Joyous June 2WW Thread

I'm SO over temping and am going to stop- it's stressing me out too much. I don't think it's been real accurate for me as my temps have been so high, and I think I FINALLY Oed last night. I had horrific O pains to the point where I couldn't even lie on my left side at all. My CM this morning has dried up finally. Up till now I had tons of creamy CM. Plus my DH couldn't keep his hands off me for the past 2 days, which always means I'm about to ovulate.

I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was a BFN. I'll know 11-13 days from now either way.

This is the first time this has happened to me. Ironically I ran into my RE at the store this morning. He asked how things were going and if we were going to try for #4. I told him we were. He then asked where I was at in my cycle. I told him briefly what is going on. He said good news about delayed ovulation produces a very healthy egg. That was nice to hear because I thought the opposite. He said the body will keep trying until the best egg is released. This typically happens when BFing due to hormones being more influx.

We will BD tomorrow and then again three days from now.

Atomic has told me that delayed O due to PCOS often produces more boys. Delayed O in other situations produces more girls for the same reason that early O does. It's any change from your normal circumstance that often produces more girls.

My opk still not quite +ve, hoping my body just hurries up + ovulates, hate all the gearing up to carry on and then not actually Oing until about a week later. We dtd lastnight so cd 10 + cd 13 covered so far LOL :pinksperm:

It seems all our bodies are making us wait for ovulation this month!! I did a test out of interest this morning cd14 and it was super faint! (Usually pretty dark cd14) may test again tonight before I go to bed to see if things have changed xx

Yeah me too jennypenny, my body is playing tricks on me again . I tested on Tuesday had some pains but not for long that was cd11. Had a decent line so thought yeah O should be soon but no ewcm and pain went so glad I held off cause I thought I was going to O early.
Ran out of opks , don't like using them anyway they just stress me , so today is cd13 and I normally O on cd 14 or 15...

Just had some ewcm , so going to BD tonight ..Eekk wish me luck , god I hope this works this time , I so ready to be pregnant..
Good luck everyone

I totally know what u mean!!!
I really hope u get that bfp this month, you have been so patient!

I may abandon the opks too, they really do stress me out and I suppose the purpose of e4days is to help u relax and not stress about testing.

Hey jennypenny , I hope we get our bfp together we are only a day apart in our cycles .
I'm just over it ... I know its only been 4mths ttc but I'm more than ready, this diet is driving me over the edge unfortunately. I just don't feel healthy . Need all those good things I use to eat. Avocados, olives, MEAT ....

FX for us . And everyone testing this month

I really hope so! This is our 4th month also! I feel rather run down now, keep getting colds and generally feel a bit blah!

I feel in a way though that the time has helped me feel better about probably conceiving another boy. As I now feel so ready to get pregnant!
Also I visited my newborn nephew at hospital last night, he was sooo gorgeous!!! He is my brothers 3rd boy! We have absolutely no girls in our family, including my siblings and cousins children and my husbands siblings and cousins children - all boys!!!

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

Oh wow that's alot of boys. Boys are GREAT love raising them , I know what you mean about having another boy.
I'm ready for another and preparing myself just incase, tho my desire for a girl is so so strong would just be so lovely to be able to experience having a little princess.

Ok enough now I'm getting emotional lol..

Yeah I know what you mean! It would be like winning the lottery! !
I feel emotional whenever my husband imagines about what it would be like to have a little girl. It would just be so lovely for my entire family.

What will be will be though! Need to actually get pregnant first lol!

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

Yes I'm constantly getting ahead of myself too! Need that BFP first! I also would feel so so happy to hear girl, I honestly can't really imagine it, but I'm with you Jenny, all this time swaying and waiting has actually helped me comes to terms with having 3 DS and I can see some benefits to an all boy brood!

CD13 today; away for a few days so not strictly adhering to le but I'm still skipping breakfast, no meat, lots of coffee (!!!), only eaten two meals yesterday and today so long fasts between both BUT kcals and fat are probably off with indulging in some cakes... We dtd on CD11 and will again on CD15. I'm expecting ov to be/have been this week though, had EWCM this week and been fancying random men on the train which usually happens around ov time lmao!!!x

Ps will you all find out gender before birth or will you wait for the surprise?? I really don't think I'd want to know but only because of other people's reactions if it's another boy :( but I do agree with you that I feel more at peace with having another boy having swayed, as at least then I'll know that I've given it my best shot, if after everything, it's another boy then I guess it was meant to be.x

Hahaha fancying random men!!! That's hilarious! !

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

Do you get that JP?? It's so random! I never look twice at other men OTHER than when I'm ov, I practically sit there with my tongue out, ridiculous extreme which I can only put down to hormones lol!x

Haha haha! That pretty much sums me up most of the time lol!! Just kidding, I'm not sure? I will look out for it! I can add it as another symptom on fertility friend lol!!!

Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk

I am going to find out ASAP! I want to start preparing for the family I will have rather than the one I'm imagining! I know my hopes are going to be really high so if it's false hope I want to limit it. I also would love to know before I announce so I can at least prevent the "oh I sooooo hope it's a girl comments" and just get the "oh a third boy...." I'm really prepared for DS3, I feel like I need to build up armor for the comments, they were hard for me with DS2. Ugh.

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Definitely!!!! The sooner I know the sooner i can stop the pressure.
When I went to visit my new nephew last night I was getting the comments already! !
"Maybe sometime you'll be in here holding a baby in a little pink blanket?" It was said in jest but I just felt like hyperventilating! !!

I dont belong on this thread, because im only ttc July so im openly gatecrashing but i wanted to say what a lovely way to put it!! I said a categorical NO to my DH when he suggested we find out sex so we can just get on with it! But i found out sex of my first two so on one hand i feel like its the last time i can have this 'surprise, we not finding out' thing people do AND on the other hand its to protect myself from 20 weeks of a dismal and depressing last trimester if boy! (which i had with DS2) (even though omg he's amazing!) But i like what you did there - you made me look at it differently.. thanks xx

CD15 today and got a darker then control +OPK this morning. We did BD last night and will the next 2-3 nights to make sure we are covered. Have a good feeling about this month, fingers crossed.

Tfahn - That is great you look like you will still ovulate despite the cycle not going to plan. Fx you catch that egg!!

XX - any updates?

Still. No. AF. I'm going to test in the morning. There is a possibility that I'm still in the 2WW and will test again on CD51 or CD52. This is the craziest cycle I've ever had! We keep on BDing so if an egg is released, we are in a good position to catch it!

FX for you Purple and Tfahn!!

BFing does wacky things to cycles. I don't even get a cycle when BFing but then my cycles are wacky anytime!

I started clomid last night so just have to wait and see how it goes 2 rounds in a row. Hopefully it doesn't make me too grumpy and irritable.

Omg XX, I can't believe AF is still a no show! Your chart definitely looks correct now and ovulatory with a clear distinct temp rise. With an 18 day LP you must be pregnant as a LP longer than 16 days is usually a clear indication of pregnancy! FX for your test in the morning (a FRER right)! I'll be stalking!

Still bfn for me and I'm 2 days late.
I posted on Thursday and somehow it didn't go through.
We've had some sort of virus going on, as Ds1 and 2 have been off and on vomiting with high temperatures, and I think I must have caught it too, as I've got high temperature and diarrhea.

Purple, the cheapies that I use are 'clear and simple' and 'firstvue', apparently they're equivalent to the dollar tree ones but I've seen some mixed reviews on them, some swear by them and the others just say that they're a waste of time and money.
After all, I think I've ovulated late or something else is going on.

Xx, good luck tomorrow.
How many times are you BF Ds3?

I think I'm doing a lot of feeding for my ds3's age which is messing things for me plus coming off the Pill.

Thanks ladies! It was so weird. So I set the stick down after dipping it for 5 sec, and I saw a clear second line. It was there for about 45sec to 1 min but was gone at 3 min. I took it apart and it was clearly white- no hint of a second line.

So either it's very early or I'm losing it, hahaha! There is also the possibility that I'm still in the 2WW. I stopped temping because it was stressing me out. I still may be 7-8 days out from getting AF, putting me at either 4-5dpo. Either way, I had an O-1 or an O-2 attempt. We keep BDing whenever my DH wants (every 3-4 days) just in case.

I've stopped exercise since I have a lot going on with kids ATM. I am skipping/delaying breakfast and sticking to limits of fat and protein. My DS3 is cutting his first set of teeth slowly and is BFing a lot so I'm eating a bit more empty carbs to keep up my milk supply. I'm hoping that the close spacing and BFing helps! I'm going to start running tomorrow since my DH said he will support me with that by watching all of the kids. We will see how that goes [emoji6].

FX and GL to everyone! I'm sure I'll still be on the TTC train, hahaha!

XX I, hope this is your month! I have had "moving Lines" on FRERs that are there for a bit then move on down to eventually hold and the BFN line.

I got a really faint bfp this morning. I'm not freaking out about it yet because I really don't know if its a sticky one. Today is my 3rd day of spotting that started at 9 dpo, so I decided to test this morning (taking into account sudden nausea). I couldn't get aclear picture of it, so I will test again monday ands ee if its a chemical or a solid little bean in there.

Kinda freaky, after the dust has settled Im not sure i EVER want to go thru it again, and quite frankly have NO FAITH in my body to carry it off well, so I guess I see no point in having a heart attack or getting excited.

My SIL is announcing her first baby tonight. I'm excited for them but super emotional and now this! I did tell DH this morning, he took it really well (this is an accident, I tried to be SUPER safe and use DOUBLE spermacide film for EXTRA safety and they balled together and fell out in one undissolved goo ball an hour after we dtd, 36 hours before O...) THAT said, i think if its MEANT to happen IT WILL, WHEN it's MEANT TO and its really out of our hands. My new OBGYN convinced me of this.

ANYWAY, will report back monday with a digi NOT pregnant or PREGNANT. we shall see!

Yesterday I got a +ve opk (just about the same darkness as control line) + then this morning and all day today my opks have been blaring +ve with test line way darker than the control!! This is cd17, we dtd cd 10,13,15 + 17. More than i wanted to but wanted to make sure i done it on the day of strongest opk as thats where i think ive been goin wrong. GL ladies pink dust xx:pinksperm:

Xx I read your entire crazy cycle in this thread and looked at your chart--NUTS! The thermal shift seems pretty clear tho and I would guess you ovulated when it suggests. All my girls were late bfps. With my first daughter I was 4 days late and got a super faint bfp then a negative so went to the dr. With the last baby which was a girl I was 4 days late when I tested and it was not dark. It was clear but still faint. By no means dark like with the boys that had stronger result lines than test lines! You may just need to give it a couple of days and test again.

I thought I'd be cool waiting for Monday but I feel all hell bent. Especially since my sil announced tonight she's 10 weeks!

Even still....not sure I'd manage to keep a baby past 24 w at this point so no use stressing now.

Gl, I'm stalking your posts now!

I know! I'm sure my crazy cycle is because I'm BFing still. Although I only BF once overnight and he is toying with dropping that right now. He's BFing a little less during the day but only started casually eating solid foods he can feed himself. He hates being spoon fed- I can't say I blame him, hahaha!

We just keep plugging along and BDing every few days.

I'm also stalking your posts! I'm hoping that this has a happy ending! Thank you for mentioning about getting late BFPs with your girl pregnancies. I had a late BFP with my DS2, but nothing like this! I just think my body is working on making one (hopefully just one!) helluva healthy egg!

FX so hard for you!!

Cd 16 today and dtd this am when should have been yesterday for e4d as last BD on Tuesday... Had loads of EWCM yesterday and possibly some cramping so maybe too late??? Will see what happens with EWCM over the next couple of days though... Diet was awful yesterday as at a friends for a bbq :/ x

CD17 today and I believe 1 DPO. Had lower left pains Friday evening and also again yesterday with a bigger temp rise this morning; Will try to BD one more time tonight just to make sure I'm covered. Got my blood test results from Friday that I took at +OPK, my estradiol was 226, this is the highest it has ever been for me, so exicted!

Yay Tfahn! That is awesome! FX so hard for you!!!

That's awesome tfahn, fx for this cycle.

Xx - I'm keeping fx for you this cycle too. Can't believe you got a bfn the other day, thought for sure you would've got bfp.

Good luck to everyone else.

I'm on cd3 today, we are not trying this month as the kids have a karate Comp at the Gold Coast around the time I would be due if I got a bfp this month. They are really excited to go & I need a cesarean so baby would need to come a week early & I couldn't go with a week old baby & trying to recover as well. Really thought I would be pregnant by now, not sure if I should go to the dr to get some tests done or if we just keep trying after this month & see what happens. We have 3 healthy kids already so maybe we are not meant to have anymore.

Well its 4 days of spotting for me now, even after I started my progesterone yesterday. Testing tomorrow, feeling anxious. DH and I talked about it and while we wanted a couple more months, if this is it its ok.

I feel ambiguous no matter what, I know I will never feel excited about a pregnancy again until I am 28 weeks along at least. I start grief counselling for it tomorrow, i decided I have to to move forward with TTC and another baby or I'll never survive the pregnancy.

I expect a bfn tomorrow. my queasiness has eased a little already yesterday and today, tho i do know that progesterone is supposed to help it--I think it reeks of a chemical.

A few more hours will tell. Is it morning yet?

XX still stalking your chart! It looks very promising. I dont think I quite told you HOW bad it was with DD 1. 4 days late. 1 CBE. SUPER faint. thought it was defective, phoned the company. Went to store. Bought a 2 pack and retested. BFN. Retested next morning. still BFN. Called drs office who took me in for their dip test. BFP. It was a roller coaster! I'm glad I was too young and dumb to know about chemicals then!

On the crappy side, I feel really ungrateful but I am pretty sure this one is a boy. I want a girl, and I know I on;y get to have one more. I will be happy for ANY baby, but cant help wishing I had the same symptoms as last time when here was a little pink bean in there. Maybe it doesn't matter anyway, maybe I can't haev another no matter how much I try, so I guess theres no point worrying about it.

Funny how that loss changed me from the TWW freak to the whatever queen...

I'm so sorry you've had to go through all that you have. I am hoping and praying that all of this works out to finally bring your rainbow baby to you!

I've stopped temping. I'm only tracking my CM and when we BD. I'm getting horrible sleep with DS3 cutting teeth. AF is late according to the third time I could have ovulated. I'll know more by CD50-52, which is when AF could be due yet for a fourth time.

I won't test again until next Saturday or Sunday. I think I've kept my fat too low so I've upped it a bit to 50-60g. Hopefully that will send a signal to release the damn egg already, hahaha!

Annoying xx, I feel for you.

Got a bfp AND af this morning. Af is just starting, after the bfp.

It's ok. I'm not ready yet.

Gl to everyone in the tww, xx I'm stalking!

I would test again in a few days. It's possible that you could still be pregnant and the embryo has just embedded on or near a blood vessel. I had this happen with DS3, and I thought I was miscarrying.

FX!

I have my follow up GYN appointment in 40 minutes. She'll do another ultrasound to check my endometrioma on my left ovary. Hopefully it shrunk! These menopause pills have sucked! I was supposed to skip a period but instead had 12 days of light bleeding, plus acne and feeling angry and short tempered all the time!!!! And DH is still pulling out while I'm on these pills!

Ovary endometrioma didn't shrink at all. She wants to remove it surgically and go in and see if there's endometriosis in other places. And a hysteroscopy to look inside my uterus too for any fibroids. They'll call later today to schedule. I'll stay on my menopause pills till after the procedure.
