TTC number two... still breastfeeding. I temped with Baby 1 but this time going on ewcm and rise in libido! Cycles are pretty regular but slightly long at 32-35 days but they've always been like that. Periods returned when my greedy EBF baby was only 4 months and have been like clockwork. Baby is now 18 months old.

Anyone wishing to join and just about starting the 2 week wait are welcome!

@sojo44 tenderness can be a symptom though! Mine were super sore with ds with admittedly not until a few weeks in... Its been ds birthday this weekend so been busy enjoying that but now just back to the same old work/nursery/playdates routine so not sure how I'm going to pass the next 12 days 🙈 I didn't use frera with my first and got faint positive at dpo so fingers crossed 🤞🏻 though I have no cheapie this time just 2 frers and one digi CB in the cupboard waiting! Still bit bloaty and crampy but not necessarily a symptom for me :/ how are you going to keep yourself from poas? 😂

@Elly88 Thankyou it was awful but feeling much better now and so ready to be pregnant again I hope this is all of our months! I have noticed that my boobs aren't sore yet when usually they have started getting sore straight around ovulation.hopefully it's a good sign. I have loads of cheap tests that I didn't use last month but I will try to hold off too.

I think this month is definitely harder as we don't have Christmas to distract us.

dizzy85 · 05/01/2020 18:35

@rosie990 hi 👋🏼 wishing you luck in your tww. How many cycles are you on? Are you trying for first?

Sxd515 · 05/01/2020 18:36

Hi all

I'm definitely symptom spotting and driving myself mad as only 3/4 dpo. Going to work tomorrow will be a good thing for sure haha.

Fingers crossed for everyone x

dizzy85 · 05/01/2020 18:42

I'm glad we all get as crazy as each other in this tww before I used mumsnet I thought I was completely insane and obsessed, googling the most bizarre things but I'm happy to know it's not just me 🤣
I keep also getting the odd stabby feelings on one side..just noting incase it leads to a bfp 😆

Iheardit · 05/01/2020 18:47

Joining the wait, not due till 16/1. Hope everyone is hanging in there and not going crazy. I am reading into every twinge/ache/pain

dizzy85 · 05/01/2020 19:13

@Iheardit my af is due the 16th too!

Ktn35 · 05/01/2020 19:45

I think I had a chemical last month too ... But I had one the cycle before my last pregnancy too ... Apparently it makes you more fertile the next month ... 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Oooh really? I hope so ! X 🤞🏻

SaharaRoxy · 05/01/2020 20:29

Welcome new joiners!!

I'm yet to get a positive on an OPK but I'm not nervous just yet this cycle from an ovulation perspective!

There's a few of us now so odds on a few BFP's to be announced soon!

I'm absolutely not pregnant yet and yet eating for two. Whoops there's just still so much Christmas food leftover

Elly88 · 05/01/2020 20:56

Anyone know if you are pregnant following ovulation, will you keep getting positive ovulation tests? Or will they turn negative either way? Or stay positive either way?! I never got my static smiley and ran out of OPK sticks. Interested to maybe get some more and see what they say now. Pretty sure I ovulated due to CM and flashing smileys.

sojo44 · 06/01/2020 08:45

@Elly88 I keep thinking it must be far too early for symptoms and maybe the boob heaviness is just where my extra Christmas lbs located themselves 😂🤓. 5-6DPO now and it feels like the days are dragging. Aaaah my routine of work and commuting has started today (TTC1) so hopefully it'll keep my mind a little busy as well. Hahaha I bet the tests are calling your name every morning! 🙈🙈 I have no idea how I'll stop my POAS so I got some ICs to keep me going haha! Will then get a FRER if they show any signs of a potential line.

How's everyone's Monday going? When is everyone testing?

Elly88 · 06/01/2020 09:07

@sojo44 hope work takes your mind off it! I think I'm 5dpo now tho app only says 3 so I'm also probs too early for symptoms to be of any relevance! Tho I keep feeling nauseous when I wake in the morning and having headaches and still period bloaty pain on and off.Trying to hold off at least until 13th to test (due on 17th) will be 10dpo according to app but 12dpo according to ewcm. What about you?

lovegalore · 06/01/2020 11:52

Hey... can I join? CD26, 11DPO, AF due 9th Jan. took two tests on Saturday both BFN's.

Definitely tested too earlier now eagerly awaiting Thursday to roll round and pray AF doesn't show up.

Had a few symptoms like heart burn and a few cramps but not sure if I'm imagining it Confused

Swife · 06/01/2020 17:28

Can I join you guys? Not even really sure if I'm in a tww😤.

No true confirmed ovulation. Also, I might mention I've had, since age 22, 2 ectopics on each side resulting in a tube removal, and 2 MC.

I have pics but the site won't let me post them😕. Nov. cycle was 20 days and I bled 3 days from Dec. 14-16, then spotted(no clots) on CD18-19. My cycles are normally from 28-29 days. Going by that I should be starting maybe the 9-11 of this month. Yesterday and the day before I had, what I thought was period pain, but no cycle. All my cheapies keep saying BFN and we've been BD, consistently, since cd8 when I got my first LH peak. Got a higher peak two days ago. I'm not sure if I'm out this month or not 😔.

tubbyswife · 06/01/2020 19:57

@lovegalore ah my AF is due on the 9th also, but I am at cd30 10dpo.

I am desperately trying not to symptom spot but I have cramps, my back is killing me and I have a metallic taste in my mouth. But I have just noticed a little pink when I went to the loo. I really hope its implantation spotting but i suspect that it isnt as i did test today and it was a bfn Sad
I'm driving myself crazy!

lovegalore · 06/01/2020 20:33

@tubbyswife it's so hard not to overthink it. I've got cramps right now and they feel like AF's on the way but hopefully we both get a happy ending. Good luck SmileSmile

Elly88 · 07/01/2020 10:11

I'm now 4-6dpo and lower back still hurting like period pain with odd cramps. Already feeling the itching urge to poas which is ridiculous as just a waste of money. Why do we do this to ourselves 🙈 I also now have a 2ww to get a mole checked out so desperately trying to keep myself busy during this even now harder/longer wait! Praying my appt comes thru before I'm on so any bfp results aren't dampened.

Daisydays1 · 07/01/2020 12:35

@tubbyswife dont give up until your at arrives 😁

I am 9dpo(according to my app) today had painful boobs for a good few days now and been feeling dizzy at times(duno if I am imagining it ) and mild cramps

On 7dpo just before going to bed had two little pink dots of blood

8pdo brown watery discharge only when wiping and a little on pad and developed a bad headache

9dpo still have the very watery brown discharge only when wiping and a little on pad, I did a test but of course it was negative 🙄

Ttc3 never had this before due at on Sunday (cd28)

@Elly88 it so hard trying to keep yourself busy and not over think what's going on and symptom spot isn't it

@Swife sounds like you have had alot going on and sorry to hear about your ectopics , fingers crossed you find where you stand soon, so frustrating x

@lovegalore fingers crossed for you and all the over ladies that we get bfp this month

SaharaRoxy · 07/01/2020 16:38

Aaarrrghhh I've got the actual full blown flu. No energy to even check OPK let alone TTC. Think I'm out this month unless I feel much better in 24/48 hours

OP posts:
Swife · 07/01/2020 18:26

@Daisydays1, thnx. It's been hard, but this darn tww is harder😁. Fingers crossed 🤞🏽 we all have our bumps 🥰

Ktn35 · 07/01/2020 19:46

Help me ladies! I had EWCM on the 4th and 5th and then right side cramps on the 5th and then period pain type cramps on the 6th and today no cramps and watery slimy CM (not stretchy like egg whites but still has some slime to it 😂) when do you think I might have ovulated? We had sex every other day leading up to the 3rd then 4th and 5th but not yesterday ... Did we miss the best day? Should we bother tonight? I'm knackered but will force myself if people think it's worth it! 😩😂

Ktn35 · 07/01/2020 19:47

Who else is due around the 21st? I've forgotten! 😩

tubbyswife · 07/01/2020 22:05

I'm out for this month ladies, AF arrived at work this afternoon. I have ordered myself an ovusense today though to try and more accurately track ovulation and my fertile window.
Good luck to all of the ladies still in the 2ww for their bfp x
