TTC January 2014

Anybody else TTC this month or in the 2 Week Wait like me? Let's support each other!

I'm having a hard time sticking to the diet and exercise as I've been stress eating all week! Still eating vegetarian though and surprisingly still losing weight. My kids have been sick so I haven't been able to take time to exercise either. :/ hoping I'm pregnant so this won't throw off my sway for next month.

We has our attempt on January 10th, planning to test on the 25th, maybe later on the 27th if my period hasn't showed up just to get a solid result on the strip and 27 is my lucky number. :-) the waiting is rough!

I'm on the same schedule as you. Fingers crossed.

Hiya I'm in same boat, this 2ww is feeling really hard this month! Driving myself totally nuts with symptom spotting!!! Had AF pains since I ovd which was only 6 days ago!!! I'm a poas junkie so am goin to start on 9dpo which is this Monday!!
Are you having any symptoms?
Xxx

Oh jeeze, Fbunny! My earliest test day is Monday too! (I JUST checked before I hopped on the computer because I'm a freak! I might wait until at least Wednesday though.)

My husband is pretty sure that I'm pregnant this month as it only took us once with each of our boys but I'm trying to be cautious since a lot of the stuff we do to sway girl hinders pregnancy anyway! I don't want to be too disappointed if I'm not pregnant. I have been having cramping since yesterday which was 6DPO.

I have two early response tests so I may do at least one early test. I have a bunch of those lab test strips but I don't think they're as sensitive as Early Response.

And I had a bit of spotting today! I may just pee on a stick tonight for the hell of it. Lol.

I am! Tonight actually, lol :) I'm really hoping this is our month! Definitely ready to get back to a normal diet too.

Hi there,
I am on my 2ww. Its a horrible Waiti feeling and my dh is not helping by saying he feels me different. I dtd on cd#19 & 20 which were 1/13/14 & 1/14/14 😃. I am nervous and dont know what to expect. This is my first try after doing 5 practice cycles with no bd. I am also stress eating and not healthy stuff at all 😩. Im 🙏we all get our bfp's!

Hoping this is the month for us all! After work today I picked up some early response tests so I can test all week. I would love to get back to eating breakfast. I miss cereal!

Well Arimethia I gave in and tested yesterday 7dpo.... And funny o thing it was bfn!!!
Today I've got slight AF pains again which I'm hoping is a good sign as not DO until sat so v unusual to have that this early?
What's everyone's early signs st the moment?
Not long left before we can all test!:)

Gah! My opk was stronger Saturday morning than today...really hope we didn't miss my egg :-/ annnnnnd now the wait begins!

I took a test this morning, 8 DPO, it was a BFN! I figured it would be but so frustrating still. I think I'm going to wait until Wednesday to test again. I've still been having cramps, felt super exhausted last night and went to bed around 930.

Today my husband has some kind of stomach bug has been throwing up all day so soon as I got home from work I was taking care the kids and cleaning up the house. I went back to counting calories today but because my husband sick I was not able to get back to exercising. Really helping aunt Flo doesn't show up this month!

Oh BethWade that's why they tell you not to test after you've gotten a positive! Sticky dust to you!

Fbunny3 I was thinking about that today and I can't remember how early I tend to start cramping anyway but I know I do start spotting several days before my I Actually start AF so that's what I'm going to be looking out for. So far so good.

9dpo and I caved in again, bfn!!! Going to not test again until Friday..... Famous last words!!;) bet I'll be here again tomorrow with a test result!;)
Fingers crossed ladies!:)

Hi Girls,

I'm in the 2WW too. I think I'm 3DPO. I'll be testing 10DPO :)
I know how you feel, can't wait to eat cereal and have breakfast every day!!!.
Good luck!! xx

I'll be 10DPO tomorrow, but I was going to try and hold off until Wednesday to test again.

I admit that while I'm staying in my calorie range I'm back to eating three small meals and snacking, but I am trying to make sure I'm legit hungry before I eat anything. When my blood sugar is low I get really impatient with my kids and that was getting old. Still meatless though, and LE.

Feeling slightly nauseas but considering my family has been passing around a stomach bug it could go either way. Hoping I'm pregnant and not getting sick.

I hope the crampiness and fatigue is a sign for you! <3 how yuck that your hubs is sick :( stomach bugs are the WORST!

my opk wasn't actually positive (or not according to their definition) bc the line was the exact same as the indicator...so I was expecting it to get darker the next day, but it didn't :-/ my temp has been steady but last night I started cramping and this morning my temp shot up. So maybe I ovulated 2dp+opk? This is my second cycle and if have a feeling it's not going to be this month...my boys both took 3 cycles and I think we just had to keep DTD later and later until we hit my o date. Lol

I have completely flubbed my diet the past few days. Last night I probably ate over 2500 calories. :tissue: I was just really nauseas when I didn't have food in my stomach. I haven't exercised in what feels like forever. I tested again this morning, 9DPO and BFN, super hoping I won't have to start over with my sway because I think I've completely screwed it up the last week!

Hi Arimenthia,

I am right there with you. I am doing the boy diet and eating dairy and calcium foods :sad: I am at 9DPO today. started having really bad cramps since yesterday. Not the usual AF cramps. These are a more in the center. I know I am not crazy because these cramps different and they have been quite strong since last night!. Today I feel some bloating, my CM is super duper creamy, and my cervix is super soft. Not usually like this btw. I just hope we get a BFP soon. I am trying to hold my self from obsessing over it but this cramping plus nausea this morning is not helping or letting me focus with my daily tasks and work. I am tempted to go to the dollar store and buy some HPT's and take one each day in the am to keep me at ease but I know that's not going to help one bit. However I am saving my pretty ones for the big day with are the first response HPT (pack of three). I don't have any additional ones :( I am also trying to hold off till 14 DPO wich would be till after next tuesday :nails: However I have heard there is still a chance of a BFN. I hate that websites and everywhere I read advises you to keep calm and focus on something else. Telling a woman trying to conceive to not obsess is as useless a woodpecker with a rubber beak :twins: Wishing you all lots of baby dust and let continue on this wonderful 2WW journey :) Please keep us updated with your status :)

I know what you mean by saving your "pretty tests"! I have a bunch of lab strips but only two pretty tests but they're the First Response tests and I want to save at least one of those for a for sure BFP for pictures. Lol

I got back on the diet today and my husband let me nap which helped me in the nausea department. I had some light brown discharge today which kinda made me worry but my husband thinks he remembers it being like that the last time we conceived.

I may just buy some more pretty tests so I can use my First Response tests tomorrow and Friday lol! Cramping as we speak!

5dpo and don't feel pregnant AT all. :shrug: :thumbsdown:

5DPO is pretty early, sometimes the egg doesn't even implant until after your missed period. There's hope yet!

11DPO today, BFN this morning, I was sure I'd see something since I was stupid nauseas last night. :hair: I keep saying I'll wait until I missed my period to test but I can't seem to keep from torturing myself.

I'm getting the dark spotting that comes a few days before my period is supposed to start, I had another BFN this morning. It's looking likely that I am NOT pregnant and I completely messed up my sway for next month by eating wonky and not exercising all week. I am so upset.

Last month we did one attempt night of first positive OPK, I was on centrizine and benadryl, baby aspirin, exercising an hour every day, LE diet, Rephresh every three days after period. Husband was wearing whitey tighties, Licorice root and FR. I'm wondering what we should drop to get a BFP next month. Maybe do more than one attempt?

Yuck :( That was me last month too. Im so sorry! :( I dunno what AS would say but maybe drop the Rephresh? I think she mentioned it's not getting the results to justify it...but don't quote me on that ;)

Yeah, I was thinking I'd drop the Rephresh too, and do more than one attempt in the fertile window, possibly one at +OPK and one two days later. If I don't get pregnant in the next two months I will have to skip a month to avoid a Christmas time due date. I also want to avoid driving in the snow during labor if possible.

It's official! AF showed up today. :tissue:

I think we'll be more aggressive about trying to get pregnant next month, off to join the February group!

Awwww Arimethia,
Dang af just doesn't give up. Im only 2 days head of you with AF. Im excited to try again in a few days !
