2WW

[ANP2020]

Hello ladies!

I’ve been reading these threads (at all hours clearly!) I just wondered if anyone was currently in their 2WW and wanted to join me? It’s so long!! I’m ttc number 2, have a 4 year old son, fell first time with him luckily so certainly not expecting the same this time round. This is our first cycle. I’m only using an app not any ovulation sticks so not sure how many days po I am, but According to app fertile window ended yesterday. AF due 21st I only have 24/25 day cycles since coming off my pill.

Anywhoo no symptoms yet as too early! I’ve had ovulation cramps and a few nights of very intense dreams. I think the only symptoms I can remember pre bfp with my son was really really sore boobs, couldn’t bare a bra on!! And really tired.

Please people join me to symptom spot and keep each other company during the 2WW.

@ANP2020 well cinnamon sounds really beneficial in many ways and hope it helps this cycle! I’ll definitely give it a go.

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing that sounds promising! I still feel quite normal so far

@Annapolis35 definitley!! I think it’s got to the stage where I’ll try anything!
so we used the preseed last night… was ok! But haven’t braved the fertilily! Has anyone tried one?

Morning!

@Annapolis35 Sorry to read about the mc...I can't even imagine how hard it must of been. I have read a few things that people fall pregnant the following month after. Do you tend to be an early tester or do you hold out for AF showing?

@ANP2020 I haven't heard of the cinnamon tablets but have just had a google and if there is hope of them working then they are worth a try! Sounds similar to me trying POM juice and sesame/sunflower seeds in smoothies to help with fertility. I will try anything if it is going to help. I have also read about fertilily but haven't bought one as wasn't too sure whether to try it or not.

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing Have you tested this morning? How many DPO are you now?

@Hjudge56 How are you feeling now? Are you 3DPO now?

@Shaker21 Last time I just waited for my period to not arrive and tested when it didn’t, and I don’t have tests in the house as I know myself and know it would drive me mad. I still haven’t really had a proper AF yet, I think I had one day of bleeding last month so no idea what’s going on. Hoping this month will be good news! I’ve also read and been told that you’re hyper fertile following an mc, hope that’s true!

@Shaker21 yes i think 3 DPO! I’m feeling okay! Had a few dull cramps/ twinges the last couple days but that’s classic post ovulation symptoms I think!

I had a chemical last month so I’m just trying to be as relaxed as possible this month… some people have told me they have heard lots of stories of people falling pregnant the month after a chemical but there was a lot of emotion involved so I’m having the attitude of what will be will be!

how are you feeling and where are you on your cycle?

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing Thank you very much! How many DPO are you now?

yes I’ve actually heard a lot that people conceive the next month! So fingers are very crossed! Only issue is I don’t know if we timed our dancing right! Ovulate CD15 and danced CD10,11,13! I guess we’ll find out in a couple weeks!

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing ah keeping my fingers crossed for you!! Hopefully you’ll get your BFP in a few days! When is AF due?

thank you! I didn’t know if a couple days before ovulation would hold sperm that isn’t fresh enough!

Likewise, when I was a student I got pregnant from having sex on the Thursday and ovulating on the Sunday so definitely possible.

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing There is a line but not sure if it’s an evap? When is your af due?

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing whoops sorry just read AF is due in 5 days!! Hopefully it doesn’t show

Hey ladies! I’m just catching up on all these after a long day at work so will post properly tomorrow, but I just had to reply to @thebloodycatwontstopmeowing i can see it! I can see the line!! I can see it on the first cheapies vvfl but can see a flicker. But I’m sure I can see it on the FRER without zooming in! I have been working since 8:00am though so maybe seeing all sorts but 🤞🤞🤞 it maybe your bfp!! Xx

Hi guys,

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing Sorry you had a negative test this morning, still have got 4 days till AF so there is still time. You're 10/11DPO aren't you and implantation can happen up to 12DPO so not over until AF shows...fingers crossed!!

@Hjudge56 Are you 5DPO today now? How are you feeling? I find it really frustrating all of the symptoms and how you can feel when it is so similar to progesterone symptoms and is so hard to tell things apart. I have had the past 3 cycles different symptoms in all the TWW and was sure it was something different and could be to do with implantation or pregnancy and was just progesterone 😩

How is everyone else doing?

I have deleted my tracking app and just winging it this month and see how it goes, we are just BD every other day and wait and see what happens. It is making me a bit nervous not going to necessarily be able to know exactly what day I ovulate and what DPO I am or when AF should arrive but going for the relaxed not thinking about it approach...

@Shaker21 i am actually not feeling very great! I’ve had period pain cramps, twinges and aches in my thighs the past couple days and it’s making me feel like this time hasn’t worked! Just feel quite uncomfortable and very sluggish.. I hope something bad isn’t going on!
how are you?

@Hjudge56 Oh that's so weird...have you ever had the aches in your thighs before around this time? Do you know you definitely ovulated when you did and that maybe it didn't happen then and is trying again? Do you wait for AF to show or is there a DPO you tend to start testing?

I am doing ok, feeling a bit achy and twingy so I think coming up to ovulation time soon. I always tend to get more specific sharp aching in my right side more than my left so not sure if that is anything to be worried about or why that happens. Does anyone else notice that at all with themselves?

@Shaker21 no I’m quite sure I ovulated when I did! I did OPKs, digital fertility monitor, app check and EWCM so I couldn’t have been anymore thorough haha! I usually have shorter cycles (around 25/26 days) so it could be a sign of implantation at 5/6DPO! But I guess I won’t know for a few more days!

I am exactly the same with ovulation twinges!! It always seems to be my right side and it’s previously worried me however I have heard from a few ladies that this can be common! Are you tracking your ovulation?

@Hjudge56 Oh well fingers crossed then it is just implantation and is doing it earlier if you have shorter cycles! How many DPO does AF normally show? I'm not tracking with OPK's this month, I was for past few months and also doing my temperature to confirm it but decided to try and take a relaxed approach this month with no testing/tracking.

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing I do feel like I can see a slight line on the first picture but I am never any good when people post line eyes pictures on the app I was on and could never see it when others could so feel like I just see things so may not be much help 😬The past 3 months I have had different symptoms every month that AF has shown up and convince myself it has to be pregnancy related because I haven't felt it before and then AF shows up 😂I just really try not symptoms spotting too much and take them all with a pinch of salt and just blame progesterone.
