Infertility
2 ww and losing my mind....
Hello ladies!! Currently I'm in the 2 ww and it's blowing my mind away wondering if I'm going to get a BFN or BFP. Since my IUI, I've had sore breasts/nipples, I'm bloated, and even getting some pressure in my uterus. On Sun, 2/2, will be my 13dpiui. I wonder if any other ladies out there who had an IUI has had simlilar symptoms and got the BFP. I don't want to get my hopes up and then get crushed by AF.

The maddening thing is how the symptoms can be either pregnancy or period. I know the struggle! We went through 3 natural cycle IUIs, and just got our positive result today!
My symptoms were pretty much the same except for a couple of things: my back and hips ached, and the spotting I typically had 12 days after the trigger shot didn't happen. My nausea and sore bbs are similar...but a little more pronounced. The soreness is different...more electric than achy. Also, instead of cramps, I have had little pulls and twinges instead.
I know the temptation is to over analyze everything....but I will tell you what a friend told me (she also struggled with infertility)...if it doesn't happen this month...there are other months. Everything you do gives your doctor that much more information to work with....and one day, you will have your happy ending.
While this is tough, mommies like us will appreciate every pound, stretch mark, and dirty diaper so much more than those who take it all for granted.
Hugs and prayers for you!

Agreed - the 2ww is torture!!! My last two FETS I got PG (and subsequently had miscarriages), and this time I am not feeling the tweaks/twinges I did previously. Therefore making me feel like this is definitely a BFN, and as a result, making me nuts. I tested today (which is early, I know - 7dp5dt), and it was negative.
Keep your chin up - and know there are others suffering along with you!
My TTC Journey:
Dx: Hypothalamic amenorrhea / mild PCOS (Pretty much a hormone/ovulatory disorder)

FET # 2 - 1 transferred on 11/01/12. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): 337; Beta#2: 769. BFP!!! 1st ultrasound 11/28/12 showed heartbeat, but measuring 5 days behind. 2nd ultrasound 12/05/12 - miscarriage.

Attempted an IUI in late August 2013, but didn't respond well.
IVF #2 with PGS - Stims started 10/28 with retrieval on 11/11. Of 14 mature eggs, 10 fertilized, 4 made it to Day 5 & 1 made it to Day 6. We did PGS on the Day 5 embryos, and 3 of 4 were normal. Had ET on 11/17. Beta #1 (8dp6dt): 203. Beta #2 (10dp6dt): 618. We since had two ultrasounds & on 12/19, our RE released us to the OB. On 1/02/14, we had our first ultrasound with the OB where we heard the heartbeat. We are so thankful for the blessing & crossing every finger & toe for a healthy & successful pregnancy.
