AFM - Not much to report here...just 5dpo and trying to Don't really have any signs except **TMI WARNING** I had a TON of creamy cm on my tp this morning! I always have to check internally for cm, so seeing so much on the tp gives me hope

Thanks. I'm kind of bummed, but it's not too bad. Technically, we weren't really "trying" this cycle, and there was only one chance during my fertile time. Looking forward to this cycle though.

I'm actually more annoyed about the (sorry, tmi) massive amounts of flow right now. I usually don't have so much. Today I had to put on one of the super thick pads I bought postpartum, thinking it was a nice solution to the post birth flow. But it turns out I wasn't paying attention, and they're really pads for incontinence. Oops. So, I'm using a lady diaper now for my flow, hehe. But I wasn't about to let it go to waste.

Ok, that embarrassing story aside...

The abundance of creamy CM sounds encouraging! I had a lot of that when pregnant with my son, even very early on.

First of all, its very economical of you to use your current resources for this recent problem

Secondly, if it makes you feel better I spilled pee all over my bathroom (and myself) last night. I think this process is rife with embarrassment.

LOL! Dude, don't worry about it. Not like anyone is going to look in your knickers and say 'omg she has an incontinence pad on' : I have horribly heavy flows as well. Greatfully not very long, only a few days, but heavy. I used to have a 6 day heavy period and then I found out that I am sensitive to the chemicals in the pad and switched to mama cloth. Since the switch my heavy days went down from 6 days to 1 or 2 days. It's nice!

Totally. I can't tell you how many time's I've been getting a 'sample' and end up missing and getting it everywhere!

O.K., I just have to share. I'm only 7dpo and already I'm more tired than usual and vaguely nauseous. But it's way to early to poas. So I have to try to be zen and patient. If these symptoms get more pronounced, though, I'll probably be testing sooner rather than later.

Also wanted to say Congrats to Pirogi and send s to sweet.pea

*squeee!* that's awesome! There is no shame in testing early! If that is what helps you chill, go for it! Just realize that you aren't out till the red lady sings

Weekend Check-In

Name: MoOnFiReGlOw
Date: 5/15
Where are you in your cycle: cd29, 8dpo

Symptoms if they apply: I don't know if I'm looking too far into things, but I got a TON of creamy cm a few days back and yesterday afternoon I was cramping BAD for about 15 - 20 min a few times. I'm really hoping it was a bean burrowing in and not gas or an early af!
When are you thinking of testing: FF says to wait till Tues (a day after af is due) so I'm going to *attempt* to wait that long :
Thoughts: I'm surprised that even after trying for a year I get so hopeful that this cycle will be it. I'm shocked that I still read into every little sign and twinge and haven't given up yet! I know that sounds pretty fatalistic, but I'm proud of myself for not letting go of our dream to conceive another bebe.
Appointments: not until we move to CO so I can get set up with a RE
Any new regimes, ie herbs, medications, mantras etc: nope!
Do you have any stress triggers: Not really right now...probably mostly just getting the house clean. I let it go while studying for finals...
What is working to help you be stress-free this cycle: Knitting
Partners feelings if applicable: He's neither here no there, but he was concerned when I yelped and had to lay down b/c of the cramps yesterday. I told him they felt like af cramps but he knows enough about my cycle to know it isn't due yet and asked what it could mean. I told him I had no clue, I don't want him getting worked up about this cycle!
Plans for this weekend: Cleaning and knitting! I'll post pics of the shorties when I'm done

not sure if this is the right place to post this...

I have a kind of silly question.

Im 12dpo and tested neg this morning on a test that i got from dealextreme.com at $1.75 fro 10. They are probably less sensitive than 25mcg which in my experience has shown a pos on 11dpo.
Also, i dont feel any pms at all, tho i usually do around now.

So my silly question is, do i
1)test tomorrow on 13dpo, risk a false negative and get depressed., or..

2)just wait until af, or test on day 14, or 15 if there is no af?

What do you think?

Honestly hun, if you aren't sure of the sensitivity of the test, I'd wait till after af is due It's a bit easier said than done though!
