Re: ***November TWW ***

  • @NewMommyCoop I am 9DPO. Trying to hold out for 5 more days. AF is due before that so that though! 

    @rainbowturtles and @NewMommyCoop Thank you both for the support and validation! It means so much to have a community of people who get it! I am thankful for this group everyday.
  • @kidria Sorry your friend is so wrapped up in herself now. I didn't like looking at scans before my MC, especially the 4D ones. To each thier own no matter the reason. It is a bummer when you are excited about something and somone close to you isn't, but that is just part of life.

    We can hold out on testing together!! You can do it!!

  • @rainbowturtles Thanks for the cheerleading!  Should I ever get a BFP again, I'll fill the message full with *TW* before screaming the news myself!

    @NewMommyCoop & @flipflopped Seems we are cycle buddies!  We can hold out on testing as a team!


  • @weareturtles sorry to hear about your test results. 

    @TScalei  Sorry you had a challenging day. I can't avoid seeing babies, I'm a pediatric nurse. It was hard at first but definitely got easier over time. 

    AFM- I go here now, According to my OPK's I am 1DPO. My goal is to not test until the 16th. I will likely cave or get AF prior to that but I don't really want to look at another bfn.

    @kidria I think you did the right thing by talking to your friend, maybe she's a little emotional herself and will later understand where you're coming from. 

    @weareturtles so sorry about your results  :'(

    @migdala Yes! I had blood work done on Thursday and today again, beta is rising as expected!

    @szwill86 I'm going to try to wait until I actually miss my period. Which should be Nov 20ish. (I have 33-34 day cycles, ugh) My fingers are crossed for you as well!

  • 6 DPO and this morning when I brushed my teeth, my gums bled. Which literally never happens. Symptom? Or just poor dental hygiene? I feel like it's too early for any symptoms but of course I am over-analyzing.
  • @migdala I hear bleeding gums is a sign. But don't let me enable you!!


  • So, this is my first month actively TTCAL (MC in July) and first time charting. I'm 12 dpo (CD 23) and yesterday had a large temp dip (although still above crosshair), a BFN this morning and some light spotting and cramping this morning. Should I give up hope for this cycle?  I'm 95% sure that it's not gonna happen, but still hoping maybe it will. 
  • The pre-AF spotting arrived so I'm officially out of contention. You can fine over at WTO.
  • @ejrose22 I wouldn't give up just yet, I got a BFN at CD29 and I had painful cramps which apparently were due to implantation because I got a BFP a day later, it was very very faint. I'm now confirmed with two beta draws.

  • @TScalei I'm so sorry about the BFN. It just sucks.

    I had a BSC moment last night and tested at 6dpo - BFN, obviously. I don't know what's wrong with me. But the masochism carried over into this morning and I tested again with FMU at 7dpo and another BFN. I know it's early and I'm insane. I am just struggling so much. I really had a good feeling about this cycle but now I feel really pessimistic that I'll get my BFP before my Feb EDD, which is a devastating thought for me. I don't know how I'll get through that.
  • @migdala I was feeling really good until sometime last night. Now my mood has changed and I'm in a bit of a funk. As I posted in the weekly thread, trying to decide if I want to know with  BFN or wait for AF. Maybe my body could just be kind with a BFP. I had a Feb EDD, so hopefully we will both be KU by then!!
  • @TScalei I don't know how I missed it earlier, but see if now. I am sorry for the BFN.

  • Thank you @flipflopped and @NewMommyCoop  
    We are really excited.  The wait already seems horribly long, but we'll manage.  

    I was diagnosed with APLS (anti phospholipid antibody syndrome) last month and the medication seems to be working.  FX for everyone here and hugs for anyone who has gone back to cd1 recently.  I know my thoughts and positive baby vibes are with you all!

  • I really hope no one comes into my office today because I am feeling myself up every 5 minutes testing for breast tenderness.  I am spiraling and I know it -- this is the worst I've done during the TWW, I don't know why this cycle is making me so crazy but I feel totally nuts :(
  • After many days with Wondfo's, I got solid lines on CD22. This is our second cycle since our loss. I'm 2DPO and am glad we have the election and all that to focus on over the next 12 days. Good luck all!

    @migdala I can relate! I walked down stairs and thought "ouch" with each step.

  • @TScalei  Bummer.  Sorry for the bad news.
  • @TScalei, @roxgibbons NOOOOOOOO! I was so hoping I'd be the only BFN this month. In this situation, I'd rather have no company. 

    @Taggarab I've got my fingers crossed for you. 10DPO is early no matter what the packaging says. The one BFP I did get, I got a few days after a BFN at 10DPO! 

    @migdala, @flipflopped I also had a Feb EDD. it's approaching so quickly I can't believe it. I'm not sure how I'll feel when the day finally arrives.

    @migdala I so empathize with the spiraling. Last night, after AF showed, it was all I could to not have a tantrum on the floor. I think I did manage to suggest to my partner that I was never going to get a BFP again. And I got all weepy in the car today. I was secretly a bit sure that I'd get a BFP this month. I had a temp drop, rising temps post drop, plenty of queasiness...it was just so hard to have the BFN this time. It's only getting more difficult. 

    Good luck to all still in this! I'm rooting for you! 
  • so sorry for all the BFN ladies. It's been a rough month around here :(
