Anyone else in the TWW period??

Thanks briggsy's girl - so far so good.
As this is all new to me, I sometimes forget that I need to be taking things a bit easier, but DP always tells me off when he catches me doing something I shouldn't be (like lifting something heavy). I am just trying to carry on like normal - despite doing the biggest thing I have ever done in my life! I so want this to happen.
When are you planning on doing your HPT? (Sorry if you have already mentioned, I have been trying to keep track of who is doing what - but being new to this forum I am finding it a bit hard!)
K

i had my iui last saturday and BT isn't sceduled til the 8th, so will probably do a HPT on Saturday next weekend (providing a remember - i was told i had a fairly high chance of developing OHSS, so have been drinking like a fish just in case - and am up a hundred times a night to go to the loo!)

if you're looking for some others going through the same journey - why not join us in the Long Term TTC and Assisted Conception Thread - everyone there is at a different stage of the journey - and we're a pretty supposrtive bunch!

Hi Everyone.
Welcome to the thread Kimberley... it is such a trying time - the TWW - but also quite exciting! I hope that we all get some good news soon.
I decided to get away for the weekend this w/end - try to take my mind off it and also try to pass the time quicker! Look at me though, im on the computer checking in with you girls (hardly NOT thinking about it).
I have my first Luteal injection tonight, I rang FS and they said to take it in the evening before bed... so, thats what I will do.
I am trying so hard not to think about doing a HPT, and dont have any in the house to try and make it more difficult for myself.
Its 12 days to go today until the BT.
Hope you all have a really good weekend!! xx

hehehe - it's hard to ignore the TWW, isn't it Karena? i've tried so much to distract myself - and always it comes back! shouldn't do his just in case, can't do that cos i have to have a needle then....

oh well! hope you have a great weekend away hun!

Kimberley - welcome to the 2ww. I hope you end this journey with a bfp!

bg - a week to go until you can start testing! WooHoo. It probably feels like ages away doesn't it?

Karena - it is so hard to keep you mind off it. It just consumes you, doesn't it? I hope the next 12 days go really fast for you.

I hope everyone else is enjoying their weekend and surviving the dreaded 2ww!

Well I resisted the temptation to test this morning. I know it is too early but I really really wanted to. I just need to resist tomorrow. I hope I can do it, but I'm not sure :rolleyes: So far so good, getting through today and no AF, I hope the witch stays away!

i hope for you so much that you don't get AF again for another 9 months Lynn!

and yes, a week seems sooooooooooooooo far away! especially now that i've put it in DH's hands and told him i won't test til he gives me the green light!!! don't know if that was such a great idea....

You're crazy!!!!! But probably smart too. I think we all need help to stop testing too early.

I would love not to see AF for a very long time. Today is good day...........I am positive :)

glad to hear you're feeling positive Lynn - it's nice to have good days at the moment - this waiting game is way too stressful

i'm trying so hard not to read anything into the way i'm feeling - i basically feel like i need to stay still - every time i move more than little bit, i feel this massive need to go to the loo and it's driving me insane - went outside with DH earlier, and by the time i walked from one end of the garden to the other, i had to nick back inside - sat down to eat lunch - went to grab myself a drink, and again off to the loo! not feeling anymore queasy than i normally do (have IBS, so queasy is common place!) - bbs are a little bit tender and (much to DH's delight), they are very reactive!! he's having a great time getting a response from me every time he walks past! hmmmmm, maybe i am reading into things a little....

you never know - they could be signs :crossfingers: I think it helps us to get through this time by grasping for anything that might be positive. It can only help. I did have cramping and nauseous but it has gone now. I have had cramping ever since I started the fsh injections so it is hard to work out what I am feeling. Today I am not feeling anything. I never got any symptoms with Cooper until about 8 weeks when m/s kicked in and at about 20 weeks my bbs doubled in size over night and hurt every time I moved!

i guess that's why i'm trying not to see too much in what's happening - the FSH injections definitely gave me some cramping - and then i had both antagonist injections and then the trigger/booster shots - so my hormone levels are all over the shop! apparently my bbs are bigger - but DH commented on that days before i even had the trigger - so who knows? i'm already big enough - don't need more!! i seriously feel like i have a UTI half the time, but i'm trying to just chill out - i have a whole week more to wait, so i'm just gonna take it easy and hope that i'm feeling a little off for all the right reasons!

When is AF due for you? It seems like your bt is far away.

Hi there , can i join in , i am now 3DPO is going to be a long TWW.

Bettyboop - welcome to the 2ww journey! It sure is a long wait - it feels longer than 2 weeks. I hope you get a bfp at the end :pray:

welcome to the TWW Betty Boop - it's not fun for any of us - but at least we're here to support each other!

Lynn - i have no idea when AF would be due - i have never had a regular cycle EVER - so no way to know how long my LP would be - but if i based it on the NORM of 14 days, it would be next saturday. i asked the clinic nurse why my TWW was so close to three - her answer was that she wanted to make sure AF was well overdue so as not to put me through the trauma or expense of a BT if it's already all over.... not great, but i understand where she's coming from!

It seems sort of cruel but I can understand. The clinic I am going to are similar (but not as cruel!!) AF is due Tuesday and I am having a bt on Thursday. They said if AF hasn't arrived then go in. Thursday is going to be the longest day, although if AF hasn't arrived by then I think I will be in with a good chance.

i'm really struggling with the whole "wait and see" thing - cos i NEVER have a regular cycle, we don't know what is normal and what is not - so it's just going to do my head in - think that's why i want to risk a HPT before then! now i just have to hope that DH is as impatient as me!

kimberley hi there an welcome. I have my BT on the 4th as well. I wish you all the luck hun. I know how you feel, think its going to work then as the time gets closer you seem to get abit scared and neg. chin up and lets hope, hey.

karena would be good to get away and not think about it. Im the same. TWW is all I think about these days....shame...lol

Lynn oh :pray: the witch stays away for you. STAY AWAY AF YOUR NOT WELCOME HERE!!!!!!

awwwww bg weeeeing lots. Thats a good sign. Oh I hope you get your BFP darl. Im sure you will. :) I dont know how you handle not knowing when you AF is due. That would have made it hard. But now your going to get BFP!!!

Hey Bettyboop and welcome to TWW hell....lol... Yes the TWW is so long. I really hope you and all of us get BFP. Good luck!!!

As for me well, Ive had AF Pains for about hmmmm 3 days now, BB have been sore up until today, but Yesterday and today have been feeling sick to the tum. But apparently the Crinone gel Im taking can cause pg symptoms. I hope its all pg and not gel. Well I wish you all luck. Come on girls we need a BFP soon.

Who is the first to get BT here...im 4th june???

you're not waiting to the fourth to test though, are you missy?

maybe the question needs to be "who's cheating on their test by doing a HPT first?" LOL!
