The Two Week Wait Club

[peaky297]

Hi all! As the title suggests, I have set this up as a space for those of us who are TTC and in that long wait between ovulation and when AF is due!
So, to kick us off... I have been TTC #2 since November. Had one chemical in that time and now well into the TWW with AF due on Tuesday! After spending a lot of money on early tests / having the disappointment of a chemical I am now avoiding early testing and will instead wait until AF is late, but zero judgement on anyone who likes to test early - I totally get the urge!

Look forward to hearing from others who are also on their TTC journey!

@GemLou88 have you caught a peak this evening? X

Hey @sashastuck i haven’t followed RHR, but just looked back on through my Apple Watch and here is my RHR the month I conceived my Son who is 2 now. I got my BFP 31st Jan. Hope this helps x
@Angelselevenx no peak yet. Last few days I’ve used my clear blue digital ovulation tests and had the empty circle. This evening I got a flashing smiley face so hopefully tomorrow. How you feeling? X

@GemLou88 woohoo! Keep me updated.

I feel alright thanks I had cramps earlier which tbh I don't normally get cramps before AF but this could just be my body after HBC and the new symptoms I'll get each month. I'll test again tomorrow anyway just to torture myself some more 🤣

@GemLou88 I've just done two IC tests and both of them have vvvvvfl, trying so hard to get them on camera. Not going to get my hopes up yet and I'll test again later and tomorrow

@Angelselevenx i can see something! Hopefully tomorrow you will have a stronger line 🤞🏻
Another flashing smiley for me this morning. And LH doesn’t seem as strong. Either I peaked in the night or I’m going to try again. My temp shot up this morning though

Negative test now on day AF due.. have a feeling it will arrive tomorrow 😥

@GemLou88 that looks like a good temp raise there! I usually properly peak in the night then LH is low again by morning so it could be!

These are the tests from today (bar the top one that was yesterday) still sooo early but we will see what tomorrow brings!

@Jennifer89 sending love x

Amazing @Angelselevenx hope it’s a sticky bean and your lines get darker. So excited for you! I just got a static smiley on the clear blue ovulation tests which I’m so glad because OH wasn’t up (no pun intended) for dtd last night and made up for it this morning. Feel like I’m going through the tww all over again x

I took my first tests today both came back negative,

im guessing I’m probably out but with my period not due for another 6 days I’m still a little hopeful

@GemLou88 thank you, feeling a bit down but fingers crossed for next month.
I would have still been overjoyed with December baby, but in fairness it is not the best month with prep for Christmas and other birthdays in family..

@Kirstyddd it could still be too early 🤞🏻
@Jennifer89 how long have you been ttc for?
@Angelselevenx how you doing today? Any more tests?
@peaky297 how you getting on? X

@Jennifer89 6 months.. I know they say can take women up to a year generally but knowing stats say most women do within 6 months I think has just got more down hasn't happened..
Some months to be fair though due to health reasons with dh (he has eczema which can be on and off with how he feels) we only managed to dtd maybe one or twice in fertile window but other months at least 3 times (which is the suggested minimum)..

*On months only dtd once/twice we were still able to aim at least 1-2 days before/day of ovulation..

Any advice from anyone on these results?

@GemLou88 I got my BFP! I had a vvfl on a FRER and Boots 5 day early yesterday and had like progression on another FRER this morning 🤍 top one was yesterday 11dpo and bottom one this morning 12dpo. How are you doing? X

@Angelselevenx congratulations

@Angelselevenx congratulations!!

@Angelselevenx aww congratulations!!❤I think I’m out. My RHR dropped by 1 this morning after plateau for 6 days. BFN at 12dpo. Gutted!

@Jennifer89 don't lose hope. I know it’s hard but give it a bit more time. Hopefully it will happen for you soon. I’m in cycle 5 and this cycle we only dtd twice before O. Probably not enough but for some ladies it only takes the once. Sending hugs x
@Ted0503 could be an implantation dip on 7dpo. Any symptoms?
@Angelselevenx amazing lines! So happy for you. Does the OH know? I’m ok. Think I’m 1DPO today. Temp dipped yesterday and shot back up today so just have a wait and see again x

@Angelselevenx Congrats! 😀
@GemLou88 thank you, I will try not to lose hope. I think this month has gotten to more than usual due to hearing that most women conceive within 6 months and also has some unusual symptoms which got my hopes up. Feeling a bit better today. Accepting it since AF arrived yesterday..
Wish you good luck for this cycle!

No symptoms out of the ordinary for me. Feel exactly the same as I do before AF every month so not sure. Trying not to get my hopes up and had a breakout as well so maybe just usual PMS symptoms. I drive myself crazy with symptom spotting every month 😂. @Jennifer89 dont give up hope, I’m coming up to 12 months of trying now.

@Ted0503 thank you, going to try keep positive. Hope you also get good news too!

What should I do ladies,

so I have to apps and never did ovulation tests, using the apps guess of my ovulations they cam up with 22nd and 24th anyway I dtd 3 times that we to cover all basis

course that leads me to say I could either be on OPD days 11 or 9

I have t tested today because I have BFN for 2 days pervious, would you test tomorrow ???

@GemLou88 hello! I'm ok thanks - been having my usual two week break ahead of my fertile window /TWW! It's so nice not to obsess over everything for a bit! 😂 how are you?

@Angelselevenx huge congratulations! All looking very good - wishing you all the best! X

@GemLou88 thank you! Yeah, he's obsessing over the lines as much as me now 🤣. I'm having some brown spotting so trying to not worry/get my hopes up to much xx

@peaky297 thank you! X
