2WW anyone? Af due Friday

[rita83]

Hya all

I am new to mums net. I am currently in my tww and losing hope again for this month. My af is due Friday the 24th. I have no symptoms really! Slight bruised feeling in sides of my boobs, and yesterday and sharp stabbing pains in my pelvic area. That's about it really. Just feel like af will show again and it's not happened again. This was my chart for this month as well and when we dtd

Unfortunately I think I'm only just ovulating now 😩 nearly threw up brushing my teeth this morning though. It's not a bad thing that you don't know exactly where you are, means you're not obsessing so much (I hope!) x

Oh really!!! @Cruz86 have u ovulated later then? I must have already ovulated cos I don't think I would have ovulated this late. I had that watery cm for three days in a row last week unless I haven't ovulated properly this month I haven't got a clue haha!!!

Going by the opks, yep! I honestly thought I'd already ovulated but these are telling me a different story 😂

Hi @Cruz86 and @rita83! So I guess if I go by my app, I am now 3DPO. Its a bit of a wait and see time and slightly boring. I feel nothing rn :-).

Have you got a higher peak than the other day Cruz86?!!! x

This stage is the worst isn't it @FlyOnTheWall89!

I had my first peak on Saturday at 83%, then peaks all day Sunday with the highest at 185%, then peaks all day yesterday until the evening with the highest at 124%. So my app is predicting ovulation today 🤷🏼‍♀️ I've got a feeling it was yesterday though x

Hya @FlyOnTheWall89 I feel nothing and if I ovulated saturday then I would be 3dpo. I had creamy cm in my underwear earlier and thought would I get this so early after ovulation. My boobs hurt as well both of them at the sides. I had this last month as well when I conceived. The boob pain I mean but didn't think much of it. Just have to wait and see if we notice any changes. I know i definitely felt implantation last month and was around 10dpo so keep an eye out for period type pain around this time. I had low back pains as well. X

It's still very early! Give it another week and see how things go @rita83. Got my fingers crossed xx

@rita83 I get creamy straight away after ov - sorry TMI. I now have no EWCM so I think it has defo passed now - fingers firmly crossed. Yes will keep an eye out for any unusual pain/ cramps. I do sort of think I will either be pregnant or not and I can't effect it so no point worrying about it too much. I find the whole TTC very mentally consuming.

yes your the same as me and thinking back now I think I had this creamy cm as well and I had still conceived. Think I just had more of it over the odd days. It was 10dpo I started to feel period type pain and I also had sore boobs last month after ovulation as well. I find the tww horrible and I have tried not to think about this time x

Hi all
Hope you don't mind me joining! 5 dpo and trying not to test! I know it's so pointless :)

Hello @Ladylou17 welcome 🤗 yeah 5dpo the egg wouldn't have even implanted yet. It's anywhere from 6dpo to 12dpo. Is this your first time trying? I had a chemical pregnancy last month and one in January earlier this year. Currently around 3dpo I think but not that sure to be honest 😂

TTC is so mentally draining. It should be an exciting time but we just find ourselves obsessing and worrying about everything! I wrote a full list of possible symptoms with my son from 1dpo. But to be fair, the first cycle I did that was the one I conceived!

Welcome @Ladylou17! How long have you been trying?

Hi @rita83 @Cruz86 😊
It's my first time trying properly I had a mc at 9 weeks back in august so feeling ready to try again.
I know it's so stressful isn't it! Trying not to symptom spot but it's all I do. Had a slight temp dip this morning as well not sure what to make of it it's so confusing,
Fingers crossed this is our month ladies xx
How long have you been trying?

Welcome @Ladylou17! You are at a similar stage to us.

Some introductory bits about me: I am 32, DH is 34. We are on cycle #6 of trying. x

Awww @Ladylou17 so sorry to hear this!! So heartbreaking isn't it I feel you emotions. I came off the pill in June mid June and fell in September just gone so didn't take long but never stuck unfortunately. This month we never dtd that much but hey it only takes one time they say. I have been ill as well so haven't really took much notice now so this is why I don't know when I ovulated. It was supposed to be Saturday and I had watery cm leading up to Saturday so I am not sure tbh! Wishing you all the luck this month 🤞 hope this is good for all of us x

Oh really sorry to hear that @Ladylou17 😞 hope this is the month for you and you go on to have a healthy pregnancy!

TTC #2, I'm 28 and this is my second cycle (but didn't track or anything last cycle!)

@Ladylou17 sorry to hear of your MC. It must be gut wrenching to get that far along (even though in the grand scheme of things, its still early) and have a MC. Sending hugs. Wishing you all the best in the months ahead. How long did it take before you conceived the first time around? x

@FlyOnTheWall89 thanks, I came off the pill a month before my BFP so I'm hoping that it's not a long time now but you never know do you.

I'm 35 and DH is 41 first time trying so pretty anxious

Thanks @rita83 sorry to hear about your loss. It was horrendous time for us wouldn't wish it on anyone. You hear 1 in 4 but never think it will be you. Do you track your temp as well?

@Cruz86 thank you lovely. You too! Wishing you all a positive month we can do this xx

This is my chart. Think I'm 4/5 DPO x

@Ladylou17 I don't track anything anymore. Used to track with ovulation tests but don't even do that. Don't temperature check either just dtd in the fertile window and when I get the fertile mucus. Worked last month doing this. Just found doing all the testing and checking makes it more stressful. They say if you just act natural like you aren't trying it's more than likely to happen apparently. Like me at the moment I don't know how many dpo I am and cos of my chemical I don't know if I have ovulated earlier than I though. I have kept feeling sick today on and off and yesterday but where I have a really bad cold I don't know if it's to do with that either 😂 so confusing!!! The tww is the worst because you are constantly symptom spotting all the time and u have to bear in mind that the progesterone hormone mimics pregnancy symptoms as well and this hormone rises in the second half of your cycle. I wish you so much luck and I will keep everyone updated on my progress, but I will not be testing before af this time as last month was so heartbreaking for me 😞 xx

@Ladylou17 by looking at your chart you ovulated on cycle day 13 or maybe the day after this 😊

Thanks Rita 😘 sending hugs must have been horrible. I think after this month if nothing I will stop tracking and see how we go. Xx

How is everyone this morning? X

Hello @Cruz86 I am ok. Getting better now. Went to the bathroom earlier and loads of that white cm again this Mornjng boobs still hurting as well which is odd cos I am not due af til end of next week. How are you doing? X

Hi @Cruz86 - I feel nothing, nada but O was around Saturday so still v early.

What does everyone do re coffee and wine during the TWW? I always have a latte in the morning. Just wondering what general thoughts on this was? How are you? xx
