Good luck tomorrow Sparklemaman! 

Lady Elms, I'm a 2 time UC mama also. Nice to meet you. 

I don't feel pregnant. As in, I don't feel any different than I did last month. In fact, I felt more pregnant last month. We shall see. Only 5-7 dpo right now, waaay to early to test. Going to try to hold out until Friday. FX. 

Loving all the BFPs! 

[SparkleMaman]

So I used a FRER and a Wondfo this morning, nada, BFN x2. I must just have line eye! I was worried about that. I feel rather silly for sounding the alarm now yesterday. About the negatives,  I feel strangely okay, disappointed but not freaked out. I think it is just too early, 10 DPO. Will test tomorrow, I'm hoping for New Year's baby dust. I just have such a good feeling. Fx!! Hope everyone has some fun plans for tonight. MamaMash, you were 11 DPO when you got your first positive, right? I am so excited to hear results today!!

[dahlia810]

Sparklemaman don't worry, I didn't get my first squinter of a line until 11dpo :) You're definitely still in the game!

I'm excited to hear results from testers today too! Good luck everyone! I'm rooting for more bfps!

[dahlia810]

Oh and MamaMash let us know when you hear from the doctor about your beta results! How are you and your daughter feeling?

[Starfish11]

I remain positive for you, Sparkle. And JoyFam please keep sharing your experience so we can keep cheering you on!

AFM, I am out. AF is totally here, for an extended stay actually which is really annoying. But at least I can enjoy champagne tonight..,and tomorrow

I am really at peace with this. In fact, I am weaning off of the B6 and am going to stop actively trying. For a few months I'd been feeling our family was not complete but I spent some time this month really evaluating that perspective. And the thing is, I look at ,y kids, husband, animals, friends, etc. and realize that my family is perfect. Another baby will be a bonus if it happens but I feel no sorrow or regret at the thought of being done with baby making.

Good luck and baby dust to all of you mamas. I am going to keep following your stories as I think you all are super.

[Becky8824]

Starfish11 I am happy that you have found that peace. I try to find that with my 3 step kids but I just want to have a baby so bad. Maybe one day I will find that peace

Sparklamaman you will get it tomorrow

Mamamash I am anxiously waiting for your results

Karicornflakes how are you? I just woke up not out of bed but I don't feel the achy legs anymore. I'm symptom free. I got a little discouraged last night. I went back 4 years and read my posts when I tried with my ex husband. With 4 bfn and all the same symptoms as this round. Trying to stay positive but worried that this just won't happen for me

I don't even want to test I want to keep pretending I'm pregnant

[dahlia810]

Hang in there Becky, you are how many dpo? My achey legs came and went, so don't focus too much on that. This will happen for you :)

Sparklemaman how are you doing today? Are you planning to test again anytime soon?

Starfish I'm glad you are feeling so calm and content. I'm sure that you will have exactly the family you are meant to, regardless of whether you decide to try again for another baby :)

[dahlia810]

Well, just got off the phone with my doctors office. Hcg level was 5 at the time of the test. I may be sticking around the ttc forums after all. I'm extremely sad and upset and have no idea what to do or think. I feel like this happiness has just been ripped away from me

[katiecornflakes]

Starfish, hugs on AF. So glad you found your peaceful place in all of this. Not easy to do!

Sparkle, ugh on the BFN! But you're right, it's still early. More testing to come!

Becky, I feel exactly the same as you this morning. My boobs are a little sore but not bad at all. Still tired. Didn't have to get up to pee last night. Basically I don't feel much. I think I'm probably out. But then I remember the EWCM I had yesterday, which could have been implantation so I could still be in. Ugh. Who knows! I already started talking to DH about next cycle and he was like, WTH we could be pg! But I'm prepping myself since I just don't think this is it. I'll hold off testing until tomorrow. Maybe even Wednesday. I hear you on not wanting to burst the possibility by testing. At this point I'm hoping for a 13 or 14 day LP, that would be fantastic. 

[Blonhrt88]

Thanks dahlia! Tommorow is the day!

Congrats pearl doodle!

Becky, hang in there! I was so wrapped up in testing that 14 dpo came in went, still no AF, or bfp! I'm going to pick up a frer too, I don't want to mess around with cheapest since I've heard they are not as sensitive

[SparkleMaman]

Thanks Starfish. I am glad you are in such a good place. Enjoy your New Year's festivities!! Mine will include only organic sparkling cider

Becky and Dahlia Thank you again for your encouragement!! Katiecornflakes, Becky and I are all 10 DPO today. I am starting to question everything now though - can never be absolutely sure when O occurs, even with temping, CM and/or OPKs. I plan to test tomorrow morning and hope for New Year's baby dust. Sending lots of baby dust to you all!! 

Dahlia and MamaMash Are you going to call for results or wait for them to call you? Countrybound When is your U/S? That is a high HCG for 15 DPO. Could your dates be off?

[SparkleMaman]

We cross posted - Oh Dahlia, I am beyond words to express how sorry I am! What did they say? Do they want you to come back for more blood work today? You should at least have the opportunity to speak with your health care provider, not just whoever shares lab results. Lots of hugs and Fx that you were just earlier than you thought, dates-wise. The doubling is more important that the exact number. I suspect they'll want more labs. You can request a stat lab result, so you'll get some answers today.

[jjh5351]

Dahlia ill be thinking about you today. Will you be getting another blood test? I'm so sorry you're going through this

[jjh5351]

Starfish I am also glad that you're a good place right now! That's a difficult decision To make! Good luck on a potential surprise little one if it happens

I am so achy and sleepy... I hope I am not getting the flu... I know you all said achy legs happened to you guys, all over achiness I haven't seen mentioned... Any thought? I am about 9 DPO maybe 10, it's really hard to tell with me!

[Becky8824]

I just read all these posts in the Starbucks parking lot and then cried the rest of the way to work. So grateful for the support and hoping everyone gets a bfp

[katiecornflakes]

Dahlia, ugh! But don't lost hope. As someone else said, it's the doubling that matters. Did they say they would redraw?

Sounds like we all need hugs today!!!

[Blonhrt88]

Oh, sparkle mama I forgot you were testing tommorow! I'm excited I have a buddy

[Starfish11]

Thanks, mamas. And I would be overjoyed if a surprise happens

Dahlia, so disappointing I am so sorry. Hang in there; you, too, Becky. I am rooting for you two.

And Blonhort! Good luck tomorrow! The anticipation.

And Jjh and KC, your symptoms sound so promising. Crossing all of my fingers.

Mama mash, have you ever tried sumbucus for your little one? It's an herb that drastically reduces the amount of time someone is sick. Adults can take it, too, but not if you are preggers.

[MamaMash]

I missed so much. Happy New Year's Eve all! So sorry for the BFN's sparkle but you aren't out yet! I was actually 10dpo when I got my first squinter but everyone is different!

Starfish I am so glad you have found peace in your life. I have never tried sumbucus. We seem to be a bit better today. I'm not hacking up a lung and her cough at least isn't making her cry. Thanks for the advice! Since winter is just barely starting I'm sure she'll get more illnesses and I will try it!

Hang in there Becky and Katie! This will happen for you both. I'm hoping to hear back from the nurse today with my results and also hear from my doctor and get my beta and progesterone done today as well.

Oh Dahlia 😢 are you going back for another blood test? You could just be very early. All the sites I've read say a level of 5 can be positive. It may have doubled over the weekend. That being said I also don't want to give you false hope to just have it ripped away again. I am so sad 😔

[dahlia810]

I've been crying all morning. Went to the doctor, will have a second test in a week.
