HI everyone!  This is a two week wait post for anyone who is in or soon will be in the TWW. Tell us your symptoms (no matter how crazy they may be!), how many DPO you are, and when/if you'll test. Good luck everyone!

I should be soon. I think I Oed the other day. Still waiting for FF to give me a cross hair. I however, was very bad on Fourth of July and had a few too many adult beverages. So, I think I'm going to spend the next few weeks drinking only water and eating proper foods. I am such an idiot. #-o

Good morning everyone!  Hope you all enjoyed the holiday weekend.

I am 12 DPO.  As far as symptoms, I've had a few things that fall into the "early pregnancy symptoms category", but most I can explain in other ways.  For example, I've been incredibly fatigued the last few days, and have had trouble sleeping (as in trouble staying asleep) for a while now, so those two might be connected.  I looked over my recent meal plans (I'm a Weight Watcher and track a lot) and realize I was a little heavy on carbs, so I'm rebalancing to go a little heavier on protein.  Plus I went back to the gym to try and help my energy levels.

I've had odd headaches lately too.  Most of my headaches are due to either my period about to start, lack of sleep, or dehydration, but these feel different.  They're in the wrong place, wrong time of the month, and not intense enough to be my period headache, so I'm not sure.

Warning, possible TMI in next paragraph.
The other thing I've noticed, and I'm coming to you ladies for help, is an odd discharge the last few days.  There's only a little, but it's thick, milky-white, and odorless.  I don't know if it's a sign, or a sign I'm about to get my period.

FF says to expect my period Tuesday, but it's my first month off the pill, and my periods tended to run long anyway before the pill, so even if I wasn't pregnant, I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't start until later this week.  I probably won't test until the weekend or early next week.

I am 11 days past my 3 day transfer. I get blood drawn for my beta on thursday morning. 

I thought this was going to me the most torturous tww, yet. But i am doing surprisingly well. I think a combination of being out of town for the cycle and returning to craziness at work coupled with being an obsessive soccer fan and fully occupied with the world cup has kept me plenty busy (btw - USA #1!!!    

Symptoms; I am taking PIO shots so am having mild tiredness and naseau from the increased progesterone. The naseau seemed to be a little worse the last few days -- not sure why as i give myself the same dose/same time....  but can't complain. 

Fx for us all!!

I'm 5 dpiui today.  No symptoms.  I vacillate between being absolutely positive this is our cycle to being absolutely sure it didn't work.  So far the TWW hasn't been too bad - holiday weekend helped and now I work a lot this week.  

Beta is next Monday...I'm not sure if I'll test before.  My hubby wants me to so I won't be blindsided at work.  I just don't want to ruin my Sunday (plus I'll only be 11 dpiui on Sunday).  We'll see I guess.  I always say I won't test and then I do.

I'm 11dpo and got a BFN today. My temp has dropped two days in a row, so I think it's safe to say that I'm out for the month. I cried this morning when I told my husband. There should be a rule that if you miscarry, you get pregnant again right away. This is cruel.

Hugs girl. :-S

I'm 12dpo and supposed to test on Thursday.... I'm going to ugly cry if I get AF instead (

@CarrieandRoy - ugh!! What a bummer! I hope your time comes soon!

Good luck ladies! Hoping we see a BFP here soon!!

@CarrieandRay - creepy internet hugs.  Fingers crossed for next cycle!

@dolphin012 - I'm on pins and needles!

@emsmama15 - I've got everything crossed for you!  good luck!

I'm hoping I'll be entering the tww soon.  I have no idea what my body is doing.  My temp was all high right after my period and now it's all low.  I hate my body!

@CarrieandRoy - sorry to hear about the approach of AF . Hoping things are better for you next month. 

@emsmama15 - keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!! btw -- i finally made that oven backed fajita recipe that you shared a while back. Loved it -- yummy, super-easy for weekdays, and most importantly we have leftovers for another night.

@CarrieandRoy - I'm so sorry!  I feel your pain right in my heart.  Though I haven't miscarried, I know the feeling of month after month of BFNs and it just sucks big time.  Hugs to you.  

I'm now 6 dpiui and I'm still so crampy and bloated!  I haven't done a full medicated cycle since March, but I don't remember being this bloated.  I went to get weighed in for my diet program and I was up 2.75 pounds and my jeans were tight today (and they're my starting weight jeans!). GEEZ!!

I'm only 5DPO and so far haven't freaked out about wanting to test. This has been our best cycle as far as trying and timing so far and it's the third month so maybe third times a charm but I don't know... I'm afraid to think that way. Obviously no testing yet but we'll see! AF is due the 17th so I have a ways to go.
