Yahmama we must of been posting at the same time.that's promising isn't it if you don't usually have a line on the OPK.if I were you I would test daily with the OPKs and see if the line gets darker.sorry I'm such a pushy POAS addict I'm willing you to test lol but only because i love a happy ending.which when TTC a BFP is a happy ending :) GL !
I'm going to do an HPT and another OPK tomorrow am...My HPT strips are 25mIU, so they aren't as sensitive as some others...so I"m fully expecting a neg tomorrow, esp since I've never gotten a bfp earlier than 12 dpo...but here's hoping for a happy ending for the both of us! :)Quote:

I finally broke down and POAS this am and it was BFN :( I keep telling myself I've never ever in any of my pregnancies gotten a BFP before 12dpo, so I still have 2 days IMO! This test is a generic one that says it detects 25mIU/ml, so not that sensitive anyway.
Welcome! It definitely helps the agonizing 2WW to hang out and chat! I'm still driving myself insane, but at least it's not alone! GL to you! :cheer:Quote:

Ha, ha...I'm totally the same way! I want you to test NOW b/c I'm just so convinced you're knocked up!!!Quote:

Are any of you guys having any symptoms???
How many dpo are you, OOTB? Between about 5-7dpo I kept going crazy with preggo symptoms coming then disappearing. I was totally convinced one minute I had to be preggo, then 5 min later I was convinced I am! AAAAHHHH! THe insanity must END!!!!! My symptoms haven't disappeared anymore since yesterday, but waiting for a BFP! FX! Today I am SUPER TIRED!!! And I got 7 hours of sleep last night!Quote:

I wanted to get your opinions because I *think* I am 2DPO but I'm a little unsure. I know that ovulations tests alone aren't the best way to tell when you ovulate but they seem to have been pretty accurate with me in the past. AF usually arrives exactly 14 days after my 1st positive on the OPKs I normally use, which are the Up&Up (target brand) strips that come 20 to a tube (they are very similar to internet cheapies). This cycle I decided to also use a clear blue digital ovulation test (the one with the smiley). But I wanted to see if you ladies agree with my thinking.
CD13 Morning: negative strip, did not take digital
Afternoon:negative strip, positive digital
CD14 Morning strip iffy and digital negative,
Late morning 10:30 (but 4 hours later) both positive
CD 15-16 Morning and afternoon strip positive, digital negative
Based on this I really feel that I ovulated late on CD 14. We DTD CD 11 (wasn't expecting positive OPK just on a fluke), CD13 and CD14. Would you agree with this?
Yes, s/he will! :LotsofLove: So you've had less symptoms during months with a BFP? If so, :cheer: for no symptoms! :)Quote:

If this test isn't BFP tomorrow or Friday, I'm seriously going crazy because I know I'm not making this stuff up! I sure hope there's a sticky :xy: in here!!!
11dpo and STILL a BFN!!!! I don't know why I'm surprised, even though I'm annoyed bc my bb are more sore than ever this am and I'm in tears over not having any biscuits for breakfast :worry:
I'm about to go out and buy a FRER test because I am so over these cheapo strips I ordered on the internet. I got 40opk and 10hpt for 9.99...you get what you pay for, right? The opks worked great, but the HPT's seem like crap. Hoping 12dpo will be my lucky number:pray:
Jamie, I'm also inclined to think you probably O'd late on the 14th too! You're not temping/charting are you?Quote:

I’ve found a great kind of OPKs and HPTs now but I had some real duds before. You are wise to buy some other tests! I think the sore BBs are a really good sign, especially if you’re not BF right now. I’ll never forget my 1st pregnancy and those sore BBs!!! I didn’t know what hit me, especially having never been preg before. I’ve never felt them again w/my other pregnancies b/c I’ve always been BF so I don’t seem to get that soreness.
As I said yesterday, I really think you’re preggo b/c those are all really strong signs and you still are early. :fx: for you and of course am sending you heaps and heaps of blue dust!!! :luck:
Where are you at, J1W!?!?! Did you test today??? :pinksperm:!!!
Ohhh OOTB you have me Sussed already ;).I did.(shame on me) 6DP BFN wot else could I expect ? I will mist probably test daily until AF ?? Boohoo I mean BFP :)! Yah your not out till AF shows.I'm still hopeful for you.KMFX for you for tomorrow.this wait seems like forever to me.and I've got the usual Pre AF backache and achy legs :( as the days are passing I'm feeling more and more like AF will show up on boxing day but I'm still keeping positive.!Quote:

Just called the dr.'s office because I have to go on progesterone suppositories the first 12 weeks due to my prior miscarriages, so I'm just praying this one sticks!!!! Thank all you ladies for all your :bluecheer: I'm still keeping :fx: for all of you!!!

Congratulations Yahmama! What awesome news!:flowerz:
J1W, are you charting? I forgot whether or not you were. I just wanted to check out your chart. 6dpo is definitely early but since you usually get yours early, you may see 2 lines in the next few days...:bigsmile:
I'm feeling super tired and crampy...Probably not true signs yet b/c I'm only 7dpo and I've got a bad cold. I'm kind of tempted to test sooner than Sunday so if there is a BFP earlier, I can buy some goodies to make/eat on Christmas. I'm not looking forward to continuing the girl diet any longer than I have to. I'd be really lucky to get a BFP by Sun anyway but I'll definitely test then.
OOTB I do chart with FF I will try to post the link.hope it works,ohhh your symptoms sound very promising to me :) ! Ohhh maybe I was right.December might be the month for many BFPs FX
My Ovulation Chart
No I'm not I never have really had the need to before and I didn't want to stress myself out any more by attempting to start this cycle. I'm usually really good when knowing when I O though but it does get a little hairy when we TTC because I really start over thinking things. I'm pretty positive it was on the 14th though so I'm feeling good about it.Quote:

I'm really trying hard not to think about it right now and just focus on Christmas but it's really hard!
Yahmama: Congratulations! That's awesome hopefully this thread will fill up with similar announcements!
YAYAYAYAYAY Yahmama!!!! Congrats, and here's hoping for a sticky, healthy bean!
Congrats Yahmama! FX for you!!!! So glad to hear a BFP!!
Keep it up ladies!!!
Congrats!!!!Quote:

I think that's good that you didn't take up charting this time if you've not done it before b/c you may have been too stressed out.Quote:

Sending lots of :luck: :pinksperm: :luck: your way, Jamie!
I had a really bad headache yesterday and it's still hanging around today...:gloomy: I've drank soooo much H2O over the past 24 hrs that I have to pee all the time and still this headache persists. I'm hoping it's a preg sign but I'm still too early for real signs, I think.
Anyone have any signs today???
Spreading baby dust to all of you!!
Jen, I´m :pray: you get a Christmas bfp!
I think I'm out :( I have pink watery CM so this will lead to AF I'm sure,and I have the horrid pre AF cramps.trying to keep my spirits up but finding it very hard :( GL everyone and wishing you all a very merry Christmas !
Hello beautiful mamas!! I am jumping in here as I O'd on the 23rd... on with the 2WW! We have been swaying for a GIRL but not really doing stellar at it... so we shall see. I just had my IUD removed on the 9th and was so thrilled my body jumped right on board with a normal cycle first month out! we have 3 handsome DS so whether we are blessed with a DS or a DD I will just be thrilled to have a beautiful happy baby! (but... ya know... pink would be super flippin awesome, just sayin! haha)
lots of baby dust to you all! Praying we all get a BFP super soon!!
oh and on a random note, i am praying this is a BFP cycle mostly because it would put babys due date in time to start school right when they're 5, not have to wait a whole 'nother year and be almost 6 when they start kindergarten... i know, picky right. Im trying to micro-manage this process too much im afraid... :Angel:
Hey ladies - I think I'm finally back here - 1 DPO today, I hope. I think I O'd right around midnight last night!
Sorry, J1W...Maybe I'll see you in the next 2ww. :HH:
:wave: Hi, DIB!!! :luck: :pinksperm:
:cheer: Mocha!!! Wooo-Hooo!!!!
BFN for me at 10dpo...spotting yesterday & today...Thinking I'm on my way out but I'll test again if AF isn't here tomorrow.
