    All welcome

  • My period is due tomorrow, and I'm pretty sure AF is on her way, plus we've had sex once this month on day CD11, so I have zero hope.

    Good luck and best wishes to you other ladies.

  • TWW till New Year's eve... seems so far away right now, but I'm feeling hopeful this cycle. And probably starting clomid next cycle if I'm wrong and it's a BFN.
    Good luck to everyone!!! May we have some will power as POAS addicts. ;)

  • I'm in the 2ww after FET Beta 12/30
    Trying to Conceive Ticker
  • I am in the phantom symptoms, optimistic phase of the 2WW.

    I 'felt' implantation, and now I am nauseous, dizzy, and feel like my digestion is on super-slow (which was one of the things that happened right away when I was PG before).

    Every month I play this game.

  • @rachelinouray I am exactly where you are, down to the phantom symptoms.

    Backstory: 
    I am on CD 22, took Clomid on days 3-7, received trigger shot of Ovidrel on day 12 (so I think I ovulated on day 13.) RE's office told me to test on day 28.

    I tested yesterday to test out the trigger and it was negative. I am a paranoid person and know I wouldn't trust a positive test without knowing the trigger was gone. 

    I'm having tons of phantom symptoms which I really wish would go away since they are really messing with my head. I've been nauseous since Thursday, my digestive system is a mess and I can't stop burping. I'm also really tired and have been having trouble getting through my usual 5 mile runs.

    I also think I may have felt implantation. I had a lot of cramping on day 17 and I never cramp in the middle of the month.

    Good luck to all of us!
    BFP: 5/10/14 after 14 cycles of trying!
    EDD: 1/21/15
    5/12 1st beta: 28
    5/14 2nd beta: 87.5
    5/23: 3rd beta: 4000.6 + saw gestational sac and yolk sac
    5/30: 4th beta: 17,852 + saw fetal pole and heard heartbeat! 127 BPM!
  • @samuelismomma DO yo have the cheap wonderfro? I tested every other day after trigger so I knew when it was out, for me it was very quick....I have heard of other ladies having the trigger linger.

    Best of luck to everyone!

  • I tested this morning and BFN. No AF and I'm in the mindset that this is not my month again.  My sweet husband said that nothing is over until I get my period and I just fell apart crying.   I was really hoping this month would be it.

  • @samuelismomma thanks :)   My heart pounds every time I poas.    And then a BFN.   I just feel so down today.  I thought this month might have been it.   I know I'm not out until AF shows, but I feel defeated already.   According to my calculations, I should have gotten a positive now if I was pregnant.

  • Got home late last night feeling so hopeful after Christmas Eve that included little kids and even an newborn. Felt like I was having a really great cycle and that this was our month. Went to get ready for bed, and I started spotting. I just broke down. Low progesterone and the past few cycles I have been spotting 9+ days prior to AF.  I have blood work tomorrow and I'm starting Clomid next cycle. I'm just devastated today. I would have been able to handle this better if it had started just 24 hours later. I have such tough time with days like today... all the kids, opening gifts... 

    I suppose the positive side is that my TWW is really only a 1WW and it's not as torturous of a wait. But it sucks none the less.

    Baby Dust to all of you still waiting to POAS! And to all BFN's, I'll see you in the next TWW!

    Merry Christmas to all celebrating today!

  • In the TWW until New Year's Day, but our timing makes this month very unlikely. That didn't stop me from stocking up on pregnancy tests and OPKs because POAS... Good luck, ladies! Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday.
  • And I'm out again this month :(   Good luck to everyone still in the game!

  • @samuelismomma thanks.  :)   I've decided to start temping and OPK'ing this month.   I even bought two different kinds of OPK's to do a "science experiment" this month...make sure I'm getting the same reading off both.  hahah.   Best of luck to you this cycle!
