January 2WW!

[black&gold]

Still thinking of all you ladies in the 2WW! I'm on CD9 waiting for our next attempt and am already dreading the 2WW! It feels like 2 years! It's so crazy how everyone talks about all these symptoms and then getting BFN's. I could have sworn I was pregnant on last attempt. Cramping non-stop, backache, boobs tingling, peeing etc. but I ended up getting AF.. I can't believe how much your body tricks you into feeling certain things. It's not over till it's over though, that's for sure and I have hope for you guys - things are sounding promising! I keep popping in to see if there's any news yet!

Fingers crossed for you ladies!!! xx

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.

So you are 9 dpo? I think that is what I read on your chart. It is still too early to count yourself out, but I don't know what to make of all the spotting either. The only thing I can relate to is with my first DS I spotted a lot in the first 6 to 7 weeks and my doc just kept an eye on things but said that can happen. I didn't spot until after my BFP though so it is so hard to know what you are going through. I really do hope it is early pregnancy spotting!

I am 10DPO today. I have been spotting starting on day 8 or 9DPO the past few months, which then turns into AF....so most likely that is what is happening again this month. Started spotting yesterday at 9DPO.

Hi ladies. I'm with Thorz, really, really hoping for some BFPs to get the ball rolling this month and cheer us all up! I'm determined to hang out until 12 DPO before I POAS. Fingers crossed for everyone xx

Hello everyone! I'm in the 2ww now. Just 2 dpo. I read through all of your posts. I'm kind of disappointed not to see anyone with a BFP!

I agree with those not wanting a Nov/Dec baby, so this 2ww seems a little more nerve wracking. We are going to take a 'break' from ttc for at least 2 months if not three, if not indefinitely!! As I will be 40 this year as well. If this attempt is successful, I'd only be one month over 40. And I've always thought 40 was my limit. My other kiddos are just getting older and life is getting so much easier in other ways, ya know?

Welcome and good luck Violet!!

I'm getting so confused! I went ahead and tested this AM...BFN. But NO sign of AF at all. I had cramps (exactly like my period was on its way) late Sunday/early Monday AM and then they went away. This morning I had brown cm (not at all like the spotting I normally see prior to AF). If I didn't know better I'd say it looked like implantation bleeding. I SO regret not temping now. I saw my LH surge on 1/1 and just figured I O'd sometime later that day or on 1/2 based on a few sharp pains I felt. I wonder if I had trouble Oing with the first surge and went on to surge again and O'd later in the week?? There are so many "what if" scenarios. At this point I just want to get AF so I can start fresh!

Also, does anyone know if temp charts stay approximately the same for an individual over time? I was thinking maybe I'd take my temp in the morning since I have months worth of charts I logged a few years ago that I could compare it to. My high temps were always really high in comparison to my base line, but I don't know if that kind of thing changes over time or not.
