I prefer the 2WW. AF to O is more stressful for me. After I O, its done and over with. I just gotta wait and see if we did it.

I agree - as crazy as it probably sounds - TWW is easier for me (well as long as things don't look depressing to me on my charts. LOL)

For me, it used to be the wait to O since it took so long and my LP was really short. Now the 2ww is worse.

I say I prefer the waiting to O period. The 2ww wait drives me nuts cause it's totally out of my control. At least when I'm waiting to O, I can make sure I BD and do everything I can think of to increase my chances. I just can't stand waiting around for 2 weeks to see if it actually worked!

I prefer the 2ww, which is shorter than waiting to O. The 2ww doesn't bother me much, until my temp starts taking a nosedive.

I think I prefer the 2WW. I feel like there is a chance knowing that I have Od.

I much prefer the 2WW. During the AF to O time I'm so worried the OPKs are going to work and I'm going to miss O and we wouldn't have BD around that time. I have a short LP, so the 2WW for me is really like a 1.5WW. Plus, FF doesn't give CH until 3dpo, so it's kinda like a 1WW for me cuz I test at 10dpo.

to Cris. I feel like I'm in control during the first two weeks, which makes me feel hopeful and productive.

Now that I've started BCPs, it's a little odd not waiting to O anymore. I dont know what I'm going to do with all this extra time on my hands!

Same here. I get too stressed with wondering if I am or not.

I much prefer the 2WW...I feel hopeful and excited during the 2WW. Waiting to O is just that, so much waiting and I O really late, so it can be frustrating.
