Two week wait - help keep me sane!

[sav89]

Hi ladies,

I have been TTC for four months now. I actually didn't realise how stressful this whole experience is. I shouldn't have expected for it to happen straight away but i'm so impatient.

Anyway, would love to see who else is out there to join me on my TWW. I used CB ovulation tests this month and dtd the day before ovulation. I had an HSG last month and my tubes are all clear so that's good to know.

I am only about 2dpo. Obviously no symptoms the only thing worth mentioning is I have been getting these weird gurgling/popping noises in my stomach. It's SO strange I've never had this before. Maybe it's because I'm drinking lots of pineapple juice which I never normally do, who knows! What are you all doing to keep yourself occupied and not obsessing over this tww?!

I've booked my first acupuncture session this Friday so hopefully that will help de-stress me! Good luck to you all, would love to hear your stories x

@HouseplantInvasion I'm trying to wait until the weekend but I think I'll cave in and test tomorrow 🙈

Can I join? 7dpo. Ovulated late this cycle on cd18 or cd19 due to an early mc which started the last weekend of September. The waiting to test is driving me crazy. I got a bfp last time on 7dpo but too scared to test so early this month.

Hi Barker26 I hope AF stays away! When do you plan to test again?

Welcome mrsof20118 so sorry to hear about your mc. Hopefully this month will be better but amazing you got such an early BFP.

closedcircuit I had same thing as you, sore/dry throat in the morning. Was hoping this was a sign but not looking good for me.

I just bought a FRER and got a bfn :( I'm about 8-9dpo so still could be too early but just not feeling hopeful this month. Will test again at the weekend and I will know for sure.

Still no AF here, had really light spotting yesterday and the day before but nothing today. I also have such a sore lower back, much worse than usual AF. I am not getting my hopes up because knowing my luck it'll just be my body ramping up for an extra bad AF! If she doesn't show today I'll test tomorrow.

I have my fingers crossed for you all 

@sav89 I was going to test tomorrow if she doesnt show today.. I only have a cb digital though and worried I will be gutted if it says not pregnant! Also having lower back pain. Keep thinking AF is here then go to toilet and nothing... @closedcircuit I hope so too! So hard to stay distracted isn't it.... argh

Hope I can join you - i think I’m in the 2ww although I haven’t had a positive opk yet though did miss some days. I’m on cd 27 today and took Agnus Castus this month so think I may have ovulation earlier this time than usual. Going by the days I had strong pains in my ovaries I think I could be 5dpo, 10dpo of 14dpo! I’m going to keep testing with OPKS for now.,

Did a frer around 5pm... negative! But I had only gone for a wee around an hour before so now sure how accurate it is....clutching at straws...

@Barker26 there's still hope if she's not here x

@mrsof20118 thanks hun :) I did a frer this morning and I see a very faint line ? But having lost of cramps and the line is very very light... I've never had a bfp as this would be my first so i dont know what to think!!

@barker26 a faint line is still a positive! Have you got any pics of it? X

@barker26 how faint are you talking? Does it definitely look pink? I have everything crossed for you, but just to warn you I have had quite a few ultra thin grey lines on FRER so if it’s pink I’d say it’s a bro, but if not obviously pink then it may be an evap /indent line....I really hope it’s not! Obviously only way to know is to test again in a day or 2 and see x

Hi @charlyn!

I did a cheapy this morning (and I think I can see an ultra ultra faint line, the kind you have to tilt it all different angles and is really more of a shadow.....so I’m calling it a bfn and fingers crossed for tomorrow!

*its a bro...meant to be it’s a bfp lol

Argh!! I'm actually losing it! Can someone just make time go a little faster please? I'm calling the fertility clinic at lunch time to get my day 21 bloods results, then I can make a judgement on whether or not to test. At the moment I think I'm 9dpo, but could be completely wrong there. I just want to test, but I can't face the disappointment.

Can you see it ?

@houseplantinvasion it looks a bit grey...so annoying all I can do is wait....

I can see it....it’s so hard isn’t it, I think it does look grey, but it could be the start of a bfp or could be an evap/indent! I have everything crossed that it gets darker in the next few days. How many dpo are you? Xx

@houseplantinvasion 1 day late around 14dpo not sure exactly when i ovulated. Thank you so much I have a digital I'm going to try in the morning.. fingers crossed !!

@Barker26 omg so cool i definitely see a line! I really hope its positive for you tomorrow morning! Proceed with caution!

@samsward87 i compleeeetely relate i want time to go on turbo boost and to have a positive. I think thats why im holding back this month - very afraid of disappointment. 8dpo and holding out until sunday morning

@closedcircuit so frustrating isn't it! Good news is I got my results from my bloods and it's pretty conclusive that I did ovulate! Hurrah! We DTD slot around ovulation time so I'm hopeful. I'm 9dpo today, did a test and it was BFN but I'm ignoring that as I know it's too early to tell. Fingers crossed.

*a lot not slot. Silly autocorrect!

Hi everyone I got bfn today 9dpo thought I would post this to give us all some hope!

@samsward87 yaaay! Thats great news! Ovulation alone can bring so much hope.

@sav89 sorry to hear about that but thank you very much for posting its definitely keeping me open minded!

All day yesterday i was really tired and last night i was super bloated and felt a bit sick. This morning the tiredness hasn't gone away and now have an upset tummy. 👎 hoping i go back to being symptom-less soon as could be a sign of early AF arrival.

Ah @sav89 that gives me so much hope thank you!

Ooh @sav89 that’s brilliant to read, thanks for posting!!

I’m a bit confused, just had some pink spotting when I went to the loo, which I always get before AF, but usually 2-3 days before max. AF is due next Tuesday so 5 days away....hoping it might be implantation, but if I am pregnant and it’s just implanting then where the hell are my symptoms coming from?! I still have heavy, sore, tingly boobs, loads of abdominal cramps, mega tiredness and waves of nausea.....does that mean it’s all just in my head?

@samsward87 yay for ovulation
