@littlebit: So excited for you and FX for your bloodwork!!
@Mrs. Amethyst: Wow, those are some PINK lines! What DPO are you?
My update: Well, I'm 10 DPO but since my LP is typically only 11-12 days (though sometimes longer like 14 or 15 days, but only when I spot a ton--my cycles are so weird I don't know what to say), I figured I'd test today. Aaaaand BFN. On both Wondfo and FRER.
Just for the heck of it I tested the past two mornings with Wondfos too, though I wasn't surprised or disappointed to get BFNs. They're just so cheap I couldn't resist.
I've been spotting every day but one of my LP, starting on the day of O (which was confirmed by OPK, CB fertility monitor, and temps). So that can't be good. But I'm not out until AF shows, which could be any day from tomorrow through Monday.
Honestly I'm just so happy for all the BFPs on this board I am loving the positive energy. If it doesn't happen this month for us, that's fine--seeing all these BFPs gives me hope in general, and it will happen for us if/when it's meant to happen!

@stratosphere: Good luck! And I love your name.
How do you like the CB fertility monitor? This is my first cycle using one and I'm on CD22 and the 'm' is already flashing. My cycles are generally 27-28 days and I think I O'd pretty early on CD10 this month, but that flashing 'm' just makes me want to test! Too early. Too early.

Thanks ladies!
@rlceigh: So far I'm liking the CB fertility monitor. A friend gave it to me along with 20 of the test sticks (she had her second LO this year and is done) when I confided in her that we were about to start TTC. I completely reset the monitor (the instructions try to scare you into not doing so, but it's totally fine--they're trying to sell more monitors!) and used it this cycle for the first time (our first TTC).
I found the indicator of "high" fertility to map pretty closely to my EWCM and the "peak" days definitely caught O-1 and O spot on, as corroborated by OPKs and temping. Unfortunately we didn't get to BD on O day but that's because my husband had a business trip, so we were stuck with only BDing early in the morning of O-1 before he had to catch his flight!
Since then, during the TWW I've only turned on the monitor once or twice (last night was the last time) and it hasn't flashed the m yet!
But I like it. I've had two different friends tell me they swore by it--they didn't temp, didn't do OPKs, just used the monitor and both got pregnant within 2-3 cycles. (And both ladies are in their mid to late 30s.)
I'm a science nerd at heart, so I actually love data and don't mind temping and OPKs in addition to the monitor, but for folks who want a simpler method to this madness, I think the CB fertility monitor is the way to go!

@Littlebit: Did you say you had a full period, and then spotting, and then a positive HPT? ? What cycle day did you get your positive? I always still hope I'm pregnant even though I get a period!!

@mrs.amethyst: congrats!
now who was it who found those stats about november being the best month to conceive?!

@Littlebit: I hope everything goes well even with your bleeding. Could it have just been implantation?
@Mrs. Amethyst: wow! That's a great looking BFP

@Snowdrop: Did someone say that?! I can't keep up... It certainly seems that way, that's for sure!! FX for everyone left!

@MrsMcD: yeah, it was a full period! Tmi, but It even soaked through the tampon to my clothes once very weird! I got my positive at CD 16 of the next cycle, but I was getting super positive OPK's since CD13 and both tests showed up super fast. So I probably could have gotten a BFP sooner if I had tested with a FRER before now. I tested with FRERs at 10 and 11dpo and got BFN?
.@Kate6214: I'm guessing you're right! It was probably implantation!

@Littlebit: I've heard stories of some people having full periods each month while pregnant! ::shiver:: I hope you're not one of those people!

@Littlebit: That is just so exciting! I'm hoping for a H&H 9 months for you!!

A big heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone's well wishes. I'm still a bit in shock and it hasn't completely sunk in yet. For those who asked, I'm 13 DPO. I was going to wait till tomorrow to test, but I got super antsy.

@Littlebit: i did some pretty big drinking on my honemoon when i got KU! i have a healthy beautiful son. you dont share as much with then in the beginning. i am thinking of you and hoping your bleeding is just something normal. i know many women who bleed during healthy pregnancies. i hope thats true for you.
