Hello! I thought I belonged in the August DDC, but here in the beginning of May is where I go according to the little pg wheel. Math never was my strong suit!
I got my :+ Wednesday, 10DPO.
Keeping my fingers crossed to have lots of company here!

Maybe if I post here then af will show up and I'll just know! lol I'm trying to convince dh to go to the dollar store for some pg tests. ;) Af usually shows up after you take one of those, right? I'm hoping to be lucky one of these times!
I'm 14 dpo

Me too! Me too! Me too!:jumpers: I hope that I get to join you, but right now I am only 13DPO. Tomorrow :af is due. I am so so scared that she is actually coming. I do feeeeeeeel PG though. You know how it is, I am afraid that I might of convinced myself but not really be. I am not ready to take a HPT yet, because in the past they have come up false negative.
Sorry to go on and on. So glad to have others that know what I am going through.:thumb

good luck to everyone waiting!
I am waiting to test again too--tested this morning and I knew I was wasting a test, I am only 8dpo.... but I couldn't stand it anymore.
The symptom I have been having is cramping for the last week, and totally exhausted. I am afraid to get my hopes up though.

etoile- i'm right there with ya! i'm 10 dpo and tested this afternoon.... negative. it's so disappointing even though i know it's still probably just too early to show. cramping here as well, but mainly last week, and i've noticed my stomach's been really sensitive to things i normally eat. i really hope it's not all in my mind! sending lots of good baby vibes to everybody!! :)

Cramping is for sure a good sign girls! I had mega cramps and it worked out for me! So come on everybody, get betas or something... lets get this May DDC hopping!

Yay! We finally tested at 16dpo and positive. Phew! I'm not a total nutcase!! :wink The test turned positive in about 10 seconds, before the "test window" was even wet. neat.

That puts my due date at May 5th (mothers day is the 6th!). My brother was born on Mother's Day, and he was my mother's first. I think that if that happens to me that it'll be pretty funny. But, since it's my first aren't they usually a bit late? Hubbies birthday is May 19th... and my bro is May 9th. Ugh, May is going to be busy busy!!:dizzy:

I'll add myself to the list. 8DPO here. Trying to decide when to test ... I was going to attempt to wait until 14-16DPO (last LPs have been 12 days), but the waiting is too hard! I have to prepare for disappointing BFN if I test too early, so just weighing the decision ... :dizzy:
mom0810
08-28-2006, 05:11 PM
8 dpo here, too! Okay, I gave in and took a test. It had a verrrrrry faint line... I think. It's way too early, but I couldn't resist. My body says I am, but I could be just wishfully thinking. :wink
I am interviewing a doctor tomorrow that does VBAC's. I needed to find a new doc, anyway, so I figure now is a good time!
My son is 9 months old and still nursing. Anyone out there in the same boat? I want to keep nursing through this pregnancy... if there is a pregnancy...:loveeyes:
I am cramping like I'm about to get my period, which I did with my first baby. Hoping....

i feel silly posting here but i am thinking maybe. funny thing i was laying with a headache and just wanted to DtD , trying to decide if the deed is worth moving with the killer headache. when suddenly DH kisses me (i had a pillow on my head so couldn't see) so i tell him how funny it is and he says sex is good b/c it made our beautiful girl (she was sleeping in the room) and we DtD. then he had to go work and DD#1 gets home i read her a bedtime story that asks what you wish for and she said a little brother. it was all very strange and magical and i had gossbumbs. that was the 26th. i have had some cramping and stuff since then. i am hoping but feeling silly and after dh (who doesn't want another baby) heard dd's dream he called a sex ban. :lol i told him we could just use something now. anyways i am foolishly hoping, foolishy reading everything as a symptom and i am hoping ot to be crushed with a no. although i don't know when i will test. My DD#2 is almost 8 months and my period hasn't returned yet. so it's probably just silliness on my part.
anyways sorry for the long post i haven't told anyone yet.

Still waiting to know... had a BFN this morning but it was way too early, I know. (10dpo) I went to the dollar store yesterday and got a couple of tests I wouldn't mind wasting. I know I should wait longer to test!
I really got the feeling that I was the morning after we DTD... but I'm scared that it's just all in my head. Still having cramping and have since 2dpo... would love some prayers sent my way!

Hi, mamas! We weren't TTC this month, but we had sex on my O day. :lol Our DD was conceived 3 days before O and we weren't trying then, either. :p
Here's my chart:
http://www.ovusoft.com/forum/chart.asp?id=mama2oneboy%26onegirl
I'm currently only 3 DPO, so I've got to wait until at least next Wednesday (Sept. 6). I'm really hoping for a BFP! :1praying:
Good luck and lots of baby and sticky dust to all!

any good news yet mamas?? i haven't tested again since the disappointing negative at 10dpo, but AF is two days late!! :)
Etoile
08-31-2006, 12:48 PM
Well I miscounted and my previous test was actually 9dpo. I couldn't help it and tested again yesterday 10dpo. Still nothing. I had my husband hide the other test, I will test again on Sunday which will be 14dpo...
I'm so scared it's all in my head. Pray for a miracle!

Depends on how long your cycles are and what test. The test I used was good for 14dpo or more.... some are good at 10. If your cycles are 28 days then you can guess that you ovulate around day 14 and can test on day 28.... adjust from there! Most test will be accurate from the day of your missed period.

Welll....I keep getting very faint BFPs. But only with internet strips. I am due for Af on the 13th....and I feel very silly posting b/c I experienced a horrendous m/c in July.
Well...I will keep out of here untill I know for sure. I am contemplating a blood test...but anyway...I hope I get to be here.

I have gotten 3 faint positives also. One on Monday with a good store brand test, and then 2 more Friday with the cheapo strips. I have no idea if I'm really pregnant, but 3 faint positives have to mean something! This was our first month of TTC, really casually, so I could still could get AF - sometimes I just get it late. It's weird knowing so early, but also not KNOWING for sure. Ugh!!!

Sadly, I won't be joining you all. :gloomy: I guess my cycle's just gone irregular again. Still haven't gotten AF but not one BFP and as far as I know there is only a very very slim chance to not have gotten one by now.
Hope you all have healthy pregnancies and babies. :o

sorry sara and joshsmom.
i tested (way to early i tested on the 4th and i think it won't be working until about the 11th) it's negative. but since it's so early i am still holding out hope. i just never felt like i have. i have never known i was pregnant but things seem diffrent. more cramping today, sore back and hips. but that could be b/c of the high heels i wore for hours at a wedding or helping my mom move or b/c my new native is to big and a little uncomfortable.
i'm still hoping to join you ladies.

Hi. I don't "feel" pregnant at all. But I'm a few days late and today is 16DPO. No POAS yet- I have been out of town the past week and didn't want to spend money on tests (I have a pile at home) and don't want to get a BFP away from DH. I am going home tonight and will test tomorrow AM if AF hasn't shown up today. I am ambivalent about what result I want. I would love a baby, but for a variety of reasons this is not the best month for it to have happened.
I will let you all know tomorrow, either way. Feel free to check out my chart and make predictions. Best of luck to everyone else who is waiting and congrats to those who got good news.
