TWW for 3/9

Teenie16

Welcome to this week's edition for the TWW!!!  This is for anyone who is entering the TWW this week or is in their TWW.

Where are you in the TWW?  When will you test?  Any phantom symptoms?  

QOTW: Who have people told you that you look like? Do you have a celebrity twin?

Teenie16

I'm on CD23, didn't do any tests etc. see if/when I ovulated so I won't test unless AF is late. 

No symptoms that differ from PMS.

QOTW: I've gotten on 2 separate occasions Minnie Driver and Rene Zellweger. Which is laughable since they don't look anything alike and if you look at my profile pic I look nothing like either of them.

I'm supposed to go in for a beta on Thursday, if AF hasn't shown up, I might take a test tomorrow when I'll be 13dpiui.

My celebrity twins are Jennifer Jason Leigh and Juliette Lewis.

Hi!!
I just started my TWW today. Supposed to start using progesterone on the 12th and test on the 26th.
I've had some cramping. Don't know if it's normal or maybe because RE had to adjust the tube a few times before he could get it where he wanted it to be.

I've been told I look like my dad. Celebrity twin? Well, I've been told I look like Halle Berry, Janet Jackson and Gabrielle Union. This in different stages of my life and I've seen somewhat of a resemblance.

Good luck everyone!

I'm 10-11dpiui and 10dpo. I'm probably going to test tomorrow. RE said to test Wednesday. I'm a cheater.

Fun question! I've heard Bridget Fonda and Sybil Shepard.

I guess I'm technically in the tww but I'm calling this cycle a wash.
First off I never got a positive OPK so I don't think I even O'd and even if I did my husband was only able to finish once this month and that was cd6. The few other times we started having sex he couldn't keep his erection so now he just doesn't want to try. I will give him the next two weeks to try and relax so maybe next month we can maybe have successful sex.

QOTW: my brother thinks I look like Julia Roberts. I say eh a little maybe.

My husband thinks I look like Sophia Vergara but I think he says that because he has a crush on her. Her smile is way bigger than mine.

I'm just plain ole me

emsmama15

Good luck everyone!!!!

Teenie16

@hooligans4 "Plain ole you" isn't a bad thing... 

@Fly106 I've been told my dad too. He used to say if he was a girl I am what he would look like. HAHA I guess it's natures paternity test.

@kinderschlitz Please let us know how it goes tomorrow

Austrogermokee fingers crossed for you tomorrow!

Good luck to everyone!

Austrogermokee

BFN. Sigh. I'll keep taking my progesterone and go in for my test Thursday, but I've given up on this cycle.

I'm on CD22, had some mild cramping in the wee hours of the morning. Had a little random breast pain yesterday but this could all just be PMS. My temp dipped slightly yesterday and went back up today which I actually found encouraging because that happened when I had success. But who knows. If I O'd when I think I did I am 7dpo.

*****child mentioned*****

I took my daughter to our little neighborhood park yesterday and I was able to forget about everything else for awhile. We were walking with the stroller and suddenly there was a cardinal at the very top of the tree in front of us. I keep seeing this post on facebook about cardinals and there's been a pair that I've spotted in our back and front yards lately. Anyway, this little guy was sitting in the top of the tree just singing his little heart out. So beautiful. I know it's crazy but at that moment I felt like it was my baby I just lost telling me everything was going to be ok. And it made me feel so good. So I'm trying to hold on to that feeling.

Hey all, 

So I'm still in the TWW although pretty sure that AF is about to come tomorrow. Temp dropped yesterday, back up slightly today, but doubt it's a good sign. Had cramps this morning. Ah well. I really felt like we had it this time.  What do I have to do???

 Ah well. Scheduled my HSG for Monday morning, which means taking another half day off work, but I guess that's alright.

Everyone else keep us updated.  Got everything crossed for you all.

Look like anyone? Hmm, I like to believe any actress with dark hair, but I really don't. And no one has ever told me I look like anyone except for my brother. Not a compliment when you are 12.

@Dwmmwd - it's not over til she shows.  You're still above your coverline.  Keep your chin up!  Good luck.

Guennie

@Dwmmwd I just logged in on my iPad so I could view your chart. I agree you may not be out yet. You didn't go below coverline and it came back up, both good signs. As for the cramping, very common even with a bfp. Hang in there!

gfgrump

thanks ladies. I appreciate the support. Still holding out a tiny bit of hope, but trying to prepare myself for the let down that I'm pretty sure is coming tonight or tomorrow.

Ok so now I have had heavy spotting yesterday and today. Cd 17 and 18. What the fluck is going on with me. May can't come soon enough for my yearly checkup.
I'm so afraid I'm going through early menopause or something. My cycles are all over the place.

emsmama15

I've heard of some people spotting around ovulation.  Could it be that?  I don't even know what's going on in my own body, so I probably shouldn't be guessing about yours!  I have to say, I'm happy to know I'm not the only one who worries about early menopause...

hooligans4

@emsmama15 my OPK are very negative so I don't think that's it. I'm thinking it's early period. But holy crap body give me a break. Last mint was a 36 day cycle now it's 17. Crazy 8-}

emsmama15

Huh.  Seriously, these "mature" bodies are designed to drive us crazy...  Can you get in earlier for your yearly exam?

suziq1978

@Dwmmwd - I see your temp went back up this morning!  Still have my fingers crossed for you!

gfgrump

Thanks @suziq1978.  I'm somewhat encouraged as no AF yet, but also BFN. Also my temps the past few days are kind of unreliable bc I haven't been sleeping well so it's usually only been like 1.5 or 2 hours of sleep before I took it.  I'm keeping the tampons in my pocket, but still have a tiny bit of hope.  Only a little bit of cramping yesterday morning and then pinching last night.  

Sorry for what you're going through @hooligans4.  

Anyone else test?

kindershlitz

@Dwmmwd hopefully having tampons jinxes you.
@hooligans4 those are some wild cycles. Sorry

I didn't bother testing today. BFN yesterday and I'm feeling AF on her way.

hooligans4

@emsmama15 I could go for my wacky cycles but they wouldn't do my yearly check stuff. I would rather wait the month and do it all together. I will have one more cycle before then so I can see what it will do. I have not had two normal cycles back to back in a long time.

gfgrump

well mystery is solved. Spotting just started. As did cramps. And for that matter PMS/bad mood. Sigh. Man I got to 15 dpo. I really thought we had it. It is so strange that I had such a long luteal phase.  I just want to curl up in a ball.

kindershlitz

I'm sorry @Dwmmwd
I just took another test. 13dpo- still bfn. I've been cramping too. Just start already AF

hooligans4

Boo for us all. This month sucks!!!!!

emsmama15

I'm sorry to all of you.  

Guennie

I'm so sorry guys. Big fat boo.

Teenie16

I'm so sorry ladies! I'm sure to be right behind you.

suziq1978

Aww ladies, I'm so sorry.  I was really hoping for both of you this month.

gfgrump

Yeah, this month blows. Full on AF today.  In a crap ass mood and really annoyed with my 8th graders.  Do not want to hear their lip. Tired of it all. On top of that I have to go work at their trivia night/talent show fundraiser until around 10pm tonight.  Ahhhhhhhhhh. Sorry for the rant.  

Hope others have a better friday than me.
