Trying to Get Pregnant

2WW

Re: 2WW

  • Cycle: 3

    DPO: 10 (according to FF but I think it's wrong... I think I'm either 12 or 14 but can't get really accurate because of poor sleep)

    Testing Plans:  Tested this morning and got BFN.  Will test every day until AF or +

    Feeling about this cycle:  Was feeling okay but today I definitely feel a bit PMS-y.  We'll see.

    Phantom Symptoms:  Had flu-like symptoms all weekend which I was trying to convince myself were KU symptoms, but I think it was just a mild flu.

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? We have names picked but I don't know that they will be our final names.

    Edited to add that my period just started... back to waiting to O. :(

    Cycle: #4

    DPO:  9dpo

    Testing Plans: 11dpo if AF doesn't show tomorrow. 

    Feeling about this cycle:  Could go either way. We had pretty good timing, most likely O-2 and O, but it could have been O-1 and O+1 too (ran out of OPKs and wasn't temping). As each day goes on, I get hopeful, but know realistically AF could show up at any point in the next day or so. Good timing doesn't guarantee a BFP.

    Phantom Symptoms:  Itchy and super sore boobs, weird cramping feelings 7 and 8 dpo.

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? Oh gosh yes. I have an ever growing list!

  • Cycle: TTCAL #3, #9 overall

    DPO: 7

    Testing Plans: I'll probably start testing Thurs or Fri...

    Feeling about this cycle: Positive and optimistic

    Phantom Symptoms: Cramping off and on all day yesterday, and with that temp spike this morning, I'm pretty optimistic. 

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out?  Boy, for sure.  Girl, still floating some around.

  • Hello Ladies - I've been lurking for a while now and figured that this would be a good way to break the ice since I'm also in the 2WW period.  Thanks also to everyone for all of your good advice and information - I know when I need an answer I can come    here:-)  So here goes....

    Cycle:  4 (1 officially with temping and 2 with charting)

    DPO:  4

    Testing Plans:  I'm not the most patient person, but it says to wait until 18 dpo since FF doesn't have enough info yet...we shall see.

    Feeling about this cycle:  Good, I think we're closer than we've been.  We had great timing according to FF, but I still haven't gotten a + on the opk (not even sure if I will either) but my temps confirmed O.

    Phantom Symptoms:  Little bit of cramps, nausea and very, very tired.

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? We'll name a boy after my husband but we're all over the place on girls names, too many cute names out there.

    Anniversary Me: 34 DH:39 TTC Since June 2011. April 2012: Me: Diagnosed with PCOS and hypothyriodism DH: MFI, low count and motility. Clomid for 6 months while we saved for IVF - all BFN. Took month of December off to rest and get ready for IVF. IVF #1 with ICSI: Started Stimming 1/09/13, ER 1/20/13. 36 eggs retreived, 20 mature 12 fertilized with ICSI, zero with IVF. Five day transfer cancelled because of severe OHSS - hospitalized for three days. 7 Frozen Embies. FET #1: Started estrace 2/5/13 estimated transfer week of 2/18/13.

    Cycle: 5

    DPO: 7 I think, will find out after I post and see my siggy =)

    Testing Plans: I love to POAS but I am going to force myself to wait untl AF is 2 days late; I was heartbroken last cycle as I was a day late and tested and got a BFN, and then AF arrived 4 hours later just to slap me in the face!

    Feeling about this cycle: Optimistic, I have a new outlook on the new year, but haven't had many symptoms yet...

    Phantom Symptoms: Not much, one minute I think I have sore boobs, am gassy, have sore back, cramps...and the next minute I think it's all in my head!

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? Yes! DH wanted c's for boys and b's for girls as our names start with b&c, and there aren't awhole lot I like when you narrow it down that far so I still have some leftovers from when DS was born!

    Cycle: 3 officially

    DPO: 8

    Testing Plans: I want to wait until Monday @ 14 DPO but I have aaalllll these tests that are calling me, maybe friday, gotta stay strong.

    Feeling about this cycle: eh? if I did indeed O when FF says so then good because we had great timing

    Phantom Symptoms: kinda have breast pain and some cramps, but then i think about it and think no, thats gas, or not, thats normal...or is it?...past 3 days I've been eating hot peppers and cheese slices..yum....?? ...uuhhhh bloated and gassy too....

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? pretty much yes, Ella Lynn and Wesley Brian

    MH's name is Wesley. Not a very common name!

    I really like the name Weston too!

  • Cycle: 4 including two really long ones

    DPO: 8

    Testing Plans: my last LP only lasted 9 days so if I make it to 11DPO I'm using an IC.

    Feeling about this cycle: neutral

    Phantom Symptoms: I had a zillion last cycle and it was BFN and none now so who knows

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? Not really

     

  • Cycle: 3

    DPO: 5

    Testing Plans: probably will start at 10 dpo because i cannot control myself

    Feeling about this cycle: optimistic... but trying to be realistic. Our timing was excellent, but there are no guarantees.

    Phantom Symptoms: some random cramping and I am SO tired today

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? we joke about names a lot, but nothing serious so far

  • Cycle: 7

    DPO: 12

    Testing Plans: yesterday and today..both BFN

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? no

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Good Luck McCombies!

    Cycle: # 2

    DPO: 9

    Testing Plans: I gave in this am, BFN.  I spent the day away from the bump to clear my head a little.  Then I came back on this evening and saw another bumpie with a falsely neg FRER/+ wondfo.  Therefore I will wait a few days before I try again.  And buy a different brand for comparison. 

    Feeling about this cycle: Swaying heavily between really excited/optimistic and totally forlorn/feeling bad. 

    Phantom Symptoms: Still queasy, acne, bloating is somewhat better, increased sense of smell

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? We have options, nothing definite

    Cycle: 3rd

    DPO: I'm almost positive I've ovulated but I think I'm anywhere between 8 DPO and 1 DPO, but I could be even more than that. So should have temped this month. ::facepalm::

    Testing Plans: I was planning on starting to test on the 24th but since my spotting and cramps on my right side last night and not knowing if that was my O or something else I'll probably put it off til the 27th (if I can hold out that is)

    Feeling about this cycle: We pretty much covered all of my fertile window so any of the days that I could have O'd except for 2 we're covered. So I'm feeling pretty awesome about it.

    Phantom Symptoms: Today I had a headache, was dizzy, lightheaded, and a little nauseous, but even if I implanted yesterday they couldn't actually be pregnancy symptoms unless I ovulated SUPER early, so I don't know what it was.

    GTKY: Do you already have baby names picked out? Um heck yeah!!

    Girl: Naomi Faith

    Lorelei Elise
