**TWW 1/4-1/11**Crazy Train Boards Here!!

[wannabmama]

Let's go ladies. This is the place you can talk about all the craziness that comes with the dreaded two week wait. Phantom symptoms, implantation dips and possible spotting, what you are doing to make the time fly by, and much much more. Post as often or as little as you want. We are here for you. Chart stalks available upon request or if there is a link, we may look just to pass the time or out of curiosity. Gifs are also welcome!

GTKY: Are you relieved when the holidays are over or sad?

[bazinga]

Happy New year ladies, here's hoping for lots of BFPs!

I'm 10DPO today and was doing really well at not obsessing and symptom spotting until I started spotting this afternoon after some mild cramping this morning. I'm sure this will turn out to be pre-period spotting arriving early (usually 12DPO), but I'm oh-so-hopeful it might be implantation bleeding. I'm aboard the train...

QOTW: This year I'm actually glad the holidays are over. They were a bit stressful and not much fun. Not terrible, just not very special this year for some reason. Hopefully next year we'll be more settled in our new house and be able to relax and enjoy...

[wannabmama]

bazinga you can try to stay off the train...but bodies seem to love to draw you right back on board! Fx for you and I hope next year feels more "festive" in the holidays!

[beachdreamer]

I *think* I'm here but FF hasn't confirmed. I'm going off what my cycles typically are and saying I'm 1 DPO right now. I'll be here a while. Fx for you bazinga.

[wannabmama]

I think I go here, too...I stopped temping bc I've been sick and traveling and I knew it would be no use. I just did an OPK and it was negative (I rarely turn it anyway, but thought I'd give it a shot) and today would be about the latest O ever....so I am guessing I already did. But...who knows. I'm going to temp again tomorrow bc I am home and I think I'm past the sickness, so hopefully I can tell if I'm in post-O temps. Despite being in tight quarters with the family, we got a couple of sexy times in, just have no idea if the timing was any good!

[hooligans4]

I think I will be the engineer on this train. Toot toot. ?
I am 9dpo and going crazy. I want to test tomorrow but I know it's too early. I went and looked at my cycles from my last two bfps (both ended in losses) and I didn't get positives until 12 dpo.
I'm obsessing about getting on progesterone as soon as possible, I know the chances of this cycle being successful is low but I'm still going nuts.
So I will test tomorrow but that won't quiet the crazy.

And on a side note: one of my sisters just announced she is pregnant and when my mother told my grandmother she would soon have 14 great grandchildren, my grandmother asked if it was me. That was a heartbreaking for me. I'm happy for my sister but I'm sad for me.

So I will be stopping at all the stations to pick up the other passengers on this weeks crazy train ( I'm Mobil so I can't tag, sorry)

[wannabmama]

hooligans4 don't forget to pick me up on your way through I'm sorry about the sister/grandmother situation. But I hope you are not far behind!

[sleepymonkey]

Just a lurker stopping by the crazy train station to say I have my FX for all of you here!

Thanks for making me laugh!!  

Sorry about the sister/grandma situation.  Fx for you too.

[hooligans4]

So I have not tested yet but not by choice, it's because I'm a scatterbrain.
Yesterday I just forgot. Good job!!!!
Today I get a little cup, pee in it, take out a test, go to flush and say ooooh let me flush this pee before I forget.
Did you catch that, yes I flushed the pee before I dipped the dang stick.
What is wrong with me.
This is why I'm driving the train this week.

Maybe i will test later today but probably not.
Ugh!!!!
I wish there was a face plant emoji I could use right now.

[wannabmama]

hooligans4 that's frustrating...but pretty funny. Sounds like something I would do. Good luck when you do test!!

[beachdreamer]

Finally got CH this morning! Today is 3DPO. Nothing to do now except to wait until next week.

[bazinga]

Good luck when you do test hooligans4!

And yay for CH beachdreamer.

I'm still going nuts over here at 13 DPO with occasional spotting and cramping but no sign of AF yet...

[wannabmama]

beachdreamer welcome aboard!
bazinga are you going to test or wait?!

So I took my temp yesterday and today, just curious if they seemed in my normal post-O range bc I didn't temp this cycle due to fever and today's was crazy low. And so I jumped H this am...but am frustrated that I have no idea if I O'ed yet. I'm on CD 21 and usually O 15-18, but did once as late as 24, so I guess maybe I haven't yet, though I would've sworn I had EWCM and O pains way back on 15. Oh well, guess time will tell! I'm totally going back to temping now, though...

[bazinga]

wannabmama, I think some other ladies over in the GKU TWW thread were saying that they had delayed O following fevers and illness over the holidays so maybe that's what's going on? So frustrating for you though!

I am driving myself crazy thinking "what if" here and wondering if I should test tomorrow just to know one way or another.

I think part of me is really scared because the prolonged pre-period spotting I'm having is very similar to how my ectopic presented in June, although that started at 12dpo. Then the sensible part of me says that just buying a HPT tonight will be enough to bring on AF before I get home!

[wannabmama]

bazinga well...turns out I either O'ed crazy early, never O'ed, or had a bizarre short LP bc last night, AF showed up. On CD21...so that sucks. I have no idea what happened. What a time to have skipped temping, eh? Or who knows...maybe those high temps I thought were related to fever were actually post-O just crazy early. Le sigh. Usually sickness and travel make my cycles longer...and then my body thought, "ha! Fooled you!"
bazinga good luck whatever you decide to do!! I have it all crossed for you!!

[hooligans4]

Well it looks like I am out. Negative test this am and CF has a pink tinge so period will be here soon I'm sure.

But this mornings crazy is that I spent 15 minutes this morning looking for my glasses. Apparently I fell asleep wearing them because after searching behind the night stand and under the bed I went into the bathroom to check if I left them on the counter after my shower last night and I look up at the mirror and there they are sitting on my face. Who does that!!!! This girl.

I will root you all on and I hope we see a BFP.

I'm sure I will be driving this train in two weeks again.

[wannabmama]

Sorry to you hooligans4 (the glasses story though...lol!)

[bazinga]

Sorry for the short cycle wannabmama, I hope next month is clearer for you.

And sorry to you too hooligans4. Glad you find your glasses

I'm still just spotting here. If no AF on the morning I will test as that's when I'll be officially "late". Eek.

[bazinga]

And... AF arrived as I was on my way to CVS. I bought wine and chocolate instead of HPTs. Will restart the healthy living tomorrow, it is Friday afterall...

[wannabmama]

Sorry bazinga I heartily approve of your change in course at cvs though...and wine and chocolate are healthy, right? Especially dark chocolate...

[hooligans4]

Good choice on the wine and chocolate bazinga.
I'm still waiting for AF so I can't indulge with you just yet, I'm figuring my tomorrow I will be drinking my whiskey right along with you.

[sleepymonkey]

Boo to AF arriving for you ladies!

[hooligans4]

AF has officially arrived. I will be drinking heavily tonight.
