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!

@Gems7 Aww that is just awful to think about but of course you don't want to stop trying!! I'm so hoping you get a sticky bean soon girl honestly I really do xxxx fingers crossed you get some good news but also that the gp can give you some help along the way!

Yeah it's just really confusing and I'm kicking myself because this has never happened before you know how regular I am lol but anyway, it could be late yes I have been testing so many times a day! Haha but I will stick to 2 now one morning and one evening and see if anything happens. I might have ovulated early on this stuff you never know but we dtd cd10 so hoping there's a slight chance if that's the case. Just gotta wait and see I guess xx

@Missgoldilocks hopefully we all get what we want, and sharpish!! 🤞🏻I'll let you know what the gp says tomorrow and here's hoping your sticks start showing that dark line!

Rant alert..

I thought when you were ovulating you were supposed to feel at your sexual best?? All sexy and attractive..
So why do I feel like an absolute dumpling!!
Bloated, fat and cranky! 😂
I'm sure that's not what's supposed to happen, GOD DAMN YOU TTC!! 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
Xxx

@Gems7 awww babes that's the worst when you feel like that!! Don't worry about it, drink loads of water that always makes me feel better in like a day! Lol

Well still stark white opks and cd17! I had a tiny bit of ewcm last night, so might just dtd tonight just in case as dish tmanage it last night

Hope everyone is OK x

Morning :) 6dpo now for me

@Gems7 thanks lovely, I really hope so! The joy of thr first trimester is gone for us unfortunately with our miscarriages 😭

Hahah your body us so bored of ttc as well that it doesn't even make it sexy during it 😂😂

@Missgoldilocks does your cm change after ovulation? Thats how I know that I have ovulated if I do ovulate early

@anny27 yeah it normally dries up. All the while we was dtd over the weekend I was dry (I thought it was the isoflavones) but last night wet and today wet. I'll keep an eye on it but will dtd tonight and every other night. I'm just bugging because I've read some posts that some people didn't ovulate at all on them! Why didn't that info come up when I was researching!? 😑
How are you? Xx

Well I got nowhere with the gp!
I had a telephone apt scheduled for 9:30, I work in a hospital so I made sure I was available at 9:15, 15 mins before my apt!! I sat in the restaurant and checked my phone to see they had bloody called me at 8:50 over half an hour before my appointment!! I called them back and the receptionist was just so rude and unhelpful, said i could reschedule for another 2 weeks, I put the phone down on her in the end then just sat there and cried! My gp surgery is literally the worst!!
I am off tomorrow, and I'm going to call a private clinic first thing and pay privately, I can't wait any longer!!
Nightmare!! Xx

@Gems7 oh that's just horrible!! You should look up go surgeries in your area to find out which is the best rated and switch to them! That's terrible :/ xx

I got my peak! Two days lqlate today is cd17! But I got it and lots of ewcm x

morning girls :) 8dpo for me and the 2nd part of the tww starts when I become a bit crazy :p but I actually think times have changed I used to be madly obsessed over each symptom but now i almost start the tww thinking that I am out......ofcourse with a glimmer of hope!

@Missgoldilocks oh glad your peak wasn't too delayed ;D tww for you too then!!

@gems7 thats so rubbish that the GP didn't stick to yiur appointment time!!! Have you managed to rearrange?

@Annny27 yeah I was so upset about it all that day, I anxiously called them back yesterday but spoke with a lovely girl who was so helpful and made me an appointment for this Friday with a doctor that the hostile receptionist I spoke with on Tuesday told me I would have to wait another 2 weeks for... why are some people so rude and unhelpful eh!? There's just no need to be like that with people, you never know what they are going through, she's clearly in the wrong job!
Anyway I'll see what they say now on Friday, I'm not working so if they call early this time I will be ready! Haha if I get told I have to wait until I have had a third miscarriage then I have a the number for a private clinic. Can I ask you which one did you use? What did you ask for when you called them? The one I have been recommended offers Alpert's of fertility assessments etc on their website but I feel like I don't need most of it.. my tubes must be ok, sperm, ovulation etc.. I literally just need to speak to somebody I think and maybe have the pessaries that you were issued with..

It's sad isn't it that you have to count yourself out from the start, that you aren't allowed to get excited and get your hopes up, it makes it easier for us to deal with when we write ourselves off! I'm very envious of the women who are happy and excited the whole way through. I've got my fingers tightly crossed for you this cycle! Xx

That was supposed to say "allsorts of fertility assessments"

@gems7 I contacted my local private hospital because they have a fertility specialist there (who is also my local NHS consultant for fertility). So not technically a specific fertilitt clinic.

I would just google subfertility specialist and then where you live and hopefully there will be someone nearby!

@Annny27 Thanks hun xx

@Annny27 I have spoken with the GP this morning and she is referring me to the fertility clinic. I think it's just a waiting game now.. I really hope it's not a long one though xx

@Gems7 that's really promising:) I csnt get referred to nhs fertility untill November so only 2 months away now i guess!

9dpo for me and no symptoms just normal tww but then again I wouldnt expect symptoms so early

@Annny27 4DPO for me, also nothing. I haven't felt "pregnant" both times I have been though. What are your usual tell tale signs that AF is coming? Do you get any?
November is only just around the corner, will be here before you know it, I may still make a private appointment yet, who knows how long the nhs one will take, she said there's a waiting list xx

@gems7 thata promissing that each time you have had different symptoms and non symptoms etc.

Before AF my boobs get smaller than they have been in the tww and my cm dries up a bit. But nothing too noticable! How about you?

Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind me joining.
I've came to the end of my 2ww
My AF is due today and normally comes bang on time with spotting the day before but I have had nothing except very very light staining this morning. Took a test yesterday and it was negative.
It's very strange that my AF is not on time has this happened anyone else? Light staining on day AF due?

@Annny27 it's just bloating and cramps for me but nothing unbearable xx

11dpo and had some slight brown cm 😔 so i think that's me out! Even with the progesterone I am taking which is annoying! Will take thek for a few more days untill 14dpo but pretty sure its me out now

Feel so shit and depressed today

@anny27 I'm sorry 🙏 😩🤗 I know its sad and depressing and so hard to just keep on going with the hope just to get shot down honestly I know. I'm just sorry and I know there's not much I can say but I'm here with you in this battle xx

Currently 6DPO here! First time I've ovulated since coming off the pill so crossing my fingers

@Missgoldilocks thanks lovely! Had a massive cry this morning and now i am ready to take on the world again

This sounds really silly but i am meeting my friend who has a 2 year old on the weekend and I am 80% sure she is gonna announce she is pregnant and I am gobna have to fake the excitement. I am happy for her obviously if she is but its so painful to hear isnt it.

Its not even happened and I already making up scenarios she might not even be 0regnant 😂😂😂

@anny27 80 percent lol that made me laugh. Ahhh it's so hard isn't it because you want it so bad and people are just falling pregnant twice over while we are still trying. Just try and be supportive and maybe open up to her about it all. Sorry you had a cry but glad you feel better xxx
I dunno I'm dreading another month of this just feels like it'd not going to happen and I can't take the emotional stress it's sooo hard. I'm 6dpo today and nothing but really bloated, I stayed at my friend's over the weekend and we ate so much crap though so I'm putting it down to that.

@Gems7 how are you? Xx
@PrettyTulip hey how are you doing? Xx

@Missgoldilocks hello lovey. After all this waiting around we're doing it's good to have them off days where you just eat crap. Don't beat yourself up over it.

@Annny27 totally get where you're coming from. Everytime I see someone friends/family wise I dread them pulling out the pregnancy card! It's hard to be excited for someone if they are experiencing what you've wanted for so long.

I'm 3.5 weeks into taking that powder. No idea if it's doing anything for me but I deffo had lots of CM (not sure if EWCM tho) which has now cleared up. I stopped checking for LH when I realised I was struggling TTC so I just go with the flow now but don't think I've had lots and lots of CM for a while... we'll see. I've got swollen feet, sore boobs and keep getting random twinges in my belly/pelvis so I'm hoping something is happening whether it's a bean or AF

Morning girls:) feeling a bit better now after my crying session haha!

@Missgoldilocks the emotional stress is huge isnt it! We have been all chatting on here for a year now! Its crazy

@PrettyTulip do you take the powder the whole month or just untill you ovulate?
