October Sticky Beans!

Here she is! Pretty sure I am just going crazy but figured we were due for another peestick pic! First is within 10 mins, second is within 25 mins. (ignore the pen mark, a bunch of this batch have them, so frustrating)

@blackrain90

In my office squinting at the pics. I'm not seeing anything, but I hope I see something in the next pics you post
Are you 8dpo now?

 

[Blackrain90]

Not yet, 10pm CD7. Thanks me too!

 

[cscbeth8421]

Here we are ladies! 9DPO, BFN. lol Enjoy! BTW that free app "pregnancy test checker" is amazing for obsessing over tests!

How is everyone else doing? I had a few hrs of pulling on my left lower abdomen yesterday. Almost like cramping. Still feeling optimistic! I Have never gotten a BFP before 10DPO. So just hanging in there!

 

[caz & bob]

hiya girls hope we all get our soon to us all I will be testing over the weekend xx

 

[Angel5000]

Sorry blackrain I don't see anything in the pics. But that pen mark IS really annoying. I think I would have returned them. But....then you'd have to wait for a new batch. And then what would you do. lol

AFM 8DPO today and hoping I make it without any signs of AF. This is typically when the first signs start coming (blood in CM, but no spotting). I really REALLY want to be completely symptom free today! Of course, I'm going to be so busy with First Day of School stuff that I won't have a lot of time for obsessing until around 3pm. to all!

Good luck with your first day angel! Hoping it goes great!

Blackrain I swear I saw something on the bottom picture but my eyes can see a line on just about anything

Seeing all these tests showing up on this thread has me so giddy lol

 

[Blackrain90]

Lol! Yeah a def BFN this morning so will see what the next few days hold. It is exciting!!

Good luck today Angel, things will go great!

 

[todmommy4568]

I inverted your test like a crazy lady sorry...and there was some weird spot showing up on the bottom around where the test line should be so hey! I'm not completely crazy my eyes were drawn to something! but yes agreed on the BFN

Csc - that app is awesome, just downloaded it after I saw your post! I put my test in from last month that I swore I saw something on that no one else could see and bam! It was there, I am not crazy! Although still sure it was an evap

So many of us are having such similar symptoms. It’s lovely to have a group of ladies who are in this with me. Makes me feel less like a crazy person.

MsRipple - After this cycle, I’m just not in a hurry to test anymore. Seeing this BFNs hurts. So I totally get where you’re coming from. But FX that AF stays away and that you do make it to 14dpo and see that BFP

Blackrain & Angel - oh the symptom spotting. I legit cannot help it, the more I know, the more I notice. So then I think I’m not going to do anymore research, and then I think, but I have to know everything so I have a healthy pregnancy. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL.

And good luck on your first day Angel!! I have class today, so my obsession will have to wait till 4pm.

cdc - OK i need this app. Cue the frantic searching of the app store.

todmommy - I just love that you want to see lines everywhere. I’m not alone in this!! Cause i totally thought i saw something on the second pic too!

It is exciting to see these testing pics! Thanks for sharing. Praying that I get to see a from all of you

I'd love to do a test tomorrow morning, but I've only got two tests in the house and no way to go get anymore. I'm going to do my best to patiently wait until Saturday morning

I'm not really having any symptoms. No spotting (which I usually get 2 days before AF), no sore boobs (which I usually get the entire week before). However, I do have some cramping (which is a normal AF sign), but I've also had minutes of strange pinching in the center that I don't think I've felt before.

@angel5000
It is nice to have a distraction. This is my second week of classes. I only teach from 7:30-1:30, but it takes up a good chunk of the day at least.

 

[Blackrain90]

Yeah there was a little bump on the test, think that's what I was seeing too.

Nothing major so far today. Supppper hungry again, but also a bit bloated. Occasional twinge ache in tummy but not much.

Edit: make that VERY bloated.

 

[Blackrain90]

Ivksa I hope your waiting results in a big beautiful BFP!

 

[Angel5000]

Hi Ladies!! So my first day with students went really well! It was great, but wow my feet hurt!

On a super positive note, I have NO blood in CM today! First time I've made it this far in LP without any blood in cm! Hoping it's a good sign!!!!

Had some odd CM mixture though (odd for me). Mostly creamy (the "standard" feels/looks like lotion type) but I also had some that was creamy looking but EW consistency. Not used to seeing that post-O.

lvksa What do you teach ?

 

[Blackrain90]

Yay! Glad your day went well and SUPER glad for no spotting!!!

So bfn for me but no AF, which was due today. Temps going way high However looking at my temp pattern, my positive opks on cd 18 and 19, my cm I'm pretty sure I ovulated late this cycle and not early - so I'm actually 4 dpo not 12 dpo. Ff seems to agree - gave me solid crosshairs once I put in opk info and today's temps I also felt two sharp cramps around my left ovary around an hour apart -- I usually don't feel ovulation but I'm usually not pushing out eggs on cd 20 (maybe they're bigger?)! And I was so excited bc I thought I had a triphasic chart! Pretty bummed though because the only time we had sex around that time was the evening cd 20 -- 8 hours or so after I felt the o pains. I think that may have been too late?


my cycles have been so unpredictable lately It's hard have well-time sex as I travel so much for work -- thinking we won't even be able to try at all next month

Hey ladies! Nothing really to report today. Pretty normal with no symptoms to speak of. I NEVER have any AF symptoms, it just rears its ugly head at an unexpected time. My temps have been like exactly the same for the past 4 days. Hoping to see a jump soon! Who knows. Not feeling hopeful at the moment. But that can all change so fast. Thinking im just tired. Feet up, glass of wine then sleep.

 

[MsRipple]

@ blackrain, you are too funny and quite brave to test not only 7 dpo, but in the evening to boot !

No worries that the pen marks might mess up the dye results?

Hope you still managed to catch your eggy! Haha I wouldn't call it brave, more boredom and addiction haha.
I don't think so; if it was before where the test line would be then maybe, but I think it's fine.

Yes everything definitely can change in even a day. Hopefully just relaxing and not stressing will be good for your chances!

This evening my bad bloat has gone down, but I still have a pressure in the middle of my lower abdomen and back similar to pre AF. Have been unusually stable (normally my mood goes to shit 5 days before AF), though my husband told me something that made me mad and I instantly had to hold back tears....but calmed down equally fast and am happy and content now. And just starting to get a headache. I dunno, I just feel out today. Still so early to tell, though if vitex normally only pushes LP 2-3 days longer, I should be expecting AF by the weekend.
