Hi, just starting my 2 week wait and wondering who else is too and how you stop your mind from going crazy and not thinking of anything else... 😬😅😂

@Hollielouise welcome! Are you ttc your first?

@Grainedesesame 3 days? I'm so confused about what's going on in my body right now... the only thing I can logically think is that I've ovulated a lot soon in my cycle than I thought and this is implantation
@Hollielouise of course! Think we're due AF around the same day, although I think I'll end up testing sooner as I'm really confused at the moment!

Thanks @Grainedesesame Smile Yes it's our first... I've just started using the ClearBlue OPK so finger's crossed that has helped with the timing. What about you?

Hollielouise · 20/09/2019 19:47

@Emae26 I think I had something similar to you last month... couldn't tell if it was ov or implantation as it came far earlier than my AF but ended up just being from ovulation. If you think the dates are wrong thought and it might be implantation then wait 3 days after the spotting has stopped - should be enough HCG by then. Exciting!

@Hollielouise ooh okay, I'll wait and see what happens and will do a cheap test after 3 days just in case it is implantation and will try and DTD tonight incase its ovulation. Really hoping it is implantation but the dates don't make much sense but fingers crossed!

Grainedesesame · 20/09/2019 22:21

@Hollielouise it's our first too! This is the first month of genuinely trying. How long have you been trying?

Rose87777 · 21/09/2019 00:12

Can I join you in 2WW? Currently 6dpo but due AF 30th sept! Ttc our 2nd - this will be 4th month of trying Smile

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 01:08

May I join? I'm in my TWW too Af due 30 Sept and I'm going to have to sit on my hands to stop myself from testing every 2 minutes!

Grainedesesame · 21/09/2019 05:57

Welcome @Rose87777 and @emojisarentwords we have the same AF date... 8 days to go! Do you have any symptoms?
@Rose87777 great that this is your second, you can possibly find matching evidence.
When will you start testing? I'm thinking Monday or Tuesday!

Rose87777 · 21/09/2019 09:02

@Grainedesesame I think I’ll get an frer at 10dpo which will be wed 25th. I’d like to say I’d wait until 1st day of missed period but that 100% won’t happen!

Have sore boops and a bit of cramping but as with every month not sure if I’m imagining it! How about you?

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 09:39

I already tested yesterday morning! But it was 'just to make sure' (that's what I told myself) I wasn't already pregnant from before and had got all my dates wrong (irregular periods). I'm going to make a determined effort to wait until next Sunday to test, will let you know when that fails! Fingers crossed for that BFP good luck ladies!

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 09:44

Symptoms are sore nipples but not boobs, 'stretchy feeling' down there, random cold symptoms but no cold.

Hayleylou89 · 21/09/2019 09:58

Hi Ladies, first time ever using this so bare with...Im TTC and i used Natural Cycles app and essentially im in the 2 week wait, Had positive LH readings cd 18 19 the app predicted ovulation cd20 but last night Cd23 i had what looked like implantation bleeding but is it too soon to get that as its only 5 days at most since DTD but this looked exactly as implantation bleeding is described i took a picture after a few wipes as it was a fair bit more on first wipe but still light pink...woke up today (CD24) and nothing when i wipe...how long until i can test my app says my period isnt due for another 9 days as my cycles are 35-38 days. Any advice welcome and thoughts on the bleed ??

Hollielouise · 21/09/2019 11:27

First month properly trying for us as well! Trying not to overthink and symptom spot too much! @grainedesesame Have you got any symptoms yet?
@Emae26 how are you feeling today? Did the ov/implantation spotting stop?

LillianFullStop · 21/09/2019 11:38

So typically I tested with a cheapie @ 8dpo and of course BFP. Symptoms messing with my mind again as I got stretching type cramps as I got up from the couch last night...

Also I seem to be extra spacey and forgetful... can baby brain come on this early 😂

Won't touch the FRER until the day AF is due on 26-Sep ... she says... 😖

Grainedesesame · 21/09/2019 14:38

@Rose87777 I know the feeling too well. I wish I was chilled enough to just wait for a missed period to test but definitely won't happen. I will wait til Tuesday which will be 9dpo (too early I know!)

@Hollielouise I'm really not sure about symptoms. I think it might be all in my head. I'm definitely cramping and stretching. Yesterday i felt sick and today my lower back is killing me.... but again I'm pretty sure it's all my imagination! Oh and I can't stop eating but surely that's not a symptom Smile

LillianFullStop · 21/09/2019 15:04

Sorry in my last post I meant to write BFN!

Emae26 · 21/09/2019 15:29

@Hollielouise was still happening this morning but I think its dying down now, still so confused about what's going on...

SugarPlumRoar · 21/09/2019 16:35

Can I join? I think im 4DPO with my period due to start on the 29th although my last few cycles have been various lengths so I'm not willing to bet on the 29th.

Trying not to symptom spot but my boobs are so painful I'm struggling to wear a bra, not reading too much into that though as it was the same last cycle on the days before AF arrived

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 16:55

We have the same AF date @Grainedesesame @Rose87777 has anyone got the sore boobs yet, worried because I defo haven't. Hope it doesn't mean I'm out.

Grainedesesame · 21/09/2019 17:33

@emojisarentwords no sore boobs for me. But don't worry, it doesn't mean anything. It still super early to get symptoms. Do you feel any different from previous cycle?

Rose87777 · 21/09/2019 23:04

@emojisarentwords my boobs are definitely sore but tbh it could just mean af is coming. Although my predicted is AF is 30th sept I’ve had cycles in the last few months that have been 21-23 days 😔.

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 23:19

@Grainedesesame I've caught a bug this cycle anyway but have been feeling run down. Nothing I'm feeling is definitively pregnancy symptoms though so just watching and waiting.

emojisarentwords · 21/09/2019 23:21

@Rose87777 I hope AF doesn't come too soon, irregular cycles are a pain. Did you test for ovulation or do you go by the app dates? I went by Ovia dates this cycle without testing.

DaiJai1066 · 22/09/2019 05:39

Can I join too please? I am in my tww and on Monday had a small pink discharge wiping. I have also never had it before but it only lasted for the morning. My app said it was my ovulation day so we dtd. I feel nothing, other than a slight ache on my left side! My AF is due in a week and it feels like forever!!! Any tips on how not crazy as I’ve been awake since 3! I never have problems sleeping!
