Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

Millie- i sigh at your struggle cause it is so frustrating to be that far out from ovulation and to not be pregnant, I am wondering and I am sure its in here I just havent went that far back, how do you know you ovulated. My RE says, when you actually ovulate it takes 14 days to end the cycle your on. This should result in a pregnancy, or a menses. The opk's show a surge and this is very frustrating cause basically you should ovulate unless your brain does not release the hormone to release the egg and all other sign like cm can take place and the egg is just hanging out waiting for the signal. I am wondering if you dont have a slight hormone in balance. Can you share with me ttc story, so I don't ramble about something you mentioned earlier:hugs:
 
Crampy and heavy this afternoon but less and less pinky/brown CM. I swear I had a twinge on the right for a second today... *sigh*

or not.. who know.
 
so you are on cd 29

Yup! My "old" cycle (pre thyroid mess-up, burst cyst and termination) was 29 days but when I got messed up I was having cycles up to 36 days. As they got my meds/hormones more in order that started to come down, last cycle was 33 days after 5 cycles of 34 ro moredays. I was holding my breath today because I got pink CM yesterday and I also got news that they had finally got my thyroid "perfect" and so I figured that this cycle I'd be potentially back to my old 29 dayer and so I was really upset and figured the pink cm was a tell-tail sign that that was going to happen.

Now today is day 29 and nadda. I did a nice old poke around to see if I was starting to bleed properly but CM is getting lighter and lighter. This morning there was a rusty pink and this afternoon it just looks like dirty off-white... so whodafunkknows what's going on. Three more days until day 33...

Crampy-pants this afternoon, heavy brick in my uterus for about two hours, a little twinge on the right and then nothing.... and then I almost ate all the food at my local Thai place (I ordered so much food they put in four fortune cookies in my take away pack because I think they thought I was having a party). Cramps now gone. Boobies are full, not too sore...just a little near the pits. Nipples feel normal. I'm going crazy I tell you.
 
So 14dpo bfn! From around 11dpo til now I've had light spotting. I also had cramping from 11dpo to 13dpo. Anyone had this before? I was pretty sure that if I was pg that it would've surely shown up by now? Although I know some women get their bfp later than this. Can anyone shed any light here? Thanks ladies X
 
TTCbaby- Thanks so much... and yes that would be hard hearing after a loss as well. I know that life isn't fair and its all on how we make it and only we can make ourselves happy. I know it sounds corny but its so true. That's great that you took a break and actually are glad you did... If I don't get a BFP within few months I may have to do that.. Its consuming my life and I just want to enjoy this process not dread it!! I hope September is YOUR MONTH!!! :hugs: :hugs:
 
Babyhead- Its certainly possible that it hasn't showed BFP some ladies it takes up to 18dpo so give it a few days before you get upset. Also I was wondering are your spotting more than a few drops of blood?? Maybe you have late implantation.. FX for you!!! :flower:
 
Millie- Sorrry about that witch showing up !! just think least your getting closer to ovulate again.

Vivian- GL to you.. Im sure that's stressful not knowing what going on but withing few days you will have your answer and im hoping its BFP..... We really need a BFP to keep us girls knowing that SOON it wil be us!!!!
 
I'm having a similar situation. Was EXHAUSTED the last four days (O'd Wed of last week according to two violently red lines on my OPK, BD'd every day five days before and including Wed)- but put it down to starting a new job with different work hours (was on a 9 - 5 and I'm working 10 - 7 now... oh the joys of TV production)... sore BBs on and off, (not unusual for this TOM) with AF due Monday 26th. After almost NO CM I now have this thick white goo (ssssssoooorrry TMI) when I go to the bathroom and it's a little bit off color. I put all of this down to AF. Then I thought... well it's a bit early for break-through if I'm not due to start until Monday... but then my cycles were all over the place and I went from a nice predictable 29 day cycle (incidentally TOMORROW is 29 days) to between 36 and 33 (coming down since doc got my thyroid hormones back in the normal range last month). When I got preg the first time I remember having a similar situation and thinking "oh I guess it's just break through bleeding" and then a few days later realizing my AF was a day late, emergency run to a late night pharmacy because I was on the road with work and I couldn't bare not knowing, POAS and BOOM.

So what do I make of all this now? AUGH. Just AUGH.*tear*

I'm sorry honey but it all sounds very promising. I'm CROSSING MY FINGERS FOR YOU!!! :hugs:

Thanks HUGS... update - nothing today - poas this morning... nothing... but no more bleeding :wacko:

:hugs:
 
Babyhead- This is what I can tell you about your cycle first do you take opks or do you temp or both. If you for sure ovulated then it can take 7-10 even up to 12 days for you two implant then it takes 2-3 days after that to produce enough HCG to show on a test. The hcg doubles every other day therefore if you implant day 2 will prolly be 10-20 then it doubles up from there. If you only use opk's even with a positive and cm that only means your gearing up not a for sure that you will ovulate. you could ovulate several days later its only the norm to o 24-48 not a must. you will o will your body is ready so that could be part of the problem, or you didnt ovulated and its taking a while to sloath off the old months stuff to begin another cycle. The temps are prolly the closest to know, but if you have only charted a few times then it still could be inaccurate as well. I am also, wondering if you check cp again bot a for sure of ovulation but another indicator when the time may come.
 
I knew a girl who ovulated confirmed by doctor, her implantation didnt happen for another 12 days confirmed my doctor got a postive blood work 14dpo but neg urine until day 18 dpo, and she is having a happy healthy pregnancy. If that helps
 
Hi! How's everyone doing?

I'm 9dpo; the past 4 nights I've had very bad nausea to the point I've had to lie down and shut my eyes until it passes sometimes it'll pass then a few minutes later hit me again. I've also noticed dark blue almost protruding veins on both of my breasts. And visiting the restroom a few more times a day.

Anyone else experience these things halfway through TWW?
