Need some buddies 1dpo, its a waiting game!

Im with mirolee!!! :test: Too late today, but in the morning I want to see an update of a darker line!! :D
 
Hey girls! Sorry I have been MIA. My test lines have been staying the same, maybe just a tiny weeny bit darker (or it could just be wishful thinking...). I bought a different test brand today so we'll see what tomorrow brings. I'm really not optimistic, hopefully I'm proven wrong.

When are you due Mirolee?
 
Yay!!! I'd say there is good reason for you to be hopeful, Rachel! Lines that stick around are fantastic! Very early on it took almost 4 days for my lines to get dark enough for me to really tell the difference.

Fingers crossed for ya!!
 
Okay girls, here is a link to one of my tests. You can see a line in real life, and it's gotten more positives than negatives (if only that was the way of determining whether or not you were pregnant!) so they must be able to see something...anyways, hope'n the lines start getting way more visable.

i see the start of something, R. i am SO hopeful for you!
 
I seen it too!! Hope tomorrows is darker!! Looking great and sounding great, Rach! FX!! YAY!
 
I'm 13DPO and bought a different brand of tests and didn't realize they don't show a positive unless your hormone level is at 100. The average pregnant woman only has a hormone level of between 5-50 in the first week of pregnancy! Needless to say, my test was negative this morning. Boo! I hate to waste the money, but I think I'm going to buy some more sensative tests today. I hate the amount of money I waste on tests! :dohh: I have just been SOO tired lately and my nips are getting sore. More so than normal. Who knows...maybe I'm just having a more severe PMS than normal.

Oh and thanks for patronizing me on the test pic. :blush: I know it's barely visable.
 
hi ladies! i am 11dpo and had a neg on FRER. and then had a little cry. and then i talked myself back to the hopeful side by saying that FRER is only 53% effective at 11dpo. and also, even if this cycle is a bust, clomid worked well in my body and my dr is ready to give it to me again, so i dont have to fight anyone for that. i'm going out tonight with some of my gf's and having a beer. i still *really really really really* want that BFP, but i'm trying to stay focused on the positive parts, not the negative shiz.
rach, 100? that is a lot! damn. which brand is more sensitive, do you know? i hate hpts! good luck, dear, i'm going to keep stalking you!
 
Just my 2 cents on tests-- I was exclusively a First Response girl until my last cycle. I wanted to test but didn't want to waste the money so I got a Target brand blue dye test. I know they are completely notorious for false positives, so when it came up positive, I was pretty skeptical-- also because of having the trigger shot. When I took a FRER later that day it was super light, so I counted it as negative.

So, I guess what I'm saying is I think the blue dye tests are more sensitive, but they are prone to false positives. Probably safer to stick with First Response/pink dye tests for reliability. Still, my HCG was 23 when an FRER registered positive-- that's pretty low! It was so light, I still didn't want to call it positive, but the line was there and clearly pink.
 
stalking you, Rach......hope in the morning with a more sensitive test, you see 2 lines. :D
 
So, I got a BFN again and AF is on her way. I'm done with doing anything more than OPK's for a while. I'm going to try to focus more on myself right now and coming to terms with the fact that there's a really good chance I won't ever be a mom.

How are you girls doing?

When will you know if your clomid worked Mirolee?
 
i knew last week, about thursday (11dpo) with BFN on FRER. wanted to pretend it wasnt true, but then my temp crashed. and some bleeding today (prob "light" but havent checked for a little while, so tomorrow will be cd1 or something). have to get bloodwork for pregnancy before theyll give me the next RX for clomid. also trying to get HSG scheduled for next week.
i'm so sorry rach. i was *really* hoping for you. enjoy recentering and focusing on yourself - a yoga class maybe? sculpting? spinning? i'm thinking of you. fuck ttc. i hate that bitch.
 
:witch: showed up officially today. Yipee skipee. Well, Mirolee, looks like we'll be on the same schedule again.

I had a break down last night on my way home from work. When I got in the house hubs gave me a hug and I just started crying again. He asked what was wrong and I told him I'm just sad that we don't get to be parents. He was so super sweet. He just held me and told me we just don't get to be right now and once we get some things paid off, we'll try the more expensive stuff. I love my hubs so much. He doesn't really talk about us not being parents, or how it effects him, but when I really need him, he's there and it's nice to know that this is still something that he really wants to. It's much easier to be patient when I have the support and love of such a great man. <3
 
that is great rach! what a man/husband! Youare lucky and blessed....you will be parents one day, I just know it...and I bet it will be IVF that does it. You're amazing.
 
air hi-five rach for co-periods..... not :wacko: i took the morning off and laid on the couch, just me and my cramps. blood test this morning will confirm, i'm sure. BUT will pick up next clomid RX tomorrow and HSG scheduled for next wednesday. hopign the HSG will clean things out and prime me up for that BFP!
i'm glad your honey was so understanding and good. i dont know if/when/how it will happen for you, but i cant imagine it will never happen. hugs.
Mama, any update? is laus about?
 
I hope the HSG goes well for you. I'm sure they've already mentioned this to you, but make sure and take something for pain before hand. For some ppl it's worse than others. Mine was all clear, so it was uncomfortable, but not too bad. I hope clomid/HSG is your magical combo. :)

How's your TWW going Heather?
