Just looking for buddies to get me through the tww..

My app says I’m 2dpo but didn’t catch my exact peak just high fertility on clear blue and used cheapies to back up!

Having cramps and sore breasts but could still be ovulation?

Have been trying since around July 💗

Thanks @WooMaWang and @amysara24 I just feel relieved I’ve done something if that makes sense, will be nervous for the results though Confused

She did ask if I was pregnant and I said.. no.. but would that possibly come up on the bloods if I was I wonder xx

glad you're feeling better after getting you bloods done @Sunflower2019

my cramps are more in my back than at the front apart from a stabbing stitch pain on my left side that happens now and then since yesterday. I was in bed last and felt like someone had literally stabbed my inside with a knife it was horrible. Woke up today and only back pain though for now!

KikiMoon13 · 05/11/2019 11:42

btw ladies I've changed my name from KaylieMariie because it's too close to my actual name and I noticed someone I know on other threads 😂

Sunflower2019 · 05/11/2019 11:46

@KikiMoon13 OMG that’s awkward! I always worry about that 😂

I’ve got cramps and back ache too.. she did say ovulation pain can last a while so?

@Sunflower2019 Horrible isn't it. I even sneezed and felt like I had pulled a muscle 😂

Skyla01 · 05/11/2019 12:48

@Sunflower2019 I'm glad you got some reassurance from the nurse. Hopefully all your tests will come back ok. We've been trying for almost 8 months.

I noticed the last few cycles I get mild cramps from around 6 to 10dpo. Although didn't have any this month. Hope none of you are suffering too much with them! I'm waiting for AF cramps now but they don't usually start until a few hours before.

@WooMaWang really want the first bit of AF out the way before we fly. Don't want cramps and heavy bleeding when I want to be in the pool!

Sunflower2019 · 05/11/2019 14:18

@KikiMoon13 I know I had hiccups the other day and it even hurt!

@Skyla01 when are you due af? I wish I knew as my apps all messed up as I logged that opk in and it’s changed my af date!

Hoping I get some positive feedback from drs :) xx

OP posts:
Skyla01 · 05/11/2019 15:27

@Sunflower2019 I'm 11dpo, AF due between Wednesday and Saturday (most likely wed/Thurs, I got positive opk 2 days earlier than expected but not sure if I flooded the test or not).

Just want waiting to be over! Feeling ok but just want to know either way.

MummyJasmin · 05/11/2019 15:50

Can I join? My AF is due on 11th.

Its been my first month using OPK sticks and tbh I've just been left even more confused Confused Have no idea if I caught ovulation date.

Missdrifter · 05/11/2019 19:56

Welcome @MummyJasmin. How old are you and is this your first?

Good luck to everyone testing soon. I always start to feel so negative the second part of the 2ww 😩 I still have around 9 days until AF but today I have been feeling really thirsty and the past two nights I have got up to need a wee which is unusual for me.

WooMaWang · 05/11/2019 20:55

I'm feeling negative too. I don't want to get my hopes up.

Ellsbells112 · 06/11/2019 00:11

@WooMaWang me too. I can feel myself getting obsessive but also super frustrated in thinking already it's not my month. I literally cant stand this 🤦‍♀️

Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 05:24

Same here girls, dp woke me up before he went to work and I’m laying here thinking what’s wrong with me 🤦🏽‍♀️ Can’t go back to sleep!

OP posts:
MummyJasmin · 06/11/2019 10:04

@Missdrifter I'm 33, no health issues. LO is 18 mths (...who was a lot easier to conceive.)

I haven't had any signs or noticed anything different :S

Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 10:14

Welcome @Mummyjasmin sorry I was half asleep this morning!

Isn’t it strange how easy it is with first then after that fertility seems to struggle!

I’m also confused with ovulation.. plus my opks have been for the last two weeks!

Woke up with such a headache and feel abit sick but not taking it as a symptom think it’s tiredness!

Xx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 10:15

Meant to say opks have been so dark

OP posts:
WooMaWang · 06/11/2019 11:20

I'm feeling rubbish today. Snuffley and tired. I'm pretty sure I'm coming down with a cold. Bah.

9dpo today. Gradually creeping towards a point at which I can realistically test. AF is due at 17dpo (allegedly). I can presumably test any time from 14dpo. Surely? Or maybe I could just wait to see if AF makes an appearance first. I do really dislike POAS - i saw someone in here refer to the experience as 'Schrödinger's pregnancy' and the test as opening the box (to find out that the cat is not, in fact, alive). Then there's all that ambiguous is it actually a faint line stuff that I just cannot even countenance putting myself through.

As you can probably tell, this is the doom and despair portion of the TWW.

Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 11:53

@WooMaWang I feel like that too, which I don’t need as have my spa day tomorrow 😐 feel dizzy etc!
Just wish I knew how many dpo I am! I’ve ordered some cheap strips off amazon so I may test in a few days but I don’t think I’m pregnant... going by past experience. I think I’m just all over the place 😂 x

Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 11:54

@WooMaWang why is this always the depressing part

OP posts:
ceejla · 06/11/2019 12:06

@WooMaWang @Ellsbells112 @sunflower19 I am with you! I just know this isn't my month!

I wake up every morning with a heavy dragging feeling low down and disappears mid morning. I have put on about 4lb since I had implant removed end of Sept and today I am craving chicken nuggets (I mean I love chicken nuggets but not so much I will drive out on my lunch break to get some). Maybe I am just feeling sorry for myself that I am getting fatter and I want a baby. I am officially crazy.

How is everyone feeling today? If anyone going to test any time soon? AF is due for me any time from 12th to 15th so I think I am going to wait until that weekend if AF hasn't arrived.

Skyla01 · 06/11/2019 12:41

I think we need to try and find some positivity in this thread! I know this is a hard process, and I find the end of the TWW the worst part of the month. But we are all going to get our BFPs eventually, even if it takes time! Each cycle has a 1 in 3 or 1 in 4 chance of conception so some of us are bound to get BFP this cycle!

I'm 12dpo, AF probably due today or tomorrow. No sign of cramps yet. But do not want to get my hopes up so trying not to think about it at all.

@Sunflower2019 your cycle this month sounds very confusing. I hope it ends in success! But if not have you tried clear blue advances digital opk? I use them and have always found them very easy to read.

ceejla · 06/11/2019 12:45

@Skyla01 hear hear! 🙏🏼 you are totally right! How amazing would it be if we all did.

On a plus (slightly fatter note) I just indulged in a double breast breaded hot chicken bun with sweet chilli and mayo. So feeling somewhat better for myself 😂

Ellsbells112 · 06/11/2019 13:15

@ceejla @Skyla01 indeed! Positivity needed I agree! Lol I absolutely adore food so trying to get pregnant has totally added to my food eating 🤣 for some reason I fancied chocolate cake on monday and made my OH buy some, i finished it all by the next day! (A little cake now!) Hahaha I've been gym all week though, you know, balance and all that!! Haha!
We will get there, I keep reminding myself that some people try for 6 years 🙏🙏

Sunflower2019 · 06/11/2019 13:27

@ceejla I feel you! I’m gonna prob start testing when my original period was meant to be but I may cave in and test over the weekend or early next week?! That bun sounds lovely 😍

@Skyla01 yes you are right.. think we are having the baby blues before we’ve actually got pregnant 😐 will try cheer up! To be honest was hoping for it this month as a July baby would be perfect!
As you said it will happen when it’s meant too!
@Ellsbells112 you’re good, I don’t ever exercise but since hitting my 30s feel as if I should! Yes true, my mum was trying for 15 years with my sister 🤦🏽‍♀️ Hope I don’t have to wait that long as would of hit menopause by then 😂😂

Think most of my anxiety will hopefully go next week when I get my results for the bloods!

I’ve got period type cramps today so I reckon I’ll start period on 11th/12th my app predicted that then changed it as I had that positive opk later!

Anyone’s do doing anything their side? I’ve told my dp no smoking when he goes out drinking 😂 he has a vape but I can’t stop him using that and we mainly drink on a weekend or if he’s watching football.

@sunflower2019 it's hard not to have anxiety when you want something so bad, I had a scream this morning on the way to the gym with my OH I was like whyyyyy I have no patienceeeee lol

I'm lucky though hes really healthy always going gym eats really well hardly ever drinks maybe a glass of wine with dinner on a Saturday, never smokes lol so I dont have to worry I just stuff more vitamins down him and myself 🤣🤣
It's funny I got pregnant straight away and I smoked so much (dont smoke anymore) and drank more (hardly never drink now) and i was bloody 8 stone heavier!!
