Thank you

[0hF0y]

It may seem a little odd that I start off my very first post by thanking all of you. But while I just became a registered member, I've been following the boards for months. I've been obsessing with you over symptoms and cheering you on from afar.

It almost sounds selfish to say I never registered until now because I just KNEW that I was going to get that BFP soon and I wouldn't need this support. After 8 months it hasn't happened. I'm in my TWW which always brings me to this board to read about the symptoms you all are having and so that I can over analyze ever little twinge.

This board has been a blessing. My husband is anxious and ready to be a father... and while he is disappointed each month that goes by... there is the emotional turmoil of seeing the BFNs on more tests than I'm willing to acknowledge to him that I take. These moments and feelings that only you ladies can understand.

So thank you for letting me watch your journeys. Thank you for the hope you have given when I see your BFPs after months of trying. Thank you for what feels like a hug when I see others struggling with another BFN.

I look forward to getting to know some of you better and having you all to talk to through this process. Now to suffer through the rest of this TWW. AF is due around the 23rd (I'm always irregular by a couple of days, unfortunately).

Hi 0hF0y! I'm new to the boards too. I'm in my TWW too, with AF due around the 24th. Though my TWW is really more like 3 weeks, but I figure I can test at 2 weeks, which is Saturday. I've been scouring the boards here for symptoms too. Sometimes I feel like this is it! But most of the time I think this month was another dud.

I'm glad to hear how much the boards here have helped you, and glad to meet you here . Sending you luck for your TWW!

I am ending my tww on Saturday. So far, no sign of af. I typically have pre- menstrual spotting that lasts 3-4 days before my period, and tomorrow is the last day to notice that as I am pretty sure I ovulated before Saturday and my cycles are always normal- meaning within 27-30 day range. I so hope this is my month, but I too stalked this board for the 5.5 years leading to my trying to conceive to see if I could symptom spot. I hope we get lucky soon.....

Hi Ladies!! What a long, long two weeks.

I have been obsessing over symptoms for so long... this month I've had an all new symptom. I've had persistent dull cramping. Similar to AF. It has been there for at least 5-6 days. This has never happened before.

There are other little signs, too. But those I've had before and I try not to get too excited over them. The cramping has be interested though. I think if I google "cramps and bfp" one more time I may go crazy! Hahaha.

Good luck ladies, I hope we're all celebrating soon!

Right?! A very long two weeks. The cramping sounds promising! Anything that's new and different is a good sign. I have a good feeling for you. Let us know what happens!! FX!

I'm testing tomorrow. Not feeling like I'll get a BFP, but I have to check. Had some interesting twinges and pains today. Good luck!

Thank you!!! I sure hope!!! I'm addicted to POAS!! I got tired of spending so much $$ on all those tests and ordered the Wondfo tests on Amazon... which now I see may have been a mistake. Now I want to test three times a day!! Haha.

Sending up a prayer and have my fingers crossed for you!! I hope you get that BFP!!!!!

I got a BFN today. . I'm at 15dpo, so I would think I'm out. But AF isn't expected until Nov. 24 because of my weird long cycles. So I guess you and I will know for sure around the same time. But at least now I can relax a little and maybe time will pass faster. Unless I start feeling really strong symptoms that don't feel normal, I don't think I'll test again until AF is a few days late.

I'll have to check out those Wondfo tests. The First Response ones I have are $13 for a pack of 3, so it's a lot to spend each time.

I got a bfn too on cd 14 (I think). Still waiting for af to start, but I did start spotting Friday. I am hoping that I start af today (not because I want to.) I need to move on and every time I think I might just spot, af starts, so I have to monitor an could test again around thanksgiving if I don't see a normal af, but I am pretty sure I am out as I have cramps and more blood today than brown, so we will see. I will just have to try some more. At least I was late, that means we did something right it maybe just didn't stick.....IDK this has never happened to me so we will see....
