Really stressing in 2ww

[Bec-A]

I'm on day 5 now and I'm finding the 2ww so hard I had a nightmare last night that I'd lost it 😞 I want this so much I don't know what to do with myself I'm analysing every twinge, everything I'm doing should I go for a walk or is that too exerting? That sort of thing. I'm finding this so hard.

Bless you. It's the hardest 2 weeks to go through. I spent my evenings trying to occupy myself so me and hubby would go for dinner or sit and play cards or on the wii to distract me from google. Walking is good for you (although I was too lazy to bother)

Wishing you a speedy 2ww and fingers crossed you get your positive xx

Hi Bec-A, I’m also in the 2ww and finding it very difficult to focus on anything else at the moment. I’m trying to distract myself with films and a new sewing project. I don’t think anything takes your mind off it fully. We just have to hope the time goes quickly and try to stay positive. Good luck x

I feel your pain! I am on day 3 and driving myself mad with worrying about every little twinge. I was in tears this morning thinking I was having period cramps...

The pessaries are getting tedious too and the slight discharge from them is making me sooo paranoid that I’m going to see blood when I go to the loo (which is about every 5 minutes with all the water I’m drinking!)

I am at work, walking the dog etc as normal (just had a day off for the transfer and put my feet up afterwards)

Oh hun the tww is not fun. It felt like it went on for ages for me. Going for a nice walk is fine, I found it helped clear my minda little. Try to distract yourself as much as possible, start a new book, watch a new box set etc. I hope that you get your BFP. xxx

It is a very stressful time as you analyse every single twinge and its easier said than done to ignore them. We got told walking is good to get the blood flow going (not a hike or anything though), and I felt the fresh air helped clear the head too. Boxsets are also good if you can get into one. Best of luck!xx

My thoughts are with you...only on day 2 myself! 😣 I know what you mean about symptom checking....

Im trying to keep busy, went for a walk yesterday and going to stay with some friends this weekend so hoping that will take my mind off things. I’m back to work on Monday.

Sending you lots of positive vibes xx

Hey, just hold on a bit dear one! I know the 2ww is very hard to keep your mind calm and not go and check on an HPT but it's better you wait. Do anything that keeps you happy, that's important. Try watch sitcoms, movies, have a lot of ice-cream - keep your mind occupied and try to think away from the pregnancy. Stay optimistic everything will be alright. Sending baby dust!
