Quick question- to those of you taking mucinex, how long after starting did you notice an increase in cm? I usually have plenty of cm but this month I'm totally dry! I started mucinex today to see if I can get some good ewcm before my usual O on cd15. I usually have ewcm from cd11-15. Totally bizarre!

Marquess- it def seems very possible that you're preg! So excited for you and hope you get a definite answer soon!

Sparkle- Still SO excited for you! Glad you'll get your beta tomorrow and you can settle in to the idea of being preg! How old is your DD?

I too experienced the performance issues with DH from the pressure when we started TTC again. Thankfully, after a couple months, he got over it. I definitely could not act upset with him if it didn't work though, because that just made more pressure for the next time!

Katie- I try to test two times a day but I drink so much water that honestly sometimes it doesn't work too well. I didn't take pics because it was just so close to being positive my phone wouldn't even pick it up I'm sure! Oh well I'm sure I Od because the test was so close as we BD the day before so I am betting that will be our best chance anyway!

Marquess- dont stress yourself out too much lady! Good luck!!

Mama- I am having right side cramping too! Woo hoo for pain? Haha

KH- ahh I hope that line reappears next time you test!

[oxford]

Marquess- what a lovely way to give the news to DH!! I'm looking forward to hearing about how you do it this time :-)

Good luck to you all waiting for the BFP.
Why do we do this to ourselves!!

digi FRER and reg FRER both BFN this morning @ 14dpo. Temp took a dive (from 98.5 to 98). only a matter of time before AF shows. Im going to get all my pisutuve tests, reciepts and whatnot together and send them off to FRER in the mail with a strongly worked letter about their horrible product :*(

the only thing that is good that might come out of this is the fact that i probably did indeed ovulate, which i questioned before.

good luck to everyone

[katiecornflakes]

Oh no, marquess. I'm so sorry. FRER broke my heart last cycle, too, so I can relate. You really got taken for a ride, though. So upsetting. I hope they at least give your
Money back. Many hugs.

KH - hope that line comes back for you!

Amy - I hope the mucinex does the trick for you! I think ill try it next cycle.

jjh - yay for pain!

Oxford - GL!

More light cramping here today. Boobs still not really sore so I'm wondering if I'm out. Got 7 hours of straight sleep last night, which is the best stretch in months I think, and still was really dragging on my run. Maybe a good sign? But my gut isn't sure. I just don't feel quite different enough. But we'll see. Just a few more days till testing for me!

[oxford]

Oh no! Marquess that is terrible news. I'm so sorry. That disappointment is horrible :-(
AF is a terrible guest and never welcome.

You never know its completely over until she arrives though. There have been stories on here of very late positives, so I will keep hope for you.

Try and do something nice in the meantime to keep your spirit nourished

Big hugs xx

katie: Thanks for taking a peek at my chart! I think I'm leaning toward CD14 since that was also my PD and yeah, my CF and CP didn't really match up with CD10. Guess we'll see in some days now won't we . I'm wondering if that first slight temp shift was my body getting ready to O but didn't quite get there and finally took the plunge around CD14. Also, if I go by O on CD14 I won't be wondering if AF is playing games with me since I'll be working with a later O date. Got my for you! When are you testing?

Ugh, sorry about the disappearing line KHughe. I hate the emotional jerk around . Hope you enjoyed the snow and had a cozy evening last night!

Aw man, I'm so sorry marquess .

oxford how much time do you have left in the TWW?

Me, not much going on. Getting ready to head to the library to pick out something new to read . Have a great morning ladies!

[marquess78]

i put everything together in an envelope. when i go out later i will be mailing it. i will also be emailing them again to make them aware that its coming.

i called ClearBlue too since their tests were positive yesterday(except the digi of course). they are not nearly as nice as the FRER people. basically they wont send replacement product or refund without bloodwork results. Crazy right. Ive contacted my Dr office and hopefully they will get me in today. I am crampy so AF is prob on her way soon

thanks for riding the rollercoaster with me. i think i need to invest in some of these wondfo tests for next time. are they good? no high rate of false positives?

[jjh5351]

Marquess, I think that is HORRIBLE of clear blue and I will never use ther products for sure after hearing that. Bloodwork would cost you more than it is worth to have them refund your tests. I'm so sorry about all of this for you!

Happy Monday to everyone else!

[jjh5351]

Oh and yes! Invest in wondfos! They do have a chance for evap from what I understand but I didn't have any evap once from them last cycle. Do you use OPKs? You should purchase some of the wondfo OPKs too!

[Serenyd]

Congrats Sparkle and GL to everyone else! Hope you all get your BFPs very soon! 

[AngelKissedKids]

So, I might have some news to share but I'm trying not getting my hopes up too much yet...

It's much easier to see IRL of course.  When you invert or greyscale the photo it is easier to see the 2nd line so I posted it here to play with their tools (and get some votes of confidence :-)  http://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test-gallery/my-pregnancy-test102001

I went for bloodwork this morning but I know I won't get results until tomorrow afternoon.  Yesterday I had an even more faint line, almost a shadow, but there was no way to capture it on camera.  Even my DH couldn't see it in person, ha ha.  I plan to buy a FRER to POAS later today.  I feel more pregnant than last month (especially my BBS) and yet I feel like I'm holding my breath and just waiting for the spotting to start.  So far, AF is 2 days late (I think I'm 14DPO today) and no signs of her arrival.  Please send lots and lots of sticky vibes my way!!!

[dahlia810]

AKK!!! Yes! I so see it!! Yaay!!

[SparkleMaman]

Marquess Mama. I am SO sorry!! And I agree with Jjh, I LOVE the Wondfos. I've never had an evap and they are as sensitive as or more sensitive than FRERs and way cheaper. Ebay and Amazon have great deals.

AKK I SO see it!! Congrats!! OMG this is awesome news!!

Mamacats Enjoy your book!

Katie That all sound like great symptoms!! The cramping has been my biggest sign. And my boobs aren't so sore now. So, so anxiously awaiting you testing!!

Amy My DD is a big girl, she's nine. I plan to tell her soon, she'll know something is up and I don't want her wondering or worrying We're very in sync. I'm planning to pick up a Big Sister shirt tonight and assuming my labs are as I hope and expect, wrap up her gift for Wednesday evening. She is going to freak out being so excited! She asks for a baby brother or sister daily!

Thanks Serenyd!!

AFM Waiting on my blood work! I plan to call ~3pm if I haven't heard before. Will update you all as soon as I hear!!

Wishing everyone much

[SparkleMaman]

Dahlia How do you put that cool pregnancy calendar in your signature? Love it!

[mamaBlue]

Akk - I see it! Yeah!

[SparkleMaman]

Hi Mamas!! Just got my Hcg results, 96 at 11 DPO!!! It's confirmed

[mamaBlue]

Sparkle! Congratulations! Yeahooooo!

[mamacatsbaby]

I see it AngelKissed! Super, uber sticky baby for you!

Great labs Sparkle! Also, since MDC doesn't do tickers we make our own with smilies and other characters on the keyboard. So say someone wants to make a ticker with whatever their major milestones are for them, they could do something like this:

~~~~~6~~~~~12~~~~~~~~20~~~~~~~~~30~~~~~ ~~~40!

And you just move the smilie up each week .
