TWW - POAS - Early May

    @Mrs.Someone: Aww, I'm sorry you are out. Yeah, I would recommend those Amazon strips. I've used them for the 3 months now. There was one month where I O'd late and FF was wrong (probably stress related). As for the other months, FF was right one but I'm still glad I got the strips. I got the pack that came with OPK and pregnancy tests strips.

    @eiko2010: Oh, exciting signs!

    @Adira: Yeah, I finally started thinking about my TWW now. I'm only on 7 DPO today. I've noticed that I've been really moody the last couple days and I had cramps 2 days ago. It would be really early for me to have PMS symptoms. Of course I then asked Dr. Google and found this: http://community.babycenter.com/post/a21728613/for_those_who_have_gotten_bfps_before....

    I'm probably overthinking my symptoms like I always do. Maybe it's not moodiness, maybe it's just me being really annoyed, stressed and bitchy with the DH.

    @bluestriped bee: Ooooh, moodiness and cramps could be a good sign!!! It totally sucks that there's no way to tell this early if it means anything or not! I'm really rooting for you! I hope a lot of us get BFPs this month!

    ETA: I think I'm probably out, but I'm not positive. I think I've started spotting, which is usually indicative of AF on her way. It's light and subtle, so I'm not positive, but I'm not feeling very hopeful.

    @oliviaoblivia: @adira: @grace: @bluestriped bee: Thanks, ladies!

    @adira: I'll keep thinking positive thoughts for you!

    @bluestriped bee: Isn't it so annoying that these signs could be really good, or could be absolutely nothing? So frustrating! Will keep my fingers crossed for you!

    I'm so jealous of you girls with symptoms! Usually my boobs hurt but this time I nothing. I have a feeling you'll be finding me in the June group soon.

    @oliviaoblivia: unless you will be one of those women who have no symptoms when they actually are pregnant.

    All signs point to Period at this time. It hasn't happened yet but regardless of being nauseous consistently I have all signs of AF and know it's not my month. Looks like I'll be at the end of May group. Blah.

    Lots of luck to the rest of you wonderful ladies!

    @Crisark: I'm so sorry to hear that! You're not until you're out, but I know what you mean about being pretty sure. I'm hoping you're wrong though!!!

    My temps are dropping, so I'm pretty sure that I'm also out. AF still isn't due for a couple days, but my temps are not looking good, so... guess we'll know for sure in a couple days, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Big temp spike. Yay, I believe O has occurred. Officially waiting.

  13. oliviaoblivia

    pineapple / 12793 posts

    @Adira: @Crisark: AF hasn't arrived so you are both still in it. I've seen all sorts of charts with temp drops at 14 DPO and BFP a few days later.

    I'm off to drop dh at he airport. I thought he left Tuesday, but I'm stupid and totally botched the international dateline. He gets there on Tuesday. Ugh. I'm still waiting to test. We talked about it and I'm just going to the him the good news, or the bad news when he gets back.

    @Jumpingjacks: Good luck with your TWW!

    We should have results from our first few testers coming in soon. Baby dust to all those testing in the next few days!

    @Adira: @oliviaoblivia: I have my "period pimple" and crankiness. Also, took a first response last night that says it can detect 6 days early and got a BFN. I'm pretty sure it was right no matter how much I want to tell myself it could have still been too early. I'm only 3 days til AF.

  15. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    Ugh, I'm spotting today. I'm pretty sure it's over and thinking AF might even arrive early. I know I'm not out until she officially shows up, but it definitely doesn't look good. I'm feeling pretty bummed because I really felt like our timing was really good this time... I'm thinking maybe next cycle we'll try pre-seed though.

    @oliviaoblivia: Booo! Sorry to hear your hubby's gone already! Do you think you'll still test tomorrow? Or now are you thinking you might as well wait since he's already gone already?

  16. oliviaoblivia

    pineapple / 12793 posts

    @Adira: I'm so bummed you're spotting! I was really hoping this was the month for you. I think we'll try pre-seed next month if last month didn't work.

    I'm going to wait to test. My temp was up this morning, higher than earlier in the wait, if it is still high tomorrow I may test Tuesday. Testing freaks me out.

  17. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @oliviaoblivia: Ooooh, high temps is a good sign!!! I hope they stay elevated for you! I really hope this is the month for you and we won't both have to be in the Early June thread.

    @Adira: So bummed you're spotting. I was really hoping this ws your cycle!

    @Crisark: I hope the BFN was just testing too early!

    @Oliviaoblivia: Ooh, high temps! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

    My bbt dropped a bit this morning, but it's still higher than it had been. My boobs feel a little sore (left more than right, weirdly). Otherwise, still not sure where I'm headed.

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @eiko2010: Ooooh, sore boobs is a good sign I think! And it's good your temps are still up. Hopefully this slight dip is just that - a slight dip and they'll stay elevated!!!

    @eiko2010: Thanks. I don't think it was but who knows.
    @oliviaoblivia: Yay your temps are high!!
    @Adira: Spotting doesn't always have to mean AF. Maybe you aren't out! *positive thoughts!*

    @Adira: Really dumb question, sorry, but when you say "pre-seed" what does that mean? Thanks

  22. oliviaoblivia

    @eastcoaster: Pre-seed is a sperm friendly lube esentially. It mimics cervical mucus and helps sperm get to where they need to go.

    Ok ladies. 13DPO temps still up. If I cross my fingers any harder they'll break. I caved and tested yesterday afternoon (after DH left, cause I'm stupid) and got either a super faint positive or an evap. I then carried it around all afternoon and looked at in all sorts of light. I should just go get a digital. Freaking out here.

    @oliviaoblivia: That sounds really promising! I would definitely go get a digital if I were you.

  24. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @Crisark: Aww, you're so sweet! Temps dropped way down today so I'm pretty sure AF will be here right on time tomorrow. Maybe I'll have better luck next cycle.

    @oliviaoblivia: Eeeeeh!!!! I'm soooooo excited for you!!! Definitely go out and get a digital for tomorrow!

    @oliviaoblivia: OMG, I'm so excited! Go get a digital one!

    So I was going to hold off to post until I saw the dr today to confirm but I've taken six pregnancy tests since Saturday and they are all POSITIVE!!

    I'm having some very light spotting which I know is common in early pregnancy, but has me worried so I'm going today to get my levels tested. The pregnany tests have been getting progressively darker since Saturday though and even the first was pretty dark. Cross your fingers for a healthy baby!!

    @Adira & @Crisark - Sorry to see it didn't work out for both of you this month! I hope we all have happy news soon!

    @arielle9510 & @oliviaoblivia - Yay, so exciting!! Happy to see some good news coming through over here Hope all goes well!

    @arielle9510: Yay!!!! Congrats!!!!

    @Mrs.Someone: @Rubies: @Adira: @PBandBaseball: I'll try to pick up a digital today, but I have to work late, hopefully the pharmacy is still open! I'm going nuts. It's totally an evap. I'm freaking out for nothing. Whaaaaaaaaaaa.

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @oliviaoblivia: Hey now, your temps are still up, and you said they usually drop before AF shows up! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! I think this really might be your month!!!

  31. oliviaoblivia

    pineapple / 12793 posts

    @Adira: that's true. I've never had a high 13dpo temp. But I was thinking FF might be off by a day in which case I'm 12dpo and then it's normal to still be high. This day will never end.

  32. oliviaoblivia

    pineapple / 12793 posts

    @Adira: And I'm bummed you're out this month.

  33. Adira

    wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts

    @oliviaoblivia: haha, I hope AF being off isn't the case!!! It sucks that you're going to have to wait until tomorrow to find out! Hopefully you're super busy at work and the day flies by!!!!

    I'm bummed I'm out this month too, but I definitely learned a lot this cycle. Now I know that all these symptoms (cramping, fatigue, moodiness) don't mean anything for me! And I think I'll try pre-seed this next cycle and I'm going to aim for 4 consecutive days of sex instead of just 3, haha.

  34. PBandBaseball

    clementine / 861 posts

    @arielle9510: Yay!! That's so exciting!!

    @oliviaoblivia: Stay positive! If your temps are still up there's a really good chance that it's not an evap line.

    honeydew / 7504 posts

    @arielle9510: AHH! Yay, so excited for you! Crossing fingers that the test turns out good!

    @oliviaoblivia: OMG! Go get a digital, girl!

    So happy to see some happy news on this board!
