@bluestriped bee: Thank you so much for keeping track of this! I think @oliviaoblivia is actually upping her POAS day to April 30th though, so she can test before her husband leaves for two weeks.

@Adira: Oh, must have missed that. Thanks, I just updated it.

@bluestriped bee: @Adira: Now I really do have to test on Monday. You girls are so on top of things!

@bluestriped bee: Thank you so much for this list! I'm so excited to see a BFP on this thread!
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
@eiko2010: I know! Someone is bound to have a BFP with this big list!

@bluestriped bee: Thank you, girl! I'm so happy we're all in this together...and there will most definitely be some BFP's that we'll be celebrating, i can feel it

Anyone else feel like the TWW is DRAAAAAAAGING?? I'm 9 DPO today and it feels like I've been in the TWW for a month! When will it be over???

With so many people on this list, we're bound to get a few BFPs. So excited for you guys!!
honeydew / 7504 posts
@Adira: YES! 6 DPO and I feel like it should be over! Probably doesn't help that I'm also counting down the days till vacation, ha!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@eiko2010: Oooh, vacation?? When do you go on vacation and for how long?? I'm so jealous! At least you have something ELSE to look forward to! If I can get excited about something else, it helps distract me from the endless waiting to see if AF shows up.

Lots of May 4th and May 10th!! Can't wait to see this thread blow up with everyone's BFP!!!
honeydew / 7504 posts
@Adira: We leave on the 3rd. We're spending a few nights with one of my high school besties in Peachtree City, GA, then a few nights in Savannah, GA. I can't wait! Definitely packing some HPTs and the "we're pregnant" gift I bought for my husband!

@eiko2010: We went to Savannah last year and we had so much fun!!
Eeek so excited for everyone! Hope we have lots of BFPs!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@eiko2010: That's so awesome! I hope you have a good time! AND it would awesome if you get a BFP on your trip!
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
I think the POAS list is distracting me during my TWW. I'm looking forward to checking up on everyone. I need distractions! LOL
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@bluestriped bee: Yeah! I'm excited to start seeing people's results! I hope there are a lot of BFPs this month! Only two more days until our first tester!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
OMG - there's a baby shower going on in our conference room here at work!!!
honeydew / 7504 posts
@Lilteacherbee: I'm so excited. I've always wanted to go to Savannah, and especially after completely falling in love with Charleston. From what I've heard, they are very similar.
@Adira: Thanks! Can I just tell you how hard it's going to be to NOT POAS on the 3rd before we leave???
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@eiko2010: Well..... you COULD, right? How many DPO will you be on the 3rd? I mean, you were planning on doing it the next day, right? You could just do it early!
honeydew / 7504 posts
@Adira: 13 days. I know, I could, but I TRY to hold off until AF is due or after. Don't like seeing the BFN.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@eiko2010: Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm the same way. I so desperately want to test THIS weekend, but I know that a BFN will just totally depress me, so I'm going to TRY to hold off until next weekend. Hopefully AF will stay away and give you a chance to test and see a BFP on your trip!

@eiko2010: does your temp dip before AF? If it stays high on D13, then that could be an argument to POAS.
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
@eiko2010: Ha! Only if smart is staring at your chart until it's memorized and being impatient, resulting in POAS even though you know that it'll be negative because your temp has taken a nosedive!
pomegranate / 3398 posts
I agree that the list is helping me focus on someone else POAS instead of stressing about whether I will get to or if AF will show.

@Grace: If chart staring produced BFPs I'd have eleventy babies by now.
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
@oliviaoblivia: I'm not following. Perhaps the chart staring is affecting my brain....
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@Grace: @oliviaoblivia: haha - she's saying that if you could guarantee BFPs by staring at your chart, she'd have a bazillion babies by now.
pineapple / 12793 posts
@Grace: Oh, just wishing that staring at my chart could actually produce something. I stare at it when my temp has clearly gone down and then search for charts with BFP after temp drop and also when it's far too early to test and look for charts with BFP before whatever day I happen to be on.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@oliviaoblivia: Ugh, I'm going crazy. I'm glad that I'm busy tomorrow and Saturday. Hopefully that will help me get through the days. Then Sunday I SHOULD start spotting IF AF is showing up. My temps were back up today but I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up... it's sooooooo hard though!!!!
pineapple / 12793 posts
@Adira: I hear ya. High temps are good! Any other symptoms to report?
I'm still feeling nothing. Temps were up a bit. Not much else going on.
Why is this tww so hard?
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
@Adira: @oliviaoblivia: Ah, got it. I'm going to blame my slowness on the mind-numbing paperwork that I am doing today. Can I go home yet?
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@oliviaoblivia: I'm sooooooooo scared of getting my hopes up too high. I keep trying to calm myself down, but my chart DOES look good! High temps and I've noticed minor cramping that I don't usually experience. Although maybe it's all in my head... I keep telling myself "This doesn't mean anything until we know what tomorrow's temps look like." But if my last couple cycles are any indication, AF is due on the 1st, I'll start spotting on the 29th, and my CM will dry up on the 28th. So I really only have to get through today and tomorrow and then I should start seeing the tell-tale signs that AF is coming. Of course, if I don't, I'm going to go bonkers!!!
Temps up are good! I really hope you get your BFP! And that I get mine! haha. I feel like this has been the hardest TWW to get through so far! Does that mean it just keeps getting harder???
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@Grace: haha, I don't know - what time is it for you? Is it time to go home?? I'm leaving here in 20 minutes and I can't wait!!! It's so much easier to distract myself from the TWW when I'm at home and can watch TV or read a book.
pineapple / 12793 posts
@Adira: I have minor cramps too. Like I did too many crunches (which isn't possible, cause I never do crunches). I think it's all in my head though. You are so close to the finish line! When would your temp normally go down for AF?
My temps usually stay high through 11-12DPO. Last month my chart was picture perfect - with a bid dip at 7dpo and jumped to triphasic high temps until the morning on 13DPO when it totally crashed. and now I'm here.
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
@Adira: it's 3:40, so I've got almost an hour to go still.
I like the sounds of your symptoms! But I'm with you, it's easier when your hopes aren't up so high. I hope you do get a BFP in the end!!!!!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@oliviaoblivia: Yeah, my cramps were similar, except I did do crunches so... oops. And they're really minor, so I'm not really sure. I mean, I notice it, but it doesn't really bother me, and then it goes away and then I notice it again later. So maybe I'm just making it up?
Ugh, my chart was PERFECT last month! I was sooooooo convinced. Although, besides temps, I have ZERO symptoms. but then AF showed up right when she was supposed to so... ugh!
My temps usually drop below (or around) cover line on 13 DPO and then the next day AF shows up. So I'll be on the look out for that!
@Grace: Oh bummer you still have another hour! The end of the days are always soooooo hard. And then all you think is "Could I be pregnant? What if I'm pregnant?? I don't feel pregnant but maybe I am!" Or is that just me?
And thank you!! I hope I see a BFP too!!! And that you do as well!
Sometimes it's hard being on these threads because you really get to know the other people going through the TWW with you and you just want yourself AND them to get BFPs. Every BFN is a disappointment almost as much as your own! I want us ALL to get BFPs!!!
