Hello everyone,

It seems like this weekend was the seduction weekend. 3y ago it was for me and we got pregnant without knowing and without meds and our little boy is 2y 2months now and refusing to sleep ????.

Congratulations Emma...a girl..beautiful name. I am so happy for you.

Alex your post made me smile. Thank you. I am more rooting for you though. 9y is a very long time. I know you say for personal reasons you Don g want to try iui or ivf but I just feel it being so hard for you. I'm always praying for u and do believe in miracles.
Fingers crossed to all those that are testing this week. Including myself. Really just for fun for me. I don t think I m pregnant. I just have some cheapies. I tested with them and never got a +opk neither. I only had 10 digis. Those cheapies are just cheapies. I bought some pads today too. Since my cycles have gotten very very shorter, I'm waiting to ov this week. We would like to try iui next cycle. Have to contact insurance to see if I'm cover. We Don t know yet but will keep everyone updated.

How do you keep calm while tww? Last few months when I've become hopeful again and tracking my ovulation, the tww is crazy for me. Right after ovulation I get anxious, and I try to have hope up for bfp, but I can already feel burden of bfn on my mind and it's just so exhausting. I try to keep my mind busy with other stuff, but it still wanders back to thinking about pregnancy related stuff.

Nasake- I am the same way! I’m only 1dpo and already trying to pack my calendar for the next week and a half! I don’t let myself symptom spot until 7-8dpo- reminding myself that implantation usually happens 8-9dpo. I prepare myself with tons of cheapies because I know I’m gonna POAS almost every time I pee from 8-11dpo. After 11 I quit testing and count myself out. Otherwise- I just roll with the anxiety and the crazy... not much else to be done when out fear and excitement take over.

AFM- as mentioned- 1dpo. I successfully BD’d O day, and both days before!!! This never happens with my hubby’s low drive. I’m so excited and really hoping for that BFP this cycle- going to not try/not prevent next month until July due to my seasonal affective disorder and not wanting to have a baby during the winter months (2nd is a January baby and the anxiety was so intense I could barely function).

So excited for all of us in the TWW and hoping for lots of ’s again!!

Brittany I don’t wanna get your hopes up but spotting on 7dpo sounds like a good sign! Fingers crossed you’ll get a bfp in a few days!

Nasa can’t wait to see the outcome! Keep us posted

Lalou Hopefully you won’t need the IUI next cycle. Maybe now you’re least expecting it, it will come like your first one! I’m having everything crossed for you and thank you so much for your word of encouragement!

Nasake unfortunately I’m like you. Last cycle though I stopped everything testing wise. I didn’t buy hpts and told my self I won’t be thinking about it unless I have strong symptoms like something very unusual for me not just twinges and stuff. I found my self very chill about it and days passed kinda fast! Of course AF came two days earlier so I missed the two last days of tww which are usually the worst for me I wish there was a certain way for us to stop thinking about it!
Hopefully you’ll find peace in this tww and maybe an amazing surprise is waiting for you at the end of it

K+Nmomma Fingers crossed girl! Really hope you’ll get your bfp this moth before your ttc break

AFM just chilling and waiting for O! Not much here...

@Alexplpl I am trying to stay cautiously optimistic this cycle. I think that i had implantation with my son exactly a week after ovulation but that was almost 7 years ago and i didn't track anything that month we got pregnant with him. Hoping everyone in here gets BFPs this month!!!!

I’ve had a ton of pulling/pinching on the right side today. Going to buy some tests after work tonight. I’m starting to get nervous about testing in the morning as I hate the disappointment of seeing a BFN.

Anyone had implantation symptoms and get BFP?

Brittany Fingers crossed!!

Nasa can’t wait to see the results! Hopefully two lines will pop

Esther to be honest all this years I had ALL symptoms from cycle to cycle and never got pregnant. I’m not reading too much into symptoms any more as I read in the past that our bodies are preparing for pregnancy after ovulation either way. Let’s hope your symptoms are indeed pregnancy related!

Tested this morning. Pretty sure

Trying to decide now if I want to test again before AF is due or just wait and see if she shows up.

Hello everyone,

@nasa and Brittany hoping to see your BFPs as well.

Nasake it is very hard. It is less intense maybe bc I already have a child and I am also full time working. Versus when I was ttc #1 and was a mostly at home. Even most of my classes were online. I got depressed multiple times and if it was not for this forum and my husband idk what would have happened. Feel free to read my very earlier posts. So yes it is very hard. You need a support system.

AFM I had some very strong cramps today and I am very watery. Those are my upcoming AF signs. She will be here in the 2-4 days I am sure. So I won t be testing again. But I am keeping my toes and fingers crossed for everyone. Also I got the financial clear for one iui procedure. I am so excited. I will write all the details in my journal posts but I will give you some in here too. I will probably going in cd2-3 for transvaginal ultrasound and estrogen test. Then will take cd3-7 Letrozole (Femara) 5mg and I will probably go CD 10 for another round of testing. So very excited.
Keep the faith.
