rollerskaterdata · 15/08/2018 09:37

Hi all! I'm in my first ever 2ww and was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat? Think I'm approx 1 dpo judging by previous cycle patterns, Ov pain and CM as I don't use OPKs or do BBT (too lazy!). Loosely followed SMEP this month, fx this is the month!

Age: 27
TTC: #2 (DS1 was a happy surprise)
Cycle No: 1
Cycle Length: 26-28 days
AF/BFP due: 29th August but I'll be testing on the 28th which will be CD 28

Looking forward to waiting with you all! And trying not to POAS at 5dpo Blush!

Well I'm deffo losing it ladies! 6 dpo today and walked past Poundland on my high street and couldn't resist going in and buying some pg tests! Not sure I'm going to be able to resist testing early 🙈😂

The cramping, bouts of nausea and sore nips continue...

@rollerskaterdata 😂😂 did you buy the stick ones? They're the ones I stocked up on the other day! Still holding out for the 28th? 😂 xx

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 16:28

@rollerskaterdata @cupcakesandglitter I don't feel any different bloody hell!! 😂😫😫

Let us know if you test early, I probably will to be fair hahaha xx

Daisymalone · 20/08/2018 16:32

Ladies, I feel the waiting until the 28th plan may be going awry...

cupcakesandglitter · 20/08/2018 16:38

@thejollytrolleydolly @Daisymalone we really don't have any self control do we? 😂

Only thing that's stopping me from testing is that I don't know when I've ovulated - could have been ten days ago, could've been two days ago 🤷🏻‍♀️ x

rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 16:51

@cupcakesandglitter @Daisymalone @thejollytrolleydolly LOOL yep, it's getting harder and harder to stick to the 28th!! I'm really sorry! (I actually feel really bad). My self control is growing weaker every day...it's really embarrassing but I've been nagging my DH's ear off about what to do because I want to test early but feel like I'll be letting you lovely ladies down 🙈 I really am losing it! 🤪

OP posts:
rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 16:52

@cupcakesandglitter yep I bought the sticks! I only bought 2 though because they were the only ones left, if there were more God knows how many I would have bought 😂😂😂

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 20/08/2018 17:15

@rollerskaterdata I bought ten Grin don't worry, I doubt any of us will last until then 😂 I am going to try, I don't think DH wants me to test early he knows I'd be more obsessed

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 18:00

@rollerskaterdata @cupcakesandglitter it's ok we are all nutters in it together so at least we can all laugh about it!

I'll probably do a test on n Friday/Saturday as I would potentially be 10dpo but I could be 6 or 7 🙈 I just don't know lol xx

rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 18:07

@cupcakesandglitter wow that is dedication! Although saying that I would've bought the same amount or more if there were more!! 😂

@thejollytrolleydolly I was thinking the same thing, start testing on Friday when I'll be around 10dpo. It makes me feel better to think I'd be testing this week rather than next! I really will try to hold on for longer but I can't say with certainty I will! 🤦‍♀️ glad I'm not the only one who may break earlier he he he! (Plus we can still test on the 28th to see if our lines have gotten darker if we have any!)

Welshpugmomma · 20/08/2018 18:07

@rollerskaterdata @cupcakesandglitter @thejollytrolleydolly I gave in already :( after working out I'd be 11 dpo
and af not but until 27th. I'm very anxious and hormonal thought I'd see but alas bfn .... will have to test again anyway but will leave it now.... eurgh why do we do it to ourselves !

cupcakesandglitter · 20/08/2018 18:45

@rollerskaterdata @Welshpugmomma @thejollytrolleydolly we definitely are all nutters 😂 I'm with you roller, don't know when I ovulated so this week may be a potential week! I'm gonna try to hold off as much as I can... we'll see 😂 I suppose yes, we aren't lying about the 28th 😂

@Welshpugmomma not to worry, try In a couple of days again? Xx

rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 19:32

@Welshpugmomma not to worry hun, it's soooo hard not to test!! Only thing stopping me is I know it'll be a BFN at 6dpo so no point wasting a test ha ha! At 10dpo however there may realistically be a chance of seeing a BFP (however small!) so I definitely won't test before then she says!

@cupcakesandglitter 😂😂 yes I'll still be testing on the 28th anyway so technically stuck to our plan! I've not given in yet though so who knows, I may make it until then without testing anyway!

cupcakesandglitter · 20/08/2018 19:37

@rollerskaterdata emphasis on the 'she says' part, I don't think we'll last until then Grin

GreatestShowWoman · 20/08/2018 19:37

Hi can I join? Should have ovulated Wednesday or Thursday but stupidly decided to buy the clear blue advanced tests and never got a peak on them only a high but then I don’t know if that’s cos I was late starting to test. Got low day 12 then highs day 13,14,15 then had to stop testing as was at a festival but no peak even though I should have ovulated day 13 or 14 as my cycle is always 27/28 days. I’ve had cramping all day and awful nausea today and yesterday.

rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 20:01

@GreatestShowWoman hi! Welcome to the madness 😁 we have lots of us cramping here with some nausea and sore nips so hopefully BFPs all round!

OP posts:
rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 20:02

@cupcakesandglitter we might! Yeah right! Grin

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 20/08/2018 20:06

@GreatestShowWoman yes we do, I've had sore nipples for over week  today I had a new one: hot flushes! I usually get them around AF (two weeks away) but today I've just been sweating buckets 😩

@rollerskaterdata tbh if I can hold on, and I get a BFN, I might take back what I said and treat myself to a large glass of wine

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 20:42

@Welshpugmomma hopefully in a couple more days you'll start seeing your second line ❤️

@rollerskaterdata@cupcakesandglitter@GreatestShowWoman I think of you want to test you should test! Personally I enjoy the POAS it's like a little game and I don't know what the outcome is going to be! 😂😂 I feel like my boobs feel a bit heavier today but I'm only 5dpo so I doubt much would be happening yet! I'm probably just imagining things.

Didn't feel any different until literally an hour ago lol! Illl be testing once (or twice) a week until I either get BFP or FP I just can't wait to see a positive pic soon!! 😬

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 21:14

Pick a card any card 😂😂

Mid August 2ww - anyone else out there?
GreatestShowWoman · 20/08/2018 21:16

@thejollytrolleydolly I’m 5dpo too I think I’ve had cramps, nausea and now sore boobs.

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 21:53

@GreatestShowWoman I feel pretty normal so I don't know if that's a bad sign although my boobs feel a little heavier but not sore or anything x

thejollytrolleydolly · 20/08/2018 21:53

It looks like we're in the same boat x

rollerskaterdata · 20/08/2018 22:56

@thejollytrolleydolly ha ha I love it! These are mine!
