I wasn't temping at all after O. That is always my rule...And it was nice.... but then I got disheartened because of all my bfn and no symptoms so I checked a few times. I guess it was my last hope. But I guess I will wait another day or two. Its only the dollar tests so I can do another tomorrow or Friday. I'm not ever late after confirmed O either. My only hopes now are my higher temps.Quote:

[emoji30][emoji43][emoji30][emoji43][emoji30] I did it again. Argh. I tested at 12 dpo and[emoji810] BFN[emoji810]. I had to. I'm so hungry and i want to eat breakfast and snack... I feel like a food junkie. The only thing that is ok so far, are my temps. In other cycles they drop instantly at AF so there really isn't a warning, nor is it a help. But they are a tad higher. Temps are not high, but .4 degrees higher than normal. Not much. But a tiny difference enough to keep me hopeful. Ugh. They weren't joking about 2ww. It's awful. My other kids just happened. I didn't plan, just didn't prevent. [emoji810]

I'm sorry for the BFN. I know it's so depressing to not see that line. :( You're not out til AF shows up, as they say. Fingers crossed for you. Baby dust!Quote:

It looks very promising Raising:fx:
Good luck ladies! I will say, my bfp cycle I was testing everyday with internet cheapies and frers and they were stark white until BAM, clear as day bfp. No squinters in between at alllllllll! DH and I almost lost our minds staring at those @&!? sticks!!!
That's awesome. Mine are nothing as high as that... which is why I think it isn't my month. Its higher than regular but I'm not overheating like I normally have been. Mine are usually low 97 and now they are high 97 at 7 am. [emoji17]Quote:

Ok I said I would not test until I actually skipped my period but I broke down and tested 13dpo. I have only ever used the digital with my other pregnancies so no clue if this is an evap line? I googled and some people say it's not possible to have an evaporation line with a HCG because the only thing that can cause pink is the actual HCG so just water or urine without HCG would not cause it - is this true? Has anyone tried with, say, DH urine and got an evaporation line (I am thinking I will try this tonight when DH is home). Sorry, these two line tests are all new to me but I am trying to be good about not wasting money...
I had dull aches yesterday like period cramps so maybe (probably) I am just grasping at straws but yesterday and today I kept getting dizzy spells when I was standing which never happens to me. I only get them if I stand too fast but not when I have already been standing.
EDIT: Just tested again, set the timer for 3 sec and then set it for 3minutes. Here is the result. Can you see a faint line?
Top test = 1pm today
Bottom test = 8am today

Congrats dreamofadaughter! That's bfp for sure!
Here's another pic after 10 mins! Less of a squinter

Wow, thanks for the replies! Oh I hope I just implanted late. Seems like a faint test for one day before my period doesn't it? I would have thought it would be stronger. I am praying it is healthy and not a chemical (I'm so scared because I hear many women over 40 say it doesn't stick)...
Cautiously excited! :)
I got a super faint line two days before my missed period and it gradually darkened. It was a squinter like yours as well. That's definitely a positive test. Crossing my fingers you have a wonderful, healthy pregnancy! :)
Yeees!!! Yay!! I was looking at your chart thinking you should test very soon!!Quote:

My 3rd pregnancy I had mostly 97s. I think maybe one or 98.03 ish ones but never as high as this time. Everyone is different! You could still be in! Fx!Quote:

I'm so tired of the diet and exercise and the waiting... AF isn't due till Sunday but I had a bfn on fmu with frer. And its 13 dpo. I know everyone tries to be comforting and says it's not over till AF, but I know there are fluke cases but it's not me. I remember when I had a MC I looked everywhere online for the people who spotting didn't lead to MC, and yeah there were a couple of people, but I still new it ws over. Generally when you are pregnant, you are pregnant. You arent googling 13 dpo bfn eventually becoming a bfp. Lol. I have no signs. Regular post AF temps. Clear stark, undeniable bfn. And I'm feeling discouraged. Not because I think it will never happen, but because I needed it to be fast so I don't second guess. And so I can stop swaying....
Sorry for the rant....

I’m sorry mom25boys, I feel the same exact way. I thought for sure 100% this was my month. Had so many symptoms and stupid af came this morning. I have two boys and lost my 3rd son at 18 weeks and had a chemical pregnancy last cycle. I’m wondering if I should just take these as signs it’s just not supposed to happen for me.

In out too. Got AF! We had our attempt on pos opk day. It was a blazing positive. We conceived DS in one cycle without tracking anything. This time, we've tried since June with opks, CB, FF, CM and no luck. I've stopped swaying as well. No exercise, eating breakfast, whole dairy. I just want to be pregnant :( I'm considering ordering the Ava bracelet today. Anyone tried it and found it helpful?

Sorry about your losses. The last two times I swayed, both pregnancies ended in MC.16 weeks a 8. So I dropped everything and had two pregnancies, DS 4 and DS 5, easily. I guess the only thing I know is it must be lowering fertility. I just dont know how much I want to sacrifice for this. And I'm terrified of MC also... even though everyone claims swaying doesnt affect it. I managed to get pregnant quite malnourished with my first 3 boys.Sent from my SM-G965U using TapatalkQuote:

I did J&D after about 15 minutes, and went to sleep. Nothing else. No abstinence. I have ZERO libido. O came hard and good. Extreme actually. I thought for sure it was the month. Had blazing OPK too and O on that same day. So BD was a few hours after O.Quote:

Started eating fish and chicken. I'll stay away from fortified food... ugh
And now moon phases, Chinese calendar (although debubked), and seasons are ALL not working in my favor for the next few months.

I hear you! I really do, I had 3 boys no worries and I understand how frustrating it is. Have you considered e4d? I’m not sure where you are with that,because you can move from there to e4d plus 1 at OPk, and then there’s a way to move from there. I think it’s SMEP.Quote:

I’m sorry to hear that [emoji17] boo to AF. And I get how frustrating it is. It does take normal couples 3-6 months to get pregnant , so it’s not unusual [emoji8][emoji8]Quote:

Ok so update! This new donor showed up!! We met at ihop and talked with him and did paperwork and everything is great he is super nice! But we are not doing attempt till next cycle. It was 11 30 at night so everyone was tired and we just found out we are maid of honor and bridesmaid to my sister in laws wedding June 12. We didn't want to bring a new born baby to a big wedding so I rather just be big pregnant then [emoji23]. So now just waiting for CD 1..

I can't do vegetarian and make food separate for myself and my family. Im going to try to keep low on protein and fat, but I'm going to stop calorie counting. Whatever I eat will be what I eat. Im going to limit meat, but not eliminate. I'll keep skipping breakfast when I can. Just going to be more laid back about it. And I think I'm skipping J&D. I'm going to check out e4d, great idea. I know it is totally normal not to conceive right away. And I know many women wait months and months to conceive. I just don't have that time. Every cycle makes it more probable that I wont go through with it. Its straining on too much. Here's to trying again. To ttc girl in fall winter on a full moon.....Quote:

I also don’t have a great deal of time, so I’ve had to do things that are manageable for me and my family.
I’ve limited red meat, I don’t snack and delay my lunch , I make lots of vegetables or salads at meal times. And try and stay within the fat/protein limits. While adding full fats and some eggs, But that’s all I can manage, time wise and for me personally. I can’t do grains they really mess with my blood sugar.
And I can only do one coffee a day, and sometimes I have to have it with my meal, because especially from O -AF my blood sugar goes haywire. Hormones !!! Argh!!!!
I’ve been doing e4d and it’s actually quiet refreshing and simple , you don’t have to think about it, you just pick your method, 72 or 96hr version and that’s it. No opks or temp If you chose .
Big hugs [emoji847]
I caved in and tested early this morning. I'm 13 dpo and the test was positive before the control line appeared, that's never happened to me before. Is that normal? Is the test defective? I'm not sure whether to be excited or not. Calling OB to ask for bloodwork to confirm as that test was my last one and I don't want to be unsure. Attachment 40293
