katespade thanks. Trying to look on the bright side I didnt have cramps for 2 weeks like I did last month, my pms was not bad, and I used to get bad pre period anxiety and that didnt happen this month!
Cd 1 here. Ds was so sweet this morning. I told H my temp went down and DS gave me a hug and said "it's ok mama" he doesnt even know what it means hahaha but it was sweet.
This is the sweetest thing ever. I'm so sorry for cd1.

I am also bummed this morning... my temp is trending down. I have no idea if it means I am out yet, I just feel so so sad. My breasts are HUGE and swollen, puffy nipples (usually a PMS symptom for me) and I had crazy heartburn last night which I've only ever had 2 or 3 other times in my whole life (never associated with PMS as far as I remember).
PennyCandy - I'm sorry about your BFN. It could just be too early! When does AF usually show up for you?
I don't really know. I just got my IUD out on 8/22. I ovulated shortly after, but had a really long lp. Before DS, I had a short lp, anywhere from 10-12 days.
seeyalater52 - I've got my fingers crossed for you! Maybe it's still early enough that it could be an implantation dip?
Theoretically it could be implantation. I am VERY sure of my ovulation date and 8dpo would be a very normal time for implantation. It just looks funny to have it down two days in a row instead of a nice neat little dip. I will feel a lot better if my temp goes back up tomorrow.
I have fingers crossed for all of us in the last few days of TWW this week.
As for me, my nipples are still super tender (which is unusual in a "normal" cycle for me) and I keep getting random waves of nausea. I've also had more hunger pains than I typically have -- which is usually the only time I'm NOT slightly nauseous lately. I'm hoping it's a good sign -- I had nausea for the CP, and I know my mom had pretty bad morning sickness when she was preggers with my little sister. Also, temp is still trending up (I think that -.1 blip I had one day last week was me breathing with my mouth open...with the weather changing, I've had congestion off and on all month).

This is going to be the longest week ever.
These are all such promising signs! I hope this is it for you!

YAY! How many DPO are you now? When are you planning to test?
I would have wagered money that today would be CD1. I woke up at 2am with a raging headache, which only happens during my period. Alas, nothing yet. I fairly regularly start my period first thing in the morning too.

YAY! How many DPO are you now? When are you planning to test?
I'm 9 DPO, according to FF. My breasts have been tender for a while (far earlier than implantation, I would think, but whatever)...the nausea, on the other hand, mostly hit on Saturday. FF is suggesting I test on Sunday, but I'm not sure I can't wait that long. I might test on Saturday (but I might not...I'm going out with a couple girlfriends that afternoon, so either result will probably give me emotions that are hard to handle in public without getting questions).
Does anyone make adjustments to their workout routines during their TWW? Go lighter, or less often, or not at all?
H is starting to get his hopes up about this cycle, and he mentioned this morning that he's wondering if I should skip the gym until my appointment on Wednesday.

I'm finding that it's so hard to decide whether it's worse to see a BFN because you tested early or worse to sit and wonder what you would see if you tested!

I’m sorry @melsamooney. It’s so unfair. katespade & @writererin, your symptoms sound so promising! seeyalater52, I wouldn’t worry about your temps yet—they are still so high. Keeping my fingers crossed for you lessel.

My RE swears that as long as the workouts are part of your normal routine it’s completely fine. But since I am insane as previously established, I am not super convinced. I also don’t really exercise on a regular basis anymore so I’m using that as my excuse. My advice is to do whatever makes you the most comfortable. Plus it could help to de-stress, which has its own benefits.

Honestly, I don't work out as much as I should in the first place, but I haven't stopped doing what I normally do. Not that this will probably help at all, but there is a very, very pregnant woman in the barbell class I go to once a week, so she's still working out -- I noticed she does modify some things (for example, she doesn't do crunches or push-ups, for obvious reasons), but she doesn't seem to slow down at all.

That's what I was thinking. I've only been working out regularly for the past three months or so, but that seems like long enough to be considered normal routine. Today's workout is all upper body, so I told H I would keep the weight a little lighter than normal and we could make tomorrow a rest day. He agreed that seemed like a good compromise.

I read that as a “test day” tomorrow and literally clapped my hands on excitement. I think I am overly invested. That sounds like an excellent plan though.

Hahaha. I wish! I want to pee on everything right now. LOL.
Yeah, I think I'm going to have to test on Saturday if I don't want to wait until Monday. I just remembered that I have to be at church early on Sunday to play handbells...so unless I want to get up even earlier than I normally would to POAS, I'm going to have to test the day before.
Another thing I'm realizing...maybe I have a more sensitive sense of smell? I don't know. Our cats' litter boxes were stinking earlier today, so I cleaned them...but the only box that had uncovered poo was the one in the basement (one floor down from me). And, I mean, our cats have pretty potent waste as it is, but I usually don't get sickened by the stench a floor away...

Girl, I don’t test early, but even I am having a hard time encouraging you to wait til Saturday!
When would be not a completely unreasonable time to test if I wanted to test early? I am kind of newly considering Thursday or Friday. I have no chill.

If I were you guys, I wouldn't test before 12 DPO personally. Typically, implantation happens 7-10 DPO and it takes 2 days for the HCG to be enough to show up.
