2WW AF due 29th March

Anyone want to join me in the 2WW?

I think I ovulated yesterday. I had been using the clearblue digital ovulation tests, but ran out of test sticks on Tuesday, which is typical! I did have EWCM Monday until yesterday and this morning it seems to have turned sticky. I also got pains in my left lower belly yesterday, so the signs all point to yesterday as ovulation day.

Unfortunately we didn't dtd yesterday as me and DH both have covid... last time we dtd was Sunday night, so I'm already at a disadvantage this month, but still hoping, and I'll still be getting excited about everything little twinge or symptom that I feel over the next 2 weeks!

This is my 4th cycle TTC, we already have DD who's 14 months. Fingers crossed and baby dust everywhere!

@Pitstop1986 @ELJ1502 Thank you both ❤ I'm still having some light spotting, though it seems to come and go (but this also happened the last two months 🙁). Feeling like AF is due soon.

I've told myself if this carries on (and doesn't develop into AF) by Friday, I'll take a pregnancy test. I'm just wish my body would decide what it's doing!

@Polkadotfloral keeping fingers crossed still for you!

I'm only on 3DPO and already going mad with the symptom spotting and constant thinking about it all!

Polkadotfloral · 22/03/2023 11:06

@NavigatingLife Thank you!

It's so hard isn't it? I hope you're able to find some ways to distract yourself. 🙂

LittleWings22 · 22/03/2023 22:39

As the days go by i think im out i think AF is coming ive got the back ache the pain in my legs 😭 and last week i was so sure i was pregnant

Angelselevenx · 22/03/2023 22:42

@NavigatingLife I feel you, I'm one 1DPO and already going crazy haha.

@LittleWings22 you're not out until AF arrives! Do you normally have these symptoms? When is AF due?

LittleWings22 · 22/03/2023 22:57

That is true and yes i would altho i did do quite a bit of walking today so maybe its that. I dont really know as im all over the place but plan on testing friday as that will be 4 weeks from my last period

Polkadotfloral · 23/03/2023 05:53

I woke up this morning fully expecting AF to have arrived, but when I realised it hadn't, I decided I was going to crack and take a pregnancy test. I'm currently on CD31, 11dpo.

I feel really shaky and like I don't want to believe this is a positive (I've still got a little bit of watery bleeding when I wipe ). I feel really worried that it's not real.

2WW AF due 29th March
ELJ1502 · 23/03/2023 05:56

yep I’m out. BFN at 9dpo yesterday and starting to spot today :(

oh well onwards and hopefully towards a 2024 baby.

good luck to everyone else ❤️

ELJ1502 · 23/03/2023 05:58

Congratulations @Polkadotfloral that is a lovely line!

Polkadotfloral · 23/03/2023 06:05

@ELJ1502 thank you, in so scared as I'm still spotting so I don't really want to believe it at the moment.

There's still time for you, I've been spotting since 8dpo and still managed to get what I think might be a positive at 11dpo (though I'm too worried to believe it yet!). Crossing my fingers for you xx

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 06:19

@Polkadotfloral congratulations!! 😊

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 06:22

@bringmearainbow just had ovulation confirmed on NC! Temperature shot up this morning 🤞🏼 2DPO today

2WW AF due 29th March
NavigatingLife · 23/03/2023 06:40

@Polkadotfloral how exciting! Congrats!

@ELJ1502 don't count yourself out yet might be just spotting for a few days!

@Angelselevenx welcome to the start of the tww - I'm on 4DPO. Trying not to symptom spot but I said something to DH about it last night and he v quickly brought me back down to earth, he's too sensible 🤣 so I'll just log them in an app for my own tracking!

Polkadotfloral · 23/03/2023 06:41

@Angelselevenx thank you. I feel too scared to acknowledge it at the moment due to fact I'm still spotting.

Going to but more tests during my lunch break today and hopefully the line will get stronger and the spotting will stop.

Also I hope your tww goes quickly! ❤️

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 06:42

@NavigatingLife eek thanks! When is AF due for you? How long have you been TTC?

This is cycle 2 for us and the first of tracking my BBT.

Haha men, sometimes it's good as they stop us from going into overdrive. Definitely keep track of symptoms, I'm going to as well. Last month I was going crazy symptom spotting and I vowed this month I wouldn't be the same 🙄

Polkadotfloral · 23/03/2023 06:46

@NavigatingLife thank you! I'm too scared to believe it at the moment xx

mrsed1987 · 23/03/2023 07:03

Hi all, I am in my TWW on cycle 2 of trying for my 2nd, my son is 4 and was conceived 2nd cycle although we were not actually try and a certainly was monitoring my myself like I am now! Lol

I'd actually like to wait and conceive next month as not sure about a Dec baby! Lol

NavigatingLife · 23/03/2023 08:51

@Angelselevenx this is our 3rd cycle. I only went off birth control end of Dec so things are maybe still settling - AF around 1st April. My OPK peak has been around CD 20-22 so far but last month my AF came 1 week after my peak. I did also get covid (1st time) at the start of Feb which I think threw of my month. Who knew there was such a fine art to all of this!

@mrsed1987 welcome! How far into your tww are you? I also had thought this about a Christmas baby - DH and I always said we would want to try to avoid that timing but now we're here we aren't too bothered now! We love Christmas and got married around then so I've got past any worried around then!

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 10:06

@NavigatingLife we are literally identical. This is our second cycle, due 1st April for AF and also have positive OPK CD20!!

Pitstop1986 · 23/03/2023 10:16

@Polkadotfloral congratulations! The spotting must have been implantation bleeding! I bet you can hardly believe it after thinking that you're out!

I'm 5dpo today. The need to test is strong! I'm sure that I get worse every month! Haha I won't test until minimum 10dpo so I've got a long 5 days of waiting.

How's everyone else? Noticing any symptoms?

Polkadotfloral · 23/03/2023 11:20

@Pitstop1986 thank you! I still can't believe it - I'm still spotting so am feeling v anxious about it all. I'm going to buy some more tests in my lunch break and keep monitoring it over the next week or so.

Just wish the spotting would stop so I could feel less anxious about it!

NavigatingLife · 23/03/2023 12:41

@Angelselevenx snap! We can hold each other accountable to not test too early hahaha!

@Pitstop1986 I had some pain and cramping 1DPO near where I think my right ovary is (why is it not obvious where exactly that is on any diagrams?!) then last last night and today that pain has returned - bit of a jabbing like pain?! Also had bad heartburn last night but putting it down to eating a big pizza for dinner and accidently falling asleep whilst reading an hour later 🤣 any symptoms with you?

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 14:03

@NavigatingLife yes please!! You must be 2DPO also? I'm definitely symptom spotting as I know it's way way to early and nothing would've even happened yet but I'm so tired I feel like I need an afternoon nap 😂

NavigatingLife · 23/03/2023 18:42

@Angelselevenx my app is saying 4DPO! Peak OPK on Sat with ovulation Sunday it seems...?! My temp dipped slightly this morning which worried me but trying not to think about it too much

Angelselevenx · 23/03/2023 19:10

@NavigatingLife oh perfect okay, how long are your periods? My last AF was on 01/03, ovulation CD20 and now 2dpo eeek.

Did it, do you have any photos of your graph? X
