The Two Week Wait Begins

View Full Post

I promised myself that this time around, I will be very patient. I even promised myself that I would not test until 3 days after AF due. I also told myself that I would not get my hopes up. Yet here I am--- just 1DPO (I think) and VERY HOPEFUL. I don't want to be disappointed. How are you doing in you TWW?

@longedfor You're definitely still in! Just keep repeating your own mantra ;)

@janmommy I really hope AF doesn't arrive today!

As for me, still spotting, a little more today than yesterday so I feel it has to be AF on her way. Still not heavy enough for me to consider it the start of a new cycle though. And my temp was back up to 98.1 this morning, so that doesn't make sense.

I do have to share this with you guys even though it didn't result in a happy ending.... When I got pregnant at the end of November, I got AF right when expected and had 3 days of regular flow. I had no reason to think I was pregnant and hadn't even taken a pregnancy test because I assumed I was out. The only reason I found out I was pregnant was because I started OPK on cycle day 8 and it was positive. Knowing that was way too soon to be ovulating, I took a pregnancy test and that's when I found out I was pregnant. It obviously ended in a miscarriage, but I'm afraid that's evidence that I'm not normal and I might be one of those people that still gets their period in the beginning of a pregnancy. So I think even if AF comes, I may throw a pregnancy test in there a few days after just to be sure. Wishful thinking, I know!

PS, where are you guys located, if you don't mind saying? I just noticed I often wake up to messages that came through in the middle of the night, so we must be spread out! I'm in Arizona.

How is everyone today?

@jmvd: if I had your experience, I would most certainly be testing AF notwithstanding. Have you tested yet? Isn't a temp rise a good thing?
I'm actually not in the USA.

@ lonfedfor: Hope you are doing well today

Me: AF didn't show yesterday. I had some very light brown spotting though so looks like the start of things. I also had really terrible cramping this morning. I feel much better now though. I'm not feeling the exhaustion many describe so not hopeful. I do have breast tenderness but that's been fairly intermittent.

HOPE she stays away today too! If so, I'm testing tomorrow.

Major cramps today, full force AF :( I may still test early next week some time due to my history, but I'm not holding my breath. I tested yesterday at 10DPO and got a BFN. Although my temp was still high today. I don't get it!

@longedfor have you started testing?

@janmommy, what DPO are you at now?

Hey ladies

@ jmvd: sorry about your BFN.

I woke up this morning excited to test as I was already two days late and was greeted by AF :-(

Just checking in

@longedfor @jmvd: have you tested???

I've started a new cycle and am CD 3. I don't have much home for this cycle as the timing won't be right :-(

I started a new cycle as well, as this weekend was definitely AF. I tested this morning just to be sure because of my history and got a BFN. On to the next month!

@janmommy, hopefully you can at least get some BD in during your next fertile week!

Hi janmommy! I am just starting my fertile window. So the 2WW is just around the corner. What about you?

Hey

I don't temp or use opk but based on ovulation calculators and CM I'm in my fertile window.

Pretty sure today is 1DPO! I had a positive OPK Saturday and Sunday, and also had some left ovary cramping yesterday, so I'm pretty sure I ovulated yesterday. I took an OPK this morning just to see and it was negative, so my LH surge is over. Now for the dreaded 2WW and symptom spotting like crazy!
