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 🤞🏼❤️

@Nic17 thank you I’m taking it as a no until there’s more positive line. But there’s hope. 🤞

@Hollycharlie I KNEW IT!!!! don’t ask why I just felt it when we were speaking omg!! Do another and don’t worry about the line strength, a positive is a positive. If you are concerned tho do one of the sensitive tests and line should be darker just don’t drink 10 teas, 50 bottles of water and a lemonade before 🤣 my first test was light and I haven’t done one since haha just going along with I’m pregnant period never came and I’m technically 5w today :) SO SO HAPPY FOR YOU xxxx

10/11dpo and a BFN, did have faintest of faint lines yesterday morning but stark negative so thinking indent. Due AF tomorrow and feeling crampy. On to next cycle I think. Good luck @Hollycharlie looking good !xx

@Jeragade123 sorry to hear! Don’t rule yourself out tho til AF comes :) I didn’t test positive til around 12 dpo or maybe longer - I was testing negative prior I’ve seen some people don’t test positive til 14 xx

@Nic17 how you getting on lovely xxx

@1111hope so far so good! Tests are now much darker so I think I'm ready to stop testing now 🥲 4+4 today and AF now definitely late. Not feeling too bad but very tired. How are you feeling? X

@Nic17 aww so happy for you! I’m still really sick with flu symptoms and super tired same as you! I’m 5w and suddenly I can’t touch my in-laws dogs cos their smell makes me want to vomit haha (even tho they’ve never smelt before) I’ve made my partner get me another test today as I haven’t done one since I tested positive which was last Saturday but shall do one tonight just because my (one and only 🤣) test was very faint and want to make sure it’s a bit darker now. I can’t lie though I’m anxious about doing it xx

Let us know how the test goes @1111hope, but everything sounds like it's going perfectly for you, so don't be worried! Will it be the same brand of test that you did last time? If not, just remember they can vary wildly!

@1111hope thank you so much . I hope you’re right. Still no show at all for af , dizzy , wee-ing and wind symptoms not letting up. I hope it’s a good sign. Got 2 Superdrug tests today so I’ll give one a whirl tomorrow see if it shows any colour. I’m just so cautious as so many people have blazing positives and my stupid home bargain cheapie was barely but we shall see. Good luck with your test tomorrow I’m sure yours will be blazing by now 🤩I will let you know how I go when I test too. Fingers crossed. Xxx

@Nic17 congrats fab news xx

@Hollycharlie @Nic17 This is my second test (as I get so anxious doing them after mmc last time). I couldn’t wait four hours to pee cos I’m peeing pretty much every hour at the minute haha! So this is about 1 hour 30 before my last pee it was the longest I could hold it and I almost peed myself no joke. My urine was very light and diluted, not strong at all. This lines ok right? I’m exactly 5w today based on my last period.

Posting the other photos in case as I’m stressing now

@1111hope these look perfect massive congratulations 🥳 xxx

@1111hope I know it’s so scary after having a mmc sorry this happened to you too. I was just so shocked at the time in August it’s really tainted going forward but let’s hope we all get our rainbows ❤️❤️🤞🤞🤞🤞xxxx

@Hollycharlie thank you!! I think to say how clear my urine was and how I had only waited 1.5 hours to pee again the line is ok I was just worrying! I pray you get a positive again tomorrow morning 🥰 xxx

@1111hope for such a diluted wee this is a fab line!!! Yay xxxx

@1111hope I will def update. Yes your was fab xxx

@Nic17 thanks honey!! xxx

@Hollycharlie looking forward to your update tomorrow 🤍

I’m really struggling with waiting finished ovulation on Friday been dtd on and off since Monday. I had my miscarriage just before Christmas I don’t no how I’m going to handle waiting to test. My boobs hurt very early on last time and I think they hurt now but I’m worried it’s my mind playing tricks on me.

@christmasmistletoe I'm sorry to hear about your mc. There's a few of us here that experienced loss so use us for company, the TWW is so damn tough.

@Hollycharlie praying for your positive update this morning 🙏🏻

@1111hope @Nic17 Morning girls, so I don’t know what’s going on still no period and the Superdrug test which I bought which were meant to be goo has a shadow of a second line so these tests are obviously detecting some hormones somewhere but not enough for where it should be at so I am no clearer on the way forward. What do I do? Xx

@Hollycharlie is it the Superdrug test with the purple on it? In my experience I found those tests didn't give me strong lines, even at 5weeks the line was very faint with my first pregnancy.

Are you able to get hold of a boots early detection test? Those ones are pink dye and very similar to FRERs.

Also, I know everyone is different, I find my tests around lunchtime/afternoon (after a strong hold) actually produce stronger lines for me than FMU. Got everything crossed for you xx

@Nic17 it was the standard 20ml 2 pack ones. I’ll post the pic. It’s so faint. I heard good things about them that’s why I picked them up then I read reviews on Superdrug website and they were terrible. Just don’t know what’s going on. I’ve accepted either way now anyway just want my period to come or have a definite positive. If it implanted late say 11/12 how long does the hcg take to be totally apparent? I do feel some symptoms that don’t seem to be going away so it’s very odd. With my mmc the tests were blazing until about 2-3 weeks later even on the cheapies. Do you think the boots early detection one is worth buying or just let it run its course. Not sure if I see the point if it’s not where it should be right now. 😭I didn’t ovulate until day 20 and I think I’m on cycle day 36 now . Does this make a difference? Thanks for your help xx

sorry pic attached very difficult to see but a shadow def there in person.

@Hollycharlie, I can see the line, 100%. There's definitely something there.

I wish I had better advice for you. I'm a manic tester so in your shoes I'd be holding & testing again today, but with my logical hat on the best thing for you to do is wait and see what the tests do over the next few days.

Late implantation coupled with HCG rising potentially only every 48/72 hours may just mean the tests take a bit longer for the line to show more strongly if things are progressing. In my experience testing this past week my tests are only darkening every 72 hours.

I really hope things turn out well. Xxxxx
