Who else is going crazy waiting to test?

*raises hand*

[katespade]

I'm trying to decide if I should ask for a test when I see my doctor on Wednesday, since I'll be 12DPO. H's birthday is Thursday, and I'm trying not to get my hopes up about how much I would love to share good news with him on his birthday.

Sore boobs, mild cramping, spotting stopped, temp is still going up... but, like I said, I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up.

That looks like a great chart katespade! Fingers crossed for you!

I think I'm going to try (TRY) to wait until next Saturday to test, which is when I'll officially be "late" if nothing shows up. I was just so disappointed by that BFN I had last month when I tested early that I don't want to risk it again. But I've been dealing with the same type of sore boobs as a few months ago (apparently my soreness is very localized in my nips), I've had watery-ish CM (I don't typically get pre-menstrual CM until the day or two before AF, and some research yesterday told me that CM often appears after implantation to protect the egg or something like that), and I've started getting just ever so slightly nauseous. Now, to be fair, the nausea might just be my head trying to find symptoms, but still.

I'm 7 DPO now, which...IF we were successful this month...that means I would have implanted early. I don't know.

Yeah, still trying not to get hopes up. But, like you, katespade, it's hard for me to not think the timing would be perfect. It would be before DH goes out of town (because his trip looks like it would fall on my next fertile days) and we would be able to tell families at the holidays.

My chart...

[melsamoony]

Tested yesterday BFN in the middle of the afternoon. Don't have any symptoms of AF....no cramping nothing so I am little hopeful. H wanted me to test today but I didnt want another BFN. I will test tomorrow if my temp doesnt drop and my period still hasnt shown. My temp usually drops 11 dpo. I am hopeful but that makes me nervous that tomorrow will make me sad.

[Deleted]

I think I'm pms'ing based on the amount of rage I have felt since yesterday and my temp is trending down so I'm probably out. I'll see what my temp does over the next couple of days and go from there.



ETA:

[katespade]

melsamoony - I'm sorry for the BFN. Hopefully it's just too early and you get a BFP tomorrow!

Fingers crossed for you too! Your chart also looks really good.

@pennycandy - Fingers crossed that your temp goes back up!

I need at least one of you guys to be done with this place. My faith in fertility needs some restoring. Lol

Good looking charts katespade @writererin @melsamooney! I hope it’s the month for all of you!

We've had a couple of BFPs around here lately, haven't we?

[lessel]

12dpo. Crampy and irrationally angry at H. So probably my period will show any nanosecond now. If not, I’ll test tomorrow. But not getting my hopes up.

I think we had one last month?  I remember somersault72 made a BFP thread recently.  But, yeah, we haven't had a boom in a while.

Oh, I don’t know. Clearly, I’m too self-absorbed to notice!

[seeyalater52]

6dpo and temp trending slightly up this morning. Maybe some small twinges in my midsection, can’t be sure. I am emotional as fuck, though, I’ve been watching This is Us and The Fosters all morning and bawling my eyes out.

So many great charts in here! I am so hopeful for everyone!

melsamoony I hope it was was just too early for your test!

@writererin we may end up being test day buddies. Next Saturday will be 13dpo and after chatting with DW this morning I think we decided on testing then and if need be testing again on Monday before I leave for my trip. She is going to be gone all day Sunday for work so it makes sense. Not sure how we will end up feeling about it when the time comes, I can kinda see us pushing it back until Sunday if we don’t feel ready but it would be a bummer to have to wake up at 6am to test and then have her gone all day.

Woo testing buddies! It sounds like a few of us might be testing next weekend. Funny how the timing worked out this month, so many of us around the same dpo.

I kinda like it! I feel like the odds have to favor success for at least some of us! That is what I am hoping anyways.

Now here’s to hoping I don’t get my period before Saturday! With my normal luteal phase I would normally get it around this Friday so keeping my fingers crossed.

katespade that chart looks GORGEOUS. I debated on whether to even post this, but I still obsessively check this page because I'm rooting for each and every one of you. ❤

[lessel]

Of course I tested this morning because I have no patience. BFN. I swear I saw a faint line but it’s totally in my head because I’m a crazy person.

Post a pic and we’ll tell you if you are crazy. This early, I’d be surprised if it wasn’t faint.

I don't see a line lessel. I'm sorry. How long is your lp normally?

[katespade]

lessel - I don't see a line.

[melsamoony]

Bfn this AM. Temp still up but I am not at all optimistic. Despite not having any cramps I can't imagine I will get a BFP as I am 12-14 dpo depending on which intepretation on FF I rely upon. I got a BFP with DS at 11 dpo so I am not feeling hopeful at all. Trying to prepare myself to see AF/a temp drop.

I’ve never temped, so not entirely sure. Typically AF starts on CD27/28 with only a few exceptions I can remember. Today is CD27, so I’m not optimistic.

Then again, I had some weird O symptoms later than expected, so who knows.
