So glad and sad to be nearing another OTD. π€ͺπ
Thereβs something nice in this limbo land of βmaybe just maybeβ. Nothing worse that a Big Fβn Negative to smack ya back to the reality of the ivf journey eh. Much nicer to not know and dream for a bit.... even if it is for 10 days only.
Iβve never been pregnant and might never be but At least Iβll never look back and regret trying.
OTD is tomo and comparing my symptoms to the last time, the outcome will probably be the same. π
The wait is hard but the negative confirmations are harder.
Symptoms this cycle by the day:
Day 1,2not much tired
Day 3 cramps tired
Day 4 usual swollen π π tired
Day 5 same
Day 6 sore head morning and sore head night
Day 7 cramps early morning tired
Day 8 cramps tired
Day 9 cramps and Aunt Flo gut gurgles (think sheβs getting angry now and just wants to come)
Mostly feeling normal but like Aunt Flo is building if that makes sense. Sure, it was fun while it lasted.π
So to those in the 2ww I say:
enjoy it. Relax in the maybe. Time enough to feel the pain when the day of testing comes.
For those of you waiting to go again :
fill up those laughter tanks with living in the spaces before your next cycle. Go do fun things and drink coffee whilst you can .
To anyone giving up on the whole thing: take a break and do what your heart desires.
Love and hugs to all this day,
As we say here in Northern Ireland
βMay the sun shine warm upon your faceβ today.

Hey Rhinocat! I was literally just thinking about you and you popped up! Well done on the net testing, what a legend.....you know what Im like?! I really hope you are wrong about OTD, Im rooting for you lovely! Hoping you have the luck of the Irish!! Ha ha haxxx
Wishing you the best with OTD, truly hope itβs a BFP. Iβm afraid AF & early pregnancy symptoms are the same & impossible to tell apart. Itβs another cruel twist on this already difficult journey. Each BFP I have had I have been convinced AF was coming ( and I had cramps & backache everytime) I definitely think you are not out. xxx
Wishing you all the best luck for tomorrow. My only BFP, I was convinced it hadnβt worked but was proven wrong on OTD. Unfortunately it was a miscarriage but try and remember each round is completely different so you never know.
You havenβt mentioned anything about spotting and think like these that are more scary in out sick minds π so definitely you are not out. That is wonderful I would say!
Good luck, awaiting for good news tomorrow π€π€β€οΈπ
Iβm sending you the luck in the world for tomorrow, I would love to wake and see a bfp post from you π
All I will say is the only thing I had on my last tww was that Aunt Flo feeling and it definitely wasnβt her coming so donβt rule yourself out just yet! Who knows what the morning will bring. Big hugs and lots of love for your test xxx
Just wanted to wish you well and let you know Iβll be rooting for you tomorrow π I hope that you have some good news. Look after yourself and good luck!!!xxxxx
Thatβs a better place than feeling Aunt Flo is five minutes away π€£πππππ hugs and best wishes to ya! Today is going so slowly ππ
I am also 9dp5dt and your9 days sound almost exactly the same as mine, though I have had a very tiny bit of spotting. My OTD isnβt until Sunday though. Best of luck for tomorrow! X
Oh wow! Was yours frozen transfer? I was 12 days last time but 10 this time with fresh transfer. Iβve had zero spotting of any kind . Hope youβre resting and looking after yourself πππππππππ»
No fresh! I donβt know why itβs so long it was the same last time for my fresh transfer too. I spoke to them today about my cramps but they still said to wait until Sunday. Itβs so weird but Iβm going to stick with it anyway. I hope you are too. Xx
Wishing you the very best of luck for tomorrow RhinoCat. If it helps, with my one & only BFP from ivf I had zero symptoms, so lack of them doesnβt mean itβs bad...
will be thinking of you and keeping all the fingers crossed π€π»π€π»π€π»π€π» Xxx
Thank you for making me smile with your message. The whole process is crappy, but we have to stay positive and look on the bright side of things. I hope tomorrow you get your BFP and can take your first step on a different journey. xx
Lovely post as always. Got everything crossed for good news for you tomorrow π€π€. (From someone in the waiting group -will keep building the old laughter tank π whilst gulping the coffee βοΈ) π.Best of luck lovely xx
