Who else is in the dread 2ww, awaiting to find out id December will deliver 2 lines on the stick?

Thought I'd make a December thread to hopefully share stories, the good and the bad! Good luck everyone for December!

2-4dpo - woke up to bad lower back pain, it woke me up a few times in the night and I was cramping like period cramps all morning and then on and off towards the evening (this is odd for me as I never cramp unless I'm actually in full flow) feeling bloated.

3-5dpo - cramping like I would if I was on my period, very Gassy. Lower back pain, Boobs feel sensitive behind my nipples. Really hungry

4-6dpo, alot less cramping today, very Gassy, loose bowel movements, absolutely starving today. Lower back pain, Boobs seem more sensitive today - bfn, super early...I know

5-7dpo. Very Gassy(smelly) , twinges in my uterus area, very mild cramping. I feel very bloated today, starting craving a hot curry late at night which is abit weird considering I don't like hot curry's, I find tikka as hot as I can manage but I wanted SPICE
Headaches towards the evening which I don't often get.

6-8dpo - very tired today, Lower pain back still, headache, absolutely starving, still craving hot curry made a chilli bean curry at 11am to satisfy my curry need
Started cleaning my kitchen cupboards but ended up on the sofa with a headache.....had a 2 hour nap (oops) woke up starving again
Started getting period like cramps again, also😂 I sneezed and I thought I'd blew out the right hand side of my abdominal wall...it was very sharp like a stretching feeling? I have had a c-section 8 years ago and it kind of feels abit like when you move too fast in the first few months (does that make sense?)

I've been ttc for 6 years now....I'm hopeful but scared as that I'm obsessing over symptoms! I've ordered 10 cheapies from amazon which are arriving tomorrow....when should I test??🤔

Hi ladies, I am too scared to test again but the period cramps are there constantly and woke up this am with a very sore back. Also incredibly loose stools. I am due on Thursday so time will tell soon enough!! @Whisperdoodle1 I see lots of lines!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS !!! How you feeling
@SazzyBa and @MrsScotland

@praying4babba I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, I really hope this month is your month!

I don't know if it helps but I've had a very sore lower back and since ovulation and my stools have been loose too, although they say constipation is more common in early pregnancy?

I hate this 2 week wait! x

Ladies....Approx 12-14DPO..

More confused than ever this cycle....
period cramps and lower back pain today, probably going to start my AF today I reckon - I've mentioned it before but I don't tend to get period cramps unless im actively bleeding.
skin is surprisingly clear...
still got tender boobs but they're definitely not hurting as much as a week ago!

so far, in-between a couple of negatives I've got...half a line...2 lines...

annndddd today's beauty...WHAT IS THAT!?
3 LINES!? ones definitely pink..but it seems too far away from the control line.

never in my life have I had such a weird run with pregnancy tests, I've done many tests...but never had a month like it!

after 10 mins the results completed faded to nothing!
Now...I did find another user online who had a very similar test and she ended up being pregnant in the end...

more confused than ever.

Well, I was scheduled my smear test yesterday, but I explained everything to her, showed her the 3 tests and she said she wasn't comfortable doing my smear and has rescheduled it for next week.

She did however test me there and then and it was BFN, I also tested this morning with 2 brands - also BFN...no idea whats going on. I have period cramps but not bleeding....

OP posts:
SazzyBa · 05/12/2023 16:50

Period was due today...No sign on it..had quite intense period cramps earlier, was certain I had came on...but I haven't....YET

hows everyone else doing?

Hi ladies, hope I can join. I started a threat this morning but stumbled upon this one now 😊

I tested this morning 3 days before my period was due and I saw a faint line 2nd line. Couldn’t believe it so I went out just now to buy a digital test and eeeeekkkk

Omg @SazzyBa this has been the wildest TWW ever! What is going on with every brand of test!

TTCnothree · 05/12/2023 18:42

Same as you @SazzyBa lower backache, had cramps and been feeling a little sick. Tested the other day (the pic I posted) which was the vvvfl but tested earlier and got bfn (wasn't fmu) cd26 and 12dpo.
Due AF on Friday.
Feel like I'm constantly symptom spotting haha..

Woohooo!! Congrats @Olivia2019 amazing news!!

@overthinkersanonnymus You're actually telling me...Never in my life had I had 3 tests like this, let alone in one month...A test with 3 lines...honestly I have to laugh!

I'm having alot of cramping/stretching/tugging going on down below, still no period...I'm not going to test for a few days now because I'm scared im going to get 5 lines next!! I wouldn't care but the 2 pink dyes all showed up within the reading window/straight away. but I've been having lots of stuff happening from around 4dpo so....surely IF there was anyway in gods earth I was pregnant it would surely be a blazing positive by now.....

@TTCnothree The lower back ache is STILL there...I don't normally have lower back pain, but here I am...from 4dpo to now...still got it, still having BFN's between the other crazy tests....how're you getting on? its sooooo hard to not symptom spot though, I feel like im making it all up!! x

SazzyBa · 05/12/2023 20:41

AHHHH LADIES...I AM OUT!

just wiped and my cm is changing colour, deffo the old witch turning up!

What a strange month 😂
Kinda relieved in a strange way because I felt like I was left in limbo wondering what my body was actually doing...

As for all my test results...WTF? I'm going to promise myself to not test until im LATE by like a few days because I've driven myself insane these last few weeks!!
I have no idea what all the symptoms where I've been experiencing but I know one things for sure....I'm not going to be as obsessed next time...maybe...possibly 😂

Just an update.
AF due today, no signs as yet.
Did test yesterday after the vvvfl the other day and got a BFN yesterday morning so think I'm out this month.

How's everyone else getting on?

MrsScotland · 08/12/2023 10:41

I'm out. Have had two days of there being a little bit of pink/brown on wiping so I even did a test last night but no, it was just my period slowly arriving and here it is this morning. Bang on 28 days though so that's a good cycle.

TTCnothree · 09/12/2023 20:47

So AF was due yesterday, no sign as yet.
BFN on a cheapo test last night.
Today been feeling nauseous, headache.
Had McDonald's burger for dinner and then proceeded to throw it back up (tmi sorry)

With my first 2 was a massive thing all through both pregnancy's that beef made me sick. 🤢
Feel like I'm just going crazy at the minute and wondering if I should retest in the morning with FMU with a clear blue digital.
Help lol. What to do, wait or test tomorrow ?

Have you tested again since @TTCnothree ?? x

@MrsScotland Did you come on? x

TTCnothree · 11/12/2023 17:42

@SazzyBa I tested yesterday with a clear blue digital and got bfn 😩
Still no signs of AF- 3 days late x

Dixon0389 · 11/12/2023 17:45

Hi I'm wondering if I can join our first month of ttc baby 3, I don't really track ovulation ect just because I don't want to stress myself out and I'm inpatient but AF is due around the 22nd

SazzyBa · 11/12/2023 17:49

TTCnothree · 11/12/2023 17:42

@SazzyBa I tested yesterday with a clear blue digital and got bfn 😩

Ahhh..when did you last test with the strip tests? I've seen LOADS of people get a BFN on a digital but a BFP on the strips, the digis aren't as sensitive! try a strip test!!?

@Dixon0389 absolutely you can join! I'm not pregnant this month, but obviously going again for next month! :D Its probably a really good idea not to track ovulation, I wish I didn't but I have strong ovulation symptoms so I always know anyways!

Dixon0389 · 11/12/2023 18:04

Thank you I am using flo just to keep an eye on roughly when I will ovulate but not being obsessed it says I was due to ovulate Friday but DH was poorly so only managed to DTD Monday, Tuesday and last night so not sure if that is enough 🤷

Lovelylove4 · 11/12/2023 22:10

Hi ladies! Can I join in on the thread? @Dixon0389 my AF is due the 23rd.
This is my 4th month ttc baby #2, I’m really hoping this is the month. This month I’ve been drinking a lot of water, eating a clove of garlic daily (stopped before my ovulation week) taking prenatals, and taking maca root. My husband and I dtd almost everyday during my ovulation week so I’m really hoping this is the month I conceived.

Dixon0389 · 11/12/2023 22:13

Hi @Lovelylove4 we are both in the 2ww then I have a feeling this may go slow although with 2 other kids and my dd birthday being on Xmas day I have plenty to keep me busy 😂😂

Lovelylove4 · 11/12/2023 22:25

@Dixon0389 Haha yes the 2ww always seems to drag!

So far I have had no symptoms other than my ovulation cramps, but honestly I’m not trying to keep track of symptoms bc these past few months I thought I was having pregnancy symptoms then AF showed up 🙄 so I guess my premenstrual symptoms are the same as pregnancy symptoms.

I’ll keep you all updated!

I’m going to try my best not to test too early lol
