@sprkls8506. Hopefully you won't be able to get that mammogram.  

Uhlease13

Sorry for AF @babypi

@sprkls8505 I'm sorry to hear about your mom. Sending positive vibes (and that you get a bfp!) 

Hopefulmommy1980

@reneeannemm thanks  I am hoping it is just early

TScalei

@sprkls8506- I'm sorry about your mother - hoping she is okay very soon. My mother battled it twice - cancer just sucks. Also hoping for a BFP and no mammogram next week for you!

@Hopefulmommy1980- fx for you still! 

AFM, 8 or 9 DPO and trying to fight the urge to test early. I just really hate staring at BFNs so I'm going to try to hold strong to my no testing until Monday plan.

Hopefulmommy1980

@sprkls8506 I am sorry

SP128

@sprkls8506 fx for you and mom. 

9 dpo and temp dropped .4 degrees. Trying not to obsess over it. May test sunday. Af due tuesday according to ff

sprkls8506

Thanks everyone. I'm out. AF showed up. So I guess I'm calling around to see where my horrible insurance will be taken for a mammogram. Given that I'm 35 it will be fun since I think they suggest 40. I am always fighting with my insurance about stuff. Grrr! 

Shopping therapy at Target will def be happening 

Mack2342

@sprkls8506. I know all insurance is different but I think most will pay for a baseline mammogram at 35.  That's why I had one.  Sorry for AF:(   I love target shopping. Have fun

sprkls8506

@Mack2342 I hope ur right!! My ins is pretty terrible. 

TScalei

I'm sorry @mack2342 - Have fun at Target!

Mack2342

@sprkls8506. FX they cover it! You could also check around for some of those mobile mammograms.  My office just advertised one and stated it takes all insurance 

SP128

@sprkls8506 really so hate all the red tape with insurance companies. Sorry for af  just stinks all around. Have fun at target thought

Uhlease13

Sorry @sprkls8506 I'm right behind ya, be joining WTO probably tomorrow. Good luck with insurance, it can be so frustrating!

SP128

Spotting, 2 day temp drop and bfn yesterday at 9 dpo. Betting on being out. 

TheFox&TheSparrow

9ish dpo..BFN this morning. I'm going to wait and try again on Monday, but I'm not hopeful. 

TScalei

10 DPO and still holding out on testing. Really want to hold out on testing over the weekend and will test on Monday. I thinks days of BFNs really depresses me further. Before both of my pregnancies I had AF like symptoms so I can't even really symptom spot. Trying to be hopeful but just can't get my hopes up to high again. Ugh - this process just sucks!

Im sorry @SP128 and @TheFox&TheSparrow- fx it is still just too early.

TheFox&TheSparrow

@TScalei I totally get it girl, yes it totally sucks. Stay strong over the weekend! I already feel myself caving and thinking that tomorrow I should. Eep. FX that Monday is good news for you!

SP128

@TScalei stay strong. I hear you on seeing that bfn depressing you. I was not in a good space last night. Wish I wasn't so dumb. I'm still symptom spotting though. I feel like I'm a glutton for punishment. I'm fooling myself in thinking that spotting is ib!!

sorry that you had a bfn too @TheFox&TheSparrow

RiverSong15

So sorry for the BFNs @SP128 and @TheFox&TheSparrow

@TScalei I'm rooting for you this month! I understand the desire to delay testing. I learned my lesson on early testing in November. Seeing BFNs day after day is damn depressing. FX for Monday!

brooklyngirl18

@TScalei good luck!!

Hopefulmommy1980

Good luck ladies 

justsuzie

@TScalei You got this girl.  Have fun all weekend and set a time you will test after all the fun is over.  FX for you.

laeberge3

Woohoo, I go here now! O was either Friday or Saturday and with a temp spike this morning, I'm pretty confident it happened and wasn't a fake out. Off to eat some pineapple and work to keep my expectations low and the BSC at bay.

@TScalei  Fx for tomorrow!!

TScalei

Well I didn't have to wait until tmrw to test since AF arrived today in the middle of grocery shopping right before I'm supposed to go wedding dress/bridesmaid shopping. Really really thought this might be my cycle so devestated really doesn't describe it. Why even have hope anymore when all you have is disappointment? Getting myself psyched up to try another cycle seems insurmountable right now.

laeberge3

@TScalei  I'm so so sorry. Hugs to you. 

SP128

@laeberge3 Woo hoo.  Pineapple core here you come!!

@TScalei  I am so sorry **hugs**  

Still waiting on AF over here, quite sure I'm out.  12 DPO  

Hopefulmommy1980

@tscalei that sucks  

@laeberge3 good luck

@sp128 hopefully you aren't out. 

Uhlease13

@TScalei hugs, I'm sorry

justsuzie

@TScalei Hugs, sorry.   That sucks big time. 

@SP128 so sorry you think you are out. That sucks.

@laeberge3 fx the wait goes by quick.  hoping for a bfp for you.

amberruka

@TScalei I'm sorry. 
Good luck @laeberge3!
@SP128 you're not out until AF shows up....:-)

Going here now but not excitedly. Between my awesome sickness over the last few days and DH's skin tore up like a Benihana plate after our long-winded BD at -2, we weren't able to do it after that. I'm thinking it has something to do with the Conceive Plus (?). Will just hang out until AF shows or a miracle happens....you know, whichever comes first 

Hopefulmommy1980

@amberruka hope you for better and good luck

laeberge3

@amberruka  Sorry for being sick and H's issue. Was he allergic to something in the Conceive Plus? Still, -2 timing is good! Fx for that miracle! 

amberruka

I'm not sure, it's our 2nd month using it and it happened last month as well. Then again, the lube also made him last longer. So, even with re-applying, it may have been the friction aspect.

Edit: @laeberge3 I think we're cycle buddies this time. I lost my 2 buddies last month to the grads board and would love (no offense) to lose you as well 

laeberge3

@amberruka  Ditto!  Yay for cycle buddies! And yep, I can see how the friction could do that. Poor DH!

TheFox&TheSparrow

@TScalei nooooo I'm so sorry. And dress shopping with AF sucks too. 

I was terrible over the weekend and tested three more times. Ugh! But it's only because I keep getting CRAZY evaps. They only show up waaaay after the time limit but the lines are clear on all of them. So frustrating! (Yes I save my old tests lol) 

brooklyngirl18

@TScalei so sorry  

brooklyngirl18

I think I go here now even though Idk if i technically ovulated yet or not. either way, I had an iui this morning and will have another tomorrow. I am SO crampy today, feels like CD 1. this didn't happen last iui so I'm wondering what's going on. The dr said I had 2 mature follicle and threw 'twins' out there and scared the hell out of me. hopefully 1 took!!! don't get me wrong, I'd be thrilled but scared to death of twins. can someone remind me of the pineapple core routine? I bought one so what the hell.

laeberge3

@brooklyngirl18  Twins would scare/thrill me too! For the pineapple core, you eat it post-O from like 2-5 dpo. I just eat the core with the regular pineapple (and I loveeee pineapple. It's hard to avoid it during other times in the cycle). 

Chilling here at 4 DPO and mostly symptomless, which is good and bad. Though, definitely seeing lots of creamy CM right now. I'm so busy again this week with work and will be next week too so hopefully that keeps me occupied during the rest of the TWW.

Mommyamp

Do you eat an entire pineapple each day???

I'm no expert, but I don't think so, just a few thick slices each day would be ok?
