Anyone else currently on the two week wait ?

[FinnsMammy]

This is my first two week wait and it’s driving me bonkers. I’m currently trying for baby#2 and I’m 7 DPO. I’m going to test with a First response in about 3 days but the days are going soooo long. With my last baby I wasn’t tracking it was our first try but I had just come off the pill and hadn’t even got a period yet so wasn’t expecting much but I knew I was pregnant when (I estimate it was about 7DPO )I got a lot of CM and food aversions I just knew then and about 4 days later I got my BFP.... this month I have symptoms but similar to PMS. Anyone else currently in limbo ? 🙈🤞🏻

@FinnsMammy ah really. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 I don't usually notice I get that so 😬

I love the idea of a lucky thread!!

It’s so reassuring to know that I’m not the only one who finds it totally consumes everything else! Though I’ve been better so far this month - last month was terrible and I drove myself crazy! I like the idea suggested above of testing from 9 dpo as it makes you somehow more prepared for AF if she arrives! I think I will probably start testing Wednesday.

In the absence of any actual symptoms (other than sore boobs, which I always get in the second half of my cycle) I am keeping a beady eye on my rhr in the hope that it will somehow reveal something to me!

It’s 7:30 here and I’m going to bed I was so tired this morning that I slept till 10am ( this is late when you have a 1 year old lol) and now I’m going to bed at 7:30 pm because I cannot keep my eyes open! This is very unlike me so I’m curious if this is a symptom! Baby dust to all. Night girls x

Aw @Soexciting I love your outlook! Let’s hope we’re lucky.

@FinnsMammy we’re in sync as I’m due on next Sunday too. Hope your tiredness is a symptom! Seems very extreme to be that tired so 🤞🤞🤞

I ovulated late this month which is fine as I’m happy I ovulated at all but just means a longer wait in an already long month 😂

I went for a jog with my husband before and he was telling me to try and be pragmatic and compartmentalise etc etc - he just has noooo idea hahaha!!! Smile and nod 😂

Has anyone else felt they actually have less symptoms than in other months? I have sore boobs but usually have cramping by this point in my cycle and nada! I’m hoping sooo much this is because AF isn’t going to arrive!!

Good luck everyone, sending positive vibes your way 💖

@FinnsMammy

Hi, I am 11/12 dpo today. This is my 12th month ttc #1. But my first month trying after a miscarriage, I haven’t yet had a period since miscarrying but I know I did ovulate as normal.

My apps are telling me my period should be today, tomorrow or Tuesday. I have a strong feeling I’ll be out this morning and there won’t be any bfp for me.

But I wish you all lots of luck!

this month* not this morning

@TTC94 good luck, hope it’s your month. So sorry to hear about your MC ❤️

Hi girls! Cycle #13 and 11DPO. Let's just say that I'm done symptom spotting. All I do is just hope. We've done some checks and there doesn't seem anything wrong so it's just a waiting game. Can't wait to see that BFP. No way I'm testing before I'm late.. every time it breaks our heart. Fingers crossed we all see those two lines soon xx

@MrsGee20 thank you! Fingers crossed for you too xxx

@ottie27 I don't remember my symptoms when I conceived DD but I am on a thread and one of my posts says that I don't have any symptoms apart from my boobs are much less sore than usual (and a dodgy belly). I got my BFP a few days later.
@TTC94 good luck for the next few days. So sorry to hear about your MC.

I was feeling so positive then my Ava finished updating. Resting heart rate and temperature down... That's a shame, too late for implantation dip will just have to keep an eye on it. Realistically I have no business being pregnant when I am waiting for an operation so either way it's win-win or lose-lose for me.

TMI warning! So its day 21 and I have woken up to watery brown blood - very light and only really when I wipe but a few days earlier than I usually get it! So frustrated! Part of me wants to think it’s implantation but the logical part of me knows it’s probably just the start of AF, just a few days early as an extra special treat for me this month! Guess it’s probably not going to be my month this month! 😢

Hello, joining on here. My period is one day late so I’m trying to hold out just a few more days to test.

It’s so hard to tell if the symptoms are pregnancy or PMS. I’m so hopeful every month and then terrible let down when my period arrives like clockwork.

The last time I got pregnant, three years ago, I really didn’t have any symptoms early on.

Best of luck to all of you.

Hi everyone!

This is my first cycle ttc #1, and my first ever tww! We weren’t planning on starting trying until the end of the year, but then we had an unplanned pregnancy that turned out to be a chemical pregnancy and decided to start trying now. I only had one day of knowing I was pregnant, but it was one of the best days we’ve had, and I hope I can find that again ❤️

How is everyone doing with their waiting? I’m literally 1DPO and I feel like a nutcase! 😅

Baby dust to all of you, I really hope this is a lucky thread ☘️

@Soexciting my rhr has dropped as well this morning. Really hoping it’s implantation rather than a sign that AF is on her way! Temp is still high though, which is weird, as I thought they were sort of related? How many dpo are you? I’ve heard some women can implant quite late so fingers crossed it’s implantation for both of us!

Other more positive signs include a small amount of milky cm last night (obviously I googled when I saw it and apparently this might be a sign?) and one of my boobs being so sore I found it hard to sleep on my front last night. They might be slightly veiny too, but equally this could be my imagination!

@TTC94 sorry to hear about your MC. @Amyc94 and @Soexciting and everyone it ain’t over till AF shows up so don’t give up hope!!

Last night I went to bed early as I was wrecked but I woke up to a distinct pulling feeling in my left hand side of my stomach felt like my muscles were being pulled out of my stomach followed by lots of little pricking stings .... I don’t know if this is a symptom but it certainly is a new feeling I personally have never felt before! I also felt a bit of lightning crotch which I have ivy got during my last pregnancy so I’m feeling a little hopeful! 🤞🏻🤞🏻Baby dust to all only 2 more days until I test 🤞🏻🤞🏻☘️☘️☘️🥰

@ImmyTTC I also started writing down my symptoms at 1 DPO lol just for fun but from what I’ve read you really shouldn’t start looking at your symptoms until 6DPO min but then again every body is different so who knows. Best of luck xx

@FinnsMammy that sounds very positive with the pulling sensation. A lot my friends had that and got their BFP so fingers crossed for you. Do you temp?

@Suki2020 thanks I googled it the minute it happened and saw a few others with BFPs had his symptom but then who knows it’s very hard to know! No I don’t temp to be honest this is my first month of trying after my first cycle after I got the coil removed so it’s all very new to me. I just used the cb ovulation tests this month if I don’t get pregnant within say 3 months I might start temping it all seems very complicated plus I feel like I’m already obsessing enough without adding temperature to the mix 😂😂🙈

@Rockape1992 could it be implantation bleeding ? How many DPO are you now ? Fingers crossed for you xx I know my sister got brown implantation bleeding with her baby!

Hi everyone! Hope it's ok to jump on this thread... none of my friends (that I know of) are TTC at the moment, plus we can't realistically see each other anyway so would be great to have some support!

I'm 28, TTC#1 and on Cycle 3, I think I'm 7DPO. I potentially had a CP last cycle (found an old test which I disregarded at 12DPO and it has 2 clear lines on, but had period 2 days after). I haven't had super obvious symptoms yet other than tender breasts and small twinges in my ovary areas on one side which I haven't had before! I know it's too early to be anything though...

I really hope things will happen soon, but there's always that niggling fear that something might be wrong and it's going to take a long time. I have irregular periods which is a bit of a worry, but I do ovulate each cycle so fingers crossed! Good luck to everyone :)

@heybabes welcome and good luck ☘️ I also noticed this symptom today twinges in my left around my ovary defo ovulated from this side too as I had ovulation cramping I’m 8dpo! Fingers crossed it means something! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@FinnsMammy Thank you! Yeah, I’m trying not to look into anything and I’m going to try and wait to test until AF is due... but that may be tricky 😂

@FinnsMammy I suppose there is a chance it could be but I just don’t have a good feeling about it. I’ve had it previous months and not had a bfp so I’m automatically tuned to think the worst when it happens. I think I’m about 10dpo but didn’t track this month as it was really stressing me out so can’t be 100% sure. I had brown spotting in my last pregnancy but just feel different this time round, like I’m expecting there to be a problem or for things to go wrong!

Eeek how’s everyone feeling? I feel like I ovulated about 4 weeks ago and it’s only been 8 days!!

I don’t know whether to test this week or wait for AF to be late. Also HOW do we stay calm and not get overly excited/hopeful? Any tips?! 😂🙈

Hi @MrsGee20 I'm also 8dpo. When do you normally start testing? I've bought ICs this month so just going to start from 9dpo. Last month I held out and I think it made me more anxious. It's only cycle #3 for me so I guess I'm still working out what is the best approach for me.
