Hi all, it's fun to read all your posts and know I'm not alone in this excruciating tww! I'm 7dpo. This was our first month ttc-ing, and I don't expect it to happen right away but I'm still so curious! I just started temping earlier this month and monitoring my CM. Unfortunately we didn't time the BDing as well as we could have because we are putting our home on the market and my DH stayed up all night cleaning the house the night before the realtor photos were taken and was too tired the next day. So we missed two prime days in the middle of my cycle. :-( Looking forward to getting through one more week and crossing my fingers for a BFP! Otherwise, I'm going to clear our schedule for mid-cycle next month and keep temping religiously!
Second TWW for me. Last time I drove myself absolutely nuts with symptom spotting. I am embarrassed by how many HPTs I wasted money on. This time around, I'm not even buying any tests til I'm 10DPO. So glad I started temping. At least now, as long as my temps stay up, it gives me some sense of control that I know what's happening. Good luck to you all!
I am the same...i test even when i know it will be negative for sure. The wait is just so hard. I am 6 dpo and planning on startong at 10 dpo.. but who am i kidding i will probably start at 8 dpo.....good luck...keep us updated!
Hey ladies! I hope everyone is doing well!! I have been CRAZY emotional these past 2 days. I tested yesterday and today both BFN (9 DPO and 10 DPO). Getting majorly discouraged. I'm not usually this emotional about TTC but this month it's really hitting me. AF is due Saturday but it feels like she's gonna show her ugly face any minute now. How are you all doing?
I am only 2 DPO and I get a text from DH, "I'm so excited, can you test today?!" Sigh... what a lovable goober. If only honey...if only lol Gonna be a long wait. Gonna try wait until at least 10 DPO. tick tock tick tock. Best of luck to all you ladies
@Beheat14 yes waiting to O is awful I sure hope that you get confirmation of it soon so you can move to the TWW. As "dreaded" as it is...many of would do anything to just get to that stage
I'm out ladies AF showed 2 days early today. this was our last month TTC until at least May. I wish you all the best of luck! Happy and healthy pregnancies and lots of BFPs
@BHEAT14, what CD are you? I'm also waiting for O but probably have at least another few days. CM is showing signs of fertility but knowing my typical cycle length (I know you can't always count on that but it's all I have to go by since I'm new to temping) it probably won't be until end of weekend or so ... already feeling the impatience!
I'm 12 DPO, and going through the vicious cycle of emotions... Very Hopeful, then grumpy when I realize I shouldn't be so hopeful, then so grumpy that I'm convinced it's PMS ... Haha! But my chart looks pretty good, I'm going to test tomorrow morning
@angchafe, you are a more patient woman than I am! I keep telling myself I'll wait til 10 DPO, but it will probably be more like 8. At least I bought the cheapies this time. I think I peed on about $50 last (my first) cycle. Not making that mistake again!
@concreteayngel haha well I did try at 10dpo to test my luck even though that is wayyy early for my cycle ... But after that I had a ~possible~ implantation dip so my hopes are still up! Since you are charting now, try to follow your temps to see when it would be a good time ... Also, if you haven't already, try searching the community gallery of charts! I know that everyone is different but it has helped me to kinda "analyze" my chart and remain fairly calm about my odds
I am at 8 dpo, first cycle ttc, I am at a verge of peeing on anything that looks like a stick, trying to keep it together for 2 days, gosh this is tough.
I think I will pick knitting back up. Find me a project that will take a week. At least then if I have many more disappointing cycles, I will have baby blankets for all my friends who are turning up pregnant. It's all in the silver lining. Or I guess in this case, the uterine lining. Hahaha see what I did there?
Hahahha....i am so there...i have the cheap tests so i will continue to test with FMU until either two lines...or AF..i dont know why i am doing this to myself...just over anxious to find out whether we hit or missed.
@BHEAT14, I hope those crosshairs show up soon for you! I'm still only CD11 and think I have at least another few days to go. Shorter cycles "usually" but I'm learning you can assume anything with your cycle Good luck to you!
Hahahha....i am so there...i have the cheap tests so i will continue to test with FMU until either two lines...or AF..i dont know why i am doing this to myself...just over anxious to find out whether we hit or missed.
Oh Hello that's me standing right next to you!!! Best of luck to you! Fingers Crossed for both of us!
@Monicabumb yes best of luck to both of us!! Just not feeling "pregnant" this time...but who knows. ...still holding out hope...and peeing on everything! Lol
I'm 5 dpo. Still have a week before I will test. That would put me at 12 dpo. Right now I only have one hpt and it would be nice not to have to buy more. Not sure if it will work out like that!
4DPO and time is crawling by, as usual. Had the "Babe, how much have you spent on HPTs in the last couple months?" talk. Bahaha. :-@ Men! They just don't get it. If DH was going through this, he'd carry EPTs around in his pocket.
That's awesome!! Congratulations @GoodSuri ... I tested this morning and got a bfn ... Thinking il be heading to cycle 4 soon, good luck to the rest of you!!
@angchafe good luck I think I may be getting AF soon still have a couple days it just feels like she may be on her way so I think I'll be hedding into cycle #2 so better luck for us both this time!
Re: The dreaded 2WW!!!
New to the TTC board and we're in month 8. I hope this is the month!! Is it Saturday yet? Going nuts trying to keep my mind occupied.
Anyone start testing yet?
Gonna be a long wait. Gonna try wait until at least 10 DPO. tick tock tick tock.
Best of luck to all you ladies
I sure hope that you get confirmation of it soon so you can move to the TWW. As "dreaded" as it is...many of would do anything to just get to that stage
Hugs

Haha! But my chart looks pretty good, I'm going to test tomorrow morning
Best of luck to you! Fingers Crossed for both of us!
