Trying to Get Pregnant

BFN

I'm probably testing way too early because AF isn't due to come until Friday at the absolute earliest (my cycle is super irregular) but still it sucks.  I took a Clearblue digital Sunday (negative) and a dollar store test this afternoon (should have waited for FMU tomorrow, I know).  I know it could be phantom symptoms but I felt really strongly that I was KU.  I know it's not over until AF crashes the party but I'm a little discouraged.  

Granted this was the first month we started trying and I'm not charting temps or anything yet so if I'm not KU then it's not really surprising why.  We've just been doing the BD a lot this month and stopped using protection and I'm impatient!  

Got some OPKs from the dollar store too but I'm thinking maybe I should get a bbt and start tracking...

With DD we didn't try, we just didn't not try and I didn't realize I was KU until somewhere around 8 weeks (again, super irregular cycle) so this waiting is agonizing. 

Thanks for listening to me vent.   :)

Re: BFN

  • Sorry to hear that.  I've been having a super crappy day because of the same reason.  I know it isn't expected to get pregnant on the first month trying (as this is/was our first month).  But it's hard to hear so many people around me that have gotten pregnant so easily and quickly.  I got a BFN today, and AF is due tomorrow morning.  I've been very bummed today, and to top it off, our friend's baby decided to show up early, today of all days!

  • Don't forget that the digital tests usually aren't as sensitive either.  Good luck to you!

    And more expensive! Use the cheapies and the digitals to confirm. Good luck to you.

  • Thanks, I'm hoping maybe I am KU and just tested way early.  I got the digis super cheap on sale but then I went by the dollar store today and got 5 cheapies there and some OPKs there.  

    Can I get a bbt anywhere?  Like at Target or CVS?

  • good luck! keeping fx for you, but if AF does show, I would definetly recommend temping. My periods are pretty irregular too and temping has at least helped me to know when I've O'd and then I can know when to possibly expect AF...and when to test! :) 

     

    GL again! :)

    I got my Mabis from Walmart, hopefully you will get your BFP and won't need it. GL! Wink

  • Thanks.  Question:  do you start tracking your temp when AF arrives or when?  I am clueless as to how this works.

  • Yes, I would start as soon as AF arrives to avoid any confusion. Just make sure to temp as close to the same time each day as possible. GL!
