In the dreaded 2 week wait

Hello lovely ladies, wishing you all luck on your journey. Anybody else currently in the 2 week wait? It has to be the longest wait doesn't it? I am only 2 DPO and already want to test 😭. I know I will shortly start imagining symptoms now too 🙈

You’re so right! Im so in my head about it and seeing all these positive lines from others at like 8dpo , I just need to chill and see what happens in the next days!🤍

I’m the exact same! 11dpo, chose not to test today as I’m due tomorrow so I will wait and see and maybe test on Saturday if nothing changes.
I automatically assumed I was out because of the number of people who get faint lines at 8/9dpo, but I suppose it really is best to wait the full two weeks. Keeping hopeful for us all.

Itonlytakesone · 08/05/2025 10:21

@Ash2345f@Thomsonetthompsonoh I can see you both have line’s excellent! I’m 10dpo bfn… @WishUponAStar4are your lines getting any darker?

Totally!! I need to chill haha. According to my Flo, my period isn’t due until Monday so I keep telling myself I have a few more days for a positive to show up. Keeping my fingers crossed for us all getting what we want 🤞🏻❤️

Hello girls! Happy to share this infinite awaiting with all of you ❤️

Yesterday it was my 10 DPO. My period is due this Saturday (in 3 days). Yesterday I had cramps all the day, light brown spotting and nausea (without vomiting). I’m pretty sure that it was implantation spotting as my period comes with super heavy menstrual bleeding. This morning I took a digital CB test and it was negative. How is this possible? Did I take the test too early? Did anyone have a similar experience? How did it go at the end?
Grateful for all of your inputs!

10 days is still early. 😊
My easy at home are still very faint but my clearblue are getting more visible? So I'm still uneasy about it

I don't think the digital ones are great early on to be honest . I have lines at the minute ute on my tests but digital is saying not pregnant. Still makes me uneasy though 🙈

@WishUponAStar4 that 12dpo on the easy@home is definitely doubly dark than the 10dpo!

I caved and spent 25€ on an early clearblue because there's no way DP will believe the super faint line. I've only ever used cheapies so this feels like a big step, ridiculously.

Thomsonetthompson · 08/05/2025 11:51

@LadyPud if you only had implantation bleeding yesterday then you're probably just still too early! HCG is only picked up on any tests 2 days after implantation. Try again tomorrow or the next day!

I agree it's just thought they would be darker by now . With my first they lit up like a christmas tree 🤣

Oh ket us know how you get on 😊

@LadyPudhow have you lasted to 10dpo without us on here🤣. I’m 10dpo stomach cramps & tummy gurgling all night iv got all sorts of horrible symptoms. Iv googled it to be failed implantation. I definitely think something happened but just expecting af as normal it’s been a very tough tww for me my boobs have never hurt this much for so long I’m absolutely done in 🥹
@WishUponAStar4 looking stronger! You’re still not late yet so try not to panic (although I know it’s easier to say!) 🫠

@Itonlytakesone You can’t imagine how lonely I’ve felt these days, keeping all my doubts and questions to myself, afraid that if I speak it out loud, it won’t come true. It’s the first time that I’m dealing with pregnancy tests so I feel a bit overwhelmed and confused. Googling around I found this forum and I realized that I’m note alone in this crazy awaiting.

I don’t know what to think. I really feel something going on in my body that is completely different from what I have been experienced ordinarily. Fingers crossed for all of us!!!! 💪

At this point, I think I will test again between e tomorrow and Saturday. However, I’m noticing that my implantation bleeding are becoming heavier… I hope they won’t turn out to be my period! 😵‍💫

mummm2 · 08/05/2025 19:30

Hi Ladies!
@WishUponAStar4your lines are looking good!! @Ash2345f Can definitely see a line on yours, keep us updated if you can wait till Saturday ☺️

I’m 14dpo sore boobs, still having cramps. Had shadow line on easy@home yesterday & maybe this morning, but not really any colour to them so think evaps - although read within 3 mins!
FRER was bfn yesterday. So waiting for AF now.

Itonlytakesone · 09/05/2025 09:08

I’m out unfortunately af arrived today at 11dpo oh well least that explains all my symptoms were actually pmt. I did feel twinges as if ‘something’ happened this month but it was obviously not meant to be

mummm2 · 09/05/2025 10:03

Sorry to hear @Itonlytakesone AF also showed up for me today at 15dpo.

I ovulated late this cycle so it’s been a long one, but glad my LH phase stayed regular at 15.

Fingers crossed for everyone else waiting for their BFP this cycle 🤞🏼

Itonlytakesone · 09/05/2025 10:29

@mummm2 I’m sorry to you as well. It’s so tough isn’t it. I think I had a failed implantation and that’s why iv had af early. I definitely felt like ‘something’ happened this month. Just Upped my CoQ10 from 200mg daily to 400mg hoping for next cycle!

(Iv been on CoQ10 since my chemical in January and my periods have been heavier so I think it’s working. Also take a pre natal & vitamin D and b12 injections)

Ttcaftertfmr · 09/05/2025 10:43

Sorry to hear @Itonlytakesone and @mummm2 , hope you’re feeling ok and sending all the positive wishes for next cycle! 🤞🏻

I also had a bfn at 12dpo this morning so assuming I’m out. Af due on Monday so a tiny sliver of hope until then but looks like not my month this time around!

LadyPud · 09/05/2025 12:17

Sorry to hear that! We’ll be luckier next month 💪💪💪💪 Unfortunately, my AF arrived today (1 day earlier than expected) too. I was very shocked since I have never experienced all the cramps, the nausea and the brown bleeding right before AF. Do you think I had a failed implantation? At this point I don’t even know whether the brown bleedings were due to implantation as they last 2 days and then I had the AF straight away. What do you think?

Itonlytakesone · 09/05/2025 12:42

@LadyPudpossibly. I think it sounds like your body was working towards being pregnant but if no implantation your body naturally deals with, like there’s no point it waiting until Monday ( I was due af Monday too)

I know my body and on a normal month there’s no way I feel the way I did during that tww so something definitely happened.

im going to give it another go next time see if I can find a better egg

WishUponAStar4 · 09/05/2025 13:08

Sorry to hear that ladies. Wishing you all luck and sending baby dust yer way for the next cycle ❤️.

My lines are still quite light to be honest so just taking a test daily to see if they darken. My period should be due tomorrow so will just wait and see .

@mummm2 I feel your pain here! I am due tomorrow and can feel the aches, I no longer can tell if there is anything different from the months! This is harder than I thought it would be.

would you kindly tell me which coq10 you are taking?

thank you! 😊

DownWithCremeEggs · 09/05/2025 14:15

Hi all. CD14/ovulation day here! Going to try and hold off testing until day AF is due this cycle, not sure if I'm gonna stick to it 😆 AF isn't due until the 23rd which seems such a long way away! Argh 😆 it's also my birthday the week after. I wonder if I'll be able to celebrate with drinks or not 🤔😆

Oh I’m so sorry for you both. I am still testing very negative even on early detection (not even a flicker of an evap line) so although my period hasn’t shown up today yet, I am expecting it at any point.
Hope next month is kinder to us all.

I am definitely struggling with the process this month more than others, it’s exhausting.

Thomsonetthompson · 10/05/2025 05:29

So sorry to hear all the AFs showing up. It's absolutely heartbreaking to know you have to wait another month. Really hope you all get the news you want next month.

I got a definite line this morning so no more second guessing myself! DP bought me some roller skates for mother's day tomorrow and I had a feeling that would mean I'd get pregnant and couldn't use them.

Absolutely bricking it for another miscarriage now though - it's never actually happy news until the 12 week scan.

mummm2 · 10/05/2025 07:52

Thank you ladies, onto another cycle! My only silver lining is that at least I wouldn’t have 2 children with January birthdays 🤭. The shadows on the easy@home tests definitely got me thinking there was a chance I was going to be pregnant this month tho, even AI was saying could see a line.. for 3 days.. lesson learnt not to test before AF!? 🤦🏻‍♀️

@LadyPudi always get brown spotting the day / 2 days before AF so that’s a strong symptom for me that she’s going to appear.
Not to say that will be same for you!

@KKD90@TheNavyFatball@TtcaftertfmrI’m hoping AF stays away for you!!

@Thomsonetthompson congrats on the BFP! Sending you baby dust and positivity ✨

@WishUponAStar4 how are you feeling? Are you also doing digital alongside your line tests? Fingers crossed for a sticky little bean x

@Itonlytakesone that’s good keeping up the vitamins, all I’ve been taking is folic acid. I do have pregnacare but they seem to give me insomnia / vivid dreams if I take too late on an evening but they say take with main meal so I’m not sure. Have you had experience with them?
