2ww!!

2ww!!

Just have to say how much I hate the 2WW! I am only about 4dpo, but I am cognizant of every twinge, ache, gurgle, and/or lack thereof.

I'm not even sure it's even possible that at this point anything even MEANS anything if implantation doesnt usually happen until 7-10dpo.....can you get symptoms pre-implantation???

yesterday, I was convinced that I am going to get a BFP (intuition?), and today, I'm convinced it's going to be a BFN. UGH!!

Before I got my first BFP I wasnt obsessed with thinking about it becuase I just always figured it would be negative. In fact, I was SO convinced that it would be a BFN, that I didnt test until cd 42, just figuring I was late! (of course, looking back, I did actually have symptoms then)

Now that I have gotten a BFP in the past (and miscarried), my 2wws are TORTURE wanting it to happen again so incredibly badly!!

i feel the same way! When I got my BFP (also miscarried), I didn't even test because i didn't think I was going to get it. I then got the flu and just gave up on the idea, then took a test a few days later... hope this is the month for us!

Re: 2ww!!

It is truly awful... I haven't had a single BFP to speak of, but I convince myself every month. I got violently ill last week and wound up throwing up... along with cramps and fatigue and all that fun stuff, so of course I convinced myself YES! This is it! And then an hour later I thought "No, stupid, it's not- even if you were pregnant, it's way too early for this." My mind flip flops like crazy... of course it doesn't help that the second week of the 2ww is rife with hormones and PMS and symptoms of AF which are cruelly similar to those of being pregnant. I just don't know how to turn it off, ya know? Every month I say I'm not going to track and just let whatever will happen, happen, but I can't help it. I notice things. I've never been so hyper vigilant of what is going on in my own body.

Out of all of this I have drawn one simple conclusion.... God is a man. Chat Icon

Hahahah! That made me laugh. I would have to agree that God is a man. Nobody could think up a process that allows men to get lots of sex and women to spend weeks agonizing and HOPING to feel ill. No fair. I have literally gone to the ladies room over the last few days just to feel my breasts to see if they are at all sore hahaha! (with my BFP they were killing me, but I also used to get sore BB during 2ww generally -- that all completely changed after the miscarriage so I dont know what to think anymore)

My husband walks around the house saying "pregnant yet?.....pregnant yet?" -- he thinks it's funny....it AINT funny! Chat Icon

Best of luck to you too! I need a fast forward button!!

I also hate the 2ww! Not even sure when I ovulate, just use OPK, and hope for the best. Also AF is so painful and miserable for me, I miss my BCP Chat Icon every month I don't get a BFP equals days of misery and pain that only BCP can manage.

Good luck to everyone this month Chat Icon

Good luck! It is TORTURE. I kinda want to test tomorrow - 7dpo--- which I know is crazy and way too early. But I've been having a dull ache in my lower abdomen for last 2 days and I am nuts thinking about it! Probably and completely reading into things .... i'm sure its nothing, or just gas or something, hahahahaha. Chat Icon

If you have alot of tests then why not? lol... probably won't get a positive that early though. Your levels double every two days after implantation, and tests don't usually show positive unless your levels are at least 25. So if you implanted on 5dpo (which could be what the cramping was), your levels might be around 10. You never know though!

BFN this morning--- I'm going to say its still too early and not try to get too down yet (again, I go from its going to be a BFP this month, to nope, no way .....LOL). Its not really cramping, just a dull ache. I am going to try to hold off again until maybe 11dpo or so....better likelihood that it will be accurate.

I am with you ladies...it is torture. This month I'm trying not to think about trying at all, every time the thought comes into my head, I start singing any random song so I don't think about getting pregnant, if I could be pregnant, etc. Well Sunday I was gardening when all of a sudden I felt a bad pinch/cramp, I don't know pain in my lower left abdomen for like 30 seconds then it went away. Afterwards I was like what was that, that was weird, then I realized I was exactly 6dpo, and now since then I'm like could that have been implantation? Could I finally be pregnant?, driving me crazy...can't wait til I can test :-/

Haha you're not weak I just decided this month to stop obsessing so much because it just makes me excited then sad. I'm sick of feeling like I'm on a roller coaster. And while I say that I think maybe I'll test tomorrow it is only 1 day earlier then I planned on testing...haha. This whole TTC thing has shown me just how crazy I am :)

I have the Wondfo's so I think I'm going to test tomorrow morning. If it shows anything, and that's a big IF then I'll confirm with a FRER.

Maybe I should buy those tests. The 3 pack of first response was like 40 bucks at Walgreens!

Good luck tomorrow !!Chat Icon

OMG! I did the same thing. I got the digital ones and then didn't want to use them at all because they are so expensive! Totally get the Wondfo's- I ordered them from Amazon- $20 for 50. I take them two at a time. Chat Icon I also picked up the Wondo ovulation prediction strips, too.

I buy FRER on amazon too and they are less expensive than going to the drugstores. I think I got the 3 test for like $20 or less maybe? But I also have the wondfos as well for the "crazy early testing" that happens too :)
