Anyone else in their 2ww?

[alixxx1]

Hi all,

Is there any others currently in their 2ww?

OH works away so we could only DTD 2-3 days before O. So I don't know whether I'm that hopeful. Plus it's our first month trying for #2.

So is there anyone else currently waiting and we can support each other through the wait? I'll be 10dpo on the 22nd which would be amazing if I get a positive as it will be a year on from a loss.

Babydust to all x

I think my cycle is all over the place. Used a cheapy opk today as my smileys are all over the place. Does this look like I'm having another LH surge?

Jumping in with this TWW malarkey if that's ok 😁
Currently 5DPO and AF due 28/1.
Binge watched TWW and DPO videos on YouTube and keep thinking every twitch and headache is a sign 🙈
Currently using Flo and Glow to track but anyone else noticed they give slightly different ovulation/cycle prediction. Just what I need to make this TTC even more tricky 🙈

@Violet1988 it’s incredibly hard. We have been trying for an out 8 months but this is only cycle 6 (I had a weird long period ? Early miscarriage which basically ruined my cycles for a little bit) and I’m beginning to feel quite desperate. I think I would err on the side of getting the vaccine, if it becomes recommended, as you say on a risk benefit it may be worth it... may need to see how things are at the time and if it happens. I’m currently in GP which is pretty safe but do out of hours in covid. I think in pregnancy they would likely not redeploy you... though it likely depends on your trust. RCOG recommend avoiding contact when possible... so it seems unreasonable to put you there unless they really need to

@scandiontheloose welcome! We're similar cycles! I use Flo too but find OPKS alongside that help so much better! Have you tried any OPKS? how long have you been trying? X

[alixxx1]

@Fifi1086 I don't think that's a positive OPK hun. What does anyone else think? What's happening with the smileys? X

[scandiontheloose]

@alixxx1
Haven't tried them yet, might give them a go if this cycle AF appears. Do you find that adding those results to Flo make the predictions more accurate? I like the app tho, I like the cycle tracking and things I just wonder how accurate it is when I comes to the crucial dates around ovulation etc. I do track my CM regularly as I find that by now I am quite in tune with my body so can tell by the CM change when my peak date is.
We haven't been trying for that long yet. Only our 3rd cycle but already gone into the TTC rabbit hole in my Google searches 😅

My boobs feel like rocks today. Just moving my arms hurts them. I woke up this morning and they felt soooo heavy. I do get sore boobs when AF is due but I'm 6dpo so hoping it's because I'm pregnant! It was the first sign with my last pregnancy. What does anyone else think?? X

[alixxx1]

@scandiontheloose I like the Flo app too! It at least gives a good idea so we can look for o symptoms! However my Flo app was off by 3 days for o this month. ☹️ Oh I'm right there with you on that one, forever googling everything pregnancy wise 😂 x

[WaitingForEgg]

@Fifi1086 i think positive for Ov the test needs to be darker than control

@alixxx1 last time boobs where one of my first things, weird tummy feeling and really sore/heavy boobs. But i didnt get it until AF due/just after I think.... I’ve been scrutinising my calendar and trying to work out when in my cycle it was... I’m pretty sure i was late when I tested. I was on holiday in Australia and paying 0 attention to anything.... how amazing that would be right now!

@alixxx1

Awh I hope your signs are for the baby. It's defo one of the most common symptoms to have and you would know when they feel different to AF sore if that makes sense. I haven't got sore boobs as such, they just feel a wee bit heavier but not sore.

[Fifi1086]

@alixxx1 I've had 3 peaks in two weeks on the cb advanced opks so I'm fed up with them and moved to the cheapys

@WaitingForEgg yeah I think so, I did another test a bit later and it was as dark as the control line, and just did another now and the the test line is barely there now. I think I must have a really short LH surge. I've been very crampy all month so did think I ovulated the other two times but clearly didn't. Today though I got a sharp pain in my left side so I'm hoping I actually did this time 🙈

[Fifi1086]

The one after is on top which I'm fairly sure is positive, and the most recent one below

[WaitingForEgg]

@Fifi1086 top one def convincing

[NW2021]

@alixxx1 that is such a good sign!! Got everything crossed for you!

@Fifi1086 that top one looks like a positive to me!

[alixxx1]

@Fifi1086 I agree with @WaitingForEgg xx

[WaitingForEgg]

@alixxx1 I feel utterly crap today. Hoping it’s pregnancy 🙈🙈🙈 really tired, but boobs not that sore yet... 🤔

[alixxx1]

@WaitingForEgg aww bless you! It's a good job we have these forums to get us through the 2 weeks isn't it 🙊😂 I keep eating foods with onion in and getting heartburn and convincing myself I'm pregnant but then I remember it's too early and I'm eating food that gives me bloody heartburn 🤣 why do PMS and pregnancy symptoms have to be so similar though? 😩 x

[Fifi1086]

Thanks guys. I think i actually ovulated this time thankfully. Feeling a bit pissed off as this is my 3rd time starting the tww this month 😂

@WaitingForEgg I so hope it's pregnancy for you. My last pregnancy was unplanned and 12 years ago! But I remember the first symptom was hitting a wall of tiredness and then sore boobs!

It's made my day coming home from teaching and seeing all these messages from ladies in the same boat as me also going a little crackers waiting either to pee on something or have their AF visit!!! Welcome to the new faces 🙋🏻‍♀️

[Fifi1086]

I tried to explain the opk test to my DP today and he said "look, unless you wanna dtd just come back to me when you're pregnant" 😂😂😂

[1littlewren]

@Fifi1086 hahah I love men's reactions to baby making and all the technicalities. My OH gets home now and groans as he walks through the door just so I know he's tired and doesn't want to dtd again 🤣🤣

[2manytattoos]

Got my BFP earlier today

[DizSquiz]

@2manytattoos

[alixxx1]

@1littlewren aww that's lovely!

@Fifi1086 that's sooo funny 😂

@2manytattoos omg that's so exciting! How long had you been trying for again?

Xx

[DizSquiz]

I'm after some advice

Some things I've experienced today and I'm unsure if Any of these are signs / symptoms

Tight chest
Heartburn
Backache
Dizziness/lightheaded

Bearing in mind I'm only (potentially) 3dpo... but I'm not 100% when O is as my tests haven't arrived yet
