hahaha curiosity! I think it's hilarious that he had to ask you to test! Are you going to test again tomorrow morning with FMU?

 

[~curiosity~]

He he iron willpower see

I think I'll still wait til Saturday as I just know I'm going to drive myself crazy otherwise!!

How long for you now Green? Chart is looking fab

 

[greenarcher]

I'll probably start Saturday just cause I have so many cheapies in the house. No FRERs until Monday or Tuesday

 

[OhHappyZ]

curiosity, that looks good to me! Plus with the temp dip, I am feeling pretty good about your cycle!! fx!

 

[tinymumma]

Les, I'm sorry that the witch got you Glad to hear your positive about moving on xx May is my birthday month so I'm hoping I can sprinkle you all with extra good luck!!! Crazy I know

Curiosity, HELLO LINEY!! I see one!! So excited for you lovie. So funny that DH begged you to test, someone's keen! Haha. I've come to realise hubbies are actually quite in tune with our bodies. When I was pregnant last time (only a few days before I got my BFP) we were moving house and hubby refused to let me lift anything because he said I was pregnant. I just laughed at him and it turned out I was!!
I really hope when you test again you get an undeniable line!

Kk, I hope all went well with little mans appointment. Sending lots of your way.

Glong, those are definitely honey!! And way darker than the others and the FRER is totally pink!! Can't wait to see more tests honey xoxo

Ali, what beautiful tests!! Love it Another massive congrats to you xxx

Proud and Les, best of luck for this next cycle loves. I really hope we can add you lovely ladies to the BFP's in the title this time around xxx

AFM, temp dip today. I know it doesn't mean much as I'm only 5 DPO but it did make me lose hope a little. Was expecting my temp to keep going up like it has been. Oh well, come on longer LP!! 4 more days until I'm originally due. I won't be testing until the 8th at least (that would be 14 DPO and Mothers Day, what?! Lol) and honestly, if I make it that far I kind of want to hold off even longer. I don't want to risk knowing if I end up having another chemical. I have suspicions that I've already had two this time around TTC due to having two 25 days cycles with very clotty and awful AF's. One on Valentine's Day to boot!! So many thoughts but all I can do is twiddle my thumbs lol.

I can't wait to see more tests ladies!! Sending out loads and loads of sticky baby dust xxx

 

[Mattsgirl]

Congrats Glong. Your tests look great!

Curiosity I think I see something!! Hope it gets darker! I have no idea how you could wait that long!

FX'd for you Les and proud! Hope this is your cycle!

Good luck Tiny! Hoping you can hold out testing as long as you want to. I don't temp so I could be wrong but couldn't a temp dip be implantation?

Congrats to all those who are buy/bought a house!! That is so exciting. I'm beyond jealous. Hoping to buy before December when this baby is due but we'll see if it works out.

Sorry to all those I missed. This past week has been soooo crazy. I started a new job which has been great. Also last Monday my ds got super sick. It's so hard watching your baby throw up and not be able to help him. Then later that night dd started throwing up. So all last week they weren't feeling good. Then Friday when I got home from work I started throwing up. Thankfully it looks like it was whatever they had and not pregnancy related. So that made me feel like complete crap all weekend. I have been reading here but just might have forgotten someone. Hope everyone is doing good!

Sorry to hear about the household sickness Matts I hope you all start feeling better soon. It's so horrible watching you Lo's be sick and knowing there's nothing you can do. Leonidas had a nasty viral injection at 4 months old and watching him go through that was worse than giving birth! Especially when they had to give him a spinal tap. I insisted to stay with him but hubby had to take me outside because I was getting hysterical. I really hope you and your littlies get better soon
Fx'd you get your house too!! Hopefully all the wonderful house news floating around here rubs off on you
It could be implantation but I'm only 5 DPO. Plus I don't put much hope into triphasic charts as I had one last month and I don't know how my body will go with having a full cycle of Vitex. We shall see though

hi guys! i'll sit down after DS is in bed and catch up from the day. just needed a pity party minute so feel free to ignore

i think AF will start tomorrow. i've been more emotional, increased BMs, CM has turned more watery and keep feeling like she has showed up. these are all my usual pre AF symptoms. I know it may mean nothing or could be pregnancy signs. but the only thing that has stayed consistent on my wonky cycles are those things happening the day of/day before she shows up. Just would really really suck. 5 months of being on vitex and my LP would be 10 days...wish my body would straighten itself out so I could feel more confident on getting pregnant

sigh...pity party over...thanks for stopping by...don't forget the party hat on the way out lol

Grabbing a hat and taking a seat next to you honey I really hope the witch stays away for you When does your temp usually drop before she arrives love? Your chart is looking pretty good xxx
I'm feeling very much like you right now. Just want to cry my eyes out. So much for NTNP this cycle Made the mistake of trawling the pregnancy test group and the first Tri group
We can be Debbie Downers together xxx
I really truly hope she doesn't arrive for you xx Remember though Vitex can take up to 6 months to take full effects xxx Sending you so much and lots of love and hugs xx

Thanks tiny for the company... i basically am ignoring all my temps (didn't even put half of them in) after they confirmed O because we went out of town and they went crazy, then came home and left the air on (so can't compare against coverline properly). And I dont have enough info to figure out when my temp falls. This is only my 3rd cycle doing it (kicking myself..should have started ages ago). The first cycle I got sick and only had an 8 day LP. Last cycle it started falling 2 days before and dipped under CL the day of...so who knows

Thanks for the support and I'm sorry you are having a rough time too testing threads and especially the first tri boards are really hard to be on sometimes. Before trying i had no problem hoping on any of the trimester boards and now I just can't bring myself to do it. I hope that the cry helped Just have to remind ourselves that we WILL be preggo and all of this will be a distant memory

I also think AF will be here tomorrow! AF buddies I guess lol.

All my usual AF symptoms are here but I`m having some wicked nausea during this TWW. I had one cycle back in summer 2015 where I felt nausea in the TWW but this time it`s vicious. Ugh. All this for AF.

 

[AliJo]

Kk & Tiny - I'm sorry you ladies are having a rough time! I couldn't imagine how you two feel as I've been fortunate. I'm here for you the best I can be! Most I can say is I've been jealous of the positives I see when I really wanted another, but needed to wait.

I put the next part in a spoiler just because it can really tear me up thinking about it so if you're feeling emotional maybe it isn't the time to view it. It's just really sad ordeal.

Spoiler

I've also been a little jealous of people with new babies, but I've put that to a complete halt after I had a cousin lose her 4 month old to SIDS. I obviously was very happy for all of them and would never want something like that to happen. The jealousy is normal I feel when you want something, it just felt wrong after that. I wasn't even jealous of her it was others. SIDS is heartbreaking, but it's more so when it hits home.

In other news - speaking of emotions - mine are a bit out of wack. I almost cried because of Pampers commercial.. ugh.. Babies in their cute little diapered bottoms getting me all worked up!

 

[ProudArmyWife]

Kk and tiny sorry you gals are feeling down

Side note I thought I was the only weird one who got on the announcement and first tri boards glad I'm not alone. I get so envious and start dreaming of being able to announce myself on those boards. Fingers crossed its soon for us all!

 

[kksy9b]

les- Sorry about AF showing up...you have such a great positive attitude for your next cycle. Like Tiny, may is my bday month so double doses of birthday baby dust

Ali- eekk!! love the stick porn No denying those tests!!

Proud- Sounds like a good plan to relax another cycle with OPKs I don't think they are necessary if you typically have a good clear ovulation. I didn't use them with DS because I was so regular. I will probably pick them up next cycle if needed because i like having the info and will be nice to pee on a stick and see a double line lol

curiosity- so happy your mortgage offer came through finally!!! What a relief that must be for you! I feel like I see the start of something! Don't hold out... LOL. I'm 9dpo today and tested yesterday morning to a bfn...may test tomorrow or might wait to friday...but will probably be tomorrow

tiny- you are WAY above cover dear...dont let the dip worry you!

Matts- oh no!! i hope the babies (and you!) start feeling better soon. We had a bug go through all of us back in February and it was just awful with DS throwing up..i can't imagine having to have two babies doing it. Congrats on the new job! What is it that you do?

choc.chip- boo for possible AF buddies...hopefully the nausea is a good sign!!

Ali- thanks hun. I know it will happen and like my DH told me, we will be glad it didn't happen any other month because then we wont have THAT baby...but still gets you down every now and again. feeling MUCH better now. Pregnancy hormones are seriously no joke! Hope its a bit better for you now. So sorry to hear about your cousins baby...what a sad and terrible thing to have happened

proud- definitely not the only one! i like hoping onto all the other boards and seeing where people are...I'm okay right now with the second tri (definitely the best IMO with movements, gender reveals and V-day!) but absolutely can't bring myself to go back into first tri until i'm preggo.

glong- will be stalking for tomorrows test!!! let me know when you want me to make it official on the front page

hoping everyone else had a wonderful day! any fun weekend plans?

AFM, feeling WAY better than I was earlier. I had a big emotional meltdown. was feeling so depressed and then got angry at my DH for no reason (like literally, I was making up a fight in my head with him and then got mad at him IRL for it). That turned into being incredibly depressed and weeping over DS growing up and "he doesn't hug me like he used to" which then shifted into a giggle fit. And then completely fine. That was over about 5 minutes. A bit of whiplash considering I'm not usually emotional. DH is convinced I'm pregnant now because the exact same thing happened a couple days before AF was due with DS now. Hoping!! Will likely test in the AM if temp looks OK

 

[kksy9b]

For our preggo gals (and the rest of when it's our turn!) - i was thinking of adding due dates to the front and down the road genders as well. let me know your due dates so i can start updating!

 

[glong88]

Scared to test this morning

 

[napamermaid]

Did u?

 

[glong88]

No still laying in bed with it all going around in my head if it isn't darker it will be a chemical if it's darker shall I do my digi too rahhhh

 

[~curiosity~]

Kk and Tiny to you both. TTC can be wonderful but is so so emotional I hope so much there is still hope for you both, you're such lovely ladies and you so deserve it xxx

Green good luck for Saturday, I hope it's the start of a lovely bfp.

Thank you Happy, how're you doing?

I caved and tested again this morning, it is less than 12 hours since last but test looks same as yesterday's so I'm thinking I was seeing things all along temp dip today too so think I'm out

How's everyone else feeling? Hang in there all

 

[mrs unicorn]

Kk & tiny - I'll join you! Bfn at 10 DPO. Thought I saw a glimmer of something on an IC so did a FRER and nothing at all. Damn those ICs (or my eyesight), I always see something on them. Got ages till af though, 4th may.

Curiosity - I feel you on the ICs! I'm still going to test tomorrow so I can crack open the wine Friday night!

Glong - there's no pressure to test again today. I'll be checking in on you though. Xxx
