Tina: Aww, was feeling impatient already on our first cycle! So I feel you! When you're ready you're just READY! Have hope! This seems like a lucky thread so hopefully you'll be next!
I found using OPKs SUPER helpful! That combined with temping helped me to pinpoint my exact O day this cycle.
cupoftea:It is very VERY surreal, I barely believe it yet. I do want to just tell everyone in sight, which is why I'm glad I have all of you! Keeps me from telling literally everyone. Although I did cave and tell my mom today. We're pretty much best friends so it was hard to keep it from her when I saw her today. She was overjoyed and also apparently had a dream about me having a baby the night I first got a positive test. How wild is that? AF is due friday, so still feeling cautiously optimistic. Only time will tell...
Today my test was definitely darker than the two days prior. I'm basically just continuing to test hoping for darker and darker lines. Spending entirely too much $$$$ on FRERs.
Also, today I also experienced some cramping in my very lower abdomen into my upper thighs even. Not really like AF cramps for me, more like burning and twingy if that makes sense? What do your cramps feel like Babydust? Like AF or different?
And I also actually had a very teensy bit of spotting. I never would have noticed except I check my cervical fluid/position every day and noticed a tiny bit of pink on my finger (sorry if TMI!). I know that's normal but it still made me a tad nervous. Boobs are still kind of sore but nothing too intense. Temp continues to rise.
I think I'm going to try to make it to a walk in clinic after work tomorrow to get a blood test. I actually work in a clinic and probably could get it done at work but I only JUST started last week, so don't really feel comfortable to ask yet. Seems annoying to have to go to a walk in and wait when I literally spend all day in a place that could do it in a second! Also don't think I'm ready for everyone at my new job to know I'm preggo yet!
