Hey all, As i am just heading into my 2WW i wondered which week people hated the most? The first or the second??!!!
Personally i hate the 1st the most - its boring and drags. At least in the second week i can obsess about whether i am feeling sick or my bb's are sore!!!!

For me it was the second, I usually managed to forget about it during the first week, but during the second week I just kept wondering if the was going to show!

I concur, the second half is far worse. In the first week or two there's so much hope and positivity. Then it's alllll downhill, with every BFN or repressed POAS impulse it gets more of an "am I flippin' crazy here?!?" game.

Also, I've been meaning to ask the ladies that have been to it for a while (Maz, Tishimouse, Chebelle, NeyNey, miel, Wendy, etc). Does it get easier? Does one obsess a tad less with every cycle? So far this one feels better for me than the one past and the one before it.

I think the second (im in it now!) is worse.. the first week i kinda dont think about it and have so much to stay positive for but now im obssessing over everything, af due in 2 days and im thinking am i imagining all these symptoms?? is she gonna turn up.. my poas addiction is unbelievable and i really think im going insane.. seeing lines that are not there and imagining symptoms im prob not even getting!! haha oh the joys of TTC!

I agree!

OT but let me take this opportunity to apologize for botching everyone's name.

The first week you're full of hope, the second week you're full of fear - at least that's how I am anyway...

Thats a great way to put it Mynxie! I'm only 6DPO and i've not had any symptoms yet ... im feeling very negative about this month

Yeh, I agree - 2nd week cos that's when I feel I ought to just 'know' I'm PG but realise I don't feel that way and I'm not getting any symptoms - that's so secretly, I start accepting I won't get my BFP.

It'll be different this month though cos 'll get my BFP. I know it. x

The weird thing i find about TTC is how internal all the feelings are. In the 2WW i am always quite careful not to tell hubby about any symptoms i am feeling. I did that the first couple of months of TTC and then had to watch his face drop when i told him had arrived after all. So, i've kind of gone the other way now and play down anything i am feeling and say things like "I just feel like i am going to come on, i dont feel pg" even if its not true, just so that he doesn't get his hopes up too much.
Its crap as usually i can and will talk to him about absolutely everything! Guess i just want to protect him really!
