Two week wait support #6

how is everyone? just passing thru, got to get outin the garden this morning...my BB's are giving me gyp, don't know whether to scratch the itch in my nipples or rub them...anyone else had these symptopms in the TWW?

Hey girls just quickly in and out and will do personals later.

Karan just wanted to say that i have had very itchy nipples for the last 2 days....... i dont want to get my hopes up for anything but is it a symptom of pregnancy???? I havent read it anywhere??

Anyway i will be back later

I'm out for this month. Got a BFN and have to stop taking progesterone. Boo.

:hug: Sorry you got your BFN, Tempus.

tempus, so sorry to hear your BFN. fingers crossed for you next month :pray:

rainbow girl..i had breast tenderness very early on with my first, second, fourth and fifth pregnancies...the first ended in termination at week 6 due to a serious bacterial blood infection, the second was twins, so double dose of hormones, the third i was still breastfeeding the twins at 20 months so i didn't even realise i was pregnant till 9 weeks, and my (then, now ex)-husband bullied me into a termination two weeks later, fourth i knew before i even missed a period, but then again all this happened between the ages of 20 and 30. now, at 43, i had tender itchy nipples before AF was due with the bubs i lost in february, and here i am, had the same symptoms since the official 3DPO, and DF tells me even he can see my BB's are fuller and heavier. so here's hoping it's not just an early AF and i'm not imagining things...

Hi ladies,

Thought I'd pull up a seat in here - am at cd 22, and about 5 dpo ... will be testing sometime in the middle of next week. Have had to stop myself from buying hpt's about 3 times already - part of me says it will be good to get them so I have them when needed, the other half knows full well I'd test waaaay too early! Must not buy them until at least this time next week!!

tempus - sorry to hear about the bfn. gl for next month

karan - what a rollercoaster ride you have been on with your pgs. Here's hoping the bb's are a sign of a lovely bfp for you and df

pbstar - fingers crossed for you! Hopefully the times that you did bd are well and truly enough to get you that bfp!

mollycat, rainbow girl, issy and everyone else - hope the 2ww isn't treating you too badly, good luck to those who are testing soon!

Thought I'd also sprinkle some :pink-babydust::bluedust: around here for us all!

Tempus im so sorry hun, let us know how your going.

Karen my fingers are crossed for you.

Jenushka good work on holding off on the tests. My fingers are crossed for you too.

Well i think i ovulated today, so hopefully we have some luck. I had some slight O pain and very light bleeding this morning when i wiped. I dont know if its Ovulation bleed or from BD'ing. Im convinced something is wrong with the plumbing iykwim. This is just taking too long.

hugs
treelo

Hi Everyone,
I think that I may have o'd today. I have had pains like period pains in my belly for most of the morning.
I just feel like perhaps I should stay away from the boards to try and forget about this TWW. It is like it is the first and last thing on my mind every single day and DH does not understand.
Any way, I will continue to check in. I may not even O till the next couple of days.
Hope everyone is coping with this insanity.
Take care
Kim

Hi Ladies
thought I'd join you all in the TWW....I O'd on day 19...and everthing body wise has been a bit strange since then....sorry if TWI but i hav been constipated and now have thrush!!!! Im not a very happy girl at the moment...anyway hopefully we caught the egg...I pray that we all do..

A HUGE HELLO to Jen...How are ya girl??

Lots of :pink-babydust:for us all...
xoxoox
Emmy-Lou

Emmylou, Cierasmummy, Treelo, Jenushka, Karan, Mollycat, Tempus, Rainbowgirl, Pbstar, mazibelle, Jen, Plc, Tutmae, smilanatu, treelo and anyone else (sorry if I have left anyone out :redface:) Hello to you all.

I hope all you ladies are doing ok whether it be pg, tww'ing, ov or bding (catching the eggie's!!!!)

I wish everyone all the luck in the world this month. Here is some :pink-babydust: and :stickyvibesgirl: for everyone (take what you need and as much of it as possible I say!)

AFM - Obviously still waiting.....
BB's are still sore, they have been worse but still pretty sore. I have NO other symptoms though. Everything can be explained...tired=too much work....hungry=just get piggy sometimes and too much work....twinges in lower abdomen=probablly expanding stomach from being a piggy....constipated=again, being a piggy on crap food....and insomnia=snoring DH. So thats it! AF due on mothers day, hope she misses her lift IYKWIM!. Will see how we go.

BTW - I have to confess to something....I stole some (only a pinch) of the babydust when I was sprinkling it on you guys....sorry, couldnt help myself ;)

:bfp::bfp::bfp: thought some chanting might help too!

:hug: to all,

Issy

Emmy-Lou--Aww, thanks for thinking about me! I'm only CD 6 so haven't been posting here in the :2ww: Sorry to hear about the thrush and the constipation, maybe a sign of a BFP? My fingers are crossed for you!

Issy, Cieras mummy, treelo, jenushka, karan, pbstar--:crossfingers: and :pray: that you all get your BFP's this month! :stickyvibesgirl: :bluedust: for you all (issy there's plenty to go around, you don't have to steal any! :) )

Good morning lovely ladies!!! How was everyone's weekend? I helped my bestfriend get her mom's apartment back in order (she had some major surgery issues a couple of months ago) she's ready to be home again...I also went and seen Ironman with my sweetie (GREAT movie!)...oh and we bd a little *wink*

jen...how are you?

karan...:crossfingers:

tempus...BFN = I am sorry gurlie...here's hoping for next cycle!

treelo...I definitely know what you mean! I have thought for a while something was up with my "plumbing" I have too many issues to post, but I have spoke with doctor about them and he dosen't think anything is wrong...

issy...*wavin* at you!!! I hope you and your sweetie caught the eggie!

AFM...Saturday I had some major pain in my whole uterine area (it was different than the usual "O" pain) and prior to the pain I had some clear cm...actually lots of it...so I'm thinking maybe "O" was Sat even though it was supposed to be Sun and I am actually hoping so since we tried and tried but sweetie couldn't deliver any swimmers yesterday...any way it goes I am now officially in TWW

:goodluck:

:pink-babydust: :bluedust:
:stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy:

Hello everyone... you don't know how happy I am to find you all...... I am going insane:doh:, so I?m sorry if I talk about myself for a little while! I am on the down hill run as my BT is on Friday. 80% of me think I?m preggers and 20% doesn't. I had my last acupuncture yesterday and was told I could get a nice surprise as my pulse was very very strong and had excellent energy in both my liver and kidney. My blood test last week showed my oest @ 507 and prog @ 74 which I?m happy about considering it never got over 58 in January when our little angle left us. I don?t feel like AF is arriving but I am feeling very emotional??

I feel like all my stars are aligned, but just soo scared about the outcome. I really don't know what to think about anymore?. I want to stay positive but it?s really hard.:dunno:

sending you all lots of bubwishes....

Two week wait.... ahhh I know it well. I'm 5 DPO atm so I'll probably be lurking around here seeing that I've got a heap of things to do :)

Hi ladies,

Bad news.....my bb's are not sore anymore, well hardly, not like they were a few days ago when I could feel them throbbing when I walked. I also have quite bad period pain and lower back pain, so I dare say that not only will AF arrive soon, but she will most probably visit EARLY! How nasty :(

Im not due till sunday, but I think she will arrive before that. Im a little dissapointed but at the same time a bit relieved as this wouldnt have been a very good time to fall preggers. In reality it prob better if it happened at the end of the year as I have heaps of things coming up that would make it hard to cope with if I was pg or had a new baby. Logically I know that now is not a good time, and that this is prob a blessing....but my heart still wants it so badly IYKWIM.

Oh well, what can you do but keep your head up and smile ;) It will happen, I just have to be patient.

GL to all you lovely ladies. I sure do hope you there are more BFP's in here this month. Im :pray: for you all.

Issy

Hi Ladies!

I am convinced time is actually ticking slower! Sorry, meant to be encouraging here but does anyone else feel that the closer you get to poas day, the slower the days go?! Thank goodness we are all in this together...

issy - big hugs. Sorry to hear that AF may be on her way... i am sending you lots of "keep the witch away" vibes...

bubwishes - gl for fridays bt. Make sure you let us know what the outcome is.. sending lots of bfp thoughts your way

smilinatu - glad to hear you had a lovely weekend and that you managed to get in some bd'ing! Hopefully you will have caught that eggie!

Emmylou - hello cycle buddy!! Sorry to hear you're not feeling great. I had thrush (sorry if tmi!)this month for the first time in about 10 years the week before we were due to start bd'ing. It was awful! Hope you are getting over it tho. 1 more week-ish until we can test! Hooray!

everyone else - hello! hope the 2ww is treating you ok. Thinking of you and sending lots and lots of :bluedust::pink-babydust:

Loved issy's chant a few posts back, thought I'd keep it going to please the baby gods! :bfp::bfp::bfp:

morning all

issy- sorry to hear that af may be coming, i had some period like pains yesterday so i fear she is on her way to visit me too, and prob early too! not fair hey...you must be the queen of patience, hopefully some of your good atitude will rub off on me...

jenushka- halfway there, only one more week to go- but the second is always the hardest i think. hang in there and hoping you get your BFP

bubwishes- all the best for your test, sounds like you could be getting some great news

hope everyone else is well and lets keep that chant going...

:bfp::bfp::bfp::bfp::bfp::bfp::bfp:

Hi ladies,

Jenushka - thanks for the hugs, much appreciated :)

Pbstar - Sorry to hear that AF might be on her way for you to. I really hope you dont get a visit from her let alone an early one. I suppose its not over till its over!!!!!

Hi to everyone else - Im thinking of you all and :pray: for some very good luck and news to arrive in this thread. :bfp::bfp::bfp: (why not keep the chant going????)

AFM - BB's are sore again today....what's going on????? When I stood up this morning after getting out of bed, they felt like they were pulling off my chest, pain in both. I have also been very naughty (I said I was going to try and relax!) and have been temping the last few days, and it has been at 37 each day. I thought this morning would be lower due to BB's feeling pretty normal yesterday, but it was still at 37. Does anyone else have temps of 37 days before AF is due? I have had temps this high before but it was when I was pg.....not feelin pg though, and I always know when I am.

Would be interested in knowing what other peoples temps are at this time of their cycle. Just for my information.

Thanks beautiful ladies,

Issy

bubwishes...take it easy, you are a strong woman to have got this far!! :crossfingers: for you

issy..chin up, girl, and i love your positivity

jenushka...yup it does get slower, it's the "watched pot" syndrome!!

pbstar..sorry to hear you're in pain...

smilinatu..thanks, i need the luck!!

got big swollen BB's today, i'm literally popping out of my bra!! still tingly/itchy, and i'm tired...but i'm also sleep deprived between DF's snoring and my neighbour/s utter disregard for anyone else. i actually went and bought tests yesterday, picked up DD1 and took her to the chemist and supermarket because she's sick, and by the time i got home with my shopping i realised they'd ended up in DD1's shopping bag!!! must be the universe telling me to wait...lol.


to all you other lovely ladies...here goes...:bfp: :bfp: :bfp: YAAAAY!!!

Jenushka - Im with you in trying to resist buying any HPT's but if i dont have them in the house i cant waste them by testing to early and getting disappointed i have made a promise to myself not to buy them unless AF is late......lets see if i can stick to that LOL And yes time does definately go slower in the TWW its driving me insane

Tempus - sorry bout your BFN big :hug: to you

Cieras Mummy - The TWW is definately on my mind 24/7 it sucks huh!!!! First thing you think of when your eyes open and the last thing you think of before sleeping.........arrrgggghhhhhh its soooooooo annoying LOL

Emmy-Lou - hopefully you cought the eggy :goodluck:

issy02 & Karan - hang in there babes

And everyone else that i missed goodluck. Im really praying that we get some more BFP in here real soon!!!!! :hug:

AFM well i didnt want to say to much as it gets my hopes up and i some how lead myself into believing that im PG but this is the only place that i can let it all out.......... i have been having wierd cramping since the weekend like a kind of pinching sensation in and around the public line and hip bones (if that makes sense) i have been constipated and had sort of throbbing nipples nearly aching, not all the time but on/off. In the last few days i have been having a creamy sort of CM (Sorry if TMI) but today i have had heaps.......it all just seems a little wierd, the feelings that im having......MY Cramping is pretty consistant but really really low which i normally get all over tummy ache when AF is near, shes due to show her ugly face on Monday. Also been feeling a little bloated and had a stuffy nose for the 2 days. Phew glad thats off my chest!!! LOL [/I]

hey issy

i have been temping on and off since jan. did one full cycle but since then just temp around when i think i will o and around when af might be coming just so i can get an idea where i am at. i think everyone is different, my coverline is about 36.7 and after o until the day before af it is about 37 or 37.1, just the day before af it always drops. i know everyone can be different with temps but thats me.

you are right, it's not over till it's over. got my first symptom today- metallic taste in my mouth which seems to be a real sign for me previously. but at the same time still feel like af is coming and have had lower back pain tonight.

so yeah it could go either way for both of us! do you think you will cave and POAS soon? i bought some tests yesterday and am trying so hard not to do them yet, still think it's way too early.

arrrgggh this TWW is terrible, one minute i think af is coming and i'm ok with it and the next i start entertaining the possibility that i just might be....

hope all is well with everyone else, :pray: for some good news in here soon

Just wanted to drop in with a special delivery of :stickyvibesgirl: :bluedust: and lots of :goodluck: for you all!! I'm in the other thread, but just checking in on you all, and praying for you all to get :bfp: :bfp: :bfp: (thought I'd join in and keep this going!) Good luck ladies, I'll see you in the other thread!

Well here i am again... AF is due today but no usuall signs of it arriving.. Had a BFN on saturday so i will wait to see tomorrow if anything happens before i test again.. My cycles have been all over the place so i dont even know if we Baby danced at the right time this month.. Sigh..

I have been less stressed out this time and havent been "looking" for signs of pregnancy, however, this morning i thought that my BB's looked abit "fuller" than normal but that might be just me thinking of things.


Good Luck to you all ladies *fingers crossed*

issy, i always have temps of 37, 37.1 the week before AF comes.... just a fact of life with me.

well, 1 more day till my blood test.... and i am going insane!!!! i did a HPT this morning and it was positive. now i know that could still be the pregnal but in the pass it is normally out of my system within 48 - 72 hours, so i'm quietly confident.... heaven forbid if i get a negitive result... poor HUBBY!!

ladies, my theory is... until i see that red stain... i'm pregger!!

sending you all bubwishes x x x x x

Hi all,

Thanks to those you replied re: temps. My coverline is about 36.6 and I usually sit at 36.8 -9 before AF most cycles. 37 is high for me, only ever seen it when im pg. However, I almost absoultely know that this is not the case this month....just dont have that 'feeling' that I always get when im pg. Anyway, sunday is the day I will find out!

Hello to everyone, just quickly popping in to say hi and send GL and :hug: to all.

Issy

morning all

well i am almost out of here...temp dropped this morning and a :bfn:. so just waiting for AF to show her ugly face now...

issy your temp sounds promising, maybe that feeling you get when you are pregnant isn't there because you are trying to not get your hopes up? anyway i am still :pray: you get your good news on mothers day.

GL to everyone and have some :pink-babydust::bluedust::pink-babydust::bluedust:

i will keep an eye out for some :bfp:

aaaarrrgggghhh!! yesterday was the 28th day of cycle, and so i caved and tested last night...very faint line...again this moning...:bfn: grrr. no AF either, sore lower back this morning and yesterday afternoon..but the tingly sensation in my BB's has gone. dunno what to do, Df is sad, he says he was looking forward to a "mini me"...

Hi girls,

pbstar - sorry to hear that you had a temp drop this morning and bfn and that AF might be on her way :hug: for you hun...

Also sorry to hear that you had a bnf Karan, but sending you heaps and heaps of GL for you next month.

Hello to everyone else...hoping youre all ok and not going too crazy in the tww.

AFM - Obviously still waiting, Im due on Mothers day so unless she doesnt show, i wont test as I cant bear the feeling I get when I waste a test, and I cop heaps from DH when I test too early. I cant even hide it from him, his an accountant and is obsessed with checking the spending records....ahhhh. Oh well, not too long to wait now.

Just as I wrote that last bit, my DH told me that they found that little 3 year olds body down a mine shaft in coober pedy....how bloody awful for his mother. And here I am, completely absorbed in my own life and stressing over someting that is so superficial in comparison to some of things other people have to go through. How can I think that my life is difficult or stressful in anyway when horrible things like this happen. REALITY CHECK FOR ME!!!!! I need to get over myself....im the luckiest women in the world....great DH, absolutely gorgeous DS, Im healthy, happy and so are my family. Sometimes im so busy concentrating on the things I want and dont have that I dont stop to appreciate the wonderful things I do have.

Anyway, sorry for that little out burst everyone.

:hug: to all of you.

Issy

Well, I'm either 9DPO or 3DPO - My chart is all over the place! Either way, I AM in the TWW! I stupidly tested thinking I'll get results - :bfn: - But I guess I'll wait until my alotted testing date - so far I've made it to CD25 and no AF! :woot: My last two cycles were 23 days and 25 days... Here's hoping I am UTD!
Hope your all well

issy--What a sad reality check for us all.... :( It sure helps put things in perspective, doesn't it? It really makes you take a good look at what we already have in our lives--all the things that are taken for granted. You're far from superficial, though--at least you know what you have and are grateful for all your blessings! What a terrible loss for that boy's mother :(

Hi ladies,

Jen - Thanks hun, I agree I dont think anyone of us are superficial for feeling sad about what we are going through sometimes, but at least we can recognise and focus on all the wonderful things we do have.

On another note - AF arrived this morning.....early, well only 1 day but still....
I knew she was coming last night, as I went to bed a 3 in the morning and my bb's had gone from throbbing in the morning to nothing by the time I went to bed,...so I just knew I would wake up with it :rolleyes:

Silver lining (1) - maybe my cycles are getting shorter? Maybe theyll get to 28 days instead of 33? that would be nice!

Silver lining (2) - I have been meaning to lose a bit of weight for the last few months and now I can start it without feeling guilty. Even though Ill still be ttc, i realise that my diet may effect the success of it but I need to do it now or ill blow out to whale size!

Silver lining (3) - I wont be due to have a baby at the same time as an important conference i have coming up next year.

Well..... you have to find something positive dont you???? There's always one there ladies, sometimes you just have to look harder to find them!

:hug: to all,
Issy

Im out this month.. again.

Af arrived this morning. I didnt think we'd caught it this month so im not too stressed about it.. Doesnt make it hurt any less.

Good luck to you all ladies. Will see you next month..

Hi Ladies..
Havent bopped in for a while...time is definately dragging on...

Issy...we all need reality checks from time to time..I totally know what you mean..Sorry about AF arriving, I hope your cycles are getting back to normal.

Abbey...Sorry about Af..GL for next month

Well AFM...I have no signs or symptoms at all...FF shows that I o'd on day 18 and we BD that morning but not again for two days after that due to having thrush which Im happy to report is all gone!!!
So time will tell..:crossfingers: we caught our egg..

To everyone else in here :goodluck2: and lots of :bluedust:

Take Care

Goodmorning ladies!!!! Im super excited today cuz i got a BFP today!!!!! Well i actually got it on my first one on friday night at 9.15pm but thought it was a dodgy test so today im very excited to get another one on another test and on mothers day. I just went and jumped on DH singing a stupid cheerleading type song about it......ohh ive lost my mind hehehe

Anyone else testing today?????

I will come back this afternoon and do personals im too excited at the mo to concentrate hehehe

:cheer::cheer::cheer::stickyvibesgirl::happyforyou ::stickyvibesboy: for you. Enjoy your mothers day - what a special gift.

Hi Ladies - Happy Mother's Day! I'm sure your angel babies and earth babies are giving you all the hugs and love there is...


rainbow girl ... wooooohoooooooooooo!!:happyforyou: BIG congrats! I am so so so happy for you! What more could you ask for than a BFP on mothers day! I guess the itchy nipples from a week or so back were actually a sign!

emmy-lou - cycle buddy! Glad to hear thrush all cleared up. GL for whenever you decided to test... I have :crossfingers: for you

Abby - :hug:sorry to hear about witch-face AF. Take care of yourself, gl for next month

issy - also sorry to hear about AF :hug: but you are so inspiring to be able to find those positives. thank you for your strength

LizJessie - hope the 2ww treats you well, whichever dpo you are (lol!)

karan, pbstar, bubwishes and everyone else stuck in 2ww limbo land- hope you are finding lots of things to distract yourselves and lets get that chant going again after rainbow girl's fabulous news! :bfp::bfp::bfp:

afm - about 11 dpo today, caved and tested this morning even though I have NEVER had a bfp at this stage in my cycle before, and no surprises, it was :bfn: . Have got crazy bbs at the mo - very sore, tingly, achy and leaking ( freaky hey! had this when pg with ds). Had metallic taste in mouth yesterday, and woke up feeling queasy this morning. Have handed over hpt's to dh until wed as have no self control. Wish I could have a peek into my uterus to clear this up once and for all!!

Rainbow girl...HUGE :hooray: CONGRATS..I wish you well ad hope your starting the BFP ball rolling..such great news for today..

Jenushka...my cycle buddy..guess what i actually caved in yesterday too..I woke up extremely emotional and thought what the heck!! was secretly hoping just maybe that id get a BFP..but no of course not a huge definate BFN....AF could show her face at any stage this week..so wait and see and definately not testing till I am extremely late...GL for when you decide to POAS...I really hope you get your BFP.. I hope this week goes really fast....

Happy Mothers Day to all of us...

Take Care
xoxoxox

Also wanted to say - used Confirm hpt this morning (bought 2 pack from Woolies) when I got my bfn. I'd thought that I'd read the instructions properly but had the fright of my life when 2 lines came up straight away .... except with this brand a horizontal line comes up in the results window when the liquid reaches that part ... then fades ... then if you are pregnant a vertical line should appear there a few minutes later.So confusing!

In fairness did go back to instructions afterwards and see this written there, but don't think I'll go back to that brand again (bit too hectic). Think I'll go back to discover one step - they are much gentler on my poor overwrought 2ww brain!

jenushka--Sorry to hear about your BFN, but at only 11 dpo, it could just still be too early! Your signs sound very promising! I can understand your confusion over the hpt's--it's almost like they made it backwards! That had to have been really frustrating to realize.... :hug: BUT it's not over yet, so don't give up hope! I hope that it didn't spoil your Mother's day, did you get to do anything exciting to take your mind off things?


Emmy-Lou--Sorry for your BFN, as well--but it's still early for you, too, so :crossfingers: you'll still get your BFP! (AF, you better back of bi#*h!)


rainbow girl-- :hello: I don't think we've met, but so very happy for you on your BFP! Congrats!


issy & Abbey--Hope AF's being gentle on you! :goodluck2: for next month! See you both in the other thread!

Hope you all don't mind that I'm here checking up you! I'm in the other TWW--the one before O! Still, I like to try to keep track of how things are going for everyone--plus I wanted to wish you all a very Happy Mother's Day! :bluedust: Let's see some :bfp: girls!!!!

hello girls, sorry i'm not up to doing much in the way of personals...i'm sitting here with a lump in my throat, trying not to cry...i'm so disappointed, three tests and three :bfn: 's, and still no AF either...every time i go thru this it gets harder, thinking i'm another cycle closer to menopause, and will i ever have the chance to have a baby again? last night i had a few drinks last night after i finished work at 8pm, and found myself in tears thinking about all the wasted years i spent doing the right thing for my ex when i should have been doing what was right for ME. and here i am, 43, and trying at the wrong end of my fertile years...

but hey, rainbowgirl, wonderful to hear you got your :bfp: congratulations and wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy and a bouncing bub :)
