a nice increase in BBT today, and not everyone gets that preO dip. Either way you dtd on CD18 and 20 so you're covered :)

Thanks so much; that sounds plausible. Well, fingers crossed and on with the 2WW!

Let’s hope this is the one for all of us.

@8DaysAWeek yeah I think ovulation is around CD19/20 for me at the moment. Hanging in there!
Really hope it happens for us all soon!

My apps always say anywhere from CD14 to 16 so will see what OPKs say this month to see if it lines up. I'm still only CD7 - this cycle is going so slow!

Still negative here, CD13.

No DTD tonight. DS was up at 5am and I am knackered! Will do it tomorrow to stay on EOD.

Forgot to OPK this morning and I’m at work all day so won’t be able to test until tonight. Hopefully it’s too early for a surge anyway.

I’m considering not ‘trying’ this month now for a few reasons. 1. Timing wise I know MIL is going to be around and we won’t DTD whilst she is sleeping beneath us so if we are going to miss fertile days then what is the point in worrying about it? 2. We have a lot going on in August and ideally I will be able to have a few G&Ts and 3. It’s too bloody hot!

But I will still try to catch my surge so I know for next month.

This month dragging in for anyone else? Not sure to ovulate for another week. Feel like I'm wishing my life away!

Yep! @8daysaweek It's going soo slow!

Yep, sure is. I think I have another week until I even hit my fertile period so even longer for ovulation!
It's out 1st wedding anniversary at the end of the month so I'm really hoping this is our month. It would be such an amazing anniversary gift for us both!

God I’m struggling! This was my first month of tracking ovulation, and it’s made me obsessive!! Im either 5 or 3dpo and I’m desperate to POAS which is LUDICROUS.

Can I join? I don't know what all the abbreviations mean.

This is my first time trying to conceive, I'm 29. My period is due on the 8th August and I'm 9 days post ovulation. I actually did one of those first response pregnancy tests today as I'm 6 days away from my period and it was negative. Trying to force myself to wait another 3 days or so before taking another test. According to my period tracker, I had sex 3 times in my fertile period so I am hopeful (but not sure it's realistic to get pregnant on the first try?)

Welcome @ununpentium

The FRER are 6 days before missed period, so, 5 days before period due.

They’re 62% accurate at 5 days before so don’t put too much faith in them.

I’ve been pregnant 4 times (3 births) and I’ve never had a positive test before my period was due.

Anecdotally, my sister got pregnant the first time she ever had sex so never say never.

🤞 for you

Fingers firmly crossed for you! @ununpentium

Yes, do try to wait. I sympathise though! It’s so hard.

I’d been on the pill and then had two back to back implants for 12 years,..... i had the implant out and had my first period, got pregnant straight away! My daughter is almost 5.

Though, we are approaching two years trying for this one: I did get pregnant last year but had a miscarriage at 13/14 weeks. That screwed my cycles a bit, and we have been trying for 8 months to catch again. Fingers crossed for us all

Welcome ununpentium, for DS I cand off the pill and was pregnant before I had any form of period so you never know!

Forgot to OPK at all yesterday so could have missed the surge. Just done one now and it’s negative, not even a suggestion of a line. I’m CD15.

DH saying last night how he isn’t sure about another child now.

Where do you think that's come from basin??

Ah we go back and forth on it 8days, and DS has been an utter arse the past few days so it’s lookingless attractive right now. I don’t think the heat helps.

It’s a weird one, we are fairly content as a family of 3 right now and there are obviously upsides and downsides to both having another or not. We’ve both just got pretty decent pay increases and are fairly flush right now. I think the thought of handing it all over in childcare is not sounding too good either.

If I’m honest if I wasn’t 35 I probably wouldn’t be looking to TTC right now but I do feel like if we didn’t go for it soon then we will have closed that door which feels sort of sad.

I said ‘right now’ a lot in that

My DH was the same for a while where he would go back and forth between wanting another one and not. I think he's pretty set on yes now but every now and then he talks about money etc. He's one of them that will um and ah until it happens and then he's over the moon 😂

It’s me that’s getting cold feet in our relationship. I really do want another child but if I’m honest I’m not sure if it’s too soon after my mmc. But, age is not on my side (37) and I’m scared that putting it on hold for a while isn’t such a good idea.

I guess it's normal to go back and forth sometimes. I 100% want a second, but work wise I would love to change jobs. I don't want to change jobs and fall pregnant, so my plan is have a second, take maternity then go back to a different job. Of course, 5 months into TTC and I'm still unhappy in work and not pregnant. There's always some reason to delay things. I want a closer age gap so I'm really not keen on waiting a year or two but it's an ongoing battle within myself of what to do work wise.

On the subject of OHs being an asshole, don't you hate it when you have an argument but you're in your fertile week and it's like... I don't want to have sex with you but I want to be pregnant so let's just do this 😂

@8daysaweek this is my life right now 😂😂😂
Got my positive opk this morning but I’m pissed off with DP - but im gonna stew on it til Tuesday 😂

Hahaha so not just me! That's exciting about the positive opk though 😁 almost in the 2ww!

All the time! 😂😂 il pretend I'm over it until were out the fertile week then he will hear about it 😂

Hi all, going to join this as I’m usually a snooper but feel I’m starting to go slightly mad with TTC.
Age - 29
TTC #1
Cycle #6
CD - 21 of a 31-35 day cycle
Peak OPK on CD 16 so could be 4/5 DPO
AF due - 17th Aug

Today I had a bit of EWCM and last month I got two peaks using the clear blue monitor. I know you aren’t supposed to test after your peak but I did as I had EWCM. I think I might be gearing up to ovulate then I actually ovulate later and that’s why my cycle is long. Frustrating as my OH works away and this month was the FIRST month he was home when I got a positive OPK. So disappointed to see EWCM. If it doesn’t happen this month I am going to stop tracking and delete my apps because there’s nothing more frustrating than getting a positive OPK and your partner is away 😢.
