My First Response Ovulation Test

[abagailb14]

If af is due tomorrow you should be able to test now!

 

[Forrest]

Omg...! I think I'll try one in the morning. I drank so much water so I.should wait. Last time I got my bfp almost 2weeks after af was due because my hcg was low..

 

[Forrest]

So I'll check in tomorrow as soon as I test. Thanks Abagail. Muah!

 

[abagailb14]

Take one first thing in the morning and update! I hope it's a bfp for you! Fx

can't wait to hear from you, forrest!!

abigail, how are the softcups going? i've always been kinda weirded out by them, but may have to pick some up at target this week! my poor husband.
how are your opk's going??

sunflower, where are you?? how are you doing?

 

[Forrest]

Hi....

 

[Forrest]

I used a digital... I got a "NOT PREGNANT " so I dont know what's going on with me. Af is usually on time. Maybe it's late this month or just changing cycle or something. Af is due today but still no sign of it.
to you all

 

[Forrest]

I wonder if sunflower left us? Did she get involved and ran off with another thread? Lol

 

[jtink28]

aww. i'm sorry, forrest.

you know, i don't know if this will help at all, but it helps me sometimes. my best friend got pregnant with her first the first month ttc. now, she's 8 weeks pregnant with her second child after 2 months ttc. i know she loves her kids, but she's never had to struggle for them. she calls them "miracles," but after talking to her, i realize that she doesn't truly realize how fortunate she is.
i know that when i finally get pregnant and have my baby, i will know how hard it was to wait and wait and wait, and that i finally have a true miracle in my arms.

this has been my favorite quote for over 20 years, when i read 'the count of monte cristo' in the 6th grade. this quote has helped me through so much - my crohn's disease diagnosis and now, unsuccesfully trying to get pregnant. it will happen for us, forrest. just not today

"As for you, Morrel, this is the secret of my conduct towards you. There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, Morrel, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of living. Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget that until the day when God shall deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is summed up in these two words, - `Wait and hope.'"

forrest, the digital aren't as sensitive. get a frer! you aren't out till the witch shows, girl!

 

[Forrest]

A Frer? Is that what I should ask for at the drug store? I only know about ebt. Or clear blue and first response so I just need to know where to find a frer.

 

[Forrest]

I'm feeling so tired and sleepy.. it's 10:30 AM! I'm forcing my eyes open and my stomach feels hollow. I guess I shall lay in bed for a while.
later I'll get the frer so tomorrow I will test again.

 

[jtink28]

frer = first response early result (the pink dye ones, which i think are more reliable)

you can get them anywhere - walgreens, target, walmart, the grocery store (you're in the US, so they shouuld have them everywhere!)

 

[Forrest]

Oh ok. That's a relief! I'm excited now. There is still hope!

I just calculated my last bfp and I remember it only showed on a home test over a week After missed af. I'm just keeping my Fx and praying.

 

[jtink28]

some women, their bfp's don't show till later. late implantation and hcg builds a little slower.
you aren't out till the witch shows!

 

[Forrest]

Ugh! I feel so sick. I hope the witch doesn't show... I feel kinda weird in my abdomen and lower back pain so I'm probably out. It's only a matter of time but I'll just watch n wait.

 

[abagailb14]

jtink- the softcups are awesome! They look a little daunting but they're actually super easy to insert, especially after bd lol. They're supposed to hold the spermies up close to your cervix so we'll see! I actually haven't told DH about them..I think he would be way weirded out! Opk's are going good, I'm on cd15 and still negative but I usually don't o until cd20. How's everything going with you?

Forrest- Don't give up hope, that ugly witch hasn't showed up yet!
