Hellobee Boards

Thanks, everyone!

@Mrs.Panda: This was my first month trying using an OPK, second month not preventing. I'm kind of in shock and feel like I won't really believe it until I see the doctor especially since I'm almost 35. Estimated due date (I assume that's EDD?) is Feb 8, 2018.

@skiierchck99: Awesome!!

@JJ2626: is this #1 for you? Congrats! Make sure you join the Feb due date board when you're ready.

@Kemma: I'm sorry

@skiierchck99: looking good, mama!

@skiierchck99: Your numbers are looking great!

I took another first response and a wondfo this morning (what else am I supposed to do with all these tests??!) and neither one looks darker than yesterday. I had gone to the bathroom around 4:30 and tested at 7:30, so it's possible it just wasn't a long enough hold, right? It's making me so nervous. I'm really tempted to call my ob for betas, except I'm planning on switching practices for this pregnancy. I'm so nervous about a chemical, especially since I ovulated so late this cycle and I've read that can increase your risk of miscarriage.

@jodyblair: having taken way too many tests in my lifetime I think you should give it a little longer to darken! Fx!

Top is yesterday and bottom is today in both pictures.

@jodyblair: I think today's test will be darker once it dries.
I'd test with a Wondfo tomorrow and if you have another FRER I'd use it on Tuesday.

@jodyblair: If betas would make you feel better, I would go for it. But you are right, there is nothing you can do about it if it is bad. Having experienced more losses than I care to think about, I understand how nerve-wracking it is though.

@jodyblair: those frers look good to me! And wondfos just take forever to change. I know how hard it is to wait but fx for nice dark lines in a couple days

@jodyblair: If you don't want to go with your OB, you could just go to AnyLabTestNow.com and find a location near you. Each Beta is $49. Be sure to print out a $10 off coupon for new customers!

@jodyblair: In AZ our law says you can self-order any tests at any testing facility. I wonder if any other states have the same laws?

@DesertDreams88: In my state you have to have a provider order it. Any Lab Test Now kind of gets around it because there is a medical director who orders it, but you sign waivers.

@HappyBaker: Sorry about the BFN! Hoping it's just too soon for you. Good luck!

@Mrs.Panda: Waiting to o really does suck. I've never used that brand of OPKs, but the wondfos I used were pretty dark even without a true positive.

@2littlepumpkins: If I had any self control, that would be the smartest thing to do. Unfortunately, I don't. I'm really just trying to be positive and not think too much about it.

@2littlepumpkins: 11 dpo today. My period is due Wednesday.

@jodyblair: no expert but I think that looks as good as can be expected for 11 dpo just based on hanging around here and googling my last pregnancy!

@Coral: Yay! So cute!!

@Mrs. Oreo: That sucks, what the hell!
