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!

@Angelselevenx 😂😂 I’ve been Googling bbt charts today too! I did do another LH test and there’s no change 🤷‍♀️

@GemLou88 do you have a photo of your graph today?

@Angelselevenx todays graph. Think I’d feel more positive if my temp was climbing a bit higher

This mornings chart and LH test. Had lower back cramping in the night and more AF type cramping this morning

@GemLou88 that's looking promising, are you going to test?

I think I'm out, I've got cramps as well and my temps just staying the same 😖

Please can anyone help me with what to make of my chart? It’s my first month tracking BBT so not really sure what to make of this. Do you think it shows I have ovulated? Any help would be appreciate!!

Hi @Ted0503 do you have any photos of your LH tests you took? I'd say without looking at your tests you ovulated around CD15/16? That's going by the temperature dip and the LH peak/drop

Hey @Ted0503 I’ve only been temping a little while and my chart confuses me sometimes. But I’d probably say you ovulated on the CD16. Keep going with it, it’s quite interesting x

@Angelselevenx you’re not out until AF shows. And could be implantation cramps.

I might test tomorrow. I’ve had more cramps and dizziness. But I don’t know if I felt some ovulation pain and cm is quite watery at the moment. I took an LH test and got this…. It’s a bit darker but not a peak. Will test again later x

@GemLou88 that's interesting! I might take an LH test you know, my pregnancy tests have been negative so far. I've got lower back ache today and me too with the watery CM. Thought I'd peed myself at the gym 😂😂

@GemLou88 @Angelselevenx thanks both 😊! Back to the TWW and final PDG blood test with the drs for this cycle tomorrow! 🤞🏻

@Ted0503 keep us updated!
@Angelselevenx did you do a LH test? My lower back pain has ramped up. Would have thought AF was on the way with the cramps too

@GemLou88 I didn't, I'll do one this morning as I'm 9DPO now too. How's your temp looking today? Mines dropped slightly by 0.02 🤔

@Angelselevenx my temp dropped 0.1
I did an IC test this morning and was negative. I use my Apple Watch to temp and playing around with the FF app yesterday found that it can import my date from my watch straight to the app which is so much easier. It adds my resting heart rate too and hours sleep.

@GemLou88 that's a good idea, have you been using your Apple Watch for temping the whole month? just taken an IC test and BFN.

@GemLou88 I'm really clutching at straws here 😂 but do you see the faintest of faintest lines? It's probably nothing but thought I'd play around the the colouring. If you don't please be honest I honestly don't mind 😂 I still think it's negative but I swear I see something

@GemLou88 just to torment myself some more.... probably an evap or dodgy test. I'll wait until tomorrow and test again 🤔

@Angelselevenx i can see something, definitely in that last photo. Definitely test again tomorrow 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Angelselevenx I’ve put in my app that I’m having more watery CM and now it’s saying it doesn’t think I’ve ovulated 🤦‍♀️

Don’t know if this helps anyone but at the moment Amazon are selling 2 clear blue digital with weeks tests for £7.50 x

@GemLou88 hmm, I'd ignore that! Maybe take out the watery CM? What day last month did you ovulate

@GemLou88 and how long are your cycles normally? X

@Angelselevenx it is possible I haven’t ovulated yet. My cycles have been all over the place since coming off the pill in October. My last cycle was 29 days and the one before that was 36. Ovulate between CD20-24 so would be around now. I’m CD 21 today

@GemLou88 ah okay I've got you! I normally ovulate CD21 as well. Hopefully you get your peak soon with a temp drop, what did your LH test look like today?

@Angelselevenx todays LH test. Will take another this evening to see if it peaks

Hey all, I’m not tracking BBT this cycle so can’t comment there (going to start next month if this cycle is unsuccessful) but I’m still monitoring my RHR. I’m 9 DPO and my heart rate steadily increased from before ovulation until 5 DPO then has plateaued for 4 days! Here’s my chart, I ovulated on 21st. Any ideas?! Sending love and luck!
