@MrsBrewer: Part of me wants to encourage you to stay strong and not test yet, but the other part me says do it! Ha, I'm no help!
-
@JennyG: LOL! I only have 3 Wondfo's left, 2 FRER, and 2 digitals. Okay, I guess that's quite a few. I just dont want to waste them if they're all
you know?

@MrsBrewer: I'd try to wait until tomorrow at the very earliest. I've never heard of a BFP at 7DPO.
I was going to try to stay away from this thread in attempt to not be POAS crazy, but turns out it’s inevitable. I tested today at 9DPO (possibly 8DPO?) and it was a BFN… which was discouraging as I got a BFP with my daughter at 8DPO. I have been terrible about symptom spotting… a couple days ago I could of sworn I was pregnant due to cramping/bloating/mood swings starting at 6DPO, but today I feel totally normal.
Cycle Day: 22. My cycles are usually 23 days, but I think I O’d a day or two later than usual this month, so I am expecting AF on Saturday instead of Friday. I usually spot for 2-3 days beforehand.
TTC Cycle #: 1
POAS date: BFN today...I’m trying to wait until Friday.
Baby #: 2
Your plan this month: Our timing wasn’t the best… I think 0, 0-4, 0-5. Or maybe 0-1 and 0-5. I wasn’t temping, so not sure about O date.
Chart link: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/38d09d/?i=5833836& (ETA: positive OPK on CD 12, nearly positive OPK on CD13... so not sure if O was CD 13 or 14??)
Fall activities you are looking forward to: Apple cider, apple picking, pumpkin picking, football, etc. -
@78h2o: Oh I know, I'm just REALLY impatient!! hahahaha My goal is to wait until Friday actually!
-
@78h2o: That sounds exactly like our timing this cycle too, we BD on O and then like 4-5 days before that. Hopefully it works for both of us this cycle!!
-
@MrsBrewer: hold out! I say Friday testing at the earliest... Fingers crossed!
@Mrsvdv: can't wait for your update!
My week has been good so far. EOD BD has been going great, and opks are slowly darkening, right on track for a positive tomorrow on CD 14. I'm ready to join the TWW already!
-
@Mrs. Microscope: Yay!!! That's awesome that you opk's are darkening!! Hopefully this is your cycle!
Okay Friday morning I will test....just with a Wondfo though, not a FRER
-
@MrsBrewer: this month I got BFNs until 14dpo...when I finally got my BFP it was still very light.
Hold out testing as long as you can
-
@78h2o: how exciting to see you ttc! Good luck!!
-
@Bigskygirl: 14?! that would be on Sunday! It's bad I'm soooo impatient!!
Did you have any symptoms before your 
?
-
@MrsBrewer: I was just popping in to see if you ended up testing. I think holding out until Friday is a good idea. No use wasting one when at 7dpo there's almost no chance.
-
@JennyG: Nope, I'm going to hold out I think. Wait till Friday at least. I would love to wait until the weekend, but I think curiosity might get the best of me hahaha
-
@MrsBrewer: I had no symptoms until about 20dpo.
-
@MrsBrewer: best to wait, but I wish I could take my own advice! I got a bfn yesterday at 8dpo. No will power.
No my strategy was to just wait since I don't have any tests at home. Funny thing, just got a bunch in the mail! I ordered them online and thought they'd get forever to get here (I'm in Canada) and fingers crossed I'd be knocked up by then. Ha! No they're just sitting there taunting me.
-
@Anutka: LOL!!! That's the worst when you have the tests at home!
-
@Anutka: @MrsBrewer: Ok, we need to make a no-testing-until-Friday pact.
@MrsMccarthy: Thanks, hon!
-
@78h2o: deal! I need someone to keep me in line
-
I tried to take a picture of the test I took this morning. The line has turned darker during the day, so I'm not calling it at positive yet...
ETA it looks darker irl than on my phone.
-
@78h2o: deal no testing till Friday!!'
-
@78h2o: @Anutka: Do either of you temp? if so, are your temps up?? This is the first time I actually confirmed I O'd with temps. I'm excited every morning when I see their still up!
-
@mrsvdv: I def see something. It's faint but it looks like it's there!
-
@mrsvdv: I feel like I see something. Did it show up within the given time frame? Fingers crossed for you.
@MrsBrewer: no, I'm not temping right now. It is neat though...I was temping when I conceived my daughter!
-
@mrsvdv: I see something but I can't tell if it's pink. Do you feel like it has color?
-
@78h2o: @travellingbee: it was there after 5 minutes but it got darker during the day. When I look at it it's pinkish but I agree it doesn't look like much in the photo. It's just so unusual for my period to be this late! I'm going to bed now but I'm testing again in the morning. If AF shows up tonight I'm gonna be pissed!
-
@MrsBrewer: I'd love to temp, but my 2yo still gets up once or twice a night, so I feel like I would not be able to do it properly and would just add more confusion!
@mrsvdv: I'm terrible at pee sticks. I hope you get a nice clear line tomorrow!! -
@Anutka: My 21 month old still gets up in the night a few times each week. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
I have a migraine right now, which often means AF is around the corner. Ugh! I guess it could be due to any hormones though...
-
@mrsvdv: very excited for you!
-
@78h2o: it's just cruel that pms and pregnancy symptoms are identical.
-
Checking in to say congrats to the new BFPs! September is already way better than August!
-
@angelachase: Definitely. August sucked! Hoping it stays good!
-
@mrsvdv: Did you test?????
-
@78h2o: good luck!
-
Finally got a blinking smiley face meaning the O should be coming up on Sunday. If that's the case, I'm out for September, but will still be around rooting for lots of BFPs.
-
@Anutka: @78h2o: Did you ladies stay strong and hold off testing today?? Remind me what days past O are you??
-
@MrsBrewer: I'm 10 dpo today. Didn't test, but I had spotting last night and this morning so I'm pretty sure I'm out.
-
@Anutka: Oh no! I'm sorry!
Hopefully it's just spotting and no period!
-
@MrsBrewer: thanks! I'm pretty ok with it, it's my first cycle, didn't have my hopes up. I'm still just jazzed about ovulating - took almost 2 years to get my period back pp.
-
@MrsBrewer: yes! I stayed strong. I'm pretty impressed with myself.
How about you??? I'm 10 DPO today assuming I O'd the day after a positive OPK. You are 8 DPO now, right?@Anutka: Ugh! I'm sorry! I hope it's not AF, but you have a greak outlook. It IS awesome that you are ovulating again! I am sort of jealous of the 2 years without a period, though I know it's no good when you're TTC. Were you nursing? I was EBF, but still got my period when she started solids at 6 mo.
I will be bummed if I get AF, since it has been a painful two weeks, without the ability to take pain meds following 3 dental appointments and several migraines...don't want that suffering to be for naught! But, if she does arrive, at least I will be able to take ibuprofen after my final dental appointment next Friday (Tylenol has not been cutting it). I also had to delay a routine mammogram since I didn't know my pregnancy status... if AF comes, I can hurry up and get it done and have that peace of mind.
@travellingbee: Thanks!
@mrsvdv: I hope AF stayed away.
-
@78h2o: Yes! I'm currently 8 DPO. My temps are still high so that's good!
It's weird because ever since O day, my boobs have been SO tender, and they still are. I held off testing this morning! I really wanted to, but I did't! I'm almost tempted to wait until Saturday when I'm 10 DPO....But I have a feeling I will break tomorrow morning and test! LOL
you know?
September Roll Call 
?
Hopefully it's just spotting and no period!
