Two week wait

So I feel like I’m going crazy with the two week wait now happening!. Had a miscarriage November 2nd, had my first cycle 21st nov. I ovulated this week just passed so should be 4/5 dpo.. I know it’s too soon to test but have a strong urge to know if I’m pregnant already!. Anyone else going through this would be good to talk to

17nic · 09/12/2023 19:17

Snap! I'm on cycle 9 of ttc #1...AF due on 22nd and I think 3dpo today. Its so hard to distract yourself every month isn't it? 🙈

I’m due af on the 19th feels like such a long time away. Feel like I’m starting to imagine the tenders vreasts again everyday and constantly question if I’m having any symptoms which again I know it’s probably too soon for that! I need a distraction lol

Symptom spotting is the absolute worst! I must admit to getting worried now as me and DH haven't had the faintest hint of a BFP yet but there we go. I think being close to Christmas makes things trickier too!

Tiffany88 · 10/12/2023 07:37

@17nic I do agree I think symptom spotting is awful consumes your thoughts I think being Christmas is a positive as I am pretty busy now until Christmas but I know if I'm not pregnant January will be 10x worse I'm really hoping this month is the month but I'm just not feeling it :(

Hi ladies
I'm 9 or 10DPO trying for baby #2. Told myself I wouldn't test early but I did the cheapies the last couple of days so now I've thrown the rest of them away so I can't do anymore!! I just hate being in this limbo land. I think I'll be fine if it doesn't happen this month but I just hate not knowing!

Jenn12445 · 10/12/2023 15:54

I’m the same!. Trying to promise myself not to go buy anymore cheap ones, just wasting my money cause I know it will be a bfn!.. had a headache all day yesterday and was getting like a pulling feeling on my left lower abdomen last night and today slight cramping in my back, back to thinking these are all symptoms 🙈

Hope you don’t mind me joining to OP! I’m between 8-9DPO, I took a more relaxed approach this month and only tested my LH sat as got EWCM the day before and got my peak. I have got the Proov Pdg tests and the last 3 days have been positive to confirm my progesterone is high which is good news :)

I had a MMC that lasted from June-Aug so praying for a Christmas miracle 💕

when is everyone testing? I did one yesterday BFN and today I swear I can see a faint line but not getting excited as it could be an evap lol

aleigh8 · 11/12/2023 11:18

Oh we are due the same day lol!. I’m thinking of testing on Sunday, because I think right now would be too early, have you noticed any symptoms at all?

fingers crossed for your wee miracle ❤️

Hi all, hope you don’t mind me jumping on this thread! I’m 4 or 5dpo, unfortunately due on af just before xmas, so really hoping for a xmas miracle! 🤞 My DH has 3 siblings, 2 of whom already have children and one who just announced her pregnancy at the weekend so am going to find the Xmas period particularly tricky this year!

aleigh8 · 11/12/2023 20:39

@Jenn12445 hopefully the 19th is our lucky number 🙏!! I have the usual winter cold at the moment so hopefully that doesn't ruin my chances! What tests are you using? I've got wondfo as they have been pretty accurate before and I've been reading first response are so hard to get hold of

Jenn12445 · 11/12/2023 21:07

I hope it is!. Im just scared of getting my hopes up to be disappointed. So scary!.. I’ve just bought cheap ones. I used frer last time but had to order them online and took a few days to come. I also used clear blue early digital one last time and that was good, I’m sure I’ve used Asdaown make early tests and they said positive too.. I think the ones I’ve got just now are not for early testing!. Have u done any tests ?

Longtobe2023 · 11/12/2023 22:09

@Jenn12445 my AF is also due on the 19th! I’ve been getting constant lower back ache and cramps today, must of had about 12 wees since 1pm too! and the odd sharp pain in my left boob?

I tested again this evening and can see a shadow of a line, really trying my best to not get my hopes up but I can’t wait to go to sleep so I can check again tomorrow lol I wish I had your willpower!

Jenn12445 · 11/12/2023 23:09

Yeh I’ve had the back cramps today also!. Had it the past couple of days, but it’s there more today. I really wish u get a clearer line!.. I think my mind plays tricks on me and I start imagining a line there. X

Hello! I hope u don’t mind me joining too :) I’m two days past ovulation due af on 24dec. Hoping for a Christmas miracle. I have vaginismus so conception is particularly difficult. We gave it our best shot so now nothing to do but wait. Baby dust to you all!

Longtobe2023 · 12/12/2023 06:31

@Jenn12445 i ended up waking up and all I could think about was testing haha! So I’ve done it and the line is darker than yesterday but it’s still such a squinter with being 9/10dpo!! Can you see it or am I going crazy lol

my back ache feels better now I’ve stretched out in bed all night so hope yours does too!

Two week wait
LittleMrsPretty · 12/12/2023 06:36

Hi All

Im due AF on the 19th too but I wont test until a couple of days after as I hate the disappointment of a negative test. (However need to edit my xmas online shop on Weds so will probably end up testing then, as I need to know if I can drink the alcohol or eat the blue cheese)

December marks a year since we TTC for No2 and I had a MC in June so also the month my baby would have been due. I was hoping to be pregnant by my due date to soften the blow but still crossing everything for this month.

Longtobe2023 · 12/12/2023 06:38

@LittleMrsPretty i completely get where your coming from! I also had a MMC in June and my due date was 16/01/24 so I found myself getting very upset knowing that time was coming round! Fingers crossed you get your Christmas miracle x

Jenn12445 · 12/12/2023 18:01

I can see a line on that! I gave in and bought a clear blue early test.. and I can see a slight shadow. Going to try and not do a test again till Friday, fingers crossed! My back ache has been fine all day but then gets to this time of the day and I feel like I can feel it coming back! Crazy lol x

OP posts:
Longtobe2023 · 12/12/2023 18:06

@Jenn12445 oooh exciting!! Let’s hope we both end up with some nice solid pink lines by the end of the week!

my back hasn’t been aching today but I’ve been so busy so I’ve just probably not thought too much about it, still got slight cramps though but nothing as bad as it’s been

Jenn12445 · 12/12/2023 23:32

Yeh fingers crossed we both get the solid lines! Fingers crossed! ❤️

Fingers crossed for you all 💕 I took a test this morning and BFN 😢hoping it may just be a bit too early but I'm probably out this month I've not noticed any symptoms 🙈

Longtobe2023 · 13/12/2023 13:08

@Jenn12445 i bit the bullet and tested again and got my 1-2 weeks on a digital! Keeping my fingers tightly crossed for you on Friday x

@aleigh8 so sorry to hear that lovely! It doesn’t get any easier seeing that BFN does it. What DPO are you?
