Feeling Anxious...

in Trying to Get Pregnant

My husband and I have been TTC since August.  According to all the ovulation charts, and my own FAM charting, we were right on the money with a potential conception time.  It's now Sept 30th, and I should have started yesterday or the day before.  I am feeling anxious, but nervous to take a prego test and be disappointed.  I don't have any symptoms really, just tired--but I'm a high school teacher, so what's new. 

 Is it too early to tell?  Should we just keep waiting?  Last month, I was right on time, 28 days, and this month I'm off.  My temp is still high, and normally the day I'm going to start it drops.  Any suggestions?

    If you're really charting, you would know when you ovulated and you would know when to test.  If you're late....POAS.  We can't tell you if you're pregnant or not.  GL!

    Agree.

    Also, if you just started TTC in August, it is too early to worry, it takes a healthy couple up to a year to conceive.

    If you aren't charting, you could have ovulated late. It would explain a BFN and no period.

    Please for the love of goodness, don't call yourself spaghetti sauce. It's pregnant.

    GL on testing!

    I would pee on a stick.  Just know that it may be negative if you are late.  Hope you get a BFP!

    Yup, pee on a stick. There is some helpful info for newbies in my siggy link, and there are tutorials on FertilityFriend.com to help you learn about the charting process. Good luck!

    Maybe I should have added that I couldn't track my temp well because I was sick with a sinus infection for part of the month so I can't tell how long I've had a high temp.  that's where I'm thrown off...I'm not looking for someone to tell me I'm prego, just wanted some advice/support/encouragement.

    thanks

    Sorry about your BFN today.  I keep stalking you hoping to see good news.  Your temps are looking good.  Fingers are crossed.

    BFN = Big Fat Negitive, POAS = Pee on a stick.

    ETA: Yes, FMU (first morning urine) is best.

    BFN=big fat negative

    POAS=pee on a stick

    There is a glossary on the left.  Also, just so you don't get flamed, try not to use the word Prego, other bumpies will tell you it is a sauce.  Using PG and pregnant - you will be taken more seriously.

    If you do get your BFP (big fat postive), early congrats!  If not, lurk a bit here and you will learn a lot.

    Good luck!

    oh! well, thanks for the advice!  That's wall my PG friends call it, plus it's easier to type...someone posted about spagetti sauce and I had no idea what she was talking about.
