new to this 2ww thing - 1dpo (I think) 3rd September

[EmmyReece]

lol I'm awful with pregnancy tests, that's why I'm trying to show a bit of restraint. before I started ovulating again, I'd do about 4 or 5 tests at the end of each month lol

I'm hoping all these things are quite positive, but I'm trying to play it down if you know what I mean?

 

[CamoQueen]

I totally get what you mean. I'm always worried that I'm building up my hopes just to be disappointed! Still, got my FX for us! I have a good feeling about this month!!!

 

[EmmyReece]

fingers crossed hun

 

[DaisyDoodles]

I have symptoms!!

I've been really bloated this afternoon despite not having eaten much and my nipples are sore to touch and if I poke my right bb it hurts!

Hubby is insisting that I don't get excited so I'm not going to mention a word to him, but what he doesn't know... lol

I have tonnes of ebay cheapie tests here as well so fully intend to test everyday.. but I've promised myself I will wait until Thursday!!

 

[CamoQueen]

That's awesome, Daisy, sounds totally promising!

I'm waiting til Thursday to test, too, even though it's really early. Also have bundles of cheap tests -- thank God for those, or I would go broke testing, lol.

 

[EmmyReece]

I wish I had the guts to test on thursday, but I'd only be 7dpo, so there's no way a test would work for me lol ...

Your symptoms are sounding really promising Daisy, keeping my fingers crossed

 

[DaisyDoodles]

Emmy, I'll only be 7dpo as well!

My way of looking at it is the worst I can get is a negative and that's exactly what I'm expecting so I'll test again the next day and with each negative I'll simply be preparing myself for the final big negative of AF... better for me than waiting for one big blow!

And if I'm lucky enough to get a faint positive, then I'll have something to smile about a little earlier than planned!

Good luck CamoQueen... we'll have to compare results! lol

Symptom wise, my bbs are still tender, I've spent the night tossing and turning and convinced I'm coming down with a cold but other than a slight sore throat and a bit of a blocked nose it's not developed yet and I feel tight across my tummy if that makes sense??

 

[emsy]

daisy thats such a good way of looking at it im waiting for my tests in the post so will start testing then!! Another symptom to add, nite sweats!! Gross i know but i woke up last nite n was wet through thought id weed the bed heehee!! Dh mentioned it 2 this morning ha!! Oh well hope its a good sign!! Spreading to us all xxx

 

[EmmyReece]

Well I have a lot, and I mean a lot of cm today. I honestly thought I'd peed myself earlier

Tummy is still aching, and my back is too, so have been lying down as much as possible.

How's everyone else doing today?

 

[babyanise]

gl to you all

 

[CamoQueen]

Three DPO today, think the wait is driving me crazy! I mowed the front and back lawn last night to get my mind off it... which worked for a few hours, but now I'm back to obsessing again, lol!

I'm feeling pretty good today. Soooo convinced that AF is going to get me. My birthday is coming up and wouldn't it be just like the witch to pay me a visit then! 'Cause honestly, it would be so perfect if I could get my BFP this month. My b'day and DH's b'day are this month, and the Chinese gender chart predicts a girl if I got PG this month -- and we both really want a girl this time around. But then I think because it's so perfect it's not going to happen, IYKWIM?

See what I mean about going crazy? Lol!!

 

[EmmyReece]

I totally know what you mean hun, I'm trying so hard not to obsess. I'm off out tomorrow, so I might grab a test to use next week, but don't know if I could keep myself from testing

Achey back, achey tum, sore bbs, sleeping in the afternoon, very wet down below

It's enough to drive anyone crazy

Lol, so true about the tests, just sitting there saying, "Pee on meeee... you know you want toooo....", lol.

All those signs sound really good to me! I had loads of CM in the first tri with my son, was tired, and had sore bbies! Seriously, it sounds like this could be your month!

 

[EmmyReece]

I'm only 6dpo tomorrow, so wouldn't dream of testing then. Going to try and wait until 10dpo at least.

I hope these symptoms are positive, keeping everything crossed for us all on here

 

[EmmyReece]

not feeling too good now

was just clearing the kitchen, and put the dishes from the sink into the dishwasher, and I don't know what, but someone made me feel really sick and I actually threw up

Oh wow, I'm sorry, I hope you're feeling better. I hate getting sick, it's the worst.

Cheered myself up this afternoon with Starbucks' salted caramel hot chocolate... mmm, my favorite. Still dreading the return of AF, and praying this is our month.

 

[EmmyReece]

Fingers crossed it doesn't come back for any of us

Don't feel anymore, so am thinking it must have been something while I was cleaning up that turned my stomach, still no idea what it was

6dpo today and counting, I really wish it would hurry up so I can test

 

[4magpies]

Only just noticed this thread... 110% have my fingers crossed for you Emmy...

You deserve that long awaited BFP!!

xxx

 

[EmmyReece]

awwww thank you hun , keeping my fingers crossed for you too and everyone else

 

[EmmyReece]

I'm feeling a bit guilty this morning, am sooooo jealous of Chris' friend. He's just text us to say his fiancee (they've only been together a year and a half) has had their little boy this morning. And as awful as this sounds, I can't bring myself to be happy for them because first of all I can't stand her, and secondly I feel like it should be me and Chris as we've been ttc longer than they've even been together

I'm ordering some pregnancy tests tomorrow. By the time they arrive I should be 10dpo, so that should keep me from testing way too early.

My stomach is churning now, I don't know if it's cos I'm upset or something else. Getting aches down in my lower tummy. And again, feeling like I've peed myself cos of the overload of CM lol.

This is my first proper 2ww and it's driving me crazy
