Whos on the 2ww ??

[Nicolaplus1]

I am ( i hope ) anyone on my other thread will know am not sure if i missed ovulation this month, picked up a positive on OPK sat and sun but 1st chance i had to BD was mon morning!!

So am classing myself as on 2ww and hoping that eier thursdays swimmers survived or that i actually ovulated maybe sun/mon.

Cora - yey for stroppy SIL !

Energ - well hope it works out for you, sounds like a lot going on for you right now.

No AF...CD34....may actually have to buy a test or three soon...

JKS - ordered 25 over the web last night so I'm sure I can spare a few. In my defence, they did only cost a fiver, so it's no longer an obsession but a canny purchasing tactic?

No, didn't think that would fly

Ooh sounds good, where did you buy them from?

www.uk-fertility-solutions.com/index.asp

is the site I used for mine. Being paranoid about anyone seeing what they were, I actually asked them how discreet the packaging was, and they emailed very quickly this morning to reassure me and tell me that I should get them tomorrow. I will try and hold off testing until 7dpo because there's no point testing before. But I know my willpower of old, so I'll probably be bitching about BFNs by tomorrow night, even though there is no way in hell I'll get a positive that early!

The thing I've found about buying them in such quantities was that it became a pretty much guilt-free experience, whereas the prices we have to pay for CB, FR et al do rather discourage a POAS addiction in all but the seriously afflicted. It took me 5 miscarriages to conceive my son, and I can tell you I had mega advantage card points by the time we got there, just from all the HPTs I'd bought Which was why I switched to internet cheapies after mc number 3, and didn't buy another CB until I was pg with DS.

Anyway, what's new with you? If you've had no more bleeding since Saturday I'd say that was a positive sign. When are you going to test?

Hi,

just wanting to join you.
i am 2dpo and we are trying for #3. i had a MC in Dec and needed a bit of time to consider if i was ready to TTC again. crossing fingers, this month is the month (been trying for last 3 months) and trying to make sure i don't test too early!

baby dust and luck to all

Hi all, ok so I am 6DPO (I think no OPKs etc) and on day 26 of a 32ish cycle.

Bought tests today and they are burning a hole in my drawer!

How soon can I test?

Here's some stats to put you early testers off....it worked for me

Fertility Friend have done a pregnancy test study using thousands of charts on their database and this is what they find.

Average Day Past Ovulation (DPO) for the first positive pregnancy test: 13.6 DPO

Average DPO for the first "false" negative test result: 10.3 DPO

Percentage of pregnancy charts with a positive test at 10 DPO: 10%

Percentage of pregnancy charts which show negative results before a positive result: 17%

Average time between the expected period and the first positive pregnancy test: 0.5 days before the expected period.

Percentage of negative test results taken three days or more before the expected period day on non pregnant charts: 40.7%

Thanks Energ - i will def get some from there if AF arrives for next time - as i am pretty sure she's on her way.

I did try to buy some tests this evening but was thwarted by chemist having run out !!

hey ho, saved myself some pennies i guess.

Thanks StormTTCbabyNo1, that's put my mind at rest - I'm 1 wk into the 2ww and did a test this am (6 days before period due) and got a negative

I've been symptom spotting since the day I ovulated!! It's probably mind playing tricks but for some reason I just feel pregnant.....

I've promised myself that I won't test again until the weekend - fingers crossed!!

Good luck to you all

good luck to u too shuv66
i'm 9DPO and its cos of those stats that I've not bothered to test....in fact i've lost the urge to. AF is due friday, if its still a no show by sunday, i may consider testing, hopefully i can hold out til 16DPO though.
fingers crossed

Ooh I wish I was feeling less inclined to test... but I'm not

By prev two cycles AF is due Monday not Wed so if I can hold out until Sunday I will. I got bargain tests in Superdrug that were 4 for £8 so I don't feel too guilty!

JKS, it's not over yet, hun. Will be flinging a load more baby dust in your direction.

Shuv, feeling pregnant isn't necessarily your mind playing tricks. I've had 7 confirmed pregnancies so far and known every single time that I was up the duff well before a positive HPT. Which is why I'm pretty sure this time as well, despite it being very early days. Sometimes you really do just know.

Storm, I admire your willpower but can't hope to emulate it. Also can't afford to emulate it as a positive test result in my case puts in train a whole load of things, like adjusting medication, sorting early scans, and probably getting to see the cardio early. Will probably be classified as high risk again, so the sooner I can get 2 lines on a stick, the better it'll be for the baby. Life was so much simpler when we first started ttc!

TWD, I shall be peeing on sticks just as soon as they arrive, but will limit myself to one a day. Probably

Good luck everyone

CD1 here, going to get some cheapie tests from that site ready to go mad next time

twowoulddo you have more willpower than me.. i know we were meant to keep each other going, but i tested today - negative. Serves me right! Now i am going to make myself wait until tuesday, asi only have one test left (and i do feel guilty as they are digital ones!)

sillybillymummy I think I'm on the brink too... going to try and wait until Saturday to test so that don't have to try and contain my disappointment/excitement at work for a few days but it's proving hard!

I also was struck with some hardcore dizziness this morning which has since passed. I had this last time before my BFP so am trying not to get my hopes up... all the signs are surely there but it surely must be too soon???

Hello everyone....

I still have ZERO urge to test but I feel PG to Shuv - I'm awfully bloated and feel just as I did during my 1st PG but its probably all in my head but a bit of that positive thinking can't do me any harm eh!

Energu I understand your mentality that sooner you know the better and I would say that if there are underlying issues that a PG will be affected by or will affect then go for it...test til your hearts content

I on the other hand am determined to wait and hope AF arrives before a BFN.

I've got my fingers crossed for everyone on the 2WW. We're gonna get a BFP soon

xx
GOOD LUCK ALL

twowoulddo i know exactly what you mean, i feel like i'm pregnant already..! And probably not at all!
I think its because i've never had this waiting thing, the last 2 times, i sort of just came off the pill to see what happened.. and then felt all the symptoms, tested and i was.
So the fact that i am actively trying to get pregnant is making me more obsessed.. i've always thought people who worry/stress about it too much, take ages to get pregnant, so this makes me nervous!

It would just be such good timing now... Although an April baby would be lovely, Its my 30th Birthday and we sort of have plans, but i know i can't be fussy! A baby anytime next year would be AMAZING

LOL just read my post back and it reads as though Shuv got me PG hahahahahaha!!!

If i had put the word 'too' in there then it wouldn't LOL

Sorry to disappoint you Shuv LOL

I like all of those facts and figures Storm, I tend to work better with straightforward info like that so I think that will stop me from testing too early and getting disappointed. I'm definately going to check out that site.
I'm on my second day of ovulation, having to plan baby making time around the world cup. So unimpressed. Even more unimpressed because I asked him who he was hoping would win and he said he didn't really mind. Then why the hell is he watching it!!!!

LOL I could say the same for my DH....WTF ar you doing watching football teams you don't even support when I'm here looking all comehither LOL x

Can't wait for the World Cup to be over. It's such a pile of arse.
My ovulation days are over, now I play the waiting game. Actually, I'm not entirely sure if ovulation is over, I worked out my dates but I think they might have been wrong. God I hate maths.
Any baby news from anybody?

I wish... this really is a wait! Normally my weeks go so so quickly!

Girls, I'm hoping off the 2WW thread, CD28 for me and AF arrived just like Clockwork today. Nevermind.

Fingers crossed for all of you and fingers crossed for next time.

I'm sorry to hear that Storm. I have an inkling it didn't happen this month, I think I need those ovulation sticks. I can't work out my ovulation dates. They should teach this stuff in school.

Sorry to hear that Storm.

Cora - I ordered some pg tests from that website Energ recommended, they sent me some free OV sticks (free postage too!), 10 i think, so i will use them this month just to make sure I OV when i think i do!
