Ugh I am out. I still have high temps but I started spotting last night. CD22. I'm so frustrated!
Good luck everyone! -
Ok. Now I'm officially confused....
-
@JENNKAM: Why? Do you have an update for us?
-
My temp went back up today, cramps and sore boobs weny away, but another BFN this morning. <scratches head>
-
@JENNKAM: When's AF due? Fingers crossed for you.
-
@ali: today, and while I'm never late, just early, the day's not over yet...
-
crossing fingers for you guys!
I'm very crampy today, have sore upper legs, and of course my monthly zit has reared its ugly head - so AF is doomed to come soon.
-
I'm normally not a symptom-spotter at all, but for some reason this month I can't get all of these things out of my head! I've been feeling period-like cramps for the past few days (which is unusual for me - I usually only cramp *during* AF, not before), but just figured that meant my period would be here any second. It's not yet, but I am not planning on testing until the 14th, so there is still plenty of time. (I had literally two small drops of blood in CM on Saturday and of course my first thought was Implantation Bleeding! - but it was light pink and seriously two small drops; everything I've read about IB has been brown and more volume than that. So I went on with life.)
But... I've also been feeling warmer than usual the past few days. I just chalked that up to being caused by us turning off the a/c and opening up the windows. It's a few degrees warmer in the house than when the a/c is on (although much cooler at night).
So the cramps and the slightly upped temp had me a little suspicious, but I thought there were *other* reasons for them, and I did not want to get my hopes up. This is our 7th cycle TTC and I know how devastating it is when you get your hopes up and then AF or a BFN shows up.
But then this evening I started to eat my dinner and I had to spit out a strawberry because it tasted absolutely VILE... from the same quart of strawberries I've been eating the past few days. I made my husband try one and he said it was fine.
Now I'm a crazy woman googling "when do taste aversions start in pregnancy"... ! (And now that I've posted this, I'll probably wake up to my period tomorrow.)
I wish I could be one of the people who get 'accidentally' pregnant so that I wouldn't have to live two weeks of every month as a totally deranged, paranoid psycho. I'm just glad places like Hellobee exist so I can ramble and rant and know that you all totally understand! (or at least I hope so).

Thanks ladies (hope that mass-tag worked)
This is baby #2.
I was on cycle 2. Cycle 1 wasn't charting (just BD-ing!) but I downloaded an app and paid attention to what was happening during cycle 2. We were probably BD-ing every 3rd-4th day all month and whammo! One of them stuck!
I had crazy bad cramping yesterday morning so I was really worried that my body was rejecting but since then all seems back to normal. THANK GOODNESS. *knock on wood*
-
@Mrsnana: Not to be a pessimist (because I'm really not) but I was totally you last month, with many similar symptoms. I got heavy cramps 9dpo that continued throughout my cycle (and I'd never gotten those before). I was also very warm, and the taste of mouthwash all of a sudden tasted really weird. But sadly, my cycle lasted a few days longer than normal just to get a BFN and finally AF. I really hope it's the opposite for you and it very well may be! I just wanted you to know that we all get crazy symptoms and go wild with hope. It's totally normal. Wishing baby dust for you!
-
@Icebergmom: So jealous of your 2nd cycle BFP! Congrats again.
-
Thanks @ambular1025. I am still breastfeeding LO so I am totally shocked that I was ovulating. And so happy!
Wishing happy (and quick) baby success for you!
Oh, and someone asked me if I told DH. Yeah, I'm the worst secret keeper. I basically took the test and ran outside to show him. It was SUPER FAINT the first day. I waited two days later and the second test had a very obvious PLUS shape. Yay.
-
Hi ladies! I've been MiA since we left on vacation and I only have my phone on me to check in...anyways, I took a wondfo today (not charting, est 11DPO) and there is the faintest of faint lines. I can't tell if it is an evap or not. How do I post a pic?!
-
Yay! Faint is good!
-
@maybebaby: if you are on your computer, there should be an "add photo" link when you post. If you're on your phone, there's a small link at the bottom of your post that reads, "email attachments". Click here, and paste your photo into the email and send! Make sure to send it full size, I had issues with that on my iphone (I tried to send smaller and it uploads distorted).
-
@Maybebaby: Ooooooh! Any line is good.... *squeal!*
-
@sorrycharlie: thanks! Thoughts?
-
Dude..I think that's a BFP. Do you have a digital around?
-
That looks like a BFP to me!
-
@JoJoGirl: I do! Just one...should I wait for FMU?
-
@maybebaby: Hehe, can you wait til then!? I don't know what time zone you're in, but some people actually think second MU is better than FMU.... if you haven't gone again yet, you could try?! I dunno.. wouldn't want you to waste the digital but I wouldn't be able to wait!!!
-
@JoJoGirl: I have already gone
mountain timezone. I'm feeling like it is not real and would want to be able to tell DH once I know, do waiting until tomorrow would allow me to come up with a cute way to tell him.
-
@maybebaby: Definitely wait then!
-
@maybebaby: Def a bfp! Congrats!
-
@Maybebaby: Congrats if it's a BFP. Sweet that you're waiting for DH to test.
-
@jholler25: @ambular1025: Thank you! I will update tomorrow when I retest...this feels absolutely surreal!
-
Ok, I couldn't wait and went out and bought a FRER. Thoughts?
-
@maybebaby: doooo iiiiiit
-
@Rachel: lol--on my iPhone, figuring out uploading keeps confusing me!
-
@maybebaby: ah! totally and completely positive!!!! Congrats!! Have fun telling your DH
-
@Rachel: thank you!! I don't feel like it's real!!!
-
@maybebaby: KTFU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!
-
@maybebaby: Congrats!!!
-
@maybebaby: Yay!!! Congratulations!!!
-
@Maybebaby: OMG! Congratulations!!!!!!!!
-
@maybebaby no 'maybe' about it!!
-
Eek! Positive for me! 2 positive FRER tests, 1 positive digital and a quant HCG at the doctor today at 51.5! They also checked my progesterone due to miscarrying the last two pregnancies and it is 24.0, they said this is a good level. I go back in 1 week to have anther HCG level done to see if it is going up properly. Hoping this one sticks!
-
