I'm Currently Feeling: | What must I do during my 2WW? I ovulated in the early hours of 17th May and had DH in active service just hours later. What can I/ must I do in the endless days of the 2WW? Should I be pursuing an active life or lying flat on my back in bed wriggling about like a pinball machine as I try to steer the tadpoles?
Should I be consuming vitamins or supplements? Or should I just pretend its not all happening and POAS on the 1st June?  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | If I knew the answer to that question I would market it!! 
Roll on the most endless 2 weeks of your life!! (until AF that is and then you want 2 weeks for ovulation!!  )
I take my temps endlessly, check for symptoms, stare at my Fertility Chart....also just bought Taking Care of your fertility - ovusoft...fat lot of good it will do!
So all in all I just try and while away the hours/days/weeks!!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Pursuing an active life of course!!!! That means, BnB, FF, Google, Wikipedia, POAS.com, etc etc etc.
I recommend the nhs website and then image-googling any conditions you've never heard of.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | We all stress in the 2ww. If you can distract yourself - do so! The longer you wait before you test the better for your own sanity!
Good luck xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thank you everybody. I'm trying not to think about the whole thing but am bracing myself for a BFN on the 1st June.
I've just done my first course of Clomid - I suppose it IS normal to ovulate on Clomid? The problems I think must be egg/sperm interaction and implantation difficulties?
Sorry if I sound stupid - I'm new to this and don't know anyone else in the situation that I can ask. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Its easier said than done, my first month TTC I was totally obsessed, had every symptom going and was very disappointed with I got a BFN and AF started....
I promised I would be more laid back in future, which I was..........
I was convinced this month TTC I didnt have a hope in hell, as nearly missed Ovulation and only BD'ed twice.. I got my BFP!!
So relax as much as possible and carry on as normal.
Its gets harder nearer testing time, and I gave in and tested 8dpo! But then I have no willpower at all
Good luck and hope you get your BFP soon  | | | | Status: Offline
