Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[Dani402]

Dani402-I could never resist testing (far too early) so when I ran out, I never bought anymore. I will buy one if AF hasn't come by next Monday.
Fingers crossed for those waiting to test-I hope you all get BFPs

FX for tomorrow! AF is either due on 3rd of 5th (app in IPhone says 3rd, but I think it's calculating based on 28 day cycle, and I vary from 32ish to 28...so average of 30 day cycle)... Hesitant to test tomorrow with FMU 'cause if I get a BFN I'll just be sad...but so far no spotting, and I usually get spotting a few days before AF... so maybe that's a good thing? Also been feeling quite bloated/full throughout the day, whether I eat a lot or a little...but it could be that I've just eaten too fast, I guess...? Guess we'll see tomorrow...FXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Moose – GL honey!!! FX on 12th cycle! Did you ?

Annbolina – sorry got you! Try to do something nice for yourself & I always take a BFN with something “new I’m going to try this cycle”. It gives me something to look fwd to, I get just a little bit healthier & my body gets even more ready for …

Wendy – Aw, sh**! I see your chart so you don’t have to explain. I’m so sorry honey, I know you (& I!) were very hopeful this cycle! It may just take a little while for everything to set in (Clomid, etc). Just please make sure you are getting healthy EWCM w/the Clomid, K? Or you can really juice it up “just in case” w/gf juice & mucinex next cycle (30% women on Clomid may experience hostile or nonexistent EWCM when you really need it). Keeping it all crossed for you for next cycle honey!!! Hope you had fun in Vegas…

Bree – FX for you its not evap!!! there are other women who have short LP’s that do some things to lengthen, maybe they can chime in bc I remember the short FP tricks, but not the short LP tricks (or am I getting them mixed up?) Well, I hope you don’t need it! (Btw, you may have to override FF as it moved your ov day & I’m trying to stalk here! LOL…)

Gemmy – FX it’s a good dip too!

Kismat – I’m so sorry for BFN, but its not over til arrives in full-force?! Some people just implant late. Are you temping?

Lishes – argh, another one, so sorry for BFN & !!!

Prepilot – GL & FX

Jessika – GL & FX

Sarah – how are you doing other than having sarah kicking you? Hope things have gotten better w/uncle & grandma

Ella – dammit, that darn is taking all my girls out!!! Do you want me to fly over the UK & ? Argh, I’m sorry honey. But yes, now your cycles are at least back to “normal” & so glad DH will be home this cycle . Sunshine does wonders for the soul…(that’s partly why I moved to FL!) You have great attitude & you are definitely bound for a BFP soon, honey…

Dani402 – if you don’t want to see BFN, try to hold off until 12DPO. If BFN, then tests again in 2-3 days – GL!

Fitmommy – the feelings are totally NORMAL even if they do sound "a little bipolar" I know - don't worry! (we are all pretty much like that!) FX –

Kimberleywatts – if you want to confirm ov & take charge of this one, I would defin recommend temping honey! It will confirm ov & a whole host of other things you’ll learn about your body when temps are up (sore boobs – progesterone) & when they are down (estrogen – acne, AF, etc)

POSEY – Ooohhhh, I SO HOPE this is it for you – how freakin COOL would that be?! God works in mysterious ways, honey, so I’ve seen much “weirder” (that’s would be a “good weird”)!!! That dip at 10DPO looks promising too!!! GL & FX &

Dashka – how you doing honey? I’m going to have to go stalk your chart today

Laura – yay for baby kicking! Can't wait to find out! (hope you have a girl this time!)

T2BC – hope you are doing well, honey!

A big to everyone else & anyone I missed – it is inevitable these days! I will put my info in next post bc this one is way too big already! to ’rs & to 2WW’rs & to ALL!!!

Wow what a lovely post LilSluz, you thought of everyone! I am with Gemmy on how optimistic you are! Reminds me to scrape myself from off the floor after my AF and focus on the next cycle. Your right if you don't laugh you cry, and sometimes a bit of both at the same time! 16th cycle of trying now! Gosh!

Jessika and Bree, this is killing me!! I hope it is the I check in at the end of everyday to see whats going on, it like the latest news!

Prayers and nice things for everybody and hundreds of

Hope thats enough for every one!

Hi, 6dpo here.. waiting to test but not exactly sure when i should test. (o'vd on the 24th)

Hi, your due to test the day b4 me, what's Uluru usual cycle length?? Mine is 29 days, x

Hi, 6dpo here.. waiting to test but not exactly sure when i should test. (o'vd on the 24th)

Hi, your due to test the day b4 me, what's Uluru usual cycle length?? Mine is 29 days, x

What's your usual cycle length, (stupid predictive txt) if u have a 28-29 day cycle, then test 9th may onwards. I'm due 2 test on the 10th

Well before i had my DD my cycle was 28 days, but I just got my first AF in Feb. since having her and that cycle was 37 days. So Im not exactly sure anymore, lol. AF is due to appear on the 4th so.. I guess I will just go from there.

 

[gracie0401]

hi iv just started trying had morning sickness symptoms but took a test and it was negative but just had an ovulation so waiting to test again fingers crossed

 

[mylilone]

Ok Ladies!!! I have a quick question. I took Femara CD 3 to CD 7 2.5mg and my RE monitered my follciles till CD15 I hd 15mm follicle and on CD 18 I had a follicle 20mm and was asked to take the ovidrel shot on 24 APR. Its been exactly 8 days I have cramping near my left ovary. I am not understanding if this is due to my AF is going to come or is it some good indication. Any help would be appreciated!!!

Baby Dust!!

 

[fitmommy]

LilSluz, you couldnt have better described it! It feels a little 'bipolar' and contradicting to be so excited yet so scared to do the test...thanks for confirming that I am not the only one that goes through this. Does it get easier? This is my first time in the TWW...

 

[LilSluz]

Gracie - & welcome! You want to "try" to wait until 12DPO (I know, some will gasp at the thought...) if you can to test bc you need to give that baby time to implant (at 6 - 12DPO) + a couple of days before a test will show positive. Even then, you may need to repeat a few days later if no AF - GL

mylilone - hmmmm, could be implantation pains but IDK enough about IUI (was it?) to know if there's anything particular to that procedure that could cause it? Sounds good tho - FX!

Fitmommy - So you feel kinda like this: (perfect isn't it?) Well... everyone is different. Some it gets worse first bc they think it will happen right away & it doesn't, then better when they figure out what works for them. Others it gets better each cycle as they settle into it & then for some it gets worse bc of the repeated anticipation & time going by. Honestly, I find it better the cycles that I'm really busy or really relaxed (which is a little bipolar sounding itself! ) There are some cycles I couldn't wait to test but when it got to the testing date I refused to do it bc I was too afraid. But I hope you don't have to stick around as long as some of us to "figure it all out" - bonne chance! (GL)

Bree - hope you feel better! When are we testing w/a different test? I've got Fx for you!

Jessica - if you BD'd 1 time before ov, but you think you ov'd later, how many days before ov did you BD (w/the later ov)?

You know, ladies, "back in my day" (last year) before I knew about the 2WW, I never stressed over it? I just did the deed in the middle of the month & then waited for AF. I waited over 1.5 wks to test after AF was late once - wait until 25DPO to test?! Unheard of!!! (shock & awe , gasp...) Just had to share that moment of insane realization as it came to me...

(yes, I was preg but mc'd)

Hi there, no i don't temp. i used to about a year ago and i stopped. how do you even begin temping?

Sorry I was such a downer this mornin! I'm better I have a headache ): and I'm starting to breakout along my jaw line! Ick!! I think im out this month! I have a heavy feeling down below its weird I don't know how to describe it. I've just been down today! Not feeling very well I'm super tired too! Anyways af is suppose to come on the 3rd I think? So I'll test the 4th!

 

[LilSluz]

Hi there, no i don't temp. i used to about a year ago and i stopped. how do you even begin temping?

Hi Kismat - you can click on my little chart below & sign up there - I think FF gives you a free 1st month if I'm not mistaken? (its only like $20 or something for a whole year after that - I forget; or you can purchase less time for less)

All you have to do is take your temp every morning (pref around same time) with a Basal Body Thermometer (BBT) & enter it into that date on your chart. You can get a BBT pretty cheap from Amazon, but you can start w/a regular one until your BBT gets there, or you can just go to local drugstore - about $10-$15 (oops I 4got to check which country you are in, but you get the point).

You can start with just temping & recording CM & any tests you do (like OPK's or HPT's) & if you want to record more (symptoms, etc) you can go from there. It really is very easy & they have a little video if you want to get really technical about it, but it can be as strict/hard as you want it, or as laid back/relaxed as you want it, it's up to you... You won't regret it & its super easy once you get the hang (like in a matter of days) - it really tells you a WEALTH of info about your body, TTC, your hormones, etc.

(when you start charting let us know & we can help you w/putting into your siggie )

You don't have to apologize - this TTC biz is chaotic & like a roller coaster! (or like a see-saw with a devil on 1 end & an angel on the other?) But may I add that your temps don't show AF yet (at all), so keeping FX for you!

So, you're making us wait until Friday? Doesn't "Thursday" have a much better ring to it? I'm j/k... (hopefully you are smiling now)

Actually it's like $45 on sale for a whole year, which is why i still just have the basic membership... but you can buy less time for less money.

Haha oh gosh that did make me laugh!! and yes yes it does! An yes I agree about the seesaw thing! I hate the two week wait I've never been more emotional! Ugh! Haha and I hope not! But according to my temps it also thinks I ovulated like two days ago! Oh well this is my first month temping and I wasn't temping at the same time everyday in the beginning so everything was all messed up! my fingers are still crossed and thank you for all the kindness!

 

[bree801]

im soooo exhausted. its so hard to stay awake. I'm getting ready to go to sleep. no new symptoms really. a little dizzy tonight and sick tummy but other then that nothing. my body is on fire i feel like I'm getting sick ]= i changed my ovulation on ff i just changed it to when i got my positive opk =/ so who knows. since i wasn't charting right. ha i have been for the past week though! i just set an alarm for the same time everyday wake up temp and if I'm still sleepy i go back to bed! anyways I'm off for the night ladies. [=

 

[gemmy]

Oh ladies i think I'm done. 36.35 this morning look at my plummeting temp. i believe i will come on either today or tomorrow because my stomach had that ache last night before sleep. i was hoping my temtemp would be high. i also think i am 10 or 11 dpo although ff put me at 9. As lp is about 12/13 I am out but i will confirm when i bleed. i will definitely try something else this time as i move into cycle 7.....

Good luck everyone Xx

 

[DBZ34]

Haven't had a chance to go back and read everything yet, but I will....

Feeling really good today. Sitting on CD2 and feel pretty good about things. It's amazing what a little sun can do. Feeling more encouraged because DH will be around for the next two cycles, he's agreed to take some vitamins, and I've got some opks coming in the mail. Positivity is running through my veins, ladies, and I'm ready to take on this TTC for as long as it takes (we'll see how long this attitude lasts. I'm hoping at least until August).

Hey LilSluz! Baby girl is perfectly fine! Lots of kicking! Grandma is okay. Not getting better though. She has good days and bad. My uncle is still waiting to hear back from his oncologist to determine what stage his leukemia is at. I just pray for him everyday at this point. Thanks for checking up on me!

 

[sarah_anne]

Quick question.

I have more CM than usual. Lots in my undies today, much more than I´m used to. Lotiony.

I´m supposed to be 6DPO (don´t know when I really ovulated).

Could this be a pregnancy sign?

It could be, but it's likely just a regular symptom of being a woman at this point since you likely haven't implanted yet.

 

[Posey]

Good morning ladies, thank you for the thoughts/hope Lil and Gemmy! Temp still up this morning, but I'm not holding my breath. I haven't had time to 'catch up' on here for a bit but I will soon, blessings and to you all x x x

Gemmy, grrrrr, I hate seeing the dips, I fear I'm right behind you... this was month 7 for me too, we're on the same trend.
