two week wait anyone else??? - Page 3

[Woodland]

THANKS willoLevin!

you really gave me some hope. I am on cd 41 with no sign of AF. I am not temping yet and I have no idea which day I ovulated. I tested yesterday and got a BFN. So I am hoping a BFP is still possible for me this cycle, it just hasnt shown yet. I am thinking I will test on Friday if AF hasnt shown. :

Hi mamas Mind if I join? I dtd the two days before O and now here I am 8 DPO waiting. I had a temp drop yesterday and today my temp is back up and higher than before. I'm not trying to get preg, but I'm not trying to avoid pregnancy right now either. Truthfully, I'd be REALLY happy to get preg I took a test this AM and got a BFN. I'm going to try to wait until Saturday or Sunday to test again. The waiting is so hard, huh?

[willoLevin]

I certainly hope that my "good" story (about getting a BFP on 22 dpo) is worth feeling reassured about.

I guess it depends upon when the embryo implants (duh!) but also where in the uterus it implants. Plus some women (or the embryo? not sure!) don't generate as much of the hormone being measured. Who knew?

I must add that I really felt different when I actually was pregnant. Not like the little "feeling different" kinds of things I thought I felt the first few months we tried (plus all those months of marriage when we were still using protection but I secretly hoped!), but definite "early signs of pregnancy" feelings. Sore boobs! That's the one I really noticed.

In 2003, right before I POAS and got the BFP, I was sure I was about to get AF because it felt just like my usual PMS. Every time I went to the bathroom I was sure all was lost, especially after 2 BFNs at the "normal" dates that "normal" women got results.

Right now, I'm feeling positively queasy. I think I've had enough nausea already in this 2WW to equal my whole pg in 2003. I'm either pg, or I've got a serious virus.

But today, add purple nipples (not totally Crayola, but noticeable change) to my previous list of mild cramps, nausea, fatigue, needing to pee, and hunger.

I think I am.

I just really don't want to waste an expensive test! Sheesh, am I cheap.

Welcome, Jilian!

Hi all. I am am in the 2ww and driving myself crazy! Am not sure when I O'd (I haven't been charting, but so far am estimating O based on cues like ewcm, and so I think I am anywhere from 6-11 dpo. I prematurely POAS yesterday (got a BFN) because I was reading all the pregnancy symptoms on twoweekwait.com and convinced myself I could (might) get an early positive test. I have been highly unusually crampy and bloated for a week. But no breast pain, and that I would notice b/c ds nurses all night still. Oh well...

After the BFN, I moped all morning and felt generally depressed all day. When DH came home, he noticed my glum mood and asked what was wrong. I told him and he said "That's why I didn't want to buy those tests so soon! Please just wait longer and try to put it out of your mind! Plleeeaasssee!" He threatened to hide the one other stick I have. I am finding it really hard not to obsess though, because I don't have many obligations this week, so I am "free" to obsess.

Well, that's my rant. Glad to read about others obsessing!

[illinoismommy]

8 DPO here.... waiting until 14 DPO before testing IF I don't get my period. I am going crazy as well but trying not to.

[starbound25]

well the wait is over, af just showed up
its really light spotting but it has to be af right, you wouldnt get implant spotting when your period was due?
I"m sick of mother nature!

[didkisa]

Starbound25--I'm sorry AF found you! I wouldn't start counting it with spotting, tho'. They say to wait until the flow really starts...some women DO spot when pregnant. If it goes away, you might still be in the game!

I am on 17 dpo today, another BFN. I looked it up in TCOYF and it says I might have a corpus luteum cyst--only other explanation for it. UGH! Going to call the midwives today and set up a blood HCG test to see for sure.

I'm definitely obsessing with you.

It is so hard to wait to test. I couldn't when I was pregnant with my son. I had two negatives before finally getting a positive.

Last two nights, for me, it has been quite painful when ds nursed. (He only nurses at bedtime now.) Felt like (I imagine it would feel to have) clothespins on my nipples.

I wonder if breasts change less with a 2nd pg? Especially as ds still nurses? Because I am pretty sure I am pg, but I haven't had the incredibly achy bb's that I had the first pg!

I'm POAS today....i'm so nervous!!! But i can say that this time i feel totally different...i've never poas before...but the other time i thought i was pg, didn't feel like this....i feel nauseous almost all of the time, my jeans are getting tight on me, headaches, no AF and it's 6 days late, honestly, i have every sign of pregnancy except for larger, sore breasts and darker nipples....but they are erect all of the time, practically....so they are definitely more sensitive....ugh....i'm so nervous...my ept box says i can take it at any time of the day...so i think as soon as i have to pee really bad, i'm going to take it...i got the twin pack, so if i get a bfn, i can re-test in a few days.....anyways, keep your fingers crossed for me. lol

[starbound25]

congrats to briansgirl

UPDATE: I may still be in the game, the af I thought showed up last night never really came, I had pink on the tp for two times and that was it, now I"m feeling sick to my tummy and very bloated so I may still be in the game! going to test tomorrow or sat if I can hold out!
6/16 update, I'm officially out of the game af game on like a lion today )-:
I think we are done ttc

[Jilian]

I'm still here too, 11 DPO now. My luteal phase is usually only 10 days... No cramps yet. My temp did drop a little bit, but still well over the coverline. I'm not sure what is going on. I tested again this AM : only to get another BFN. I hate the waiting!

[NaturalMommaof3+1]

Crossing fingers for you!! : : :

starbound25, good luck!! : : :

I'm only 2 days past O, but am feeling naucious sometimes and have to run to the bathroom, especially after I eat. Has this happened to anyone so soon?? I just ate a whitespot burger and 2 bites in had to run to the washroom, yet I was starving before. :

[didkisa]

Starbound25--so sorry you're out of the game! AF sure is mean that way...getting our hopes up, and just when you've shown a little excitement that it might actually happen this month, BAM! She shows up and sticks it to you, laughing all the way! :

For those not tuned into The One Thread, I had 6 BFN HPT at 18 dpo, and a blood test that was BFP (HCG was 21). However, AF showed with a vengence Friday evening. Whatever all that means...guess we'll be trying again next month!

[NaturalMommaof3+1]

Never mind my silly question about naucia after 2-3 days after O....it's just nerves. Lol! I'm fine!
Hope everyone else is fine! Thinking of you and sending and : : :

Day 3PO for me. Still hoping for pink dust!


didkisa, so sorry about AF showing up late! what a disappointment! Extra dust for you for this month.

come join me!

I'm new to the broads, but this fits me! I was suppose to get AF today and no sign yet. I'm so scared that I'll wake up with her. That would be sad. We lost our first back in April and we are really wanting to be pregnant again. Trying to be hopeful. :

[NaturalMommaof3+1]

Thinking positive thoughts for you! : : : :

[Jilian]

I think my tww has come to an end, my temp dropped WAY below my coverline today and I'm having lots of cramps. AF should be here any second now. Good luck to all the mamas still here!

[brianasmith]

Hey ladies.................I'm new to this thread. This is my 4th DPO and I had a big temp drop this morning so I went chart surfing and found two charts that look exactly like mine and they both had a positive reading!!!!!!!!!!! I can bet that I'm most likely not pregnant but its fun to wish.

Good luck to all ladies that will be testing this week We will all be pregnant before we know it. I really love this thread and checking up on the girls who post and to see that they have become pregnant. Thanks so much for whoever started it.
