January 2WW!

[yamanote]

Oh, and got a bfn when I poas' d this morning...but I'm waiting to see what tomorrow's test shows up since it seems more likely I'd have a decent amount of hgc tomorrow if this weekend was implantation (and not just a random terrible backache, boobache and fever)

Crossing fingers for tomorrow!

Anchor? Whatcha got? :-)

TTCPink? How's it going this morning?

Didn't realize it was so early for your cramping but egg can fertilize 6-12 dpo.

GL tomorrow Yamanote, sorry about the BFN

Yep the really bad cramps were on the late evening of 5 dpo then I really didn't feel anything yesterday, but I may have spoken too soon! I'm starting to cramp again but not nearly as bad at 5 dpo.

Knowing your friend got a bfp at 11 but not earlier makes me feel more confident in trying to wait until 11 dpo to test. It is funny how only 4 days out, I am experiencing what I am sure are psychosomatic symptoms, though, and I want to know as soon as possible. I've wanted this for so long, and while my two boys were so quickly conceived, I don't have the same confidence this time. There is more emotion tied up in it this time. Getting a dpn will definitely be disappointing, although reading all that you ladies have written makes me know that I am not alone which is huge.

Thorz, I wouldn't think that a break in the cramping would mean anything. I remember with my first pregnancy feeling something really early on but second guessing myself because I felt 'normal' again. Friday is your big day, right?

Yes Friday will be 10dpo so I really want to wait until then! But I know that I will be tempted to POAS earlier, I just hate all the BFN so I'm gonna try my hardest to wait until then! I hear you on the psychosomatic symptoms I have felt them every time these last 3 cycles. This is my only cycle with no real symptoms other than the cramping so that worries me a little.

BFN The thing is...I really FEEL pregnant this month. Cramping, sore bbs, a couple of weird headaches. I know I'm not out yet, but now I'm regretting POAS today. Why didn't I wait 'til 12dpo? Aaaaaaaaaargh, so frustrating, now I'm just in a crappy mood.

You're not out either yamanote. And 'til I hear otherwise, I'm not counting TTC pink out yet either...

So sorry!!! We really need some BFP in here so I'm holding out hopes for all you ladies who are in the window!!! I don't think we have had any BFP in the January 2ww and if we have it isn't many....Lets get them started with you ladies who are at or past 10dpo!!!!!!! Positive thoughts coming your way!

Thanks Anchor! I know, this is the first time since last summer's chemical that I truly feel pg again! I think we just got antsy.... tomorrow or Thursday maybe we'll get our bfp's :-) good luck!!

I am feeling like I let myself get way too hopeful this month. BFN this morning for me this morning. Still spotting today. I expect it will turn into AF tomorrow. I am bummed...I just feel deflated. Was I really just imagining all those symptoms? Or maybe I had a little bean in there trying to implant but my crappy luteal phase washed it right out. Who knows. I think I might go ahead and make an appointment with my OBGYN and show him my charts and see if he thinks my luteal phase is a concern. This will make 5 months of trying while tracking ovulation and not conceiving (I am including the two months we tried before finding this website and swaying pink).

Yamanote and Anchor - I am rooting for you guys!! I really hope it was just too early to test.

Thorz, I have also heard that early cramps can be a sign of implantation on an earlier thread. Good luck to you!!

I would just LOVE to see a BFP in here soon. Good luck to ALL of you!! I will keep checking back to see if there is any news.

I think I am going to have a handful of my girl friends come over for a girls night tomorrow night (they don't know we are ttc) and then my DH has Thurs-Mon off work, so we are going to do a lot of house projects....This might be good for helping keep my mind off of this dumb 2ww. I love my DIY home projects, but a lot of the ones I have on my plate right now include wood stain, and I can't be handling oil based stains while I am possibly pregnant so I guess that will be my only positive thing that will come out of a BFN. It will give me a chance to do some furniture refinishing before we try again!!!

Oh and AF is due on our Anniversary, so I am so torn.....it can make for an extremely great anniversary gift for my husband (if I get a BFP a day or two before I can give him the positive test as an anniversary gift)....but if AF comes it can make for a depressing anniversary and AF is never welcome on our anniversary!!!! I'm starting to get bummed about the possibility of a BFN on our anniversary, we already had a BFN on Christmas...AF needs to stop being due on my important days lol!!!
