Lauren- didn't get around to doing this earlier but hopefully this will help you understand (attached pic). during your LP there is a second surge of estrogen (the body's way of acting "pregnant until proven otherwise") in a non-preg cycle your estrogen will slump again before AF (but not as low as progesterone will since once AF starts estrogen will again be the dominant hormone). In a preg cycle it will remain elevated to help support the pregnancy. This is the "flux" I was talking about and why "fertile" CM may show up after O and why fertile CM after O doesn't necessarily mean low progesterone. Does that make sense?

Yes!! Thanks two! I told myself I wouldn't get my hopes up this cycle and that I wouldn't be anxious but who am I kidding? My nips are killing me and the sex dream (of the lesbian variety) really threw me for a loop. That was major pregnant lights in my mind. I just need to talk myself down. Lol

:giggle: The fact that both (I am assuming both, I know you said the nips were) out of the norm for you bodes well. There are no guarantees until you actually see the BFP on the stick but it bodes well :bigsmile:

Since mid-late cycle in February :)
Charted with ds2 as well

Twointow I can't believe some people can get pregnant - your SIL sounds like an awful person who truly does not deserve to be pregnant let alone have kids at all. Sorry that sounds harsh but I'd say the same about my own family/friend if they behaved the way you described. It would be hard to know whether to be more angry than just plain sad....

On a different note after having a lovely coffee out with my mum I suffered aweful indigestion which even made me nauseous!! Had to get some rennies stat lol!!

So between the milk craving 2 days ago and indigestion today I'm going say if I don't see a bfp over the next couple days I'll eat my hat!!! I honest to god believe I am preggers!!!!

Yeah. I saw her tonight and she was like "now it's your turn to try" like I want to be just like her or something. SMH.

Two, I'm so sorry that such a human being exists. I'm even more sorry that you have to be acquainted with her! I am most sorry that she is able to bear children. That is just a shame. I have never understood parents who don't cherish their children as the precious gifts they are. :(

FX for everyone who will be testing soon!! :D

I can't pretend that I'm not terrified for my appointment in the morning (8am EST). :nails: I'm hoping that I'll have the results around 4 hours after my appointment since that's what happened on Thursday. :pray: I'm kind of confident because my tests keep getting darker but I was secretly hoping that they'd be much darker than they've gotten. I'll try to post the ones I took this morning.
