Welcome!

This is a revolving buddy group for women in the same part of their cycles to compare notes and symptoms. We also have a "Waiting to O" buddy group for members who are still waiting on ovulation. Every so often, a moderator will start a new thread for you.  If you feel a new thread is needed, please use the Report Abuse feature to let the moderators know.  Good Luck! Baby Dust

Moving onto Feb! Only have a sec and have to run back to work! I of course broke down and tested today at 8 dpo. So ridiculous, I know. Its my birthday and I just thought how great it would be to get a BFP on my bday! Of course it then stunk to get a BFN on my bday. Ah well. I am going to try not to test tomorrow and try again at 10 dpo. I know I should wait until at least 12, but I am just not going to be able to. haha

Jillian- so sorry to hear about your chemical :( thinking about you!

Soooo... AF was due yesterday or today and hasn't showed up (yet).  This morning, I had a temp dip and got a BFN.

After not starting AF today (though feeling a little crampy), I checked and cervix still feels high and soft, and CM is still white.  I opted to POAS tonight (on one of the $1 cheap ones, but the higher sensitivity one) and after 5 minutes I think.. I may have gotten... a squinter!! Surprise

Literally had to take it to the kitchen (brightest light) and DH said he could see it, too. It doesn't show up in photos though - it's really light.

So, I stupidly got out an expensive test and forced out whatever little pee was left and dipped it in a cup, and it came back negative... so, maybe it was not as sensitive as my strip, and with it being end of day/diluted pee it didn't show up.

Fingers CrossedI am trying to be cautiously optimistic... and will retest tomorrow.Fingers Crossed

Jillian - I am so sorry Broken Heart

FamFive2 - Yes those are my kids bdays in my ticker.

Sorry to all who got Aunt Flo I am thinking she is a coming for me too.

AFM - I had CM dry up and then today I am super wet and having creamy CM. ??? What gives. I dunno. Still not 100% what dpo I am. Chart says one thing, but I think it is off two days cause of the semen obscure. I am leaning towards 7dpo.

EDIT: I put in my CM to the software and now it is saying I haven't O yet at CD 21. That can't be right! Arg...I wish I could temp Angry

FamFive2 - Thank you ! And yes...there is just no way to know until I test again or AF shows...

jillianwantstobeamom28 - So sorry to hear that, I had a very early miscarriage (5 weeks) last November, that was our first month not TTA and I had already told my family I was pregnant when I started bleeding...It's so hard, but I know our baby will come soon, so will yours!

AFM -Today I am 15dpo and I haven't really had any symptoms the past two days, no sign that AF is coming though either and the lack of symptoms is somewhat discouraging for BFP

On the other hand, my temp is still up...

Hmm waiting until Friday am to test...still have hope Fingers Crossed

Baby Dust to all!

Ricosha - Fingers Crossed for you!  I've always heard that a line is a line, whether it's faint or dark.  Hoping for good news!

AFM - I am a week away from AF, guess that puts me at about 7 dpo.  Was NTNP this month, but only BD'd once, and we were pretty careful about it, since I didn't really want to start trying until my Feb. cycle.  But if it happened, I would definitely be happy!

Good luck to everyone on here, whether you've been ttc for 5 years or 2 weeks :)  I'm still trying to figure out how to do personals....my guess is that I'll need to open up another window.  Shrug

Star- since you can't temp, maybe you could do OPKs? They could help pinpoint O a little better. I know I get creamy and sometimes EW during my TWW, too.

DramaMama - Hugs to you.  I hope the Clomid does the trick.

happylittlecappy - So sorry for your loss. I hope you get that BFP this cycle or next!

ateach - Happy Birthday!  Hope you get a BFP as a belated present!

natalie - I just bought a second pack yesterday because I am going through them way too quickly!  I don't want DH to know...LOL!

ricotta - OMG!!!  Yay!  Can you post a pic of the squinter?  I hope it is much darker today.  I can't wait for you to post!!!

MrsMagnolia - how long is your LP usually? Really hoping you get that BFP on Fri!

AFM, 9 DPO and a BFN.  Last month's BFP and the one for DD2 came on 11 DPO so I probably won't get discouraged until then.  AF is due on the 5th or 6th so the waiting is almost done.  I am still a little nauseous today and got really excited when I realised I have a sore boob, but later decided it is actually just a sore pec muscle from working out.Indifferent Big girl is home sick again and now we have some antibiotics so I hope she is better soon.

Bad news.  I think I had a bad test.  It was a squinter plain as day.  But within 2 hours of taking it, my cramps got worse, and AF arrived with a vengeance at bed time.  Cramps so bad I was up all night.  Why is she so evil?  It's bad enough she arrives to say "Sorry - you're not pregnant."  But she tops if off with "In case there was any doubt, I want you to be abso-effing-lutely miserable just to be sure."  Sad

Maybe next month. Broken Heart

FamFive2 - Thank you and I hope this is your month!  The nausea is definitely a good sign and I'd take one sore boob over no sore boobs any day...even if it could be from working out . :)  My little guy is sick and on antibiotics as well - seems like all of his friends are sick too!

Ricosha - I'm so sorry....how cruel is that?!  Hug  I used to get terrible, awful cramps....the bang your head against the bathroom wall kind.... before my surgery for endo and subsequent pregnancies.  I know how you're feeling and hope you're up and about again soon....Baby Dust for a late February BFP!

AFM - I'm just hangin around, not really expecting anything....fixed my chart now so it actually shows ovulation date...and I think it's right on!  I know it's weird, but with both of my pregnancies I would get weird random muscle twitches (in my face or arm, for example) before I knew I was pregnant.  Nothing this time around, but who knows?

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forums and this group but thought I'd jump right in Smile

I'm 8dpo and my previous LP have all been really short (10 days at the longest) but I've been taking vitamin D, raspberry leaf tea, and avoid raw and cold foods all this month, so hopefully that will help.

I'm gonna try to hold off testing until at least 13dpo but I've already been experiencing a few symptoms. I've been nauseous all morning today, I've been super tired the past few days, and I had a crazy vivid dream last night in which I was eating a bunch of dairy products (I'm vegan) and woke up super nauseous from it.

Hi All

Been reading some of the posts but thought i'd wait til feb started to join.  i am currently 7 dpo (or could be 8 as not 100% sure on my temp that day).  This is the first month i have some hope, been ttc since forever but started acupuncture in december and this is the first month that my temps so far have been consistently higher.  Pretty much all my previous cycles were annov i think now. 

So the Baby Dance was well timed either way and the temps are high - fingers crossed this could be the month!  Since O I have had sore bb's on and off, mild intermittant cramps and had a spot breakout!  So feeling quietly hopefull even though i know that it could mean AF as well. 

Ricosha - that is very unfair, sometimes it seems life & your body conspire against you - hope you have better luck next cycle Fingers Crossed

GL to everyone waiting - hope you all get the BFP you want this month Baby Dust
