That's a good plan purple! Great idea to have something fun to look forward to if it doesn't work out. When we went HT it took so long to persuade DH and I promised him we would only try once. Then when it didn't work I wanted to try again - I can see the temptation for keeping going until you succeed. It is really very hard to walk away from this dream. If our IVF had worked I would be due this month. I had always said I wanted to have our last baby by the end of 2015 but I think we will give it one more month. Because of my long cycles I will actually miss ovulating in January and it would be into Feb. Then I can really say I tried as hard as I could, I tried everything. I really don't fancy a December baby and for me personally I feel the age gap between my kids etc will be getting too big to be looking to go into 2017. All my boys will be at school this year and I know it will be too hard to go back to the baby stage, plus I had really wanted to have my last child before I was 35 and I will be 36 soon. I know lots of people have kids later these days, including lots of my friends and my own parents, but for me I just wanted to be done by my mid 30s and time is running out! Im a planner! I really hope it's worked this month so I can just stop with the obsessing and uncertainty. I think we are all in a similar boat though!

Ttc, I feel the same way, I wanted to be done having kids young, before 35 for sure. Maybe even before 30. Sadly that didn't work out though it's really my own fault.
Girlie, I got my first positive OPK on NYE so you are 9dpo like me most likely. Unless you know you usually O 2 days after your first positive?
purple, cystic acne is awful (I had about as an adult), how awful to have it for so long. I understand totally about your preferences as when to give birth. I hope the Met helps! What star signs are your boys?
Nann, until you have flow it's not totally over. And I still don't trust those strips.

Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner

I caved and tested at 2pm (bc I had dark urine which is super rare for me), BFN of course. I never even get squinters, it's so disappointing! Just stark white BFNs. But my breasts are more sore today...this is why I should not test early, sigh.
tfahn, I hope your levels fade quickly.

Thanks. I just hate that I don't even get evaps. I am just not a good urine tester. I definitely won't test for a couple days if at all.
