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

Ahh that’s lush. He is my best pal, boyfriend & the loveliest person rolled into one & i’m so excited to have a little family with him.

Sounds like a plan!! :) xx

I always had congestion the day before my bfps! Fingers crossed

@JW24M ahhh I love that feeling! Hopefully our bfps are round the corner. I do believe what is meant to be will be xx

@SaltedPotato ah thank you for this! Did you get a running nose as well? I feel like I have a very very light cold, stuffy nose and it's running so much. No other symptoms at all. Weird! Hoping it's not just a coincidence

❤️❤️❤️❤️ 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

I remember going to bed at 9dpo thinking Iim gonna wake up with a full blown cold. Then I woke up 10dpo and got my positives. This has happened twice

@SaltedPotato oh I hope this comes true for me!! I shall test first thing and update xxx

I have everything crossed for us!! X

I’m now CD 29, 13 DPO. AF due in 2 days so waiting until I’m late to test.

Hope you get your two little lines 🤞🏽❤️

can’t lie ladies, I feel really emotional tonight and just sad that I don’t think this month is our month. Bought some extra boots tests and just did it and it was stark white with 1 line. Surrrely at 9dpo i’d have an inkling. I dont have congestion but did have a runny nose at 6dpo LOL not like it counts. I just want to be pregnant so badly and wish I could control it 😭😭😭😭 soz for being ‘that person’. I don’t want to speak to many family and friends about it yet xx

I totally hear you. I have been so emotional today too. Cried about wanting to be pregnant so badly too. It's so so so hard. 9dpo is still so early and most people don't get a positive until 14dpo so whilst you will see early testers getting those faint lines, that's not overly common. It will depend on if you have implanted or not and at what point you did or do. You can implant up to date 12 so you have plenty of time for a positive. I need to take my own advice as I am 9dpo and so upset seeing a negative test this morning too. Take care of yourself 💕

we are our own worst enemy’s aren’t we! I try and dish out so much positivity but don’t see it myself. I think i’ve been a dope because it’s my boyfriends birthday soon and I didn’t want to be un-prepared..
I bought things for becoming a day just incase thinking it would be successful so I can surprise him but now feel like i’ve jinxed it. I just still hope something is in there. big hugs xxxx

@JW24M oh babe you haven't jinxed it and you aren't out yet! I also did the same, I bought some cute things as I wanted to have it just incase I could tell him on or before we go on holiday. It's so disheartening I totally feel that today, but until AF comes we aren't out yet. Also it is very normal to implant day 10 and then it could take two days for enough hcg to rise in our body, that would mean we would get a positive at day 12. That's 3 days from where we are now. Xxxx

i wish I could give you a squeeze! You are so re-assuring. It’s just the waiting that has me 😭😭 but i’ll pull my big girl pants up tonight and try to get a grip - tomorrow is a new day. ❤️❤️❤️ I hope you get your dream before you go away xxxx

Hello everyone, I hope you don't mind me joining in. I'm currently 6dpo and it's been the longest wait ever. I took a test today and it was obviously negative. I don't know what I was expecting tbh 🤦. I have a 5 year old DD. Last time, I managed to wait until 13dpo this time around I'm struggling to wait. 😓

I took 2 Savers tests today at 8dpo. BFN obviously (plus the fact we almost certainly missed the right days this cycle...but I'm guessing I'm just hoping unrealistically that the swimmers from O-4 my have hung around for long enough 🤷‍♀️). I have one more savers test left and some One Steps arriving on Wednesday.

I've previously had positive FRERs at 10dop, possibly a proper proper squinter on a Boots test on 10dpo, but nothing on anything else before 11dpo....so quite why I torture myself at 8dpo is a mystery...

Oh girl!! I completely feel you, I’m 12DPO testing negative so feel out. I wish I had the self control to not test as I feel like I wouldn’t as negative. I think these forums actually encourage the early testing and just result in disappointment! My goal next cycle is to wait until 12DPO to test as my luteal phase is usually 12 days.

BUT 9DPO is still SO early! You still have every chance of getting your BFP! Keep your chin up, fingers crossed and you never know. I don’t think you would have a “feeling” as such just yet, as chances are your baby hasn’t implanted just yet!!

Completely get you reaching out on here too as I am 1st cycle TTC and don’t want to let my family and friends know at the moment! That is what this community is for! Sending love and you really do never know, you may be beaming ear to ear in a few days time looking at your BFP!

Thank you so much, also realised I meant to write my own thread not write on op’s, sorry, still trying to get the hang of this! Only ever read through them before (so many times to compare symptoms etc!) x

don’t even worry! There are lots of threads if you use the search bar too - hopefully you will have lots of replies posting your own xxx

Not at all! Bless your heart. Sending lots of love. Hoping you get your bfp in a few days time xx

And here I am torturing myself as I have done since 1dpo ffs 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣 i’m sure I kept writing ‘I won’t test now until 10-14 dpo’ what a fail that was xxx

Ahhh @KT199 I so needed to hear this tonight - thank you sweet!!

I so hope so. I hope it for us all! ❤️

if this isnt meant to be, I feel more prepared for cycle 2 so that’s positive ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you 🙏 Wishing you all the best as well xx

New cycle for me today ladies. Not a happy day but just have to push on and hope.
