@peachykeen: I agree with that! I've never had a pos at 8 dpo but every cycle I convince myself I COULD get one and test then become jaded and disappointed.
-
@peachykeen: Yes! And I also start thinking, even if I get a positive that much before AF is due, what if I lose it? Do I want to know about early losses? I genuinely don't know...
-
@peachykeen: I've never gotten a BFP before 13-15dpo, so it's all torture for me!!! I was in the I'm cool phase, then I'm pregnant, now I'm totally not lol
-
@knittylady: @@Banana330: @peachykeen: I usually start around 10, even though I know I won't see anything and it will make me nuts!
-
@Mrs. J: Ya I start around 9 or 10 but i've never had anything before 11dpo... but i'm pretty sure last time I didn't test before then either...
-
BFN this morning & AF due today!
-
@periwinklebee: root canal was a success thank you!!
I didn't do opk last month because we weren't actively ttc. I may pull out my fertility monitor for this next cycle, and reset it.
-
Period officially arrived, does it look like O was CD 23 or CD 25?
-
@snarkybiochemist: CD 23 I'd say...
@dc yoga bee: sorry about the BFN
-
@Banana330: at 12 day luteal phase is more normal for me, but I was afraid I was using that information to make an incorrect judgement on my cycle
-
@snarkybiochemist: My temps rise like that after O too..
-
@Banana330: mine don't always, last cycle it was a more defined spike and no EWCM after O
-
Aggghhhh officially missed period (due yesterday) and BFNs on FR & wondfo this AM. So frustrating!
-
@bizwitch: that's frustrating. Hopefully tomorrow reveals something or you could even wait an extra day and try the next (although as I wrote that I thought who would wait?!). Haha. Have you missed one before or been late since you have been ttc?
I got a pretty dark opk twice yesterday (though it wasn't as dark as the test line like last month) and then today it's a barely there shadow. Af due in 7 days though and I'm sitting here at cd 22 so I'm not sure what to think. It's looking like I'm going to have a cycle very close to last month's. Can't say I'm very optimistic. I've sort of given up this cycle and am waiting for a new one to start up.
-
@Petitduck: LOL yeah right. I'm picking up FRER today (turns out the ones I had were not early response) and will try tomorrow morning if AF doesn't show. The waiting is killing me! TWW is officially over but I still don't know!!
-
@snarkybiochemist: I sometimes have the same problem telling. If in doubt, I'd probably go with your typical luteal phase length to figure it out, as that I think tends to be fairly constant.
10dpo here. My luteal phase symptoms came back with a vengeance, which typically doesn't happen this late, but I started spotting so I think I'm out.
-
@dc yoga bee: Glad it was successful!
-
@periwinklebee: I was going with that. Obviously I'm not pregnant this time and when I see the RE on Tuesday I'm sure they will be ordering testing and such to make sure all of my cycle is normal
-
@snarkybiochemist: Good luck at the RE
-
@periwinklebee: thanks
-
I go for my first fertility acupuncture tonight. I'm kinda looking forward to it! I'm doing it weekly. The doc said everyone who's done it with her has gotten pregnant within three months! (not sure the sample size but i'm going with it!)
-
3/4 DPO here and after my ectopic last month every twinge and cramp terrifies me. Ugh.
-

Still no AF. Maybe my luetal phase is getting longer!
-
@periwinklebee: sorry about the spotting.
-
@dc yoga bee: That would be exciting!
-
@dc yoga bee: Thanks -
That's awesome that your luteal phase is getting longer, luteal phases can be such pesky things. -
@Banana330: i hope the acupuncture went well!
@periwinklebee: bummer about the spotting
@mrskansas: i'm sorry. that must be so stressful.
@dc yoga bee: that would be great!
this thread moves fast and i'm not always good at keeping up. but so glad to have you ladies to chat with! obsessing over symptoms here and hoping to hold out until at least Sunday or Monday to test.
-
5am, woke up and AF is here. On to cycle 19...
-
@bizwitch: Same here! Woke up at 5, and AF had started. On to December! Hopefully it'll be our month!
-
@bizwitch: @dc yoga bee: @Tionn3: sorry about AF ladies
-
@jhd: it was good. I have my ovulation session next week. It will be interesting to see what it does to my cycle
-
@bizwitch: @dc yoga bee: boo!!! I hope next cycle is it for you!
-
@Tionn3: I'm so sorry
-
@bizwitch: @dc yoga bee: So sorry,
fx for Dec. You all, my fertility app was driving me crazy yesterday. I go to enter my symptoms, I probably shouldn't bother, but data is good, right? I entered sore nipples, brown spotting - which aren't really typical symptoms for me but I find my PMS symptoms are different every month, just to play with my mind - and of course my app pops up notifications that these are common sigs of early pregnancy and implantation. Honestly, though, I think I just need a new bra...BFN at 11dpo this morning and AF should be here in full force soon, so I really don't think there's much hope, but then there's this little lingering doubt that's saying "maybe you shouldn't have a drink tonight, just to be safe", though that's going to make AF even more annoying when it shows up tomorrow morning..."
-
This cycle is weird and annoying. Normally I have PMS symptoms 1-2 days before my period starts and the first day of my period and then they go away. Not this cycle, the symptoms are worse on day 2 then the were yesterday
-
@snarkybiochemist: Sorry, that sucks. I hope you feel better soon.
-
@periwinklebee: thanks I just don't want to deal with this. I'm sick of feeling awful every month and not being pregnant
-
@snarkybiochemist: Meeee tooooo.
19 cycles. NINE. TEEN. F*ck!
This month I'm going to try acupuncture and a lot lot lot more meditation & magic. Like I'm literally going to cast a spell. Couldn't hurt, right?
-
@snarkybiochemist: @bizwitch: I hear you, I feel like when I came off the bcp but we weren't trying quite yet, the symptoms somehow bothered me less, but when you have then on top of not being pregnant, it makes it that much more annoying...
