Calling all Two Week Waiters

[katyk]

Out of interest if you don't mind saying, how much BD-ing did you all do? Surprising how much of a challenge it is to be up for it on the right day I find!

But this month we BD'd about 3 times around the right time, so that's not too bad.

Last month I ov'ed on day 16.

this month we bd'ed on day 12, 15, and 17. some of them were probably a bit late, but you never know! OH had a cold which didn't help.

Redshoes I can understand your superstition, I think it's easy to have while TTC'ing and we all do a bit

 

[Redshoes]

I just refuse to believe anything but that I am now pregnant katyk, but certainly didn't plan the spooky coincidences that are unravelling as with respect of TTC Isaac.

We BD'd every other day this month, as believe the idea that sperm becomes a bit weaker/less/slower if you BD every day, BD'd on day I believe I OV and also day after too, just for good measure Sorry I don't do the abbreviations and days of cycle etc but I'm still new to it all.

Very best wishes katyk, I hope those little swimmers found the egg for you this cycle!!

We BD a few days b4 I thought I was due to ovulate and twice a day on the 2 days b4 ovulation. (I was going for quantity not quality!!)

But I've had a bad back so have been on strong painkillers and think that may have effected my cycle. Til yesterday my cervix was medium and kinda closed. But today it seems to be off on it's travels!! sorry if TMI Not sure what to do. DH has terrible cold and my back is still v painful. Might give it a miss this month.

If anyone has time can they look at my chart and see if they can figure out what on earth is going on? Am I OV late?

 

[sarah12]

hi, we're more of a twice a week couple!! so we BD a few days before then on the day which i think I OV(day 14) - I'm not charting or anything do i'm hoping it was the right day!! but you never know this could be the month as we have always BD a few days before and not on day 14 previous months!!

 

[katyk]

I am about a once a week girl most of the time sarah12 but put my back into it, -and it was fun once I'd started

 

[trigger]

Hi,
I'm back in the 2ww and unfortunately haven't been able to predict exact ovulation date as either my tests didn't work or I missed the test date.
I have however been on my hols so have been bd'ing more than I usually would be (with you Katy on the once a week ). I am on day 19 now, last month I ov'd on day 17 but previously it has been more day 14-16 so who knows this month. Guess will only see when (if ) AF shows her head..

so thats that - lets all wait and see, Good luck and humunguss baby dust girlies.

 

[Redshoes]

Hello trigger sounds like a great holiday, hoping you brought back an extra special souvenir too

And to you Red shoes (loving those by the way!!), it would be so bizarre if you did get your BFP same as with your little boy, fab though!!

 

[Huddsgirl]

Fingers Crossed Huddsgirl
Good Luck Claire & Katy too

 

[katyk]

trixipaws- haven't you done all this- were you lucky and did it all without trying

A 2 week waiter is someone who is waiting from mid-cycle (around day 14 after start of period) until day when the blob is due, or 4 days before with a posh test, when we can do a preg test and see if it's worked

dpo is how many days post ovulation (which we mainly test with the Ovulation Predictor Kits- OPKs - you can buy from shops) we are.

It is quite an annoying time as it has either worked this month or it hasn't, you can't do anything about it for this fortnight, cos it's after the egg has been. And we don't know whether it's worked or not until we test or Aunt Flo comes.

Hope you know what we're on about now

 

[katyk]

good luck claire

 

[babydust]

I hate this 2 week wait, i cant seem to think of anything else at the moment, its driving me crazy, how is everyone else doing?

 

[katyk]

ok, don't seem to be obsessed for the moment, maybe cos this weeks' quite busy with lots happening, almost a hectic social whirl lol!

Maybe will possess me in a couple of days.

 

[Redshoes]

Claire I hate it too
Been having serious cramping going on but I'm just ignoring it and putting it down to hunger, wind, anything but to do with TTC, although I'm so uncomfortable at night now and breast feeding my son's real painful too, so will just be happy when October arrives, got annoying financial issues too so just generally feeling sorry for myself today
