@Kaohinani: I didn't have veiny boobs the month I conceived but they were definitely much fuller/harder! That's the only symptom I had pre-BFP. Fingers crossed!

@Sams Mom:
That is amazing that you are having all of that (* Very exciting, actually, as most are preggie symptoms).
Mine are more ambiguous:
β’ Veiny breasts
β’ Bloating (* I have a 2-pack about the bellybutton but an extended round belly below... #frustrating)
β’ Slightly sensitive nipples (* I get it both during the TWW and at the start of pregnancy. Ugh!)
β’ Slight cramping
β’ I only had 1 zit so far this entire cycle ... normally chin acne brings me 2 or 3. When I was pregnant with DD, I broke out until 12 weeks BUT with DS, I had the most glowing and beautiful skin one has ever seen. This "non-symptom" is confusing at best.
IDK what is going on with me, but, if I test and get a BFN right now, I will be wrecked. #Waiting&Hoping

@skinnycow: Thank you! I just needed to hear whether or not it was a definitive "thing." I hope you are doing well and your pregnancy is progressing beautifully. (I always feel a bit creepy dropping in to check up. ππ€£)

To pass the time this evening. Here is my chart... not too promising but at least it looks ovulation did happen. (I hope)
I do wonder if my BBT thermometer is broken since it gives me 97.60 so many days!

@MsHangry: robo temps aren't unheard of. Some women aren't affected by room temp, sleep quality, sleep length, and so on; they just get fairly consistent readings.

@Kaohinani: All is well so far! Not creepy at all - I read the POAS board daily still just to check in
grapefruit / 4144 posts
@MsHangry: Hmmmm. IDK! As far as you are (@ only 9 dpo), your cycle could go either way. π€·ββοΈ I am so hopeful that this cycle will be a BFP for you. π€

@skinnycow: I am so happy for you! I can't wait until the baby (*birth) update at 38-42 weeks ... as uncomfortable as I am creepy-creeping on the mama boards, I am ALWAYS there to check in on the cute newborn pics of all those of whom I have TTC alongside.

@Sams Mom @Kaohinani: thank you ladies!! I am cautious. It can still go either way (thanks for the literal back of the napkin calculations posted earlier). I did buy OPKs for next cycle. So Iβll be ready

@Kaohinani: sorry, no veiny boobs for me. They were sore when I got AF and when I was pregnant sooo Iβm not really helpful with that. I hope it is a good sign for you!
@Sams Mom: sorry to hear about the sickness going around and your job. Hope you can find something quickly and get better soon! Still hoping for a BFP for you!
@YellowBeach: hoping the best for your upcoming retrieval and praying it all ends with a BFP for you!!
Thinking of all of you ladies who are ttc and poas. I know how hard it is but hang in there!

@LabradorLover: Thank you for taking the time to respond! Once again, congratulations on your BEAUTIFUL new addition.

SOB, I lied. I haven't had a single zit beyond today (unheard of this far along in my cycle!!!) AND THEN, I used the powder room and spotted ZIT #2!
#LosingHope #ARGH!
P.S. this is NOT an attractive angle. π€£π€£

@Kaohinani: no idea how you're resisting POAS. I'm a pale shade of translucent so that's not abnormal for me day to day - that being said, the veins kind of remind me of what my chest looked like when I was first bfing so I say it's a good sign!
I broke out so badly with DD (girls steal your beauty, you know ) so that could also be another symptom?
All the fingers crossed for you!

@Kaohinani: I didnβt notice veinier breasts when I got pregnant, but my breasts are on the veiny side to begin with π€£ I really hope itβs a BFP symptom for you though!!
Wishing luck and baby dust to all you ladies TTC! π€

@Sams Mom: @Kaohinani: wow you guys! I'm so sorry about the sickness, job loss and fractured foot! Bring on March, huh?! I hope you both recover quickly and @Sams Mom: you find a job you love more than your last one.

Took a dollar store test last night after a hold. I was 7 dpo, obviously it was stark white. I dont think I'll test again until Sunday eve and Monday AM, which will put me around 10-11 dpo. We'll be out of town with family, so I'd rather wait.

@Kaohinani: veiny/swollen breasts are always a symptom for me before I get a BFP. Iβm so hopeful for you, and I canβt wait for you to test!

Wow! I missed a lot last night.
@Kaohinani: I have no input on veiny breasts, I got them at ~8 weeks with my first pg, but never this early. Iβm so hoping that changes for you mean good things.
@MsHangry: οΈ
Iβm still hanging in, didnβt test this morning, but Iβm having some lower abdominal pains. Not cramps, more sharp, localized pain. Idk whatβs happening, and the only thing I can do is wait. It helps that this work week has been insane.

@Clementine12: @starlitsky: @SweetCaroline: @Jessiemuller88: @karenbme:
Thank you for responding!
Thank you also for sending luck and wishes for a BFP this cycle. To respond to an inquiry on why I haven't POAS since 9 dpo: I can hold off POAS simply bc if it is a BFN, I will be unbelievably upset. It is my 39th b.day , and I just want to live in the moment and for ONE day, not obsess over ALL things TTC and TWW. I am trying not to obsess over my drop in BBT today and, instead, focus on all things happy (the fact that today is ALSO National Margarita Day definitely helps! ). Imma going to party like it is 1999 (when I was 19) and not 2019 (now that I'm an "old mom. ") #GoalsForToday. #WashingtonsBDay. #NationalMargaritaDay. #KeepingThingsPositive
@SamsMom: Your chart looks gorgeous! π€π€π€π€π€π€

The trend in your chart has me betting it will jump to another high for you. Fingers crossed!
Now rock that air boot!

To all the lovey ladies who wished me a "Happy Birthday" and G/L with this cycle ...
Huge margarita... Because I CAN. (* Drink 'til it's pink! π€)
Ate and drank all I could ...
(DH had the entire restaurant sing, "Happy Birthday" as I wore a sombrero! As an introvert, I was 50 shades of red. π€£π€£)
... AND, right now I have a SERIOUS "food baby" and feel a bit ill. Today has been spectacular!
@Yellowbeach: Your birthday song made me laugh. I Looove it!
NOW, in a onsie with a small dog giving me oodles of attention. Soooooooo FULL!

@Kaohinani: love your pics! Thatβs how I like to celebrate a birthday too!
Here is my beverage tonight, cheers!

@Kaohinani: @LAZB: I wish I could handle tequila, because margaritas are tasty; but I learned long ago that it causes a chemical imbalance in me that makes me an asshole-er. π€¦ββοΈ

New non symptom: can't stand the taste of the food I've made the last 2 days, even though I really like them
grapefruit / 4144 posts
@LAZB: Thanks! Cheers!
@Sams Mom: It was delicious! Something tells me that you being "@sshole-er" would be funny [as long as it was not directed at moi ). I can only imagine the quips and sarcasm that would come from you.
As for your non-symptom, I have been going through the same! Of course, I have also gotten it when my P4 was very high (along with my sore boobs and gagging) - A total psych-out for me π€·ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ! But, since this is a new symptom for you, my next question is: When you gonna POAS? π€
P.S. Rocked the brace like a star yesterday!
