The mighty 2 week wait

Well... Maybe this month was a few of our months...

Tested this morning at 10DPO and got a very very faint line. I'm in shock. Didn't know what to do with myself, didn't know if I was bat sh*t crazy. Holding pee to try and see if I get a better line on first response. Crossing everything little bean sticks!

Tested with a first response and there's no denying that line!

Fingers crossed for sticky beans! Now the next stressful part begins!

Woohoo Miswe and MrsMck!! Two BFPs in one month is awesome

Can I ask you both what kind of symptoms you've been having?
My cycle has been totally screwed up for the last 6 months or so, sometimes missing a month of AF, super long cycles making it hard to pinpoint O

Going off my last cycle I'm around 4 or 5 days late but haven't tested yet. Boobs are swollen and achey and have a fair bit of creamy CM and a very wet feeling down below. Kepp rushing to the bathroom incase AF has shown.
Absolutely exhausted but having really restless sleeps. Totally ravenous haha eating everything in sight but getting acid reflux so very uncomfortable.

Trying not to get my hopes up but will be testing tonight

My boobs are all kinds of painful and have been since 4dpo, so unsure what exactly it's related to but wearing a bra is even sore at times. Other than that nada. I had a heap of creamy cm at the start of tww, none at the moment. Also have felt like I have a bit of thrush almost at times.

Other than the thrush feeling though I've had sore boobs and cm before. Though not to this extent.

Good luck! Fingers crossed for you!

MrsMck & AJB if you're still around, are you ladies feeling insanely paranoid or did you feel insanely paranoid about a chemical or something else going wrong? I keep checking the test to assure me it's real. And made a dr Appointment for Thursday as couldn't go a weekend without knowing anything for sure.. am so scared it's going to end in a chemical! I'm also really early which doesn't help... 11dpo today and AF wouldn't be due till thurs...

Ditto MrsMck, I'm glad you're feeling the same though would be nice if we could both relax and everything is ok! But I feel like it's not real and if it is it's too good to be true. Trying to relax and take deep breaths! Going to try skip testing tomorrow and give myself a few days to let the levels go up.

Wish I had waited now 😂😂

I'm glad I'm not the only one! Definitely am just realising there's nothing I can do and it's out of my control. Take it day by day and we'll see how we go!

Wow, a lot's suddenly going on in here!

Miswe, "healthy" hcg levels are so different person-to-person that it's just another thing for us to over analyse. You still have a line. If FR picked up hcg at a really early dpo then perhaps your hcg could still be in naturally low figures just a couple of days later? I'm holding out for you x

MrsMck congratulations!!

AJB the exhaustion is unreal, isn't it! I never imagined until it happened just how early in pregnancy I could be pretty much wiped out.

CD 47 for me. No AF and EWCM again yesterday, with watery cm on the days either side of that. Have been going to bed at silly hours but still surprised that I literally couldn't keep my eyes open on the couch yesterday afternoon and dozed off! This afternoon I was immobilised on the couch for an hour again, sat down and couldn't summon the energy to get up.
About a week ago my legs and abdomen were aching and I thought AF was just around the bend, not so and the past two days I've been unjustifiably teary - I'll be cooking or whatever and suddenly feel like the only thing I need is to bawl about...nothing! Don't know if it's just messy cycles but today's the first time I've actually wondered if it's worth taking a FR - hadn't thought about doing so this month. I'm going into town tomorrow so will buy a single (the 3 pack is a waste because I use them all up in the one go "just making sure"!) and test Thursday morning.

Oh Miswe, I'm sorry. Better knowing for sure, in my experience with my own chemical pregnancy. My SIL had a chemical pregnancy and didn't take test or bloods and it definitely gives more closure if you do.

So sorry MrsMck. It's pretty heartbreaking. Even if it is early days. You finally get something you thought was basically impossible just to loose it again.

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm glad that I tested and got to see that BFP. Especially since if I'd waited till AF I would've never known. Which is exactly what the dr said as well. It's a small bandaid on a pretty big wound, but it did help a bit.

Dr didn't want to do bloods, since all my previous bloods have come back fine, and I did get pregnant she said we'd be better off just trying again and if down the line it's happening again or we're still not successful we'll go from there. Which I'm fine with, cause as she said bloods today would most likely come back showing that I'm pregnant, which is probably going to upset me more. And we already knew that I was pregnant.

We had a big talk (well I blubbered a bit...) about miscarriages. She said that chemical pregnancy term is horrendous. I was pregnant and it was miscarriage. Obviously less heartbreaking now that later on down the track, but it's still sad and that's ok

Well today has been a complete roller coaster of emotions. Just went to the doctor and they got me to do another test and it came back as a BFP!! So I guess it's back on then? I need to relax and take a break from testing because this is just exhausting. Getting my bloods done tomorrow so hopefully that will shed some light on things.

I'm so sorry about the BFN LillyPilly. :( I hope the next cycle is kinder to you.

Hope you are okay Miswe. Xx Even though it was only for a short time, you were pregnant and you will be again!
