TWW post (week of 10/5 - 10/11)

emsmama15 · October 2015

Hi everyone! This is a two week wait post for anyone who is in or soon will be in the TWW. Tell us your symptoms (no matter how crazy they may be!), how many DPO you are, and when/if you'll test. Good luck everyone!

Please let us get some BFPs - and no more drive-bys!! WTH?!!

Whiggrrl65 · October 2015

Seriously what is up with the drive bys? I just saw another one on the infertility board. So rude.

I am 7dpiui today. Symptom today was heart burn. Definitely made me suspicious because it's not a typical issue for me--but it's gone away so I'm chalking it up to something I must have ate.
I'm having typical cramping from the progesterone suppositories and that's about it.

Beta scheduled for next Monday but I have to push it to Tuesday because of an early work meeting. Planning to take a hpt on Saturday at 12dpiui.

Hoping we all get our BFPs this cycle!!

Hi all!

I'm 3dpo today according to FF. I have no symptoms of anything. My low back is very sore, but I don't think that's connected to TTC.

Have a ton of cheapies I want to pee on but don't want to be disappointed. It's slightly less disappointing to get AF than to hope to see two lines and not. AF is due Oct 16 at the latest so will definitely test Oct 17 if she hasn't made her appearance by then. My OB wants me to start progesterone suppositories right when I get a bfp though, so that makes me think I should test earlier to get started on them earlier if it is positive.....

I think I'm just overthinking things. These two weeks sure do drag.

I turn 37 at the end of November and so badly want a bfp before then.

How does everyone else handle the tww? I have no time to think about it during the day, but obsess at night.

Good luck to everyone!

Whiggrrl65 · October 2015

I have been handling it by lurking the June 16 BMB. I just love to torture myself.

daisy62103 · October 2015

@whiggrrl65 ah yes I've been there...

Sporty1216 · October 2015

Posted on the old tww post that I too had some heartburn and nausea. So tempted to make it mean something. But trying to remain rational. I'll test on 10/14 since we leave for vacation on 10/15, which is also when AF is due. I *so* want to show up at my parents' house with good news....

1inthehopper · October 2015

Agreed, drive by was very random! What I loved though was that no one started freaking out on the person, making fun of them or lashing out. That would have happened on other boards. Love the drama free zone here!!!!

thistle8677 · October 2015

I'm waiting to O..think it's happening tonight. We'll see what my temps do in the morning. I got a peak reading yesterday and today.
Good luck ladies! Fx for everyone [-O<

Ps. Not sure what the drive-by are about...
I agree with @1inthehopper, it's nice we don't have drama here.

Jenniferk08 · October 2015

I'm on day 8 of the 2ww and going crazy. I've been doing an HPT every morning since Saturday. Thank God for wondflo so I have a pack of 50.
I've been extremely tired lately like I fell asleep on the couch around 2:30 on Saturday. But I'm up early during the week and have a 4 year old so could just be I'm exhausted. Lots of heartburn lately but who knows. Unless I have a positive HPT I'm not looking into anything as a symptom.

agriffin92013 · October 2015

Test date was 10/5 came back BFN. Still just spotting Had horrible cramps Friday morning like my stomach was being torn apart. Called nurse yesterday and she said to test every few days until I start or get a positive. Told DH if neither came by the end of the week I'm gonna call back. Next IUI will be my last since RE will only do 3 because he says the chances go down after the 3rd one and we decided when we first started talking to RE we would not do IVF. FX for more BFPs

1inthehopper · October 2015

Sorry @agriffin92013

redheadbride15 · October 2015

Hi everyone. I'm just lurking and I want to say GOOD LUCK and I'm totally rooting for BFPs!!!! I need some of you excellent ladies to come help me control all the 20 year-olds on the June BMB board

CourtJack · October 2015

Hi ladies. I'm new here. Just realized this board is here! I hope this is ok as an intro instead of a diff post.

I'm 35 and ttc #3. I'm planning on testing Thursday when AF is supposed to show up.

Good luck to everyone this month! FX

Sporty1216 · October 2015

So sorry @agriffin92013 I hope the cramping, etc sorts out. And, if there's not a BFP lurking around in there for you this time, here's hoping the next one is THE one!

jilligan14 · October 2015

@agriffin92013 so sorry! What a bummer. I hope the next time is it for you!

I'm still waiting to O but just wanted to say I'm cheering you all on! Go team! Go team! Go team!

CourtJack · October 2015

@agriffin92013 - fx for you that there is a sneaky BFP on it's way. If not, then I hope next time is IT!

agriffin92013 · October 2015

Thank you @Sporty1216 @jilligan14 and @CourtJack FX for y'all also

ladeuce13 · October 2015

I'm waiting to O . . . so nothing to report here

Whiggrrl65 · October 2015

I know you guys can relate: I went to the supermarket tonight and just happened to walk down the pharmaceutical aisle to see how much their hpts are. One was on sale and I had it in my hand and thought, can I wait til Saturday? I quickly threw it back on the shelf and ran away because there is no way if I have a HPT in the house I won't pee on it!

Jentje79 · October 2015

I was getting excited because I was one day late.... But AF arrived this morning... And very heavy. Just started drinking some herbal concoction that my boyfriend 's relative brought for me from Dominican Republic. Let's see how it goes this new cycle. Keeping my fingers crossed for all the ladies who are still in the 2ww.

thistle8677 · October 2015

Sorry AF came @Jentje79 ...
I'm curious about the herbs you're drinking? Is it to help regulate cycles?

Teenie16 · October 2015

I probably O'd today since I got a trigger shot at my OB's office yesterday. It usually happens CD13 or 14 since I hadn't by CD15 they checked and I had a follicle that measured 2.5 so they gave me the shot. I'm hopeful that it helps. My birthday is 10/16 and AF is due 10/17. A BFP would be a nice birthday present...

agillespie15 · October 2015

Good luck!!!!!! Hoping for a BFP for you!!! Happy Birthday btw!

agriffin92013 · October 2015

I'm out. AF showed up this morning. Waiting on nurse to call be to see if RE will change meds up since this will be last IUI. FX for the rest in TWW

Sporty1216 · October 2015

So sorry @Jentje79 and @agriffin92013 Here's hoping next cycle is your cycle! And I hope something nice happens today for each of you.

Jentje79 · October 2015

@thistle8677 l have no idea what it's called, I'll ask again and let you know. According to the lady that brought it for me, it's supposed to "let one stick for sure" . It's popular for that purpose in her country.
@Sporty1216 thank you for the nice wishes. Chocolate would be good...the one with hazelnut in it

pumaprnc7 · October 2015

I'm in the TWW now and going crazy trying to keep myself busy. Only symptoms are a bit of cramping and I know it's normal but it makes me wonder if IUI worked. I'm 7dpiui will POS on 15th. Hopeful, scared, and excited all at once. Good luck to all of you for a BFP!!!!

thistle8677 · October 2015

@agriffin92013 sorry AF showed

thistle8677 · October 2015

@Jentje79 I love that!

lickastick · October 2015

*loss mentioned

I haven't had a chance to check in here yet but i am 7-8dpo and in my TWW! This is our 3rd cycle trying and i am feeling some serious symptom spotting that feels alot like when i was pregnant before, I lost that pregnancy at 8 weeks. I am feeling dull cramping, crazy full breasts but craziest of all.... *tmi*.... my nipples are staying hard all the time which happened when i was pregnant before. I feel like this cycle could be the one, but i dont feel like i should get too excited. I guess i just have to wait and see! Wishing everyone in the TWW best of luck!

agillespie15 · October 2015

I am 2dpo so I guess I'm officially in the TWW!!!! AF is due 10/20. Praying she never shows and I get a BFP!!!!!!!! 2nd month of TTC, hoping it happens fast for us.

agriffin92013 · October 2015

FX @agillespie15

Sporty1216 · October 2015

@createillumination --I hear ya! My boobs were SUPER sore this morning (and are still sore this afternoon) and I was like "what the heck is going on?!" And then I responded to myself with a really sophisticated "ooohhhh---that's a symptom!" I am going crazy. Feeling that lump in my throat I had when pregnant with LO and now the sore boobs. It needs to be next Wednesday NOW so I can test.

thistle8677 · October 2015

@Sporty1216 fx!

Whiggrrl65 · October 2015

Looks like I'm out. I'm 12 DPIUI and bfn this am on a FRER. I really thought this was it after doing injectibles. I'm trying not to be devastated. I know that sounds dramatic but this just sucks so bad. My 38th birthday is two months away and I really wanted to be pregnant by 38.

We are going to try one more IUI and then take a break. I've been doing medicated cycles since May and want to give my body a break. I'm glad to have a plan but this sucks.

Sporty1216 · October 2015

I'm so sorry @Whiggrrl65 I'm glad you have a plan too, but it does suck. Darn it.

jilligan14 · October 2015

@Whiggrrl65 - so sorry! What a bummer!!

daisy62103 · October 2015

@Whiggrrl65 I'm sorry!

(Saved my edit and it still didn't show my whole comment. But it said "Sorry to hear it, whiggrrl65!")

thistle8677 · October 2015

I'm so very sorry @Whiggrrl65

KLake42 · October 2015

I'm 12dpo/dpiui today, and I want to hold out until tomorrow to test. Today is Pride, and I'm participating with my church in the parade (will hopefully snag a spot on the sparkly float, where I can help shoot off the confetti cannon!), and I don't want to be depressed all day with a BFN. I only had one follicle this time, and the frozen donor sperm count was a bit lower than usual, so while I'm trying to feel positive, I won't be surprised by a BFN. After this, we start talking IVF.

So the good news is, I think I broke my addiction to peeing on sticks! I really think I'll manage waiting for tomorrow.
