2 week wait

[NinaPS]

So I thought I would start a thread and see who else has started the dreaded TWW, I'm currently 2DPO and finding it impossible to wait to find out the outcome, so I need some ladies to share my insanity with.

@NinaPS WOW TWINS could you imagine! ah I would have loved twins first time around... not now with an energy ball of a toddler around though lol.

It is strange, it's difficult not to compare too! I think I'm going to try and hold off from an early scan... if I can!

I'm also going to try and wait to so another digital next week- we'll see how that goes 🙈 xx

@DramaLama2019 different is good! But even the same can be as some people don't get any symptoms til later on 😁🤞🏻could be implantation ☺️

@NinaPS you could have implanted earlier or just have really strong hcg 😂 or could be twins! So many people have said they think I'll have twins and I have no family history of it which I've found amusing! 😂 twins would be amazing!

I feel like I want one as I'm so worried about it sticking I don't think of o get past af I'll be able to wait for another 2 months 😩

@DramaLama2019 I am in the same boat as you AF is due on 30th for me as well. I did a test yesterday and got a BFN but I am really bloated and get odd twinges near my belly button like someone is stabbing with a needle. I am going to try and hold out until Friday to do another test.

It is still early for us both yet so try and stay positive even though it is easier said than done

@JenDaw @Abi58 my mum is a twin, and her mum and dad were twins aswell 😱😂 so the twin gene is lingering somewhere 😂
The urge to want to scan sooner is unreal but I would like to hold off and just go with the flow and try not to become a paranoid mess.
@JenDaw I also have a CB test left and think I will test next week to see whether the number has changed 😂

@NinaPS wow so you have a strong chance!!

I will speak to my husband when I feel a bit more secure next week to see if we do an early scan! We want to tell parents soon and it would be nice to have reassurance of scan before saying anything (I know that things can still change but at that time knowing it's fine would be amazing!) I'm such a worrier!
(So I'm already a paranoid mess 🙈)

Ooooo exciting! I have one but too scared to take it! Did one last month day of af and it said not pregnant so I knew it wasn't going well as it was clearly decreasing 🙈

@Abi58 oh no :( well hopefully when you do decide to d a CB it will say pregnant ❤️
I think we are going to tell his parents this week just because I don't like keeping secrets from them and want to behave naturally around them.
I have been to the doctors today and I have an infection which requires antibiotics the doctor has reassured me they are safe but I don't know how to feel about it but I have to take them :(

@FredMyl the cramping seems to have stopped ! It's such a headache trying to work it all out 😅fingers crossed this is our month ! X

Thanks all.

@JenDaw I'm usually a serial tester! I can't put myself through it this time if it turns out to be another co though think I'd rather not know.

The spotting & cramping has stopped, it was only mild and a bit of spotting but I never ever bleed between cycles so fx that's a good sign and was implantation, it was old blood too it seemed.

Congratulations to all those who have their bfp's! X

@NinaPS aw thank you ❤️🤞🏻 I'll keep you posted with when I'm brave enough to do it!

Hopefully the line will get a bit darker. I think I'm going to do it sat evening with my husband :)

Yeah I understand that I'm rubbish with secrets as well. Will be nice to get their reaction and be able to act normally 😁

Aw hope you're better soon! They should be fine they would tell you otherwise. It's quite common to take them during pg. how long do you have to take them for?

@DramaLama2019 sounds promising 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@ineedanotherholiday 🤞🏻 that's a good sign for you

@Abi58 I'm on a 7 day course. You just feel like you don't want to put anything into your body as you fear it will affect the baby in some way (even though I'm sure it will be fine)

@NinaPS don't fret lovely. I had lots of antibiotics with my 3yos pregnancy.
Which ones are you on?
The doctor would be in a lot of trouble if they weren't safe. Its not worth the risk so they will definitely be fine.

@Treaclepie19 I'm trying not to 🙈 they've prescribed me Flucloxicillin

@NinaPS hope you're ok hun! Doctors usually use the line 'take them if the benefit outweighs the risk" if there's even a sight concern- if they just told you to take them I imagine they're fine xx

@NinaPS I work in clinical trials and I can tell you that if a doctor says it's safe it's because extensive research has gone into making that claim. If it's not had the trials done to check then they are not allowed to say it's safe

@NinaPS I hope that helps you feel better or at least a little reassured

@NinaPS nhs says it's fine (if you google it) i understand what you mean though💕 main thing is you need to feel ok and be healthy for your baby 💕

@FredMyl thank you that does make me feel better. I'll try to stop worrying about it now and get on with it 😂

@JenDaw thank you Hun, I think I'm just over thinking it. I'm sure I'll start to feel better as soon as I start taking these antiobiotics. What a time for it to happen 🙄

So ladies I need a bit of comforting. I told my family which consist of sister, dad and step mum. Everyone but my step mum was happy for me. As my mum is very religious and me and OH and engaged to be married but not actually married she's not very happy. She didn't congratulate me at all and told me 'it was wrong' and 'what will people say'. Safe to say I broke down in absolute tears.

@NinaPS don't let her words get to you because at the end of the day they are just words. All that matters is that you and your OH are happy and the baby is healthy. When the baby is born she will change her mind honestly.

@FredMyl thank you, and deep down I know I don't care what she thinks or what anyone thinks as me and the OH couldn't be happier but her words hurt as she's making our baby out to be some sort of abomination and this is a time I'm supposed to feel happy but instead I feel hurt

Oh @NinaPS. That's a really crappy thing to say (also, I'm catholic, but would never say that- but really don't mean to offend anyone!). Don't pay it any mind hun, she'll get over it! And agree- just wait until little bubba arrives- she'll be eating those words xxx

@NinaPS no baby is an abomination only the people that treat them that way. I can tell you now she will come round and if she doesn't then so what would you want your baby around a negative person? I wouldn't. Chill out, relax and enjoy every moment of your pregnancy.

@JenDaw @FredMyl thank you so much, your such lovely ladies and I've genuinely had more support from you guys than people who are supposed to be family. This is my first baby and I'm determined not to let anything get in the way of my happiness, I guess I just have to ignore the negativity and concentrate on what's important. Families huh 🙄😂
