Welcome to the ttc in fall group..........AUTUMN ACORNS!!!!

[trgirl308]

You'll be good I'm sure, you held out pretty good this cycle! I'm here for you, I would really like to wait until Oct 28th.

See, we have a Halloween party to attend on the 29th. Have I mentioned that Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday? Blows Christmas and 4th of July clean out of the water. And we all know how MM likes to blow sh!t up.

I plan on keeping to the "drink til it's pink" mantra, don't plan on testing until the 30th, at the earliest. No way I'm not drinking at this party unless I know 100% for sure that I'm preggos. Once again, this is where ignorance is bliss and being ignorant will get me exactly what I want.

'drink til it's pink' <-- I've never heard that! Love it!!

Okay, ladies, I need some encouragement/advice/reality check. I am about 15dpo. I am 2 days late. My cycle is clockwork. The only time in recent years I have ever been late was when I came of my bc pills in June. The cycle after I was back on track and have been ever since.

I took a test yesterday morning. I took a test this afternoon after holding my urine for 5 1/2 hours. I am so frustrated and upset!!!! Did I ovulate late? I feel like I'm coming down with the flu or something, and that doesn't help how I feel. I keep having cramps down there but I NEVER have cramps until days 2-3 of a/f.

I used the 1 dollar cheapie tests from the dollar store. Could they be the problem? Could it still be too early? I just don't know what to think and I do not like this at all. I'm so emotional right now, too. DH noticed blue veins across the dark part of my bbs last night and knows I'm now late and is getting excited, but I'm so scared to let him down if I'm not preggers.

Any help/advice/anything is SO appreciated!!! I feel so lost!

Last year was our first Halloween in our current house, the previous one was a 3rd floor apt so no trick or treaters, so it was really our first Halloween living together. We got so excited and decorated the whole house... and we were the only ones on the street and there were not a lot of kids... it was sad. But we'll probably do it all again this year, and the rest of the street can just suck! We bought our costumes months ago... I love candy!

Andielina, you are not out until she comes! But bfp is still possible, sometimes it can take a little longer for your hcg levels to get up. I would say try a frer, and if you keep getting bfns and no af, then see if you get a blood test done. Your symptoms sound positive, I hope you get an answer soon!

andielina-i used a dollar store cheapie this morning fmu and it was neg. used a first response this afternoon and very faint positive try again in 2 days with a different test

Thank you so much!! And congrats! They are just so obviously negative... I can't even pretend they have a faint line!! And DH and I just want to know! I hate waiting... but if it means a in the end I guess I can hold out.

Congratulations on yours!!! I hope it's a very happy and healthy 9 mos. for you.

This would be our first and so everything is so new and unpredictable. Thank you trgirl and jrock for the kind words!

I am going to be shower poof this year! Made a great big poofy ball of tulle on a tank top and sewed a rope loop on the neck. It's awesome!

Last year I was poop, lol, I am a nurse and its just funny to me. I had all brown clothes and glued popcorn all over it. Then I got a pair of the plastic bedpans from the hospital and glued a pair of flip flops in them and rhinestones all over them! I was fantastic, lmao

I love halloween!

Good luck with the testing Andielina. Hopefully, it'll turn positive soon.

Congrats jrock!

So my gyno piddled around sending my bc prescription to the pharmacy so that gave me a week to waver . . . and waver . . .
Finally, after much debate, I told DH it was his choice---I was going to bed; "Wake me and tell me to take a pill if that's want you want."

And . . .

he didn't!

SO I'm back in for 1 more month. CD 15, average cycle 38 days. I hope I'm not too late.

 

[trgirl308]

Yay Mousechicky! Good luck!

 

[pichi]

i've been cramping for the last week but i've not had a temp rise so i don't know what the hell's going on ¬___¬ don't even know how long my cycle will be this month. i jump from 28 - 38! annoying

 

[Andielina]

Yay Mousechicky!! Good luck!! Fx'd for you a million times! I woke up this morning and still nothing, so I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic. I did dream however that a/f came and I was SO disappointed. But then I woke up to find the is still far away!! I told DH and his words were. "Good. Keep it that way!" Bless. :smile:

Hang in there pichi. My cycle didn't have a definite temp rise either, but based on my cm I'm certain I did ovulate. Temping is great but it's not necessarily 100%.

So thanks ladies for the crossed fingers and prayers. We would be so ecstatic to get our Autumn Acorn! I'll keep everyone updated. I'm going to try and wait until Friday to test again. Have a great Tuesday!

 

[pixie23]

congrats jrock!

you're not out yet andielina - I'm not sure what your cycles are like, but if you have a short lp then you will probably be a few days late before you get that BFP. Your symptoms sound promising.

love your costume ideas cassiec!

[jrockwe1]

thanks everyone for the congrats. still nervous bc its early...not supposed to get AF til the 6th/7th and i was reading on a few sites that 30%of early detected bfp end in mc i got another this morning, still faint. so idk.i hope it sticks! told dh, he asked when i will have a belly haha like its gonna magically appear overnight...good luck to everyone *baby dust to all*

 

[jrockwe1]

andielina- i understand. im a poas addict and obsessive to the point where i take them apart, run around the house and inspect them under different lights, dig them out of the trash and look again (i know after 10 min they are invalid) it may just take a few days for your levels to get high enough. peeonastick.com has a comparison where they show which tests detect at what levels...but with my son, i didnt test pos til somewhere between 7-9 weeks. thats why im cautious on this one. good luck to you

Hi ladies...I've been MIA a few days and I seem to have missed so much! Any exciting news?

Had my grandad's funeral yesterday which was a really emotional day and saw OH off on his work trip this morning, which was a little more than I could deal with. Got in some action this morning, so hopefully my bases will be covered if I O while he's away...otherwise I'll just need to get some good in when he's back...

 

[ttcbabyw1]

Congrats jrock!!

It's my day off today...should be cleaning, but I can't get going! It's 1pm and I officially have not done anything...
