Starting this week off with some

and

[MountainMamaGC]

Thanks for the new thread. I hope I dont need it much longer.

My temp went back up this morning, but I got another BFN on an IC. So I have no idea if I am pregnant or not, but I know that I was pregnant at one point this cycle so I will take that as consolation and keep trying with the soy.

[LivingSky]

I think I'll move to Waiting to O. If this turns out to not be AF, I can always move back, but for now I'm considering it CD1 and moving on to cycle #7

[CDsMom1031]

Motray... If you teach me how, I will take over the thread.

This has to be AF. It never got heavy but I'm now on day 3 of redness. Who knows!!! Being a woman sucks sometimes.

Lydia, try another test. Don't give up yet!

November better be nice to us. Sheesh.

[Kyamo]

Please move me to Waiting to O.

[Stevi]

Hey all, quit rushing to November, some of us are still in October!

I'm hoping the BFPs start to overrun us tomorrow and continue into next year!!!

Everybody think Reproductive Thoughts!

[MommyMatsumoto]

Please move me to waiting for AF. I'm not sure what's going on this cycle, but I think it's annovulatory and I'm ready to move on. TTC really sucks sometimes (but I know I'm preaching to the choir).

[Stephaniqua]

Hey all! I am ttc #2 and on my second cycle! I am 2ww, and am only 3 dpo but really really wish I was farther!!! I want to know so bad, but usually coming on here and knowing I'm not alone makes me feel a million times better. I hope all you ladies luck this time around!!!!

[sarah2881]

I did read the end of the last thread, but it has been crazy around here and i don't really have any personals. I am just still hoping that October comes through with some BFPs!!! Come on Stevi, ValH... Everyone else!!!! !

Lydiah - How are you doing? Have you gotten a different test yet?

Stephaniqua - Welcome! I hope the tww passes quickly for you!

AFM - Another BFN today at 11dpo. It was late morning, not FMU, but there was no hint of a line at all. I want to be hopeful, but I also hate the let down. AF should be here tomorrow. I did have pink CM yesterday just once and barely noticeable, that is pretty much unheard of for me... Trying not to read into it.

[~savah~]

Thanks for doing the thread again this week Motray .
Kyamo

to everyone still in the 2ww

AFF I'm pretty sure I'm out. I had a huge temp drop this morning and also a bfn. I did take the test in the middle of the morning, but nonetheless the temp drop is there.

Also, I think I'm done with the crazy testing. It is such a let down when only one line appears. From now on I'm going to try to wait until my period is late before I test. Of course since I have no willpower that probably won't happen until on use every test I have.

[CDsMom1031]

I'm officially done with "AF". I'm going to test on Friday just to be sure that what I just experienced wasn't implantation bleeding.
It started four days early, lasted for three days, and the tampon was only ever half filled up, AT THE MOST, even after keeping it in for five hours or so. :-/
*Crosses fingers* I know I'm holding onto nothing at this point, so something's gotta give me some hope, dangit! LOL
I hope everyone has a good Monday.

[motray36]

Happy Monday everyone!

Stephaniqua - welcome!

TTCChloeOrConner - thanks for offering! The new threadkeeper has to start the new thread (it she is able to edit it), so I am all set for this week. I don't love doing it during AF and the following week because I try to use that time to not think about TTC as much as possible! So, I will be looking for someone to volunteer for next week as well - if you're interested in learning, there is an overview here:

ETA: karmab - thank you for your help!!

[Gator-mom]

Thanks for running the thread again this week, Motray

Welcome Stephaniqua! We are cycle buddies!

AFM:
Ok well I finally got my cross-hairs, even though the difference this cycle seems to be not as big of a difference in temps as it was the last two. Anyway, that makes me 3dpo so ....
Please move me to 2WW

[Stephaniqua]

Gator-mom- At least we're on the same track. I see you need a summer baby to work with your school schedule, and I do too! If I don't get a BFP this time then we are waiting a year. So I've got really, really high hopes this works out. I was so sure I was last month and it was a really big let down when I wasn't. This time I'm trying not to think about it at all...

Thanks for welcoming me in! I hope I'm not here too long and there are a lot of BFP this month!

[Sourire]

Thanks for being threadkeeper again this week motray!

My temps have been a mess for the past few days due to being in a different time zone & staying up late & drinking at my brother's wedding celebrations!

The EPO I started taking at the beginning of this cycle doesn't seem to be helping, I still have practically no CM even though I am sure I am in my fertile phase based on my CBEFM and the timing of my O in the last few cycles. Does anyone know if EPO is one of those supplements that takes a few cycles to start working properly? Now that I am back home I really have to start checking my CP because CM tells me nothing! At least I have Pre-seed :P

I asked my brother if they were going to have kids soon and he said they are starting to TTC right away! That means both my SILs are TTC at the same time as me. On the one hand its fun to have company, but on the other hand if either of them gets pregnant before me I will be crazy jealous! My one SIL already has a baby and my new SIL is way younger than me (she's 22) so I feel like I am owed a baby first! I know I am being ridiculous but I can't help it...

[~savah~]

And she's here . Can I be moved to waiting to o, thank you. The worst part is dp gets home tonight after being gone for a week. Of course af couldn't hold out for one more day .

[sleepingbeauty]

Thanks for the new thread!

BRING ON THE BFPS!!!! Good luck ladies!!

[LivingSky]

Sourire: I took EPO for the first time last cycle and it definitely made a difference to my CM right away. Within the first 48 hours, I'd say! I don't know if that's normal for everyone though. Is it possible you're dehydrated? I would think that EPO wouldn't help much if you don't have enough fluids in you to start with.

AFM: I woke up with a killer migraine today, so I think I'm going to go hide in the dark for the rest of the day!

[MountainMamaGC]

My temp dropped again. I am going to run out and buy a FRER. If its a BFN I will just relax and wait for AF, and if its a BFP I will pray that AF doesnt come. The drugstore opens in 10 min. If AF is gonna come I hope she does before I test.
