So, how do you keep your life from revolving around the 2ww?

I'm in a constant state of countdown. Counting until ovulation, then until I can start obsessively peeing on things. The calendar watching has definitely gotten old.

Edited because my auto correct has a sense of humor.

Re: So, how do you keep your life from revolving around the 2ww?

  • Idk.. I used to think both parts of the cycle were annoying, but now on treatment cycles I can say unequivocally the 2ww is a mother fucker. I try to do 'things' but I pretty much just obsess about the cycle during the 2ww. 


    Spontaneous pregnancy #1
    DD1 July 31, 2011

    Trying for #2 since Oct 11
    732973 Clomid Cycles
    2 IUIs 
    3 Fresh IVFs= 1 Ectopic treated with MTX
    Spontaneous pregnancy #2= Ectopic #2= lost left tube
    Spontaneous pregnancy #3= DD2 January 29, 2016
    Spontaneous pregnancy #4= Ectopic #3
    Spontaneous pregnancy #5= Baby #3 is a BOY!!!

  • I don't know- it's been bad for me lately. I have been completely consumed. I agree that I obsess more during the 2ww but it's always on my mind and really getting in the way of the rest of my life right now.
  • I like to read so getting lost in a good book helps me.

  • No clue I have taken four different opks today, because I can't believe my kit hasn't turned yet and just went out to buy a different brand which was also negative. I was at the RE Friday with a nice mature follicle that apparently is never going to drop ~X(

    TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck

    Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man.  Born 12/2/11

    TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended

    Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good.  Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.

    Back with RE as of January 2014...

    5/27/14- Chemical Pregnancy :(

    April 2015 IVF#1

  • Mfi means never having to stress you might be or might not be pregnant... It isn't until my period is a day late or wonky I get excited... And then promptly smacked in the face. I guess seven years finally taught me what for. That was probably something three or four month ago me could have answered!
    January 2007- Stop BCP! Let's DO this!
    June 2010- MFI. BS. IVF! Ectopic. BS. image

    November 2010- FAILED FET! BS!
    January 2011- BFP FET! TWINS!
    February 2011- lost twin. BS. image

    SEPTEMBER 2011- DD Born! Most awesome girl in the world!

    November 2013- FAILED FET! BS! (screw you November FETs)
    April Fresh Cycle, FAILED. Frozen embryos frozen for future FETs.
    FROZEN CYCLE JUNE! BFP
    BABY BOY VINCENT!

  • Ugh, I wish I had the answer to this! I'm supposed to test on Feb 19 and it feels like forever away. I will probably start testing around the 15th. I did a medicated cycle (Clomid + Ovidrel) with TI and want to test far enough from the trigger shot that I won't get a false positive. Trigger was on Feb 3rd.
    BFP: 5/10/14 after 14 cycles of trying!
    EDD: 1/21/15
    5/12 1st beta: 28
    5/14 2nd beta: 87.5
    5/23: 3rd beta: 4000.6 + saw gestational sac and yolk sac
    5/30: 4th beta: 17,852 + saw fetal pole and heard heartbeat! 127 BPM!
