I am not familiar with Crystal Clear however I haven't heard of any test that gives a false positive?? Did you read it within the time allowed??Quote:

Ladies, post pics of your BFP I like to live through you until I get mine or I am out!!!
It's notorious for blue evap lines, usually after 10 minutes but sometimes quite quickly, so it's not a useful result. I'm testing Monday, I've decided. Good luck to everyone elseQuote:

Morning girls! I couldn't sleep properly with the excitement of testing and despite the weekend I am up early POAS! I used a proper brand this time round and the second urine (thank you WantingPink for the tip) and it did the trick. I got a very clear BFP. I am over the moon but it's still early days. The due date would be 1.9. which is coincidentally our wedding anniversary :-) DH had a day off yesterday so he knew straight away. He was very pleased and slightly surprised that it's possible to get pg like this. Good luck Thorz300, are you retesting this morning? Mum to 3 girls dont loose hope, I did at 11dpo and I regret it now (I literary overdosed on sweeteners) I wish I waited longer, plus I was just guessing when I ovulated, I wasn't checking the temperature (I only used OPKs) so its possible I am still on 12 or 13dpo. I will send pics from my desktop later on today.

What a wonderful early Christmas gift!
Happy & Healthy 9 Months! :pregnant:
Here is the picture but the quality is not great. The first test was done yesterday (i think 12dpo) and last two were done this morning. Attachment 7434
YAY THAT IS FOR SURE A POSITIVE!!!! CONGRATS!!!! I am really excited for you!
I'm not going to test again until tomorrow or maybe even monday. I am only 9dpo today and I really don't want to be let down quite yet!
Huge congratulations to Onthepond and Girlsway!
Fertility friend is telling me that I'm 3dpo today, but I'm sure it's wrong as the first elevated temperature, while slightly higher than the preceding temps, is a typical pre O temp for me. The following two temps are way higher. I've tried changing the settings on ff, but it just keeps telling me I'm 3dpo. I'm only 2dpo.
So this is my first time ever doing temps. I'm 9dpo and my temp went from a steady 8.5-8.6 range and this morning it was 8.15 so is this normal? Does it mean AF is coming? I need to just stop obsessing and enjoy the Holidays and wait until AF comes. It would be nice if I could just not POAS until after AF is due, but we all know that is too hard!
Here is my chart
http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/40b39c/
I wouldn't worry about it, it's nowhere near the coverline. It could be a secondary estrogen surge or implantation dip.
Congratulations!! I am so happy for you and so glad the "SMU" worked for you!! How exciting!! Hopefully I will see you in the August due date... do you kind of figure out when you are due?Quote:

I know what you mean about waiting to test. I started testing 8 DPO and every time I got a neg I had to keep telling myself "it doesn't mean anything". I think if you can wait that would be good. Also, part of me wanted to know exactly when I started testing positive to see if it meant anything about the gender. GL and let us know when you decide to test!!Quote:

I don't want to get my hopes up right now but seriously I have a laundry load of symptoms: SUPER irritable, weepy, low low low energy, ALWAYS thirsty, crazy sense of smell, food aversions, nausea, headaches, I had a vaginal itch that went away, I wake up with a stuffy nose but I am not sick, and dull sharp pains in my uterus.....there are a lot more but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.....tomorrow I will be 10dpo and part of me still doesn't want to POAS! I think I am feeling extremely lonely too (maybe another symptom) because we are from Utah, and now live in Ohio, far away from family and it is the holidays and my husband is on call at the hospital all weekend and 2 of my 3 boys are sick....last month I think I had a chemical, so I am almost bummed I have signs and symptoms because I don't want to get my hopes up. Sorry, I think I am just really lonely, with my hubby being gone, and super emotional, I don't mean to have a pity party on here, but right now its the only communication I have with people older than 6!!! I have facebook too, but I'm not the kind of person to air my emotional issues on facebook lol!
Congratulations!!!Quote:

He is so sweet, I must look so deflated every month and I try so not to show it!!
Oh YAH I SEE it!!!!
I know exactly how you feel and I know it is tough especially this time of year. Hang in there!! All your symptoms are the exact same ones that I had especially being thirsty, irritable, and my pregnancy "smell" kicked into high gear on 10 DPO. I think you are a strong person to have waited this long to test... I say go for it tomorrow!! Just remember that a neg doesn't mean anything but a positive definitely would:) Hope you don't feel so down tomorrow. You should do something really fun with your kids tomorrow. Take them out to breakfast, bake and decorate cookies, make a gingerbread house.Quote:

Your sweet! I did POAS this morning BFN ugh oh well....I cant go anywhere because my 4 year old is super sick high fever of nearly 104 poor kid was sick with strep throat on his birthday last month now gonna be sick on Christmas! Ugh on top of it all my 22 month old suddenly won't sleep through the night or take naps and just screams and screams and screams! Even when he sees me getting his pajamas out at night he starts throwing a fit. I don't know what to do he used to sleep so well now suddenly it is almost like he is terrified to sleep. I don't know what to do. Luckily everything is good with my oldest he is a very helpful 6 year old!Quote:

GL on your next cycle! I see you have 3 DD how long did it take to conceive each of your DD and how long have you been ttc this time?Quote:

With DS2 I got a BFP at 9 or 10DPO but I actually wasn't trying to get pregnant with DS1 and DS3 so I didn't find out until after AF was due.Quote:

Mum to three girls, sorry you got AF, at least you know what's going on now though. Good luck for next month.
Thorz you're still really early, I got a BFN at 10dpo with DS2 and then a very faint BFP at 11dpo.
Pebmcp6 I really hope this is your month. Your DH is probably right as it's unlikely you would get a BFP at 7dpo, I hope you get a BFP in time for New Years!
I think I'm going to stop temping now. I've confirmed that I've ovulated, I don't want to stress myself out looking at patterns in my chart. I'd rather be blissfully unaware if my temp is falling!
This waiting is awful lol I don't remember Bein this bad wi my other three xxQuote:
Originally Posted by Thorz300
I totally agree Dazie, this waiting stuff is terrible, I didn't really think about it at all with the other 3 but this time since I was swaying pink, I got a lot more involved in the details, sometimes I really wish I hadn't!
Hi - Iv been around but I have posted this month because the docter told us not to try untill we had sorted out some issues. But I just tested (I want a few drinks over xmas so need to make sure) and just got the surprise of my life when i saw to very dark lines!!! 12dpo.
Ekkk!!! Do i tell hubby today or for xmas or what!
I had a slight suspision because everytime I coughed i had a sharp muscle pulling sensation down inside my pelvis.
Congrats!!! What an exciting Christmas gift!!!Quote:

I've only been "trying" for two cycles so far but swaying seems to give the whole thing a different focus. I'm 39 now though and that's what I'm blaming the chemicals on! I'm also a bit worried that the breastfeeding (my youngest is 10 months) may be affecting implantation but I have had very regular cycles since about three months post partum and DD2 was conceived easily whilst feeding DD1. I'd hate to wean to conceive and not be able to.
Even though I'd love a wee boy I'd really just love a baby. We always wanted 3 or 4 and the main reason for having a 4th would be to balance things out. The first two are only 19 months apart in age and are BEST FRIENDS (and worst enemies) but they very close. There's a 4 year age gap between DD2 and DD3 which was due to post grad study and a whole heap of work and training stuff I wanted to finish off (even though I only work about 1 1/2 days a week now) so I'd kind of like her to have a buddy as well. Of course, we assumed it'd happen immediately and now that it hasn't we're going to have to sit down and work out when it's time to stop. Maybe in another 2-3 months?? If I got pregnant and it stuck next month there's be a similar age gap but if it takes another 6 months it would sort of defeat our purpose.
I'm not sure how much a boy sway will "work" for me as my diet is very boy (minus the sweets but they're easy to give up), I'm a runner and pretty toned and with bfing it's pretty hard for me to gain weight. I don't want to give up running whilst TTC (and my family won't thank me if I do, as it's my stress release and time away from the girls) and I don't want to stop breastfeeding. I can give the diet, supplements and pre seed a good go though!
Good luck to everyone still testing!
It is tough to have house full of sick kids with an absent DH. My youngest decided at about 2 that he didn't want to sleep in his room so we got him a turtle that lights stars onto his bedroom ceiling (similar to a dream light) and we got him a moon in my room. We told him that if he stayed in bed that we would keep the turtle and the moon in his room. It seemed to work really well. Plus you can't see the stars very well if the room is light so he actually liked the room really dark. A friend of ours had the same problem with their girl so they got her a beta fish for her room and told her that the fish would be lonely if she left it in the room by itself at night... apparently that worked too:)Quote:

Congrats Elements, I hope you get your boy xQuote:
