Two week wait - feel free to join!

[KSI88]

Hi all,

Now in my TWW. We have been trying for DC #2 since October 19 and I had a chemical early March.

I usually use Clearblue Dig Ovulation tests but this month I just used cheapie OPK's.

Fingers and toes crossed 🤞🏻

Would love you hear all of your TTC stories.

Ladies I could see a faint line on a FRER so I have taken it apart. What do you think? Indent or the start of something? It's hard to tell if there's colour to it.

I see something faint..

@incywincyspiders Me too I'm just not sure if it's an indent it's hard to tell if it's pink or not

Congrats @lk123! Lovely to see another BFP!

@KSI88 I can see the same as Incy - absolutely everything crossed for you!

I paid for a progesterone test and sent that off yesterday (7dpo). Really nervous to get the results.

I'm also a bit emotional today. Can't tell if it's Covid related or hormone related but either way feel bleurgh.

I'm feeling fairly okay emotionally, just really bloated and I've had cramps on one side (left) since ovulation. I usually get a break before they come back with AF but I guess not this time.

Above all, I'm just trying to stay positive and enjoy the little things that make me happy. My FRER just arrived so I'm ready to test at 10DPO (in a couple of days) so that's something to look forward to 😊

I've got quite bad cramps today so I think AF is on her way 😢

Congratulations @lk123 amazing news!

14dpo and a BFN in the IC this morning. I think I'm out again. No AF yet but that isn't uncommon. I haven't had one since January but I'm still ovulating on time like a normal cycle. I was meant to go to the doctors about it but that isn't happening anymore 😂

Hi ladies, wading in here hope that's ok!!! I could really do with some advice and some opinion (other than my doctor!) 👩‍⚕️- currently five days late and experiencing some of the symptoms like sore heavy veiny boobs, nausea and indigestion. My progesterone levels have been coming in a little low, this month day 21 was taken a little late and it was 25.5. I took a test when I was a day late and am sure I saw a faint line but then took another a day later and the digital was definitive negative, the cheap strips since then have been negative - am driving myself crazy worrying as it's obviously quite an anxious time for us all anyway (cheers covid!) but maybe there's a chance that I've just skipped a period due to stress? Any opinions welcome!!! Anyone else experiencing late or missing periods due to stress or anxiety atm? 🌈💙Xxx

@Luan82 I suffer from anxiety and always find when I’m stressed the most, my periods are always late. I can fluctuate anything between 27 days and 36. It’s crazy how it can affect it.

@xyloto actually quite relieved to hear that, I've never suffered from late periods even OV can be timed to the same afternoon every cycle so this has knocked me for six!! Doc said that it's likely stress and anxiety maybe more anxious than I realise !! If it's not too nosey can I ask how it affected your cycle the following month, I'm supposed to go for another 21 day bloods and if my cycle had been regular would be around the 12th May however now not sure if I'll now ovulate on the same day?

Morning ladies, how are you all this morning? So my temp chart has changed this morning and is now saying I ovulated late day 26. I got a BFN on a pregnancy test yesterday as I thought I was 14 DPO and then this morning my chart changed so confusing.

@Luan82 around 29 days 🙂 I don’t think you realise how much stress/anxiety can affect it but it really does. I find switching off and not listening to the news is currently helping. I’ve also taken up learning how to crochet just to try and distract my mind from everything going on. Try and find something to relax you and AF will come.

Can I ask how you test your progesterone levels? I’m not sure if I’m a little low this month as it’s only been 10 DPO and I’m showing sign of AF coming rather than pregnancy 😕😟 but I’ve never really looked it until now. Thank you 🙂

@Suki2020 morning!! I have to say BBT is the one factor I'm rubbish at testing always forget to do it when I wake !!

@xyloto the doctor suggested bloods due to my age and getting past the six month mark of ttc after coming off the pill. I had day 1-5 bloods done which were normal and my first day 21 bloods came in low at 21 then the second round showed improvement at 25.5. I would ask the doctor but I think it depends how long you've been ttc - I've already been referred to a specialist but OH has to submit a sample too first which is a little tricky atm all things considered !!

I’m 8DPO and feeling frustrated. I keep hoping to spot a symptom but there’s absolutely nothing. Had a random cry yesterday. I know it’s still so early but I just feel like I’ve convinced myself it’s not going to happen this month

Hi looking some advice. AF due on Friday and I never really get cramps but have been getting what I think are cramps today. But uterus feels very heavy and pains in my leg and back. Don't know if this could be pregnancy signs too. Also by BBT has stayed elevated.

@Fueledwithfairydustandgin I've been feeling like this too. This TWW is horrible. I'd normally be out and about, working etc etc but it's so hard to keep busy during this lockdown. Chin up lovely, you're not out until AF shows 🤞

@Hopefulmummie Your symptoms definitely sound promising. Here's hoping!

@incywincyspiders How are you doing today? I done another FRER this morning and absolutely nothing. Looks like yesterday's was an indent. It's a bit cruel!

@KSI88 I'm so crampy today I'm 99% sure my period is on its way. I did take another test this morning, I did think I could see a faint line but could be me just seeing things. I bought some early detect clear blue (I know they are not liked here 😬) think I will take one tomorrow if AF hasn't arrived. It's so disheartening getting no line after a maybe isn't it :( how are you feeling lovely?

@Hopefulmummie sounds promising lovely! Got my fingers crossed for you.

Thank you. I'm just worrying that it is just period symptoms:(

@Hopefulmummie as the cramps are unusual for you, that's what I think is the good sign :)

Hi ladies,
So I caved this morning and took two tests (I wasn’t sure I immersed the first enough lol) Can’t believe there’s a couple of vfl already, just hoping the lines grow darker! 🤞🏼

Hi all, hope you don’t mind me joining. I am in the dreaded 2 weeks wait. My boobs are tingly and I’m very moody but not trying to read into it too much. This would be my rainbow baby. Xxx

Afternoon...
Only 7dpo but caved and poas this morning before work (they arrived in post yesterday.) of course a bfn... Probably too early tho!

Still feeling dizzy, heady, not right.
Who knows!

Sorry to everyone having a rough time! Lockdown and the stress of what is going on around us makes this even harder!

I think AF is on the way for me! It's such a rollercoaster each month
