June 2018 TTC & 2ww thread

[Eighme]

The 2ww wait is the literal worst. I'm feeling so confident about our attempt and now I'm just sitting here analyzing every twitch and twinge. I've been so busy I haven't had much time to sit still. So, that's helped, but when I stop and think about it it makes me so anxious!

I'm losing my mind, guys!!!
To all of you in the 2WW, trust me, you guys are in a good place! The hassle of tracking ovulation is done :-) You now have a good chance and are on your way to pregnancy, if you aren't already pregnant. To someone still awaiting ovulation, I'd rather be you!
So, I went with my gut ( and ovu symptoms and EWCM) and BDed yesterday night. My tests from yesterday eve and night were looking close to positive (no surge detected in CB though). I went to bed very happy and pretty positive that I'd see a 'positive' in the morning. BUT it's like a bad dream. My tests are all clear negative, lines are fainter than yesterday. I tested in the afternoon today, to better my chances. Nada, nothing! It's CD 24 and I can't believe I'd be ovulating this late, if I do, that is!

So I went from 'Yay I'm going to make a 2-O,cutoff', to 's***, did I botch my one attempt'. If I get a +ve tonight, I'd still be in 2-O or 3-O. Not a great chance, but still a decent one! If I don't get +ve tonight, I really don't know what the plan is anymore! I'm just so frustrated. I've taken opk tests since CD 11, originally anticipating a CD 17 ovulation. Attached are Temps from this morning.

Feeling miserable don't really feel like doing anything except peeing on sticks and willing them to change their results!

HDP I'm sorry this is happening [emoji17] why not switch to e4d (96 hour version) and ditch the opks? Either that or test just once a day between 1-3pm until you see a near pos, then use the cb that evening? Really hoping your body chills out and does its thing...

Deep breath HDP. This whole section that ill write was probably told to me by pbn3 & abc and a few others. You're right, TWW is a little easier because its fairly black and white, test or don't test.
So at this point I think you need to be happy with this attempt and then in 72-96 hrs have another and then in 72-96 hrs have another. Enjoy having some sex. From how i understand atomics plan (correct if I'm wrong) of one attempt is one attempt/limited attempts in fertile period, not one attempt in the month.
This is very frustrating to not know if you're surging multiple times this month...having an anovulatory cycle... going to officially O later... who knows. We won't know until you end up pregnant or AF comes.
Being obsessive and stressing sways blue, so slow it down. Better said than done, but I'm trying to help. Take care. Keep posting here.

HDP the panic & doubt in opk testing really does suck. I feel like ovulation will turn up, try to keep the faith. Believe me I can’t feel for you enough, this place you’re in is the hardest in your journey right now I agree but hopefully soon you’ll get to move on. Try to keep busy & enjoy some wine if you’re including it [emoji6]

HDP that sounds so stressful! I hope you get some clarity soon.

Yeah- staying busy helps. Can you get lost in a tv series or book? Waiting is rough.

Yes, just writing about. So woke up after a nightmare and was really nauseous. And then it died down but was there until I ate lunch. Now several hours later, I am now having an upset stomach. That's not usually a problem since I started the skipping breakfast thing six months ago. But nonetheless, stark white wondfo. Not even a shading that I could pretend to be seeing something. Couldn't bring myself to open a FRER but probably will tomorrow. I just feel off. I hate symptom spotting. I don't even want to tell DH and even slightly get his hopes up.

HDP it sounds super frustrating! I feel you [emoji30] but like others have said , maybe it’s time to change tactics. Make it fun, go e4d & try and distract yourself. I’ve decided I’m never doing OPks again, they just increase my obsession with TTC and swaying and then I lose sight of the whole thing.


How is everyone else going? Anyone ready to test? I’m 11dpo, and pretty sure AF is coming on Sunday, temp is dropping and I’m super irritated lol
