Ok So I think this looks like a squinter? Hopefully the pic came out ok. It's what it looked like yesterday, both of which hadn't happened before then. I took a digital and it said negative so I don't know? This was definitely more clear for my first! Haha

@pmerr: Yes! Congrats! Yay!
@Banana330: But did your temp drop? I'm still hopeful!

@pmerr: I agree it looks like a squinted. Digitals need a certain level of hcg to register positive, give it a few days for a digital. Do a frer in the mean time

@shellio: it hasn't dropped it's about the same as yesterday. With my DD I had a pretty clear positive at 12dpo so I assumed it would be the same this cycle.

@pmerr: That's not a squinter!!! ETA: Digitals require higher level of hcg.
@Banana330: I'm sorry. I don't recall are you working with a RE, or your OBGYN?

@dc yoga bee: neither yet. Family Doc. Going to call for a referral soon.

Does anyone have experience with Wondfo evaps? I have taken ~20 negative pregnancy tests since my miscarriage... they went stark white (no evaps) and have been stark white up until yesterday. Suddenly I got 3 squinter/evaps last night from 2 different batches of Wondfos. I started to get a little excited, but a FRER was negative and then this morning they seem to be stark white again. I guess I just have to wait it out

@pmerr: congrats!
@Banana330: still holding out hope for you. sorry about the negative this am.
Ok. How do people have a second child? Seriously! We managed to BD cycle days 8, 11, and 13. I was hoping to do EOD this cycle, but the last two nights I have been way too tired, like falling asleep while trying to get LO settled for bed.

@jhd: tell me about it. We do it on fertile days then are so tired after those days we barely do it again for the rest of the cycle! Nap time on the weekends helps and sometimes we go for it right after we put DD down so we're not too tired at our normal bedtime.

@jhd: I'm still trying to figure this out! Once we pulled the goalie, and realized it was in the fertile window I wanted to try again. Unfortunately, not with a kid and life. So, we only BD O-1 or O,since I was doing opks. Next month, my in-laws will be in town during my fertile period. Great!

@Banana330: weekend nap time is a great suggestion. we haven't done that since we started TTC. Glad to hear we aren't the only ones. Life with a 2.5 yo wears me out! And of course this was Halloween plus some extra appointments for LO so we were extra busy.
@dc yoga bee: I'm not doing OPKs but guessing my window next month will be around thanksgiving so not ideal since we travel to MIL's. life does seem to get in the way!!

@jhd: It helps when baby #1 STTN. Ours is 3 years old, so he's got pretty good sleep habits (not that he doesn't have his nights), although we've always been lucky with that.

@Banana330: You're not at 12 dpo yet! Can't wait to see what your result is tomorrow. You know you're not out till AF shows!
@jhd: Seriously, I don't know how I'm having a 4th... Every cycle, my goal is every other day from about cycle day 12 forward, especially since I haven't been sure when I'll O, but... yeah, we're lucky to have 2-3 BD. I'm so freaking tired all the time!

Squintiest squinter ever (even in person), but I think there's a line? I can't believe it's this light at 11 dpo... Maybe I ovulated later than I thought? (haven't had a period since miscarriage, so it's certainly possible)
Definitely not trusting it yet, though
nectarine / 2317 posts
@peachykeen: I can't see it... but squinters are soo hard in pictures! Tomorrow will be better!
pear / 1648 posts
@Banana330: Haha, I'm only 80% sure it's there in real life, so no worries
nectarine / 2317 posts
@peachykeen: Don't worry.. I go back to my negative tests all the time and stare and stare willing a line to appear

@pmerr: LO is actually a really good sleeper he's just a night owl. I should try to take advantage of the time change to start getting him in bed earlier.
@Tionn3: sorry I shouldn't complain. TTC is just plain hard no matter what stage you are in.
@MrsD2442: good luck this month!!
@shellio: I can only imagine! I am exhausted keeping track of one!

@Banana330: you're still not out!!
@pmerr: congrats!!!!
@peachykeen: I am so terrible at squinters!

It's so weird cause this cycle I have ZERO symptoms, except for maybe a bit extra creamy/watery CM. The last few cycles have been crazy symptoms but it just goes to show you how annoying and strange our bodies can be when TTC.

@pmerr: Congrats, no squinting needed!
@Banana330: So sorry, fx for better news tomorrow.

I think I'm out... Was getting faint but visible lines on 3 different types of tests Thursday afternoon and Friday morning, but they seem to have faded and I didn't see anything on 2 tests this morning.
I'm taking it to mean my body wasn't ready for pregnancy again yet and hopefully my period comes quickly. I actually feel better knowing one way or the other and I'm using the energy to clean and organize our house
There's a chance I may be able to POAS again before the end of the month, so I'll stick around to cheer you all on
pomelo / 5132 posts
I think I finally got a positive OPK so yay!
@peachykeen: hopefully you can POAS again this month!

@peachykeen: Sorry about the BFN. Hope you have a chance to POAS again in Nov.
