@Adira: It's seriously hallucination-like. It's like an evap line, but it shows up immediately. Maybe I'm having one of those hysterical pregnancies...like the lady on Glee, lol.
-
@Dandelion: hahaha, well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Your FRER can't show up soon enough!
-
@Adira: When I ordered it, it said order in the next 8 hours (or whatever) and get it Wednesday! Then, today it says it'll be here tomorrow. Grr. Still within my 2 day prime, but still...I'm too impatient.
-
I'm kicking myself this morning. I woke up 30 minutes before my alarm, went to the bathroom and right back to bed. Didn't temp. So, of course, when my alarm went off 30 minutes later, my temp was higher than usual. I should've taken it when I first woke up. Ugh!!
-
@Dandelion: WTF - you have to wait until tomorrow?? So not cool!
Hopefully they're just over-estimating how long it will take and it will really show up today so you can test tomorrow with FMU!
-
@LindsayInNY: I have sooooo done that before! It's hard to remember when you wake up randomly and just need to pee!!! And then you're just like "Ugh, now I have to wait until TOMORROW to know what my temps are really doing!"
-
@LindsayInNY: Ugh, that sucks. This is one reason why I can't temp. DH gets up at 4:30 to get ready for work and I'm awake but not up during that time, and when he leaves at 5, I go back to sleep...so there's not a good chance for me to take my temp.
-
@Adira: I'm usually really good about it though - particularly on the weekends. I'll wake up around the normal alarm time, temp and pee and go back to sleep. I guess I figured it wouldn't be a huge difference if I waited. Of course it's almost 1/2 a degree higher than yesterday. So now I'm driving myself crazy - is my chart triphasic, did I ovulate late and this is really my post-O spike... UGH!
-
@Dandelion: I was just being lazy, figuring it wouldn't make a huge difference. Only to have a 1/2 degree jump. I use to take it when I would wake up, even if I was going to go back to sleep.
-
Now I'm obsessing over FF and comparing past cycles... Past cycles note spotting at 7 and 9DPO (once), 10 and 11DPO (twice) and 13 DPO (once). My last two cycles had pre-AF spotting starting on 9DPO. Today is 9DPO. This could be a good sign or simply that the B6 that I started this cycle is making a difference...
-
@LindsayInNY: fx! That is a good sign! B6 does help a lot. The lengthening of my LP has made me swear that I was pregnant. I have been POAS as soon as my period is late so that I know whether or not it is a "chemical" pregnancy......B6 does tricky things to my body.
POAS day is Saturday? Fingers and toes crossed twice!
-
@Claire.Peonies: I never spotted pre-AF before BC (ages 12-17 I was pretty darn regular which is unusual for that age!). Post-BC it started and got worse the last two cycles. I started B6 to hopefully stop the spotting/discharge and possibly lengthen my LP a little bit. My LP ranged from 10-13 days but was getting shorter by a day with every cycle, for some reason. Honestly, this TWW might be the worst so far. 9DPO and usually I would be spotting by now. Now? Nothing. No spotting/discharge, no real "symptoms"... Is it Saturday yet?!
-
@LindsayInNY: this is sounding good! I'll be thinking of you and a
on Saturday!
-
@LindsayInNY: Fingers crossed for you!!!
-
@LindsayInNY: Your chart is looking good! I'll be stalking HB Saturday morning, waiting for your BFP announcement
-
LindsayInNY: Ugh, I did that this morning too, got up early to pee without temping first. I hate when that happens! Although not as big of a deal for me right now early in my cycle, and my temps are up because of Clomid anyway.
Your chart is looking really really great though! FX that this is your month! Hopefully the B6 is working it's magic on your LP and Saturday and your BFP will be here before you know it
-
@sweetkeight: you're awesome. Totally adding your TWWD blog to my reader!
@Dandelion: Amazon Prime does that to me ALL the time, so annoying. I always get my hopes up that if I order in X hours I'll get my stuff sooner, and it never works. Come on FRERs!
-
@LindsayInNY: TMI question but do you still have a little creamy discharge? My BFP cycle I had some which I noticed for the first time ever. Like you, I made the connection that I was always dry after O.
-
@ladybee: I'm not @LindsayInNY: but I've been noticing it lately, but I can't remember how dry I was before hand.
-
@Dandelion: I remember thinking for the first time how gross it was that's how I knew it hadn't happened before
-
@ladybee: Just went to the bathroom and didn't see any today (yet). Had creamy the last 4 days or so. Not a ton, per se, but definitely enough to notice it. I don't recall usually having it but then I start to second guess myself!
-
@LindsayInNY: FX for you!!
-
@LindsayInNY: I feel like your TWW is even longer than mine! lol I'm in so much anticipation for you! Saturday is so far away!
-
Tomorrow I will officially be 10dpo so I should be able to test using a FRER. The million dollar question...should I test as soon as I am able to or wait until I am officially late which won't be until next Tuesday (assuming my standard 14 day luteal phase)?
-
@AlmostMrsG: Which is worse for you? AF showing up or seeing a BFN? For me, seeing the BFN was worse, so I always waited until AF was due to test. And she was ALWAYS so consistent in showing up, so I rarely tested while TTC, haha.
-
@Adira: I'm not sure, I've never actually POAS as I've always monitored my temps and they usually start dropping around 12dpo so I can tell when AF is coming. But I had my first IUI this cycle so now even more anxious than usual.
-
@AlmostMrsG: Then TEST!!!!! And if it's way worse than just seeing AF arrive, at least you'll know that. Though hopefully you'll see a BFP instead!!!
-
@Dandelion: This TWW has been the worst, not sure why!
-
@AlmostMrsG: Tomorrow is 10DPO for me too. Past cycles I've spotted before AF (basically right around now) but I started taking B6 this cycle to prevent it. I don't know if that's why I'm not spotting or for other reasons (trying not to get my hopes up). For me, I'm waiting until Saturday (12DPO) because I don't want to have to work after testing, either way. I'd rather wait till Saturday and either cry, celebrate, whatever.
-
@AlmostMrsG: I decided (I think) to test tomorrow, Saturday, and Monday or Tuesday, if I need. But who knows, if I get a bfn tomorrow, I may wait until Monday to test again.
-
@LindsayInNY: I did the same thing! I ALWAYS planned to test on a Saturday because I didn't want to go to work either disappointed or BURSTING with excitement! So I always planned to test Saturday morning. Of course, AF usually showed up beforehand, so I rarely got the chance, haha.
-
@LovelyPlum: I think that's a good plan. I was leaning towards testing tomorrow morning and possibly Fri morning. If I get a BFN both days then I'll probably wait to test again until Tues (if AF is not here).
-
@LindsayInNY: Last year, when I was in the TWW with S, it was agonizing, cause I was on vacation with my parents, without my DH. So, I couldn't test on vaca, and DH wasn't with me for me to vent on (he was in on the tww last year). It was the worst vacation I ever went on, cause I just *knew* I was pregnant and I wanted to be home with DH instead of where I was, lol.
Anyways, all that to say that maybe this is it for you!
-
@LindsayInNY: I'm starting testing Saturday, also. Though I'll be 9DPO. I don't think I'll be able to wait much longer than that...though it probably wouldn't pick up that early anyway. This is my first cylce trying, so I'm not sure what's worse yet..waiting of getting BFN. I guess we'll see soon! (though this TWW is dragggggggggggggging. I don't know how I'm going to get through these every month!) Good luck!!
-
Congrats to the latest bfps!! FX for more bfps to finish this month up!!
-
I can't wait to see more BFP's!!
-
@LovelyPlum: yea!!! Fx for you! This is great news! I see a
coming your way!! Please let us know tomorrow.
-
AH! So...I ordered the FRER yesterday and it was supposed to come today when I ordered it, which was convenient, cause I ordered cat litter than was coming today the day before and I was planning on being all "what? oh, it's cat litter" to DH when UPS came. But the cat litter is HERE and the FRERs come tomorrow and UPS doesn't come until 6 and the dogs bark when he comes, so there's no covering it up...like I said before, I just want to show DH the BFP and shelter him from all the nonsense that happens up until that point!
I'm thinking I'll just leave it on the porch like I forgot about it and open it the next morning.
Ahh!
-
Hey y'all... I've been MIA because I'm on a work trip this week but I keep checking in looking for more bfps!! Hope we have some more before the end of July!
-
@Dandelion: is it cheaper to order FRER and cat litter online? I didn't even know you could get cat litter online!
Hopefully they're just over-estimating how long it will take and it will really show up today so you can test tomorrow with FMU!
on Saturday!
