Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[sarah_anne]

HI ladies – I’m currently 11DPO…and getting very impatient…. My Luteal phase is usually only 12 days so if AF is coming I’ll know by Friday…. If it doesn’t then I’ll test on Sunday… but don’t have a great feeling …my only symptoms are back pain and very very slight sore Bbs. I ovulated on Day 12 (I think as I use the ov strips) and DH and I BD’d only twice- once on Day 10(pm) and Day 12 (am) so I hope we got it somehow…

One can only dream…… Last night before I fell asleep, I pretended I was preggers and put my hand over my belly and I kept repeating in my head….. “Goodnight little bean….I hope you are there and hanging on tight….Mommy loves you”….. It was a nice feeling…. Think I’m going to do that more often… Even if I’m not preggers – it’s still nice to have hope that one day it will happen (and make you feel like you are a fertile being). Am I crazy?

This morning I went for my yearly physical and they poked and prodded and did the pap and got 13 vials of blood taken! ouch

I am right there with you at 11 dpo and due to get AF this Saturday. It is hard to focus on anything else. Good luck to you. Sending baby dust your way!

yes exactly it's hard to focus on anything else..especially work! Good luck to you!! My symptoms are also ones I have before AF so hard to tell...but definitely much more backache than usual...

I can honestly say I have never paid attention to my body as much as I am now and can't tell if this is normal for me or if they are in fact pregnancy symptoms. I started getting a metallic taste yesterday and today and don't think that has ever happened before. I also took a hpt yesterday and didn't see any faint line but when I looked at it again today, I noticed a faint pink line. Do you think that's an evap or a positive? Keep me posted on you!

What is the sensitivity of your tests? Try to find a 10miu or 25miu one and test again! I had a metallic taste before too and that was a first big sign for me! The faint positive a day later could be an evap or a positive! The only time I got a BFN, a line NEVER showed up after, so it might be a positive!

Ladies,

RE found some bad things, he even called me ahead of my appointment time to tell me, hubby and I are now going to see another specialist. I cannot get into details yet, but its not good as of now. Please keep me in your prayers and thoughts, the earliest I could get in is a month from now... I will be around this form, as its been very encouraging for me and I will need the support of ladies who understand this process. I have to stop all medications for now, until we know what it all is.....

PRAYERS sent your way.... a is looking over you and your husband.

hugs

I just tested again tonight and got a light pink line within one minute of taking the test. Told DH tonight! So excited to get a definitive BFP!! Thanks for your support!

Congratulations!! I'm so happy to hear that you got your BFP! H&H 9 months!!

Being on progesterone this cycle has been an interesting experience. I had my normal TWW symptoms start once the meds upped my progesterone levels, which was fine. Now that I've ovulated, whoa-my goodness...my bbs and back are killing me and the nausea is kicking in as well. I suppose, on the bright side, I know what to expect when I finally get that BFP. Now I'm just waiting...I've got another 5 days to get off the meds, then I'll have AF, and then we can get back to TTC.

Congrats Hoosier!! That is great news!!

This is one long waiting game isn't it Ella? At least you know you are not alone. Things are looking good for you and lots of luck to you

AFM-No smiley surge today from me but don't want it yet as hubby working a long day. Still got to bd tonight though as if it is the same as last month it will be tomorrow (cd14). Am I right that the bding the 3 days prior to the surge are the most important. Last month we went more crazy the day after. I'm trying to get more in before that face but as we have only every other there has only been two! I'm thinking tonight and the morning but hope he is gonna be ok with that as he is working a 16 hour today and tomorrow. Argg it stresses you out worrying because this time is sooo important. Also but worried about cm - it's just wet now. It had been creamy and stretchy 2 days ago. On the other hand hope I didn't miss it. Oh well. Sorry for the slight ramble there

Hi Girls , just read through all the posts and just wanted to send my love and prayers for you Babyfeet

As this is a 2ww thread and i'm not actually in the 2ww yet so i'm not going comment until I am, so having a lil break, speak all soon and good luck BFP all around fx

Will be reading all your threads tho x

 

[keriwak]

I think I have the best looking chart I have ever had,
I hope it stays this way..Wish me LUCK~My Ovulation Chart

 

[Nada A]

so i still had spotting today in the morning and was only very very light..and when i read a post someone posted in a different site it gave me hope !
a woman was experiencing spotting from 7dpo ! and then she got her BFP 7 days later! ...
tomorrow my af is due if it didn't show up i'm definitely doing another test !
now my boobs really hurt and i have constipation and gassy sorry TMI
now it's 10 Pm in my city and i've been wiping a couple of hours now there's no spotting..

Sore boobs, constipation, and gas are GREAT signs Nada!! I have a feeling this is your month!!

I talked to my sister today and she spotted for 14 days (off and on) before she got her BFP with my beautiful niece!

u'r giving me hope sarah so today it's 14 dpo Af still didn't show up and there's no more spotting there's only white discharge ! i had a test and it was BFN should i call my doctor or wait one more day ?

I should add that we bd'ed only 3 times during my 'fertile window', and the first time was 5 days before I think I ov'ed... so only two times to really cross my fingers for, and that does not include the peak day (we couldn't bd because my father-in-law was in town). Soooooooooo, not feeling too hopeful, but you never know until the damn witch shows. xo

Don't worry about that Posey! DH and I only BD'ed ONCE during my last fertile window (mostly because I had no idea if/when I would ovulate after my miscarriage) and I got pregnant! We BD'ed two days before FF says I ovulated, so we didn't do it the peak day either. FX for you!!

Thanks Sarah this helps And guess what, y'all?! My temps ARE finally rising, they just didn't rise when I expected them to (the day after the last day of ewcm), it took a couple days to get up there. I should have been more patient I will strive for that, lol! That being said, FF says I ov'ed on cd16. Hubby and I bd'ed on cd10, 13, and 14... so we'll see. I wish I had got one last try in there

Is someone able to give me a bit of input for next month (assuming the shows this month)? Much like last month, my last day before I Ov'ed I only have a very scant amount of ewcm, and then the day of Ov itself I have creamy cm (no ew): should I still 'try' on the day AFTER my last ewcm (so my Ov day), even though I have no ewcm? I thought the couldn't survive in creamy/sticky stuff, so I haven't been bothering. What do y'all do? I have preseed to use for next month, so maybe I"ll use some of that when I don't have ewcm (and even when I do have ew!). I just don't want to be 'missing' the best times... sigh.

and hugs for those still in the tww, and those whose bodies are playing tricks on them and making things stressful (hang in there, Nada!). I wish mother nature would just go easy on us and give us our dearly-desired BFP's. Here's to hoping! xo

Last cycle, DH and I only BD'd 3 days before ov and that worked(ish), so don't give up hope!

They always say to keep BDing, even after you think you've ov'd because you might be off by a day or two. Plus, the day after ov, you could still catch the egg, so I would definitely keep going, even if it's turned to creamy CM. So, BD the day of ov and the day after too. The sperm are less able to swim through it, but they still can, so don't stop just because of that. There have been ladies on BnB that claim their CM never got to watery, let alone EW, and they still fell pg...

It's possible that you notice the EWCM, go to bed, ov at night and by the time you wake up in the morning, ov has happened and your CM starts changing. But make sure you cover all your bases, if you need to, next month. I'm going to hold out hope that you won't need to because you'll be pg this month.

Thank you for the input, I will do things differently next month... and I will use preseed next month too, so hopefully that will help the swim! xo

Enjoy your 'break' Laura! Have a wonderful vacation!

Sarah, I read all your posts, I'm glad to hear things are progressing well

Afm, ff says I'm 4dpo. Waiting waiting.

Gemmy, I have read that once the surge happens, then get busy busy busy because it will be a day or two, then you Ov. That being said, sperm can live 3-5 days (some), so bd'ing before your LH surge is good too. Basically, getting busy a lot is good... cover all your bases I was 'stopping' too early, I missed my peak day this month by a day or two, so if I'm not pg. I'll get busy longer next month. GL to you and happy

Wendy, how are you? 4 or 5 dpo? Feeling lucky this month?
