s and more s for you and DP. I'm so sorry about her aunt. To have under a week after a diagnosis like that...with no time to adjust or say goodbye...that is so tough and heartbreaking. Of course, your DP wanted to be with her. I'm so sorry. And the BFN on top of that--
. Your chart really does look great, and without FMU, it may well have been a false negative. I really hope that tomorrow or Tuesday, you get that BFP, and that it gives you and DP a bit of hope and joy in this very hard time.
So sorry to hear about your loss. I'm sorry that you and DP have to navigate this hard and unexpected death while you're away from home. I'm holding out a lot of hope that you'll get your BFP any day now, and that maybe you can find some comfort or peace in the idea that your conception was so lined up with DP's aunt's diagnosis. Thinking of you both
.
Still no sign of AF, though, right? Stay away, AF!!! Hugs to your DP, too, for losing her aunt.
I'm sending you some of my magical cell division and implantation visions. 
But as I've mentioned before, we (esp DP) are not prepared to parent three children.

So who can know. Last time I didn't get a BFP till 12 DPO, so I'm trying to maintain low expectations and just keep testing. But now I'm so obsessed that once a day seems like so little! AHope and 2happy mamas, distract me with your possible symptoms! Or Wehrli and all the other waiting folks, distract me with your O predictions! Off to run some errands... |

your right! sorry about that.  AFM, CD15 and no sign of O, but since we're not trying this cycle, I'm not obsessing. What a relief! Trying to get the timing perfect has got to be the worst part of TTC. I think my easiest days are the first few days post-IUI when I'm not obsessing over ovulation signs *or* pregnancy signs. i'm so with you on this one... this is my 2nd cycle with the RE and it is so much less stessful knowing that i'll have u/s confirmation and trigger timing... it's soooo hard to not stress over timing! I had a great weekend. DP and I went to a local bar on Friday and sang karaoke... quite bad, in fact. We're thankful we didn't know anyone else in the bar. Saturday we drove down to Myrtle Beach hoping to catch Orianthi playing at the House of Blues. Well, Google maps had us driving all the way down to South Myrtle Beach, and it was too late when we realized the House of Blues was in North Myrtle Beach. We still had fun, though, and became very familiar with the ins and outs of MB! Yesterday DP and I attended a lesbian dance in the afternoon on a rooftop bar followed by a big house party with a great view of the fireworks. All in all, a fabulous weekend. I made no effort to avoid alcoholic beverages since there's no chance I'll be inseminating anytime soon. |

So here's a strange QOTD for anyone who wants to discuss this. Assuming that you already had (or were pregnant with) your ideal number of children, would/could you ever be a surrogate for someone else? If so, under what conditions? |

I'm just so focused on creating a baby for my own family, and too worried about finding the time and resources to create siblings for that baby down the road, to imagine having the time and energy to have a pregnancy for surrogacy. Still, I can understand why you'd consider it, and I think that being a surrogate for your KD would be an incredible and meaningful gift.

My coverline has always been 98.3, and I hover around 98.2 before O and 98.6 after O. Of course any deviation from this causes me to flip out and scrutinize like crazy. 
I am thankful, however, that my temps are so consistent. It's the one TTC sign I can usually count on! she thought it was just a clogged duct (i had several when i nursed, not nice AT ALL) but this morning her boob was red and tender. thankfully our ob practice on-call doc called in an rx for antibiotics and she has started taking them.
