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

I'm really sorry @FlyOnTheWall89 here's hoping you're next cycle is the one 😘
@Lucyasc it's frustrating waiting lovely but I think take a test again in 24 hours? Do you normally have spotting before AF?
@Mama500 @Cruz86 to be honest I'm debating it was even a line but will hold off until 11-12dpo and see where I am. Thank you xx

See what I mean. Top is today 🤦‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ serves me right for testing early 😂 xx

Sorry to hear that @FlyOnTheWall89 hopefully your progesterone result gives you a feeling of confidence and calm for this cycle.

@Lucyasc like others have said, it really is a case of waiting and seeing which is so hard. I drove myself absolutely crazy over the past 15 months of being convinced I was and then taking tests almost to confirm I was wrong. It's impossible not to symptom spot, I know exactly how it feels. Just got to keep going with each day!

@Cruz86 @Ladylou17 @FlipperyGibbet thanks all its nice to know there are others who are going through the same thing! It is so hard not to symptom spot! I've never noticed spotting before AF only once but there was a lot more visible when wiping and I came on immediately the next morning. Still no sign of AF but not due until Saturday. Will have to be patient and see what happens! X

@FlyOnTheWall89 so sorry! How are you doing?

@ladylou17 ahh I see that you mean!! Why do we test early and do it to ourselves. Still so hopeful for you! When is AF due?

@Lucyasc ahh it’s so hard to not symptom spot when ttc. Let us know how you get on testing and if the spotting stops before AF

It's so difficult with tests because now you're looking at your first test a couple of days later when the lines start to change @Ladylou17 😂 Try and give it until Saturday and fingers crossed you get a nice clear line 🤞🏻

@FlyOnTheWall89 how many dpo were you when your progesterone was tested? X

My temp has dropped significantly and I'm only 4dpo 😩 x

@Cruz86 so I was 9DPO I think, CD23 of a 29 day cycle. I got my AF at like 10 PM last night so not sure I count yesterday as a new cycle, or today. Probs doesn't really matter.

Feeling deflated tbh. I really wanted to conceive naturally yet I found myself googling about IVF this morning.

I don't think a significant drop at this point in your cycle is a bad thing? Are you 100% sure you're not a few days further on?

@FlipperyGibbet you must be so so happy. I really can't imagine getting 2 lines at this point and you've waited so long. You seem so calm. I just feel like something must be wrong and I don't know if I should feel like that. Maybe I should also get my lining checked as I do have short and pretty light periods.

@Ladylou17 maybe you'll get more clarity in 2/3 days. Such a painful wait though, I understand.

I don't know when to do my test because I didn't ovulate until around cd18 so I either do it today at 4dpo or wait until Monday at 8dpo. Probably best to wait, thank you!

Oh I'm so sorry @FlyOnTheWall89 😞 What other tests do you have coming up? Try not to think about IVF just yet, I know easier said than done.

One of my apps says I'm 6dpo but that would mean I ovulated before my peak opk 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Cruz86 I think wait a bit because either way, it is really toooo early to test. Give it until Monday (excruciating I know). So this Saturday is AMH test - so that is ovarian reserve. I'm 32 so could go either way I think, although all other tests suggest everything is functioning as it should be. Then it's the SA results. After we have had both of those, if all fine, I'll probably book that thing privately where you have dye out through your tubes to check they're not blocked.

@Mama500 I know 🤦‍♀️😂
@Cruz86 @FlyOnTheWall89 to be honest I think it was a false positive it's just really frustrating because it was a clear pink line. Just algae a good cry to set myself up for the rest of the months disappointments.
@FlyOnTheWall89 hope you are ok, good luck with the ovarian reserve tests I have my first blood test next week.
@Cruz86 try hold out till early next week if you can I know it's hard. AF is due Tuesday for me xx

Sorry, I meant progesterone testing! Not a pregnancy test 😂 I won't be doing one of those until next Wednesday.

When will you get the SA results @FlyOnTheWall89? So sorry it's come to this for you 😞

@Ladylou17 oh I hope you're okay. A false positive is such of a mindf**ck xx

@ladylou17 I remember from another thread you had a few evaps. I do wonder if maybe these are CP (not that you are out yet) I’m still hopeful this is your month x

Thanks @Cruz86 it really it. Yes @Mama500 it's so frustrating cause they were so pink this time the others I think I knew were grey.
It's just so disappointing isn't it, I'm on night shifts too and tired/teary which doesn't help.
@FlyOnTheWall89 I'm wondering do I do an AMH home test and then wait for my GP bloods this month xx

@Ladylou17 which bloods are you having done? How long have you been trying, can't remember?

@Cruz86 We will get SA results a week tomorrow we think.

@Mama500 how are you feeling? I am looking forward to have all the results in hand and hopefully that will just make me realise nothing is wrong and that we just have to wait but no doubt I'll then begin to wonder why. It's probs easier if something is wrong and we have a plan of action. No easy news I guess... the best would just be two lines.

@Ladylou17 I'm going to a clinic to have them taken because I don't think they'll be accepted if they're done via one of those postal check services. It's £110 but I think it's probably good for me to know anyway as I'm 32 so see it as a longer term investment. I don't however get a consultation included in that price, so I'll be relying on reading and if it's terrible, I'll go to a consultant with results in hand to move onto the next steps / see what can be done.

@ladylou17 I saw it clear as day didn’t even need to zoom in

@FlyOnTheWall89 im ok thank you. I feel for you because I was in the exact same position a few years ago and I did get my 2 lines. Yours will come it’s just a question of when.

I hope my second would be easier to conceive but it seems I’m having the same issues. Luckily my first was well worth the wait!

I'm having d7 and d21 bloods by the GP I've found a test online with doctor analysis for £79 so may go with that.
I'm 35 we've been trying for 6 months since mmc doing pretty much all we can. I know it's not that long it's just so deflating isn't it @FlyOnTheWall89
@Mama500 yes it's so strange isn't it xx

That is so reassuring @Mama500 x

@Ladylou17 ye it is and I think knowledge is control in a situation so out of our control so it helps me.

I'm going to try to be positive now for a good few weeks (then probably spiral in the TWW haha) x

Haha @FlyOnTheWall89 I know the feeling. Thank you all for being there to talk to 😘 @FlyOnTheWall89 @Mama500 @Cruz86 this ttc stuff is hard xx

We've got a good little group here haven't we ❤️

We do ❤️

Had blood when I went to the loo earlier 😞 Think my progesterone test may be very helpful for me going forwards x

How many dpo are you? I feel like this is happening to so many of us it makes me wonder if it’s the vaccinations @Cruz86

💕

@Cruz86 personal but what sort of blood and how much? Could be IB from a burrowing embryo? Are you booked in to have the progesterone test? Xx
