2WW....I think I'm getting myself worked up

My cycle is very irregular. If it is 23-26 days, then there's no chance I'm KU. If it was over 27 days, then I could be. I have been having "symptoms": headache today. Cramps for the last few days. My teeth hurt today. WTF? My teeth??? I've been tired. Not, I can barely keep my eyes open tired, but tired. I have been super hungry (I do get that way a week before AF though). I'll test next Friday if AF doesn't rear her ugly head before then. I need to stop thinking about this. I don't know what I'm going to do if I have to do a 2WW for several cycles. Ughh!!! I think  I might buy some OPK's (even though I was hoping to avoid going that route) just so I don't obsess over this every month since my cycles are so off month to month.

Re: 2WW....I think I'm getting myself worked up

  • It is tough...distraction and anything that minimizes obsessing :)

    Good luck! For what it's worth...I noticed symptoms pretty early...bloat, crampy, tired.

  • lol oohhh mmmannn i remember the dreaded 2ww, i did it for about 11 months. You'll drive yourself crazy analyzing every symptom just try to relax and keep occupied with other things. I know how hard it can be though! Its super annoying that pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are basically identical. I definetely thought i was going to get AF anyday the week I got my BFP. I was so gassy (yeah TMI) and my boobs felt like they were on fire or going to fall off or something.
  • relax im in 2ww also! good luck i hope you get your bfp soon.
  • Hang in there girl!!!! This your first cycle. It might take you a few before you get everything down. Are you charting? Buy some OPK if AF arrives this month. I know its hard not to get stressed. Hang in there...try not to worry. It will happen!!! It took me 6+ months. The month I gave up it happened. Before long I will be coming to see you and your beautiful baby!!!!
  • It took me 11 months as well, and the month I gave up is the month that it happened.

    Don't let yourself get so worked up yet with this being the first month...have a little fun with it, or else you are going to be burned out and stressed to the max in no time.

  • My cycles were irregular too, and the OPKs actually helped me relax because I could see I was actually ovulating (my charts never have me the pretty temp spike, so I wasn't sure). I used the clear blue easy smiley face ones. Good luck! Have fun in the meantime! :)
