@Adira: great news! FX for you!
@bushelandapeck: I wish I could turn off my brain too. I feel so obsessed with the TWW. I hope the cramping means you are pregs!

@MrsMccarthy @Adira: Thanks! I'm *trying* not to think too much about it. We have a trip planned in VT this weekend and I hope to either be celebrating a BFP, or just enjoying a fun weekend with DH and LO. I hope I'll be happy either way.

@MrsMccarthy: Thanks!! Are you still testing on the Jan. 31st? Maybe we'll be BFP buddies!

@Keppa: Was sleeping last night any better?
@Mrs.Panda: Hooray! New eye sight on the way! Woohoo! I can't wait to hear how it went.
@Crystal: I've decided OPKs drive me crazy. And I want a monitor. -_-
Actually. I just want to get pregnant on a whim, but I guess we can't all get what we want.
Would it be weird to ask for a fertility monitor for my birthday? Yeah...probably weird.
Also. We need more BFPs. That is all.

@HolisticMama: agree on the BFPs! we must have a lot of testers coming up though?
I guess I should be happy I've made it to 8dpo without driving myself crazy?? I've been busy enough to not really notice it, thank goodness. I really, really, really want IUI#2 to work . . . LO's bday is Friday though so hopefully that distracts me until the weekend. I put my test date as Monday but I'm sure I'll cave before then.

@bhbee: :: clap clap clap :: I want your IUI#2 to work, as well!!
Do you have fun plans for LO's birthday?
cantaloupe / 6086 posts
@HolisticMama: nothing big, we figured 2 is the birthday to go low-key when they don't really care. I'll make cupcakes and a few dips and a couple of her toddler friends and parents will come over. she'll get a ton of gifts though because she's the only grandchild/niece/etc (none of our family is local so they won't be there live).
what I want to get her is a sibling!

I'm not going to roll call, since I won't be POAS until the first weekend of February, but we need some more
in this thread!!! C'mon, baby dust

Hey ladies-- I had a bunch of cramping for two weeks and now I don't feel anything at all!!! No sore breasts or anything. I should get my period on Friday-- but it feels like it disappeared. What gives? Does anyone else have big changes in their symptoms every month? Wondering if Vitex would fix the changes?

Hey there....please put me as a rollover for Feb. It just isn't my month:-/. Still here cheering for all of you!

@ChiCalGoBee: It's okay! I am done for January too, here's to February! I know I cannot control when I have a baby... I really want to BFP in Feb though, b/c with the recent snow storms in the NE region, I really don't want to need to go into labor in Jan/Feb!
nectarine / 2028 posts
@snowjewelz:Thanks for the support! I am actually early in the TWW but it just wasn't the right timing for this month. @littlek thanks, lady.

@Adira: I plan to! I may cave and test earlier though. We shall see. I am 4DPO today!!!
@HolisticMama: Not weird! get a monitor if you want one. they are great.
@bhbee: Good Luck honey!!! 8DPO is a feat!!! i'm going nuts at 4DPO.
@Lady Hibiscus: I had symptoms come and go when i was pregnant so you arent out yet!!!
@ChiCalGoBee: So sorry sweet pea. wishing you Valentines day BFP love. Are you saying no AF yet?
WE NEED SOME BFPS!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Mrs.Panda: How exciting about the lasik! Maybe I'll do that someday.
@HolisticMama: We definitely need more BFPs, I can't believe there's still so few of them!
@bhbee: 8DPO ovulation without driving yourself nuts is quite an accomplishment! I was doing pretty good and thought I only had like a week left...but then I actually ovulated a week late, so now I'm at the beginning of the TWW instead of the middle, and am going insane!
I'm not sure if I should move myself to being a rollover or not. I had planned on testing on the 29th, but since I didn't get my positive OPK until yesterday, I don't know if a BFP would show up that early even if I am pregnant.

Cuddles to my ladies who want them. Rollovers are such a bummer, but February is a great month of love and potential.

I haven't POAS, but what's the protocol? If it's you share? If it's
you share right away or wait until 8 weeks or so? I say 8 weeks because isn't that when a doctor will advise you to come in??
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: whatever you feel comfortable with.. But HPT are very reliable.
honeydew / 7295 posts
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: share when you feel comfortable. In my case I shared early with anyone I wouldn't mind going to for support if I had a chemical or miscarriage. Then at 12 weeks I shared with everyone.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@MrsMccarthy: I'm supposedly 3 DPO today and I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT IT! I'm so scared FF is going to move my O date and put my ONE sex session outside my fertile window!!
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
Yay!!! Finally a positive.. If only I wasn't sick.. DH is one lucky man hitting up this sickie..
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
I only mentioned because I've had the digital give me false positives.. Live and learn.. And buy wondfos.. LOL

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: A lot of people on this thread tend to share when they get a positive because, otherwise, what's the point on being on the thread (my opinion)? If you choose not to, what'd you do - pretend AF came, pretend to have a new POAS next month, etc.? I'm assuming you're talking about sharing with HB and not the world, right? I might be wrong.
honeydew / 7295 posts
@littlek: yay! Time to get busy. I hope your hubs won't mind doing most of the work. Good luck.
pomelo / 5720 posts
@littlek: Woohoo! Get busy
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: If you are talking IRL people, I chose not to share either time until 10+ weeks. The last time ended in m/c at 10 weeks and I was glad I hadn't told anyone except a few close girlfriends. It made it easier for me to process the loss on my own first, then tell people when I was ready. I think it totally depends on how you would feel best supported.
wonderful pea / 17279 posts
@LindsayInNY: correct sharing with HB. I'll probably just skip the POAS thread altogether.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I think the point of the POAS thread is to
Support those who are TTC and support each other whether it be a BFP or BFN.

@theotherstark: Looking forward to having you join in properly next month!

@littlek: I'm sorry that you are sick. That's a lot of pee sticks.
When did you start testing? And what CD is it now?
I had to laugh at your picture. I feel like my trash can looks like an OPK graveyard.
Anyone else feel that way?
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@HolisticMama: I test twice a day. I have a POAS addiction.. LOL
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@HolisticMama: yep.. Top is earliest and bottom is most recent..
wonderful pea / 17279 posts
@littlek: I get that, but as a hopeful first time prefers lady I don't want to share a 2 week old just to lose it within the first tri. My husband's co worker lost her baby at 20 weeks. That scared the mess out of me. But, on the flip side I don't want to lie about it either. I probably won't wait til 12 weeks or 20 weeks before sharing it on HB, but instant POAS seems a bit scary.
