Welcome to the 'Two Week Wait'

[ttcbabyisom]

Tested today with AF due Friday and it was a bfn. Will probably test again tomorrow and again until AF hits or those two lines show up. I didn't get that depressed today so I was proud of myself. Good luck still to everyone!

goood luck athens, you're still in the game!!!

My af is due Friday too. FX for us I am testing Wed if I can hold off tomorrow. Waking up its so hard not to test because I know first urine is the best to use...

Your chart is looking great. Good luck sweetie!!!

 

[ttcbabyisom]

Ugh oh.... I am getting crampy. Really hope its not Af I had no symptoms to this point and now this... praying its implantation

Your chart looks great!!! C'mon bfp!

I still can't believe you're pregnant!!! So happy for you!!!

Just tested BFN I'm only 9DPO though so I will try again tmrw I suppose

You still have a chance! How long is your LP usually?

Thanks! My fingers are crossed. I really feel different. My cycles are normally around 30 to 31 days if that's what LP means.... Sorry I'm not really sure of all the terms

LP is Luteal phase, which is the number of days between ovulation and AF (your period). A normal LP is anywhere from 10-16 days long. Anything less than 10 is a sign of a Luteal Phase Defect, but that can be fixed with B-complex.

Ella, i'm LOVING your chart!!!

I tested yesterday and it was a bfn...this morning I had a very little bit of brown discharge...I've never had that before...is it AF coming? or is it possible that I could just now be implanting?

 

[IceQueen86]

Ice-- im go glad you said that.. I was starting to think my chart was looking little odd. It drove me crazy not to POAS today. Tomorrow I will test and don't you think I will get my answer?? I will be 12dpo?

I think you should get your answer. When did you get your bfp with your daughters? Probably after AF was late?

GL tomorrow and GL to you too Kelly, waiting for some positive news!!!

Unfortunately it can be anything, it can be that your AF is coming, it can be implantation and it can be spotting caused by pregnancy (no real bleeding will show up). So only time will tell...

Ella, i'm LOVING your chart!!!

It is looking good, but I'm trying (semi-unsuccessfully) to not get my hopes up just yet. I'm hoping tomorrow's temp is up too, but I'm bracing myself for a drop down...I mean, I woke up really early this morning, took my temp and got so disappointed that it was lower that I was pretty much wallowing...then I realized that it was like 4:30am and that was probably why it was so much lower. Low and behold, when I woke up at my normal time, it was up again.

But the way I was feeling about the first temp was pretty eye-opening...I need to not put so much of my hopes into these temps. I thought about not temping at all, but I think I'd just be more worried about things. I'd rather see the slow decent than worry about what it could have been if I had temped all day long. So, I'm going to try to not worry about what the next few temps are and I'm going to try not to get worked up if they fall....but I'm really hoping they stay up!

Though, if it isn't our cycle, we've got our second appointment with the fertility doctor at the end of August, so we can try again next month and then see what he says the next steps are. It's nice to have a backup plan.

Though, speaking of charts, Dani, yours is looking fabulous. I hope the second round of Clomid has worked its magic!

Yes it wasn't till I was already over a month pregnant. We weren't trying but not preventing then.. and I had attitude that whats meant to be will be.. Not mistakes by any means. this time I WANT IT SO DAMN BAD and yet it seems harder. thanx so much ice.. I I will keep you all posted first thing in the am with my results... (say a prayer for me please) and yes Kelly I will prob cry to, its mentally draining but I promise the outcome of this stress is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. Being a parent is the most amazing experience and everyday is something more special. GL TO all testing and KMFX

I totally hear ya Ella! It's SO hard not to get our hopes up. Especially when we have symptoms and a great looking chart! I've done that before too with the temps and it freaks ya out...then you take it again at the right time and if it's where it should be, it's such a relief. I'll take mine 3 or 4 times in a row if i didn't like the first one and sometimes record the one in the middle. Like that's going to matter at all in the end when AF comes. Geesh...we do put too much hope in these dang thermometers! i hate it but it totally will make or break my day and my mood. Ugh.

Yes, having a back up plan is a must for all of us ttc'ers! Seriously. It's how I get through those first few days of AF without wanting to kill myself. it's funny, i'm sitting here looking at a coupon for $10 off one CB OV test for next cycle. It's a fancy one. I'm excited to use it. How crazy is that??? He, he...

Got another bfn today. I'm really hoping it's just too early. I don't really have any pms symptoms and af is like 3 days away. I was pretty bummed with today's. Fx for tomorrow.

 

[LovingMyGirls]

hope others have some positive news!!

Aww Don't give up hope yet, look i tested 19dpo and you saw how faint my line was. Let's keep FX that your temps will stay up and you can test again in few days. How you feeling? Nothing is going on?

You still have a chance. You should wait until the day your AF should show up and test again then. GL!

 

[dovkav123]

Sorry for BFN ladies. I saw a silver lining on the clowd today. I wish you to see two lines!
My husband wants me to test but I'd rather buy a kg of strawberries!!!
I bought some poppy seeds in shell(green). I'll dry them and carry in my purse. It will help me to get preggo. It is a firtility plant.

thanx sweets. No symptoms since the mild cramping the other day.. I don't feel bloated or anything so that's a plus. How were you so patient. I admit today I got little sick feeling for a second seeing the . I feel I don't even know for certain if im actually ovulating.. my test was SO dark on the OPK and we hit the right days but I heard that your CM should dry up after ovulation but I still have little C CM but not much.. but its there. I got no sleep last night I was so excited. I will retest on Friday. Its frustrating because I have no idea how long my cycles are since coming off BCP and also how long my LP is

 

[TLB1986]

for me... showed her face today. On the up side I'm starting Femara on Friday.
