@snarkybiochemist: you got some will power! Especially since your last test was positive, I would have totally tested again lol. Fx!!

@tequiero21: I am cheap and don't want to buy more tests. Plus I know my husband will only believe a solid pink line and not a squinter. So I am giving myself my best shot of getting that.
honeydew / 7968 posts
@snarkybiochemist: yeah, my husband is not a believer in squinters lol. He's still like I should have waited to test once I missed my period.

@Banana330: have you tried looking at it near the sunlight? i'm looking at my old ones and *not in the sunlight, near the sunlight* i see the lines.

@tequiero21: I think i'm going to try and wait until friday (but there's a good chance i'll test tomorrow who are we kidding )
nectarine / 2180 posts
@tequiero21: So I will wait, with some amount of impatience, as I feel crappy today in the it could totally be either way

@Banana330: hello! I tested this morning at what I think is 10dpo (maybe?!) but it was a stark white BFN so am just waiting for AF this weekend. X

@Winnie13: Congratulations! My fingers are crossed for two super sticky babies!
@Banana330: I caved too, this wait is killing me! Nothing on mine though, I'm at 9dpo and I tested in the afternoon so it's not exactly a good indicator. I keep going back to look at it though because in case something shows up. I'll definitely test again in the morning. I got a positive with my daughter on CD 22 which is tomorrow but I think I ovulated a day later this time. I should probably go ahead and order more tests because positive or negative I'll be going through them...
@Tubbs: boo, 10dpo is still early though!
@snarkybiochemist: I'm impressed by your willpower too! How many dpo are you now?
nectarine / 2180 posts
@Cole: 12 DPO and the only cycle I ovulated I had a 12 day luteal phase so tomorrow at 13 DPO will either bring my period or a truly positive test
nectarine / 2317 posts
@Cole: It's nice to hear i'm not the only one this is driving crazy! BFN suck, but sometimes the not testing is worse. Ah I wish I had better willpower.
grapefruit / 4649 posts
@snarkybiochemist: I hope you update first thing then!
@Banana330: I agree! I just want to know so I can move on to whatever is next not that testing midafternoon at 9dpo is a great indicator...

Also, I love this board. I go away for only a day or two and come back to so much chatter - lots going on! And fx for everyone!

I had to tell someone, I am like seriously counting down the hours until I can poas. (13) I have been feeling nauseous and just yuck in general all day. I rationally realize that I get nauseous before my period too but it should be to early for that.. ugh, I'm putting way to much stock in this.

So excited to see all these BFPs! @Winnie13: Congratulations!!
@snarkybiochemist: I'm anxiously awaiting your test tomorrow - rooting for your BFP!
I'm stalking here and hoping to get the chance to test in October. My cycle is around 35 days now, longest ever for me, unfortunately I did not anticipate this and am just hoping I didn't O in the 10 or so day window that I would have missed any chance because of no BD I'll keep cheering you all on and hope to join you!

@Cole: go do something to take you mind off it. Something active or that takes concentration, I find it helps distract me a bit. (But I feel you, at work I'd find my mind wander and go straight for irrationally wanting to test)
nectarine / 2180 posts
@shellio: I'm anxious as well, fingers crossed
@Cole: I'm counting down as well, also feeling a bit icky and tired but also crampy so it's a dreadful combo

Ugh I'm only 4DPO and I'm already starting to have the " it didn't happen the last 5 months, so why would it happen this month?" thoughts. Seriously hoping that my earlier that normal ovulation was a good thing, and maybe this will actually be our month.

@Tionn3: thanks I waffle between hopeful I'm pregnant and sad I'm getting my period or had a chemical
nectarine / 2180 posts
Thanks for all of the support everyone, unfortunately my period arrived overnight. At least I didn't have to waste a test for a negative! While I am bummed my period is here, after having a 95 day cycle and a 60 day cycle and inducing with provera I am super excited I ovulated for the first time since March and thus am getting a period. Hopefully this trend continues for me.

@snarkybiochemist: sorry about AF, but it sounds like your cycle is moving in a positive direction.
grapefruit / 4649 posts
@snarkybiochemist: I'm sorry to hear that but I'm glad it has a silver lining.
I am spotting again and had a negative test this morning so it's looking like I'm out too. With ovulating early I'll be curious to see when my period actually comes. My daughter has been sleeping terribly so not adding pregnancy on to my exhaustion is probably a good thing.
nectarine / 2180 posts
@Banana330: @Cole: Thanks guys
I am at least pleased with the ovulating bit, and now the batch of triple chocolate brownies has even more of a purpose
nectarine / 2317 posts
@Cole: ugh sorry about the BFN and spotting.
I had a BFN this morning too. Its only 9dpo but I was really disappointed. This month i've felt no symptoms which is super different to the last two months, which made me hopeful.
cherry / 187 posts
@Tionn3: I totally understand. I don't even think I've ovulated yet but I'm already thinking how I'm sure this isn't going to be our month. I think I'm just getting used to BFN's now that I can't imagine actually getting a BFP.
@snarkybiochemist: I'm sorry AF showed. Good news about your cycle though. Hopefully that continues for you
@Cole: Sorry about the BFN
So to follow up on my almost positive opk from two days ago - I tested again that evening and it was very negative. That doesn't surprise me though, as I've only ever gotten a positive in the mid-morning time. So I took another one yesterday and it looked exactly like the picture I posted the other day. Very close to positive but not quite. I guess we'll see how it looks today. Judging by my cm and almost positive opk's, I feel like I may ovulate early this month. I wonder if acupuncture has anything to do with that..

@Banana330: Sorry about the BFN, but 9dpo is very early. Don't give up hope yet
nectarine / 2180 posts
@BeatlesFan629: Good luck getting a positive OPK, they can be so tricky
nectarine / 2317 posts
@BeatlesFan629: Are you temping? you could be having a long surge, I have in the past gotten 2 days surges. Maybe your urine was diluted yesterday afternoon.
nectarine / 2317 posts
@BeatlesFan629: Thanks the plus side is my temps went up today, which is promising... but could also just mean I was hot this morning
cherry / 187 posts
@Banana330: Yes, I'm temping. I've only been doing it for a few months so I'm still learning. My temp went up this morning so I guess if it stays up, it could mean I ovulated yesterday.. But my temps do tend to go up and down a bit in my follicular phase. I think I sleep with my mouth open lol
nectarine / 2317 posts
@BeatlesFan629: my temps are always a bit erratic too.. but you will see a clear shift after O usually. Just keep up with the BD until you know fingers crossed!

AF arrived last night for me - I was actually relieved, no more limbo and on to the next cycle! I've gotten all my BFPs at 8-9 dpo so I'll still be POAS in October, wish I could temp so I would have a better idea of O date. (Up overnight with baby.) @snarkybiochemist: @Cole: Sorry Maybe we can all be Halloween POAS buddies!
nectarine / 2180 posts
@shellio: If I ovulate again, I'll be a late October early November POASer. Fingers crossed that ovulation continues

@snarkybiochemist: Ugh, I'm so sorry =[ At least you were able to find the silver lining. I hope your cycles continue to even out, it seems like they are on the right track.
honeydew / 7968 posts
@snarkybiochemist: was really hopeful for you. Hope you get good cycles from now on!
@shellio: @Cole: hope u guys can join us at the end of the month!
@Banana330: I didn't get a solid line until 10dpo, so fx really hard!
