Nice temp rise Michelle!

Thanks I am excited, I know for sure I ovulated this time because the temp rise, the cramps, and the fact that my nipples have super sensitive since 1 dpo. I can even feel things brush against me through a padded bra. I took the day 21 progesterone blood test today, curious to see what the numbers are, and to have 100% proof that I ovulated.

I'm sure you ovulated! I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

I forgot how unbelievably long the tww is! The place that took my blood, and the fertility specialist are saying that neither of them have my blood test results, so I guess the lab that tests the blood never sent the results to the fertility specialist. This back and forth is slightly annoying, but I know for sure I ovulated, so the results are really only important to my fertility specialist. I am sure it will all get sorted out. 9 dpo here and dying for it to be the 25th already so I can test! Still feeling weird aches and throbbing that feel like they are right on or near my right ovary, and my nipples are still sensitive, although not AS bad as they felt a few days ago. I am just glad I haven't gotten so dizzy I had to call in to work like I did last time I ovulated at around 7dpo.

I know you must have ovulated and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Did either of you ever get pregnancy brain? I don't know if I am just crazy, or if its actually possible I am going to get my bfp this cycle, but I can't put together coherent scentences today at all. I go to ask questions at work that I ask everyday and I can't think of the words to say, and the ones I can think of keep coming out jumbled. I also unlocked the ink cabinet at work, and when i was done stocking it i left the door wide open and the keys sitting out in the open, and walked away to do something else, like that was a normal thing to do. Mind you, these keys open up the cabinet to all our contract cell phones, the ipads, and everything else and I just acted like I was casually strolling around my house without a care in the world.

 

[Rachel789]

I say anything diff is a good sign!! I never felt like I had pregnancy brain but I know a lot of women do. Can't wait till you test

 

[ImSoTired]

Lol, Michelle. I did have some pregnancy brain but I can't recall whether I had it so early on? I very well may have as I'm still suffering from some form of it in 'baby brain'. Every once in a while I have a very slow thinking, forgetful day where everything is just foggy and as you said I have trouble with sentences, etc.

I hope you are on your way to a bfp this cycle! How exciting! If not now, very soon! My first symptoms were sleepiness and a surge of breast tenderness and then shortly after I began feeling the stretching and ligament pain from my growing uterus. That was scary as it felt like something was wrong when it was just growing pains. I think everyone is different especially as far as early early symptoms are concerned. I'm still routing for you and sending your way!

 

[Lovetoteach86]

Yeah, the pains I have in my uterus on the right side when I stand up or sit weird are strange, and slightly alarming, but I know that my body is going through a lot right now with all these hormones that are new to me. My body isn't used to ovulating, so even just ovulating alone sometimes produces weird reactions. I can't believe I am being so patient and not testing yet, but I hate seeing a big blank where the second line on the test is suppose to be. Right now that hatred is over weighing my impatience to know immediately if I am pregnant or not. On another note, my temps are still up, so that is always a good thing. If my temp doesn't start going down the next few days that will be new. The past few times I ovulated my temps started going down around 12dpo and got lower and lower until af showed up.

 

[ImSoTired]

Michelle I'm excited for you and hoping you get your bfp! I don't know how you're so patient! I'd be peeing on anything that resembled an hpt and analyzing lines or no lines until AF shows or doesn't. lol. Patience is a great quality for a mom though so you're ahead of the game! I'm hoping for you!

 

[Lovetoteach86]

I know! I had to pee the second I woke up so I didn't have any fmu for a test. If my temp doesn't plummet tomorrow I might have to break down, I don't know... This morning my temp went UP and I was freaking out, if it rises again something HAS to be up. Also my nipples have never ben sore from 1dpobuntil af before. The doctor said my progesterone level was 16.8 on cd21, they like to see 10 or above, so it was a nice strong ovulation and not just barely 10.

 

[ImSoTired]

That's amazing! My nipples were sore for about 38 days when I was pregnant. So it's a good sign that they are still sore! Or at the very least you had a great ovulation! Can't wait to hear good news!

 

[Rachel789]

Your temps are looking good. Can't wait for you to test!!

 

[Lovetoteach86]

I'm scared and excited at the same time! I want to go to sleep early just so it can be tomorrow morning already, except I am enjoying lounging around and not being at work right now.

 

[Lovetoteach86]

I'm freaking out over here! Couldn't go back to sleep. I had to pee very bad at 5:30 in the morning and knew that meant I had to poas or else I would waste my fmu, so I did aaannnnnnddddd... I SAW A FAINT BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sadly the line is so light that even though you can see it on the picture on my phone, when I upload it here it becomes nearly invisible. I am going to upload it anyways for you ladies to squint at and try and see, because that is just what we do on this site is it possible to get a false positive on a frer other than of course a chemical pregnancy? The line was definitely pink and not like a grey shadow, because I have seen that once when I glanced back at one after a few hours of it sitting in the trash. I can't wait for the lines to get darker!

 

[Rachel789]

I see a line clearly!!! Omg you got your bfp congrats hun!

 

[Lovetoteach86]

... That is all I have to say. Perfect emoticon for me right now. I have to go shower and try to stay normal at work today. I have to tell my coworkers soon so they know I can't lift tvs or heavy boxes, but I want to wait a few days until the tests are darker to say anything. If I can wait that long, some of them already know I am ttc.

 

[Rachel789]

Eeeeek!! So exciting!!!!! I'm so happy for you

 

[ImSoTired]

I can see it even in that picture! YAY! I'm so excited for you! I'm sure it'll darken up nicer in the next few days because it's still so early! Keep us updated, I'm so happy for you and I just know that you are going to have a happy and healthy nine months! There aren't false positives but evaps and that is no evaap as it's pink!

 

[Lovetoteach86]

Couldn't sleep this morning, I wanted to sleep hoping that if I poas later in the morning that it would be darker, but after my 5:30am temperature I laid in bed for twenty minutes and finally got up to poas since I couldn't go back to sleep.




The test are still uploading lighter then they look in person, but today's line is definitely darker! DH is scared to be happy, I feel bad because it's probably my fault. I am going to call the doctor today and see when they think I should come in for a blood test, hopefully that will make DH feel better. I think he is just nervous because it's still so early. I guess I should just be 100% positive around him and not prepare him for the worst case scenarios anymore because I don't want to squish his joy. That and the fact that he wants to tell his family already since 70% of them know we are trying by now. I would rather not tell everyone so early, but we hang out with them so often they are going to wonder about me not drinking at birthdays and trying to avoid all their smoke, since most of them smoke. I told him that if the blood test comes back positive and at a good level we can tell people, but that we have to make CLEAR that they are not to tell anyone else or post a single word about it on facebook.
