~*~The ONEderful THREAD~*~ August 28 - September 4 - Page 3

[Stevi]

KittenBritches...   My birthday is June 30th, and I'm a Cancer. So, you could get June without another Gemini. LOL

AAM...   My pelvic ultrasound is scheduled for October 20th. That is the earliest openning they had available.

[Carlin]

Kitten - when I was chart stalking you earlier   I was actually thinking that FF had your crosshairs wrong. I hope this new interpretation is right and it's just too early for a BFP yet!

I need to get off the computer and out of the house, as I'm way to obssesive about this whole ttc thing right now. I'm going to go take the child that's already here to the playground, and attempt to stop worrying about the ones that don't exist yet for a couple hours!

[GradStudent13]

Thanks, Kitten! I am not going to lie, I was pretty much beside myself yesterday when I found out! We were not sure we were going to be able to afford to get any stroller and now we have a nice one!

Also, Kitten and Janellody, I am really sorry that your bodies/charts are being so confusing. It is so hard to be so careful about everything and still be unsure.

[MeredithA]

Well, I did not get a bfp this morning and my temp dropped so I'm thinking AF will be here soon. I'm so sad. But....onward!

Kitten, Janelle, gemmine, and all the other testers-- keeping my fingers crossed for you ladies!

[KM84]

Soooo, I caved and tested. Got what looks like an evap (faint, no color), but will test again tomorrow with FMU just to be sure.

[GradStudent13]

KM84, a line (even a possible evap) is significantly more exciting then I have been getting!  Also, I think you are totally right, I need to be finding something else to occupy my time. I have been going to yoga class and spending time organizing our apartment, but I need something more distracting. I think I am going to take a trip to my parents house soon, so maybe that will help.

[AndtheStars]

Man, rough week on the thread and it's only Tuesday! 

Basically everyone, Gah!  Maybe we're all synching up with AF like when you live together with girls.  Maybe the entire ONE thread is going to end up with the same cycle.  How easy would that make it?!  It would be pretty quiet for 3 or 4 days though once a month

Janellody, CD24?!!  FF is crazy....

Gemmine,  *conversationally  so when are you testing?

kitten, fingers crossed that you actually are just a tad to early for a second line and in two days you will magically have your BFP.  Your chart is so nice.  I would hate to waste such a nice chart on a BFN.  I'm also happy to see that even though you conceived both your DC in September, they ended up with b-day's not on the same day.  I'm debating about taking November off if we don't hit Sept or Oct because there is a very good chance the next LO would be born on DS's birthday or within a couple days.  I don't want the kids to have to share a birthday. 

Sourire, I know, I know, I know, you're not actually here...but a heartfelt thank you for continued charting so we can all chart stalk you.  If you would have taken a sabbatical from FF too, that would have been painful. 

AFM, This is a continued thought from my comment to kitten but does it seem weird to anyone else that my cycle went back to exactly the same as it was 3 years ago when we were TTC DS?  I O'd with DS on November 16, 2008 which was one day after the full moon, he was born two days after a full moon, and now I O within a day or two of the full moon every month and get AF within a day or two away from the new moon every month (or on the day of the new moon like this month).  I didn't get PPAF for 10 months after DS and it seems like it went right back to the same cycle.  Did this happen to anyone else?

Also, I think that I'm going to re-name the thread The ON(E)ward! THREAD next week, any objections?

ETA:  KM84, we like evap lines..especially ones that turn into BFP's the next day....oooooo!

[Gemmine]

*peeking in* Hey guys! Man, this thread has been busy. I'm sorry about all of the BFNs and confusion everyone is dealing with. LOL AndtheStars "conversationally" I was thinking Friday if my temp doesn't drop (that will be 11DPO). If it does drop (even a little) I won't test at all (unless I'm late of course).

kitten: I'm a May Gemini and I vote for next month! 4 Geminis sounds pretty awesome :-)

[toothfairy2be]

I wish I had time to write back to everyone! I just snuck on at work while I am doing a whitening procedure and just sitting here in the dark, so I can't type too much.

I was chart stalking at lunch and am hoping to see BFPs from SOURIRE (seriously, her chart is like, a model BFP chart and completly different from months past... please please please let it be so!) MeridithA (I've seen BFP charts dip like that and then still hover over the coverline, I hope that is you!), kitten (really, your chart is so pretty), and then I know there is still a few more days, but KM, Janellody, GradStudent, Gemmine--- sorry if I missed anyone, but we need to rock Labor day weekend with some BFPs please!!

I am having weird things happen-- nothing exciting, just phantom did I O already or what the heck?!. I'll update later!

[MeredithA]

Carlin ~ I’m the same way! I had to get out of the house and go to the park with DS yesterday to stop obsessing!

Kitten ~ I haven’t given up on your chart…I think you could still get a bfp

Stevi ~ Oct. 20 seems like so far away! At least you got your appointment scheduled…and perhaps someone will cancel and an opening will pop up earlier?

KM84 ~ What I got yesterday was so faint I kept questioning it and thinking maybe it was an evap. But Gradstudent is right – even evaps are more fun than plain blank white tests haha! And who knows, maybe it will turn into your BFP!

AndTheStars ~ I LOVE The idea of naming it the ON(E)ward thread….so clever!

Gemmine ~ I hope your temp doesn’t drop & I can’t wait to see what turns up on Friday!!

Janellody ~ Welcome back – we missed you when you were away!

BubbleMa ~ Whats up? I can’t remember exactly where you are in your cycle…when are you testing? 

AFM ~ I tested again. Here are the results: http://www.canyouseealine.com/view_home_pregnancy_test.php?testID=14161 I am guessing perhaps the IC was just a dud, because this FRER seems to have a definite line...darker than yesterday...can you see it?? I almost want to say BFP, but I'm still thinking I could just be nuts. 

[AndtheStars]

Meredith, THAT'S A BFP!!!!! WOOT!!!!!!  You are totally not nuts!  You are pregnant! 

[janellody]

How do you override FF's O day and pick your own?  I thin kI want to switch it back to CD17.. or should I do CD16?

[MeredithA]

AndTheStars~ eeek! So excited! However digi says not pregnant so let's wait to move me to graduates till that shows up
:-) you know, I was threadkeeper before you and the 2 threadkeepers before me got bfps after being threadkeeper...so... In keeping w ONEthread tradition, you're next!

[janellody]

Meredith!!!  That's BFP to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!  Digi better confirm tomorrow!!

[KM84]

Meredith - that looks like a BFP from where I'm sitting! Definitely pink! woooo!

[Rainey Daye]

AndtheStars: Umm, I mentioned this on last week's thread...but I noticed it hadn't been changed yet. I need to be moved from the July BFP Graduates list to the Waiting to be Ready thread since I lost the baby and am not quite ready to start TTC again (though if something happens accidentally then we'd be thrilled).

[BubbleMa]

Meredith!  I see a line this time!     Congrats!!   I'm thinking that digital just isn't sensitive enough.  AF, is supposed to come tomorrow.  I have two cheapie strip tests, so I *might* use one in the morning.  I don't know.  I'm so "blah" about this cycle.  I don't know why.  Our timing and everything was great, but I just don't feel hopeful like I normally do. :(

I really hope I'm just too early!  Time will teeelllll! LOL  As for my DC's conceived in September, with DS my LMP was 9/12/02 and my EDD was 6/19/03; with DD my LMP was 9/11/07 and my EDD was 6/18/08 (or 6/17 if you took leap year into account, which apparently no one does LOL).  If AF starts any time soon and we caught the egg next month, my EDD would most likely be right around DD's birthday.

I haven't checked to see how my cycles line up with the moon, though.  It would be interesting to check.

Only if this cycle is crazy long or the next one is crazy short and gives me two shots at June!  LOL.

FF originally gave me CH's on CD 16, but my thermometer was acting all wonky and everything else seemed to point to earlier (except the watery CM) and I just *wanted* to have O'd already.  LOL.  Fingers crossed that I still have a chance (and same to you)!!

That is absolutely, positively a line!  Congratulations, mama!!    Of course, I saw the line the other day, too.  Super Vision!  LOL.  

[RavenStar]

KM84:  AF was due this past Saturday, August 27th.  So quite a few days late.

Meredith: Congrats!  I see that pink line!

So I had a bit of a scare today.  Earlier today I kept thinking AF was coming b/c I was having general cramping. (Still no AF BTW)

The pain got stronger and more localized.  I ended up at the ER and it turns out I have a hernia.  So it's possible that my body is waiting to menstruate because of this stress.  Anyhow, I need outpatient surgery to correct that.  Looks like TTC will go on hold for awhile.

Oh no!  I'm so sorry for the bad news, Raven!  I hope you recover quickly -- did they happen to draw your blood at the ER to ensure you aren't pregnant?
