Sparkle, so exciting!! If you had IB yesterday you could probably get a BFP tomorrow. Test, test, test! Or don't if you don't want to. ;) Heehee.

[ladyelms]

i plan to test this saturday, which will put me at 10dpo. while this is our first cycle trying, i'm feeling pretty good about seeing 2 pink lines. :) good luck all!

I'm feeling some nausea today for the first time after eating breakfast (I've had a few moments here and there but shrugged them off as being in my head). Getting excited but trying not to be too excited, don't want the let down, ahhhh the emotions!

AF is due Monday, so I plan to test Monday morning. Looks like lots of us are close with our cycles and plans for testing! How exciting, can't wait to see all of the  BFPs over the next few days!! Positive vibes to everyone:)

Katie, sorry for your BFN. Better luck next month! That's a good idea to track normal pre-AF symptoms. I'm guilty of not paying attention like I should. I never even noticed that my boobs got sore before AF. I probably just blamed it on my nursing toddler. The only time I had sore boobs that I noticed when I was pregnant was with DS2. And they really hurt.

JJH5351, I never knew that was an app for that! Should have known, but how neat. Makes me wish I had a fancy smart phone, too!

Dahlia, have you read Taking Charge of your Fertility by Toni Weschler? It's helped me a lot, and it has a lot of stuff in there about charting, with pictures of charts.   

Sparkle, that does sound promising. Lots of babydust to you! 

Good luck to everyone testing over the weekend. I hope I come back from work Monday to find a bunch of BFPs! 

I'm thinking about testing Friday before I leave for my out of town job, my AF is due early next week. Kind of worried that it's too early. I'll be 10-12 dpo then. Trying not to get my hopes up. 

I had a pap test and pelvic exam today. Med student mashed on my belly after I tried to tell her not too, they know I'm TTC! Feeling kinda dull and crampy in my pelvic area now, hope everything is ok in there!

So as much as I wanted to wait I finally just poas. I have 2 ept digital tests. "Not pregnant" at 13dpo.

[dahlia810]

Aw, I'm sorry Becky, don't give up yet. My fingers are super crossed for you.

Serenyd no, I haven't looked into that book yet, but considering how many times I've heard it mentioned on here, I should look into it. I would like to chart, but it's so intimidating.. it looks confusing    I wonder if that book has a kindle version? I downloaded the FF app but haven't started using it yet since I'm still on my period.

susie, ladyelms, sparkle... anyone I missed.. Good luck on testing!!!

AFM I went back to work today, and for the most part I've been doing ok today. The hardest part is waking up and having to realize all over again that I'm not pregnant anymore. But, I'm healing. I can talk about it a little bit now, without totally losing it. I'm a nanny for a few families, and one of the moms asked me today if I'm ok and asked if there is anything they can do (not knowing what happened) and I just had word vomit, and told her everything.. She was really sweet, and reacted well and didn't make it worse. I'm just embarrassed.

[katiecornflakes]

Hugs, Becky. Hope it's just a shy bean!

Dahlia, charting seems complicated but really once you get into it it's not. I promise! Plus there are lots of ladies on here who like to analyze charts, myself included!

AF is kicking my butt, just to add insult to injury. Awesome. Trying to figure out what to do differently this cycle, althought I really felt like we gave it the perfect shot last cycle. Sucks.

Yes! If you ever get a smart phone it's just called period tracker I think sorry about your doc visit

I did the same today with my EPT but did not use FMU so I am trying to remain positive. There is still time!!

I'm sorry about talking with your nanny mom I did the same to one of my coworkers last month. Still thinking about you

[jjh5351]

Oh dahlia I've also been meaning to tell you- many of my husbands coworkers wives and a few other friends have told me that they all m/cd on their first pregnancies so don't get discouraged! It is such a foreign thing for a woman and your body just may not be used to it the first time! I have a good feeling for you for next month!!

[jjh5351]

Sorry about all the posts, but I didn't mean that to say that you shouldn't feel bad or anything because grief is necessary and understandable! I just hope it makes you feel like you're not alone and keep on trying

[Becky8824]

jj I didn't use fmu either so maybe....I'm still nauseous 

[Becky8824]

Does anyone know the link to compare hpt? Someone posted it earlier I just can't find it. I wonder if my digital ept isn't as accurate as a frer? 

[Mary76]

Mary, did you take a pregnancy test? If not, I'd advise you to get one ASAP. The dollar stores sell cheap $1 tests if cost is a factor. If it's negative, see your health care practitioner (same thing if it's positive  ).  HTHs.
