TTC#2 and SO EXCITED! join me

[Hann12]

Okay girls so I woke this morning and had a lot of creamy not stretchy cm and have dull fairly continuous cramping, feels like AF is about to arrive. I can only be between 3-7dpo. I'm not sure when I ov'd but suspect it was sun/mon. Think it's too early to be implantation cramping, with my dd I got an implantation bleed 9dpo and cramping for a week or so from 8dpo. I'm way too early for it. Do you think it's possible that my luteal phase is really short?? I really feel like I'm about to start AF.

Hmmm interesting. Is It at all possible you ov'd earlier than you think? Maybe it's just random stuff from something else that feels similar to period junk but really isn't? Maybe AF is still a bit away. Do you chart at all? Sorry I can't recall if you do. That may help if you can look at your temp to help figure out what's up.

I felt like I was going to start at 10dpo and ended up with a super long LP (16days). You really can't base it on how you "feel". You just have to wait it out. Sucks I know. That was the hardest part for me.

CD3 here... Having the worst period of my life. Normally Midol will do the trick for cramps and after day 1, I'm good. Not this one. My cramps are horrible and I feel like I'm dying (I know I'm not really). I haven't had a period this bad since September of last year after my Dr. gave me Provera to bring on AF. That period lasted 3 weeks almost.

It's really heavy (TMI warning!!!) with lots of clotting. I'm hoping I'm just getting a good cleansing for some baby making this time

How is everyone else? Anyone getting close to testing?

just the same over here. waiting for O. AF is gone, wasnt bad at all for me this month. Although I did get a little sad thinking that could have been my baby, yikes. Im staying plently busy with my job and keeping up with the house since my in-laws are coming tomorrow (ALWAYS A NIGHTMARE) and getting ready for our trip. We leave on July 1 and will be gone through the 8th. that willl be the first part of my TWW..

 

[Hann12]

Runnergrl at least the 2ww should go fast this month for you.

happycpl, AF is rubbish!

My cramps have disappeared so not sure what that was all about. Now just have to bear the annoyance of 2ww.

Good luck with the in-laws. I can relate as mine are not even allowed to stay at my house anymore due to issues that came from when they did and how they treated me. Im waiting to O too. I am on CD9 and if the trend from last month continues I will on CD14 or CD15, so 5 or 6 days away for me.

I had a pretty heavy and painful AF this time (with clots) and I thought the same thing! Just getting that lining ready for implantation!!

Oooh do share about yours! I have some horror stories! What did they do?? I'm not far from banning mine too!

Hi girls, hope all of you are doing ok & either getting ready to test or are ovulating soon! 10 days to go for me but i'm a bit annoyed cuz for 3 months in a row now I've got sick, first with mouth infection, then coxsackie virus and now I've got a bloody cold! First 2 illnesses in tww now this one pre ovulation so hope it doesn't have an affect on tcc! Also bit sad for my friend, I took her blood today cuz she is 3 weeks late & had negative urine tests (she's been tcc for 6 mths), blood test negative too so she was a bit gutted! I need to see some bfp's x

 

[Hann12]

Mimismom - you could always test tomorrow! I'm a week behind you so if AF hasn't arrived I might test on the Saturday. I hope the cramps are a good sign for you!

 

[Hann12]

Hope you feel better IsaacRalph, as long as you are able to dtd it shouldn't have any bearing on getting pregnant I doubt. That's sad about your friend. I wonder sometimes how strong the power of the mind is, I mean for example with me feeling these cramps, I wonder if we weren't TTC whether I would particularly notice them. Also you hear of women's AF being late because their mind is looking for signs and thinks they must be pregnant when they aren't. It's very soul destroying because we should always be able to trust our instincts but I think sometimes we can be our own worst enemy, well I know I am! I am totally looking for signs now, and now as I write this the cramps are back however I've been doing stuff all day and been busy and I felt none, now I'm doing nothing here they are, trick of the mind or real, who knows?!!

 

[mimismom]

I wont be able to do a test with First morning urine so i Will probably do it sunday if i can stand The wait

 

[MamaMac123]

My spotting from last 2 days has stopped yet again. So totally annoyed with my body. Either ovulate or AF or be pregnant!!! Just do something! Oddly I have noticed last night and tonight a lot of Ewcm. What's up with that? Has anyone heard of spotting before ovulation at all? I think a couple of you mentioned getting Ewcm just before AF recently so maybe that and constant spotting does mean AF is coming. Just wish she'd get on with it!

Aww thanks hun, cold is really kicking in now! You know I've just wanted to be in the best health for conception but since we got married in march there's been one thing or another! Hope this cold doesn't delay ovulation. As for my friend as she put it she just gonna keep plodding on and try for the best, I think I have persuaded her to start using opk's from now on! Your completely right about the mind playing tricks because I haven't been using any bc since Isaac was born for 14mths just been charting and avoiding sex mid cycle and I never thought I was or felt pregnant. The last 4 months or so especially the first 2 I was convinced I was pregnant! I am not going to trust my mind/body in the near future

Oh LORDY!!! My MIL is just a bitch. She is rude to me, she acts like she doesnt know how to speak English when she is around me even though she has lived in the states for 30 YEARS!!! They live about two hours away so will often come up on weekends to see the fam. They would always just assume they could stay with us. She was always so rude and take over my house. When I would cook dinner for all the fam, she and my SIL (who is pregnant and 21 now) would leave to go shopping and take my son and not come back and totally dis our dinners! She would break stuff(like my fridge, expensive stuff, not little stuff) and lie about it, then get caught red handed when my son would call her out! When my son was born, she would totally disregard our wishes in regard to his care. She would cover him with 5 blankets and he would be drenched with sweat. We would take them off and she would sneak back in the room and put them back on him! tons of stuff similar to that. At this point, it is a rarity that they would be allowed to spend the night becuase they just dont appreciate it. Why should I put myself out and inconvenience myself for someone who doesnt even appreciate it???!!! NO WAY!!!!
