I guess I kind of forgot how tough the tww was just for the fact you’re so in limbo, my symptom spotting has well and truly set and I can’t help but compare it to how I felt last year when I was pregnant.
Unfortunately this year there isn’t as many symptoms, I know it’s early but by this time last cycle I was already quite nauseous and for me that was such a positive sign.
I think I’m annoying my husband because I keep asking him how we’re going to cope if this doesn’t work, I can’t help but feel negative 😢
Please tell me I’m not going totally insane 🙈

Hey, just wanted to send you some love 💕 the 2WW can be torturous at times because we can’t help but over analyse everything we feel.
I’ve never had a BFP so not sure what they feel like, but I’m sure all would be different so try not to stress just because you don’t feel the same as last time.
Keeping my fingers crossed for your BFP 🤞🏼 hope the wait goes quickly for you xxxxx
Try not to symptom spot (easier said than done) I had two BFP’s and both had different symptoms. The first one which ended in a missed miscarriage had more symptoms than the second. Good luck xx
Thank you, I know I shouldn’t as this is a natural FET and my others weren’t. My worry is that my boobs don’t hurt at all and that was always one symptom I really remember being strong before xx
Boobs aren’t usually sore till 6 weeks (from what I’ve read), so definitely wouldn’t worry about not having this symptom 👍 (appreciate easier said than done though!). I’ve just come out of 2ww unsuccessfully so really appreciate how hard it can be. Try to take each day at a time, spoil yourself where you can and best of luck xxxx
I don't know if you remember but we were in the tww together last year and got our positive results together... and the latee anywya I'm just about to start my next cycle too.
It's so easy for us all to give advice but the tww is the longest two weeks ever! I really hope it just goes quickly for you. I also had symptoms really early on last year and would be naturally comparing but try not to as I have heard every pregnancy even for each woman is different so try to keep positive as it is still quite early.
Wishing you all the best, I really do have my fingers crossed for you.
Hey, lovely to hear from you! I know it’s so tough to compare although I know I shouldn’t as this is a natural FET which I’ve never had before, I guess I’m worrying as my boobs aren’t sore and I always remember that as being a strong symptom before.
Wishing you so much luck for your next cycle, hopefully it’s time for us both to get our rainbows xx
I’m right there with you. Don’t know how to get myself out of bed this morning! I have never wished away the days like this. Anyway, just here to say you are not insane or at least, we both are together. Xx
August 30 for beta but my clinic is in London and I am in Bath so not sure if I want to go all that way for a BFN so will just do a home test that day and to make sure two days after so 11dp5dt and 13dp5dt. What about you? Are you usually an early tester? xx
Don’t blame you for wanting to do a home test before. Same as my OTD, I’ve never been an early tester as I don’t want to give myself false hope or false disappointment xx
It’s so difficult not to look for symptoms constantly in the 2WW and it slowly drives you mad! I’ve been pregnant 6 times now and had different symptoms each time or next to none others. Sending you lots of luck and hoping the rest of your wait flies 💕🤞 Xx
It’s so hard, but try not to compare as every pregnancy is different anyway. My sister-in-law had severe hyperemesis gravidarum with her first, & was admitted twice due to dehydration, yet on her second she wasn’t sick at all!
Try not to think of the worst, & just concentrate on the fact that in this moment in time, you are technically pregnant! 🤞🏼🍀🤞🏼
You’re no more insane than the rest of us during the period of hell which is aka the tww. Ladies say that no two cycles are the same, that no two twws are the same.. frustratingly only time will tell. Hang in there and good luck xx
Of course your not insane. Naturally your going to compare with your last bfp it's human instinct despite what we know, we'll always compare our feelings and symptoms to ones we've felt before. Thinking of you and hoping this is your time my love really do you deserve this so much 😘💝💕
Thank you, I think because this is the first natural cycle I’ve done I need to remind myself symptoms might be different cause of no meds well hopefully 🤞🏻 how are you doing? Xx
The 2ww is a nightmare! You have been through so much! I honestly had high hopes for one of my cycles as I thought that I had got symptoms but nope a BFN it was. The last 2ww I had I had no symptoms and was trying to console myself that I could at least have a glass of prosecco or few but to my complete surprise that was my BFP and I am still in complete shock and disbelief but 23weeks.
You can do this!!! Sending so much luck and baby dust for someone who truly deserves their dream and miracle baby. Big hugs xxx
Thanks hun all is well and good here. It really isn't hun!!! It's such a tough couple of weeks. I've got everything crossed for you and you know where I am. Sending you so much luck and baby dust xx
Aww man it's so hard not to symptom spot! Now words of wisdom apart from hang on in there and sending positive thoughts your way...with hugs of course!😘xx
My friend had a successful IVF when she knew a few days after EC that it worked. When she tried for a second baby, the cycle that worked was the one where she had no symptoms at all and was convinced it didn’t work. So you just don’t know. Everything is still possible. Good luck x
I think what we’ve been through along the way makes it increasingly difficult to remain positive at times. Sending you a massive hug. Maybe you could do something nice today to try to lift your spirits or at least distract yourself for a few hours 😘 xx
