Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[gemmy]

Gemmy- yay for broadband! Welcome back. Sorry AF came earlier than expected. She really is a Sounds like you had an odd cycle, I wouldn't worry about your LP unless this next cycle is short again..Though I'm hoping that it will be a nice long 9 months.

But for reference, B6 or B-complex vitamins are supposed to be good for lengthening the LP. I've heard quite a few ladies say it worked for them.

Thanks ella, it is great being back, I missed you girls. That is a good tip with the vitamin and tbh I have got really rubbish at remembering to take my vitamins. I had been taking pregnacare and dh as well - well I think we both keep forgetting. Take that back! Just said to dh "don't forget to take your vitamin" he replied "I took it this morning". So it's me that keeps forgetting!! I am sure it had B6 in it. I am going to take mine every night and get back into routine with my thermometer in the morning!

I really really hope that this is your bfp and not ov! Can't wait to hear your next installment xx

 

[gemmy]

Gemmy - glad you are finally getting moved in so its not being held over your head anymore! Wow, you & T2BC both usually have long cycles like mine & both of you during the same month had really short cycles??? Maybe stress brought on It can really mess things up sometimes! Take a break if you need to. We'll still be here (even if we don't have a reason to be! )

Thanks Lil - where would I be without you gals on the 2ww!! I would be totally depressed thinking there was something terribly wrong but I really shouldn't be surprised that I am now in my 6th month of ttc - it does take time. It has been a long and tough ride for you yet you keep positive and keep everyones spirits up. I am glad you feel closer and have lots of CM I must say I didn't have so much last month. And I think you are right, I think stress effected my last cycle with the move. But I am much more relaxed now we are here. I am going to keep trying and keep temping though, I just need to trust it will happen when it is supposed to. Might order some preseed again. I can't wait to hear the results of your test this weekend. Keeping everything crossed for you xx

 

[dashka]

Dashka I still have my FX for you!!!

And I'm so glad your cycles are longer - that's a great thing!!!!

I can't wait for you to test Lils!!! xoxox

 

[wendyk1]

Ella - oh I'm so hoping that it's a good thing.... Fx for you!!!

Sarah - sorry to hear that you couldn't find out boy/girl yet.... rats!

Lils - so hoping you feel better soon.... xoxo Glad you are staying home to get well!

Beautiful - sorry AF arrived....

Hello to everyone I missed!!

AFM - CD 27 today and 14 DPO (possibly 13) - and no sign of AF yet... I tested this morning and BFN (used cheap blue-strip kind). I have never had a cycle longer than 24-26 days in the last few years (before that was always 28 days) Don't have any AF symptoms either - no sore bbs, no bloating, no back ache, nothing. I did cut back on the progesterone cream this month - and it's a different kind so maybe that was it... but you would think it would make AF come sooner then....And with all the coughing I've been doing - it would certainly bring it on early.... Anyway I'm not sure if I should change my 'ticker' below every day now or what... I think the meds/sickness really screwed up my body this month.... We'll see what happens..

Hello to all you wonderful ladies!
have a great weekend..
xoxo

Really hope this is it for you, Maria! I will be stalking.

 

[wendyk1]

Hi ladies,
I have been stalking everyone! Lil I can't wait for you, Maria, and Ella to all get BFP's this cycle!!!!

AFM, I am waiting to ovulate. Took Clomid CD 5-9, and today is CD 14, so I should be soon. However, I have been really stressed this week, so that might delay it a bit. I really hope I ovulate, DH and I are supposed to do an IUI this cycle!!!

GL everyone!

 

[DBZ34]

Woke up this morning with some really apparent AF-type cramps. Freaked me out. Ov isn't usually accompanied by AF-cramps...I thought I'd feel better if I had more cramps, because that would help me figure out what was going on...But the cramps are here and all I can worry about is another mc. Figures. I suppose I should be careful what I wish for. If AF shows up in the middle of a cycle, I'm not going to be impressed.

I did figure out the temp dip yesterday, since it doesn't feel like ov at the moment and it wasn't as low as it usually dips for ov. It was probably due to going from a nice warm hotel room to my frosty apartment. This morning's temp is about the same as the others have been.

So I guess I'm still waiting to find out what's going on...

 

[LilSluz]

Wow, HOLY SH** - is this a line?!?! Anybody? ? Help!

 

[LilSluz]

Oh Ella, I hope you find out SOMETHING soon, honey! Either way would be fine at this point, right?

 

[dashka]

oh LIL - as I said on the other thread..... OMG OMG OMG I SEE YOUR LINE .... LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE PREGGERS GIRL!!!! SO HAPPY - AND YOU'RE ONLY 12 DPO...SO SHOULD GET DARKER.... GO GET A DIGI - I WANT TO SEE THE WORD "PREGNANT' --- YOU SO DESERVE THIS ... I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!

 

[dashka]

Oh Ella - I hope you figure it all out soon..... hopefully it is ov....

AFM - Well arrived this morning.... I'm okay about it... Started to see spotting last night. Cramps haven't kicked in yet. The good thing is that this cycle was 27 days and 14 day luteal phase. Longest it's been in a very long time. I am hoping it's not just the meds (from being sick)... We'll see if this is a regular AF or not. Had to get out of bed really early this morning - couldn't stop coughing... and now my AD is starting to get a cold - poor thing.

Good luck to everyone still in the TWW!
have a great weekend!
xoxo

 

[DBZ34]

Wow, HOLY SH** - is this a line?!?! Anybody? ? Help!

I do believe it is!!

So happy for you Lil! You totally deserve a BFP.

 

[Lillyrose20wd]

Sarah - Oh Poo on them! Of all the things you still might not find out bc baby legs covering its little dingy? (or lack thereof!). I hope they can tell from that scan too, or else you'll have to go in again

Gemmy - glad you are finally getting moved in so its not being held over your head anymore! Wow, you & T2BC both usually have long cycles like mine & both of you during the same month had really short cycles??? Maybe stress brought on It can really mess things up sometimes! Take a break if you need to. We'll still be here (even if we don't have a reason to be! )

T2BC - how are you doing honey? I know you had that short cycle too

Wendy - Stalking the chart & looks like someone is about to ov! Catch that eggy! Fx &

Momma – Welcome! I also wondered what IAP was?

Ella – You poor thing. I peeked at your chart & it almost looks like you are about to Ov but…? Please let us know what Dr. says on Monday! Of course, you may not find out until Tues, but let us know if or if you get a +OPK! We’re all in suspense here! FX

Dashka – how are you darlin’? I hope you are felling better today – all around . Your ticker says day 27 of 27, did you or maybe going to again soon?

Laura - you still lurking Irish mama? How are you feeling? Have you gotten a scan yet? (can't remember how each of the countries deal w/scans as US is considered pretty early compared to some countries...?)

Keri - hope something comes soon so you can figure out where the heck you are in your cycle too!

Curley - you still here?

Lillyrose - how are you? What do latest tests show? Hope you are OK...

AFM, I’m 11DPO & maybe this weekend if I can’t hold out. Not sure yet. Still sick – called out today so I’m catching up on BNB then going to go say Hi to Netflix again & maybe have a short . Even if BFN, I am just happy bc I feel like I am getting closer to BFP. After GF juice & Mucinex gave me loads of EWCM (sorry TMI) & taking folate now for implantation (due to MTHFR), I think that maybe, perhaps, perchance…I am "getting closer" after 1yr & 4 mos TTC & 2 mc’s? We'll see...

TGIF! to all of those not in 2WW & to all who are or about to be!!!

Thanks for asking Lil. I have a colposcopy to take a biopsy on Tuesday and they may do a LEEP procedure that day. Not quite sure. It's been a long 2 weeks, but we are getting there. I am getting my list of questions ready to ask the doctor so that I can have a piece of mind of what to expect next. I especially have a lot of questions about when I will get the go ahead to TTC again. I don't come on here much anymore but it is nice to know you were thinking about me!

 

[Lillyrose20wd]

Wow, HOLY SH** - is this a line?!?! Anybody? ? Help!

Holy moly! I should read a little further before posting my last post. That definitely looks like a FX'd for a sticky bean Lil!

 

[LilSluz]

Thanks Ella & Thanks Dashka (again tee-hee)!

Yeah I posted on both threads bc no one was to be found on either one & I was dying for 2nd opinion! I'm going to test on both Wondfo & digi tomorrow morning bc this line is faint so I feel like I was lucky to have it come up w/1st morning urine on the Wondfo.

I'm going to "try" to be really relaxed about it until I confirm it w/a digi & a blood test (yeah right). Well, I did say "try" (I wanna really jump out of my skin & tell the whole world but I can't... )

 

[DBZ34]

Oh Ella, I hope you find out SOMETHING soon, honey! Either way would be fine at this point, right?

Yeah...I'm giving up on the guessing and figuring. I've been worried that AF is coming now, but so far there's only cm. So, I'm just going to go with it and stop trying to work out what's what. It's stressing me out. I figure if the doctor doesn't make it any clearer, I can wait it out and see if I ov soon or see if AF shows at the end of the month. Either way, I'll have some answers. But the plan for now is to BD like ov is coming in a few days and hope that works. Maybe I'll see some lines at the beginning of May.

Beautiful - Sorry to hear about AF, the cysts and taking a break from TTC. But maybe Lil is right and that's just what you need for a BFP. A break from the stress and expectations. Are you going to stick around here? I think you should...in case you need to update us with some good news.

Betty - Spotting a week before AF sounds like a great sign to me! I hope you get your BFP this month!!!

T2BC - I hope you're feeling better and that cough is going away. So sorry the got you early. She never comes when you want her to and she loves to show up unannounced. But short cycles mean more chances to get pg in a year....

Lil- I hope you're feeling better too. Whatever you were dealing with does not sound fun. I hope Netflix, tea and rest did the trick!

Gemmy- yay for broadband! Welcome back. Sorry AF came earlier than expected. She really is a Sounds like you had an odd cycle, I wouldn't worry about your LP unless this next cycle is short again..Though I'm hoping that it will be a nice long 9 months.

But for reference, B6 or B-complex vitamins are supposed to be good for lengthening the LP. I've heard quite a few ladies say it worked for them.


Sarah - Aww, that's too bad about baby keeping his/her legs shut. I hope they'll figure out a way to tell you the sex, either looking at pictures or sending you back for another scan... Keep us updated!!

Mommapowers - Welcome to the TWW! I hope this wait ends in a BFP for you! So...what's the IAP?


AFM- BFN on the test this morning, followed shortly after by a nice hot flash and nausea. I think I was overheated or something. Still no idea what's going on other than my body is playing tricks on me. Could be pg, could be about to ov...who knows. But DH and I have been making sure to BD, just in case. I'm sitting on the fence. Half the time, I'm convinced that this is all just wishful thinking and I should give it up. The other half, I feel hopeful that I could be pg. I just wish I knew a way to know for sure.

DH is getting antsy. I know he just wants to know too, but I don't know what to tell him. I haven't felt any AF-like cramps, but I'm still getting the pulling feeling at times and the strong pokes along with the many gas bubbles. The bubbles have a party in my belly every night. lol. I've never been so gassy...I've been googling like a fiend....But are these really symptoms or wishful thinking?

I called for a doctor's appointment and the receptionist was so condescending. Yes, I know if I want to confirm a pregnancy, I should take a hpt. Thanks. Too bad they don't work for me, even when I'm for sure pg. I mean, you can't have an mc without being pg, but you can be pg without a BFP, I've found. I didn't want to go into the whole thing with the receptionist, so I just said fine and scheduled an appointment for Monday anyway. Hopefully the doctor will be a bit more understanding. I just want something concrete. A yes or no answer. And then if it's a no, I want to know why my body is being so crazy.

Hey DBZ
Thank you. Feeling better for the first time today but knackered after dragging my self to work through it all week!!
Hope you get your answer soon!! Not knowing what is going on is the worst!!

Yeah I don't blame you w/testing early after that cycle?! Hopefully your cycles will return to normal too - hate when they are all over the place like that! Makes catching the eggy more stressful than the 2WW!

Hope you catch it hun! I'll be stalking
