2ww is agonising!

[smithy1986]

Hi Everyone! So I have taken some time away from the forum over the past few days, I just need to focus on keeping busy but its proving increasingly difficult! I have 6 days left til test day (on Tuesday), please ladies - help me find the willpower to be patient!

[Tugsgirl]

You can do this 💪🏻 Absolutely you can. I’ve done three twws so I know the struggle but don’t test early. It doesn’t get any easier does it? Get yourself as busy as you can (without doing anything too strenuous) and good luck for otd xx

[smithy1986 in reply to Tugsgirl]

I know it feels worse than the worst time because if its a negative I just want to get it over and done with! do you know what I mean? thank you for your message, I don't know why I even thought coming off this forum would ever help me when you girls are just the best people to talk to! xx

[Tugsgirl in reply to smithy1986]

I do know what you mean. Don’t get me wrong I’m always tempted to test early but I keep telling myself no. They give us an otd for a reason. It’s been enough to get me through to the three otds so far and hoping that’s enough for my fourth xx

[smithy1986 in reply to Tugsgirl]

are you on route with your fourth? I really hope it works for you, I cant imagine how much you've had to get through to get to this point. youre a very strong woman xxx

Transfer is Friday if all goes well with the thaw 🤞 Thank you xx

Hi, I’m only 3 days into my 2WW and it’s such a hard time. It’s my first cycle so I’m new to this. Keeping busy seems the only way but the thoughts never leave. I keep googling to find out what I might feel if it’s working! Wish there was a way to know! I don’t plan I test early either. Good luck. Hope time flys by for you. X

[smithy1986 in reply to gemmy999]

aww I know its such a hard time! I guess if you test too early you risk seeing a negative result and then you'll be disheartened for your official test day. Its so hard waiting though, youre absolutely right - the thoughts never leave do they! xx

[gemmy999 in reply to smithy1986]

Hope it goes well for you. Do you have any pains/cramps? Xx

[smithy1986 in reply to gemmy999]

No cramps or pains, This is an FET so no need for another egg collection. If you have had your eggs collected within the last 2 weeks you may be experiencing discomfort still so if you have cramps do not worry at all, its completely normal. After an FET I don't feel any different, just very nervous! xxx

[gemmy999 in reply to smithy1986]

Oh ok. Thank you for that. Makes sense. Take care xx

I hear you! I have 2 sleeps left of the tww and it’s been more of a roller coaster than I ever imagined! Started bleeding lightly at 9dp5dt and thought I was out. It’s started failing off now but I have no idea what it means. Decided to wait until test date so I know for sure. I didn’t want to get a negative knowing it could turn positive later on the week. If I’m out I just want to know I’m out. And if it’s positive I want to be able to celebrate! Best of luck lovely I know how hard this is. Thinking of you xx

[smithy1986 in reply to Elizabeth86]

I completely relate to you, just remember that spotting is completely normal so don't let it rest on your mind too much (I know that's easier said than done). I hope so much for you that you get a BFP. Good luck babe xxx

[Elizabeth86]

Thanks so much lovely. Keep us updated and keep busy. I tried a few fertility visualisations and hypnosis on YouTube and Spotify to relax during my tww - worth a try if you need to chill out! Xxx

[smithy1986 in reply to Elizabeth86]

wow that's a good idea! Ill take a look at that later thank you! xxx

[Dunla]

You’re doing really well, hang in there and best of luck for a positive outcome xx

[smithy1986 in reply to Dunla]
