December Testers! Anyone else hoping for BFP for Christmas?

[MamaBunny2]

Hi, ladies! *wave* New to these boards, though I have been on MDC on and off since my other two were little (10 years).

Quick background! I have two other kids (10 and 7) with my ex-husband. Re-married in 2012, and my current husband has waffled about having our own kids the whole time. Finally! The last few months he said he DID want to have kids, but we should wait ttc. I'm 31 (not soooo old), but I never really wanted kids that much later. Just this month we moved. It also coincided with me yanking my copper IUD out (constant UTIs, very long periods/short cycles). He said he felt like having a baby (!!!), so we started ttc at the beginning of this month.

I was never this antsy with my other kids. I took my pregnancy tests after I missed my period, and then only one time each (they were very clearly positive). But this time I'm just like OMGGETMEPREGNANTNOW! Ha

So, now I'm on 12 dpo (I think? My cycles have been so weird bc of my IUD that I really am not sure when I ovulate). Have been taking dollar star tests and only seeing the faintest of faint positives, which I cannot take seriously. This morning took a FRER, and it's a less faint positive, so I thiiiiiink this is it? Geez! What do you guys think? This was taken with fmu at 5 minutes.

Hi enmaree Yay for getting the go-ahead from your DH! I'm also 31. I have 2 kids and my youngest is 9. I was never impatient when it came to testing with both my pregnancies but got very clear for each. I had a copper IUD in 2010/11 but had mine removed due to annoying constant spotting throughout the month. Came off the BC pill the end of May this year. I feel the SAME WAY - MUSTGETKNOCKEDUPRIGHTNOW But due to some issues at home have decided to take a break from TTC, though I'm currently in a 2WW right now at 8DPO. For super squinters, I find that if you take the photo and change it to negative coloring it helps faint lines more visible. I'm going to try with yours...

Here's your test in black and white, sepia and negative. Ladies?

So the cramping is worse. It is a weird cramping. It feels like a brain freeze but in my uterus. That is weird right lol. I didn't know how else to describe it haha.

That totally describes what I was feeling at 7DPO it was super weird and was very uncomfortable. I described it as "stabby" pains haha
Ever since then my boobs having been super sore and I have been nauseous! I'm really hoping this is it for me! I caved and tested yesterday (9DPO) BPN and again this morning (10DPO) BFN. Gah I hate the wait!!

Hi ladies! How is everyone doing? Just wanted to give an update that I got my second blood draw done today and my HCG went up from 208 on Wednesday to 506 today!!! YAY that makes me feel a little better since I've had a miscarriage before and an ectopic last December.

I definitely see something on the first two tests, but not so much on the negative.

Ok so my cramps are away at this moment in time. Still very slight spotting. I'm anxious to see whether I wake up with af or a temp rise tomorrow morning. That's if af doesn't show up at all this evening. I really expected it to be here by now with my low temps yesterday and today.

 

[NurseGinger]

I dont see anything on any of the photos :/

 

[drjo718]

Enmaree- I see a squinters on all your photos, and I never see them when other ppl do!

 

[drjo718]

Well ladies, you can take me off testing this month. Found out for sure today that 100 mg clomid didn't work, no ovulation. I'm on CD24 now just waiting and waiting for something to happen. I'm going to keep doing the opks since it's the only way I know when AF will arrive (my lp is always 14 days). I'm waiting to hear about an appointment with the fertility specialist and I'll try clomid again while I'm waiting if I end up having a cyale on my own before then.

I keep thinking, "Well, maybe I just didn't look at it the right way..."

Ugh, the right way. I can't even use italics correctly!

Afm I am nauseous, still battling this migraine, Cramping and it is still the weird cramping, still having heavy cm but it is creamy/watery now but loads of it, oh and gassy lol.

 

[LavenderLove]

Emilie I'm getting excited for you with those symptoms! The gas, the cramping, lots of CM, those were my first little signs something was going on. I hope this is the beginning of something good for you, too! This thread has been so lucky I don't see why the luck couldn't continue!

Hoping everyone is doing okay.
