2WW - How are we all feeling?

[Bb542]

Who else is in the 2WW currently? How many dpo are you? What symptoms do you have? How do we make time go faster?🤣

Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🏼❤️

Only 6dpo for me, I usually start testing on day 7 but really want to hold out a little longer!

Had strong ovulation pains this month and slight spotting. Boobs are tender now.

Im 43 so not sure it’ll ever happen for me now, but we are keeping our fingers crossed.

So lovely to see some bfps on here ❤️

Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼❤️

AF has arrived properly today. I knew I wasn't pregnant so I'm just happy I can officially start the next cycle. Hopefully I'll have an October baby 🥰

@Bb542 I'm glad you can finally focus on your next cycle 💞

My test today I think is the same as yesterday. I was worried it was a little lighter but think my eyes were playing tricks - yesterday is top and today bottom. Hoping to see some line progression tomorrow. Xxx

I’m also 6/7dpo, no symptoms but shorting pain in vagina sorry TMI. Have a feeling this isn’t my month though. Good luck sounds like you have some good indicators

@Nic17 try not wind yourself up with testing too much and everyday cos your hormones double every 48 hours and i was reading different brands give different strength lines also some people never get a really strong line and go on to have successful pregnancies. Maybe it’s me as I’m too paranoid to test again and wind myself up analysing. I haven’t tested since Saturday when I tested positive and I’m 2 days late for my AF now so I know I’m pregnant - I might take one more test but let’s see I just want this 6w scan 😞

@Bb542 praying for ur next cycle don’t forget the magnesium :) 🤍 also did u recently come off any contraception? Even tho I had periods it took me 3/4 months to get pregnant after mini pill

@Jeragade123 shooting pain omg!! I’ve had that last time I was pregnant before I tested positive and this time!! Good luck!!

@1111hope thank you so much, you're so right. I remember when I got my positive the first time back in June I didn't test again and I need to channel some of that chill back into my life!

@1111hope oh really well you never know. I don’t know why I feel so negative just trying to not get my hopes up. AF due on Sunday so going to wait it out till Friday I think xx

@Nic17 they're great lines 🥰 try not to work yourself up too much testing... but I totally understand how hard it must be. I think I'd be testing every day too.

@1111hope Oooh interesting, should I be taking magnesium? I'm currently only taking folic acid and vitamin D. I'll try magnesium too.
No I'm off the pill over a year now. We haven't been using any protection but were just being careful around the times I knew I was ovulating. December was our first month trying and thinking back, we probably should've DTD a bit more and maybe after my LH surge too. I have this fear that there is something wrong with one of us and we won't know for ages but hopefully next month is our month 🥰

@Nic17 i feel like it’s sent you one way and me the other way 🤣 im too scared to test again incase there’s no line or it’s super faint meaning a miscarriage is coming and you’re testing everyday to check the progression 😭 it shouldn’t be this stressful should it 😞😞😞 really pray we get our rainbow babies 🤍🤍🤍

@Bb542 yess my mums friend i can’t remember which country she’s from but they all take it there when trying to get pregnant it helps it stick :) worth a shot! And definitely just do it as much as possible the whole month 🤣🤣

@Jeragade123 Friday is a good day :) I tested 4 days before AF and negative then 2 days before and positive :) but last time I tested 5/6 days before and got positive but that did end in miscarriage so I’m thinking hopefully this time it means better that it took lo my er to show xx

@1111hope aw good luck I’m sure this will be good sticky one !xx

How’s everyone feeling this eve? Went to docs with my flu symptoms today and got to stay at home for next few days and rest! Hate the cramps I keep getting too they’re very light and know they are common just can’t help panicking about a miscarriage again!! Anyone else that’s tested positive got those mini cramps they come on and off again??

Yes I'm getting lots of crampy twinges today too and got a positive. 12dpo today and I'm constantly worried about another chemical

@1111hope @SC126 so these cramps are the tiny little twinges that come and go on either side of your ovaries ? I’m felling absolutely fine but have a few things different this month to last few. These, plus last day or so tiny bit dizzy, higher temperature and very very slight sickly that really passed within seconds. I’m 11 dpo. Month 4 after a mmc . Did the Smep this month. Said it was my last shot at it so maybe I’m more sensitive to what’s going on. 🙈

@1111hope @SC126 I'm also having the odd cramp / tugging sensation but I do think that can be very normal 🤞🏻

@Hollycharlie got my fingers crossed for you! Have you tested or still holding off?

@Nic17 thank you ❤️nope not tested trying to hold out till Friday to have hopefully no period show….. I don’t want to look at a blank white bfn at least if af shows I’ll not have both disappointments 🙈

@Hollycharlie you are so strong 🙏🏻

I feel like a ball of anxiety today. Have spent the last few hours absolutely convinced I'm about to start bleeding. Going to snuggle up on the sofa for the evening and try to distract myself xxx

@Nic17 oh no :(, put something on I’ve spent the day working from bed & watching The Hills as they’ve put it on Netflix and used to love watching it when I was younger! Something nostalgic and lots of snuggles! Hope you’re ok - must admit when I get those tugging sensations I start panicking too but all is good so far xxx

@Hollycharlie let us know the outcome praying for you!! Xx

Hi everyone. Just read through the entire thread. Im 4 or 5dpo. Very crampy, but trying not to over think it

@siobhanmt247 hey, I’m 7/8 dpo started cramping today feeling very period like so think jm
out. Due any day from Friday-Sunday have a 26-28 day cycle. Symptom spotting is driving me crazy 😅 xx

@Jeragade123 this is for my second baby. I had loads of cramping with my first so you might not be. Mine are sharper than period cramps, sometimes shooting

@1111hope @Nic17 thank you girls. Hope you’re both ok, I know how scary it must feel. Just relax and look after yourselves, take everything very easy. I think next time if I am I will be looking after myself much better, I didn’t find out until 6 weeks last time as it was unplanned and I’d had many big nights out, kept going to the gym until I found out I lost the baby at 12 weeks. Had the odd glass of red so was very naive to what could happen as I had a perfect pregnancy 8 yrs previous. I will for sure keep you posted. Nearing the end of day 12, had very small twinges again today, which is totally out of character and small bouts of dizziness on and off. Not been that tired or sore boobs so that’s concerning but I’m sure I’ll know either way the next few days. 🤞

@Hollycharlie thanks honey, I’m 4w 4d and I don’t rly have sore boobs sometimes my nipples hurt in the shower 🤣 feels prickly haha but other than that i am defo dizzy twinges discharge tired and sick so my immune system has gone down oh and I’m constipated haha! I must admit I tested last Thurs and was negative so I went out on a wild one Friday been feeling guilty since! Saturday I felt hungover but a different hungover wasn’t late for my period yet but something told me to test and was positive :( thing is last time I was super careful and did everything right and miscarried - I’m doing everything right since Saturday but trying not to worry too much plus it was only 4w. Really hope it sticks this time!! I was thinking once I’m better I want to go to the gym but I read bad stories but some fine it’s so hard to know. So sorry about your loss 😞 don’t beat yourself up tho I know people that do good things from beginning to end and they miscarry and people who do things they definitely shouldn’t all way through pregnancy and deliver a healthy baby xx
