Twinges, cysts and 2WW...lovely combo!

Ergh! I am not enjoying being thrown back into the reality of 2WWs at all!
Firsty, Fertility Friend decided to move my O-day so instead of BDing O-2 and on O it now stands that we BD'd O-1 and O+1...not sure which is best really?! But hubby was pleased to hear that FF rated our BDing 'good'...haha!

So, I am now 4dpo and for the past 2 days I have been experiencing endless amounts of twinges and pinches...something I have never experienced before. My guess is - this is our first TTC cycle since the ectopic, I think I'm paying way too much attention to my body and therefore noticing every little thing! Isn't 3-4dpo a little early to be noticing anything 'significant'. I don't know? Someone tell me, please.

Also, 4 days ago (during the ever-so attractive ritual of checking cervix positioning...) I noticed a small lump/cyst...pea(?) on my cervix. This has totally freaked me out. But again, this is my first cycle of charting and for all I know, it's always been there and I've just never felt it before. Feel free to shed some light here also, please.

I'm really not doing a very good job at keeping calm and I'm only 4dpo!!

Breathe Chrissie, breathe.

Just an added thought: HPT-day will be falling on my 23rd birthday...

2WW - I really haven't missed you....

According to Fertility Friend, I am officially in the midst of my first 2WW since my ectopic pregnancy - scary!

Time has absolutly flown by this past 3 months, which really has been a blessing. I remember feeling so put down when we were forced to take a 3 month break from TTC but it has given me time to reign my emotions in and get ready to hit this ball out of the park!

As previous blogs have stated, this is my first cycle using Fertility Friend - I guess I'm still a little cautious to trust it entirely, after all - could it really have sussed out my cycle before even I have?!

But, if I am to trust it - today is 3dpo. 3 days in to a loooong 2 weeks. I get insanely impatient.

I'm a bit gutted that we failed to 'BD' the day before the big O - seeing that has made me feel a little deflated. But ho-hum, there's always next cycle...

CD17 comes with a feeling of hope

Yes, 2 blogs in one day! The first, 'Pregnant Friends', I guess was a bit of a rant - a therapeutic release of words you might say!

So it's CD17 for me, and the first cycle that I've been 'charting/temping' and all that jazz. Some might find it strange that after over a year of TTC I've only just started to really monitor and get to know my cycle - I've always viewed it as an extra stress, perhaps even a passion killer? But I thought I'd jump on the band-wagon and see what it's all about.

I have no idea when 'O-day' usually arrives for me, and Fertility Friend suggests that it's still to come, but, as the title suggests, I'm hopeful. Not necessarily thinking that we'll conceive this cycle but hopeful that our time is just around the corner. Ooooo the thought just makes me buzz with excitement and joy!

Keep hoping, wishing and praying - our time will come.
