I didn't test...

LlamamamaLlamamama member
in TTC after 35
I woke up ready to do it and saw pink.  I think FP is on the way.  I don't get it.. my temp was still up this morning.  Hoping with all my mite that it is just some PG spotting that will go away and I can test tomorrow.  :(

    Oh no!  Really hoping that it is implantation spotting. You know I am keeping my fingers crossed for you. Enjoy your thanksgiving, have a glass of wine and let us know tomorrow. I did chart stalk you and your temp is still high so I still have hope for you.  

    Baby dust on its way to you.

    I feel so silly clinging to the hope that my spotting is actually due to pregnancy.  I am guessing that my temp will drop tomorrow and AF will be here in full force.  I was just really hoping this was going to be my time to celebrate.  Thanks all for the baby dust and the positive thoughts.  I hope you all have wonderful Thanksgiving Days.  :)

    You are not silly clinging to hope! I think all of us can attest that we pretty much do it every month :-) we have to have hope. As you know I had spotting a couple of days ago but nothing since and my HPT are still positive so you never know. Have a great day and I hope you get good news tomorrow.

    Well ladies, I am definitely out of the running this month.  At least I got a chart out of this cycle.  Now I will have one to compare to for next month.  But I do hope that my temp drops tomorrow..otherwise I think I will give up on this whole temping thing.. My hopes were WAY to high this cycle.  Can't go thru that again.  I need to know that it is actually showing something not just a false sense of success.  :(  Broken Heart

    Oh Llama I am so sorry :-(. Life is just crappy sometimes. We were all pulling for you. I struggled with the decision to chart as it can look so good and then crash but I found for myself that I felt worse if I didnt chart as I wanted to be sure of when I ovulated. 

    Despite of it all I hope you still had a lovely Thanksgiving and if you need to get things off your chest you can always PM me.  

    :-(

    Llama I am so very sorry. I was holding my breath as I read through this thread. I was really hoping  that it was going to be a happy ending. I have never charted so don't know anything about it. What I do know is that sometimes like if just so unfair and at times like this it just sucks. There is no other way to express it.

    My heart goes out to you. Cry, drink, vent do what you have to do to get through the next couple of days and then pick back up and hope again. This is what I am trying to do as well because without hope we have nothing.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. <hugs>

    Thanks all.. I am not feeling super festive tonight but I know it will pass.  I had hopes to go out shopping tonight to make myself feel better but sigh..just not feeling it.  Thanks for "hoping" along with me.  I really felt all the love.  :)

    I'm sorry, Llama.  My period came before my temp dropped back below my coverline last month as well --  I had tested and knew I probably wasn't pg but it sucked nevertheless.  I hope your Thanksgiving was still a good one and that you weren't too upset.

    On the bright side (if I may) -- your charting this month has shows that you are indeed ovulating and that your luteal phase is sufficient (more than ten days -- yours is either 11 or 13 days, depending on when you O'd -- could be either the day FF shows or two days before, I think).  That's good info to have.

    Me too!  I am not a temp taker but I have been chart stalking you this month and I was really hopeful for you.  I'm so sorry this isn't the month.  And I agree with njpabzy, don't give up hope...you are doing all that you can...
