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 🤞🏼

@EllieWalesWelcome Ellie ! I am the same, only the day before ovulation as it was so hot, I’m currently 5dpo !
@Lh4503its good to learn off each other too, I think I’ll be testing on Friday, I want to order some FRER’s I think they are called. I share an Amazon account with my mom so I will have to make my own so she doesn’t see lol.
I am 10dpo on the Wednesday but I’m in the office so if I did test it’ll be on the evening and I always thought fmu was the best.

Welcome both! 😊

Yes let create a nice little space where we can all overshare. Because im the same i dont say too much to my hubby as I dont want to get his hopes u. I was going through this with my sister and me and her actually caught the same month (1 week apart) her pregnancy progressed and mine didn't 😢 so I'm so happy for her but ive lost that support and it's a constant reminder of where I would be now.

On another note, im 13dpo today and I did a test this morning, BFN again 😢 not surprised but feeling very deflated. Especially as my daughter was saying to by husband last night how she wants a baby brother, that really set me off. 🙈 So not feeling great.

@Lh4503 I’m sorry about your BFN but keeping my fingers crossed for you, you’re not out until AF arrives!

@WF1990 Friday will come quick enough, and what a lovely surprise that would be for both of you! I’m thinking of testing a week Monday because we’re camping next weekend Friday - Sunday - that’s if I can resist temptation 😂

Keeping everything crossed for us all

I’m sort of in the 2ww but I’m just starting out so not entirely sure if things lined up. I’ll be better prepared when I get AF. I used two apps and they gave me different dates of ovulation more than a week apart. I’m going to be disciplined and not test until the date for my latest supposed period. I’ve still got ovulation sticks from the last time I got pregnant but they never worked for me. The only time they were useful was when I missed my period they gave a strong line 😂 - I’d heard that could happen and I followed it up with an actual pregnancy test which confirmed it.

Good luck everyone

Welcome @GiraffesAtThePark 👋
Ive been using Flo and that always seems to be pretty spot on for me AF. Yes my ovulation tests went dark again too when I was pregnant.

Good luck! 😊

Welcome @GiraffesAtThePark!
and good luck !
I personally can’t use apps that much because my period varies -+ 4 days so I can’t always pin point ovulation! I use OPK.
@Lh4503im so sorry about your bfn, but yes it is not over until af shows up!

i’m 4 dpo so pretty uneventful here as no symptom would be related to pregnancy at this stage. I did have cramps side and lower back but pretty sure it’s just progesterone during the luteal phase!
the first week is so long ….!

Does anyone else track their CM? I don’t tend to pay much attention to it, but this evening I’ve had a lot of what I can only describe as creamy snot? 🤢 Can it be a sign of good progesterone levels? My temp hasn’t risen as much this month so far after a couple of dips.

@EmPeEfthis month I got really fertile cm (egg white cm) during my fertile window. This tallied with my positive OPK Then it
goes back to creamy - not
sticky cm which is progesterone cm. Which day of
your cycle are you ? I heard you can get more cm when pregnant ! 🤞🏼

@WF1990 I’m on CD22 either almost 8 or 9dpo.

My fertile CM is normally clear and thinner and a lot “prettier”? 😂 this was thicker and a bit grim lol. And bad colour mixed in.

@EmPeEfthats interesting !!! When are you planning on testing ? 👀

Hi Everyone 7DPO today, I was abit delulu yesterday and I have started cleaning out my daughters room to make more space as they’d be sharing. We will be moving to a bigger house after my maternity leave, when ever that will be.

Well girls im officially out again this month 👎

@EmPeEf Yeah ive heard sticky is good sign of fertility around ovulation though mine seems to be a few days before rather than at peak. And then creamy after. Apparently thick and creamy is a good sign!! Keeping my fingers crossed for you all!

Hey girls, 5dpo here nothing to note appart from cramping which is standard in my luteal phase.
@Lh4503im so sorry it’s not your month , sending you love !!!
Im trying to stay optimistic but I am over analysing the amount of time we DTD and we DTD 3 dayz before and like 30 hours before ovulation (from the cramps I had ) and im scared this isn’t enough ! Anyways only time will tell.
first baby for me, I’m trying to remain calm and collected, the more time passes the more I want to wait until AF is due so I don’t catch a chemical !

Jumping on. I'm now on CD25 8dpo with AF due 25th. Been trying not to think of test day until today I've become impatient lol hoping to make it to 10dpo but may cave tomorrow. No real symptoms bit if cramping, lethargic and restless legs but could be unrelated. Sending baby dust

Welcome @NatalieSF🩷
I feel like I am chilled for a week and once I hit 8 dpo I go insane so you’re not alone 😂

@WF1990 Thank you, im considering going to the drs this month to check progesterone as I've been spotting every cycle for about 3-4 days before my period. I'm worried that this is why it's not happening.

Welcome Natalie 🙂 try and hold out as long as you can!

Sending you all lots of luck this month 🤞🤞

@Lh4503yes you’re right and I heard spotting way before period (without implantation) can be a lack of progesterone, let’s hope you get some answers xxxxx

Hi ladies, waffling over
here but I’m having prickling / needly cramps sensations on the right side of my uterus and a slight increase in creamy cm. This might not mean anything but it was enough for me to notice and sit down.
I don’t think it could be implantation though as I am 5/6 dpo. Way too early I think …!
how is everybody feeling ?

@Lh4503sending you all the luck in the world for next month ❤️ It’s so hard when you already have a dc and they are desperate to have a sibling

@WF1990I have also had dull cramps but I’m 100% positive this happens monthly 😂 however I have definitely had an increase of CM so hoping that is a good sign.

@lalalalalala2024how many dpo are you again ?? I hope it’s good sign for both of us! I usually get cramping but not that type… but then again I could be Delulu 😂😂😂😂

@WF1990 I dont want to get your hopes up but the month I got preI had a sharp feeling like that on one area too and my sister said she did. It was sharp enough to be like ooooh! And the CM sounds promising too! 🤞🤞🤞 keeping everything crossed for you.

@lalalalalala2024 Thank you so much ❤️ yeah it's been a tough one this month, im off to center parcs tomorrow tho so im taking some time to relax and reset and hopefully get back in the right head space for next month.

Awww thanks for the feedback @Lh4503i feel like I am a bit too early though ! I would have my hopes shooting through the roof if I was 8/9 dpo 😅
take care of yourself 🫶🏽 I hope AF is bearable .. xxxx

@WF1990 yeah i know what you mean, at this stage your so aware of every little twinge and cramp aren't you. I do think we both had it more like 10dpo but implantation can happen at 6dpo? 🤞

Thank you girl, I'm okay ❤️ xxx

We shall see !
planning on testing before my husbands bday on Friday , would be so nice to have good news but we’ll see!
