Jane, I was wondering that too. With my last pregnancy I had constant pain and cramping, I wonder if that's cause something was wrong? Maybe I don't want that symptom with a new pregnancy!
 
Its strange how we're all in the 2ww together this cycle even though we all have completely different cycles... me and mlm and jane and phez are nearly at the same stages too! Maybe this is a sign that a quadruple bfp bonanza is coming up? if you have a 20% chance each cycle then surely one of us must get a bfp... it would be unfair if no one did. If no one does this cycle I think the thread must be cursed!

I was thinlking the same yesterday. I know they say cycles womens' adapt but that's when they're in the same room, not over a forum! So funny! Couldn't be a better place to share the 2ww, really glad you're in as well! Did post in another 2ww group but think I'm just gonna hang out here.
Had another hi temp this morning, one more needed to confirm o on FF, had another hi OPK today, it's ridiculous. Not sure you could call it positive but this surge is lasting ages!
 
Let's hope your temps stay high mrs phez.

My taking charge of your fertility book just arrived! Let's hope I won't need it! Heard there are some nasty pictures in there :blush:

Good luck for Sunday ladies...I'm only 3dpo so will do an early text mid week next week.

What day will you test mrs phez? (I guess you'll get an idea from your temps after a while anyway?)
 
I can't wait for the testers! I KNOW we are going to have multiple BFPs, you girls seemed to have your timing down!

And this is totally me today. Sometimes I really don't like having rowdy and loud coworkers. I already have a headache from the nonstop extra-loud volume story telling they are up to!

I think 10 DPO which is next Friday. But I have a stack of ICs so might succumb to earlier testing. My appetite has gone through the roof today, don't believe in early symptom spotting really but why not, it passes the time. Days are going so slow but at least I have your testings to look forward to!
Hope you don't need that book either J!

I had a bit of cramping with my healthy preg so no cause for alarm if you do, it's the bean bedding in!

Haha. That's me a lot of the time I think.
 
Are u being strong mlm? 2 days left!
 
Got my 3rd hi temp today so it really is the 2ww. Hoping the B6 helps my LP along but my temps are already higher this month compared to the last. :thumbup:
 
I don't think we dtd enough but I still have a glimmer of hope. If not I'm taking a break from forums and living my life again because its got a bit ridiculous. I still have sore boobs yes and some mild cramps. the.months I got my bfp's though i didn't have any symptoms so I think that can be a really good symptom on itself! Bonkers!
 
I'm with you on taking a break from forums and obsessing if we don't get bfps. Hopefully that doesn't happen though.
 
Mlm- my willpower has failed me. I can't decide whether I'm 8 or 9 dpo today. If I got the smiley on the 23rd I hope I o'd the same day which would make me 9dpo as my cm dried on on the 24th. Do you girls count the day after opk as 1dpo or do you count the day of opk as 1dpo? I'm confused :dohh:

I took a test today and imagined a smudge where the line should be. Can you see anything? More mild cramps today though so not too hopeful. Mackjess did you get cramps in 2ww? I think i'm going crazy line spotting! Bring on sunday when this dreaded wait will be nearly over (11dpo then).

Can you see a smudge or am I completely crazy?! I think I am officially going insane!
 
Ok i've just taken the test out of the holder and I'm sure its the antibody strip that I saw as there was no line and no colour. Must have been the reflection off the casing. Boo :( Never mind
 
Bobster, I definitely see something there. Not sure if it has color, or if its a reflection, but I see something. Fingers x'ed it's the beginning of your bfp!!!
 
I think you see more on the picture than irl. I hope it is though. Are you still being strong?? I wish I didn't test now as I'll be obsessing even more now! Argh the madness!
 
Oh holy crap....I just got off the phone with my GP.

I felt down today because my mentor at work had her 20 week scan and my turn just feels like its so long away.....so as its been 5 months since the early mc and I've had two bleeds in that time and am suspecting I am not actually ovulating I decided to get a telephone appointment with the GP...

He is sending me for a day 21 blood test to check I am ovulating BUT he said since we don't really know where I am in my cycle I am just to get them done and they will take it from there and in the mean time he said he will pray to the fertility god that i am actually pregnant (what a joker!). I haven't got the blood test form yet (got to pick it up tomorrow) so don't know what hormones he is actually testing for. Maybe he'll do a blood hcg test in there too?!

He then said if nothing changes for me in 3 months they will be sending my DH for sperm analysis and further tests for me....

So I'm a bit shocked cos I wasn't expecting that- really thought it would be a go away and come back in a year.

So I am feeling a lot better that maybe there will be some answers soon other than trying to find answers using google!

:happydance:
 
Sorry for my long post girls.

Oh my, bobster I saw a line but as you and Mlm already said not sure it has colour. I'm really praying that we all get it this cycle (and I'm not religious!)
 
Wow Jane it sounds like your gp is a lot more proactive than some! I'm glad you're feeling like they are doing something for you. I think they test for progesterone on your day 21 test but no 100% sure. When do you go for your bloods? Day 21 tests are pretty pointless for us women with long cycles, I think they base it on women with 28 day cycles who ovulate on day 14 as progesterone should be very high at that point in the luteal phase for those ladies. I wonder if they test for the lutenising hormone too..? Might be worth asking when you go for your bloods. Happy they are helping you :)
