Anyone just started their dreaded 2WW ? 👀👋🏼

[WF1990]

Morning girls, that’s it really, looking for 2WW buddies to get through the longest part of the ttc cycles !
I’m 1DPO, cycle 8 for a first baby 🤞🏼

Haha thanks! I’ve heard good things so figured it couldn’t hurt. Hoping my husband just takes it as a good thing and doesn’t think I’ve gone completely nuts🤣

@WF1990 Yes i think i can see something on the first one but not so sure on the 2nd. Deffo try again in a few days if AF hasn't arrived! Aww I hope this is your month 🤞

Hope everyone else is doing okay too!

Thank you girls!
good luck to you all too.
I used all my CBs, so I’ve bought some cheapies to be delivered tomorrow on Amazon 🤣
I have one digital cb but there’s no way I would waste it until I have a positive ONE DAY! 🤞🏼

Hi ladies, 11 dpo today, back cramps and pink spotting. Boobs are still v sore and I have no front cramps but I think I’m out. It’s not full blood but at that point I’ve decided to stop testing and embrace af. What a disappointing month, I hate having such. A short luteal phase because it gets so confusing. At least it’s back to 10/11 days without spotting at 9dpo… a victory in itself but I’m super deflated.
im going to step off MN until the next 2WW. Thank you all so much for being so nice and supportive xxx

Morning @WF1990 I'm so sorry your feeling so deflated and think AF is on the way. It's so difficult with the constant mind games and being in limbo especially when every month seems to be different and you feel some hope. Sending you lots of hugs and hope stepping back over the next two weeks helps you feel better 💗 we're here if you need us though 🙂

How is everyone doing?

@Lh4503 doing okay thanks, had my LH peak early yesterday morning so now into the TWW. We’ve followed the SMEP this month, was surprisingly easy so think we’d do the same again from now on. Have my fingers crossed but also trying to be realistic! How are you doing?

How’s everyone else? Hope you’re all doing well!

Hello @MegLS glad your doing well. I had my LH peak yesterday too, which was earlier than usual for me too! Aww thats good, it's definitely worth a try.

Yes im okay thank you, feeling a bit more relaxed this month but started spotting again today, had the same on 1dpo last month and ended up bleeding for 3 weeks until AF came 🙈 hoping it won't be the same this month.

Hi all, AF came really late for me on CD35! My cycle is normally 28-29 days so I’m not sure what happened there… CD 9 today, going to try DTD every other day for a week from Friday and hope for the best 🤞

Good luck for the TWW @Lh4503 and @MegLS hoping it goes quick for you 🫶

Hey gals, I’m waiting for ovulation on my side which is not for another 2 weeks or 10 days so I’m pretty quiet until I moan about the 2WW 🤣
good luck @EllieWales !

Morning ladies, how’s everyone getting on?

How’s the TWW going @Lh4503 ?

I’ve woken up to light pink spotting at 6dpo this morning, feeling really disheartened as that’s exactly what happened last month. Think if it’s the same again with a negative this month then I’ll be trying to book in to see a doctor.

@MegLS awww no, I wouldn't be disheartened though unless it's bright red spotting as on both cycles I fell pregnant I had pink spotting but mine was more around 10/11dpo. If it's worrying you though it's worth asking the dr to check everything for your peace of mind.

I'm 7dpo atm and actually pretty chilled this tww I think its because I just don't think I'll be pregnant this month. Been spotting 2nd cycle in a row since 1dpo Dr doesn't seem concerned. I was told I have a cervical ectopy so apparently bleeding can be caused by that ehen estrogen rise after ovulation and nothing cycle related. But after 2 MCs I see blood and think thats it im out.

I had a positive LH test yesterday and got to business and going to again on Monday so I’m going to be joining you for the 2WW 😁

@Lh4503 Thank you, it’s turned into a fair bit of brown spotting today, have sore boobs and I’m having some cramps so I think AF is coming early - annoying as not due until Thursday and my cycles are usually 28 days! Good that you’re feeling chilled, and reassuring that the Dr’s not worried. Hope the rest of the TWW stays as chilled for you!

@bigbaggyblue Hope the TWW goes quickly for you and you get some good news!

@MegLS ahhh how annoying 😔 im sorry if AF is early. Hope your feeling okay I know it's super disheartening.

@bigbaggyblue yes good luck with the tww hope it goes quick for you!

@MegLSsorry if AF is coming early 😔 might be worth speaking to the doc if this is regular for you.

@Lh4503 glad you’re feeling chilled and good news that the doctor isn’t concerned but I don’t blame you for feeling that way after 2 MCs I think anyone would. Fingers crossed it’s your month!

Hi @bigbaggyblue fingers crossed for you. I think we’re in this TWW together! I haven’t done any LH testing this month but I had sharp shooting pain my left ovary yesterday and period type pains today so I either ovulated yesterday or today I think. DTD yesterday and will try again tonight for coverage 🤞

@EllieWalesaww exciting exciting!!! Fingers crossed for you too!! Two weeks suddenly feels like a long old time 😂

Left a little confused so I believe I am 2DPO, positive LH test on Saturday and CM Sunday matched with ovulation. Then today I’ve had EWCM but much thicker and stringier… if that makes sense. My LH test last night was negative. What’s going on?

That’s so weird @bigbaggyblue I’ve had the same today at 2dpo which I’ve found confusing also! Chat GPT says it can be residual fertile cm as progesterone hasn’t fully taken over yet 🤷🏼‍♀️

@EllieWalesI suppose this stuff probably happens most months but because we aren’t interested in what’s happening if not TTC we don’t even notice! I’m going to do another LH test tonight just in case 😂

It’s like that @bigbaggyblue 😂 I always thought I had regular cycles until I started TTC! I’ve tried to take a more laid back approach this month but we’ve been bang on with timing (no pun intended!) this month so I can’t help but be hopeful. Already planning my Christmas pregnancy announcement 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣 I know better but I can’t help myself!!

@EllieWales when are you planning on testing? I’m getting impatient 😂 I’m only 4dpo

@bigbaggyblueI’m 4dpo today too planning on testing at 10 dpo which I think is next Wednesday?? Feels so far away! Any news @Lh4503 @MegLS?

@EllieWales the spotting kept going very lightly all the way through until yesterday when AF arrived properly, so annoying. On to cycle 6 of trying, really trying not to be down about it but struggling a bit! Hope the TWW goes quickly for you and @bigbaggyblue and you both get some good news!

@Lh4503 how are you getting on?

Hi all, aww @MegLS im so sorry AF has arrived! It's so disheartening isn't it 😞I hope your okay and its not too bad.

I had spotting from 1dpo until about 7-8dpo (assuming from my ectopy) then it stopped and I've had a small amount of pink yesterday but nothing since, boobs are slightly tender. 12dpo today so only a few more days to wait. This is cycle 10 for me so I'm at the point where I've not got massive hope, im tired of this, just want it to happen soon. Won't be testing unless AF doesnt come!

Hope your all okay!
