I’m 3dpo, 4th month of trying for no2. im sat here with cramping and needing to wee more frequently than usual.
with my first I had symptoms from 2DPO and got a BFP at 9dpo.

anyone else in the long wait and want to join?

@Saramirez ah definitely look to maybe get one of the clearblue ultra early digitals. It's so reassuring to to see the word 'pregnant' and it worked at 10dpo for my last dc! But that line is pretty strong so I think a normal digital would likely work too.
@WhoOfWhoville it sounds so perfect for you to get a bfp this cycle, I have all my fingers crossed for you tomorrow morning!

I caved and took a cheapie this afternoon knowing it’d be a BFN at 8dpo and being 5pm wee but I couldn’t help myself.
I’ve felt sick all day, have tingly nipples and have been having day naps and falling asleep around 8pm

@Samthenanny I feel you! I couldn't help myself and took an early response this morning. I am likely about 8dpo or maybe eveness and it was stark white. I wish I hadn't taken it as it was so disheartening but we are still so early a negative doesn't mean we are out.

Hi everyone. Just joined and my first ever time posting. Im accidently in the middle of a 2WW after suspecting I MIGHT be pregnant. Have a 5 yr old and it would be lovely even if not planned. I havent been on any birth control for a long time and we have been using the withdrawel method successfully but something about the last week has made me suspicious and I have a feeling. Could be wildly wrong! I have always tracked my periods as a form of contraception but we got carried away twice around what I suspect was ovulation (although still used withdrawel method) so might be around 7dpo. Waiting to test to see if my gut feeling is correct and it has been driving me mad for days! Sorry for the essay and hi!

Samthenanny · 24/08/2024 19:55

@Loudandclear its so hard isn’t it. same here I felt a bit deflated.
exactly we are not out yet by any means.
with my little boy I remember testing at 8dpo and got a bfn then at 10dpo got a bfp.
when I you test next?

I'm going to wait until Monday now as I only have standard sensitivity ones left and I know they wouldn't pick anything up tomorrow but perhaps I'd have a chance at 10dpo. How about you? I got a bfp on a frer and clearblue ultra early digital with my second DC at 9dpo so tomorrow is possible but only with the right tests and luck I think! Fingers crossed for us both!

Hi all hope you don’t mind me joining in! Currently 3dpo trying for my second baby and symptom spotting already!😂 I forgot how bad the two week wait was! Hoping for positive outcomes for you all🥰🥰

Hey. I have been symptom spotting too which is what has led me to think it could be a happy accident this month. Havent been actively trying yet. I know they say its too early for symptoms but something is just telling me I am. It always feels like such a long wait, I forgot how torturous it is since my first was a while ago now.

Loudandclear · 25/08/2024 19:38

Wishing you all a huge amount of luck! The two week wait is so life consuming.

I was emptying our bathroom bin today and the early test I took yesterday morning was there with a very dull second faint line on it (there was absolutely nothing to see even an hour after I tested as I had checked before throwing it). I've just bought a clear blue early digital which has come back as pregnant (8 or 9 dpo today). We have a long way to go before a baby is here with us but we are so lucky, wishing you all the same baby dust and giving you hope that firstly you can conceive when dtd only one time in your cycle (it was 2 days before peak lh so probably 2 or 3 days before ov), and secondly that not all digitals need you to wait until a missed period!

Ahhhhhh this is exciting! Congratulations 💞 I've tested this morning at 9dpo and think I can see a glimmer of a line. Might see if I can get an early digital for a few days time x

Loudandclear · 26/08/2024 08:55

Aah congratulations @Dullblue1234!

Dullblue1234 · 26/08/2024 09:04

@loudandclear it's very faint, so tentative at the mo! But thank you 💞

loveyababesx · 26/08/2024 09:57

Hi can I join please!

Driving my self mad with the TWW. I got pregnancy accidentally with my first so this is all new for me. I actually only DTD once 3 days before ovulation so I think that it's highly unlikely for me this month, but I've had strange cramps the past few days that make me feel like I'm about to come on my period (due on tomoz) I don't think I usually get that, but I never look out for the symptoms and it's only my first month trying. I'm also so tired I feel asleep in the middle of the day yesterday

Camia · 26/08/2024 16:05

Hi, can I join? I'm 8dpo on our second cycle TTC. I'm trying not to symptom spot but it's so hard! I'm overthinking everything. The last couple days I've had sore nipples and not much appetite, so I'm hoping that means something but who knows. Currently debating how long to hold out before testing.

Hi, im about 8dpo also (not 100% sure as didnt track this cycle but I am very regular) and caved with a stark white BFN this morning and wish I hadnt. Even though we are NPNT at the moment, a bit of me was sad as would love a second child. Ive got lots of symptoms but I know its still really really early to know for sure!

mumzy67 · 27/08/2024 06:05

Hi all, thought I was out!! Took a test Saturday that was negative but not song of period on Sunday when due, still no signs and I've been having cramping which I normally only get when I'm bleeding so thought well if no spotting or signs of period this morning I'd do another test and it's positive 🥳 proves you are not out straight away ladies - good luck to you all 😊

Anyone else on the long 2WW?

Dullblue1234 · 27/08/2024 07:38

Ahh congrats @ljb23 @mumzy67 💕

mumzy67 · 27/08/2024 07:49

@Dullblue1234 thank you 😊 ooh I see a line!!!! 🥳 congrats to you too x

PennysBoat · 27/08/2024 09:46

Congratulations! Look at all those lovely positive lines! I had another BFN today with fmu. Gonna wait a while now before any more testing, still early days to know for sure.

Loudandclear · 27/08/2024 12:43

Wow look at all those bfps! Huge congratulations to you all, and all the luck for those still waiting xx

Daisyoopsies · 27/08/2024 16:33

Congratulation everyone! I'm 5dpo and I've noticed that I'm incredibly weepy and emotional today. It's too early for me to be PMS so wondering if anyone with a BFP experienced this maybe? I'm never usually this weepy this far out for AF but at the same time I know it's too early for implantation 🤔 so unlikely to be hormonal changes yet.

Camia · 27/08/2024 18:08

Congratulations everyone! I'm really tempted to test tomorrow which will be 10dpo but I know a BFN would just make me obsess over whether it was too early or not until my period is due so might be better to make myself wait. I'm just so impatient 😅

Samthenanny · 28/08/2024 14:12

Congratulations to all the BFP 😊

im due my period today as of yet no sign. I tested with cheapies 8, 9 & 10dpo but all negative.
I’ve awful tingly boobs, headache, sicky feeling so will wait a couple of days to see if AF turns up
