My first real 2WW - 2DPO

They were screaming from the closet: :test::test::test:

So I did. :blush:

Of course :bfn: but I couldn't help myself; they were relentless.


agreed, they've been calling my name! trying sooo hard not to test, its driving me :wacko:
 
I did too....I think I've just come to the understanding that I'm going to test every morning until AF. Haha, I'm so impatient!


if i can hold out 2 more days than i'll start testing everyday til af is due as well. hate the 2ww! :growlmad:
 
anyone having new "symptoms"? i feel like i'm not having any :(
my cramping went away, as well as the pain on my right side & i have absolutely no cm anymore. i dont have any more test left and i'm trying to convince myself not to buy anymore for a few days because i feel like i'm out this month for some reason :cry: although i will keep testing just in case, i just feel hopeless. if i dont get pg this cycle my dr is starting me on clomid
how's everyone else feeling about this cycle??
 
jshippie, I couldn't have said it better myself...I'm pretty much symptomless right now. Nothing is sore or aches and I'm assuming that's a not a great sign...BUT...we still have to be patient. It's not over til its over. I'm still going to be optimistic for us!
 
The only thing I feel is achy...kinda like pre-AF cramps that go down my mid-thigh, but definitely not the degree of pain on CD1. I'm tired, but I did mow the lawn today. I want sooo badly to have symptoms, but I'm still trying so hard to attribute them to other things. I don't want to be pessimistic, but I also don't want to get my hopes up for a huge letdown. Who am I trying to kid? I'll be a letdown even though this is my frist cycle TTC. I don't know how people do this for months/years on end and not go completely crazy.

jshippie - how long have you been TTC for the doc to put you on Clomid?
 
morgan- you're totally right, its not over til :witch: shows! i'll try to be more optimistic for us :winkwink: i just don't want to give my hopes up, this is my 4th cycle since 2 m/c's and i think every cycle is "the" cycle, and i get let down every time. i'm so glad this thread is going because it seems like we're all feeling the same way.
it's wierd that we had kinda symptoms early on but now nothing. the only thing i'm feeling now is like i have a uti, which i do get frequently...most likely due to all the :sex: hahaha
i'm hoping and praying that we all get our :bfp: soon!!
 
sewergrrl- i sooo badly want to have symptoms too! i'd give anything to have super sore bb's or morning sickness right now :haha:
is this your 1st cycle ttc you said? we've been ttc #2 since march/april 2010...i had 1 chem pg in june, then a m/c at 8weeks in sept & another m/c at 5weeks in november. since then NOTHING. every cycle is torture because ontop of the m/c's my cycle is so irregular.
my regular gyno just kept saying "keep trying, keep trying it will happen" and my last m/c i called because i was bleeding and they just told me "its very early on, its common to bleed in early pregnancy", i ended up m/c'ing 5 days later. so i took matters into my own hands and my hubby and i went to a fertility dr last month. if i dont get pg this cycle i'm having a few tests done, hes having a sperm analysis done & i'll start clomid. it's soooo frustrating because we didnt even TRY with my son!! i was on b/c and took antibotics for a uti which deactivated my pill and bam i was pregnant! i didnt even know until i was 7 weeks, my only symptom was sore bb's and i had no idea.
anyways, so sorry for the rant! i'm glad you ladies are all here for us to vent to eachother, i could never talk to my friends about this stuff because they all get pregnant at the drop of a hat so they dont know what "trying to get pregnant" is! :growlmad:

You'll have to take another tomorrow...I took one this morning and got a BFN. :( We just both have to keep in mind that it's probably too early. Soooo keep your hopes up! They could still be BFP since you saw a slight one this morning...you just need more hgc in your system. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!
 
I see something on the CVS one, but it could be an evaporation line, which I understand is pretty common with the blue dye tests. :( Definitely check tomorrow AM!

Yes, this is my first cycle TTC #2. When I got pregnant with my daughter in 2007, I was having bleeding issues the month prior (light AF-like 2+ weeks) and took Prometrium for 5 days to stop the bleeding. About 3 weeks after I had SUPER sore bbs that I attributed to impending AF after taking hormones. Since I never get sore bbs (haven't since other than pregnancy) I had a hunch something was up, so I took a test a couple days later and I was pregnant. We hadn't even started trying, just decided right before the bleeding episode that we were NTNP. I didn't think it was possible to be pregnant before I got another AF. Like you, my only symptom was the bbs and I am pretty sure that I was already late or on time with AF when I felt that. It's hard to tell when you have issues the month prior if everything in on schedule. That makes me feel less blah when I'm symptomless now!

I'm older (turned 38 in May) and hubby and I talked a bit about having another, but neither of us seemed to push the issue even though we said we'd like another. AF was late in April and I didn't think much of it since we were NTNP and really hadn't BD'd much the cycle prior...like maybe twice. I had cramps the day before AF was due (typical) and when she didn't show on Saturday and Sunday, then Monday I took a test I had lying around and it was positive! I didn't believe it so I ran to the Rite-Aid and bought 2 different kinds of tests. :blush: I was excited, scared, and pretty much still saying WTF?!?!? I didn't even have much time to get used to the idea because the afternoon after going for my second HCG test, I started bleeding. My doc urged me to go to the ER the next day and the ultrasound detected nothing. Honestly I wasn't sad, but actually relieved to have it happen right away. What happened to me next was that I realized that I DO want another NOW! My husband was really sad about the MC and is all for another too. :)

I'm so sorry for your losses. I cannot imagine having 3 MC in less than a year. :( Speaking of that, your doc doesn't think something is amiss after 3 MC in a row? "Keep trying" sounds like a great thing to do when you're just not conceiving, but it seems to me like you need some help. Good for you and your husband for doing what you have to do to make your beanies sticky. :) I really hope the specialist can help you. A question: I thought clomid only made you ovulate (you know you're doing that)? I haven't researched much about it and would love some info in case I have to go the fertility route. I hope I don't have to because my husband works for a Catholic hospital and our medical insurance doesn't cover BC of any type, nor do they cover fertility treatments. UGH! :growlmad:
 
And yes, it's so nice to have people to talk who understand!!!!
 
I see something on the CVS one, but it could be an evaporation line, which I understand is pretty common with the blue dye tests. :( Definitely check tomorrow AM!

I'm thinking it was a false positive, as the line came up right away. don't evaps show after the time limit? :blush:

thanks morgan! crossing my fingers for you to get a bpf as well!! i took another frer this moring and didn't see anything, i just tweaked it a little and saw something...i'm going to post it now. did you take another test this morning?? i'm eager for one of us on here to get a bfp! but you're right, its still very early :winkwink:
 
hey sewergrrl-
sorry i misunderstood you, i thought you were ttc #1! i like you're new profile picture, you're daughter is adorable :flower: it's crazy how we have similar stories with our 1st children, neither of us knowing or planning the pregnancy! did your pregnancy with her go smoothly? i had a perfect pregnancy with my son (not such a smooth delivery though) which i guess makes it harder for me now that we're having trouble getting pregnant/keeping pregnancies :sad1:

i'm really so sorry about your loss :hugs: believe me i felt the exact same way after, that i wanted another baby NOW. it really is the worst feeling, going for a u/s and them telling you they didn't detect anything, i feel your pain. that happened to me with my 2nd m/c- i woke up with af-like cramps and just not feeling right, called my dr because i had started bleeding, they sent me for a u/s, i just KNEW i was m/c'ing. the u/s tech told me "i'm so sorry, there's no longer a heartbeat". i saw my dr & she gave me the option of a d&c or to do it naturally at home, i chose to let it happen naturally, which it did pretty much right away. it was probably the worst physical & emotional pain i've ever been though. the bad thing about m/c'ing naturally is that you SEE everything you pass, i almost 9 weeks, so i saw the baby :cry: not to mention my 2 bestfriends were pregnant and i had to throw my bestfriends baby shower (the baby is also my godson) 2 days after the m/c. that pregnancy was also a very bumpy road and is also another long story :blush:

i ended up getting pregnant a month after that m/c, we were ntnp since i was still very emotional. i never got af in between pregnancies, i called my dr and she said that it was normal for af not to come and take awhile get back to normal after a m/c so i didn't think anything of it. on halloween i randomly took a test and it was positive! 5 days later i started spotting, the dr/nurses said it was normal is early pregnancy, i had my hcg's checked every other day and they said it was just early. i started cramping really really badly and bleeding full-on a few days later. i never even called them to say i had a m/c, i was so mad, angry & upset, they couldn't have been colder when i called concerned with bleeding every day.

anyways, i changed drs in the practice after that, saw a new one a months ago because my cycles were VERY long, between 35-50 days, she said i just have irregular cycles and to use opk's to track them. feeling like we were getting nowhere, i called a fertility place and the dr couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. if i dont get pregnant this cycle than i go in for blood work, an u/s & have a test where they inject dye into the uterus to check for things like cysts, fiboroids, blockages, scar tissue etc. i just want to make sure everything is okay before we keep trying. she said if i had any of those issues they're looking for, that could be the reason that i keep loosing pregnancies, because they have problems attaching or staying attached. so we will see.

i don't know much about clomid either, but i am pretty sure it does make you ovulate. i think she wants me to start on that so we KNOW i ovulate and can pinpoint it, since my cycles are so irregular and its hard to track. they don't count the chem preg as a "real" m/c. i had 2 positive tests, followed by negatives days later. my hcg was barely detectable, i guess thats why they call it chemical because technically it is. the fertility dr said if i were to have a 3rd real m/c then they'd do testing to find out why.

wow, sorry this is so damn long and all about me! there's a lot of stuff that went on, so much to explain! :blush: back to you, i hope you don't have to go the fertility route either, i would really rather not because i just turned 25. when i get more info about clomid from my dr i'll let you know for sure! the catholic hospital won't even give medication to help get pregnant?? i can understand a catholic hospital being against b/c but not against helping to create a baby! that's crazy, theres no way you can go to a different hospital for your obgyn??

anyways, so sorry again for your loss & for my super long response :blush:
i'm hoping and praying we all get our :bfp: this month!!!
sticky baby dust to us!! :dust:
 
p.s. this is the frer i took this morning, i tweaked it, can see a light line but its white and not pink, i took the pic 3 mins after i took it. i don't know what to think other than i am pretty much driving myself :wacko:
i'll just have to keep testing til :witch: shows!!
