Trouble TTC

2WW anyone?

Who else in the 2WW of mind games? 

My body has been driving me nuts.  I've been so light headed the last 2 days that when I stand up I have to sit back down.  Still having weird cramping that feels more like when I had my HSG then when I have AF.  Trying not to over analyze my chart between now and Saturday when I'll be 14DPO.

Re: 2WW anyone?

  • I am.  I haven't really had any symptoms other than some light pink spotting yesterday.  It's driving me crazy too.  Hang in there!

  • Me.  I'm not having any phantom symptoms yet, I'm only 4 DPO.  But man, I hate waiting.  SO much. 
  • I am as well.  I am just starting the mind games.  Creamy CM is leaking out of me every time I stand up.  I am also having lots of O pains, well, it feels like O pains.  It's to the side.  Other than that, pretty much like normal I guess.

    I am testing on Saturday as well.  I know that's a little early, but I've never waited that long before, so I'll be surprised if I make it.

    OP - I swear I can feel when my cervix opens and closes.  It's sharp pain that I can feel underneath at the bottom of my girl parts.  It happens a few days beforehand and then a few days after.  Odd, I know.  I was thinking that's what you were talking about.  But maybe you are talking about the HSG uterus cramps.

     ETA:  My chart is doing some weird things this month.  My only other times temping I had 1 BFP and 1 BFN and it didn't go this crazy either time.  What gives?

  • Me too!  I seriously have myself so convinced this time.  I have been having really bad cramping.  I am forcing myself to wait at least one more week to test.  I also gave up charting about three cyles ago, all day today I kept wishing I still was so at least I would have some idea.

  • I am so glad to log-in and see this thread! I am also on the 2WW bandwagon (3DPIUI - so BrideonJuly we are cycle twins!) and could use the support. 

    I was feeling pretty positive this cycle (saw a 16mm follicle on CD12 u/s even w/out medication - no clomid due to cyst from last cycle) but my crazy temperature chart is playing with my mind. I was low Thurs/Fri - spiked Sat - then dropped on Sunday and had a slight rise today. UGH. I'm just hoping i O'd Fri or Sat (days of IUIs). Other symptoms (EWCM and +OPK) point to these 2 days as the O-window but i can't shake this crazy temp chart. I hope i ended up O'ing!!!

    I started progesterone pills last night and my plan is to start testing 2/6 (10DPIUI), which is early but i don't think i can stand the build-up of waiting until AF.

    FX for all of us!! 

     

    Me: 31yrs old. In same/sex relationship for 12years
    I'm carrying & we are using anonymous donor sperm
    In March 2012 diagnosed with Diminished Ovarian Reserve (AMH = O.67) & IVF recommended

    FET (2 5dt embryos) on 11/5/12= BFP! Beta #1=58; Beta #2=98, Beta #3=373. First u/s on 11/28/12 = 1 sac with fetal pole & heartbeat! Next u/s = 12/12/12

    TTC History
    IVF#1 (Antagonist Protocol) Sept 2012 = BFN
    10R; 8F; 4 Day5 GradeA embryos. Put back 2, froze 2.
    12 IUIs (in 9 cycles) since March 2011:
    6 unmedicated/unmonitored = BFNs
    3 with Clomid/Trigger/monitoring/progesterone = BFNs
    "The Spirit of God moves over the formless void, over the darkness and deep, over the surface of the waters. When there is nothing...God is still there."

  • My mind games haven't started yet but I have been crampy. Though i think it's just because I had so many follies this month. I am 4 dpiui so brideonjuly8 I think we are cycle buddies. I plan to test 2/9 if AF doesn't show by then. Last month on Follistim she came 1 week early. FX for eveyone!!

  • I am too! and am going crazy. I'm 10dpiui (so 11dpo) and I'm not really having any symptoms. I did a medicated IUI (Clomid + TI) and had 2 19.5mm follies on my right at time of trigger. I've been ok so far, but now I'm panicking for a couple reasons: my RE never had me go back for 7dpo and never suggested Progesterone (so I don't even know where that leaves me) and I have AF symptoms (tired, face breaking out, some cramps that come and go). I'm just totally frustrated. I don't even have my beta until next Thursday which is 20dpiui!!! Anyway, I hope everyone else is surviving the 2ww and doing better than I am hahha. GL ladies!

    It's definately my uterus that is cramping.  It feels like stabbing pains or twinges more than cramps.  It was only 6DPO and 7DPO that i had these feelings.  I've had a little bit of cramping yesterday but today its been the lightheaded feeling.  In fact I was just in my managers office and had to sit back down because I was so light headed.

    On Friday DH kept asking me if I had been crying because my eyes looked funny.  I think I'm just reaching now but they say the eyes always tell you first.

     Maybe it's the clomid that is causing your chart to be crazy?

  • I am, too!  I am 7dpiui and had some spotting on 5dpiui.  I am trying not to read too much into symptoms because I am on progesterone.  I have had some cramping, extreme tiredness, and heartburn.

    December 2011 - IUI#1 Re-do- Clomid + 12/19 Trigger + 12/21 = BFN
    January 2012 - IUI#2- Clomid + Estrace CD13 + trigger + 1/22 = BFN February 2012 - IUI#3 - Clomid + Estrace - Failed to respond to Clomid found on CD 13 monitoring.

  • I'm right there with you, 9dpo.  I have been having cramps for 4-5 days now and it's driving me nuts.  Also been having an abnormal backache for 3-4 days now too.  I actually laid with a heating pad last night and it helped.  I'm praying these are all my miracle signs.  We'll see but I know I can't wait until Saturday to test.  I'm going to POAS Thursday which will be 12dpo and the same day as my new RE appt.  I have high hopes for this cycle for some reason.  I've worked myself up but I'm trying to balance my emotions.  My chart is so pretty and this is the first cycle I've actually charted so I'm excited.

    I hope that AF stays away. There can always be hope till she shows even if it is just a little. 

    FX for everyone that's in the 2WW.

  • I am! I am 10dp FET and my first beta is on Thursday!!! I can't decide if I wan to take a HPT before Thursday or not. I'm too scared I'll see a negative if I do, but then I do want to test because I'm hopeful for a positive. I had a dream the other night about getting a positive HPT. I hope it's more than wishful thinking! :o)

  • Sore boobs, headache, twinges of cramps are all symtoms of AF, but at the same time, I'm late.  Tomorrow I go in for my beta and I'll be 15pdiui.  So I'm sitting on the fence, BFN or BFP.  My poor students are going to have to tread lightly until I get my results.  Still have my fingers crossed.
