2 week wait

[Lily2020]

Hi 👋🏼 currently 4dpo, getting a bit lost on other threads so though would start a new one 😊
Feel free to join - AF due 9th May (will likely test way before that for no reason whatsoever!)

@emvy you have some willpower!! I'm terrible, really am my own worst enemy!! Counting down the days to Sunday!

@Lily2020
Thanks Hun. How do I do it please?

@Jenz1988 when you write a post there should be a paper clip to attach pictures at the bottom? If you've just joined you'll have to wait 48hours I think. Got my fingers crossed for your miracle baby🤞🏽🤞🏽 🤞🏽

Hello! Can I join too, I'm currently around 3 dpo. Partner and I have been actively trying since December, but I came off the pill around 18 months ago and nothing yet! Hopefully this month

Brilliant thank you @Lily2020
Yes will have to wait then. I guess I'll have an answer either way in two days 🤞

Hi everyone! I’m joining as well. I’m 12 DPO in our first cycle trying since a MMC in Feb. negative tests so far but crossing my fingers for a BFP soon. Period due Thursday!

@RiverRoo ooh exciting fingers crossed for you 🤞🏽 keep us posted!

@Lb603 hi 👋🏼 I'm the same not been preventing for 18 months but nothing as of yet! Cycle 4 of TTC - keep positive, It will happen 😊

Hello, I have been lurking for around 2 weeks now and wondered if anyone had any advice. Came off cerelle in late Jan, had 29 day cycle and had withdrawal bleed. 29 days later again and had normal 5 day period. 2 weeks later had slightly heavy spotting for 3 days. Like on the fence with was it spotting or just a really really light period. At the end of those 3 days had EWCM. DTD every day for a week. Period was due anywhere between Fri 24th and yesterday and still hasn't arrived. Have been doing those one step strips and they have all been negative. Also did a CB on saturday which was negative. Temp has been rising for since 21st from 36.14 to 36.73 today. Had no CM until 23rd and it since then it has been creamy every day since. Slightly sore nipples and some tummy ache. Any ideas?

Aww @Jenz1988 sending lots of luck and warm wishes your way for your miracle 🥰

Hello to @RiverRoo and @Lb603 too 🥰 how are you guys keeping sane during the lockdown/tww? 😊

Hi everyone! Sending positive thoughts and baby dust to all for some bfps this month!

@Imgp, it sounds hopeful with the missed period and cm, hard to tell for sure with having come off the pill recently. My cycles were all over the place for so so long. Maybe just keep testing every few days or however long you can wait? You might not have ovulated for definite then or have a long luteal phase maybe.

@emiliet123 Coping well. Running around after a 2 year old is enough to keep my mind active and away from the drawer with the pregnancy tests. I’m fairly relaxed as I haven’t been TTC for too long. I imagine it gets harder and harder the more drawn out the process. Looking forward to Thursday though (when AF is due) but nervous that AF won’t show and I will still get a BFN. That feels cruel as it’s just a perpetual state of limbo! Thanks for asking xx

Hi, I’m joining too if that’s ok? Had a miscarriage at 5 weeks in feb so my cycles not as regular as normal, but I should be due next week and I’ve had sore boobs/nipples for the last 6 days which I’m hoping is a good sign!

@emiliet123
Thank you!
@MrsLBear
Mines always around 28-29 day cycles, I'm averaging that AF will be around the 8th-10th of may but if it doesn't start straight away won't be rushing to poas because it could well just be late due to the mc

@emvy before there only symptom I had was extremely vivid dreams and a severe lack of symptoms that I'd normally second guess but like they say everyone is different (pregnancy I mean). I got sore boobs but only around 6 weeks and my god did they hurt.

Hi @Jenz1988 sorry your treatment got cancelled. Covid is ruining so much and so many lives.
Yes definitely upload your photo! Fx for you!

Hello to all the new ladies!!! Let's hope we see some BFP in this thread 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

I think I'm out already. My Daysy from temp tracking said I ovulated, my CM changed, it was all looking good, and the last two days my temp has been way down so looks like another anovulatory cycle.

Has anyone tried ovusense for temping? I've liked using Daysy but I keep getting unreliable readings (it told me I'd ovulated despite my temps not changing and the GP blood test showed I hadn't). They've got 25% off at the moment so wondering if it's a worthwhile investment.

Hello all - I’m currently 5 DPO. We’re weren’t actually TTC, but I’m in the TWW. We’ve got 2 lovely DC and I had a MMC, as well as PND after my littlest was born.

We got carried away last week and didn’t use any contraception. I automatically freaked out and took the MAP same day, as I’ve felt too tired and worried about PND again to think about another baby... but now I keep thinking that actually I wish I hadn’t taken the MAP (I’ve recently turned 40, so realistically it’s now or never).

So I’ve gone from the ridiculous situation of thinking how to prevent pregnancy to now hoping I am!! So I’ll be testing Sunday if I can wait that long!!

Which tests is everyone else planning to use? I’ve just bought Asda own brand, which I’ve now read are unreliable. Maybe I’ll see what the result is and then buy a branded one

@RiverRoo, I’m with you on that! Running around after a 2yo and working from home is keeping me away from the tests! Busy is best! Best of luck for Thursday.

Welcome @alwaysadreamer, hope this is the month for you! When TTC DS, I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks and went on to conceive DS the following month without a period inbetween. I hope this happens for you too!!

@Sho2207 best of luck to you too!

@MrsLBear it’s typical how you had less symptoms with pregnancy than af! I’ve actually had a high temp for 24 hours now. It was 37.7 an hour ago but after paracetamol it’s come down to 37.2 so still pretty high but within normal. I’m feeling really torn whether it’s just slightly high from pregnancy or there’s more to it... but worried tbh. I’m going to test in the morning as I’m worrying about the high temp! Not sure what testing will do but going to do it anyway 😬

@PlanBea I don’t think your temp going down is necessarily a definite out? I’m sure someone who has more experience of temping will know more though.

Welcome @Helena79, wow that’s a turnaround! I hope you’ve been lucky and caught! Are you going to continue TTC after this if you missed it? Best of luck!

@emvy my temp is lower than previous temps this cycle so it looks like my high was just from sleeping in late. If it was just below cover line I'd be more optimistic. I'm hoping I'm being pessimistic but it seems unlikely

Thanks @emvy

I’m not sure if we’ll TTC if this month isn’t a BFP. We’ve never talked about having 3 DC. I keep thinking about the chaos when I watched “Outnumbered” 😂

Well done for breastfeeding your LO for so long. I did 15 months each with my 2 DC and it was only when they started nipping with tiny teeth that I stopped haha

@Helena79 wow what a month it's turned out to be 😊 I hope you get your bfp!

@planbea have you got a pictured your chart? I'm no expert either but I'm on fertility friend & you can look through other people's charts to compare - very addictive!

@emvy @MrsLBear i was exactly the same absolutely Zero pregnancy symptoms till 7weeks with my daughter! I also went out on a day session the day before i got my bfp 🙈

Thanks @emvy I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Stories like yours give me hope it’s possible!

@emvy what was your temp this morning? I don't think they are reliable during the day cos of movement etc. Don't think I've asked this - just scrolled back to check. How many DPO are you? Sorry if I have.
Were you tracking ovulation after your miscarriage? I was really torn after mine whether to pause or not and I can't even remember what we did now (was 14 months ago) but I've heard you're supposed to be more fertile after. How long were you TTC before you miscarriage?

I'm now having a mental battle with myself whether to get some tests in for the weekend.

@PlanBea I considered ovusense but feel like cos I find temping pretty accurate it's a lot of money to spend. Have you tried inputting your temp into another app. I use fertility friend and have find it very accurate. I've not heard of daysy. Is it an app? With a thermometer?

@MrsLBear it's a thermometer which does have an app too. It calculates everything for you, which I liked when starting with temping. I tried fertility friend for a bit but didn't really like it. Might need to try it again!

Hey, 4dpo and due AF on 8th 🤞🏼

@Lily2020 am I right in thinking you posted saying FR was positive 11dpo? But then not? In 2 minds to get them
