2wwers-anyone experiencing any symptoms yet ( real or imagined!?

[snadaska]

CD 25 here 2nd cycle ttc

i usually have longish cycles so wouldn't expect AF yet. today  i had nausea in the afternoon and am still experiencing it. im trying not to get excited i know its really early but i just cant help thinking it might be a sign! 

is anyone else having any symptoms? anyone else going crazy with the wait??

[kismetbaby]

Me, me, me. . .going crazy!  I'm only 2dpo, so obviously I am the worlds most impatient person, LOL. And today I felt so, so tired. . .of course there is absolutely no way I could have any symptoms yet.  But doesn't stop one from thinking about it.

I've decided the 2ww (or at least the 10 day wait) is the worst, b/c there is no excuse to pee on anything!  No more OPKs and no HPTs yet. I mean, that hasn't stopped me, but still, I feel so ridiculous when I can't hold out till 9dpo to POAS. Sheesh. I just got a 3 pack of FRERs from Amazon, it's gonna be hard to resit the siren call of those suckers.

Anyway, not holding out a lot of hope for this cycle, as I am just getting back to cycling after being pg and then BFing. . .but even the slightest chance puts me in this endless waiting game. 

[Ababi]

Hi ladies! I am going crazy in the 2ww too! This is our 6th cycle TTC #1, and I am 7dpo... Having a great ride on my emotional rollercoaster: "I know this definitely feels abnormal... oh, wait, maybe it's nothing. Probably not pregnant... oh hold on that feels weird!"... (DH thinks i'm crazy)

Symptoms (real or imagined) so far: :)

3 dpo - extreme all over stomach pain, probably horrible gas, but i've never felt anything like it!

5 dpo - nauseous at bedtime, lasted a few hours and was better by morning.

6-7 dpo - constant gas, stomach rumbling all night. Just feel a little strange, not really up to walking around for hours, not a huge appetite and absolutely no libido! Also, I was woken up by sharp burning pains in my uterus area that lasted for maybe 10 minutes... Also, got kinda emotional today over my husband splurging a little on a gun... pretty normal for me though at this point in my cycle.... :-P

Here's a link to my chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/309ff6

 

Good luck and baby dust to you both! Let's get some good news this month! :)

[kismetbaby]

Snadaska--when will you test?  That nausea sounds like a goods sign and if you are past CD 25 I'd say test! (Unless you know you Oed late.)  But I'm a total POAS enabler so don't mind me. Hehe

Ababi--Your chart looks good!  Hope this is your month. When do you plan to test?  I need to stalk other peoples tests since I can't POAS for awhile! :)

[Ababi]

Kismetbaby - I tested this morning (8dpo, way too early)... couldn't help myself. BFN. :( Although my bbs started getting sore yesterday on the sides and underneath. And yesterday I had copious amounts of creamy CM... more than usual. And last night I had a really hard time sleeping because my back was hurting. Not entirely unusual for me...

So who knows... we keep on waiting like usual. :)

Good luck! Keep me updated on how you guys are doing! :)

I am having tons of symptoms but I cannot tell if they are all in my head, side effects of the clomid, or really prego symptoms. The problem with me is I always have pregnancy symptoms. My chart looks good but I just don't know at this point. BFN dpo 8 9 and 10. Here is my chart if your bored.  www.fertilityfriend.com/home/zoesmommy

[kismetbaby]

Ababi--sorry about the BFN, but yeah, it's really still early.  I can never decide whether it's harder to hold out on testing or to see those BFNs.  But I never can wait.  Your chart is still looking good, so I'm hoping for you!

AFM: I'm not real hopeful, I mean my cycles haven't normalized yet (this is only my 2nd PP ovulation and I am still BFing), but it's kinda fun (and kinda crazy-making) to wonder.  I have been feeling "off" lately and I think it's hormonal, but not necessarily pg hormonal.  Anyway its too early to feel any pg symptoms yet.  I have had some odd moments of nausea though and a weird headache yesterday.  Again though, I think it's just my hormones being wacky.  

[Ababi]

ZoeJane's Mommy - your chart does look really good! your temp is steadily climbing, and it doesn't look like it did that on your other charts (not that i'm the charting expert or anything) :)... Hope thats a really good sign for you! :)

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

Thanks Ababi.....tested this morning and BFN, but I am not surprised at all my temps dropped and now my symptoms are really leaning toward AF coming and not pregos. I put a call into my doc this morning hopeful she will prescribe me another round of clomid without having to set an appointment.

Hi everyone! I am 7DPO today and this morning my temp shot up. I know it's early, but here's my chart if you want to take a looksie:

http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/gemmine84

I've had tender nipples and frequent urination the past couple of days. The tender nipples thing is fairly common for my cycle, the frequent urination not-so-much.

We'll see how it goes.

[Ababi]

Gemmine - that is a pretty crazy temp rise! Looks good! :)

AFM - Haven't been able to sleep the last two nights because of crazy back pain.. didn't know if it was a symptom or just my crazy back... until this morning! Tested and got my VERY FIRST BFP EVER!! :) :) :)  It's faint, but definitely there! :)

Here's my chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/309ff6

 

I am soooo happy! 6 months doesn't seem so bad now! :) Sending a bunch of  and s your way! :) :)

That looks very good!!! keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Oh and congrats again Ababi......................just in case you read this thread before our TTC in our 20's one.

[catheleni]

This is my first time getting a true positive on OPK, and we did the deed two days before and day of predicted ovulation.

Baby dust for me please!  We've been TTC for 18 months!  Never been pregnant!

I have had all the symptoms, but I always do!  I am only 4dpo!

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

I hope this is your month..................keep us updated.

[kismetbaby]

Ababi--yipee!  That's awesome!  Hey, if you want post a pic pf your test. . .I love seeing those two lines.

catheleni--Good luck! Hope this is the one for you.

AFM--pretty sure AF is about to start. Boo.   I didn't really expect anything this month, but there is always that little hope.

[snadaska]

kismetbaby-took a test-negative  :(  Oh well next month it might happen  "POAS enabler" LOL!! I'm like you, I never can hold out until 9dpo. I know the test won't work you know 4dpo (maybe 3dpo, 2dpo  :-)     ) when it states clearly on the directions that it won't but I just can't wait.

ababi- you got the 2 lines!!! congrats! keep us posted.

Also the imaginary nausea was replaced with very real menstrual cramps. AF is likely on her way. Here's hoping next month is the one.

Good luck to everyone. I hope this is your month!!!!!!  keep us updated

[kismetbaby]

snadaska--sorry about your BFN. But you know what they say, "it ain't over till the red lady sings"  :)  When I got my + with my son, I was sure that AF was on her way, I had cramps and everything. But I took the test just to prove to myself that I didn't get pg that month. . .um, yeah, I had. I didn't get a + till AF was 2 days late.  So you never know. . .then again, I guess its easier to be a pessimist about it.

I am so weak when it comes to POAS. I was almost gonna dip one this morning (5dpo. . .seriously how silly am I), but then I saw a little pink on the tissue and figured, that's it, I'm out.  So I didn't POAS.  Have had some very light spotting and mild cramping all day.  I'm sure AF is around the corner, but of course since she didn't actually show, there is that tiny voice saying, maybe. ..implantation bleeding. . .

anyway, I'll update tomorrow. Glad we at least got one BFP here!

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

Well POAS this morning...............................BFN. My temp did go up today though so hopefully it gives me another day or two to test before AF shows up. I was so sick to my stomach last night that I could barely walk then cramping all night in bed. So this is what I was thinking and I know it is a long shot, but what can I say I am a dreamer. Typically implantation is 5 dpo to 10 dpo but in a rare case it can happen 3dpo to 12 dpo, so lets say I am a rare case and I got implantation yesterday so I would not get a BFP until the earliest tomorrow!! Or maybe I did ovulate on cd 18 (which at one point FF guessed that) and yesterday was 9 dpo, but that also means we didnt dtd very accurately. Either way I have not lost hope. And I am crossing my fingers for the rest of you guys to!

ZoeJane'sMommy- Your temp rise looks great!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.... I have a hunch this might be your month! 

AFM - 3 tests yesterday, 2 this morning, and all positive! (although faint)...  Even a Clearblue Digital test, which seemed scary to take, was positive! Not too many symptoms, except slightly sore bb's, a tiny bit of nausea, and an extremely painful back. :( I can't sleep and barely feel like i can make it through the day without falling over! :-P

I called DH right after my first BFP yesterday and he sounded pretty excited, but then he called later and asked if i took a "smart one" (digital..lol)... i told him  it was positive and he got super excited, speechless, and said "why didnt you let me know?!?!"... evidently he didnt gather earlier that a line is a line, no matter how faint! lol... He thought the first test must have been an error. :-P silly boy. 

Anyway, just wanted to check in and update! I've got fingers crossed for all of you! 

[ZoeJane'sMommy]

Thanks Ababi I really enjoy your support and positive attitude.
