2WW - who's with me? 1DPO today!

[mashm24]

Hey. I am 1DPO today, anybody else? First month trying to conceive our second child (I have PCOS also).

Would be great to have a few ladies in the same boat so we can help each other through the very long wait!! X

@Soph2512 oh wow it could! As it would be way too early to be AF? Is there a chance your ovulation day could be slightly out?

I dont think so, I got a flashy smiley face saturday with EWCM an then a static one sunday/ monday which is why I thought it would of been Sunday but then I also didnt have any EWCM at that point. AF isnt due until at the earliest wednesday as i have a very short LP but noramlly around friday next week

@Soph2512 I would definitely take that as a very positive sign! Implantation can happen around day 5 soooo it's definitely not unlikely at all!! 😀😀

I really hope soo.. but I also cant get my hopes up yet! it feels even longer away to test now

Hello! Please can I join in? Eek!

This is our first month of trying, I haven't started OPKs yet but just seeing what happens for a month or two using an app. I think I'm 4DPO, and DTD 3 times in my fertile window! We shall see 🤞🏼

Hello @Vic231 - welcome 😀 eee how exciting. Are you TTC for your first child? X

I should have added 😂 second child! Although it feels like a new experience as with her it was a 'f it' moment 😂 and she was conceived on the first try and one DTD! So was a big surprise!

@Vic231 aww lovely! Omg this sounds exactly like us haha! Same thing happened with our DS1, a random one off and no planning.

Since then I've been diagnosed with PCOS so it could be completely different this time around - who knows!

Slightly scared to be pregnant again though, the nausea was not pleasant!!😂

Oh gosh it was the food aversions for me! Grim 😂

Wow how similar! It feels so bizarre this time, actually planning and preparing. I don't think it will be long until I'm using OPKs though! I don't know how to go about the testing either, last time I managed to wait until my period was a week late!! I'm not sure how 😂

Oh wow @Vic231 - you managed to hold out 😂 I couldn't test quick enough last time haha!

It is strange planning. And then you become a little obsessed with it, it's not the healthiest for your mind - but needs must 😅

Have you noticed any symptoms yet? Last pregnancy I noticed a metal taste about 3dpo so I'm just sitting here waiting to taste metal!!

Ahh I know, seems mad I waited that long 😂 think some of it was disbelief though haha!

Last time I didn't have too many symptoms until I was 7 weeks and then they all came! I remember I had period like cramps and sore boobs. I had the period type cramping yesterday and last night but feels it's too early?! Or it could have been late ovulation or my brain playing tricks on me.

My brain is now trying to decipher whether I can taste metallic 😂

Cramping can definitely be a sign in the early days. I know it's hard not to analyse every little twinge your body makes.

Hi @mashm24 I remember you from another thread! Thanks for starting this one!

I'm 2DPO. We've been fairly relaxed this time. I'm tracking my cycles rather than using ovulation sticks like last time.

This is our first month trying and we have a DD whose 17 months. Got pregnant very quickly before so itl be interesting to see how it is the second time around!

Ah yes hello, I remember as your situation was similar to mine 😃😃 it's nice to have others to talk to during the wait! @dwightschrutebeets

I'm also interested to see if it will be as quick to conceive this time. I really hope so!! How are you feeling :)?

I kinda do but if it takes a bit longer I'm cool with that 🙈 its so scary thinking a toddler and a newborn... but also so exciting! Feeling okay just so tired, my daughter is luckily a really good sleeper but I'm just so tired! But think that's standard parenting isn't it 😂

How are you doing?

Awww yes. I think I've been tired for the past year now 😂 our DS1 is also a good sleeper - it makes it so much easier doesn't it? One of my fears is that the next baby will be the complete opposite. I'm feeling okay thank you :-) @dwightschrutebeets

How are you all feeling ladies?

I stupidly did my BBT temp today and it was really low (lower than the cover) so now I'm thinking my AF is on the way, although it would be really early. Urgh. I shouldn't have touched the thermometer 😂

Also, by around 5dpo last time I definitely felt different. I feel exactly the same I always do so far!

@mashm24 hey hun, I'm feeling absolutely fine now, i had mild cramps from 0 to 4dpo but i hardly felt anything yesterday and today i feel fine. No bloating,cramps,not bloated, boobs arnt sore ect and my temps rising so I feel out already 🤦‍♀️😩😠

@Bellabeemarie hello🥰 if your temp is still rising I think that's positive? Mine was around 36.84 and then today randomly 36.34 - but I feel like I'm getting a cold which could by why. Which dpo are you now?

Feel like the days are going so slow!!

@mashm24 5dpo, what dpo are you? Could be implantation dip? That's common around 6dpo but can happen upto about 12dpo I think 🤞

Ah that's rubbish you feel like your coming down with something!x

@Bellabeemarie 4dpo I think, potentially 5 - so a little too early to be the implantation dip. Your chart definitely looks promising so far 🤞 x

Time is going so slowly! 5DPO. I feel like every month I feel sick, tender boobs and I always say if Id had sex Id think I was pregnant and I feel exactly like that so I don't think it's my month.

When I was pregnant with my daughter I didn't have any symptoms apart from a splitting headache at 9DP.

When's everyone testing or are you waiting for AF?

It's so difficult to know because PMS is the same as early pregnancy symptoms. And I think everything pregnancy you have can be soooo different.

I think I'm going to do a test on Wednesday at around 7/8dpo because I got my last positive at 8dpo! And simply because I'm so done with the waiting haha. What about you?

Ooh that's exciting!! I brought some FRER on Amazon yesterday they were on offer! My husbands away Thursday and Friday with work then away with our daughter on Saturday so he wants to test on Sunday but there's absolutely no way I'd be able to wait! So I don't know what to do 😂 I got a faint line at 10DPO but maybe I'll try 8 👀

I'm 8DPO today according to my app and I seem to be symptom spotting left right and centre 😂 all of a sudden I don't remember what's normal for me or not 🤦🏻‍♀️😬😂

I currently have slightly fiery nipples and had some spikey pain in my left boob. The cramping has stopped. TMI but I've had light diarrhoea for the last few days and now no poo for 24 hours 🤷🏻‍♀️ also had a light fluttering feeling in my tummy. All of this combined I'm wondering if it's in my head as this is my first 2WW - ever! 😂
