    TTC Cycle: 4 (with a CP on cycle 2)
    Ovulation Date: no idea.
    POAS Date: May 15
    Baby #: 2
    What's up this month: I've had long cycles since getting off bc in December, but the cycle post cp was almost 60 days, so that sucked. this month I added in acupuncture to our list of things we are trying!
    For Fun - What are you doing for Mothers Day?: I think my husband and toddler are taking me to brunch. My parents are actually in India right now, so I'm off the hook there!

    Cycle Day: 24
    TTC Cycle: 12
    Ovulation Date: 4/25/16
    POAS Date: However long I can hold out.
    Baby #: 2
    What's up this month: DH has started clomid for low count.
    For Fun - What are you doing for Mothers Day? Some alone time!

    So - first off - hello everyone and congrats to the BFP's. This is my first time posting to these boards - but I'm going nuts this month. (Chart link: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/5b593f/ )

    I've been feeling like I'm getting the flu for several days down - totally run down and feel feverish with no fever. I try not to symptom spot, but I've been doing it like crazy this month ever since I had lightening like cramps all day last Friday (4dpo). I've now added heartburn to the list that also included cramps, fatigue, headache (2 days now), tender BB's for almost a week, dizziness, sore thighs, lower back pain, etc.. I also spotted at 4 and 5 dpo and a little yesterday. I've actually made an appt to see my OBGYN on Thursday as I'm thinking it may be a cyst? Maybe not? I've never felt this out of it and ill feeling during the TWW. It's driving me crazy (did I already say that). I'm out of tests and ordered some from amazon this morning - and then went and bought some FRER's at lunch as I'm thinking about testing tomorrow - but I hate seeing that stark white area again :(.

    How is everyone else?

    Well I tested and it was I'm having AF like cramps now too so I'm pretty sure I'm out.

    @Kmringo5: I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you have better luck next cycle.

    @BLynn: If I were feeling the way you are, I probably would test... but I haven't had any real symptoms during the TWW since we started trying. How long are your cycles usually? I hope that you feeling like that is a good sign! I totally get not wanting to see the negative test though. I have stopped testing before AF is due for the same reason.

    @Shizaz I did test this morning, but all I got was what looks like an indent on the FRER. And.... to be honest I tested yesterday afternoon and could have sworn I saw a light line - even on an invert - but it's not there anymore. I have a doctors appt tomorrow for my cyst concern - and that will put me at 10dpo. Maybe she has some magic to let me know one way or the other lol.

    I typically ovulate between CD 16-20 and have an almost consistent 14 day LP. So I should no for sure next week - assuming my LP stays consistent. I was on clomid for one month because my body didn't ovulate for 2 months. Once I got on the clomid, it's like my cycle has been kicked back into normal gear. My doc think it's because of coming off of BC last April (I took it for 9 years). My chart does show a different BBT pattern this month - but I do try to not put too much stock into it.

    @KMRINGO5 - I'm sorry to hear about your test. Maybe next cycle.

    @BLynn: Okay, well I think that's good... At least the tests weren't stark white. I hope that's a good sign! I have my fingers crossed for you!

    10DPO in the morning. I'm trying not to feel optimistic since it's been a long 8 cycles. But as heavy AF and cramps returned last cycle, and I've experienced a few symptoms the last few days, I have a shimmer..... I had a VERY vivid dream where I was swimming and pregnant last night, lol. And I felt pinches three days ago on my lower abdomen which I'm trying not convince myself were implantation (they also coincided with the day my temperature had a sharp one day drop...) I MIGHT be going crazy over here.....

    Tested early today and so I really feel like I'm out. Conservative estimate would have been 12 dpo so I'm just gonna wait for AF. And do opks next cycle. I feel like we're missing something. Good luck everyone else!

    I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up. I took a test yesterday and this morning to stark negatives, but I took another this afternoon. You can 'clearly' see a line, but I can't tell if there's any colour to it. I think it's probably a bad test, but I've never seen the indent line clearly, and I look at tests from all angles with lights all over. If I put a light behind it, you can see it super well, but again, I don't know if it had colour. I have 1 FRER so I miiight use it tomorrow morning. I'll see what my cheapie looks like first. I feel like a crazy person staring at this test!

    I have no doubt that mine is neg, that I'm just waiting for AF. Breasts were heavy for a day or two just like my first and then not heavy at all. If AF is late (not on Monday), then I will test on Tuesday.

    So I grabbed a dollar tree test this morning while I was picking up some decorations for Mother's Day and just POAS'd...I'm not sure, but maybe maybe maybe I see something???? I'm 10 dpo...what do you guys think?

    @babypugs: I can see it (!) but it looks pretty thin? I would definitely go and get a FRER!
