In the dreaded 2 week wait

[WishUponAStar4]

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 🙈

@WishUponAStar4 definitely a bit early, but we can't help ourselves.
I haven't, but I did think about it, but it might just mess with me 😂 have you?

@Mococo1 you could get a positive 9dpo but you can also get a false positive. What they say is to test on the day your period is due. I am too impatient for that. Give it another couple of days and try again 🙂 sometimes once is enough 🙂 good luck 😊

@jadiejade no I'm not either. Will just mess with my head 🙈🤣

@WishUponAStar4 who would have thought making babies would be so stressful 😂

@jadiejade I should proberly mention I am very lucky to have a little girl. She will be 1 in May. She was conceived straight after our wedding. No trying as such. So this time because we are 'trying' makes me stressed and overthink everything

@WishUponAStar4 oh that's so lovely, they would be so close in age and be best of friends if you are pregnant this time around.
I also have other children, I have been very blessed, and I was certain I was having no more. But since the loss last year, it's definitely made us think. I've tried to take a what will be will be approach, but that's a very difficult mindset to have.

This is making me feel better 😂 Thanks chat GPT

@WishUponAStar4 I definitely wont be using CB again complete waste of time and money for me!

My past 2 cycles have lengthened since taking folic acid (unless just coincidence) they do vary few days usually but this one is expected to be 35 days!!! according to when I ovulated which was much later this time. My luteal phase usually stays around 14/15 days. Are your cycles regular??

@jadiejade were the same! 8dpo on Friday too… I know I will probably test although I know far too early! Have you had any symptoms?

@Mococo1sorry to hear about BFN! Still very early tho so 🤞🏼 what makes you think you won’t fall pregnant? Did you try for long with your first baby?

So my symptoms today were just feeling damp like I needed to go to the toilet to wipe & then this evening bit of white CM in undies & white/creamy when wiped (sorry if TMI there’s no way to explain without sounding gross 🙈 ) .. anyone had anything similar?

@mummm2quite the opposite got pregnant straight away but had a few chemicals and got preg on birth control too...only have one child to show for it and finally ready to try again! Worried as im a lot older now but fingers crossed if i do get pregnant its a sticky bean

@Mococo1 aw sorry to hear about chemicals! And wow on birth control too you must be super fertile 🤭 How old is your child?

@mummm2that was my own fault, i missed two pills when a family member passed away and..then had a breakthrough bleed for 2 days and was meant to chuck the rest of the pills and start a new packet! I didnt and just kept popping pills and wound up pregnant and blamed period delay on overall stress- I have a soon to be 6yrold DD am a bit traumatised being pregnant so quite an age gap

Oh dear, yeah I bet that was a huge shock then and stressful for you! An age gap is lovely, I have two children 9 & 2 😊

I will most certainly be testing 😂 we can't not.
Nothing as of yet. Have you had any?

@jadiejade yeah I agree it's very hard to take a relaxed approach. It really kinda takes over doesnt it.

@Mococo1 I am weak. Good oul chat gbt 🤣 it is right though. You have time yet. Keep us updated 😊

@mummm2 I actually read some other posts that had those symptoms and got positives. I'm only 3dpo so if I have conceived it's not even implanted yet

@WishUponAStar4 how lovely to have a 1 year old! I have an almost 2 year old and it's making me really sad watching the age gap grow with every month I don't conceive.

I have never tested before 12dpo because I know I'll see a negative at 8dpo and immediately write the month off. But DP has been super invested since the MC and keeps asking what my ovulation sticks are doing and when I can test for pregnancy, so I don't know if I'll be able to hold off that long!

Same as you 9DPO today.

Had a bit of white stuff early on but since, it's completely the opposit, not sure I ever felt this dry.

It's the second cycle we properly try but we are 39 (me) and 41.

Do you think the early tests aren't good? We have a complete selection at home of brands and some early, some normal.

@Thomsonetthompson yeah I have always wanted them close in age. Hopefully it works out that way. 😊 there's still a nice gap between yours 😊 i got an early test with my first but I think I must have ovulated quite early. Got a positive opk and a very strong positive pregnancy 3 days later. The opk was obviously picking up on pregnancy.

Morning ladies. Feeling down today. Noticed bleeding whilst DTD last night had more when wiping before bed and then bit more this morning 😞 OPK higher this morning up to .65 & BBT stayed same as yesterday. Confused….!

@mummm2 could this be implantation bleeding ? I didn't have that with my first but alot of people get it. When is AF due ?

I had implantation with my 2nd but it was lighter pink at 8/9dpo. This was more bright red & then this morning there was a little clot & stringy bit (sorry far tmi) if I go by my normal LH phase 14 days AF will be due 8th

I’m 3 dpo iv tested already!🤣bfn I feel pregnant though which I know is rediculous. Sore boobs for a couple days and slight white cream discharge not loads just different to normal at this point in my cycle. Joining here because I’m driving myself mad.
