I feel your pain, I'm on 9doo. This last week has been so slow!

Bethany0903 · 17/09/2018 09:24

I know I feel like it's dragging already! I just want to know if it's happened this month

I'm 4dpo too and it's really dragging in! When are you planning on testing?

SausageSimon · 17/09/2018 11:09

What does DPO mean please? Grin my guess is days past ovulation?

DeadDoorpost · 17/09/2018 11:27

I'm testing next week. This is the first month we've used ovulation sticks as I've only just started my periods again after my pregnancy with DS. And my app seems to be accurate as well without 9 months of data because I got a positive on the days the app told me. Fingers crossed!

Bethany0903 · 17/09/2018 11:46

I'm going to test Saturday I think I normally test all the time it's like an addiction but stopping myself hopefully Saturday it's positive, no symptoms or anything keep getting hot spells and have a heavy feeling in my abdomen and dpo is days past ovulation haha

I am 5dpo and the wait is reallllllly dragging this month! 🙄
I am going to test on 27th if AF doesn't show up before.
My body is seriously annoying in that the usual pregnancy symptoms are my normal AF symptoms.
@Bethany0903 are you testing this Saturday or the following?

Bethany0903 · 18/09/2018 19:44

@FlapJackered testing this Saturday I'm really nervous I do think I may have ovulated earlier but I'm still going to wait I have two frer tests so I'll do one Saturday and another if af doesn't turn up on the konday, I have been feeling a bit sick and sore boobs but that's it oh and an awful full heavy feeling in my uterus which is strange xx

@Bethany0903 good plan! Those sound like positive symptoms 🤞🏻

KinCat · 19/09/2018 03:24

I'm 7dpo today and really want to test early but the most sensitive test I can find is only 25ui so not sure there's much point? I've found some 15ui ones online but the delivery time is 8 days so not much point - I'll order some if my period comes though.

I've got no symptoms at all.

Bethany0903 · 19/09/2018 09:43

@KinCat I had no symptoms with my first but with my second I knew I was pregnant straight away! Hopefully we all get bfps this month 🤞🏻

I’m 5 dpo today and I’m already driving myself mad with symptom spotting 😂 I’m convinced my boobs are sore but I don’t know if they actually are 🙄 I currently have my 1 year old sleeping on me and I’m searching the internet for the earliest people have got a positive test. I had a positive 7 dpo with my son

Bethany0903 · 19/09/2018 10:02

@Suzie2287 you sound just like me 😂 I have a first response in my draw but trying not to use it 😂😂 need to wait until saturday!

TheOneRach · 19/09/2018 20:24

11dpo... testing Saturday

Tested today and bfn but that's no surprise... i just have NO patience at all!!!!

I THINK i have implantation bleeding... amongst other symptoms so I'm a nervous wreck about the possibility of my bfp coming... I'm trying to chill out as much as possible... what will be will be and all that...

Good luck everyone!!!! Xx

KinCat · 20/09/2018 02:28

TheOneRach I had a temp dip today at 8dpo and I'm really hoping it's an implantation dip! I've had a similar dip at this point in both previous cycles though so not that hopeful.

Just found out DH will be away on the day I'd expect my period and he'll be gone for 10 days. I'll test before he leaves but the tests I have aren't that sensitive. Argh! If this is our month I'd love to be able to tell him in person snuggled in bed with our cats!

Bethany0903 · 20/09/2018 07:56

@TheOneRach I tested too and bfn haha I expected that but just couldn't help myself! I've woke up this morning with a headache and feeling sick
@KinCat that would be lovely for you to find out before you DH is away! We have had multiple miscarriages this year so I just can't tell him until our scan this time I think I'd have an early one but I just don't want to break his heart again if the worst was to happen

Hi, I'm 8DPO today and said to myself that I'd wait until Saturday to start testing but tested this morning and not surprisingly got a BFN. I find the wait so frustrating! I started having some symptoms yesterday but they don't seem as strong today so preparing myself for AF. I've had 2 chemical pregnancies over the past 4 cycles.

Bethany0903 · 20/09/2018 11:31

Anyone else feeling a bit down ? I just feel like my mind is constantly on if I've concieved or not this month and I just keep thinking my AF is going to arrive 😢 it's so hard this process of waiting

OP posts:
FlapJackered · 20/09/2018 11:47

I am with you there @Bethany0903 the tww is so difficult and I always feel like I am waiting for the inevitable AF to turn up. Time just goes so slowly I can't believe it is still only 7dpo. I think I need to distract myself somehow - I am going away for the weekend tomorrow so hopefully that will keep my mind off it.
Is there anything you can distract yourself with? A project/diy or something?

Bethany0903 · 20/09/2018 11:49

@FlapJackered I'm okay until my little boy has a nap or something then my mind goes crazy! A a get away will be perfect for you to take your mind of things hope you have fun, think I'm going to clean the house again maybe some ironing it's just awful waiting especially when you have a test in the house!

FlipKat · 20/09/2018 13:21

Hi all, this 2ww feels like it's going on forever! I'm currently only 4dpo though short luteal phase means period is due Friday 28th. It has been my first cycle on Clomid after 20 unsuccessful cycles naturally. Trying not to get my hopes up but it is hard!! Had a scan on CD11 which showed two large follicles developing so I really hope I ovulated this month and that we DTD enough!

Bethany0903 · 20/09/2018 13:33

@FlipKat my fingers are crossed for you that it's been successful! Hopefully we all get bfps 😊

TheOneRach · 20/09/2018 13:33

My 2ww is almost up... but the closer the end gets, the more it drags...

Monday i started with very pale pink spotting only when wiping once a day... yesterday it was more brown but still very very slight. This morning i had 1 wipe of red and I've been just now and got some more brown.

AF due this weekend and I'm so confused... aaarrgghhhhh!!!!!!!

Bethany0903 · 20/09/2018 17:57

@TheOneRach that does sound strange! Wonder why! Have you done a test ? X

OP posts:
TheOneRach · 20/09/2018 19:07

I did a test yesterday but it was negative... i really am sooo confused x
