14dpo (such torture)

[TrailGrazer]

I'm 14 dpo today, usually I have a 29-day cycle so I'm not late technically until Tuesday.

This is my...35th (ish) cycle of trying. Known fertility issues, unfortunately, currently waiting for an operation.

I haven't had my normal PMS signs. It's very odd. No acne, no cravings, no mood swings, nothing. And usually I feel mild cramps but I've only felt short, sharp twinges in my lower abdomen the past two days. And very woo and ridiculous, but I had a dream a few nights ago that I had a row of negative tests that turned into positives.

I know, I know, don't symptom spot. It's torture.

can't help it

Anyone else in the last few days of TWW?

Sorry to hear of your ttc struggles @TrailGrazer I'm under a fertility clinic, waiting for my hysteroscopy after over 20 cycles ttc.

I have conceived once in this time but had a missed miscarriage in April. The month I did get my bfp I didn't have any symptoms but, I did have a really vivid dream about my baby 2 days before I tested (the day af was due), so it could be a good sign.

Do you usually have a longer luteal phase?

I'm only 6dpo, we did smep as a last ditch attempt before the op in a couple of weeks. Fingers crossed for you 🤞 xx

I can't help at all but fingers crossed and hope you manage to take your mind off it for a bit, take care

@VenusStarr thanks for your post, I'm sorry to hear you're having struggles too. And I'm so sorry about your missed miscarriage in April, that's heartbreaking. You sound very strong and fingers crossed for you too.

I have endometriosis which has caused damage. And DH has a sperm count of only a few million, though high mobility and high quality. It's very unlikely this cycle has worked but every month I wonder, usually at around this time. I envy those that can switch off!

I'm hoping after my op to remove the Endo and 'flush' my tubes that we'll be successful, but rapidly having to come to terms with the possibility of it never happening.

Infertility is something I wouldn't wish on anyone. And of course everyone I know is getting pregnant within two seconds of trying. My cousin just announced she's pregnant with her third.

@Whatnext11 thank you that's really kind.
