Good luck purple!
Flava - sorry you're feeling so down. Hopefully you'll get a BFP after all and won't need to worry about this. I'll admit that after 4 months TTC every once in a while I wonder if I should just quit. DH doesn't really want a 4th child anyway, and money's already tight...but then I think about all the hard work I've done to lose all this weight and deprive myself of all my favourite foods for 5 months, and it makes me want to keep trying. I hope you make the best decision for you. :HH:
purplepoet - I'm glad you're here. Those sound like great signs!
Hi ~
Not having a good day. :( Had a blood prengancy test that the doctor asked me to go and do. My beta results were 5.9.... not good at all..... :(
I know absolutely nothing about the meaning of beta results, happyheart, but I'm sorry you're having such a bad day...:hug2:
mocha-ty it is very hard for sure...
happy- Im sorry about the bad day.XX
Hi ladies,
I can finally join you in the 2ww again!!! My temp went up a little so I'm hoping for a gradual rise. I think I'm 2 dpo today, I won't test early, I'll wait for the dreaded af!!!
Hh, I don't know what that means either but I hope you're ok
Flava, sorry you're down, fx this is your month!! the whole swaying thing is really hard work and I often feel like giving it up too
Mocha, how many dpo are you? Any symptoms??
Gl to everyone else!!!
Awww Flava hugw (((hugs))) to you. TTc is so hard, it was definitely the hardest and most emotional time of my life when I was ttc dc2. I really hope you come to a decision you feel at peace with although hopefully you won't need to as you will get your bfp this month. :HH:
Swish- yay for the temp rise, glad you are now in the 2ww, I'm 3dpo as well, time is dragging already!
Flava - I'm so sorry you're feeling so low. I can imagine how tough it has been for you. Hopefully its your early PG hormones!
HH - I'm not sure what your numbers are referring to but I'm sorry they're not what you'd hoped.
Hi Swish!!! You're a better woman than I by not testing til after AF!
I'm 10DPO now and had virtually NO symptoms today! So I'm caving and testing in the morning (its 9pm here). I was going to wait until Thurs but I need to put myself out of my misery - even DH commented on how impressed he was with my restraint! SO WATCH THIS SPACE TOMORROW MORNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happyheart, sorry you are feeling sad. The fact you have betas does that mean you are pg? Did the doc say that it was not a good number? ((hugs))
sassy - I'll be stalking this thread tomorrow!
swish - welcome to the 2WW! Let's hope that temp keeps going up!
I'm 8dpo today, and I caved and tested :oops:. Surprise, surprise - it was a BFN. I don't really have many symptoms - I've been gassy, I have a strange sharp cramp that comes and goes on my left side, and this morning I felt a bit nauseous when I woke up. They're all symptoms I've had during other 2WWs. I wish I had the patience of you other ladies, but I'll be testing every day from now until af.
Test away Mocha! The more you test, the more chance you'll have of it coming up pos!!! Well, that's my logic and I'm stickin' to it!
GL, Sassy!!
Mocha, symptoms sound good.
It's not that I'm patient or have willpower, I just find it depressing to see BFN and prefer to live in la la land!!! If I actually feel I have any real symptoms I probably would test
Indigo, will you test early?
Oh agree I have seen bfns everyday for an entire week lol its depression, I have been cramping since I thought I ovulated lol and just can't let go that maybe I still have a chance and it could be the latest bfp I ever got lol. Fx for you ladies, one of y'all gotta get a bfp for me lol ;)
Hi ladies
I have my FX for all of you!!!
I am feeling so sad! This stupid clomid! I am not a crier and I can't stop! :( I read online that it is a common side effect, but gosh.. this sucks! I feel so depressed. :( I do not think that I am pregnant and will not be testing unless I am past AF.
I feel like that I did the LE diet for 11 weeks... had our first attempt... then totally have been cheating for 10 days. Ugh... I am mad at myself!! I feel like this was my chance for a girl and next time I will not feel as confident....
Ok... I am an emotional basket case .... please forgive me for being a complete downer .. I feel stupid!!
I hope you all have a great day! :)
Swish- I am kind of with you in that it is better not to know rather than getting a bfn, it is just so hard waiting, especially if you feel (of imagine you feel lol) symptoms. I will probably test next wednesday.
Will you test again tomorrow Mocha? FX
3dpo... Still bloated, couldn't sleep much last night, and I feel like I have a fever standing in the 50 degree garage was heaven!
I have always found beta testing interesting, the short version... anything under 10, close to AF, is like a bfn or a chemical. From the second your body "knows" the numbers are doubling and it can help to figure out how far along you are. No one's numbers are the same so you normally have to go in 2-3 times at the same time each day to find the formula for your body.... it can start from a small number and end up in the billions. It is also an early sign of multibles because the number will grow differently if you have 2-8 babies.
swish-good luck to you!
indigo-you think I get a bfp lol ty I just don't feel so god about the BD pattern what we did. I guess the sway was good so well see.
sassy-thanks but if DH don't want to ttc we are not going to.
Hope you get that bfp ! Did you test yet??
mocha-sorry for the bfn but it's is early so lets hope you will get a bfp!
happy- sorry about stupid clomid! Hope it give you a bfp!
purple- you sure sounds pregnant! let's hope this is it!!!
ummm me I don't think I have symptoms ...some cramps but I had it last month too and we did not try last month. Also Im very tired but I guess that is from the little cold I have .
It's ok if I get a bfn because if DH don't want another baby then why , right?
I know the only reason he want to try because he want a boy:sad: but there is no guarantee we ever get one. I think chance is super low!
So I really don't want to see him sad , disappointed ect. so better we don't even try.
FX to all the new 2WWers!!
Flava, still no AF? When do you plan to test?
My temps have been jumping all over creation so I probably should just stop temping until AF arrives or I get a BFP because I'm totally obsessing about it. Are you ladies temping at all? Zanacal, how about you? If so, what did yours look like? There are months my temps are screwy, but this is nuts.
My Ovulation Chart
hi all! dtd last night and doing it again tomorrow. dh was a huge team ay
player! drank a rockstar, iced his goodies and wore our dd's bike helmet while preparing! he is too much! anyway gl to everyone hope to hear some.bfp's soon!

Hope.ful, i have temped and stopped because I found it confusing, it may be avgood sign or it may just be screwy temps!! I'm temping again now so I know I've ovulated so I'm obsessing all over again! I know your temp stays high if you're pregnant and if it drops you know af is on the way!
Pp, your signs look promising, gl!
Hh, I have a few friends who took clomid and crying and being emotional were things they experienced. Please don't feel next cycle won't be a good sway, you can't spoil 11 weeks of hard work in 10 days, you can always get back on track. Who knows, maybe you need the extra nutrients to actually get pregnant, I think I do!! Having said that, you migh still get your bfp, fx!
Flava, still got fx or your boy bfp, timing doesn't matter, you still have a good chance
Everyone else, happy testing!! I'm ignoring everything I think s a symptom as I had them all last time and got bfn!!!
hope-Im only 6dpo so need to test.Last month I only got 10 days after O and then AF.So I guess I wait 10 days. Or I just don't test and see if AF comes.
hope.ful - your temps are interesting lol! I wonder what's going on. I'm still temping, I always do after O to have something more to obsess about! Good luck, hope they just carry on rising!
And it's a BFN :(
Majorly disappointed but AF not due til sun so still might be a chance. However will all 5 of my PG's I've had a BFP by now so not holding much hope. Now I feel like hh - I had a good sway, my diet has been crap since O and I'll not be as confident next time around. Bugger.
{hugs} Sassy and HH - still keeping my fingers crossed for both of you x
that's me too, I should of already gotten a bfp by now, like I have with all my other pregnancies, I don't know exactly when I ovulated so af should be here today but no later than Friday, and I did quit my le diet so I will be taking a break next month because of it :( so big hugs to you, know exactly how you feelQuote:

Thank you flava! I have been thinking about you!!
Hi hope.ful ~ I am totally going crazy with temping! It drives me nuts a little bit and make me worry when the results look odd.
Does anyone know if your BBT has to be over 98.00 to be pregnant??? Someone told me that I can't find any info on it.
Hi Tink18! Sending lots of blue dust your way!
Sassy ~ thank you for your response! It was helpful to hear!!! I always get a postive by now too! I have such an emotional day and I am praying that there is still a good chance or that I am not having a chemical due to the small amount of HCG that was detected in my blood. I have not had a postive pregnancy test yet. If AF comes, I plan to continue through next month and TTC even though my diet was not great.... I have gone back to it for the most part starting this morning.(((Hugs))) to you!!! It's still early and there is definitely still hope!! I was reading online that many women do not get positive tests until they are late! :) FX!
Hi zanacal!! :) :) :)
xxdreaming ~ I have been thinking about you!! FX for you!!
I am now spotting.... ugh...
I've had temps above 98 and not been pregnant - even had a 98.5ish when ttc and still not pg. I wondered if it just didn't stickQuote:

So I bought more test, might as well test until af shows lol tonight I am debating if my areolas look darker lol still mild cramping and some mild lower back ache, wish I would just get a bfp or af show up already lol ready to get off this roller coaster lol
Oh and my cervix is very high and hard to reach, not soft but not hard, I know your cervix isn't a reliable pregnancy test lol but it does help me on when af will show :)
Ok, ladies - I;m shaking right now. I woke up this morning (9dpo) and tested with FMU and FRER. I left the test to process and started getting my sons' breakfast. I almost forgot to check it again since I'm sooo used to BFNs and was sure this was going to be one (I tested with an IC last night and it was stark white). About 10 minutes later I saw it sitting there and decided I should look. FAINT LINE!!!!!! I can't believe it! I was starting to believe this wasn't my month - I have barely any symptoms at all. I had far more symptoms in my BFN months.
So, now I'm dealing with the decision zanacal had. Do I start eating normally right away or do I wait until the line gets a little darker? AF isn't due until Sunday or Monday. I've never had a m/c or chemical before, but I've seen too much heartache on these boards to think I'm impervious to that. I've been dreaming of that first post-BFP meal since I started the diet on May 1st...I'm on my own with ds3 today while the old kids are in school. I'm sooo tempted to take him out to lunch in a fast food restaurant. And breakfast? It just feels so weird to even consider eating breakfast.
Mocha, I replied on the sept thread but in case you see this first...Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I am so happy for you,xxxxxx
I would not hesitate at all, start looking after this little bean and eat, eat, eat!!! Enjoy a lovely lunch out with DS3 and yes to breakfast too!!
I still have that size 00 dress to contend with - the wedding is a week and a half away. Do you think I should exchange it for a size 0?
omg omg omg how exciting mocha!!! (And I believe I would eat lol)
Idk about the dress when exactly is the wedding again and how far along guessing wise would you be?
Hey Ladies, I've been MIA dealing with this low sperm count crap, and am technically not in the 2ww anyway, but so excited to pop on and see MOCHA with a bfp!!! EAT GIRL, EAT! Your egg is fertilized so it doesn't matter now! CONGRATS!!!!
HappyHeart, I am sorry the Clomid is making you weepy....did that for me too. Hang in there, sometimes it takes a few months. Hugs~
And my team blue girls, huge FX for you all of course!
I haven't read too much, but will be back to obsess pretty soon, although I am going to be chill because I am a whiner lately. (: FX for everyone, sorry if I missed you!
Lola - never apologize for whining! That's what this board is for - if we can't whine here, where can we whine??
Thanks for all the congrats. The wedding I'm going to is October 1st, so it's a week and a half away. Right now the size 00 dress fits like a glove, but I doubt after that many days of eating normally it'll still fit. Maybe I'll wait until next week and try it on again to make sure.
sassy-sorry about the bfn but you have 4 days 3 days before sun so you can get a bfp!
XX-same for you ! Hope no af!
happy- Im sorry about the spotting...you think it's af?
