@septca: Ooh! FX for you!!!
@Lady Hibiscus: You can take me off the 28th for this month. I haven't O'd yet, so by the time I do it will be way too early to test.
-
@Adira: Yup. I don't have a problem testing at work probably because I am crazy open and immodest, I guess. LOL. I have a glass Dixie cup that I use. I wash it out and then put the strip on top of the cup and walk back to my office. My grandma gave me some pretty sound advice when I was younger. She told me the world didn't revolve around me. Haha. No one notices me on my bathroom excursions.
-
@septca: could be later implantation?
-
@littlek: Could be. That's how I am explaining my intense 10-11 DPO cramps.
I am spending my nervous energy shopping. Baby Gap is 35% off today - woo hoo!!! (BTW, in addition to being a POAS addiction, I also hoarded baby clothes before I was KU. Yeah. It's a sickness.)
-
@septca: I am always tempted to buy baby things, but too afraid to before I'm KU for sure!
-
@HolisticMama: hahaha, that's awesome!!!
-
@Adira: I do the same thing as @Septca: did. I wrap in paper towel and discreetly look at it at my desk later.
-
@sarahnicole218: Thanks! I'm HOPING that I won't ever have to do this, but if this cycle doesn't work for me, then I'll have to use these tips!
-
@septca: I was tempted to buy some baby stuff at Target yesterday. I'm shopping for a friend's baby shower right now, and I want to buy everything for myself! I am refraining in fear of jinxing myself. But at this point, I don't own any baby stuff yet and it's still been almost a year. So maybe it's just the good luck charm I need!
-
@MrsMccarthy: I am so sorry about your boob monster. Will he take bottles? I have no experience in this, but I can offer lots and lots of hugs.
@mfa_lady: I used mine the first month after my MC, and it was reassuring to know I was ovulating. My cycle was long that month, so it was good to know what to expect.
@septca: Oh my gosh! That would be amazing!!! I am so hopeful for you!!!! have you googled your batch number?
I am obsessed with looking at baby things, but haven't bought anything yet.
Using OPKs, but line hasn't gotten any darker. I thought I would be O'ing tomorrow, but maybe not.
DH and I had a failed BD attempt last night, so I almost hope I O late. I am feeling pressured to hit O-2 due to its high success rate.
-
@Crystal: Ugh that's the worst. DH and I have had 1 failed BD attempt and it was awkward. We go for EOD because DH gets to stressed trying SMEP.
-
@Crystal: Ugh, sorry!!! Hubs and I had a failed BD attempt a week ago and it sucked! I hope you end up having better luck tonight (or whenever you try again) and that it works out timing-wise!
-
@septca: probably a broken record but my son implanted at around 11DPO and i had a pretty faint test at 15dpo, not a squinter but it was pretty faint. I also read somewhere that boys may implant later and show up on a test later. FX FXFX
-
@septca: Mine were still VERY light at 13dpo. Actually, they're still lighter than I expected at 11w5d. Fingers crossed!
-
@septca: FX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Okay, folks. Things are not looking good. Took a Wondfo when I got home today for a comparison. SUPER light urine, no hold. There's a line. It's faint and a total squinter, but it's there. So I am really inclined to think these Wondfos are bad. And that I should open some wine.
-
@septca: For what it's worth, I got darker results in the afternoons consistently, even with crappy hold times. Can you have your DH pee on one for comparison?
-
@septca: hmm maybe your husband should pee on one? That or maybe try dipping it in toliet water. if its an evap it may still show. I am not so sure i buy it that wondfos are bad yet. I know sometimes hope can make things harder so i am sending you big hugs and hoping that you enjoy your wine no matter what the outcome.
I am feeling pretty OUT over here too. I was hopeful for a bit but now i just feel like my body is doing exactly what it did the last two cycles. I got a tiny little yellow blob of EWCM mixed with sticky CM which is how it went the last two cycles and i am having some milk back pain which is usually a sign AF in on her way. I also noticed that i not only got only Highs and no peak on my monitor this month but the estrogen line continued to look pretty dark even at 3DPO when i used my last stick. Needless to say feeling a bit bummed. Oh well it's still only cycle 2. I am 5DPO today. All i can do now is pray that the vitex, extra B6 and modified nursing will give me a bit longer LP. I would be so happy if i could make it to Feb 24th ( my husbands birthday) without spotting or period. Lately i have been spotting at 6 or 7dpo then AF full on day 8. NOT GOOD.
What's up with all of today's testers??? any word?
-
@septca: Like @Torchwood: said, I also have been getting darker positives in the evening. This was back on 12 DPO, I'm 16 DPO now. Don't lose hope yet and put down that wine!
@MrsMccarthy: I got a blob of EWCM and yellow sticky CM yesterday! So maybe you're not out? Hope your LP is good!
@HolisticMama: How did your fair turn out?
-
So I have been super cranky and eating Tums like crazy for a reason. I am in shock. DH and I just sat and looked at each other for 20 minutes. He just kept saying he loves me. I totally didn't think I ovulated.... The positive line popped up faster then the control on both.
Don't even have words. I need to tell someone in real life besides DH. Holy crap! -
@MrsScottish: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!! That is such wonderful news.
-
@MrsMccarthy: I have only had fertile CM after O twice - the month I got my BFP with DD and this month.
-
@MrsScottish: OMFG!!! Ahhhh! I am just beside myself with joy for you! Please post a photo of your BFP! Have a happy and healthy pregnancy. Your Hubs has great intuition.
-
@septca: I have heard that and found it reassuring in the past but I had the same with my last two crappy cycles so I am thinking in my case it's just estrogen overload. I guess I'm not out till I'm out though so we shall see in about a week.
-
So the toilet water tested
. Too bad my husband isn't home so I can't make him pee on anything. He'd *love* that. (FWIW, yes, I 100% realize I am being super annoying. I am eye-rolling myself. The Bee is way too nice.
)
-
@septca: I don't think you're being annoying. This is what the Bee is for. Besides you're probably just a crazy pregnant lady
-
-
@MrsScottish: Congrats!!
-
@septca: I say KU. I don't think wondfos are that bad.
-
@MrsScottish: CONGRATULATIONS, LADY! xoxoxoxoxo so happy for you!!!
ETA: What a beautiful FRER line!
-
@septca: I can't bring myself to believe you're out yet. Try another FRER tomorrow morning or the next day! Fingers crossed, pretty lady.
-
@MrsScottish: HELL TO THE YES YOU IS!!!
-
@MrsScottish: That is *such* a beautiful line. Don't you
FRERs? Sending you so many hugs and good baby vibes! What is your EDD?
-
November 5 th I think !??
-
@MrsScottish: Congrats!!!! A happy and healthy 9 months to you!
-
@MrsScottish: congrats!!!!
-
This board has been really fruitful and we still have 9 more days.
-
Thanks ladies. I totally tested on a whim when I came home from work. Been feeling so off for the last 8-10 days. Heart burn, tired. Still has not set in.
-
@septca: did you test with FRER? I'd test woth FMU tomorrow. My guess is you'll get a
-
@MrsScottish: Congratulations!!! So happy for you!
. Too bad my husband isn't home so I can't make him pee on anything. He'd *love* that.
