Anyone starting the TWW #2

[Gigi318]

Hey ladies, has anyone started a new thread? If so, link it for me and if not here it is!

@Laur89 @Ellsbells112 @Robbo93 @Lauren3118 @Anny27 @Gems7 @Happymumma29 not sure if I missed anyone!

Omg @Gems7 I'm so over the moon for you! Let's hope it's a positive sign for us all 🌟

@Annny27 hello sweet. Nothing to report from me I'm afraid, a normal 28 day cycle would mean start of AF mid next week for me .. but this is me, so who knows 😬 just sitting back and waiting for the drs to do what they need to do I suppose x

@PrettyTulip Thankyou 🥰 I'm so happy but it's so early , AF isn't due until Tuesday/Wednesday, I'm just taking one day at a time and praying the pregnancy sticks and she stays away.

I hope you are doing okay lovely, do you have any fertility appointments scheduled soon? Or are you just waiting for something to come through? Did you get the results from your OH's sperm test? Xxx

Hi, mind if I join in?

I'm 8dpo, ttc following a miscarriage in June.

Symptoms so far: cramping on both left and right sides, backache, nausea and I can’t sleep

Am I clutching at straws with this test? It’s an internet cheapie, I know I’m early but I’m just sooo anxious! I’ll be re-testing on 10dpo with a FRER but couldn’t wait

If I tilt I can see a hint? I think I'm going mad :(

*also omg didn't realise how dirty my wedding ring was!!

@octobersky19 sorry to hear about your MC, I'm struggling to see anything on those pics unfortunately.. but I know sometimes the camera doesn't pick it up when it's so faint and the lighting can affect it too when it's faint, like you said though 8DPO is extremely early for a clear BFP, implantation more commonly occurs between 8-10DPO, do a frer at 10DPO and hopefully it will be clearer for you but even then it's early, good luck! Xx

Hi everyone just hopping on here for some company, pretty sure AF is on her way today but dragging out as usual. Cd30 for me and been trying for baby number 2 for almost 2 years!

Hi everyone just got my positive opk today so tww here I come!

@Gems7 I know, looking at it now I can barely see anything I think I imagined it. Thanks so much for replying xx

@Gems7 that's when I think my AF will be due, but you know what my cycle is like.. it will probs not turn up for months 🤪 have you done any more tests?

DH got his tests back yes, his were all normal (therefore me being the issue😣). Hosp have asked my doctors to refer me for ovulation assistance so I'm just waiting for them to sort that xx

@PrettyTulip have you looked into taking myo inositol at all to help ovulation? I took it and got pregnant with my DS and again this time round! :)

@Laur89 yes I saw you posted about that and I've added it to my amazon basket to buy when my next AF arrives .. I'll try anything to assist it x

@PrettyTulip ahh ok, wasn't sure if you had seen it! Hopefully you won't need it but just thought I'd mention it :)

@PrettyTulip That's really brilliant that his sperm is okay, most of the issues that women face have a solution, it's most likely something minor and there's things they can give you. At least you are getting closer to finding out what it is.

I haven't tested again no, I'm scared to. I know that sounds pathetic but I'm scared the second line won't be there anymore and it will be a chemical, 😔 I'm really trying to be positive though but the worry is always there. I have no symptoms, just the odd headache here and there. I think I will wait until AF is due tomorrow/ weds and if she doesn't show then I might actually believe its real and test again xxx

Morning :) AF arrived this morning so into month 15 overall, month 9 since miscarriage 🙄🙄😭😭

@gems7 yes if you wait a few days then it will be darker so less stress :D

@prettytulip I am soooo confident as soon as you have ovulation help that you will fall!

I think me and @missgoldilocks have unexplained infertility which is the worst 😭😭

@anny27 ahh I'm so sorry 😔😭 it's the absolute worst!! Do the doctors class it as unexplained infertility even though you've had a miscarriage though? I know it's horrible but is there not hope because you did fall?? I don't k ow how they class it with that that's why I ask. I'm really hoping you get your bfp within the 12 month time frame after your miscarriage so that's within these 3 months 🤞🤞🤞🤞 have you thought about getting the hycosy done just to have a little flush out and see if it helps?
I'm thinking I have unexplained infertility too and it's really getting me down. I was speaking to my OH yesterday and I said I just think we need to go for ivf there's no point in iui when ivf has such higher conception rates. He's adamant to wait till. January but I honestly don't know of I can wait that long my mental health is seriously taking a beating and I just can't focus on anything else for long I'm actually quite down for about 3 weeks out of the month the only week I feel excitement is fertile week because I think maybe we can do it this time. I can't go on near on 2 years feeling like this which it will be nearly 2 years if we waited till january xx

@Missgoldilocks yeah i am really hopeful that we will fall in the next few months 🤞🤞🤞🤞 i have ordered those syringes and going to use it if we really cba to dtd. Feels less pressure!

Its very all encompassing I barely think of anything else. The other day I legit thought it was April because I was so all consumed in conceivinf and April baby this month that I actually forgot what the actual month we are in is 😭

Its good you have a target for January or atleast maybe start seeing the clinic in november/ December as it can take a few months even from first appointments to actually getting ivf

Because @gems7 dtd twice a day for a few days so maybe thats the trick! Dtd in the morning and syringe in the evening 😂

@anny27 yep you know what I thought prior was of it hasn't worked next month I want to do it twice one after the other since they say the next lot of sperm is better because I've done once morning and once evening it hasn't worked. This month we dtd every day from cd12 to cd15 but we've done that a few times and nothing.
Yeah I think I will push for us to start earlier but it's the money as well covid has fucked our business quite a bit so the money side of things is holding us back a bit too

I don't even have any words to tell you because I'm in the same boat I don't know how to not be upset or let it consume me because we'll it's really wanted isn't it? Just a shame really

@Annny27 oh gosh don't remind me 😫 from CD12 to CD16 we DTD twice each day. That's the first time we've ever done that though, we were doing SMEP then on CD12 we naturally had sex twice that day so I thought we should try and continue it until day after ovulation day.. (my OH is a little bit older than me and I always think "what if his sperm don't hang around for a long time") I thought 2-3 days in my head but then I got two bloody surges didn't i and had to carry on 😂

I'm really sorry AF arrived 😔 there's nothing I can say to make it any better, it's just not fair. One positive you can take from this cycle is the decent LP without spotting though isn't it.. the progesterone pessaries seem to be working well. Cycle 9 was lucky for me, I am keeping my fingers, toes and everything else crossed that it is lucky for you too.

@Missgoldilocks that myo-inositol powder looks interesting.. 👀
Covid has a lot to answer for doesn't it, I'm so sick of it, everything's weird and different, shopping and going out doesn't feel the same anymore, hope everything gets back to normal soon-ish and things get better for you. Xxx

Morning :)

@gems7 are you having any symptoms? Yes I am pumped for cycle 9!! We conceived in september last year and my little baby was due in june so I really want another little may/ june baby 🥰🥰🥰

@Missgoldilocks i feel like a shell of my old self. Just nothings that fun, I am jealous of all the people in my life who are pregnant and everything revolves around fertile days and tww 🙄🙄🙄 how much is private IVF?

@anny27 same same same! I can't focus. I just had a convo with my sis as well and I was saying I want to try isoflavones etc and then she brought up the fact I spoke about going for ivf which obviously we will have to if nothing else works and she basically said to me I shouldn't see ivf as a solution and it's 1000 times more traumatic.
I was like, Um, ivf is a solution that's why it's there but I never said it would be a walk in the park. However I would like the fact I had something to look forward to instead of being in the dark month after month 😬 that's what drives me crazy the unknown.
Private ivf I guess if you go to a good place about 4 grand maybe 5. There are places for cheaper but for something like that I guess you'd want to splash the cash a little.
I'm 9dpo today and no symptoms though yesterday I had feeling similar to cramps but I am 100 percent sure I get that every single cycle. I had this part of. The 2ww because I just want to know and then if I need to. Start again just start again :(

@Annny27 no symptoms at all 😳 AF due today or tomorrow, my boobs haven't been sore since before the MC.. wonder why.. our bodies are so confusing! Xx

@Gems7 have you done another test xx

Afternoon

Just wondering if anyone experienced a very light period starting 4 days earlier than your normal period?!

I'm approx 11 dpo at the moment and period due on Friday and I'm usually like clockwork on 28 days.

Today I went to toilet and have a very light period but no normal period symptoms of cramping and nauseous?! I usually always have this?

I done a test but it's BFN so assuming it's just an early period but could it be a late implantation bleed?!xx

@Missgoldilocks yeah I did one last night, still positive xx

@Lynne425 hi there, it definitely could be implantation bleeding and that wouldn't be late either :) give it till 3 days past the bleeding to do a test or wait till the day of your period is due but sounds super promising good luck let us know!! Xx

@Gems7 😍👌 that's amazing I'm so happy for you 😀💖 I'm so so glad that it rang true for you to be more fertile after your mc. Praying you have a sticky bean and a happy healthy 9 months you deserve it my lovely 😍❤️❤️🌹🎊 xxxx

@Missgoldilocks Thankyou so much 🥰😘

@Lynne425 could Defo be an implantation bleed.. I would test again in a couple of days when there's been enough time for the hcg hormone to show in your urine, good luck xx
