Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

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 :dust: 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. :flower:

I hope not - your chart looks great with the dip and then rise at 11dpo and still up now - I am hopeful for you still. Maybe lucky 7 for you, and I will be next month (although still in this month but feel like she is coming still...) GL - fx for your bfp :)
 
one of my packages arrived today- some cb hpt - NO urge to test what so ever. only - only if she doesn't come by sunday or even monday morning I think! just be a waste now.

hope everyone is having a nice day xx
 
ohh posey I just overlappe my chart with yours and my temp today is amost what yours was on 9dpo. If I dip tomorrow and rise like you maybe, just maybe we might both get lucky??

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!
Need some response.....

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!!
 
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 :thumbup:)

Thanks so much!!! I did temp before but i stopped.
 
Still waiting for Ms. AF to arrive or not. I spoke to my doctor this morning and she said let's wait until Monday, and if AF still doesn't come then do a blood test. The clomid i know lengthens your cycle, but she also said that your AF should come. So still the waiting game here. I took a test this morning and it was a BFN....i'm still saying hopeful and trying to be positive. Just sooo hard, feel like i've been waiting for years for this result. Just want the 2 lines to come!!!
 
not sure if you ladies can even see it took another and got the same small bfp =/ ugh

yay BFP for Bree!!!!!! so happy for you love!!!! :happydance: :happydance:

as for me nothing...again -sigh- had bleeding gums when brushing and heartburn that woke me up last night. -sigh-

Haha I'm not counting it as a BFp until I test with another brand! Haha I had Internet cheapies that came with fertibella and I took one last cycle and it was negative but I've taken three this cycle that all say positive BUT I've heard that they are famous for false positives. So I'm just going to wait an see if af comes if not I'll go buy another brand and test with those! (: haha I'm not going to buy any until I am ready to test ha I'll use them all before the third! Im addicted! Haha anyways well af didn't show yesterday I'm assuming! So that's a good sign! Maybe your hcg just won't register until later! Fx for you! I'm sure you will get your BFP soon! You deserve it! Still praying this is our month! :D

awww you are so sweet bree! I feel out this month though but im trying to stay positive and have faith! Still no AF and no signs of her either! I guess we are both playing the waiting game for AF! Still praying for us both! :hugs: <3

I'm joining you ladies in the waiting game. i'm 18dpiui and still no AF or any signs. so let's see what happens.

Awe well fingers crossed for you! I hope you get your bfp this time!!
 
Well my temp is still up there but I don't feel any signs/or symptoms! I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. I have a heavy feeling in my uterus but other then that nothing. How is everyone doing!? Jessika when are you testing?
 
Oh gemmy I didn't even know you could overlap like that :) fx that your temp spikes after a dip. Do u think I should do a hPt tomorrow morning if Af stays away today? Or would it be too soon after possible implantation? X x
 
I'm sure it is possible as you will be 14dpo and it will have been 4 days since your possible implantation dip!!! I would test - I will at 14dpo if no sign as my lp is usually 12/13 days. Last month it was only 10 - that's why I expect her tomorrow. How long is your lp usually?
 


oh and i cant reach my cervix today either...seem to be having more watery/lotiony cm rather than watery cm ive been having for the last week.

im just tired of waiting to find out. im okay with being out this month if we dont get our bfp but im so over waiting for either a bfp or af! i need something to happen! :dohh:


UPDATE: i think i ovulated later than i thought i did. i believe it was 4/16-4/17 instead of 4/14 like i had charted. so that would make me around 12dpo instead of 15dpo and that could explain the bfns ive been getting! if thats the case then im still in it!!!! :happydance:

Jessika - Can't wait to hear what happens. :)


I'm here waiting to test....time seams to be standing still...it's a funny fealing. I'm really excited to test and am praying for that BFP....but on the other hand I am kind of scared. I am scared to be let down by a BFN...sorry ladies if this doens't make any sense. It will be my first time testing so I am having weird feelings I guess..

Oh, it makes perfect sense. I know the feeling. The anticipation is killer! But I hope that when you test, you'll see two beautiful lines and share it with us so we can celebrate your BFP with you. :) Can't wait to hear how it goes.


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

I would wait until at least 10DPO, but the longer you wait, the more likely you are to see a BFP since the HCG needs time to build up in your system.


Best of luck Bree and Jessika!

Over getting my AF yesterday, feeling more positive off to get my second round of blood tests today for my doc app next month.

Keep at it girls!:thumbup:

Good luck this cycle! I hope you get good results from that round of blood tests. :)


I see the line too bree but like you very wary of evaps . i don't know the brand you are using but i had them on ics. gl for the third!

Jessica .... is it morning for you yet??? Can't wait!

Ella - sorry she is coming but great pma ! Im not far behind you, my temp is totally plummeting, i am so out but never say never.

Oh no, I hope that those temps bounce right back up for you! You're not out until AF shows and I'm hoping that she won't show her face for another 9 months! Really hoping that you get a BFP this month, Gemma, and that feeling in your stomach is just the beginning of a bean snuggling in for the long haul (it could be if you are sitting at 9DPO, like FF thinks you are).

But if she does show, I hope that cycle #7 is lucky for you! :)

Hi ladies
May I join, im not sure where I am in my cycle, but occording 2 cm and cp. I should have o'd on march 27th ( I kno it is highly unlikely that I got preg already, but want 2 b in the habit of keepin track, I haven't even had my "tru period" yet, jus my usual withdrawal bleed :/
I don't understand if my lately feeling are down 2 body returning 2 norm after pill :(
It could b my egg ?? Or not lol ok.
2 days after stopping my pill I got. My usual withdrawal at. Lasted 4.5 days as norm, then one week later i had spottin. 1st day it was pink, second day it was brown (not much either day, just when wiping, had c
Had consistent heavy feeling in lower ab- since about a week after stoppin pill.
Dull backache
Few dizzy spells when standing
Then for 2 days after spotting I had the most convincing at symptoms, but still no at?? Really think it was jus from my body adjusting as according 2 fertility app I am only on CD 20? But we want to ttc again :) it took me almost 9 months ttc (1st 2 months NTNP)
In a way, I don't want af 2 show up, but if it does, then at least I kno ov has returned 2 norm :) so I'm seeing a positive in any outcome really :)

Hi Kimberley!! Welcome to the TWW!! I hope this wait ends in a BFP for you!

If you just got off the pill, it could take your body a while to readjust. Your hormones might be out of whack from the pill, so the symptoms could be your hormones trying to regulate. You're right though, 4DPO was kind of early for pg symptoms.

I hope that your TTC journey this time around is short and sweet. :) And that's a good way to look at things! Either way, it's positive!

Good luck!

Hey.
I´m supposedly 6DPO (though I never did see a +OPK to confirm.
From 2DPO I´ve been feeling a bunch of symptoms.
Queasiness, headaches, backaches and twinges in my boobs and belly.
Yesterday at 5DPO, at about 11pm, I started cramping slightly down there, and this morning it´s still going on. Not really painful, just a bit uncomfortable.
Could this be implantation cramps? (here´s to hoping).

You never know. The symptoms you've been feeling since 2DPO probably are due to your progesterone levels rising from ovulation. The CM is probably due to the hormones as well right now. CM after ov can be different in every woman, so what could be a sign of pg for one woman could just be normal every cycle for another. It's a hard indicator to use.

But the cramping could be a sign of implantation (or gas, but I'm hoping it's implantation). I would watch your symptoms for the next few days and see if they change at all. I hope this is the beginning of a wonderful 9 months for you....


Hi girly whirlies, just saying hi. Bree, I think I see your BFP too!!! :flower:
Wendy, darn that AF :( Good luck with IUI this cycle, you so deserve a BFP.
Big hellos to Maria, Ella, Sarah, Gemmy, Lil, Laura, etc etc.
Afm, I was back to temping/charting this month (took March off), and while I know that my chances aren't the best of conceiving naturally, dare I say my chart looks promising?! I thought for sure AF was on her way 2 days ago when I dipped, but the last two days my temps have been high-ish. I'm expecting AF any day, tomorrow is likely, but boy I hope she stays away. (This morning I was super restless/woke up an hour before I took my temp for about twenty mins, I did manage to fall back to sleep, but still... so I don't know how accurate today's temp is, but it's nice to look at :))

GL to everyone, let's get some more BFPs on here?! xo

Hi Carly! Your chart is looking awesome! I say, you never know...a natural BFP might be in the cards for you. :) Definitely keeping my fingers crossed and praying for your BFP!

Unfortunately i'm still waiting, i don't know what's worse, getting a BFN or the AF...i just want to confirm 1 of them...my doctor says to wait this week through and we'll do a blood test on monday....so more waiting!! i don't feel any signs though...

Oh, I hate limbo. I've been in it twice and neither time has been pleasant. You just want to know either way...and nada. So, I hope that you get answers soon. At least there's some light at the end of the tunnel....Monday is coming closer and closer. :) Hoping AF stays away and you get a blood test BFP!!!

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

I am so glad things are settling down cycle-wise...I've got a lot of hope for the next couple of cycles. DH will be around and hopefully the opks and the vitamins will make a difference. Getting ready to get my cinnamon on too, for CM's sake. :) We'll see how it all works out, but I'm praying for a BFP soon!

Thanks Lil! Sorry to here that saline test was painful, but I guess it's good that your doc is being really proactive and trying to figure out everything. I have faith that your next BFP will be a sticky forever baby...maybe babies! Oooh... wouldn't twins be exciting?


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

Hi Gracie! Welcome to the TWW! I hope it ends in a BFP for you.

So what do you mean by just had an ovulation. How long ago was it?

Sometimes the levels of progesterone in your system rising can cause nausea/vomiting, even without pregnancy. It also could be that you don't have enough hcg in your system to get a BFP just yet. I would wait a few days and hopefully then you'll see those two beautiful lines!

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!!

It's hard to tell. It could be due to AF coming, it could be pg, or it could be gas. I would say to wait a couple more days and monitor the cramping. Does it move? How intense? What does it feel like? How long it sticks around.... Keep us updated and let us know how it goes!

Hopefully it's a good sign for you! Keeping my fingers crossed!! :)
 
https://www.fertilityfriend.com/journal/revTWFzPu.pngThis is me overlapped with a random pregnant chart from ff. They got a bfp at 14dpo. Don't want to get hopes up but feel like there is more of a chance still...
 
Thanks ella, that was a lovely long thread, I can't do that multi quote thing.

How are YOU?? xx
 
Oh gemmy I didn't even know you could overlap like that :) fx that your temp spikes after a dip. Do u think I should do a hPt tomorrow morning if Af stays away today? Or would it be too soon after possible implantation? X x
