@mack2342 Glad you at least aren't in limbo with AF. And I love your decision to go on your trip! Can't put our whole lives on pause for this TTC stuff.
@justsuzie I'm hoping soooooo hard that your betas increase!!!
@justsuzie - then I think of other later 30s friends I know that got pregnant no big deal. It was just disheartening to hear my OB say all that stuff when I was finally feeling really good about life.
Tested at 7dpo (too early, I know!). BFN, but I totally expected that. I'm pretty sure implantation doesn't even take place until around now. I don't think I got a +HPT until I was 11dpo last time. Might test every other day just to appease the urge to POAS.
*deeep breaths* Got a positive test today. Feeling optimistic and peaceful about it, which is an improvement over last time when it all felt so ominous from the very beginning...hoping that's a good sign, but of course only time will tell. I'm a little overwhelmed at how far I'm going to have to go to feel like I'm "safe" in this pregnancy, but am trying to just take it one day at a time. I wanted to thank everyone here for creating such a welcoming and supportive community...as we're walking through some of our darkest moments the positive impact of being able to walk with others who have tread the same lonely path is truly immeasurable. I'll be doing some serious lurking and rooting for each and every one of you!!
Bfp I have known for a little over a week but was nervous about posting too early. I found out exactly 9 months after my ultrasound where I knew that my second pregnancy wasn't progressing the way it should and wouldn't be viable. I have moved onto the April board. Best of luck ladies and I will be lurking to check up on you.
Congrats @rosemaryandthyme! ETA: I know what you mean about the feeling safe part. Both of us have had a trisomy pregnancy so it's a little different when you get pregnant again. I don't think I will feel 100% until I have a baby in my arms. But like you, this time I was relatively calm when I tested.
@rklinge0 Yes, I totally agree...loss changes things so much, I know we won't really breath easier until that kid's in our arms! Ihope you have a really smooth and easy 9 months
afm my betas quadrupled in 72 hours so I guess I'm moving onto the grad board. I'll still be lurking though. Thanks for all he support for my nervous ass self.

Ok who's left with me? Not sure on dpo but AF should come Thursday at earliest with pre spotting Tuesday. I'm not holding out hope here but I'm going back to tracking 1 final time before we consult an RE after New Years. Going to give it my all.
