The one and only...POAS party thread!! Don't enter if you can't handle strobe lights!

[TTC74]

Congrats simple! That's great! We have the new FRERs too. I didn't know there were places that still have the old ones. Oh well. I find that Answer are almost as sensitive. So, I always order a couple packs of FRERs, a bunch of Answers, and, of course, I keep a buttload of ICs on hand (I use baby tests brand). I know I am over-prepared and spend way too much money on POAS, but hey, I love POAS! LOL.

AFM - I'm not sure if I'll even be in the game this month. I have an appt with a neurosurgeon on Monday about a herniated cervical disc that I have. If we are scheduling surgery, it depends on when it can be scheduled. If we can schedule it immediately so that I think I can be off narcotics by 7 DPO or so, I'll go for it this month. If I can't get in that window, though. I'll probably be out this month.

Also, I can't help but remember that my oldest dd is getting married Mar 25th. I'd hate to be in an ugly post-surgical collar for her wedding. So, if we are going to schedule it immediately, I'll be asking if it's safe for me to pop off the collar for 20-40 mins for pics! I sure hope it will be. I sure hope it will be. I don't want to be forced to make a decision between staying in pain longer or making my dd's wedding pics ugly!

Hi ladies; I'm back after a mental health break with good news. On valentine's day, Lalo and I celebrated out two year dating anniversary AND GOT MARRIED!! Also I'm on cd 15 after an entire year without a true cycle!! We are hopeful, but are coming at this from a healthier emotional state. We have three new cousins, one boy already here and two girls due any day now. I've been teaching myself to crochet and sew and loving making ooak gifts for all the kiddos. My 9old got an honor role and an art award at school. My seven year old is humble in spite of the constant praise raining down on him from all his teachers. Current symptoms: slightly nauseated (especially upon waking and after eating) frequent urination, some breast tenderness, headaches, backaches, smell sensitivity and aversions, loss of appetite, and fatigue. FX!!

Glad you're back, Married and feeling much better. We all wondered where you'd got to. Glad to see you back here, Sending you lots of baby dust and I hope you get that BFP soon, certainly sounds hopeful with your cycle sorting itself out.

 

[Querida87]

Thanks!! I decided to go ahead and start temping again jic this isn't my cycle. Now if only it was time to test! lol

 

[TTC74]

I have 2 I'd like looked at and gather opinions. My chart is wonky. While I'm pretty sure I did O, I'm not sure when. So, on with the lines!

One is a tweaked wondfo. There is a second line where it should be that runs from the top to halfway down. Pic taken within 10 min.

Second is an IC. It was not taken within 10 mins. There is a clear line with color, though.

 

[TTC74]

Here is the IC.

 

[froggyfrog]

I see something! Fx!

 

[TTC74]

Here's another one. Wondfo. Colorless line.

 

[mommyof2peas]

I see something, but not sure I can call it yet Keep testing. That temp spike though looks great!

 

[TTC74]

I think I see a second line. See anything?

 

[Lost7]

I can't see anything. Are you really testing as early as 3DPO?

 

[TTC74]

Lol! I don't think I'm 3 DPO. I had surgery about 10 days ago and I'm pretty sure it threw my temps out of whack.

Hello

I used to pop on this board a few months back when ttc, so thought I'd pop bCk and say hello if there's ones for one more? X

 

[Catiren]

whats the earliest bfp anyones ever gotten? with my daughter it was 7 days after the only day i had sex for a month.. i dont know the dpo so i always say 7 dpo since im guessing i ovulated that day.

 

[TTC74]

Wow! I think 7 DPO takes the cake! I've never seen one that early.

 

[sillysamy]

Think thats the earliest

[Kuji]

It was 10dpo for me which seems to be a common time for bfps! But to be fair I didn't test 9dpo so I have no idea if I would have had a pos or neg. Only 8dpo which was a neg, and 10dpo which was a bfp confirmed with a frer, cheapie and a digi

 

[Keepsmiling91]

On FRER, I got clear neg 9dpo, and the faintest bfp at 10dpo, I didn't even notice it , got a bfp again at 11dpo, so went back to check and there was a squinter on my 10dpo x

 

[TTC74]

I got a faint pos on a 10 miu IC on 9 DPO. Neg FRER. Then, a clear pos FRER at 10 DPO.

 

[Lost7]

I got a faint pos on a 10 miu IC on 9 DPO. Neg FRER. Then, a clear pos FRER at 10 DPO.

Were your FRER the weird 'bent' ones like the CB plus?

I ask because with my BFP my FRER gave a very clear line, where as the 10miu IC was really faint (barely there). In my opinion FRER are definitely worth the money. Such a strong visible line as well.
