2ww anyone?

[Camay]

Anyone started or about to start 2ww?x

I now have really bad cramps - I am not taking this as a good sign 😦 we are going to head out for a walk and see if fresh air makes me feel any better but I am feeling pretty ropey x

Hope you're ok xx

Hi user sorry you are feeling so rubbish hopefully the walk will help you.
I had a really sharp headache come on last night and had cramps again this morning after a few days of things settling.

Try not to lose hope though it may or may not mean anything I know it's hard.

I have woke up feeling negative today and I don't know why it's well over a week to go.
Probably all these hormones being put in our system giving us highs and lows.

Hello everyone, sorry to jump in here but I'm just learning how supportive these chats are and wished I had started sooner in my IVF journey. My transfer date isn't until the 14th but I was wondering what people are doing during the 2WW in terms of working? Whose taking time off and whose working. Is there any evidence to suggest time off is better. I love my job but it is intense, that said I think I would be more stressed at home with my thoughts.

Hi @becky114 - welcome to the feed. Exciting times with your transfer soon!

I am on cycle 4 so perhaps not the best person to advise but I did get bfp in 1st cycle. I have found it's good to have a mix. I find it less stressful if take a few days off to begin with, the. I worked at home for a few days and then for second week went back to work as I needed something to take my mind off all x

hey @Becky114 I'd take a day or so just to relax and then go about your normal daily..i cant see how doing something you love as bad thing... just don't do any heavy lifting.

has anyone had any sharp pains in their left side? I keep getting them today.
I wish I could remember all the symptoms I had when I fell pregnant prevously.

I know what you mean @longrd - I feel like I can't differentiate between my positive cycle and negative cycles so not sure if what feeling is good or bad.

I have literally felt hurrendous all day. I am just so worried af is going to arrive x

@user1497036202 it's such a horrible feeling you're meant to stay calm and relaxed but im just completely paranoid.
its so fustrating that the symptoms for af are the same as pregnancy!!

when is your test date?

I know @longrd - I feel like this weekend has been pretty agonising and my mind is on overtime. Felt better this afternoon after taking paracetamol but this evening got cramps again. Have no idea whether this is going to work out or not or if af us going to come. Test date is Friday x

user1497036202 I'm keeping everything crossed for you! positive vibes your way xx

Still cramping and have yellow tinged cm so just not sure what is going on for me x

Thinking of you user is yellowed tinged cm something you get in your cycle? Hope the cramping calms down soon

Thanks @herewegoagain18 - I don't normally get it so could be good and bad. Googled it and could be a positive or a negative sign so who knows! X

Hey everyone and welcome to new friends!

Sorry I haven't been active much, I've felt very down the last couple of days which is really unlike me... super tearful 😢

I broke and tested this morning 6dp5dt and got a BFN... starting to feel like I might be out... I had lots of cramping from transfer right up until 5dp5dt where everything kind of stopped? I have been getting lower back pain and still sleeping loads... still lots of sugar craving which is again unlike me... but I'm starting to think this is protege progesterone and that I'm prob out 😥

How are all of you feeling? Ladies on the 2ww I hope you're keeping busy and well ❤️ and to our ladies stimming... loads of water helped me with the headaches... love to all xxx

don't lose hope @camay you could have just tested too early. my cousin had a negative one day and then a positive the next!

I'm feeling pretty exhausted I was getting sharp pains in my left side that's now stopped then I started to get a weird tickley feeling through the night and now I'm just tired. I keep saying to myself it's the meds but it's hard to keep any sort of sanity.

Thank you @longrd ❤️ Sorry I don't mean to moan just having a bad couple of days! I hope you're right, hope I'm like your cuz!

I had some sharp stabbing pains that came and went In the first few days, they have stopped now... hope they are a good sign for you! It's so hard every symptom can be either meds, AF of pregnancy if you google! Lol there's just no way to know!

We are all warriors going through this girls... it's one tough journey xxxxx

@camay you didn't moan..if I could I would give you a big hug! I hate that we have to go through all off this but I'm so glad we all have each other to talk to through it xx

Hi Camay sorry to hear you have been feeling so down Like logard said you most likely tested too early please don't lose hope yet, though I know it's hard. Xx

@longard i have to keep telling myself it's med and not to read to far into it. It dosent always work though!

Sorry you feeling down @Camay - I think the others are right - it could be too early so try and keep some hope- tough I know!

I really do agree we are all tough cookies - the things we have been through and then the constant worries is not easy x

Thank you girls ❤️ @longrd virtual hug gratefully received! @herewegoagain18 Hope so hun, just struggling with the positivity today!

Thank god we all have each other, sometimes I feel like I'm actually going mad... I think it's very difficult to understand how this all feels unless you're going through it... but if I had a wand I'd wave it so none of us had to!

Thanks ladies... sorry for the negativity I'm just a sobbing mess today xxx

I know if I didn't have groups like you guys I would literally go insane. I was talking to s friend earlier and she says things along the lines of 'just take your mind off if it' and 'stay positive' making out that it was all super easy to do. I almost wanted to scream that I wish they knew how I felt x

@user1497036202 I know exactly how you feel! I know people mean well but it irritates me when they try to give you advice!

The 'Just relax and it will happen' or 'it's because you're thinking about it too much' literally makes me blood boil! Lol xx

I think I am out guys - have had pinkish cm once got home. I did feel like maybe it was too much cramping just for implantation etc. I am expecting it to arrive soon now. Had a little cry as this is our dream over really - I knew it was a long shot but had every hope we somehow might get a miracle x

@user1497036202 I'm so sorry I missed your earlier message!

Honey try to take a deep breath it could be late implantation ❤️
I feel like I came on here today and my negativity has spread... I'm sorry that was never my intention...

How about you and I make a pact that we are not out til we're out? Xx

I think that's a good idea @Camay - I can't seem to calm myself down. I just hate that we have to go through this x
