Please keep your fingers crossed for me and can I be moved to Waiting to Know please
Oh and if anyone wants to take a peek at my chart its in my siggy. Maybe you can see something I don't.
Thanks all

I'm sending sticky vibes

Beloved Thanks for the hugs! I am trying to get him better but, every time I think his fever is gone it comes back! I am just hoping he gets better! That really stinks that the dollar store did not have any tests! How anoying! There weren't any at my dollar store either that was why I tested with a FRER and I was really happy with the results. I think Lauren used a dollar store test for her first one but, she could hardly see it so she tried a FRER and it showed up nice! Anyway, Good luck to you with testing again tomorrow!! I am sure your line will be a little darker but, I could "really" see it very well today!!

Thank you loulie i can not believe I still made it in June!! It is unreal!!

So I was wondering if any one knows how I got all those plus signs under my name??? I don't know how to do that but, they are there now!! Someone loves me!

Can I be added to the June BFPs Please?? Thank you!!

Ooo mmmm ggggg!!!

So, I am gone for almost 3 days with crazy party stuff, my house still looks like a bomb hit it but i just can;t stand on my feet anymore... and I come on here, and start working forward from page 22 or so.... and I havent finished it all... but I had to stop reading and say

OOOMMMGGG!!!!!!! BELOVEDK and SKEETER!!!!!

what an AMAZING month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BELOVED - you got your wedding baby!!!!! aaaaaaaaaah that is SO clear. saw it in all three without straining at all. Congrats to you and DH!! oh, and believe it, that's a pretty good line for 11 DPO!!!


and Skeeter- we told you to remain optimistic- and your good vibes made that thing stick!!! SO glad that you didnt get too down, and SO SO happy for you and your DH and DS. (hope DS is better now?) - er, sorry he's still sick, skeeter. sending sticky vibes your way, and non-sticky vibes DS's way!!

I am SO SO SO happy for you both!
:::::::::: ::::


AFM, still catching up... and forgot to temp both mornings. may have had a bit too much to drink lass night, but almost trying to do things the opposite of last pg, so as to have the opposite outcome... maybe difficult for some to understand but i figure, there are women who dont even know for weeks and drink like fish... i just enjoyed a few coronas. now i really want to test, but am afraid i'll want to punch myself in the face for last night. ...
and i want to be a no-stresser no tester...
someone talk me down!!

LZP - I know you're crazy busy with your party this weekend, but I've been chart stalking and I need to know your temps for the last two days, lol.

awww.. I LOVE that you stalk my chart!! !!! unfortunately, since i hid my thermo since there were like 1000 people in my house i forgot to temp both mornings. got up and brushed teeth right away. DUMB. now i cant even obsess over my own chart this week!!!!!

you're looking like you might O tomorrow...!!!! ED: Make that TODAY!!!! You better not be on here, you and DH better be DTD!!!!!!

[skeeter30]

LZP Thank you so much for the congrats, sticky vibes for me and un sticky vibes for DS!! That is so sweet of you!! He is still running that pesky fever but, I am still optimistic...hope it's gone tomorrow!!

That stinks about not temping for the past 2 days!! That might drive me a little nutty if I were you! I will try to talk you down! I would say don't test for at least 4 more days. I tested twice before this morning, once at 8dpo and once at 10, both BFNs. What a difference that few days makes!! I can even feel my symptoms now and I am so happy to report...My spotting has stopped today!! Good luck to you!! I am sending lots of your way in the hopes that you will soon join me over in the March DDC!!

I'm glad it's not creepy.

I'm sorry to hear that you weren't able to temp, but I hope you had a wonderful time!


AFM: I've been having a hard time temping at the same time ever day. My cat has decided that she wants to wake up and make a lot of noise an hour earlier than usual and it's annoying the heck out of me. Also, I've had very little CM this cycle for some reason... Maybe I haven't been drinking enough water? I'm not sure. I'm somewhat hopeful that I Oed today, but I'm not really sure. I think my DH is tired out, but I'm going to try to talk him into it.

[BelovedK]

Oztok5, I had hardly ANY CM this cycle, and got a BFP!! I guess it was far up there, I wouldn't worry about that. About the temping, could you set your cellphone or some other alarm to wake you really early, before the cat usually gets up , temp and just go back to sleep? If you have a thermometer with memory, you wouldn't even have to turn on the light.

LZP, I do understand what you mean about doing things differently. I have been for the last couple of months, I JUST started back up on prenatals and folic acid and my other suupplements. I used to be obsessed with my supplements and everything having to do with TTC. I am weaning off of coffee, I had a cup yesterday, and will slowly reduce down to decaf.

afm,

Tested again this morning, the line is about the same, maybe a teeeeny bit darker. I'm going to take a pic in a minute. It has finally hit me. Seeing how pink it is in the pictures and when I hold it under a light has got me convinced it is real.

I feel the beginnings of nausea. I coughed last night, and nearly threw up. seriously, I thought I would just throw up right there, but I didn't feel nauseous at that time, it was the coughing... I also felt a little eeeehhh when it was time to decide what to eat for lunch. I can tell it is coming, I hope it is not bad.

So much for losing weight, I have been really upset about the excess weight I have been carrying. I was finally really motivated to do something about my eating habits, I actually cried the other night after seeing some of my wedding pics in which I looked really big (for me)

Oh, I have had NO symptoms to obsess over. I have felt twinges down there, but I always do. I felt crampy, but I always do. It has not even been that bad this month.My BBs are not even that sore.

I'm going to Xpost this

[waylonsmama]

Good Morning Ladies.
Many Congratulations Beloved and Skeeter!!!!!!::::::
Wishing you ladies a happy and healthy 9 months!!!!!
So I am hoping to O this week. I am on CD 9....I am really hoping that this is our month. If we conceive this cycle we would be able to tell our close family in person at DS birthday party. :::
I am trying to wean myself off coffee...been mixing decaf in. And I started taking prenatals last week. Hopefully it will help.

[BelovedK]

waylonsmama, I am weaning off of coffee too. I am at the coffeeshop right now drinking mostly decaf. It is better to do it gradually, nothing is worth the headache that can come with sudden detoxing from caffeine (btw, my son is named Weylin, you don't hear it that often )

I just took a pic of today's test. It is about the same

[waylonsmama]

Very Cool!!! We almost spelled DS name that way. I have only met 1 other Waylon.
Your line is getting darker!!!! :::

[skeeter30]

Thank you waylonsmama I will keep my : for you and I will send lots of your way!! Good luck! I hope you will be able to report some good news in a few weeks!!

Beloved How awesome!! Your line is getting darker!! Where did you end up finding the tests?? Also, don't you feel just crazy, like this is so unreal?? It is going to take a while for this to sink in for me! All of a sudden I have all this stuff swimming around in my head!! I am starting to get weepy over it too!! I am just so excited!!

[jenfl]

We really need a new thread, huh? I'm currently on sick toddler watch, but I'll try to do it later today if no one gets to it first.

I went to another $ store, and bought 7 tests The lady looked at me funny (I don't really care)


It is starting to sink in. I may put it in my sig, I am telling friends but not family yet. I am having twinges down there, and feeling funny. I hope this is not a pukey pregnancy, but it would be worth it.

I am worried that I will get off of my roll when it comes to my fitness programs and dancing. I am so good about working out every day now, if i stop, it is really hard to get back into it.

It's good to see you in the DDC I do look forward to the next 9 months, and can't wait to meet this little bean

[LZP]

Thanks for talking me down Skeeter (attempting to)... actually, I am a member of the no testers/no stressers... and i have a confession to make. I tested last night.

i dont want to get my hopes up... but after 5 min, there was nothing... then 5 min later, i came back, and the test field was suddenly all darker (like a dark white, if that makes sense?) and there was DEF a faint pink line. i first saw it with no light on in the BR, but then turned on the overhead and it was there... but then the darkness in the field went away and the line is SORT of there, in the most "SUPER FAINT, ONLY A WELL TRAINED LINE SPOTTER WOULD SEE IT" kind of a way... so i dont know what to think. i think it's awefully early to see anything real... and I didnt tell DH that i can see something with my superman eyes. I held it up to the light and everything.... and you could def see 2 lines in the silouhette. (I took pics but didnt bring the camera to upload.. maybe tonight i will play with them.)

I used an internet cheapy. has anyone else had the experience with those that the whole field looks almost "extra saturated" out of nowhere, and a line appears not immediately, but after? I did everything by the book... dip 5 sec in pee, then place flat onto clean non-absorbant surface, etc....

i am SERIOUSLY not trying to fake myself out here.... i just am curious, and i have only one test left, so i think i ought to save it till at least 12 DPO, even though my test day was supposed to be 7/7/09 !! whoops. gosh i am incorrigible.

also, my temp nosedived today, but i had the fan blowing on me all night and woke up with no covers. hmph. who knows what to think. now i will try again to be a non-obsesser...


BANANA - did you have anything eventful occur this weekend? I've been thinking about you living in limbo over there....!

Grapes- i stalked your chart last night- so sorry AF showed... i was SO SO SO rooting for you this time- i thought it was "the month" for you!!!

BelovedK - i thought you looked GREAT! at your wedding- but can understand wanting to just take a few off... now you will have a nice excuse- just gain a few, and then take them plus more off after the babe is born - but DO keep up your exercise, even if less intense than usual (says the girl who hates exercise, but forces herself only sometimes.)

[GrapesBunch]

Happy Monday!

CONGRATS Skeeter and Beloved! :

AFM: AF did show Friday not more than an hour after posting here. So though I was not successful getting pregnant this cycle I am happy to report that I did not have ANY spotting this cycle. I am super pumped! This was my first cycle in 8 months and the first since being off birth control that I didn't spot. I had normal cramps during the first two days but if I wasn't charting my BBT I wouldn't have even known AF was about to show. I'm gonna give the credit to the maca I took this month. I missed about a week before O, but took it the other three weeks of my cycle. : the maca will help me conceive this cycle.

Could I be move to WAITING TO O! Thanks!

It's making me feel better that you didn't have much CM this cycle either!

As far as the waking up thing goes, I didn't have any issues with my current time for the last few months, so I'm going to give the cat a few days to get back to her regular schedule. I'm not sure what's up, but in the past she has always slept later, so I'm hoping it's just a weird fluke of a week, and we'll be back to normal soon. If I'm still having trouble getting a consistent time at the end of the cycle, maybe I'll try moving my temp time an hour earlier for next month.

Oh, and I can see your line today easier than your one from yesterday! I'm excited for you!


LZP - I'm kinda freaking out that you think you saw something! : I'm sure it's going to be a long few days for you to wait until 12 dpo! I hope your temp was a fluke and it's back up tomorrow!

Annie - I think if you are within 30 minutes or so of your usual time, then FF counts it as normal. but a whole hour could be different... still take the temp and record it, and just note that it's a different time... at least if it's a whole week, you could still see a trend even if it's off by a few hundredths.

AFM, i am a little freaking out, but a little not. only because it didnt show at all within like 5-6 minutes, then i left the room.... when i came back, it looked different, and i am just concerned that it's an evap, or some kind of an error. I will wait until Thursday morning, maybe Friday... if i can. (honestly, i might go to the DS tonight- who am I kidding?!?!) I got a clear positive on digi at 10 dpo last time, but i want to do things differently. i was SO trying not to test. not very hard, apparently!! I wish i had a dollar tree near work.

[HappiLeigh]

Skeeter and Beloved!!!!! Congrats!!! ::::

BANANA - did you have anything eventful occur this weekend? I've been thinking about you living in limbo over there....!

Still hanging out in limbo land. Just tested a few mins ago and got a barely-there line like on the cheapy within the time limit but then used a FRER in the same pee and it was negative. I didn't take pics since I was waiting for the second test, and now it's after the time limit. Like you said, trying not to fake myself out here. I'm gonna count them both as negative because I can't tell if it's an evap line on the cheap one. I'll call my doc again later and he'll want to do more tests. Also, the midwife I talked to thinks I O'ed twice this month (says EWCM always/only means O...I dunno), and FF definitely thinks I just O'ed a few days ago. Midwife said I could still be pregnant and have that 2nd O. Who knows, but time will surely tell.

Gotta run to aqua aerobics...good luck to you LZP and everyone else who is waiting/dying to know.
