Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[IceQueen86]

No problem, however.... I got a BFN - I am not pregnant, it just goes to show that you can have every symptom under the sun and still not be.

Take care

I totally agree with you, same thing happened to me. When i wasn't preggo i had all the symptoms you can have and now when i am, i don't have much going on. That's why symptom spotting sucks and don't really tell us anything.

goodness I'm tired! I normally don't go to bed until 2-4a.m. lol waiting for bf to finish cleaning fish tank and changing water so we can go to bed! If AF doesn't show up tomorrow I am testing, wish me luck! *praying*

dovkav123 - thanks hun! I didn't do anything different this month, i just didn't stress about it anymore. I was just thinking that i will try to BD at the right time, but if i missed it then oh well..my time will come when it supposed to come and while ago i stopped taking punch of supplements i was trying, now i only took V-D3, folic acid, RRL tea and i did Castor oil packs almost everyday before O and i started working out. I see you do castor oil too...how often?

I I have done castor oil for 2 cycles so far.: every day in the end of AF and before O. The second cycle AF was not crampy at all. I do beleave that castor oil heals every med. condition you have including infirtility.
Yes, I am using a regular termometer for BBT. I didn't buy the basal one because it was so expensive. It is silly reason. The old one I left at home, I thought I'll get preggo in Europe, changing the climate. I often have temps 36.7-36.8 after O.

Hi ice, glad you remember me! You helped me sooooo much during my 2ww, giving excellent advice and support as usual. I've been good, thanks, getting huge! Not finding out sex, we want to keep it a surprise

Baby dust to the rest of you waiting to test!!! Hope ice has started a trend here xxx

Of course i remember you, i was suprised to see you here in tww thread Can't believe you are almost 19 weeks already, time flies! Are you in pregnancy thread or you are just doing your own thing?

I hope i started a trend here too, very excited for women who are getting ready to test soon!

I'm on a pregnancy thread for babies due in December, but stayed subscribed to this one to see how you, Ella and the others got along! It's amazing how close you end up feeling to the other ladies in these forums just by reading their stories and being part of their journeys. Hope Ella follows you with a bfp soon!!

I hope so too. I had an encouraging dip yesterday and then a nice rise today. Let's hope that means something good. I mean, it would be nice if these symptoms I'm having (including waking up in the middle of the night to pee) had a reason behind them, like pregnancy and not just lots of progesterone... But I guess we'll see. I'll give it three days and then I should be able to tell which way my cycle is going this month.

I'm still hoping that the HSG has made it nice and sticky in there and we'll get a sticky bean this month. (They told us not to TTC this month because of an increase in the chances of a ectopic and the early temp dip did make me go OMG for a minute...but we'll see how it goes).

KeriAnn - what's the news???

dovkav123 - you are right about castor oil. I've been researching it so much and how found many stories where women said they had 2 blocked tubes and after using castor oil their tubes were unblocked etc. Amazing. So keep using it, it's good for you. I have no idea how much bbt costs in Europe, i didn't need it when i lived there, maybe you can buy it from ebay with free shipping or let your family send you your old one.

Hoping girl 2 - Yes, i love this forum! We become close because most of us are going through the same things. And who else will understand you better and can support you during this journey then other women who have the same problems. I should check out some pregnancy threads ...

DBZ34 - Wow Ella this is some serious temp spike!!! Love it!! C'mon BFP!!!

LovingMyGirls - chart is still looking good! When are you planning to test again?

 

[LovingMyGirls]

Hoping girl- I agree with you Ice has been amazing with the helps and tips and threw this 2ww

Keriann- whats the verdict? HMFX

DBZ- that's good news with the dip/spike

Dovkav & Ice- Castor Oil ?? is that something I should be looking into?? ive never heard of it used for ovulation or menstral cycles

Btw- I ordered CB digital tests online that will be here Thurs. (one day before af is expected)I am so sick of staring at a test for a line to appear. But of course I have one more test its an accuclear so I will be testing Wed.. It drove me nuts not to POAS when I woke up this morning, Im driving myself bonkers. I still have no symptoms at all

Seriously, its so nice to have people who I can talk to and vent about this. You guys mean more to me than you know. I refuse to tell family/friends im TTC because of the extra pressure and plus last time I told my friends and my neighbor I M/C so that was tough news to relay. Btw I lost my mother, father, and my sister, and both sets of grandparents by the time I was 18 years old so I have very few family members Its SOOO nice to be able to count on you guys.


P.S. in US basal thermometers are 9$ for good one, which is cheaper then some pregnancy tests sold here. SO weird how different countries are, so interesting to me, someday I will travel the world and get to experience all cultures. But for now ill stick to the beach, which I love I will be gone for a almost a week. I will miss you guys, maybe ill DL the app on my cell

 

[MummyDonz]

I am booked in to see the specialist on the 16th August. I guess my situation is just post pill problems. No ovulation in 8 months so hoping he'll prescribe clomid

 

[Mimzy3]

ICE!!!

omg I'm sooooo happy for you!!!!

How have you been feeling!!? Have you tested again, when is your first Doc apt!!! I bet DH is threw the roof!

 

[KeriAnn.ttc]

well it's day #3 and STILL NO AF! I keep checking every 5 mins to make sure she doesn't show up...I am waiting until my bf gets off work tonight(7 p.m) to get a test so it's probably going to be a veryyy long day. I am really tired today and my stomach hurts(been constipated past 3 days)TMI-sorry ladies. and normally with af I'm the other way around, so I'm taking this as a good sign even though it's very uncomfortable! Good Luck to everyone I will definitely be reporting back today; hopefully with good news!

How have you been feeling!!? Have you tested again, when is your first Doc apt!!! I bet DH is threw the roof!

Hey youuuu I'm great, it's still hard to believe it, i'm still in shock lol. I haven't told my DH yet, i will tell him this weekend when i test again, want to be 200% sure. And then i will have to book an apt and have to go and get an insurance etc. A lot of stuff to do.

How you been??? I was just thinking about you today..wanted to come and check on you to see how many weeks you have left before you meet your little one. You don't have much left anymore So exciting!

 

[IceQueen86]

Totally understand the shock! I remember staring at my test all the time just making sure there really was two lines and I wasn't going crazy lol. You're strong being able to keep that secret and not test again till the weekend! I'll be sure to keep checking in to see how it goes.

I've been good. Although feeling the comfortableness of the third trimester. Ready for it to be over with and meet my little guy already!

 

[athensfroggy]

Yay! Congrats to those with a bfp!! Really hoping this is a good sign. About 5 days away from AF. Do most people start testing 5 days out or wait for the missed day?

 

[wendyk1]

WOW!!!! Yahoooooooooooo!!!!


Congrats, Ice! I know you have been TTC for awhile now. I don't come on B&B much anymore, but I stalk from time to time and I am glad I saw your post!! So, so, happy for you girl!!!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Sorry!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Hi ladies,

Sorry I was MIA for a while. I had a nervous break down then traveled for a while. AF showed a couple of days ago. I'll check in more often now and reply to some posts during the week. I hope there were some BFP's while I was gone!

I'm so sorry to hear that zero! I'm glad you're back though and hopefully feeling better. A new cycle = a fresh new start. GOOD LUCK!!!
