The mighty 2 Week Wait....

Hey Nigella,
I wish you and your family all the best.
It must have been a rough decision, you are much stronger than most!

On another note... Sethsmama! Hello stranger! How are you?

Hi Ladies,
I think this is the right place for me to join in. DH and I have been trying to conceive actively for the last twelve months or so with a break of a few months recently. This is our first cycle of being back on the wagon and I'm finding this week to be a little too hard to handle on my own, hence my joining you all. We have one little guy who is 3 and awesome, we really didn't think it would take so long the second time round.

This week has been driving me nuts though, I keep over analysing everything a possible symptom (had heartburn early last week which I've only ever had while pregnant, so of course that was suddenly a possible symptom!). I'm beating myself up with "ohh that could be a symptom" and "ahh that's a definite AF symptom, so not preggers then."

I'm currently feeling out of sorts this morning, can't decide if I'm hungry, nauseas, depressed or frustrated. So I thought I'd hunt out a chat room, really hard an urge to chat in real time but there seems to be no such beast and found this forum instead. So I'm sitting here typing this, feeling odd and trying to make it all better with a jar of nutella and a spoon *evil wink*

AF is due sometime around Wednesday but my cycle is a bit of a biotch and can come anytime from 28-31 days.

Ok, if I'm not careful I'll write a post the full length of the forum page so I'll stop now and wait to see if anyone is around - I'll share my Nutella

Hey Dunson33, why is it our own bodies like to torture ourselves so much? I wish I was one of those people who wrote seriously detailed journal entries on a daily basis so that each month I could go back and check that xyz "symptoms" are actually all the same for the months when I was positive I could not be pregnant. I need to find myself an all encompassing hoppy to distract my mind.

What a terrible roller coaster we put ourselves through.

Anyways, I've put the Nutella away, saving plenty for you next week. Good luck.

Hi Ladies Personally I think the 2ww should be illegal and we should just know if we're pregnant straight after ovulation!

I'm on CD27 on our 3rd month of trying after I had a MC and d&c in June. AF is due either tomorrow or Wednesday, I have done 2 tests (just the FR dipper type) so far and BFN.

My 'symptoms' so far are mild cramping starting 2DPO culminating in very strong cramps 10DPO and nothing since, waves of nausea, tiredness, thrush, hungry all the time, high and soft cervix with plenty of gobs of CM....but still with the BFN!!! FRUSTRATED MUCH?!!!!

Yep thats it, I am going to throw a pity party and we are all invited!!  Pepsicle I agree TWW should be illegal- with modern technology why cant they just say on CD1 you will definitely be pregnant this month if you sex on ____(this) day?  Is this too much to ask? alternatively the test would say "this isnt your month dont bother getting your hopes up"? Pretty sure if I invented that test I would be mega rich!!

Good luck to you 3 ladies almost testing- there are definitely some positive sounding symptoms in there- Nigella big hugs to you

Nice to 'see' you SethsMama, sorry things are hectic for you and that there's been a lack of a BFP Hope the naturopath is worthwhile and gets things sorted.

Well I'm gonna just declare myself in here even though I don't really know lol. I think ov would have been yesterday or today as I did end up having a few tinges yesterday, as well as sore boobs and crampy feelings today. Bd'd last night with pre-seed so hopefully that's ok timing. I have had barely any fertile cm the last 2 cycles- I'm not sure if it's due to the doc upping my medication which has been giving me a dry mouth- I imagine they're related. Ah well. Hopefully won't get my hopes up too much!

Hi ladies

Just wanted to "pop in" and say hi *waves*

I'm not officially in the TWW as I am just on CD1 but after a 2month break... DH and I are back on the TTC band wagon (so to speak ) this cycle and I am excited that the first day of our trying cycle has arrived (knew you ladies would understand my crazy excitement about having AF haha)Can't beleive it has been a year now of TTC though... we started for #2 in August last year

My cycles have decreased from 38-40 days to 33-35 in the last couple of months which I totally put down to the vitex and vit b6 I have been taking like a crazy person and only by noticing EWCM I think OV is earlier than CD26 too! Time to buy me some OPK's

So I look forward to chatting to some known "faces" (to which I am sorry you are still here ) and new "faces" (hope your stay is short)

I'm 11dpo today and another wee temp drop today but still where my temp is normally post-O. Yesterday was feeling sick every time I ate, its not so bad today but haven't eaten in three hours and still feeling yucky, bit worried its AF coming early

Thanks Epic! Sucks for the temp drops hope it's just your body playing tricks on you....

Snow White that would be awesome if your DS was right!!

AFM, I've been wanting to be sick all day! My body is definitely messing with my head!
