@littlek: I want to grab B and smooch him! That icon picture is so adorable!
-
@bhbee: that's smart. I hope you can enjoy your time off, and that you won't even need next steps!
-
@Crystal: is it sad that when I see that second line, I automatically get aroused? My mind goes into BD mode. Cologne and 6-pack abs used to take me there but now all it takes is that dark line on an OPK, baby. MEOW. (totally sarcastic "meow")
-
@Crystal: ok that is just completely true for me!! sad!
-
@CupQuakeWalk: rawr! lol nothing sexier than seeing the numerous strips I've peed on lined up on the counter!
@bhbee: me too!!!
I laughed at these too:
-
@Crystal: Those are funny. It is so good and so hard to see DH being adorable with little kids.
5DPO and I have had a nothing-going-right kind of day. Tomorrow I have a majorly stressful day at work. Please send good thoughts/prayers. Thanks!
-
@Crystal: that last one got me. I tell you guys more than I do my RL friends. I feel like they don't even know me right now because there is so much that i'm hiding. I just don't feel like sharing it yet!
-
@CupQuakeWalk: I'm the same way! Family and friends don't even know half of what you all know.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: amen to that!

Happy Monday, ladies. I hope everyone had a really nice weekend. I am back.
Although my cheapie test and FRER at 8 DPO were positive, my cheapie tests have not gotten any darker and I am getting BFNs on FRERs. I am trying to be optimistic because it's still so early (and I still *feel* extremely KU and the cheapie tests are +), but at this point I am anticipating a CP. (And really, really hoping it's not an EP.)
ETA - just in case anyone is wondering. I do NOT regret testing so early (I would much rather have all in this my records and know that I *can* get pregnant), but I *am* feeling rather stupid and embarassed for letting myself get so excited so early. I have not told DH about the subsequent tests because he skeptical of early results as it is and I don't need to send him on this emotional roller coaster.
-
@Crystal: Those are hilarious - and exactly what I needed on this Monday. Thank you!
@AmeliaBedilia: Loads of good thoughts coming your way!!!
-
@septca: oh no. I hope it's just really early
-
@septca:
I hope it's just early. My temp was low again today. Definitely out. Feeling slight AF cramps. I'm pretty bummed. I was so sure this was our cycle.
-
@septca: I'm keeping my hopes up for you!
@mrs. tictactoe: So sorry you are feeling out this cycle.
@Crystal: Oh my gosh... these are hilarious. I would have done so many things differently if I knew getting pregnant was going to be this hard!
-
@septca: I hope its just too early. You are testing with FMU, right? Will you go in for betas?
@MrsMcD: Right?! Though I guess its good I'm older, because now I can buy vodka with my pregnancy tests, lol.
@mrs. tictactoe: I'm sorry. Boooo.
-
@Crystal: There's something so funny about buying alcohol and pregnancy tests. I don't know why it brings me so much joy.
-
@Crystal: OMG those are sooo funny! Thanks really brighten up my day! I really kept TTCing to myself till this month and it was really helpful to have all of you to chat with this month.
@septca: FX!!
@mrs. tictactoe: So sorry. But you are not out till you are out!
How was everyone's Easter (that celebrate it)?
We aren't religious but we take times like this (like xmas) to get together with family and do the silly other traditions... like egg hunts and eating together.
This year we got a honey baked ham and my dad said it was really good better than honey baked ham... haha I think he thought I cooked it, but we said it IS honey baked ham! I hope all of you had a lovely holiday!
-
@Crystal: Yep. FMU. Honestly, if I didn't have photographic proof from Friday I would wonder whether I was going crazy. I really don't want to deal with betas because last time I had to go in 3 times and the numbers were inconclusive - it was so stressful waiting for the results and then not really knowing what they meant. I would rather skip that. AF is due Friday and I am scheduled for an u/s at the end of next week (I get super early u/s to make sure it's not an EP)... if AF doesn't show, I will feel better and think I can wait until the u/s.
I am out of FRERs and am not letting myself buy any more before my next batch comes on Wednesday night... so I'll keep testing with cheap tests until 14 DPO and then use a FRER again. At that point, if the line is not *significant*, it'll be over.
-
@septca: Big, huge hugs, and
I hope you'll get to see your little bean soon! And know we are here for you... @Raindrop: I don't know what I would do without all of you! Your story is cute!
@MrsMcD: Right? And I especially love the judgey looks from the check out people.
-
@mrs. tictactoe:
I was really hopeful for you this cycle. I still hope there is a happy surprise for you.
-
@Radish: @Raindrop: Now you guys have me googling "temp below coverline and pregnant"
-
@septca: Sending hugs and prayers your way!
My day was stressful but went well. I was able to schedule my disability insurance physical after work tomorrow, meaning that it will be 7DPO rather than 9DPO. Without it being FMU and drinking plenty of water, I figure it should be a BFN. (For those of you just joining in, I want a BFP, but would prefer it not come til after this physical or my insurance coverage won't be as good.)
-
@septca: I am so sorry. How stressful! I am hoping you are just so early, that is all. Sending you lots of sticky dust.
-
@septca: I'm so sorry this is going on. How are you feeling?
-
@AmeliaBedilia: I hope you get the bfn for your LTDI test, and then in the next few days get a bfp!! Wouldn't that be awesome? Would a bfp this cycle make you lose your insurance coverage?
-
@AmeliaBedilia: FX!
@mrs. tictactoe: I did the same thing last month, lol. I have hope for you!
-
@AmeliaBedilia: Good luck today!!
-
FF logged me out on my phone and I can't log back in - no idea what my username and/or password is - so I'm taking it as a sign. No more of that!! It just makes me crazy. Both times I got pregnant (one was a loss, but whatever), I wasn't charting or using opks. One time I was on clomid and one time I wasn't, but we just BD EOD and didn't put any more thought into it than that. If I am out, I just want AF to hurry the heck up so I can move on to the next cycle. This is the worst part of the TWW. When you know you're out, but can't quite move on and still hold on to some teeny tiny shred of hope.... It makes me want to punch something! Lol.
-
@AmeliaBedilia: Good luck!
@mrs. tictactoe: *hugs* Totally understand what you are going through. TTW is definitely the worst part.
@septca: Any updates? FX for you!
I wish I could relax about this but every month we have a BFN I think oh no our kids are going to be so far apart and my hubs... ever the easy going guy... he's like so what? He said he's fine even if they are 5 years apart (OMG I hope that is not the case!). Though it does make me laugh.
-
@mrs. tictactoe: did you end up testing?
-
@CupQuakeWalk: awww thanks!
-
@Raindrop: I have the same fear. I also feel like what if I never have another baby and I waste all this time trying just for Liam to end up an only child anyway.
I have not tested since Friday at 10dpo. I feel more crampy today, so I know AF is coming. It's due tomorrow...
-
@mrs. tictactoe: I'm sorry.
Update - just started spotting.
-
@mrs. tictactoe: I'm sorry.
@septca: I commented on the other thread. With this pregnancy I spotted at 9 DPO and I was fine. With B I spotted anytime AF was due and he's now 2. I think @Sandy spotted around 9 DPO and 13 DPO. -
@mrs. tictactoe: Ugh, I totally understand that feeling. Once I know I am out, I just want to move on and move forward.
-
@septca: Oh hun, FX its just some implantation stuff. Can you go to the doctors?
-
@septca: So many hugs. I really hope it's just implantation.
-
@septca: big hugs! Like @littlek said I did spot at 9dpo and 13dpo
-
@mrs. tictactoe: sorry you are feeling down :(. I'm thinking of you and FX for a BFP soon!
-
@septca: @mrs. tictactoe: Sorry for both of you but again could be implantation and you guys are out till full force AF shows up!
I was really hopeful for you this cycle. I still hope there is a happy surprise for you.
