2 Week Wait Buddies?

Hello!

I know there's millions of these 2ww threads active at the moment but wondered if there is anyone out there who is 1 day post ovulation today and wanted to wait it out with me ☺️ I feel bad jumping onto someone elses thread when they're quite a few days ahead of me!

@Mimi91 I’m 11dpo today so AF is due Wednesday (thought it was Tuesday but just checked my dates and I remembered wrong 😂). I keep going and checking it to make sure I’m not imagining things!

Mimi91 · 03/08/2019 14:38

@MrsS147 omg, keep us updated!!

Mimi91 · 03/08/2019 16:20

FIL is round and I just overheard him asking DH when we're having kids. DH resounded with "don't. Please don't bring it up around (me). Trust me just drop it".

Internally screaming so hard right now. Surprised the question was directed at DH (for once).

Feel like such a failure to everyone. Just taken an OPK (meant to be ovulating today according to apps) and it's still negative.

Just popped by to offload Grin

@Mimi91 sorry to hear your feeling like that. It’s hard to hear people asking those questions when you’re trying so hard!

I think what I saw in my test yesterday was a shadow. I kept looking and I don’t see anything in it anymore and just took a test and it’s definitely negative. Wish I didn’t get my hopes up because I feel so much worse now. Looking likely I’ll be on to cycle 5 😔

Mimi91 · 04/08/2019 08:39

@MrsS147 argh, it's so disappointing isn't it. If implantation has only just happened, it may just be your hcg levels aren't high enough to be detected? Are you having any signs AF is on the way?

I'm so frustrated atm, my apps are telling me ovulation was 2 days ago, but I haven't had a positive OPK yet. Haven't even had a flashing smiley. We have been regularly DTD, but I hate not knowing where I stand. CD21 - where is my egg at? Envy

@Mimi91 sorry to hear that - but you're absolutely not a failure! It takes time to conceive and every month that you don't, statistically your odds go up for the month after. Stay positive and try to block out any questions from people who don't understand. And fingers crossed that egg makes an appearance soon ❤️

@MrsS147 ahhhh that's so frustrating. What kind of test did you use? It's so disappointing to see a line and then not BUT it might be down to other factors - are you going to try a test again tomorrow? Fingers crossed it comes back ❤️

I'm still undecided on whether or not to test. I've bought some IC which I've never used before. My app is saying af is due on Friday.

MrsS147 · 05/08/2019 17:40

@Mimi91 it definitely is frustrating 😔 just wish it was easy for everyone! I’ve been really emotional and had some cramping so she’s probably on her way.

That sounds so frustrating with the OPKs! Any luck today?

@Larrydavid I used an FRER. I’m not going to bother testing any more unless AF doesn’t turn up on Wednesday, I’m so bored of negatives now 😂 I wasn’t going to test early this cycle but since it’s my mums birthday today I wanted to surprise her if it was positive.

Have you decided if you’re going to test yet?

Mimi91 · 05/08/2019 18:46

@MrsS147 just taken another OPK and another negative. Starting to wonder if I've missed it or it's still coming? I have really sore boobs and a pressure feeling, feels like I'm just about to start AF 🙈 I did have random brown spotting last week, so maybe my cycle is completely out of kilter?

Cramping isn't necessarily a bad thing, so many women on here have experienced AF like cramping before their BFP 🤞🏼

Arghhh... why has that posted a million times???!!

Larrydavid · 05/08/2019 23:10

@Mimi91 I think the site was down earlier!

@MrsS147 I tested on an ic and BFN - since then I've had bad pms (such a bad mood!) and period pains so I think my period will be here in a day or two. It's rubbish isn't it! Sorry you're not having better luck!

MrsS147 · 06/08/2019 07:55

@Mimi91 how far into your cycle did you start the OPKs? Must be frustrating not knowing what’s going on with your cycle! Hopefully you get an answer soon so you know what’s going on!

Sorry to hear about the BFN @Larrydavid it really is rubbish! Hopefully we’ll all get some better luck soon 🤞🏻

Mimi91 · 06/08/2019 13:52

@MrsS147 I started on CD15, ah well, will just wait and see 😂 how are u getting on?

MrsS147 · 06/08/2019 17:37

@Mimi91 I suppose time will tell! Hopefully you’ll find out soon what’s up!

AF appeared this afternoon 😬 at least it’s a day earlier than I expected and I can move on to next cycle!

Mimi91 · 06/08/2019 19:30

@MrsS147 aw no ☹️ I'm sorry! Hope you have something comforting to eat/drink this evening 🧁🍷

Larrydavid · 06/08/2019 20:55

@MrsS147 I'm sorry! That's so rubbish. I'm expecting mine in the morning. I hate this stage. I'm just ready to move onto next month now.

@Mimi91 how are you getting on? I forget, are you tracking ov?

I might start temping next month - do either of you do that/ have recommendations?

Mimi91 · 06/08/2019 21:34

@Larrydavid really hope it doesn't show.

I track my cycle with apps and OPKs, I've also temped before but it gave me false hope and didn't do it again.

No positive OPK this cycle so far (CD23). It's a clear blue digital (thought I'd splash out on a decent one), so now I'm thinking I just haven't ovulated 🤷🏼‍♀️ or my cycle is going to be ridiculously long?

May temp again next month, i bought a BBT thermometer from Amazon ☺️

MrsS147 · 07/08/2019 13:11

@Mimi91 I had some ice cream in the freezer for this exact occasion and it’s now all gone 😂

@Larrydavid hoping it stays away for you.

I temped cycle 2 and again last cycle. I did it vaginally this time round as I’m a mouth breather and I got too many weird temps that stressed me out because of it. This time round worked a lot better though and helped me pinpoint ov along with checking cervical mucus without using OPKs (I hate holding in pee and I drink a lot of water 😂). I got my BBT from Amazon as well.

I went to the doctor this morning as my anxiety has been pretty bad the last few days. I’ve been up since 3 this morning worrying and phoned DH at half 4 in tears (he works nights) and he told me he was taking me to the doctor when he got home. She was actually really helpful! Although we’ve not really being trying that long she booked me in for a blood test on the 26th and DH for a sperm analysis to put my mind at ease. Pretty shocked we were offered this early but hopefully the results are good and i can just be calm in waiting it out.

Crazybunnylady123 · 07/08/2019 13:44

Ok, hello everyone.
I just need to talk because I’m getting to excited over what might not be.
My period is three days late. But that’s not exactly abnormal for me as mine are all over the place. But using the tracking app for almost a year now so it’s more accurate.
Anyway pain in my right ovary yesterday evening, headache currently, pain down below. Feel like I’m going to start my af, but nothing there. There was a tiny bit of blood there when I wiped earlier.
I’m also very wet down there (sorry tmi)
What do you all think, I have a chance right?
I also have a massive spot on my chin. I don’t ever get spots.

Mimi91 · 07/08/2019 20:33

@MrsS147 Ice cream is my go-to as well and I have definitely polished off a tub in one sitting before 😇

Sorry you're having a rough time with your anxiety, really good they are running tests though to put your mind at ease, we'll definitely be doing this if we don't conceive by the end of the year. Hope you get on okay.

Mimi91 · 07/08/2019 20:35

@Crazybunnylady123 sounds promising! The ovary pain and spotting could potentially be implantation 🤞🏼
