How are you doing?
I refused to POAS today-I was too scared too. It's so irrational-but just scared to. I am 14dpo today. AF should come tomorrow. So I am just going to wait her out. I hate feeling like a negative Nancy.
I wish your belly button turned blue when you were pregnant or something. Wouldn't that be nice?

Re: **madelyn**
I'm ok. I'm not hopeful for this cycle at all, though, and that just plain sucks. I'm 99% it didn't work.
Not irrational at all--seeing those stark white tests sucks so, so much. How are you feeling? Anything to lead you to believe that AF is or isn't coming?
It would be so incredible if the belly button thing happened! That would make life so, so much better.
And I hate to feel like a negative Nancy too, but that's exactly how I feel.
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
I've only ever seen BFN's. It's hard to een imagining it being possible I'm pregnant. And after last cycle and feeling like I had every symptom in the book, and still a BFN, it's hard to trust myself that I'm not imagining things. Or influencing myself into thinking it's more than it is. I have to constantly remind myself that I have the ability to turn the littlest symptom into something bigger-and it has only EVER led to a BFN. My mom and my sister both had NO symptoms when they were pregnant. Absolutely nothing.
Are you having a lack of symptoms or just different ones from this past cycle?
I'm trying to hold out hope for myself-and I am definitely holding it out for you!
So if AF doesn't show tomorrow are you going to test? Or go in for a beta?
I know the feeling, I always over-analyze everything and have all but once ended up with nothing. And the one time I ended up with *something* it was gone as fast as it came. Sickening.
I don't have any of the symptoms that I had last time. But I know every pregnancy can be different and that some of the symptoms I did have may have been the result of conception acctually happening in my body (like the extreme thirst and the CM)..but that's my rationalization. Maybe they have nothing to do with conception, I don't know. I just don't feel like it worked. Something in my heart is telling me no.
Sometimes hope is all we have and it REALLY sucks when we lose it so I'm glad you are trying to hold on! I'll be thinking of you. And, this sounds awful but, I really hope you are wrong about your cycle right now
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
I'll test on Thursday if it doesn't come tomorrow. We fly down Thursday afternoon to Orlando for a wedding. The only positive to getting a BFN would be drinking as much as I'd like at the wedding. And the possibility of getting upgraded to a jacuzzi room and really enjoying that!!! And maybe being a little less bloated so I could fit better into my dress? haha TRYING to think of all the positives of not getting a BFN-to which DH says, "but we really don't want to enjoy those things do we?"
I said this last time, but I really should have saved the list of symptoms from last month so I could compare.
I'll be saying an extra special prayer for both of us-that it be a BFP, but if it isn't, that we have the strength to keep going!
Make sure to keep us updated!
I'm so jealous of your trip. I'd love, love, love to get away right now. Unfortunately with DH's season right around the corner, it isn't possible. ::sigh::
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
We are looking forward to it! DH has had a rough week with student issues and a flood in one of the residence halls. He's reallllllly looking forward to the 70 degree weather!
I (and this is totally TMI) saw some pink CM like an hour ago. Nothing more (and I've checked 5 times since then). I totally want to have a big glass of wine and go to sleep. Getting through tomorrow is going to be tough.
Stupid IF.
