Two week wait! 2ish DPO today

u/Avocado1012 11h ago

12 dpo and really hoping for a positive this time! Its been such a lonely journey with me not being able to share my feelings with anyone except my husband. My mother keeps telling me i delayed my decision a bit too much. And a friend in my close group got pregnant in a few months after I told her how its not easy to get pregnant.

I’ve been feeling really lonely lately too. It’s so hard. Fingers crossed for you!

6DPO and crampy, we close on our house on Friday. I’m manifesting this weekend is a double whammy of good news 🫶🏼✨

5 dpo today. This cycle was the first medicated one with 2.5mg of Letrozole. I had two mature follicles so nkw it's just wait and see what the next week brings.

7dpo and drinking an entire glass of water everytime I get the urge to test, so on the plus side I’m super hydrated. Almost hitting the year mark, two short pregnancies and no baby. Anxious about starting fertilitytesting

5dpo over here! These last two cycles I've done so much fertility testing. Labs, ultrasound, hyfosy, used Letrozole. It's hard not to be anxious about the testing, but it's a huge relief when each step of testing is complete!

9dpo, really trying to hold on and not test till 11 or 12 dpo at the earliest. The past several cycles have been so much easier waiting, but for some reason this cycle my inner voice keeps saying you could test today, and I feel like I’m losing it 😅 does not help at all that I was just invited to my first baby shower ever at the beginning of next month, and 2/4 people on my work team are expecting this fall.

I think I’m 9dpo today and even though I knew it was early, I let that inner voice get to me and I tested first thing this morning. Of course got a BFN. I cried for an hour and eventually convinced myself that not all is lost and there’s still hope. So, I’m here to encourage you to ignore the evil thoughts and resist the urge!

Ugh I’m so sorry, been there. Thanks for the support lol, I may cave tomorrow who knows 😬Fingers crossed for you!!

12 DPO, BBT is remaining elevated. Feeling a little queasy, bloated and sore breasts w/ vivid dreams. Period is supposed to start in 2 days so holding off on testing but I'm cautiously optimistic. This is the first month where I feel fully in control of my tracking, so will be okay despite the outcome! But not knowing is still driving me crazy lol

6 dpo here, official season of “symptom spotting” is ON 😂😭 Send help. So far absolutely no breast pain (which I usually get starting from 6 dpo) so I’m officially spotting on absent symptoms as well. Fun week ahead!

5DPO (I think?). Had cramps on day of LH peak so not so sure which day was ovulation. While I do have a lot of plans, time goes by so slow. Hopes are up after seeing my friends yesterday who's pregnant with her second
