2ww buddy?

[H0pe2]

Currently on my 2ww. Longest 2 week ever only just starting! Anyone else about the same time? Xx

[Stephj18]

I am too! ☹️ 5 days in and I’m cramping 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m trying not to think negative but it’s hard not to right xx

[H0pe2 in reply to Stephj18]

Hey im like 2 days in 🤣 keep having cramps, but think thats related to the acupuncture. Still trying naturally as I haven’t had all fertility tests yet 🙄xx

[Stephj18]

Ah I see! Xx

[MissSaoPaulo in reply to Stephj18]

cramping is not necessarily a bad sign, especially as 5 days is quite early and before your AF would be due, I guess? I had mild cramping all through the 2ww from about day 3 and for a while after too. Best of luck to both of you!! (it's easy to forget sometimes that people DO have babies the original way, isn't it - I hear 2ww and just assume it's after treatment!!)

[Stephj18 in reply to MissSaoPaulo]

Hey! I think my af is due now 😟 I’m just worried because I didn’t get this far last time.

Yeah I agree you do Think it’s the same tww.

Good luck with your pregnancy ❤️ xxx

[MissSaoPaulo in reply to Stephj18]

Hang on in there, because the sensations are so similar it really could go either way. And even if you bleed and think it's deffo AF, keep taking any medication you've been prescribed until your clinic tells you otherwise. This waiting is so hard and it really messes with your head. I was convinced mine had failed and was ready to pour myself a big glass of whisky after we opened the results of the blood test - but this negativity you're feeling isn't a gut feeling you should rely on, it's just a way of protecting yourself against bad news and it definitely doesn't mean anything. So, again, hang on in there xxx

[Stephj18 in reply to MissSaoPaulo]

Thanks so much. Your kind words are really helping me knock out the worrying ❤️ xxx

Having my IUI insemination this morning. OTD is booked for the 4th of feb. wishing you the best of luck xx

[leo1980 in reply to Ajplus1]

[Ajplus1 in reply to leo1980]

Good luck x

[Yogagirl37]

Me too! Had embryo transfer on weds! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[leo1980 in reply to Yogagirl37]

Mine was on Monday. I have no symptoms quite worried

[sarahharas]

After I got my period just after Christmas I am currently on absolutely no medication at the Moment. I am away on holiday coming back to the clinic on Monday. I am a bit nervous to see if something happened, although I dont think so. I have not naturally ovulated in 2 years.

Anyway, I know how you feel. Just distract yourself and do something nice And the time will fly xx

[LKT1]

It’s amazing how long the 2ww can seem! It has been an emotional rollercoaster with a few ups and a few downs. My test day is tomorrow so I’m definitely getting bit nervous now but I’m nearly through it🙂. Try not to worry too much. Keep distracting yourself and taking it easy xx

[leo1980]

Me too. Day 5 past transfer day. How are you feeling??

[Mycatsaremykids]

I’m on 2ww from my second cycle of Clomid. Unfortunately my hubby was away with work for two nights near ovulation so I’m not holding out too much hope!

I keep myself sane in week one by thinking it takes over a week between ovulation and implantation so I shouldn’t be expecting any symptoms either way.

Week two I find much harder and always end up peeing on a stick early. This month I’m going to wait for my period to come.

Good luck to all you 2ww ladies. xxx

[Heuchera]

Hi I'm early days into the 2ww. 2dp3dt. I have loads of twinges, even kept me awake last night. I imagine it's the after effects of EC and ET, coupled with meds side effects. I am going to try out a few things this time to try to keep sane (second ivf cycle for me), daily mindfulness practice, journalling, and walking. Sending hugs to you and all going through the 2ww. This forum definitely helps this wait to feel less lonely xxx

[Clairebear793]

My wife had IUI on Wednesday, had really bad cramping yesterday just so hard not to think negatively (we miscarried last time). Fingers crossed for everyone xx

[katie220916]

I’m also on the 2ww hope it’s ok to join in?

I’m 5DPO.

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

Hi, welcome 🙂 I’m 6DPO.long wait 🤯

[katie220916 in reply to H0pe2]

I know tell me about it! I’m starting a new job next month so I won’t be surprised if it happens soon lol.

Are you feeling anything at all?

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

I had a bit of pain the day after ovulation, which happened to also be the day after i had some fertility acupuncture. No idea what it was!

I’ve had a few twinges what have made me think it could be implantation but i think its too early, so im probably just hoping it is more than anything else.

What about you? Xx

[katie220916]

Yeah it’s hard to not overthink it isn’t it. The last couple of nights I’ve had really bad gas and trapped gas whilst trying to sleep 🙈 again though it’s probably too early to be anything.

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

Yeah i feel like doing a test, but i know it will be negative 😕 are you trying naturally? X

[katie220916]

Try and wait another week and then it should be accurate. I'm waiting until the 1st to test (if I can wait that long) haha. Yes, been trying for 9 months now x

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

Im due my period on the 31st, so I’ll probably know by then 🙄 me too, been ttc for over 12 months now, ive had a couple of tests, but none of the major ones xx

[katie220916]

Oh my gosh, we have to both check back in with each other on the 31st/1st to see! It's so frustrating isn't it? Yeah we have to wait until we reach the 12 month mark too for any tests. Is this your first month trying accupuncture? I've heard good things x

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

Definitely! Im not sure i can wait that long, i have never done a test early before but something is telling me to do one. I’ve only had a blood test for ovulation and an internal scan, both were ok.

Yeah that was my first time with a fertility specialist one. So im going again next month. Ive also heard good things xx

[katie220916 in reply to H0pe2]

Sorry, I just realised I've been adding loads of comments instead of replying to each comment lol.

That's good that the tests were OK, fingers crossed it will happen naturally and very soon! x

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

I have no idea what im doing on here anyway 🤣

Hopefully it will happen for both of us! Id be happy anytime this year tbh xx

[katie220916 in reply to H0pe2]

Me too! I'll check back in with you at the end of the month x

[H0pe2 in reply to katie220916]

Good luck! Xx

[HollyT7]

I will be starting the great depression on Thursday.... Good luck!! Xx

[H0pe2 in reply to HollyT7]

[HollyT7]

Thank you! I hope the same for you. We can get through this!!!!!! Xxx,l

[H0pe2]
