Congrats Icy! 

AF is here this morning, with a vengeance. I can't remember this last time the cramps have been this bad. I'm wondering if maybe something was trying to implant and didn't stick. What a weird month for me. 

Oh well, I guess I'm out too ladies. Warmest wishes to all of you. Good Luck!

Alison: I did with this pregnancy! I spotted brown-ish with my normal CM for 3 days when I would've gotten my period. If you don't normally have that, that might be a good sign! I did have spotting for around 5 days before my periods for a few months so I started supplementing with B6 and B12 and corrected that. Good luck though. Excited for you! 

Updated: Oh, dang. Just read your post. Maybe try the B6 and B12? Definitely helped me. You can find lots of info on that on here!

Fifth straight day of exactly the same temp: 11 DPO.  I looked at my chart overlay and 12 DPO is usually when my temp falls off the cliff.  I will resist POAS until at least tomorrow.  Still having little stabbing feelings down below and tender breasts so who knows?

[icy02]

Good Luch Lilacvioletiris! Your symptoms sound promising.  Immcrossing my fingers for you!

[lilacvioletiris]

I don't know, cramps are feeling more AF like.  I guess I will wait and see what my temp is tomorrow.

Okay, Back for my second and hopefully last 2WW! Based on CM I'm pretty sure I'm 4DPO and I've decided that this month I am not testing at all until at least 10DPO, which would be next Monday. I'm going to stop at the Family Dollar today and pick up some cheap tests. I have one CB digital left from last month but I'm not buying any more expensive tests so I'll save that one as the official confirmation test. Anyway, good luck this month everybody

ciga- Good luck!

AFM- I have not been so strong in holding off to test.  I tested yesterday at 5 DPO and today at 6 DPO (both BFN's of course).  So far no symptoms except some cramping and nausea but both of those can be because of this cold that I have.

Hello Ladies...I just got back today from my trip...Had no access to internet while i was away..

CONGRATS ICY!!! :)

Lilac hope this is the month for u too...

[lilacvioletiris]

Congrats Sanity!

Nope, this isn't the month for me.  My temp dropped below the coverline today so I figure AF will be here tonight or tomorrow.  Onto making an American Thanksgiving baby.

[icy02]

Hurray Sanity!!! I'll see you in the October DDC! So happy for you!!

[sanity82]

Congrats sanity and icy- i hope your trendsetters

Lilacvi- yeah...we are heading into that'i'd like to be holding my baby during the holidays' stretch.

Ciga- i just brought home 20 or so tests to add to the 6 Frer i have tucked away...

I am 0 dpo ....i think today was O. And yes, i already feel fully plunged in the 2ww. It's gonna be a long one.

[lilacvioletiris]

AF bleeding is definitely here this morning.  Good news, my luteal phase seems to be consistently longer since I started taking thyroid meds so hopefully this is moving in the right direction.  Positive attitude must prevail!

No way!  Unfortunately I don't have a dollar tree near me and though the Family Dollar tests are cheaper than the name brands, at $4 a pop I just can't rationalize buying a whole bunch of them.  I was so annoyed that Family Dollar doesn't have the simple strip tests. I am totally jealous of you.  Had I thought ahead I would have ordered cheapies off the internet.  Well, if this month doesn't do it for us, I might order a bunch for next month.  At 6 dpo, I'm actually shocked by the fact that I haven't even felt tempted to test super early. Particularly with tests in the house.  Maybe it was the disappointment of those early BFNs last month.  Having a babe in my arms for the holidays would be lovely but I mostly just don't want to have to deal with driving the 45 minutes to my midwife once a week in snow storms next winter.

[sanity82]

thanks sherry...hope the TWW goes by real quick for u and u get a BFP!! :)

Sorry Lilac.....but things def seem to be movin in the right direction....hang in there.

Gd luck to u too Ciga...

Hi
Ciga i work in an ob/gyn office so i get the 20u sensativity pretty cheap. I found frer's at a walmart with 3 in a box for $12. Last month was the first time i really went poas crazy. This month i am as hopeful as i've been since the first few months of trying. It's bad but I'm actually looking at the calander to plot when I'll test with what. I hzve to be out of town 9-11dpo and i wish i was strong enough to wait til i got home to test, but i know i won't. How long will you wait. I'll gladly drive through the snow!!! If it would just happen

Sorry lilac.when did you start the thyroid meds? I am in my second month of metformin(yuck) and i hope it's making a difference.

Thanks sanity.

1dpo and miles to go.

Hi ladies!

Well, I just discovered this thread and it's perfect. I am currently in the 2ww and doing everything I can to keep my mind preoccupied. I'm expecting AF on Saturday (in 2 days) and have been having mild cramping, nausea, restless sleep, and vivid dreams since Monday. My temp shifted on Sunday (day 21 of my cycle) though it always seems to shift late in my cycle like that. So, I'm not completely sure when I ovulate because my CM starts to dry up a few days before that.

I took a pregnancy test before bed last night (3 days before my expected AF) and got a BFN. I'm telling myself it was just too early and I'll test again if AF doesn't come as scheduled.

The nausea has subsided a bit today but there have been some mild waves. Anyways, I'm crossing my fingers. It's very unlike me to get cramps (even before AF) so... I guess I'll see.

Best of luck to everyone on the thread!

[Shawnamarie]

I need a little advice if anyone is willing.

I am expecting AF tomorrow and have had a whole host of potential pregnancy things going on the past week or so (just posted last night with details). Today my cramping is a bit more mild, and I'm still a little queasy. I am extremely fatigued, kind of dizzy, and I feel like crying. My temp all morning has been fluctuating between 98.6 and 99.0 and I had a hot flash a bit ago. Also woke up with diarrhea this morning after another night of really restless sleep and vivid dreams. 

Could any of this still be about potentially being pregnant or am I just sick? I don't feel sniffly or anything.

Thanks for any help.

[sherryvhkb]

Hey shawnamarie
i hope that af is holding off. It is hard to tell whats what. I guess by tomorrow you should know better

[lilacvioletiris]

Sherry, I started the thyroid meds 2 months ago, so I think things are definitely going in the correct direction, especially keeping my temps more stable and not jumping then plummeting to give me a toothy looking saw edge chart.  Hopefully this month will be a good one!
