My first month Ttc, I'm 29 oh is 40. Just going through my first tww, didn't help that my cb fm broke after two low fertility days.. Awaiting a replacement. Im on cd 20 and have tender erect nipples with bumpy areolas for the last three days!
I'm looking for advice on getting through the two week wait without imploding!!
Please help!

    Keeping busy is a good one!! Do you talk to friends about it or keep it to yourself?

    As @tigerfish227 said, don't symptom spot.  It will only drive you crazy.  Every person is different.  Early pregnancy symptoms can only be identified in hindsight.  Also, fertility monitors do not let you know that you ovulate, only that you might.

  • Good luck. The TWW boards are probably what you're after. Symptom spotting is really frowned upon here and it's not just because. If you symptom spot all you do is wind yourself up or depress yourself and it doesn't have anything to do with the actual result. Also, a bit of info that has helped me: if you've got symptoms, there's enough to turn a test. If it's BFN then they're not pregnancy symptoms.

    Personally, I talk about it with 1 or 2 people irl. The ladies on here are the ones I discuss with - they know more than the general population anyway.

    Most of my friends already have kids, but it might drive them nuts if I went on about my boobs.

    If you have symptoms caused by pregnancy you have enough hcg to turn a test positive. There is a tww thread that has rants/raves/symptoms where you could post this and get feedback, it prevents congestion on the main board from symptoms that are fairly normal and allows questions to be asked about other things, ie chart stalks, test procedures etc. Otherwise things get missed, if every woman on the forum posts her symptoms and other posts get pushed to page 2and 3.
