Remaining cautiously hopeful for this cycle.

So, my SO and I are on TTC #1 Cycle 6, it's been a long trying emotional experience to say the least. With him being away on business in NY and living in NY for now, and only seeing him every 2 months or so. I have been very not hopeful.

So he surprised me by flying up on the 26th to spend till the 30th with me. At the time, I was not paying attention to Ovia and Flo. Which I really should have been paying attention to. Well he was here we BD on the 27th, 28th and 29th. After he left I checked on my apps. Those 3 days were the last 3 days in my fertile window. Didn't think much of it because that's when I get crazy hopeful.

So on the 1st, and 2nd I experience really light pink/brown spotting. Thought that could be implantation, but didn't wanna get too hopeful, from there symptoms increased, constant nausea, headaches, dizzy spells, sore boobs and nips, backaches, insomnia, decreased appetite, increased libido. So I started getting a little more hopeful.

Skip forward to January 8th when AF is supposed to be due. Took a FRER and got a stark white BFN. Figured whatever AF will show up soon, I'll be out. If she doesn't show up within the next week or so I will check again.

Jump forward to last night, nausea is getting progressively worse and two more symptoms have popped up. Increased discharge and tingling in the aerola and nipples. Ovia is telling me to test today, but I'm worried about getting another BFN.

So I am holding out a cautious hope, cause still no signs of AF, and everyone around me (besides my jealous best friend) is convinced I'm pregnant. So I want to test. But I'm not sure if I should yet.

Can anyone else relate? Am I just symptom spotting and driving myself crazy? or does it sounds promising?

My fx that this is my cycle.

Fx and baby does to everyone else this cycle too!

Do you temp, cowgirl? It could be that you aren't ovulating exactly when your apps think you are. Temping would give you a good idea of what's going on and you wouldn't be left guessing. When I was actively TTC, temping helped me know when I was preggo because of the rises and it let me know when AF was coming because of the gigantic temp fall.

Now we've moved on to IVF, so no temping for me until they put an egg back in and I can watch the temps rise...
