The other TWW thread seems to be winding down so here's a new thread to keep us sane the next few weeks.
I'm 1DPO, cycle 5 (cycle 2 post miscarriage).
Who's with me! My goal this month? Not to test every day from 8 DPO on, like I did last month : )
I'm 11dpo with cramping, sore boobs and creamy CF. My FRER was negative yesterday and I took an internet cheapie this morning that looked negative. But, my temp went up again today and I am still very hopeful. I got a BFP with my son at 10dpo, but I know most don't show up positive until 12 dpo or so...
My chart: http://www.tcoyf.com/members/canadianmaple/pccharts/7.aspx
A good site about when to expect positive pregnancy tests I just stumbled upon... http://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=11
My TWW is winding down - AF is scheduled for Thursday, and I'm trying to wait until Friday to test. Not charting or temp taking, but yesterday I had (TMI) 2 tiny dots of red in my undies (sorry!). That has never happened before so I have no idea what's going on there.
Three more days to survive before I'm allowing myself to POAS. I have those nice digital ones, which are too expensive to waste! 
I don't temp (but probably will next cycle).
@ Maplebecky - all good signs! I looked at your chart (which looks like greek to me!) But man, you and your DH are definitely newlyweds with how much you DTD!!!
@ Goldi - good for you for holding out to test! I have some of the internet cheapie ones (which apparently are super sensitive) and then some digital ones too. I know that my willpower will break down around 10DPO and I'll probably use a cheapie then. My LP seems to be 12-13 days.
hahaha! How embarrassing! It's not normally like that, more because of TTC mode. He's 42 and anxious that it won't happen for him.
@ Maple - more power to you! we DTD every other day for the week leading up to O and also on the two days before O. we've been together 10 years.... let's just say that's a lot for us at this point. i'm exhausted!
I'm not sure my DPO right now. It's either 1, 0, or -1 : ) but I think I'll be able to figure it out by tomorrow.
My goal for the month...I think I'm going to try to pretend it's not a TWW at all. That may mean I'm a little less frequent on the boards, but I'll check in from time to time. At the very least. I'm going to try no symptom stalking! I was good for a few months and then crazy again last month.
I am 9 or 10 dpo. FF changed my O date for some reason.
Trying not to get too excited over every little symptom (even the ones I make up)
I have been spotting for at least 3 days. It's brown, and it's there but not AF spotting. I just dont know why I would spot at 7/8 dpo to 9/10 dpo. Other than that no other symptoms except nausea, which I am attributing to my less than stellar diet as of late and work stress.
I might test tomorow at 11 dpo, I dont know yet. I told myself I wouldn't test but I have been at home, so thats been a great distraction. I dont know how strong my willpower will be once I am home and a FRER test is calling my name.
@pantera - not to fuel the fire, but doesn't implantation bleeding occur (if it is to occur) around 7-10 DPO. good luck either way : )
@winniewolf: I think so, but Im really trying not to think about that.
I thought it would only happen for a day at most, this has been going on for 3 days.
I'm at 2 or 3 DPO and I'm going to try not to test until the 24th, which is 18DPO. Of course, that's assuming I get a good number on my progesterone blood draw Saturday AND I don't get my period by then. I'm probably overestimating my patience level, though...
have been a lurker for a while, but thought I'd join in. I think I'm 2 DPO, but have to admit I didn't do the best job at being observant this month. Not charting, just based on CM--Only 3rd month NTNT. We BD a couple times, so I'm not convinced this could be our month. But, no knowing for sure until AF appears/doesn't appear. Baby dust to all!
I'm on CD22, about 7DPO if I ovulated. I have PCOS and was on Metformin this cycle, but it made me so sick and landed me in the ER so I had to stop taking it RIGHT at my ovulation time. I'm hoping it was enough to make me ovulate! I also stopped temping at that time because I was so frustrated - so I'm really in the dark this month!
I've been having some weird cramps/sensations yesterday and today, and I spotted a tiny bit this morning. No clue why, but I'm not getting my hopes up!
Here's to the TWW ladies!
My period is due tomorrow. I've felt like my period was on its way, but I'm just not sure. I tested with the early detection strips from Amazon but I've only got negatives so far. I've had symptoms to make me think I might be pregnant (super sensitive to smells, a couple days of really bad nauseau right around when implantation would have occurred) but I was also really pissy yesterday and I've had some light cramping.
I had a blood donation appointment last night and I went ahead with it because I had a negative pregnancy test that morning. But my temperature was elevated during the screening (99.1) which was really strange for me. Google tells me that's a possible pregnancy side effect, so I'm totally not sure.
This is my first month charting and I am 4 DPO. I bought a bunch of internet sticks to cut down on the cost of addictive testing, but have a feeling it is only going to encourage me to do more frequent testing because I can justify it!
Hopefully an easy TWW for everyone!
@BrianneG: We sound like we're going through the same thing. AF is due tomorrow for me too and my tests have been negative since then. Good luck!
This is our sixth cycle TTC, and my fifth cycle charting. 6 DPO, and trying not to overanalyze any signs. Hoping I'm not just making things up in my head!
Hope the TWW isn't terrible for everyone - I'm just trying to make the next 11 days fly by (loooong cycles, ugh).
Good luck!
I think i'm 1 or 2 DPO. I had EWCM yesterday. This is our second cycle.
I'm hoping I can be less stressed out this cycle and just enjoy these milestones in my life such as TTC!
Lets see some graduates this month :)
12 dpo and another BFN. My temp is still up but I am starting to think that AF may come today. :(
10 or 11 dpo, FF keeps changing my O date. Still spotting, but now my temp is dropping.
I think I am out this month.
Well, it ain't over til AF arrives...stay strong in these last few days ladies!
1/2 dpo (EWCM over 2 days), trying to not focus on it too much (kind of failing!)
Super busy, so hoping to manage not to waste too many tests this month, and just hang on.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you all, especially panterapeach!
@ Rumple - I'm right with you at 2DPO. Had worst ovulation cramps in memory this time around. Also have CM (hard to say if EW), achy legs, a little crampy. Also very vivid dreams the past few nights.
My goal is to wait until 12 DPO to test...have a 12-13 day LP so really hoping I can do it. Ok, enough symptom obsessing for now since it's scientifically impossible to be pregnant yet!
2 days til I test (unless AF shows up tomorrow)! This morning I have weird stabby pains on the left side of where I'm guessing my uterus hangs out. Not sure what that's about - maybe AF making herself known in a somewhat painful manner?
Question, is EWCM an indication that Ovulation has occured or is occuring?
@nskillet: It is really an indication of rising levels of estrogen. Which typically happens a few days leading up to ovulation. However, you can also get EWCM during the second half of your cycle during a estrogen surge.
This is a cruel cruel joke if I'm not pregnant this month...
8DPO with spotting yesterday, gone today. Weird sensations/cramps, total fatigue, and random waves of something I can't quite put my finger on- a cross between nausea and dizziness but not quite either.
Please tell me I'm not just coming down with something!! :(
@Pantera thanks! I'm considering starting to temp as my wicked long cycle last month was just a case of WICKED late ovulation. I had EWCM on July 25 and 2 weeks later period started like clockwork on August 8th.
DH wants to try a few more times without any intervention like OPKs or Thermometers I was just doing some research to see if I agree lol!
@MrsMaine: Ooohh sounds promising! There's no way I could hold off testing! Keep us updated :)
@winniewolf: Thanks! I'm trying to wait it out until 12DPO buuuut I have a feeling I'll only make it til about 10DPO and then maybe test every day thereafter!
I'm losing hope. 12dpo and still BFN. I have a longer LP than usual, but with all of these negative tests, I figure AF will come now.
@MapleBecky: There's always hope until AF rears her ugly head! Don't give up yet!
I'm just starting the TWW... I think today is 1 DPO, but I'm not really sure since I had some more EWCM today. I'm not charting this cycle. I decided to take a break because I was driving myself cray-cray overanalyzing my chart. Just trying for a more relaxed approach this cycle!
I had an early MC a few months ago, so my cycles have been a little off. I'm planning on testing once AF is a day late.... if AF is a day late! That would be approx 15 DPO. Hopefully, I can make it til then (or at least til 12 DPO!). I just hate wasting tests.
BTW, I'm a regular poster incognito. Not ready to share all of this with people who know me IRL on here! Nobody really knows we're trying.
I don't have OPKs but I've been temping and today might be ovulation day, so I'm joining you girls now or soon.
This month I've read some articles about yoga and fertility, and I take yoga twice a week and have been trying to focus on some of the ideas....visualization of orange/pink energy filling my pelvic area, and visualizing a flower growing starting right from the seed. My DH asked if we're going to have a hippie baby. :)
Since I'm not sure if it's O day yet, I'll be legs-in-air pose twice a day until the temp rises. :)
@MrsMaine: Thank you. I know it's true and she still isn't here, I shouldn't count myself out yet. I figure I would have gotten a positive at this point.
Today is AF-watch, day 1. Usually she arrives in the morning, but still no sign.
In other news, last night I had a moment of weakness and almost POAS - good thing I was feeling slightly dehydrated and didn't have to actually pee!
13 dpo, another BFN and no sign of AF. So frustrating! We're going away camping this weekend in the trailer and I am not looking forward to being disappointed and having to deal with AF. It's the longest LP I have ever had, so I have no idea what to think.
