1 DPO Today (15th Sept) anyone want to share the 2WW with me?
- Thread starter cazi77
- Start date
With the evening primrose you should only take it from first day of af up to ovulation cos what I've read it can cause little contractions which aren't v good if you conceive during 2ww. I've had loads of cm starting this month, I guess that's the green tea and evening primrose kicking in! I only use opt cos I didn't really get on with temping. Oh gets up before me in the morning which made me sort of wake up and then the cats start jumping all over me so taking temp was a nightmare! I'm feeling ok today but a little nervous about docs later. I've been going back through my notes I keep on my cycle and my luteal phase seems to range from 8 days to 12 days so I don't know if she'll think there is a concern in that area 
How's you?
How's you?

I'm pretty good. Had a long night with the DD. SHe was up on and off ALL night. Think I got maybe 1 hr of actual 
so I'm pretty beat! BUt, other than that pretty good.I've been cramping a bit last night and today so don't know what that's about. I hoping its my body doing a little "spring cleaning" before the new guest arrives for their 9 month stay
But who knows. Still see an increase in CM so that's good. Temps been a little low but last month I was sick so that could explain that. Don't be worried about the Dr. Its only gonna squash all the doubt you have, answer your questions, and give you actual, factual, useful help so you can get your :BFP:!!!! How long have you been TTC?

How long have you been TTC?This is our 19th month ttc #1. I think I'm pretty healthy, maybe a tiny bit underweight but I'm a vegetarian so I have a fairly healthy diet. Who knows what's going on! I bet if we stopped trying it'd happen but I don't think I'd be able to stop. It'd always be at the back of my mind and I'd still be pouncing on oh during ovulation! Once you know all this info about ovulation etc it's always going to be in your mind I think.

Yea, that's me and the kids. She isn't sick, she's teething. She's getting her 2 yr molars and all 4 of her K-9 teeth at the same time
so at times she is pretty miserable. In the beginning of the week she had a couple of bad dreams but I think it was because she was in pain while she was sleeping. So naturally I got her out of her bed and calmed her down and made the #1 mistake I promised I self I wouldn't make again... I put her in our bed!! Now, she is waking up in the middle of the night, every night, wanting to get into our bed. I try to let her cry herself back to sleep but its harder than you think. 1st reaction is to comfort your baby, 2nd is you just want to go back to sleep and the guilt of laying there while your baby is calling you and the noise of her screaming makes that impossible! So, last night I tried to stick to my guns but after hours of the fight, she won. BUt it doesn't get better when I put her in my bed. Then she's kicking me, pushing me out, I have to lay in a very uncomfy position because I'm scared I'll roll over onto her,waking up every 5 mins in a panic making sure she didn't fall out of the bed or crawl out. ANd, she can crawl out of her crib anyway so even when I do leave her in there she just crawls out and comes standing next to my bed crying anyway. She's not even 2 yet! So, this weekend I think we are going to try putting up her big girl bed and see how that works. My boss has been TTC about the same amount of time and all her tests came back fine as well. The first Dr she went to did an u/s to make sure everything looked ok, did blood work at certain points of her cycle,tested her hubby
and everything came back ok. Then, they did a flush of her tubes and things to make sure there wasn't a small block of anything. When that didn't work they put her on Clomid for 1 cycle. When that didn't work, they referred her to a fertility specialist. He said she didn't need to be on any meds that since her and her DH checked out fine that sometimes its just an issue of timing. So last week they did an u/s and saw her egg was about to be released. So, they sent her home to DTD, she came back the next morning with a sample of and they did an IUI, then they told her to go and DTD again that night. SO, now she's in her 2ww. So, there are so many thing they can do for you. Just keep up your PMA and I'll throw in some 
for ya! I think once you hear from a DR that your ok and you see there are some things in motion you'll be able to relax a bit and it will happen!!

What a horrible name for a procedure! It's awful when little ones are getting their teeth, I see a lot at the dental surgery where I work and it can really make them feel poorly. Unfortunately there isn't much you can do except lots of cuddles. It must be awful having to try and lay in bed and ignore her but once they know they can get in with you there's no stopping them!

Asked me what vits I take, how much alcohol I drink and if I smoke. Asked about oh. She seemed to think we're doing everything right. She said that dtd every other day or every 2-3 days is better than everyday, that will just deplete his reserves. She reckons that ttc for the length of time we have (I lied a little and said 2 years!) is long enough so she has referred me to the fertility doc at the hospital. Don't know how long the appointment will take to come through but at least it's got things started. I feel much better now I've been and she made me feel at ease so I'm pleased. I really hope it's not a ridiculously long wait but I've been patient for this long so I'm sure I can manage a while longer.

I've been think about your appt all day. I'm so glad to hear that it went well. Happy that everything is in motion. I know the look on my hubby's face if I had to tell him that so I'm sure it will be amusing! I'm sure getting an appt won't take to long. What CD are you on right now?Thanks Hun 
I'm on cd11 today. Got a faint line on opt so it must be coming up. Maybe now I've been to doc I'll subconsciously relax a bit and be lucky naturally this month! I'm hoping you and I will head over to the first tri forum this time!
How's your day been going?

Hi Jojo, how's you today? Is your daughter feeling any better? So glad it's Friday, it's been a long week! Still got my other job to go to tomorrow but at least it's a change of scenery.
Have you heard anything from nand, was wondering how she was getting on. Also what's happened to starchase? She hasn't visited for a while.

Hey! Your almost to your O day!!!!! Did you take another OPK? Yea, I talked to Nand and she's doing well. Don't know what happened to StarChase? Maybe I'll send her a PM. I saw Tigger on a thread and she thinks she maybe preggo with twins! Gonna get an early scan soon. How exciting for her! How you feeling today? ANy O syptoms?Do you have any plans for the weekend besides 
and work? 
Gonna go food shopping in the Am, which usually takes around 4 hrs because we go to 4 different stores. I'm a coupon addict as well as POAS. Well, a bargain girl really. I belong to many freebie websites so I'm always getting tons of free stuff in the mail,survey's and coupons as well as get the papers each weekend. We only go once a month to get all we need for the month,food,paper products,cleaning supplies etc. All the major stuff then stop and get milk,bread,diapers, fresh fruit, as we need. So, we go to 2 different grocery stores because each one has certain things cheaper than the other, Walmart for household types of things and Sam's club (warehouse club) for meat and things like that. Really an all day thing! After that going to take the kids to a hayride where they can pick out a pumpkin and get to paint it. We don't celebrate Halloween but have great memories of getting to pick pumpkins so don't want them to miss out on that. We usually get a pumpkin and then they get to roast the seeds and make pie. This year there is a little festival where they get the ride, pumpkin and get to paint it there all for $5 so can't beat that. I'm seriously having O symptoms today, and its like a week early! Got the cramps in the low abdomen mostly on the right,bloating, dull back pain and increased cm just Watery instead of EWCM. I could swear I'm gonna OVu soon. Was gonna avoid OPK's this month but maybe I'll just grab a couple to make sure. Is it really possible to Ovu soooo early? You think it could be all the green Tea and Grapefruit juice I've been drinking? I know its only suppose to increase the CM but do you think my body is in overdrive trying to make it all? Not really sure how that works but its so strange.

Not really sure how that works but its so strange.A hayride to pick a pumpkin sounds fun! Wish we had things like that over here. Don't celebrate Halloween over here as much as the states but we get the kids trick or treating. I always treat cos you never know what awful trick they'll do! We're going shopping tonight at a place called lidl, it's cheap and you've gotta save where you can. Strange thing with ovulation for me this month, got a faintish but v visible pos yesterday and lots of cm but today got a negative when I tested also not really got any cm at all today. What do you reckon that's all about? I'm bloated and have got mild cramps tho. Maybe you have bought ovulation forward, might not be a bad idea to do a test just in case. Better to be safe than sorry. The money we must spend on ttc! Managed to get oh to dtd last night even tho he was totally knackered!

Mine has been pretty busy but really nice, did the pumpkin thing with the kids and they had a blast, did some gardeing for the fall and since I skipped the gym this morning the family took a 2 hr walk which was much better than the stinky gym anyway.HOw you feeling? Should be pretty close to to ur O day right? Hope you've been tons! I'm doing pretty well. Got lots of CM still so hoping that drinking the grapefruit juice is working. Temped late yesterday and today but temps been low so hopefully they will start to climb because I'm on CD11. DTD Fri night and this morning so trying to stick to the SMEP as close as possible just not OPK this time around. Hoping for the best but really trying to keep myself busy this cycle so I'm more relaxed. Actually can't believe tomorrow I'll be on CD12 already! Wish my 2ww went this fast Well, TONS of for us! This is our month! July bumps here we come!!
