    @nicole112: !!!!

    Well, after the let down of yesterday morning's BDing that wasn't successful, I finally got DH to try again last night. I guess he was completely exhausted? He was asleep on the couch when I got home around 5, and didn't get up until I woke him around 7 or so. Then he went to bed and fell asleep again! He finally woke up when I went to bed.

    I was pretty crampy yesterday, so I'm hoping that our timing was downright perfect. My OPK was finally not positive this morning, so if I didn't O last night, I'm guessing I will early today.

    @nicole112: I'm notoriously bad at seeing those. Take a frer!!!

    @LindsayInNY: I *used* to be excited about AF arriving, lol.

    We have DH's friends coming to stay with us tonight, and they have a two year old. It is restaurant week (great deals on 3 course meals), but since they have a two-year-old, we have to go with something kid-friendly and miss out tonight. I texted DH that we get the downside of having a kid, but none of the upsides. Grrr!

    Today is CD10. I am going out of town CD16. I think I am trying to make sex the focus rather than BD. Given I will be gone for a week, it makes sense to do it frequently. The fact that is is in FW is just a bonus (not really true, I am trying to convince myself to take the pressure off).

    I have a lot to get done today with DH's friends coming. Lots of cleaning. Good times.

    Here's my positive thought for today: I was reading about Trista and Ryan (the first bachelorette couple). They were getting IF testing done at two years, and then became pregnant. Their second child was unplanned and they are 20 months apart. I love hearing stories like that.

    @MamaCate: still no Af. One day late. I'm still thinking it's probably travel that's making out late. But I do travel weekly for work.

    @dc yoga bee: when are you testing?

  13. dc yoga bee

    grapefruit / 4770 posts

    @littlek: Friday if no Af I guess. I'm tired of bfn, and I think it's probably just delayed. We only had sex O-4 or 5 and O+1 or O. I have zero symptoms other than I slept all weekend. That could just be from long days of training catching up to me though. Zero symptoms otherwise.

    @dc yoga bee: I hear ya on the BFNs... Are you relatively confident about your O date? FX!!!

    @LindsayInNY: The one month I didn't use opks bc I was gone most of the month usually o 17 or 18 with a 10 day lp. *Butt* AF is always 27-29 days tops since I was 16 with one 30 day cycle the month I took the bar exam, & one the month I started my job. And when I say* travel* I was in the same state, but different routine. But, I travel out of town every week so I'm not sure why this month would throw off AF. I'm surprisingly meh, and not getting hopes up! There's a cvs nearby, but that'd be crazy with the busy area I work in lol.

    @dc yoga bee: That's how it usually works! Anytime my cycle is a little off, it's the one time I decide to forgo temping or OPKs. What CD is today?

    @LindsayInNY: CD 30, So only 1 day late

    Meeting's over... back to obsessing! It's so exciting on here today!

    @nicole112: don't leave us hangin! Pee on something!

    @DC yoga bee: I'm sorta with you on the meh. Even though I don't have any signs of AF, I can't see myself going to buy a test. Bfns suck a lot.

    My headache from yesterday is back and I feel a little yucky today. Probably from squinting so hard at that damn stick. **sigghhh**

    @organicmama: LOL I had a big meeting this am too. I have to file a motion by 5 though, so I need to go do some work! How many days late are you?

    I'm sorry guys! The service here at work sucks and I have to use my phone bc I'm at work! I'm working for about 2-3 more hours...I plan on getting a frer on my way home and I will pee on it as soon as I get home and will post immediately after!! Freaking out! I called hubby on my way to work and he keeps texting me for updates! I did have a slight pink tinge earlier today but then it went away. Def was a scare for a moment but that was it. This is the longest day of my life! Plus I have an intern so I can't look at my phone as often! Grr..makes it even worse!! But I promise I will update ASAP!!! Thanks for all your love!!

    @MaryM: FX that your timing is good this month!

    @AmeliaBedilia: Sorry about your friends kid cramping your style. Restaurant week can be so much fun!

    @dc yoga bee: I'm hoping AF stays away.

    @nicole112: Eeek! Hurry up end of the day.

    @organicmama: thinking good thoughts for you!

    @nicole112: I love the Wondfo OPKs, but honestly their HPTs are so frustrating! Go get that FRER, and good luck!!

    @nicole112: Good luck, doll! I saw something on your earlier test so I'm so excited that this could be it for you!

    @nicole112: try another frer in the morning. You probably have diluted pee right now

  28. nicole112

    apricot / 278 posts

    @organicmama: Thanks! I hope you are right! Will do...are you going to use a frer? How are you doing???

    pomegranate / 3658 posts

    @nicole112: Sorry for the BFN, but you might not be out yet. See what happens in the morning!

    cherry / 230 posts

    @nicole112: I hope so too! At least you didnt get af today. How many dpo are you? well I thought i had some frer's stashed away somewhere and indeed I did! Found 2 of them. I will use one in the a.m. I'm just such a big drinker, I can't go an hour without water! Going to do my best to hold my water a couple hours before bed tonight.

    I'm having a rough afternoon! Trying to focus on something else (like all the things I NEED to do) but I am not doing a very good job of it. My mind is spinning. I need to chill! I have a follow up with RE tomorrow at 11am. I hope I have an answer by then!!!

    @DC yoga bee: howwedoin??
    @kate6214: still hangin in there?

    @organicmama: I too am a big drinker and did drink a lot of water today. So I hope that's it. If I had to guess how many DPO I am...I would guess maybe 13 or so. I didn't track anything this month to help de-stress and just used signs that I typically get around O. I feel the same way...my head is spinning and can't think straight lol. I'm off from work tmw thank goodness. Today was torture and am trying to stay hopeful but not too hopeful. Wow this is true torture!! Good luck with the RE tmw!!!

    @organicmama: Big hugs! Hope you get an answer, and a good/easily fixable one.

    @nicole112: Hoping so hard for you!

    Here's my craziness for today: JC Penney sent me one of those awesome $10 off $10. I was looking around and found a medium, gender neutral sleep sac on clearance for $5, and two crib sheets for $3 each (a little boyish but a shade of blue I love). I was happy I would get them all for $1! I went to ring up, and there was an "emergency stop sale," meaning a recall from the company. I get it for a carseat or something, but sheets and a sleepsac? That is my first world problem today.

    @dc yoga bee: good luck with your work! Hope AF staying away is a good sign...sometimes improbable things happen.

    @organicmama: hoping this is your month!

    @nicole112: hoping it is just diluted and you will have better news in the morning! Thanks for keeping us in the loop!

    Exciting day around here today!

    Well, I took one for the team. I told DH I didn't feel well- tired, lightheaded, and bloated. He told me to go POAS, and BFN. Womp womp. We were both pretty sure. I used a wondfo, but between that, the bleeding (while timing of implantation was heavy enough to be a light period), and my temp being down, it is clear that I'm not KU. Now I don't feel well and don't have a good reason.

    On a somewhat happy note, DH's friends got delayed, so they told us to go have dinner without them. This was especially good because DH and I were super hungry and would have had a hard time waiting for a late dinner. I had tomato basil soup, prime rib, and creme brulee for $20. Yum!

    @organicmama: I'm hanging. I kept checking for AF all day today, but she's still not here. Not sure if I'll test tomorrow or Friday.

    @nicole112: I would try again in the morning. It could just be too diluted.

    @AmeliaBedilia: Sorry about the BFN

  36. dc yoga bee

    grapefruit / 4770 posts

    @AmeliaBedilia: Sorry about the BFN. That steak dinner sounds fabulous btw. How many DPO are you??

    @nicole112: It's not over until it's over!

    @MamaCate: Thanks!

    @organicmama: So, I had a tiny amount of brown spotting. I have a short lp, so AF was due 11DPO. Today is 12DPO, and a quick google search shows implantation can be as late as 12DPO. That sounds like grasping at straws to me, so I'll continue to wait it out. I never spot before AF usually. It just shows up in the morning. This was spotting at 4:30pm, and stopped. I'll just have to wait and see if it turns into AF...or not

    @mamacate: thanks! Me too.

    @DC yoga bee: I can hardly stand all this suspense!! Are you prepared with a frer for tomorrow morning?

    @kate6214: me too! And checking for AF compulsively like I did today with a 5 year old in tow was NOT easy. Weird thing is I just don't have AF cramps. I don't even feel her coming on. Why don't I have cramps?! So weird!

    I'm cautiously hopeful for all of us!! And I sure am praying for us all too

  38. Kate6214

    cherry / 245 posts

    @organicmama: That is strange. Though if you usually do have them then maybe it's good that you don't? Good luck at the RE tomorrow.

    @dc yoga bee: FX for you!

  39. dc yoga bee

    grapefruit / 4770 posts

    @organicmama: lol...no. I'm not even in suspense! I just don't think it would be implantation bleeding this late in the game? I think it's just a wacky cycle with pre-AF light brown spotting. I guess I just can't fathom it actually happening. I do have a barre class tomorrow morning I'm pretty excited for!

    Spotting turned into AF. Womp womp womp. On to the next.
