Sorry liv, I hope temping works wonders for you. I know a lot of women swear by it.

Katie, YEAY!your over the hump and into the wait! I think my o date is coming up tommorow or the next day. So I need to get serious about bd,ing.

Sparkle, that's very interesting. So are you thinking it could possibly be twins?! Hehehe

Lidamama, how many days past o are you?

Dahlia, I'm the same. I'm not tempting either for the same reason.

So I was going to come on here to thank everyone and update you all to let you know that AF arrived yesterday.  Shortly after posting my rant I experienced typical AF cramping; wave like cramps along with bright red blood.  I took an Advil to deal with the pain because I was sure that AF was here.  Then there wasn't much bleeding yesterday evening.  I woke up to more bright red blood this morning so I didn't even POAS and I even enjoyed a full mug of coffee.  Today I had the most bleeding by far but still less than my normal heaviest day of AF but not much cramping at all.  I decided to POAS tonight without holding my urine (although it was decently concentrated), just to be able to move on and try to get excited about starting my next cycle of TTC, and the $store test had the faintest line before the 10 minute mark, and I was about 90% sure there was a touch of pink to it instead of the grey evap lines I've been seeing.  I pondered over it for an hour and had my colour-blind DH look at it and since he thought he maybe saw some pink, I decided to POAS on a FRER.  Low and behold on DD2's 22 mos bday and 4 days after AF was due to appear...

I have no idea why I have an almost normal AF when I am indeed pregnant but this is the 3rd time now.  Last time I bled for 5 days.  Today is day #3 of bleeding.  I plan to see my doctor tomorrow to get some bloodwork done to confirm my numbers and then repeat again in 3 days to ensure they are doubling; I'll also request an early ultrasound to make sure everything is indeed okay in spite of the bleeding.  If this little baby continues to grow, his or her EDD will be Sept 26th, only 4 days after my oldest turns 5 y/o!  I'm super excited and I just hope that everything turns out okay (chourd - any feelings about my baby's energy?).  I feel bloated and the only other symptom I've been having is excessive salivation which I had no idea is a pregnancy symptom but it turns out it is :-)  Thanks for your support everyone and I hope to see a whole bunch more BFPs this month!

[DanielleNZ]

Woohoo! That is awesome Angelkissedkids! Can't wait to hear how your dr's appt goes! Wonderful news!

[chuord]

Congrats Angel! Man what a roller coaster of emotion though! At least this time you knew it could happen... Re energy, I can tune into something so... It's very possible it's an embaby! (I wouldn't bet on me as a test tho lol)
Congrats and let us know after beta!

Afm - eating a heap of gorgeous cherries, mum had then mailed express about 2,500 km lol.. They are about 1.5 " diameter and soo yummy...

[Lidamama84]

blonhrt, I'm not exactly sure how many DPO I am, since I never got a pos OPKS. I just went from no second line to two days of faint lines, but I skipped a day or two in between so technically I may not even have o'd...in other words everything's clear as mud! I just know when AF is due, and I she doesn't show, then I'll test.

[wildgreen]

Congratulation s [/B]akk[/B] that's so exciting!
Afm a little cramping but hopeful have a great day everyone

[SparkleMaman]

CONGRATS AKK!!!!!!!!


Blonhrt Lol Not so much suspecting twins but hoping that if I released more than one egg, my chances are increased for a pregnancy all together. But as I said, always thought I would have twins and my odds, being over 35, are increased. We shall see! I'll be overwhelmed with happiness with one baby

[Chighika]

Hi to all I am new here. Decided to join after reading some exciting threads. I am currently 45 will be 46 tomorrow though LOL and yes I am trying to conceive naturally and go full term. I am blessed to have four children naturally in my more socially acceptable childbearing years, married a second time and would love to share the joy of one more with my hubby who was widowed but blessed with children also from his beloved first wife. Sadly I have been pregnant naturally twice since being age 45 but miscarried, 1st BO in April, 2nd 6+3 in Sept 2012. I think I may be pregnant again but am so stressed waiting to test (due latest on thursday) so two more days earliest before hpt would give any real indication, but also petrified that if I have been blessed again with a third pregnancy I will lose this one as well. Just don't know how to cope with my emotional and psychological state at the moment and have to work full time in a job that drains my mental energy as it is. Well done all those that have got your positives you must be elated.

[dahlia810]

welcome, chighika! this is a great place to find support and understanding, I'm sure you'll like it here! are you planning to wait until Thursday to test? I hope you get your bfp

[Blonhrt88]

Congrats angel!! Send some dust my way!

[amycvincent]

Hooray AKK!

Welcome Chighika!

[dahlia810]

how's everyone doing today? I'm 6 dpo and feeling really good, staying very hopeful!

[SparkleMaman]

So I was on my phone before and couldn't respond as I'd like.

Congratulations AngelKissedKids!!!

Chighika!

Dahlia I'm so glad you are feeling well and so hopeful. I'm 4 DPO and also feeling very excited. I'm really feeling like this is my month!! There's some magical and wishful thinking going on but I also just have a sense, you know? Only 8 more days to go until the end of your TWW, right? SO exciting!!

Katie What did you decide about starting meds? Did you get CH this morning? My temp just keeps rising! I am almost .7degrees F above my coverline. Not sure if that is significant or not, though I imagine not, at least not yet. I am trying to temper my enthusiasm with calm, deep breaths.

and wishing everyone a great day!!

[katiecornflakes]

Welcome, chighika! Hope your stay is short!

I hope AF stays away for you wildgreen!

Glad you are both staying positive, sparkle and dahlia! I am, too. Actually pretty chill atm. I'm having a bit of coffee here and there and a bit of wine, trying not to let life stop like it can when TtCing. I think that helps me stay sane. I did get my CH today! FF says I'm 3 DPO. I still wonder if I'm 4, but I'll go with 3 so I don't make myself too crazy. I did start the progesterone yesterday so I officially am not allowed to symptom spot since anything could be due to the meds!

[lovelydee91]

I'm new to this! But my cycle is usually 26 days. Well I'm on cd30 AF was supposed to be here 3 days ago. 16dpo and 3 BFN's... Had mild cramping for about a week & a half but went away yesterday. Boobs became sore 2 days ago!! I feel like I'm crazy. Won't test again until Friday. My sister & bestfriend thinks I should just go get a blood test done. I'll try and hold out a little longer, but if I'm not preggers I hope AF shows her face so I can start a new cycle & try again next month!! Any comments are appreciated!

[dahlia810]

Good luck Lovelydee! Waiting and not knowing is so so frustrating. I hope you get your bfp!

Anyone out there in the tww *not symptom spotting*? lol

[katiecornflakes]

GL, Lovelydee! Hoping you'll see that BFP on Friday!!

Dahlia, I'm still too early to let myself symptom spot! Actually managing not to...so far! Are you feeling anything yet?

[dahlia810]

Ohh tomorrow is 7dpo for me :) I have dull cramping that comes and goes, my nips were extremely painfully sensitive sunday and monday (still a little sore, but not bad now), and I've been having lots and lots of creamy cm. So, nothing definitive haha. I'm still feeling pretty calm about it all, and I'm not really banking on my "symptoms" meaning anything. Just hopeful :) I'm glad you're still feeling zen! Hold onto that peacefulness!

I'd like to join you all here.  I'm 7DPO on a NTNP cycle.  My A/F was late, but I didn't take too much notice since my cycle's have been very unpredictable lately.  Dh and I dtd 1 day before I got EWCM, 2 days before O.  I'm not sure any sperm could have survived to catch the egg, but I guess it's not impossible.  If I get a BFN this cycle, I'm planning on avoiding pg for at least 6 months to focus on losing weight.
