@septca: I doubt I will be able to get DH to take it, he can't stand many sweet things. I will definitely take it if this cycle doesn't prove eventful.
My brother's wife is going to be induced on Wednesday if she doesn't go into labor. So exciting but also kinda bittersweet. But mostly exciting!!

@wonderstruck: I've actually heard that early on sometimes testing at night works best. Definitely the case for you! Congrats again!!!!

So I've got this new thing going for me. It's really awesome. Where I wake up in the middle of the night for two hours.... and then go back to sleep for two hours to get in my wild dreams.
:: sarcasm ::
(Last night I dreamt that the family wore all of the same outfits today to the funeral I am going to. Weird).
And I was musing...
Why do certain embroys make different levels of HCG? Is it okay if the levels are low to begin with?
I haven't researched anything yet.
But a voice in my head answered: "Because life isn't a factory," which seemed like a very insightful answer.
But I just found this: "the normal range for a 4 week pregnancy is between 5 and 426 mIU/ml,"
That range is RIDICULOUS!

@wonderstruck: woo hoo, congrats! First of February?
I always stayed away from these poas boards cuz it took us so long to have our kids. But I was keeping up with the January board for the first time and I really enjoyed it! I really liked how everyone rooted for u, was disappointed with u. Lol this is a very supportive and fun board. Fun when u see a bfp!

@littlek: ugh...it's like I knew it would be, yet did it anyway. Silly! Trying to make myself hold off until tomorrow or Monday. My temp is still up....stupidly hoping that's a good "sign?"

Be sure to post any more pics you take

@ChiCalGoBee: I think I'm going to hold off until AF shows. I hate BFN.

@wonderstruck: GREAT news! What a delight to see BFP on the Feb board!
Ugh so I don't think I O this early, plus I only started seeing CM these past 2 days or so. But my temp took a huge dip, and now I'm worried that I O'd and didn't BD enough! It was CNY so we were at my in-laws & then my parents Thurs & Fri, so we were exhausted.
I also don't feel like wasting an OPK if I already O'd... Why are my signs so confusing!

Happy February y'all!! Let's make the shortest month of the year full of the most BFPs in 2014....:)

BFN for me today at 10 dpo. Pretty much as I expected though, I've had zero symptoms except some really lovely zits, which always tells me AF is on her way. I know it's still early, but I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnant. Only a tiny bit disappointed, I should have another shot at POAS at the end of the month.
@wonderstruck: Congrats!! Great way to start the month!

@wonderstruck: did you retest today? Darker? I'm impressed and happily jealous you got a BFP on 9DPO!
nectarine / 2358 posts
Need some advice! OPK is a little darker today! Almost positive. But I think I may have missed my surge because last night my cervix was softer and high and now it's low and firm. I drank like a TON of water at work last night so I think it may have diluted the sample and maybe made me miss the surge? I don't temp. What do you ladies think? Sorry the pictures ate a little dark.
ETA: the top picture is just a trend of what I've been doing (testing 2 or 3 times a day) and the fourth from the bottom was last night at 11 followed by 2 diluted ones when I got home at like 8 am and noon today. Bottom one is from 5pm.

@littlek: no. I keep "checking" to see if my period has started (I'm CD 28), and keep doing a happy dance whenever I see clear CM instead of brown/red. My promise to myself is if I wake up to no red tomorrow (FX FX FX!!!), I'll test then. It will be CD 29 and 10 DPO.
Only (probably faux) symptom today is I'm only cramping on my left side, and it isn't even that bad. I can def feel it, though . I'm relatively certain I Od on that side (had painful mittelschmerz on that side pre-O). I assume that means my period is coming? Gah, the wait!!!
Any news on your end?!

@Mrs.Panda: I'm no OPK expert, but the bottom one from 5 PM looks pretty positive to me!
nectarine / 2358 posts
@ChiCalGoBee: I marked it as positive even though it's not quite there because I feel I may have missed it from all that dang water! And my cervix is firm and low so I wonder if I already O'd or if it will go high and soft again? We BD'd last night and today and will for the next 2 days to be sure, so I think we will be covered if in fact it is O! Then my progesterone test on Wednesday will hopefully confirm?
