Two week wait

Anyone else on their two week wait?? I’m so impatient. Though I’m not sure how much of a chance we have this month. I ovulated really early this month for me, I regularly ovulate around day 19/20 but this cycle indicates I ovulated day 16. Did the deed two days before ovulation and I track my bbt and had a rise this morning. Just nervous as we had a chemical loss in June and we didn’t try in July so just would like these two weeks to go very quickly!

NB : That picture was taken the following day so a bit misleading . In reality the positive line was very very faint

planningforlife · 28/08/2020 00:38

AF is due Saturday not 6th

Em2210 · 28/08/2020 07:40

@planningforlife that looks positive but if it was the next day you’re right might not be accurate.

I’ve had a very faint line again this morning but I’m not hopeful at all now as my bbt has massively dipped today and really feel like AF is on its way. Ah well just have to wait and see now.

Heyy ladies, so I’ve just tested with FRER on a 4 hour ish hold. And I’m definitely pregnant but I have huge reservations at the moment. I’m just hoping it sticks in there 🤞🏻 Really do feel like it might end in a chemical pregnancy as it did in June. Cuz I feel all sensitive and tense almost a little bit of cramping. Just have to wait and see!

Should have said I’m still only 10dpo so quite early to get a positive result really! Hopefully it gets stronger in a couple days instead of the other way

OMG @Em2210 !! Congratulations hun that is definitely a positive .
Shall we both test on Monday again ?

Mich2020 · 28/08/2020 14:06

Eeek congratulations 🥳 lets hope it's a sticky one xx

Em2210 · 28/08/2020 14:32

Thank you! I hope it’s a sticky one too 🤣 I just have a gut feeling it isn’t unfortunately but all I can do is hope and try not to stress! Easier said than done haha. I’m going to carrying on temping for a few days just to give me an idea of what’s going on. And I will retest maybe on Mon/Tues and hopefully it will be a darker line. Assuming I can hold out and I don’t get AF before then!

Eeeeek, so exciting. I'd be testing every day now if I was you. Wouldn't be able to stop myself after seeing that 🤣. That is definitely looking hopeful, than line is more than a shadow now!

planningforlife · 29/08/2020 12:03

so AF is due today and I have got quite a bad back . Sore and cramping like AF is going to come any minute :(

I hope it's nothing

Em2210 · 29/08/2020 12:27

@planningforlife 😩 I’ve got that too! Fingers crossed she stays away for you! Do you normally get those sorts of signs? I don’t, so not sure what to think really. My temp is back up a bit today as well so that’s a slightly good sign. It’s no where near where it should be. But fingers crossed.

OP posts:
planningforlife · 29/08/2020 13:23

@Em2210 , aww I really hope it stays away for you too !! These babies need to stick :)

I don't normally get such a bad back . I tend to get some cramps but normally the aches are more in the top of my thighs and cramps are ofcourse more abdominal .

No bleeding yet though so that is a good sign . I think if all is well by tomorrow or Monday I will do another test and see if the lines are more clear as HCG levels should have increased

Em2210 · 29/08/2020 13:55

I really do hate this wait!! Because I have no self control at all 🤣 I tested again with a FRER at the same time as yesterday, but I did drink a lot of fluid at 11am so maybe that’s why. But the line is definitely fainter than yesterday. So that’s a bit annoying! Hopefully it’s just the fact it wasn’t FMU and because of my liquid intake. 2 more days to wait 😩

Yes definitely test again Monday! I hate that I over think ever single little cramp or twinge! No bleeding for me either yet. I need to just wait really but I’m useless haha. Just hoping the levels increase for the next test. I’ve got a 10miu/ml at home which I was thinking of doing tomorrow morning on FMU as it’s just been shadows on that before, no clear lines. If everything is as it should be a clear line should show up tomorrow I think!

Thank you for letting me vent. I’d be going mad without being able to tell anyone lol.

@Em2210 , you are not useless just a hopeful mamabear wanting her baby to stick and stay :)

I can relate to needing to vent ! I haven't been able to keep my mouth shut , I told my mother yesterday over the phone and ofcourse she told my brother and sister today as she had them over for lunch ! (They live local to each other , I don't )

So if this baby doesn't stick there is more explanations to be given :[
But having said that I would rather share that loss with my family than experience it alone anyhow

Sorry I am rambling , I feel really queasy and everything aches now . I am going for a little walk in the fresh air see , if that helps

Mugcake · 29/08/2020 16:56

@Em2210
@planningforlife

I've got everything crossed for you guys!!!! So exciting and defo positive signs! 😁

planningforlife · 29/08/2020 20:47

@Mugcake thanks hun :) here is to hoping they stick !!

planningforlife · 29/08/2020 21:29

Line is getting darker and coming up faster so hopefully all this discomfort is not for nothing

Two week wait
planningforlife · 29/08/2020 21:30

I am out of tests now and won't be buying anymore unless there is drastic change .

Em2210 · 30/08/2020 03:07

@planningforlife yayyyy! That’s definitely positive! Congratulations!!!

planningforlife · 30/08/2020 09:41

Thanks @Em2210 , how are you feeling today ?

Em2210 · 30/08/2020 11:29

@planningforlife yeah I’m alright thanks! Temps gone up a bit, although last night I kept waking up so not sure how reliable that measurement was. Did another 10miu/ml test at 3am ish and still really faint line. So don’t think it’ll stick unfortunately! As doesn’t seem to be increasing like it should. But no bleeding or spotting yet. Just a weird ache but not quite cramps. Technically due on tomorrow. So what will be will be I think!

OP posts:
planningforlife · 30/08/2020 11:54

Aww @Em2210 , let's stay hopeful until we see the red river . Nothing to say it won't stick . All my tests were either negative or super faint even 10+ minutes until yesterday when AF was due I got my first dark line that came up within the allotted 2 minutes. Maybe stop temping for a few days and just see if AF arrives .

Either way I am here cheering you on and wishing you all the luck in the world

planningforlife · 30/08/2020 11:57

Just a quick update on my end . I have just been to the toilet and upon wiping saw a little bit of red stringy mucus . Not sure if that means AF is starting ?

Em2210 · 30/08/2020 20:36

@planningforlife thank you lovely! Me and hubby have had a big tiff today 🙈 all is fine now. But I hope the stress of it all hasn’t caused issues 😩 Although actually I’m feeling a lot less stressed now so maybe it’s let me release some pent up anxiety 🤣

How are you doing? Can’t really say if that can mean anything! Hopefully it’s absolutely nothing xx

OP posts:
planningforlife · 31/08/2020 00:55

@Em2210 , sometimes arguments aren't necessarily bad . I firmly believe sometimes you just need to have it out and air your grievances and then move on .

Hopefully it has brought you closer together . I am okay , no sign of AF as such yet so still hopeful Smile

Do you think you will test tomorrow or just leave it and wait for another few days?
