Hubby just deployed the other day, so I downloaded the "pink pad" app to keep me occupied...

Cycle #: 3 (4 months)

 

DPO (Days Past Ovulation): 18DPO

 

When will you test? 22DPO, previously tested on 14DPO

 

Any plans for Mother's Day? not yet, maybe vegas...

[dakipode]

Not in 2WW yet but just want to stay current with this thread.

aHikaru: What is the pink pad app? 18DPO sounds pretty promising..., thinking good thoughts for you!

AFM, I'm not sure how long I'll be able to hold out this time so I'm not committing to a day/date.

Mother's day? Eh, not really a holiday to me so no plans, probably will be cleaning out the garage or getting the swamp cooler set up or some other mundane chore.

[wannabmomkt]

I am so glad to have found this board! :)

I'm going to have to check out the pink pad app, I just realized the other day the amount of apps for pregnant women. Any good ones you guys suggest?

Also are there any suggestions for pregnancy tests? All I've heard is that there are inexpensive ones on Amazon, so I do not know which way to go.

I really appreciate the chart at the top, I wasn't sure when to test. My fertility clinic said to wait until 14DPO, but I think I will start with day 10 just because I am anxious!!

Oh and mothers day has been a rough day for me ever since my mother passed, but how wonderful would it be to have a BFP a few days prior? That would definitely change my perception of mothers day.

and to all of you!

It's on the iPhone, it's the best selling charting app, i've been bored without hubby so I update it every now and then. 

AFM: Don't know if i'll test on 22DPO, I kind of want to wait longer...

[texasgirl11]

I'm 2WW also!

Hoping I get some symptoms next week. 

3 DPO 5-3-12

Testing May 14 or 15. AF is due May 14 (Hoping she is a no show).

The waiting is killing me.I have been trying to keep myself occupied with my "Wedding" 6-9-12. 

Plans for mothers day? Going to the in-Laws. Hoping I can give her a baby surprise gift. I know she will need good news after her mom passed away 3 weeks ago. 

[firsttimettc]

Cycle #: 2 with charting, 5 since TTC

 

DPO (Days Past Ovulation): 8

 

When will you test?  I tested today, BFN :(

 

Any plans for Mother's Day?  My mother will be here for mother's day because I'm graduating two days before! I was really praying for BFP so I can tell my family when they are here visiting, but i don't think it will happen.  

[nattery]

firsttimettc - 8 dpo is nothing! Don't let yourself get down! Hang in there.

Me:

This is my second cycle ttc.

Dpo: Who knows! I just arrived from a trip with my friend. I was supposed to O' on monday (first day of trip) but that doesn't seem to have happened. Temps remained low, spiked on Thursday, and went back down today. Now that I'm home maybe I can get some temps that will tell me what's going on. I am thinking we missed our chance this month though :P

When will I test?: I might wait till af doesn't show since I am irregular and was away from partner when I think I may have O'ed.  :P
 

[baby4makes6]

Add me to the 2WW please

I am 2 DPO 5-4-12

Testing on May 16th if AF doesn't show her ugly face

[nearlyelated]

2WW starts around now.   AF is due two weeks from today.  According to my chart I am now 3 DPO.

Hope to see lots of BFP's in this thread.  Looks as though there are some tests happening soon!

[Tropicalfever]

Hi everyone can I join?

Im Cycle 2 ttc # 1 since March. This 2ww is driving me crazy I'm 11DPO I tested this mornin BFN  also tested on 7DPO it was also negative. I dont have any symptoms apart from serious lower abdominal cramps  fromm DPO 5-8. I becoming really desperate.

No plans for Mother's day yet though it happens to fall on my mum's Bday

[dakipode]

Oh, oh, oh... I think I might finally be joining you the day after tomorrow... After 25 freaking days! I'll let you know for sure.

aHikaru, you've been quiet lately. Where are you with testing? I'm so curious since you were waiting so long...

[Tropicalfever]

Thats GREAT news Dakipode!

[nattery]

Yay Dakipode! Glad you get to get on with your 2ww soon!

I am still feeling blah about this cycle... since I ovulated right in the middle of a week-vacation with my friend (grrr I was scheduled to O' the day I left which was somewhat more promising but nature has a cruel sense of humor sometimes). I have very sore breasts this cycle, which is unusual for me, and also very sharp cramps / pain in the left side of my body around my ovary area. I am worried that my endo (which has been in remission for 5-6 years) is coming back :( I am technically 9 dpo right now but am not really allowing myself to even start to think that a BFP is a possibility this month, although we did manage to DTD 3 days before O. If my af is late I will test but because I've been late lately, I won't get that excited, even then :P. I will say one positive from this month is I don't feel driven insane by the constant desire for a BFP since I think it is so far out of my reach.

Good luck and baby dust to everyone else!

Hi everyone!  I am new to this site, so all the abbreviations are mystifying me lol... so not to sound TOO ignorant, but what does 2WW mean??  

[dakipode]

Hooray, I'm finally here! I didn't know I could get so excited to start an agonizing two week wait! We BD'd a lot so I'm hoping the results will be fruitful...

I would like to say I won't test until 18 DPO but I'd be lying... I won't test this week though, for sure. Two weeks from now I've got a baby shower to attend and I was thinking I might wait till after that. I think if I get a BFP before then I might be too excited to want to share the news with everyone there and I don't want to ruin my friend's party.

[wannabmomkt]

Hey just realized I hadn't posted on here again - tested lots of times  and all were BFN. 

Trying again next month. 

Good luck everyone!

[Shelza3]

Cycle # 7

DPO 11

Testing: Today (BFN) again on 13pdo (wednesday) if i dont give in and do it tomorrow...

[nearlyelated]

today will be 10 dpo, but AF isn't due for another week, I'm out of town until tuesday night, so the earliest I would test would be Wednesday morning, but I think I'll wait until Saturday, as it's DPs birthday.  Better chance of a bfp, and a nice gift if it is.
