Just wondering if anyone is testing around the same time as me? I'm in the beginning of the 2WW and I'm already going nuts

[wifeNmommy84]

im 2 days late and tested today BFN but i am testing the 1st!!!

[chrissy323]

Me, Me! I'm testing the 4th. Really want to hold out til the 5th or 6th, but pretty sure that's not gonna happen LOL

[babyjen]

Ha ha. I'm a POAS addict for sure. I'm about 2 dpo right now, I think I'll start testing on the 4th which will be 10 dpo and that's when I got my previous BFP.

Baby dust to you both, I hope this is our cycle!!!

[chrissy323]

Lots of baby dust to you too!!!! I'm TTC #1 and I get really depressed with Bfn's (as we all do), so I promised myself I will hold out. I'll kup. Good luck to BFP's

I'll be testing around the 6th... we're ttc#2. The 6th can't get here soon enough for sure! I'm 4DPO so only 10 more days!

Just checking to see how everyone is doing...the wait is killing me and I have been so irritable and can't sleep b/c all I can think about is POAS! lol

So, I'm 6dpo ...that means 8 more days to wait until I POAS. I don't think I can wait that long. I've seen people getting positives at 9dpo but knowing my luck it will be too soon to detect hcg. With DS I didn't get a positive until after I had 3 days of what I thought was period bleeding. I had taken several ic hpts several days prior to the start of bleeding b/c I was 2 days late starting what I thought was my period then it stopped and I just didn't feel right and took another test and got that positive result...anyways...how's that for a little sunday afternoon ramble lol

Time for a nap :-D

[babyjen]

I'm having trouble getting to sleep too! I'm so anxious to start testing. I'm about 5dpo right now and anytime I feel a little off, I think hmmm...maybe this could be it. I wish I could remember when my BBs got sore with my previous BFP. That's not a normal PMS symptom for me, so everyday I'm poking at my BBs hoping that they hurt LOL.

I know, right? After poking them for a bit I start to question if I found a sore spot. We'll have black and blue BBs from poking too much Hehe.

How long have you girls been TTC?

[lromkee]

I'll be testing on the 9th. That will put me when I am supposed to get AF. Hopefully I'll get a BFP instead.

[kristile1]

hey!!! I am at the beginning of th 2WW too! ovulated around the 23rd-28th. I want to take a test now lol. Blood test neg on the 29th... Not that I wanted one I had an ovarian cyst rupture so they did blood work and an US. The US tech said it looked as if my cervix was thick (haha) and that I looked as though I should be menstrating but I am not. Also my BBT has been up since when I started OV and it is still up!!!!!!!!! I am going to try to wait until the 7th... AWWWWWWWWW waiting is horrible. I want to know now. How is everyone else holding up?

[babyjen]

Well I know not to read into any symptoms this early, but I can at least document how I'm feeling right...just in case?

Ovulation day: Bad cramping and lots of wet CM...very hard to BD, was sooooo uncomfortable.
1DPO: Nothing, pretty dry
2-4DPO: Gassy (I'm not normally gassy), still dry
5DPO: Felt nauseous for a second. Irritable and gassy..fun! Some cramps a few time today, more like a pinching near the belly button. Too early for implantation though.
6DPO: Woke up early this morning burning up, had to kick off all the covers. Felt nauseous for slit seconds a couple times. Started eating a bowl of cereal and could only make it halfway through, started gagging big time. Feeling really hot right now too...I'm usually always cold. It's 65 degrees here, I need at least 75 to be comfy.

One more thing that's a little odd: My DH and I bake 5 pounds of chicken every week and reheat for meals. I bake it with lemon juice, Italian herbs and fresh garlic. Last time I was PG I had a HUGE aversion to that chicken. I gagged if I smelled it. I'm starting to get turned off by it now. I haven't tried smelling it yet to see how I react but I see it in the fridge and just don't want to eat it.

My mind just might be playing tricks on me since I want it so bad, but wishful thinking either way.

Anyone else feeling anything different?

I've been nt/np since May 08 and have been tracking/trying since Nov. 08. It feels like forever!!!!!!!!

Besides the sore boobs that I am constantly making worse hahaha, I have been soo tired and feeling wierd cramps. Also. today I walked into the cafeteria at work and the ketchup smell was awful. I love ketchup and no one else could smell it. It's probably just my imagination messing with me. Here's to all the imaginary symptoms being real. yay for BFP's. I think that I may test now on Saturday~12 DPO. Do you girls think that is still too early?

Plenty of people get BFP at 10dpo so no I don't think 12dpo is too early to start testing. Just don't lose hope if it's a BFN, just wait and then test again because it could very well be a false negative. It takes 2-3 days for the HCG to increase in your system. I have about 50 HPTs so I don't mind testing a bunch It's not over till AF arrives.

[maypril1982]

This is my first cycle "actively" trying with OPKs and temping. But we haven't been preventing since January.

No weird feelings here. I've had some mild cramping/full feeling in my lower abdomen off and on since about 5dpo and a few waves of "I think I'm going to be sick" but that could be related to something else. I have been getting up every night around 3:30 to pee... I usually never get up in the night to potty. I've been really tired but that can be attributed to the trouble sleeping and then getting up to pee. I don't remember any early symptoms when I was pregnant with my first...of course he was a surprise so I wasn't really paying attention. After I got that BFP with himi was when I really noticed any symptoms - peeing a lot, emotional, upset stomach and super exhausted.

I don't know when I'm going to start testing. I have 50 IC HPTs and 2 FRER so I'm prepared to say the least hahaha. I'll be 12dpo on Saturday so I'm going to try to test then.

[Cmommy]

I am 5DPO today. I will test 4/6 @ 10DPO and every other day after until BFP or AF - which ever comes first

[kristile1]

Well I am about 8dpo. I am SOOO bloated. I had a ovarian cyst rupture on 3/28. So... I dont know if it is from the ruptured cyst or not. I have an Appt today so well see. Yesterday I was extremely exhausted. Barely could stay awake all day. Weird for someone who can never seem to rest. Sciatic nerve pain but again dont know if it is from the rupture. Weepy, but not overly weepy. Gassy... So bad. TMI sorry. No spotting so if I am I may have not had implantation yet. Altough with my first pregnancy I never got the "Implantation bleeding". Took a test yesterday I know I should have waited. It was BFN. AF should start around the 10th. I think I am going to TRY to wait to test until then. TRY... I am so test happy that my husband thinks we should look into buying stock in them... HAHA good luck everyone the 2WW feels like an eternity.

[maypril1982]

Sorry to hear about a cyst rupturing. I have never experienced that but it definitely doesn't sound pleasant.

I was pretty bloated feeling myself yesterday..my hands were so swollen I could barely get my wedding ring on and it is usually pretty loose.

I tested this morning with an internet cheapie...it was a bfn and I'm 9dpo. I told myself I wouldn't test until Saturday...but I guess I'm a POAS addict!

Good luck at your appointment... I was thinking, if you're pregnant, can the cyst rupture be problematic?? I hope all goes well.
