@lilyofthewest: I'm so sorry you're in limbo. This is so hard
But I'm hopeful that you will be able to see something next week. I couldn't see anything until I was solidly into the 6th week with my daughter. I had to get repeat ultrasounds because of bleeding and a subchorionic hemorrhage. Now she's 2

So many ladies in limbo...it's so hard not having answers! Thinking of you all
-
@Mrs. Oreo: LOL! Success! So, I wont try to get my hopes up, since we only got O day.
-
@dc yoga bee: Woohoo!
-
I need to stop Googling. A lot of things I've read says that a 27mm follicle can be too big to contain a viable egg.
This is probably TMI but when we were BDing last night I could feel how swollen my ovary is. It was almost painful. I'm hoping that means I can feel ovulation.I'm trying to go into this TWW with low expectations though.
-
@periwinklebee: Ugh, that is really frustrating, and I think it's not at all unusual to feel irritated by the circumstances. You can only do what you can do though. That's great that your DH is making an effort to come back. I'm sure it will work out fine.
-
@Marfi: Good luck!
-
@mrskansas: I usually go in w/ low expectations - mostly as a self-preservation method - then by the end of the TWW I'm just as hopeful as ever, and devastated when AF comes. Hoping this is your month though!!
-
@dominobee: Yeah I say I'm going to be calm, relaxed and it won't be a big deal if it doesn't work out... but yeah right, lol.
-
@dc yoga bee: whoooooo!!!
-
@mrskansas: I think we've all tried to tell ourselves that! It probably helps a little bit, but we know the reality of it. Luckily, we have each other to understand what it's all about.
-
If I don't get AF by Monday (due tomorrow) I'll test then. I am kind of scared of POAS because the disappointment can be too much for me. So, I'll wait it out! Anyone else feel that way?
-
Big Brother kind of sucks, lots of ads popping up for double strollers and maternity clothes. Grrrr...
-
@periwinklebee: I'm so glad your husband realizes that being home on time is so important to you (and him really)! Nothing more isolating than not being on the same page with your partner
@dominobee: @mrskansas: @Mrs. Oreo: I feel like we have to go into the TWW with a little higher level of "crazy" than most people. I tyhink we've come to terms that we're not "oopsie" people lol I envy their naivety to the world of TTC.
-
And let the symptom spotting begin...
I looked back at my Ovia app from the cycle we conceived baby #2 and I had weird thick stretchy cm at 2 dpo that cycle and today. It's too early for implantation to have even happened, so there's no way to even have any symptoms yet, right?! It's going to be a long tww.
-
@jodyblair: haha if it's 2DPO maybe it is leftover semen or CM? Not to be gross lol But I would say symptom spotting is fair game at 7 DPO!
-
@jodyblair: I always have similar CM at 2 DPO. Something to do with the drop in estrogen and rise in progesterone!
-
@mrskansas: @Mrs.Panda: Both logical explanations. But there is no logic in the TWW
-
@jodyblair: Nope, none. My TWW starts tomorrow and it's going to be a loooong one.
-
@jodyblair: Oh yeah definitely lol
-
I know this is ridiculous but part of me is disappointed I had to trigger because now I can't obsessively start testing at 7 DPO.
-
@mrskansas: Well I mean, I would feel the same way so I guess I'm lame too
-
Hi ladies! I realize I kind of barged in above without joining in on the conversations. Could have something to do with having a 2-year-old and my own business. HA. Anyway, just wanted to chime in and I'm wondering if anyone else is still waiting to test this month.
-
@mrskansas: Do you plan to test out the trigger or just wait to test?
-
@CatchAFallingStar: Hey there! I only managed to BD once on o day, so I'll still test, but probably not before AF is due!
-
@dc yoga bee: when is AF due for you?
-
@CatchAFallingStar: the 30th or the 1st! I ovulate late, and have a short luteal phase.
-
@mrskansas: Lol, orrr you could still just start testing at 7dpo anyways!
-
@jodyblair: I don't know... I'm sure my mind will change on this, haha. I'd kind of like to wait until 15 DPO (if I make it that far) and then test with my husband. I'd like it to be a nice clear line and not have to stare at a shadow for days.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I'm still waiting to test! I'm only 2 dpo today, so will probably test 4/29 at 10 dpo.
@mrskansas: 15 dpo?! That's some serious restraint.
-
@jodyblair: well this is coming from me when I haven't even ovulated yet... so ask me again in a week
-
@dc yoga bee: that's the most likely scenario lol
-
@CatchAFallingStar: 6DPO over here. Will probably wait to test until Tues/Weds. I'm not due for AF until 5/1 but I ovulated early this month so I don't know what's going to happen!
-
@dc yoga bee: I'll be 15 DPO if I test Monday!
-
@CatchAFallingStar: still waiting here too! I didn't monitor O but I'm on CD27, so if I don't get AF by Thurs or Fri (CD 33/34) I'll probably rest then. I suck at limbo so I'm really trying to avoid as much of it as I can and maintain low expectations.
-
This is just a PSA to not buy Walgreens brand OPKs!
-
@mrskansas: whoa! Marked difference (literally) is walgreens up top?
-
@mrskansas: wow!! That's crazy.
-
@dc yoga bee: yep Walgreens is the top one!
-
@mrskansas: can you get your money back? After all that stress I would want my money back even just 5-10 bucks.
But I'm hopeful that you will be able to see something next week. I couldn't see anything until I was solidly into the 6th week with my daughter. I had to get repeat ultrasounds because of bleeding and a subchorionic hemorrhage. Now she's 2
