July Testers-Fun, Sun and POAS! 13 BFP!

[canadabear]

Smiley: going to test sat morning.. As is dh birthday.. Though I am sure too early and having cramps so almost sure AF is on her way

 

[smiley4442]

Oh I hope not!

 

[sekhmet2013]

Welcome sekhmet! I am possibly 8 DPO (temps also low). I was planning on testing the 22nd but I caved this morning... but I will test again then! So we're sort of testing buddies!

Well it's very likely that I won't be able to wait that long and will cave early. So maybe I'll join you on the 22nd! Good luck!!

Well.... eventhough it's bizarrely early, I had told myself I'd test today and tomorrow (back when I thought I'd O earlier). So I used an IC today and I got my first ever evap line! I know that usually means nothing, but I'm a terrible line spotter, and that's the first time I've ever seen an evap - so part of me is completely unreasonably hopeful.
The other part of me is thinking about the fact that I still have some cramps today, and I had a slight temp dip, so I'm probably out and AF will be here in a day or two.
I'll still bust out the FRER tomorrow on the off chance I might be able to pick something up to tell my DH for his bday. A girl can dream, right? lol

Awe, I hope you get it! What a wonderful bday present for DH that would be!

Haha, I know what you mean...I actually caved and tested this morning BFN of course! But I only have one test left so I must make myself wait! Can't wait to see what you get as well!

OMG, I think today is finally O day!! CD33. Here is hoping my LP is longer than 5 days this cycle....by about 9 months!! I feel like waiting 3 days for crosshairs is going to drive me batty, let alone the TWW....Anyone wanna be testing buddies? Thankfully we are going camping next week so I won't be able to test too early. I'll test when we get home on July 27th, which is 11 DPO....if AF hasn't shown up....FX

1 day late now and no PMS signs- I generally get a backache and bloating 1-2 days before. Had a negative test yesterday, going to take another test first thing tomorrow. My cycles might have changed after my pregnancy, although I have had 1 normal period since my D&C.
Keep your fingers crossed for me, ladies.

 

[bluefish1980]

Fingers AND toes crossed for you dark star.

 

[KrissyB]

Oh my goodness kristy. Post your test! Was it a evap because it tested positive out if the time range? I took an IC test when I knew I wasn't pregnant to make sure it worked right and it was fine. Crossing my fingers for you!!

It was probably more of an indent than an evap. A very faint line with no real color to speak of. I posted pics from a few hours later on the POAS thread, but really only because you asked - I don't think there's anything there. I had some spotting today (6dpo), and I started spotting on 7dpo last month, so I'm trying to keep my expectations fairly low lol.

Congrats on the Crosshairs!! And I love your chart! So neat and clean this time! FXed

FXed for you too, Canada! My fellow DH bday present hoper

Took a digi for DH's bday this morning (what an awesome present right!) It said pregnant 2-3! Hopefully that's a good sign as I should be 2 weeks 1 day from ovulation. I have a question for you ladies on DHA. How important do you think it is?? I woke up in the middle of the night last night with horrible cramping and thought oh no, but then I started sweating bad and got sick to my stomach. Not sure if it was just a pregnancy thing or if it was because I took a DHA supplement for the first time last night (love my prenatal..rainbow light..but it doesn't have DHA). I'm kinda allergic to seafood... not like hives/breathing trouble but more of an intolerance where I get super sick to my stomach right away and then feel bad for days. Soo maybe that's related... I have no clue.

 

[DandJ]

Congrats mkyerby!!! I don't know much about DHA but I found this online: DHA is brain nutrition. It's to our brains as calcium is to our bones. In fact, optimal infant brain and eye development and function depends on it.

Your prenatal vitamins don't have DHA in them?

 

[mkyerby16]

Nope they're the Rainbow Light brand and I love them as I'm even fine taking them on an empty stomach, but they have everything except for dha of course. Guess this is a dilemma for my dr. I worry bc of course I'm not eating fish soo I doubt I'm getting enough.

 

[KrissyB]

Mky - I'm allergic to shellfis (not all seafood though) with the same symptoms and I have no problem with dha
... Are the levels of B vitamins the same in the two prenatals? Some people (myself included) are sensitive to too much of one of the Bs, I forget which

 

[Mintastic]

Mky - my doc told me specifically NOT to take them. I eat fish though. Do you eat eggs? They have the DHA-enriched eggs.

 

[Bug222]

everything crossed for you dark star!!!

 

[smiley4442]

Krissy, I see what you mean about it looking like an indent and no color. Still hoping you get your BFP


Hormones are kicking my butt today! I'm super exhausted, moody and bloated. ugh! Only 3 dpo and I hope it gets better.

 

[sekhmet2013]

Well it's very likely that I won't be able to wait that long and will cave early. So maybe I'll join you on the 22nd! Good luck!!

Haha, I know what you mean...I actually caved and tested this morning BFN of course! But I only have one test left so I must make myself wait! Can't wait to see what you get as well!

Haha, it's so hard to wait! The BFNs don't help at all, but getting a BFP early would be so nice! I only have one test, so I'm going to try to make myself wait. But I keep thinking every little thing is a symptom. I still haven't had any implantation spotting or twinges/cramps, etc. so who knows. The TWW is killer.

 

[mkyerby16]

Krissy -thanks that makes me feel better that your fine with it. Maybe just a coincidence. There's no B in the dha supplement, its just dha only.

Mint- really? Do you know why they said not to? The only way I can eat eggs is scrambled with cheese lol and I'm still not crazy about them. May have to force myself to eat them more.

 

[Mintastic]

Mky - I think for me it is because I have a sensitive stomach and I guess too much DHA can aggravate that? I didn't really ask for details but am seeing her again Tues and can.

 

[mkyerby16]

That's ok I was just curious! I appreciate the help. I may try it one more time, but I'll probably call and see what my dr has to say.

 

[DentDoc16]

CD25 today.. feeling pretty normal-ish. I should probably just wait until when I might get AF to test, but who knows if I can wait! haha
