@SweetMamaM: boo! At least your cycles are looking normalish now! I am sure DH will love some bday booty lol
-
@MrsCastro: fingers crossed!!
-
Anyone else have to pee a lot in the TWW? Past couple days I've woken up multiple times a night to pee (which is very unusual) and keep having to go every couple hours during the day, too. IDK where it's even coming from! I haven't been drinking an unusual amount. I'm 7DPO and not sure if this could possibly be a good sign or if it's just really random.
-
@MrsCB: that sounds like it could be a good thing! when are you going to start testing?
-
@MrsCB: interesting
-
@mrs. bird: I'm trying to hold out until Monday. I'm away from DH, visiting my parents in FL. I fly back on Monday so I thought it would be great if I could tell him when he picks me up. I don't really want to find out and then have to keep it as secret or tell him on the phone. I'm really itching to test, but at 9DPO Monday's still pretty early. I'm just a compulsive POAS-er, lol.
-
I'm half way through the TWW here and am surprisingly not going nuts! I don't know if I'm taking it easy because I'm not too confident in our timing and don't want to get my hopes up, or if I learned my lesson last month. We'll see if I'm still this chill in four days...
@MrsCB ohh, that could be a good sign!
-
I think I'm going to write a full on post about this but my period has disappeared! It was pretty light yesterday and then when I got up this morning only had spotting when I wiped. Since then, nada. What the hell? Someone help, advice please!
-
I hope I'm not too late to join. I haven't joined one of these since November I think.
Current Cycle Day: CD21
Ovulation Date: TBD - Around Feb 4-5
POAS date/Usual Cycle Length: Feb 28/ 35-40 days
Cycles trying: 8
BD timing: Several days before and on EOD. And maybe day after, can't remember!
Plans for Valentine's Day this year: Taking my husband on a surprise date!
-
Oh and maybe I will add my tww symptoms: sore nipples, extreme fatigue (like sleeping maybe 18 hours yesterday)
-
@SweetMamaM: I had spotting for a few days before my bfp in august! I thought for sure af was here. How many dpo are you?
-
@SweetMamaM: strange!! was it very strong the first day? or possible not real period?
-
@anonysquire: welcome! What kind of date are you planning?
-
@anonysquire: never too late to join! i joined this one late too =) why you are waiting so long to POAS? the TWW is hard enough, that would be a 3.5 wk wait =D maybe you're much stronger than i am, i am a POAS weakling, i start like a week early, haha.
-
@MrsTiz: So it's actually kind of a weekend of festivity. Since DH goes to sleep at like 11pm I decided to pick up a 10pm-6am shift on Valentines so we will be celibrating the weekend instead. I like that better anyways because going out on Valentines is murder. So Friday he only works a half day so when he gets off work I will take him to his fav restaurant for lunch and then a movie. Then that night we have my parents bday party so nothing that night but then Saturday we will be going to his fav brazilian steak house place. Not too creative but oh well
-
@mrs. bird: Thanks! And I POAS late because I have long cycles so if I peed like 2 weeks after O date my period would seem late but really I would have a week left to wait. If that makes sense. Like last cycle I was like OMG I'm totaly pregnant cause my period is 8 days late, but really my body was just being its cute old self and having another long a** cycle. I hate seeing negative pee sticks!
-
@anonysquire: How are you confirming O? I have lonnnng cycles, but still a 14 day luteal phase. A 3.5 week luteal phase doesn't seem normal at all. Is it possible you're missing O?
-
@anonysquire: I'm same as @sslm, 35-40+ day cycles but 14 day LP on the dot
-
Ok so I caved this morning and tested and I *might* be able to see the lightest line in the world. If I squint real hard, lol. But I'm only 8DPO and I was up 2x last night because I have a cold, and peed both times. The 2nd times I was up was only 3 hours before I got up for the day, so my pee was really light.
In other symptom spotting, I'm super emotional. A YouTube video my mom's watching (among other things) is making me tear up.
-
@MrsCB: photo?!
-
@sslm: @runnerd: Very possible that I am missing O. I track it on my period tracker, and feel for CM and CP.... so ya, not totally reliable.
-
@MrsCB: Geez I'm so emotional too! I keep tearing up at like songs on the radio and tv and crap!
-
@MrsCB: omg, omg, omg!!!!! We need a pic!!! I'm sooooo excited for you!! What a wonderful valentine's gift for DH
-
@fussygal: my crazy kicked in the start of the second week.
-
@MrsCB: exciting!!!! Picture picture! And hoping for a definitive one by tomorrow!
-
@Mrs. Jacks: @mrs. bird: I'll try! I'm hanging out with my parents and trying to not be super conspicuous, lol. I keep disappearing to the bathroom for a"tissue" so I can look at it. I'm pretty sure I see a really really faint line but I'm not sure it'll show up on a pic. Everyone will probably think I'm nuts, haha.
-
@anonysquire: oh no, you should definitely chart or opk, I would think you're missing O. I've had cycles where I had cm and thought O was coming only to have it not happen or a couple of weeks later.
-
@sslm: Well I can't chart due to waking up different times everyday. I guess next cycle I will stark with the opk
-
@MrsCB: mine was SUPER faint on 9 or 10 DPO (not sure which day of 2 was O day) but my digi was still + that day! If you can, grab a digi
GL to everyone!!! GO POAS FEB!
-
@anonysquire: I think that sounds great! We're also doing a movie and dinner
You work the worst hours!
-
Ok, so I manipulated the pic and I think you can kinda see the 2nd line. I have a digi to use tomorrow morning, hopefully I can try hold it at least 4 hours overnight.
I don't wan to get too excited because I just realized it's possible it's from the hcg trigger. But last time it was gone by 8DPO and also I tested at 3DPO this cycle and the test was super light. Last time I starts testing out the trigger at 5DPO and it was still dark then. So hopefully it's a real positive.
-
Hmmm... I know pics are so much harder than in person. I don't know that I see a line, but I do know that your symptoms are very promising :). Digital here you come!
-
@MrsCB: i think that looks exactly like what a + 8DPO test (so early still!) would look like =) do you have anymore cheapies with you? maybe keep one in your pocket so you can duck into the bathroom whenever you feel like you've gone a while without peeing later today. i have a very good feeling for you!
-
@MrsCB: Dude, totally keepin' my fingers crossed for you. I just took a test this morning (11dpo maybe?) and it looks super faint if I manipulate it, too (I may have spent way too much time adjusting the contrast/darkness/invert...). Again, trying to not look into it at ALL because I think mine might be more of an evap/indent rather then a faint positive.
Keep us updated!
-
@ms.janedoe: do we get a photo of yours?
-
@Mrs. Jacks: I admit it's hard to see! It's easier in person, and when I play with the colors I can see the same spot change with the different effects.
@mrs. bird: I have no more cheapies, I only brought the one so I wouldn't be tempted to do it too early. But then I found a digital in my bag and caved, lol.
@ms.janedoe: Ooh, good luck to you too!
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Baaahah, nope, not yet. It's been contrasted/lightened/darkened so many times it looks like a myspace picture from back in the day. It's one of those where it's like, "Yeah, if you close one eye, squint super hard, and tilt the screen you can kiiiinda see it!" I'm going to give it a shot later tonight and tomorrow morning and see what's up...
Fingers crossed though! My best friend just sent me a picture at 7:00am, she had her baby last night/this morning (and reported that while she did not poop while pushing, she DID lose a giantly massive clot out of her pad the first time she stood up)...so there's a liiiittle extra baby on the brain today!
-
@MrsCB: I see what your talking about... 8 is so early that u wouldn't get much more than that anyways! I personally think the FRER pick up more than the wondfos early. I got 9 DPO positive with them.
@ms.janedoe: pic pic!
seeing anything is a good sign in my mind!
-
@MrsCB: I think being able to see the same spot changing helps
)@ms.janedoe: eagerly awaiting.I think the poas thread is so fun... Especially since I'm not planning on a bfp any more
-
@MrsCB: total lurker here... I see a faint line. So hard to tell from a pic tho. I got a super faint positive like that. You had to really squint to see it. I was a bit crazy and made DH take one so I could compare what a false looked like. Lol. Good luck!
I wanted to wish all you ladies good luck this month! My BFP anniversary is tomorrow! This thread brings back memories from a year ago.
