Sticking Together Until We All Get BFP's!!!!

[Megamegan]

I'm so nervous that I have been dreaming about taking the test or talking to people about pregnancy...I woke up at 2:45 to pee and last night started feeling like I had to pee more frequently with less coming out but it doesn't feel like a UTI...I really just started thinking of all the possibilities last night and I'm definitely nervous now!! And I took my temp because I didn't know it wasn't morning and it was 98.7. I might just be a day off on when my period is coming. And now I'm sitting here at 3am and I'm hungry lol. Last night I realized a few telltale signs of AF have not arrived. Nasty headache the day before, spotting, smell of period (tmi), diarrhea. Nope. And with the unusual cramps and pain in hips, I just can't help but be hopeful. And then I remember we timed BD well and used soft cups and I'm feeling like there's a chance. Thanks to you girls I'm not alone with my thoughts. I suppose I should try to sleep so I can get an accurate waking temp! Happy Easter!

Morning ladies! My BFP is a thing of the past. Suffering terrible cramps and heavy bleed. CP again! Going to doc next week to check things out. Bummed but relieved, if that makes any sense...

Good luck to you all and lots of baby/sticky dust to ya!!!


FYI - I was 16 dpo with BFPs since 12 dpo and faint bfp on first night of bleed...

on FRER this morning, urgh. Wanted to see a BFP so badly. The other tests must have been flukes. I'm so sick of internet cheapies, I think I'm going to wait for a few days to test again and just use my digis that I have left.

Hope everyone has a great Easter

I think waiting for a digi is a great idea. The digi would prob be able to pick up in about 2 days. Good Luck!

AFM, I'm counting today as CD1 because it was like 1230a.m when I actually noticed a decent light flow. These cramps are the worse! By far! . I'm going to actually take some ibuprofen for the pain for once

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!

igrowbabies- I'm sorry to hear about your CP Good luck at the doctor's!

Chelsea- I know IC's can be so disappointing.. I like them because I can POAS as many times as I want without wasting $$, but personally for me I just wouldn't use a digi until after a missed period or after a positive on another test... seeing the words "not pregnant" is too disappointing to me! I remember in college even though I was preventing, I was always halfway hoping it would happen and I took a digi once and was super sad with those words- lol.

Mary- Yes today as CD1 sounds accurate. Impressive, I always take Ibuprofen or Midol for AF. I get killer cramps but only for like one day. You'll feel better soon

AFM- BFN on my test this morning, temp is still consistent with other post-o temps this cycle, and no blood yet. I feel like spotting will start today but as I stated in my 3 am post (lol) I also feel different, just a tiny bit different, from other cycles. For instance my hips were aching all night as I slept. That is so weird for me.

Do you ladies see any hint of anything on this test? I thought I saw a little something on it but this isn't the best pic (3 min mark, the time limit)... and it's the first one I've gotten this cycle. Weird how I got tons of evaps last cycle but this one, same batch and no evaps.

I dont see anything Megan but it still def could be early. Its weird that u dont have AF because usually u get it the same day as me or the day before me and today was when AF was due for me so there's some hope on its own, ur LP's longer than usual (well it will be after today). FX stays away!!

 

[aidensmommy1]

I just have to say, these past two months have made me HATE wondfos! I personally had a good batch (like no evaps) but obv there's way too many bad batches out there. I decided for now on I'll just buy the .88 cent walmart tests if I get the urge. I dont plan to test until AF is due this cycle because I'm getting my head out of the gutter testing wise for the next couple of months. I would be crushed if I ended up with a 100% convincing line like wishing had and it turn out not to be true. I'd honestly prefer a digi over wondfo and I'm always the first person to say "a digital will show up later and I dont like seeing the words" (just like u said Megan) but at the same time, id rather see not pregnant then to be fooled into thinking I AM pregnant when I'm not, u know? I still cant believe those stupid stupid wondfo lines have done that to 3 or 4 women on just this one thread in the past month. That's what's keeping me from ordering more lol. I just had to vent about the wondfos. Lol. Does anyone know of any better internet cheapies so I know for the future? There's obv going to be evaps on some tests no matter the brand but these evaps are just plain cruel!! Anyways, I hope everyone is having a fabulous Easter! I actually got to keep aiden! His dad is back to his old self (this wkend anyways) and didn't want to have to spend the little amount of money he needed to for an Easter basket so he just didn't call. I know spending money is the only reason I didn't get that call. His loss. I'm not complaining, he just made my Easter even better

 

[Megamegan]

I hear ya, Mary. You're right. Check out the latest thing my Wondfo's are showing. A line in the wrong spot. Invalid as far as I'm concerned. But uncool.

LOL wow!! U have 3 lines! Lol I got 3 lines on frer once..i was praying one was the real line and one was the evap but apparently I was just oh so lucky enough to get TWO evaps on one test! Lol Sooo not cool!

 

[aidensmommy1]

I just keep looking at ur test Megan and I can see the line u DONT have am arrow over sooo clearly. If it was on its own (one line) itd almost be convincing. See that's what I mean, I would rather see "not pregnant" than to see a line saying "hey you may be pregnant...or I'm just playing another cruel trick!" lol cuz at least the digital wont completely rip ur heart out and cant lie, u know? I would have snapped if I had one that looked like wishings and it wasn't real. That really bugs me just cuz we all go thru enough as it is but I guess we get what we pay for, u know? But I've always been the same as u and I still wouldn't use a digi until at least 13dpo and that's only if I have confusing line tests like urs, wishings, and the other 2 ladies on here. (I'm sorry It'll take me another day or two to remember all the new names) I just hate seeing the words, as we all do :-\. I'm just rambling lol. But in a situation where I thought I got a faint bfp, id use a frer digi to check. And actually these days, that's one digital I do trust super early. It can pick up a level of around 10. If the frer line one will pick it up, the "yes" or "no" frer digis will too . I was so happy when I learned that a couple months ago lol Sorry for rambling...im having trouble getting my words out the way I want to today so I've been going on and on lol.
Well Megan, I truly truly hope u get a darker test line but with TWO lines and not 3 lol. FX! If ur sister couldn't get a positive til a little later, there is a decent chance it could happen with you too. Stuff like that runs in my bffs family. None of them can get positives until at least 5 wks along (so at least 20dpo because the docs go by ur LMP if u dont chart) but that's still a pretty late bfp and my bffs first pregnancy was about 10wks from her O day (12 according to docs) until she got a positive urine test. I remember u saying it took longer for ur sister so I figured id mention it can run in the family just incase it ever comes in handy for ur ttc journey u may have already known. Lol. If u cant tell, I'm bored waiting for everyone to be ready so we can leave for the family dinner. Sorry for the book and thanks for reading!

So annoyed not sure if I am 1 or 2 dpo or if I need to count from when my ovu calendar says I ovulate, which is tomorrow. Blah. I felt right ovary pains on Fri & Saturday. Thinking of going to buy an ovu test now just to see if I am or what. So confused

 

[Megamegan]

Mary, yeah actually the line furthest to the left isn't a line, it's the spot where the strip ends and turns into the white part...really it's just that middle line which is in the wrong spot. Anyway it means nothing lol. I'm so super nauseous ever since the middle of acupuncture today and I think I'll feel better after I eat lunch. I went to church and stared at an adorable baby giving his mommy open mouth kisses on her cheek the whole time. It was so cute. I love baby kisses. Anyway I sure hope I get a BFP or AF by tomorrow morning so I can tell DH in person. If I have to wait til the middle of the week for a BFP I would have to hold it in until Saturday night and I know I can't do that!! I want him to be the first to know but my work friends have to know too because I'm traveling with them. They for sure would know when I refused to drink each night. Lol. Ugh This is THE HARDEST part of the 2ww. Period late no explanation. Let's get a move on here!!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Wishing, can you put me down for may 16th? Idk when AF will be due next yet but around the 16th is when ill test if AF is late. AF should be due between the 12th and 16th so ill go w the later date. Thanks love! Happy Easter!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Actually, the 15th where u have me is perfect

I know, you get to that point where its like "ok if I'm not pregnant, just let AF show or give me a bfp!!!" lol limbo sucks! And idk how I didn't realize that was just part of the test strip lol even in person my eyes mess with me while trying to look at wondfos though. That would have been a nice looking line tho lol I hope u get ur bfp before ur trip! FX!

 

[Hopefulmum2be]

BFP!!! Got my BFP 3 days ago after 3
Months of ttc. I had a tiny bit of spotting the day before my period was due so was completely convinced AF had arrived as my boobs were hurting, slight cramping and quite ratty - all period symptoms. After my period hadn't properly come on I did a test and it was positive. I then did 3 others over the next couple of days and all positive. So so excited but now so nervous something will go wrong. The only thing I will say though for ladies looking out for all sorts of symptoms is that I don't think there are any that are different from usual period. I know everyone is different but I had no symptoms that were different from period symptoms until my period didn't arrive. Good luck everyone!! Xxxxx

 

[Megamegan]

Eeekkkk.... ignore the little scratches to the left of the line, my stupid nail did that, but there's a second line on this test, right?! This is within the time limit, and as I write this, I feel like throwing up. I'm not convinced of BFP yet (not even close) but I am convinced I could really be pregnant because of no AF and how I feel. I just took a 2 hour nap and feel worse than I did before the nap. Well, going on a plane should be fun!! Lol

I will def test tonight, reeeeeally really want a BFP before I leave so DH and I can celebrate! He doesn't know about this test yet.

 

[Megamegan]

As far as I am concerned these tests are still stinkin negative. I just am making myself find a line. If AF is coming she's gonna be a mean one.
