TWW is doing my head in

[Elski]

FF says today is 3DPO
ahhhh thats it!

can in hibernate for the rest of the TWW?????

There should be some kind of clause within TTC that says you can self-induce a coma during the TWW.... oh and wake up with a BFP at the end of it

So whereabouts are we all in the TWW? I'm day 24, I got +'s on my OPKS last thurs and fri so I'm guessing I o'd last saturday? Which would make me 6DPO today

Im only 8DPO mostly kept myself busy with work today. Still managed to poas twice tho, oops how did that happen? Nothing, of course. Bored of the TWW. I think the first wk I am a little bit optimistic but then as AF date gets nearer optimism wanes and it just becomes tedious. Watching celebrity big bro for distraction tho
*Babydust*

Anorak - D3PO, oh dear, you really will be a dribbling, rocking mess by the end of it

Ok so it's after midnight so that makes me dpo4. DB and I went away for the night to a casino and concert. Back at hotel. Bed is too soft and brain won't shut down from the milkshake sugar we had! DB is crashed- in zombie mode so I sit in the dark playing on my phone and try not to go nuts. Felt crampy today. I am going to spend the entire TWW questioning evey little thing my body does? Yup I am!

 

[threebirds]

Its crazy isnt it?
9DPO & my chart is rubbish
Hang in there every1 x

Feeling really headachy. This sucks far too much......When is the best time to start testing? I am 4 DPO now, and I am not sure when to do a test.

Well 10DPO onwards if you're using sensitive tests that detect small amounts of HcG, but really you should hold out til AF is due if possible (hahaha, I crack myself up when I give advice that I can never stick to myself!!)

 

[anorak]

Haha! I will hold out. Argh, this is annoying!

Haha to test dates! AF is due on 1/30. FF says my test date should be 2/5! Like that's going to happen! I mail ordered a bunch of the sensitive ones and my OPK kit came with a standard one. I am not even going to say I will hold out till the 30th....if i do i will be suprised....

still feeling a bit crampy today but with all the food at the casino I need to good poo so it might just be my tummy-lol (sorry for the TMI!)
I also noticed that i was very hot on the drive back. Mind you we just had 6 inches of snow and it is 15 degrees F out! I had the car windows open driving down the highway! Maybe a sign or am I making it up? It has been 18 years since i was PG---I don't remember these things! LOL

Anorak----here is 5DPO! or ?

 

[Elski]

Bonnie, don't even get me started on symptom spotting! talk about a minefield. What's even more frustrating/disheartening is when you are CONVINCED that the cramping/nipple tingle/frequent peeing is a 'sign' but then AF comes and it turns out to have been nothing

Today my symptoms include dull AF-like abdo pain (but not only could this be AF or a 'sign', I have bad endometriosis so it could be that too *shakes fist at sky*

I must say though, I don't think this is going to be my lucky month....

Everyone had good weekends? Done anything fun? I had a lovely dinner with my best friend and her wife last night. She's CD3 and they're starting donor insemination this cycle. Poor girl will soon be a TWW/SS-obsessed fruitcake nutjob like us!

Hi ladies, I so know what you mean!!!
Minefield is putting it lightly!!

I just try to keep positive through this time - but I know it/af always lands up slapping me in the face!!

How do we keep our minds off this TTC stuff when its the only thing we really want!!!

Haha, I don't do the whole positive thing, I'm a miserable cow who always predicts the worst case scenario

I wish I knew how we could all put it to the backs of our minds. I guess maybe we obsess over it because we spend our lives having it drummed into us that time runs out at 35+ so we feel like we're up against the clock?

 

[skweek35]

Oh hell yes, well that and the fact that the days leading up to the 35th Birthday last year my biological clock suddenly started SCREAMING at me!!

Sitting here with the music channel on - Kelly Clarkson was just on --> she has snippets of 2 girls dancing on a Cape Town beach - made me soooo homesick - Sniff sniff!!

I am sooo hormonal at the mo!!
Could that be a sign again?? I'm going mad - bring out the straight jacket

 

[Elski]

Right, valium all round!

I've never been to SA, I bet it's lovely eh?

 

[skweek35]

Its gorgeous!! All my friends down there are complaining about the heat!! 30'C+ everyday for the last week!!
Yup and here we are freezing our whats-its off!! hehe

 

[anorak]

I can't take this!!!!!! I am still at it like the clappers just in case! I am knackered!

 

[Bonnie1990]

I know! I just want to know already. Is that so much to ask????
Grrrr

 

[Elski]

I can't take this!!!!!! I am still at it like the clappers just in case! I am knackered!

I'm feeling decidedly AF-like today, D10PO today but not gonna bother testing as I know the witch is coming. That's the worst part of the TWW, when you know she's coming but she's still a couple of days away! How's everyone else doing today?

 

[skweek35]

Morning ladies,
I'm at work, copied off everything I think I will need for today and just trying to find the energy and motivation to get everything else sorted for today.

Had really bad bad ache this morning and a few cramps, but they are all gone now.
Anyways I had better get back to work. Got a busy day ahead of me.
Hopefully get back on here later tonight
Have a good day.
