TTC - Symptoms 2WW

85 replies

Chloe2599 · 10/09/2023 15:15

Hi everyone we’ve been TTC for 7 months now (8 months this month), had a chemical MC in June and wondered if anyone was in their 2WW and we could share symptoms etc.

we’ve tracked our fertile days this month using strip and digital ovulation tests and made sure we did the deed 7 times in 8 days around the time. Now 3DPO feeling dull cramps, fatigue, headaches, slightly full/tender breasts and cervix is low but very soft. Anyone in their 2 week wait? I feel like it’s never going to happen and thought may help get through with someone else to share with ❤️❤️

Hi!
Im also 3DPO, I literally just posted a thread looking for a buddy! I’ve had terrible ovulation pain since ovulation day, which eased today but still quite crampy, especially when laughing or coughing, I’ve also be lethargic today. I’m on cycle day 56 as I came off BC (combined pill) in May.

My body has tired to ovulate twice in this cycle, so this is like my 3rd TWW in one cycle cries real tears. I had two lots of high OPKs at different times but no AF at the end of it, but this time I know that I have definitely ovulated and I had a surge of 241, along with EWCM and this horrid pain🫣

Hopefully we will be sharing our positive tests in a weeks time 🤞🏼🫶🏼

Hi @HappyWelsh aww im so glad we are at a similar point! I’m forever reading these threads and thought it was time I started one. What day are you planning to test on? I’ve woke up feeling blerghh today and did yesterday afternoon.

tired, bit sicky, boobs are still sore and feel full but I do always get like this after ov so nothing too unusual for me atm.

We’ve both been TTC since may too!! Let’s hope we bring each other some luck 🍀

@Chloe2599 Ive been feeling a bit yuck, like a hangover but think I’m coming down with something. I’ve had cramps which have eased a lot since yesterday. I will probably test on every wee like a manic from 8dpo😂 from 12Dpo, what about you?

Fingers crossed for us and hopefully this is a lucky thread 🍀

Chloe2599 · 11/09/2023 18:14

I just feel pretty tired today and bloated but when it comes to sleep I’m wide awake. Again usual feelings for me after ovulation.

my cervix is really soft but low still but CM is more milky/watery now. Have you got a preference when you do finally catch 💙💖

im going to try my best to last until 10dpo then morning wee every day after that. Going to use FR-pink dye as apparently they’re the best ones!! Will this be your first?

I feel the same, very bloated today! My cervix is highish, medium and closed. My CM is also milky/wet. I was on the pill so long that I don’t know what is the norm and what isn’t atm!

I’ve got 2 girls, I would like a boy but would just be grateful for healthy🙏🏼🫶🏼

I have got any FR they are the best ain’t they? I’ve got about 6 Easy@Home cheapies, I think they are quite sensitive, got a CB digi stashed away, going to really try not to serial test. Do you have any children?

Chloe2599 · 12/09/2023 07:51

Morning, would you be having a suprise or finding out gender ?

ive got a daughter from previous relationship but this would be hubbys first he’s very excited.

I feel tired, sicky and nipples are sore today. My first sign when we had MC in June was sore nipples and extremely tired so I’m happy for now 😃

should we hang fire and test same day 🤣

Hey @Chloe2599 and @HappyWelsh
I'm also in the TWW. 8DPO today. Had a MMC on the 24 of July. Having serious headaches since Saturday and extremely tired which is unusual for me but I don't know if that's the effect of the estrogen after my first ovulation post MC. Trying to 'relax and not stress' as everyone tells us to but geez that's difficult to do! Thanks for sharing what you both are going through. It's helpful to not feel alone in this Star

Chloe2599 · 12/09/2023 16:01

Hey @capetownclaire thanks for joining!

how long have you been TTC?

when are you going to test ? I’m feeling shattered again today, lots of milky white CM, slightly sore nipples and full breasts and woke up feeling a bit sicky. Also had 2 dizzy spells today but not sure if because I’ve not eaten and been stood hairdressing all day!!

keep us posted exciting xx

Hi hope you don't mind me popping on, I'm currently 11/12dpo. Had a MC at 5weeks last cycle and I'm having all the same symptoms! Driving myself crazy. Stupidly tested this morning with an IC and got a faint positive and neg on clear blue this evening. Dont know why I do it to myself. Dizzy spells, tingly shooting boobs, white cm, full feeling in pelvis.

Good luck all of you. X

Chloe2599 · 13/09/2023 07:02

Hey @Mumsy88 welcome!!

aww it’s horrible isn’t it ours was around 5 weeks too! They say your really fertile after so let’s hope your not just going crazy- good luck!

what’s an IC? Sorry if I’m being dumb 🙈

im now 5dpo keep waking up feeling sick and tired all day then can’t sleep when I get in bed.

how long have you been TTC? Xx

Mumsy88 · 13/09/2023 07:08

Thank you.

I've heard that to so let's hope so. IC is Internet cheapie. Not dumb at all so many abbreviations when ttc 🤣.

I symptom spot alot! I have an app where I put everything in and it's all the same as last cycle 😬 fingers crossed those are the start of your positive symptoms.

This is 3rd cycle after having coil removed. I've done another clear blue this morning and neg. But last month I didn't get a bfp till day was due and that was faint. Xx

Chloe2599 · 13/09/2023 12:27

Oh my bad 😅

im 5/6 dpo today. Feeling waves of sickness especially when I first wake up and very tired all day . Soft but low cervix and lots of milky white CM. Hopefully these are good!!

im going to aim to try and wait until 12 dpo before I test but will see how I get on 🙈

OP posts:
HappyWelsh · 13/09/2023 13:46

All positive symptoms🫶🏼🤞🏼 I’m in the same boat, it will be my partners first, we’ve got every crossed as age really isn’t on my side (I still feel 21 but my ovaries don’t).

Im 6dpo today, yesterday and today I’ve had cramps and strange pulling sensation on the one side, also like poking sensations. My nipples have been a little sensitive since ovulation but it’s become more sore with a few shooting pains and twinges today.

@Mumsy88 sorry to hear of your loss❤️ but as @Chloe2599 said, apparently we are more fertile afterwards, praying you get a sticky one🙏🏼🍀

Mumsy88 · 13/09/2023 13:51

@HappyWelsh I'm 35 soon and my partner doesn't have children, also have endometriosis 🤦‍♀️😬 was shocked I fell 2nd cycle.

Those symptoms sound positve, I feel like sometimes I'm imaging them haha!

Xx

capetownclaire · 13/09/2023 14:03

@Chloe2599 fell pregnant in 2nd cycle. Then had a miscarriage at 10 weeks on the 24th of July. On second cycle now again!

HappyWelsh · 13/09/2023 14:08

@Mumsy88 same, I’ve just turned 35. Gosh, you did fall quickly! Fingers crossed that this is one of those lucky threads! 🙏🏼

capetownclaire · 13/09/2023 14:56

@HappyWelsh @Mumsy88 I'm also 35!

Chloe2599 · 13/09/2023 15:02

@HappyWelsh that sounds very promising !!

keep us posted I’ve not had anything like that just looking spotty around my jawline yesterday and today nothing major. Xx

HappyWelsh · 13/09/2023 15:20

@capetownclaire aww sorry for your loss, it’s awful isn’t it? Wishing you a healthy BBP and pregnancy❤️ it’s definitely hard to relax, I’m way too impatient! I’ve ordered a box of ICs which will be here tomorrow, going to hold of testing if I can.

@Chloe2599 it could be that I’m overanalysing, I was on the pill for so long I’ve forgotten what is normal and what isn’t, I’ve had a few little breakouts, fingers crossed for you, I know that it is also a sign, I felt like I was back in my teenage years on my previous pregnancy’s

Mumsy88 · 13/09/2023 15:47

@HappyWelsh @capetownclaire hopefully this is lucky thread.

Sorry for your loss Claire. Xx

Chloe2599 · 14/09/2023 09:17

Morning guys 👋

deffinately still breaking out around the jawline booked a facial for tomorrow to try help combat.

im 7dpo today and feel really sick and tired. Also little strange but I feel heaving at anything strong smelling. Anyone had this?

is it strange also that I’m hoping for some cramping for signs of implantation 🙈

how’s everyone doing in their TWW? X

OP posts:
HappyWelsh · 14/09/2023 10:00

Morning all🫶🏼

@Chloe2599 those sound soo positive! Hopefully it will be your month.

I’m 7dpo now, I had a few waves I nausea this morning after coffee, last night my throat started to hurt and mild headache. My temperature sky rocketed this morning, but I could be coming down with something super fun😒 my nipples (sounds so funny witting that, who knew we’d be here discussing this on the internet) anywhoo, my nipples and chest area is is a little tender, and I experienced the lightening crotch this morning, but quite mild so could be anything.

Im also hoping for some implantation signs but not everyone get them, isn’t it like 30% (I’m sure I read that somewhere)

capetownclaire · 14/09/2023 10:20

Morning 🪴
10DPO, still feeling exhausted and have some really mild cramping. Also had a small bit of very light spotting yesterday. Boobs also feeling really heavy. Unfortunately I feel like this is the same as what I get before AF arrives 😢

Chloe2599 · 14/09/2023 13:56

your not out until your out girls ( AF arriving)

I’ve got serious headache today, no energy what so ever, feeling waves of nausea and even a little heartburn. I’m also having major hot flashes anyone have this?

no cramps, twinges or spotting praying for them even though I know sounds mad haha xx

OP posts:
Mumsy88 · 14/09/2023 20:14

Evening all

I've had pretty much the same symptoms as last few days. Apparently due on tomorrow according to my app. But I had strong positive opks for 3days 2nd 3rd and 4th Sept. 🤷‍♀️.

Hope your all OK xx
