Two week wait ladies, you there?

[JW24M]

I am 5DPO today. First proper cycle of trying to conceive.

I know we’re not likely to feel any symptoms yet, but id anyone else hyper focused on every twinge or movement? I swear I woke up in the night with really sore b0.obs but now they don’t feel too bad - last night they were super veiny and looked diff.
I’m presuming this is just post-ovulation symptoms.

I don’t want to overthink and get myself stressed but so hoping something is going on. I hope i’ll know more in a few days.. and I know how rare/lucky it is to catch first time.

Just wanted to open up a thread for us all waiting! :) xx

@JW24M ah that’s so sweet of you too, thank you. I equally echo what I previously said to KT199; each persons circumstances are so different. If it’s difficult for you, that’s completely fair enough. If it’s not… equally fine too. Your journey, your feelings. You are absolutely allowed to feel what you feel. TTC is difficult regardless of where you are in your journey 💕

Appreciate that ❤️

may of been a bit silly and did a test today. I knew deep down it was pointless, didn’t stop me though. Ordered some first response tests yes that came today - ready for a few days time. Unsure if I mentioned anywhere but had an ultrasound on my tummy today - stemmed from having a hard lump on my tum and being late on period. Doc wanted to rule out any issues. Went to ultrasound dept and waiting surrounded by three ladies downing water and being asked if they were ready for their scans all smiley. Walls littered with posters about charges for scan photos, and how they can't mark the gender on paper etc.
I kept trying to put it out to the universe i’d love to be back in that room soon for a different reason than why I was there. I’d love it to be a full circle moment. I felt so excited for those ladies in there. xx

Sorry about how random that was - kind of blurted out everything in one 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️😂😂

Got my fingers crossed for you girl!! Really hope you you get your BFP 🫶.

I’m in for my blood tests tomorrow, should know by start of next week where we stand for both of us, hoping for some reassurance.

Thank you ❤️

ahh that’s good - I bet you’re a bag of emotions xx

Well ladies, not sure what's going on with my post ovulation temperatures, I ovulated and got a sustained temperature rise. Then, yesterday, at 11 dpo it went down slightly. Dont think it was an implantation dip because it was only slight and I had a bit of cramping at 7 doo and suspected that would have been implantation if it had happened at all. Today p, at 12 dpo, my temperature is up again by 0.8 which seems quite a rise as AF is due Friday or Saturday. I am not getting too excited and am expecting a big drop tomorrow at 13 doo. I have no symptoms of pregnancy and feel more likexAF will come but I have less AF symptoms than last month. Will test on Saturday if temp still up.

Goodness me that is confusing!! Hoping for a BFP for you! Xx

Did you have a lot to drink last night? Back when I used to temp I would always get spikes after a night out.

I'm out again for this month. Yesterday I got a BFN on a Boots test at around 11dpo. I imagine AF will rock up tomorrow (unless I ovulated late in which case who knows...)

Thank you. It is a bit, so typical of me to have end of cycle confusion 🤣. Temp this morning down but only by 0.1 so still higher than it was. Very, very Hungry and a bit spottier than usual. Nothing else whatsoever though. Not even sore nipples this month.

No, not much of a drinker anyway tbh 😁. Temp still higher than I would expect but I am absolutely not assuming it will be good news. Like so many of us, I’ve been stung before!!

For you, you never know. Sounds like a cliche, I know, but 11 dpo is still early. Depends on implantation timing. Days 8 and 9 are most common for this and with it taking a few days for HCG to build up….
Fingers crossed for all

I realised i’m only 3DPO this morn. I think its because of my random LH/BBT spikes. Be interesting to see which was accurate in terms of AF arriving if it does. Feel like its all over the shop this month lol! Temp is going up. I dont have any breast pain yet which is unusual after ovulation for me Xx

@Carportforme oooh (whispers) potential there for a triphasal chart?! 🤔

I am so much crossing my fingers for you. It goes past so d so slowly when you’re waiting!!

Thank you. Im hoping either way, I can be in a bit more of a flow next month as i’ll be able to do everything from the off, rather than forget lh one day. Do temp wrong time the next etc xx

I will just have to be patient and hopeful. I don’t want to be too hopeful. I always feel so awful on months when I am hopeful and it’s a no x

How are things going? Have you dared test? X

Hi KT199, goodness, sometimes I forget to check my notifications. Yes, got a very, very light shadow with a hint of pink and a cheaply with a faint line on Thursday evening. On Friday I had some pink CM when I wiped and thought AF was going to show. I also started to have weird cramps twinges. I ordered a CB digital but I wont have it till Monday so I ordered another couple of RFER early tests, tBH, I'm not greatly keen on RFER. I find their lines are a bit skinny ;). Anyway, I did another cheaply on Fruday morning which was a bit darker but still not conclusive. Then, this morning I got the result below on RFER.
Finding the timeline of it all a bit weird because I had my static smiley and positive cheaply OKP 14 days ago yesterday and since the implantation window is 6-12 dop at tge most I am thinking that I may have had a second surge or I ovulated at the far end of the surge.
Praying for progress and that this one will stick in the first instance and not go chemical and not shock me with an MMC like the first one did!
Sore boobs today but no nausia yet.

It's a lot more pink in reality :)

Ahhhh fab news!! Fingers crossed everything progresses 🤞 congratulations!

Thank you. I'm not testing any more as I find it too stressful but the nausia has already kicked in! X

Oooh gentle congratulations there @Carportforme - I know these first few weeks are nerve wracking but I've got everything crossed for you.

Thank you. I have had a little progression today, pic below but not a lot. I am panicking a little to be honest but we will see. I am also wondering whether maybe we had a second surge. My temperature chart definitely indicated ovulation on the 27th but this would mean that the official implantation window Closed on Wednesday last week and I had implantation symptoms on Friday and Saturday morning so I’m thinking did it start on Thursday and therefore I got a very very faint test on Thursday and then complete over Friday and Saturday. Guess I will find out soon enough.

How are you getting on @JW24M ?

Fingers crossed for you! I know you’ve used the CB advanced like me, and I’m sure it jumps the gun in terms of fertile window as mine turned to static on CD13, I got my “peak” LH test on CD15 and the ovu confirmed via BBT on CD17.. so I think it is possible ovulation occurs abit later than the clear blue suggests sometimes

Thank you. I hope so. I will update when I know more x
