Anyone else want to buddy up for the 2WW?

AF is due May 30th so I am 1dpo today.

I am determined not to POAS until 12dpo but I know I'll be caving by Monday Hmm

Morning all 7dpo here, no symptoms whatsoever - of pregnancy or AF which is different because I was loaded with them last cycle. Still doing my temps which went up again this morning. Gives me faith that my body is actually doing it's thing correctly, so that's a great start!

Hope your yucky cold clears up soon @MeganMama28

@tisonlymeagain - that sounds positive maybe? I’m about 9DPO and feel crampy and have a breakout so not feeling too optimistic for this cycle.

tisonlymeagain · 23/05/2019 11:09

Hopefully - but not holding out too much hope @ELW85 I really got my hopes last cycle and it was so disappointing so trying not to do that this time.

Nothing much going on here. It’s too early for symptoms either way (I’m about 6dpo) and I’m having a bit of a bad day so part of me wonders whether adding another little one would be the best idea right now!

ELW85 · 23/05/2019 12:23

@tisonlymeagain - I totally hear you, and feel exactly the same!

@Clettercletterthatsbetter - oh no, I hope you’re ok? I’m sure it would all be fine anyway if you were lucky this cycle!

tisonlymeagain · 23/05/2019 14:49

Ha @Clettercletterthatsbetter I hear you! I keep thinking the same. Feeling so tired recently and keep thinking "really? Is this a good idea at my age"

So AF arrived early today just in time for the Bank Holiday weekend 😔 Will be indulging in coffee and wine to make myself feel better!

teejam · 24/05/2019 13:26

I'm just starting the TWW. Longest time ever

tisonlymeagain · 24/05/2019 14:14

8dpo and I'm like....STILL? FFS. I'm hoping a busy bank holiday weekend with my kids will take my mind off it and by Monday I should be able to test.

@tisonlymeagain I'm 8-10dpo (not sure how to interpret my chart) so really itching to test as well but don't want to test too early 😭

A busy weekend should take you're mind off it 😁

tisonlymeagain · 24/05/2019 14:19

Yeah I am erring on the side of caution as according to Fertility Friend I could be just 7dpo @Abi58 At least we should know next week.

@tisonlymeagain 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm so excited and nervous!

How are you feeling?

tisonlymeagain · 24/05/2019 14:31

Alright @Abi58 today is the first day I've started experiencing any AF type symptoms, with boob ache and a small amount of cramping. Last month I felt them really early on. Trying not to get my hopes up as I was really disappointed last month which was silly as it was only cycle 1 so I'm trying not to symptom spot and just be a little more que sera sera.

How are we all doing? Any BFPs yet?

We’ve come away for half term and I’ve deliberately only brought two tests with me. I tested yesterday before we left and it was the most negative negative you’ve ever seen, but I was only about 8dpo so I’m trying not to lose all hope.

I think I’ll use my two tests on Wednesday and Friday (AF is due around Friday/Saturday) but I’m pretty sure I’m not pregnant this month. I don’t feel pregnant, and any symptoms I’ve been having could just be down to the time in my cycle (mild cramping, emotional).

I’m preparing myself by thinking ahead to next cycle and what we can do differently. I think I need to give up the 🍷 and be more committed to actually having sex around ovulation time!

tisonlymeagain · 27/05/2019 07:22

ooh yes @Clettercletterthatsbetter I forgot to update this thread duhhhh. I got my BFP yesterday at 10dpo on a FRER, an IC and a Sainsburys test. Just did a CB Digital and it was positive too so it's starting to feel more real. Haven't told DP yet as he's away.

I didn't have any symptoms - just sore boobs which are totally normal for me anyhow and some light cramping and backache, again totally normal. The only thing that was different yesterday was headaches and some creamy CM.

Good luck for when you test!

Starting the 2WW today - anyone else?

@tisonlymeagain Congratulations!!! Is this your first baby?

tisonlymeagain · 27/05/2019 08:02

No @Clettercletterthatsbetter but first with DP, and first in 12 years Shock

@tisonlymeagain Lovely to see those words on a CB!

ELW85 · 27/05/2019 09:22

@tisonlymeagain Congratulations!!

AlaskaWaves · 27/05/2019 09:47

@tisonlymeagain congratulations!

Clettercletterthatsbetter · 28/05/2019 06:43

I’ve spent the past few days thinking that if it didn’t happen we should stop trying for a few months....

So of course I’ve got a faint second line on a test this morning at 10/11dpo...

I think I’m in shock. I know it might not turn into anything but still...a third child. Wow.

Clettercletterthatsbetter · 28/05/2019 12:17

That probably sounds like I’m not happy about it, but I am - just in shock!

tisonlymeagain · 28/05/2019 13:16

Oooh that's good news @Clettercletterthatsbetter, congrats!

I know what you mean though, I was just on the verge of saying we'd stop for a while...

OP posts:
AlaskaWaves · 28/05/2019 21:54

@Clettercletterthatsbetter congratulations!
