Ok, I am officially feeling a little silly today. I caved and took one of my three tests. 
of course. How dumb is that, know I feel bummed, but still don't know for sure. On the other hand, how great would a positive have been?
The precipitator was that my Dad was wanting to know about dates to book his flight at Christmas and he was planning to leave just a few days of the baby being due, if I was pregnant. So, what with some symptoms, lots of high hopes, Dad, and just wanting to, I tested.
DH found it silly that I was upset. I do too, but can't he just see, gosh darn it that it's not always logical. He said these things take time and you can't just put in an order for a baby and expect one and other very sensible things.
Anyway, so I am only DPO 12 and not out of the game yet, but I feel very pessimistic about my chances now, whereas before I loved the idea that I might be pregnant.
I know, I know, I shouldn't take the tests early. I always feel this way afterwards.
Anyway, enough about me.
Ann, sounds like you are having excellent timing this month
Good luck.
Tracy, I couldn't get your photos to work!
Claire, Kudos to you on your patience (not that you have a choice, but you are handling it so well).
I should say my toddler is cheering me up no end. His new trick this morning is to look upside down between his legs and then laugh and laugh. He falls over he laughs so hard. He cracks himelf up!
Thanks for the support everyone and
and fertile thoughts to all the nursing mamas.

: May an eggie be quietly burrowing right now 
It's a really hard thing to think about doing, especially because you've gotton so good at it and our bodies are supposed to be able to tell us what's going on...but the thing that we hate to admit is that BBT charting is meant to be a retroactive indicator...that is we can look at it after a full cycle and see what happened, but we can't always use it to tell us what will happen or even figure out what the heck is going on while it happens. Trust me, I'm a big nfp advocated and bought TCOYF many months before PPAF, and even talked a friend and my sister into using it...but I found that this whole PP land is so much different than the normal ttc or tta experience that it doesn't always fit. Please take this all with a grain of salt, and I don't mean to be pessimistic at all...I'm just trying to come up with an explanation/plan for you... Monstrous hugs for you, dear, and some cyber chocolate as well....How's DH been handling things, BTW? Are you getting enough support? Remember that we're all here for you!
it into her head that no, all my indicators say I ovulated much later. She said she doesn't really know much about lpd but she feels it can only be diagnosed with two negative endometrial biopsies (a day or two before AF, they sample the lining of the uterus to see if it's thick enough...) She said basically come back in 6 more months, feel free to try b6/vit C, anything like that, but that prog. suppositories probably aren't useful. She also didn't think I should test my prog. or prolactin...and upon reflection I agree. It's not like I'd decrease :bf and prog. levels vary throughout the day so it's not a real easy thing to test. She did say that since I'm clearly ovulating that's a good thing, and I agree 
I've read somewhere that the nice way to deal with the 2ww is to consider yourself pregnant until proven otherwise, and while it can lead to a lot of false hopes at least it helps you wait it out in good spirits. And, a whole lotta people end that 2ww with a much longer wait till their healthy baby is born, sooo....
BUT I only have 1 preg test left so I MUST have willpower and wait until I'm late.
All this wonderin' is making me hungry!
