I am!! AF is due the 17th for me. I had 3 cycles off bcp's that were exactly 28 days, then last month the witch was mean and first cycle trying she was a week late, so I had a 35 day cycle....so I think I'm in the 2ww as long as i go back to normal this month...but I don't chart or temp or anything.

Symptoms I'm obsessing over:
since monday (when i thought I o-ed) I have had some cramping like af cramps but its way too early for that...and some pain in my left side.

GL everyone! Any symptoms to obsess over anyone?

I hope the 2WW will go quickly for you ladies! I think that is the hardest wait of all! Hang in there!

Yep, I just joined the 2WW. I O'd yesterday. And our timing was really good this month. So, fingers crossed - the obsessing begins shortly.

Well, here I am! I am just waiting for AF. I will not analyze symptoms during this 2ww and just see if AF shows herself. Since I started all of my supplements, I have had a decrease in my usual pre-AF symptoms, which is good. That is what the book, "The Infertility Cure" says should happen. Let's hope I see even less symptoms this cycle!

I am apparently. And a month before we had originally planned. My unexpected O after our first time not using backup, and here I am.

I'm in that dreaded 2ww. :) I O'd a little later than expected based on my O pains from my left side (I thought it would be around 11/1 but I think it was 11/6 or 11/7) so we'll see what happens! Since coming off bc in August, my first two cycles were very regular at 29 days, then the next was 32 days and I don't know about this one since I O'd about five days later than I predicted I would. So I feel a little unsure but I'll just wait until maybe 11/22 to test, if AF doesn't show up.....

I am climbing the walls in the 2ww!!!!!! This is the first cycle in a while that I know I o'd and the first ever that I KNOW we got the timing right so I am turning inside out with anticipation!!!!! I plan on testing on the 17th but MAN!!!! every morning I have to fight the urge to try one little HPT.

11-11-2007, 06:00 PM

Sounds like a lot of us are testing on the 17th! We should have a poas party! :ROFL:

I feel like I'm O'ing around now, lots of EWCM, sorry TMI, and sore tummy, so another day or so and I'll be in the 2WW!

I believe I am starting the two week wait today. Af would show by the 24th or 25th so we shall see

Good luck. Losts of baby dust! Hope the 2ww goes quickly for you ladies.

11-12-2007, 12:21 PM

I am now in the 2ww. I hope it goes fast! I have a brief trip in the middle which should help keep my mind off things. This cycle I am going to try my best not to read into any symptoms I may get. Last cycle I was totally convinced I was preggers and felt really foolish when AF came since I had gotten DH excited. After reading other people's posts of the first cycle after m/c, I can see that is really common to feel an urgent need to get pregnant, and then to feel like you are! This cycle I feel much more balanced and cycle seems back to normal. Good luck everyone!!!:grouphug:

Melissa1223

11-12-2007, 03:35 PM

Phantom Symptoms are the WORST!! I always feel so silly after making a fuss over my symptoms, or even just getting excited to myself. Then AF comes and I feel let down PLUS 'foolish' like you said. Now I am trying to be more reserved, to notice and notate the things I feel but not to let them get me all a flutter.

GL to everyone!! I hope we all get our BFPs soon!!!!

Add me to the two week wait.I am 3dpo today.Yeah!!!!!!!

Mrs.CinCanada

11-13-2007, 04:25 PM

I had some weird cramping yesterday (7DPO), it wasn't a general crampiness that I would feel around AF. It was more like someone was jabbing me in the abdomen, and it was only on my lower right side. I even remarked to DH last night that I was having some strange cramps yesterday.

And I had some spotting today (8 dpo)when I went to the bathroom around noon, and only when I wiped... sorry if that's TMI.

I'm hoping these are good signs! I'm trying not to read too much into them.

RRDT

11-13-2007, 04:40 PM

They sound like implantation! I hope you get that BFP! (as well as others here too)
Best wishes

The girls at work are accusing me of having cravings!! I wouldn't call it a CRAVING I just would really like some alvacodo, mmm and romaine lettuce ... OOOOH! and sweet onions and tomatos!!!!! I think I will have a raw veggie dinner tonight!!

RRDT

11-14-2007, 08:38 AM

I may be joining the 2ww here in the next day or so! I have the EWCM! I also know my cervix is opening! Woo-hoo! I can't wait to join in here with you lovely ladies!

Mrs.CinCanada

11-15-2007, 06:50 AM

So, I couldn't stand it an POAS this morning. Just on an internet cheapie, because I can't bring myself to use an expensive test just yet.

It was of course BFN, but I freaked DH out last night when he was unloading the groceries and found a FRER in the grocery bags. :lol:

JackDogg

11-15-2007, 07:22 AM

Well, I'm going to tentatively put myself here, cause I'm pretty sure I'm 1 DPO. I never got a completely + OPK but it was almost there, and I had the O pains, and now my usual 97.7ish beginning of my LP temp, so I'm gonna go with that for now, unless my body tells me otherwise. If you look at my chart it doesn't look like much of a temp shift, since my Pre-O temps are so wacko (If anyone has any insight to that I wouldn't mind hearing!), but if you look at my last chart you'll see the same thing.

What's nice is that DH and I are going away for our anniversary, then we've got Thanksgiving and Black Friday, so there' lots of stuff to keep my mind off of the 2WW!

RRDT

11-15-2007, 07:55 AM

Very cool to keep busy in the 2ww!
I hope you get that BFP!
Best wishes

two week wait for me now. I'm 5dpo (?) and had already noted some light brown spotting on TP. Odd for me! But I would think it would be way too early for that to happen if due to PG. Oh well...just another loop that my body is throwing me for! I'm just happy that DH and I were able to do the bedroom dance this cycle. My grandfather is on his last days and I thought by now I'd be seeing him or be at his funeral. :( And no, even if we are PG I would never name my child after my grandfather. He isn't exactly a nice man to most. ;)
Happy 2ww everyone! :)

I just had my 2nd IUI this morning so I'm just starting the looooong dreaded 2WW =/

RRDT

11-18-2007, 07:23 AM

I hope the time passes quickly!
I am Finally in the 2ww~YAY! I hope it goes quickly for me too! LOL
I have lots of baking to do! I will be keeping busy! It is the week After Thanksgiving, that will be long. Maybe I will start shopping, ugh!
ETA: I thought I had O'd 1 day before, but nope....I had slight cramping, Very Mild yesterday. I am almost 100% sure I am 1DPO today. I will be checking my cervix to make sure it has closed. Yesterday am it had not yet. Another reason, to think yesterday was it.
I learned my CM slows way down @ actual O time, and does stay the EWCM, just not as much as the days before O. I have been reading that is normal.

11-18-2007, 10:22 AM

I'm there too! I hope this is a pain free - patience full 2ww! So far, so good. I'm not all obcessive like I was last cycle. Also, I don't seem to be getting all those awful phantom syptoms; maybe because I don't think it happened due to not so great timing. My parents will be in town all week, so that should keep me nice and busy.

Anyone know what it means to get EWCM twice in a cycle?? I had lots around CD13-14, then it went creamy, then I had a ton yesterday very briefly. Wierd.

Mama's testing on the 17th how are things going. I think I am O'ing today.

RRDT

11-21-2007, 06:20 AM

Now is when the time will pass faster. I have lots of cooking/baking to do. Family coming in town today. I also don't have any tests. Muah~ha ha ha! You'd think I planned it, LMAO!
I still have the majority of the 2ww left! Arg!
But, My DH's B-day is this weekend, on top of everything else. I am just in hopes of days going by spent with family, then realizing how close I will be to my cycles end!
Fingers crossed!

Just entered my two week wait. So I have a long way to go. I have a 13 day LP so I am really going to try and make it to 13 dpo. If my temp is still high I will test then. Who knows if I will actually make it that long though. Luckily I have a really busy couple of days before.

katie624

11-21-2007, 12:35 PM

Hi ladies! I'm in the 2ww as well...6 DPO here, but not feeling any symptoms at all, so I'm not too optimistic about this month....

connorsmum

11-21-2007, 12:56 PM

I'm in the 2WW too, also at 6DPO. I am not hopefully as we are sort of avoiding, using withdrawal. However, we seems to be a fertile couple, getting pregnant the first month with the 2 pregnancies we actively ttc. I am having some symptoms, like being gassy, which I had with my last 2 pregnancies, almost as soon as conception occured (nice!). Today I have a killer backache which IS unusual for me, but I do think I am possibly imaging these symptoms or just making myself believe they could be signs. Still, only 8 days until I know for sure, lol! I actually wish it was a holiday period in the UK now, it would keep me busy and my mind off of things.

RRDT

11-22-2007, 07:42 AM

I have a 1ww now!
YAY~
Seems to be going by quickly! My son is really sick now too! My poor baby! I feel so badly for him!

mblackwe

11-22-2007, 08:50 AM

Finally got my CH! woot woot! Now I can officially say I'm in the 2ww. AND I got a High from FF under our intercourse timing. First time. Usually we're at good. So I'm hoping!

putney1477

11-22-2007, 09:31 AM

I'm in the 2WW too. ALthough I don't like to post my symptoms...becasue they usually end in BFNs

But today I am 9DPO....broke down and tested, because with my m/c, I got a faint + at 9DPO. Today was a BFN, I just hope that its too early.

The past few days I've been nauseaus, worse at night, last night I had heart burn, and for the past 2 nights, I've been awake and unable to fall asleep since 2am....also I have a "full" feeling in my abdomen, I had that before with my m/c as well, and some twinges and cramps here and there. I hope this is it for me....I feel like I'm going out of my mind.

Good Luck Ladies

Oh Heather I hope it is too!!! Test again in a couple days! I know its way too early for symptoms, but I swear ever since my O day I've had dull cramps! It's so wierd! I'm sure its just stomache issues! I hope it goes away in time for me to tell if I am having actual 2ww symptoms.

Is it normal to have the cramping after you O? I have been having some slight cramps and twinges on both sides...weird...I dont recall normally having that, but then again, when you are in a 2WW you tend to notice EVERYTHING! LOL! :lol:

RRDT

11-25-2007, 09:28 AM

mblackwe

11-25-2007, 05:58 PM

Which Red Lobster. The one on Pleasantburg. If so then I pass it often! haha. It is a small world. There is someone else on the TTC boards who is from Easley I think. Maybe we'll all end up preggers and can go to the Babies R Us together haha

Almost out of the 2WW thank goodness! This is torture. Currently 11DPO, 3 more days to go!

Kendergirl

11-26-2007, 12:39 PM

I'm almost out of the wait also - woohoo! I'm 12 - 13 DPO (not 100% sure). AF should be showing up in the next day or two. If not, I've got some peeing to do!

SparkleMomma

11-26-2007, 01:21 PM

:wavehello:

Don't want to jinx myself, but man, I can't NOT post, KWIM?

My name is Diane. We aren't really trying, but not not trying. My cycles are screwey, ever since I lost BeBe in March. I have had to have 2 surgeries for that & the last one showed portions of my falloipan tube in the path report. Anyhow, I had an US on Nov 12th because my hemoglobin is very low & I was having a BAD AF. They thought my tubes looked ok. So here I am. I am hoping to test Dec 5th, although AF shouldn't show up on Dec 8th. Like I said though, my cycles are all over the place, so it is hard to tell.

I am going for another US on Nov 29th, and although it will be much to early to see anything, I am crossing my fingers that all still looks good!

I hate this wait!!!

I am glad that I am not alone!

Oh yeah, my Dd would be about the 17th of August. My BDay is the 4th, so that is cool! I would also have this one early, as I am very high risk, with both my boys being early & having uterine deformities. Being HR has it's advantages though!!

Can't wait to meet you all!

Hey ladies! I'm unexpectedly in the 2WW, I was charting for fun since I was pretty sure I didn't O on my own ( I had to go on Clomid for DD) and then WaaLah last weekend on CD24 my temps shot up and have been staying above 98 F. I'm going nutty since I didn't think I would ever be in the 2WW without fertility drugs =)!
