2DPO - Anyone with me....!

[xem87]

Hi all!

Is anyone just starting their 2WW!? 💕 xxx

[GreenApplesYo]

Aww @Twinkle1989 really sorry. Do you think you will test again or just wait to see if AF arrives now? I know TTC makes the days go soooo slow, but if you don't get a BFP this time, perhaps you will be looking at one around this time next month 🙂🙂

I'm still 5dpo so won't be testing for a little while. Would like to wait until AF is due but let's see, not sure I have the will power hahah

[EllyNC291]

@Twinkle1989 sorry ☹️ Maybe too early? When’s AF due?
I’m either 6 or 7 dpo I think and also Gonna try and hold out till AF! Will probably cave and test at the end of the week 😂

[Twinkle1989]

@EllyNC291 @GreenApplesYo
AF is due on Saturday / Sunday 😭 I expect it'll be Friday though cos I'm often the day before.
I'm praying I'm being dramatic, that it's too early and I'm being silly. I didn't realise how badly it would effect me 😭 OH is so chilled out and told me that I can't just click my fingers and order a baby like off Amazon 😂👀
How are you all doing? xx

[unCliche]

@GreenApplesYo if you start testing at 7 DPO, maybe I'll join you, hehe!

The spotting is definitely a good thing @Twinkle1989! Could be IB like Elly mentioned! If it is then it'll take some time for the hcg to build up so try again in two days time

I had a dream that I had a baby boy and wasn't looking after him very well!

[GreenApplesYo]

@unCliche must... resist... urinating... on stick. Haha actually I don't have any in the house. If I don't buy one, I can't wee on one. Have you got any in stock?

I have baby dreams quite often. Usually there is something amiss. Like the baby turns out to be a miniature grown man haha, that was an odd one.

[unCliche]

@GreenApplesYo Yup, all stocked up! I have a few ICs and two FRERs but I'll probably start with the ICs. And worst comes to worst there's always Amazon Prime

Haha! That's brilliant! What was the fate of your adult baby?

[GreenApplesYo]

@unCliche I think I left him on the train...

[GreenApplesYo]

Hey! How's everyone doing today? 🙂

Not much to report here at 6dpo except I wish that the days would go a bit faster! Think I have decided to test on Sunday which would be 12dpo. But I might chicken out lol and wait for AF. Half of me wants to know, the other half doesn't want to see a BFN 🙈

[EllyNC291]

@GreenApplesYo soooo slow right!! 2WW just drags haha! I think I’m gonna test in a day or 2 with a cheapy because I can’t resist. got a Frer but might wait for that!! Any symptoms? X

[GreenApplesYo]

@EllyNC291 hmm no symptoms unfortunately! Still early days though. Trying not to symptom spot too much - but yeh, literally nothing to report atm. What about you, have you noticed anything?

[EllyNC291]

@GreenApplesYo I’m sure I’m imagining all sorts of symptoms 😂😂 even though I’m only like 7/8dpo! Haha

[unCliche]

I've decided to test next Monday as that will be when AF is due if I consider the longest length my cycles can be (26 days). So 13 DPO.

Same here with no symptoms, although this morning I woke up with cramps thinking something must be going on but then I remembered I ate spicy food last night, so the only thing going on is an upset stomach. Also have very slight sore boobs but that doesn't count.

@EllyNC291 What are your symptoms?

[coffeewithmilk]

I'm 11 dpo today and tested and it was a bfn!
Have been having increased appetite and tiredness, also a few twinges here and there so quite disappointed that there wasn't even a trace of a line!

[GreenApplesYo]

Aw I'm sorry @coffeewithmilk that's disheartening. Not too late yet though! Will you test again tomorrow?

@unCliche hahah I had something similar earlier. Thought I had a twinge. Nope, just gas. Oh dear. Hope your stomach isn't too bad?

[unCliche]

Ugh that sucks @coffeewithmilk. Tomorrow is a new day, so I have my fingers crossed for you! Let's hope you get your bfp soon!

@GreenApplesYo story of my life I've been quite gassy too but I'm assuming it's all the rubbish I've been eating. Yeah, I felt better shortly after I woke up, thanks!

Possible implantation days are getting closer for us! Will you be paying extra attention to see if you can feel it?? I'm currently temping so will be keeping a close eye on my temps.

[GreenApplesYo]

@unCliche hehe yes, I've already been googling 'implantation dip' and I haven't even had one. Will try not to worry if I don't notice anything. I think lots of people don't have a dip/cramps etc anyway? Would be exciting though if I did notice something!

[unCliche]

@GreenApplesYo Hahaha! Oh man, 7 DPO - 14 DPO is going to be crazy. This is when all the action starts happening. I will try to manage my expectations but don't judge me if I POAS tomorrow!

I've only been temping for a month and a bit so don't have enough data but do your temps follow the same pattern each month? Trying to compare mine to the little data I have from last month and very little similarities.

[coffeewithmilk]

@GreenApplesYo I'll probably just wait until AF comes! I don't want to be disappointed again!
@unCliche new day, more symptom spotting! 😂
I'll hold off until AF and if it doesn't come then I'll get more tests!

[GreenApplesYo]

@unCliche it's my first month, just been temping this cycle. Remind me (sorry!) did you come off the pill recently? 🙂I came off at the start of Oct. I did wonder if temps can be funny the first month off the pill? But going forward you'd think temps ought to be fairly similar month on month? I haven't looked into it though! Good question 🤔🙂 will be interesting to see if my chart is different next month.

Did you get a really sharp temp rise 1dpo? Mine was slight at 1dpo and then more pronounced on 2dpo. So I was a bit sad on 1dpo and really happy on 2dpo. Bloody TTC roller-coaster!

Hahaha also no judgement here if you do poas!

[unCliche]

@coffeewithmilk at least you haven't got too long to wait now. And who knows, maybe you implanted today so may not get a positive for a few days yet.

@GreenApplesYo no, I haven't been on any contraceptives (like ever, not even condoms. Naughty me) but I bought an Ava fertility bracelet last month to track all that fertility stuff so I'm assuming my recorded temps are pretty accurate.

The graph with the huge dip was last months cycle. I think I actually O'd on CD 11 because my cycle was only 23 days. This month I definitely O'd on CD 14 because I started using OPKs and checking CM. but I didn't get any sharp temp rises this month. They've been pretty tame. Then I got something called a fallback rise at 2 DPO (I think?) and now it's starting to steadily rise and that's nothing like what happened last month

But let's hope next month you don't have a chart to compare to because you'll have gotten your BFP!

[GreenApplesYo]

Oh wow @unCliche they are really different aren't they? I'd agree it looks like ov was on CD11 on your first chart. Your first month was so spikey! I've heard of a fallback rise. I think it's normal? This is mine - I'd say I had a gradual rise.

Do you like the ava bracelet? I was considering one but thought I might wait a while to see how things go.

Good to have not messed with your hormones by the way. I guess being naughty can pay off 🙂

[unCliche]

Yours looks like what I'd expect a bbt chart to look like. It's clearly biphasic and there's definitely a separation between pre-O and post-O temps. This website on Fertiliry Friend shows the different types of rises you can get. Yours looks like a bit of a slow rise but can definitely tell there was a temp shift.

Yeah, I don't get why it was so spiky. Maybe because it was my Ava's first month getting to know me so temps were all over the place.

The Ava bracelet is ok. I got it half price because I bought it second hand so it doesn't feel like a waste of money (yet). Makes tracking temps easier. Only thing I don't like is that if it predicts your O day wrong, it won't change it for that cycle. It'll only predict better for the next. So I use fertility friend to double check. But it's been really interesting to see how my resting heart rate follows the ups and downs of my body temp.

[Twinkle1989]

How is everyone doing?
I think AF may be approaching earlier than usual 😭 whilst I feel sad, I have period pain and I don't think it's implantation pain, I'm kind of wanting it out of the day so we can get back on track for trying!
I have just bought a Fertilily - have you ladies tried them yet?
Hope you're all well xx

[AKC88]

Hi everyone,

Hope you don't mind if I join.

2nd cycle TTC #3, currently 3DPO and already obsessing over everything...need to step away from Google . AF is due 5th Nov, aiming to not test before that but I'm pretty sure I'm lying to myself haha!

[Izzie94]

@Twinkle1989 hi lovely! 11dpo here. Feel exactly the same as I usually do before AF, boobs starting to hurt slightly (they’ve started to hurt later and later in my TWW recently!) and I get excited they don’t hurt thinking is no symptom a symptom 🤣 but AF seems to be approaching for me. And I’ll be going into cycle 11.

Whens AF due for you?

Ooo what’s that?! I’ve not heard of it before! Xx

@AKC88 welcome! hahaha my google searches during the TWW are crazy 😂 I try tell myself I won’t every month. But every month I’m clutching at straws 😅 x
