Llama, and Gundy...

AdiAdi
in TTC after 35

How are my unofficial TWW buddies doing?

Gundy, were you able to hold off on testing?

Llama, I have to admit that I'm stalking my own chart, and plunking in every symptom...

I'm 7DPO today, and relieved that my TWW is half over, while simultaneously wondering how long I'll be able to hold off on POAS... I've never gotten an early BFP, but I can't help the nagging in my head that says..."but if you DO get an early BFP, it's probably a good strong bean" because my first two pregnancies I waited til AF was a week late (the first m/c'd dispite the strong and instant BFP), the second resulted in DS, and my third pregnancy I didn't get a BFP til the day after I counted AF late, and I miscarried two weeks later (of course, right after we started telling people)...I didn't chart or even use OPKs with any of those becasue they all happened very quickly, but I was obviously years younger than I am now...and now I AM using OPKs and charting...and I'm trying to decideexactly how long I should wait to POAS... I'm thinking I may start at FF's standard 12DPO... which is comin up quickly on Tuesday...

Sorry for the rambling book...it seems I'm more wound up about it all than I'd like to admit.

    Thanks for checking in, Adi.

    Kinda deflated here today.  My temp plummeted today - like almost a full degree.  So unless this is the mother of all late (11DPO) implantation dips, I am expecting to be the cramp queen all weekend.  I am sending all the luck I can to both of you this cycle.

    Trying to keep a positive spin on things.  We have a 40th b-day party for a friend tomorrow - I can drink!  ;)  And maybe I am destined to have an October baby instead.  DH's nickname for me is Pumpkin - maybe a sign for a just before Halloween LO arrival?  On to cycle 6....

    Hi ladies, can I join your 2WW party? I am halfway through and I am promising myself I will not POAS until at least next Wednesday.  I'm not temping so I don't know if I have had any shifts...My breasts have been sore since the weekend but I think that is a Mindf___, it would have been too early. I thought I O'd on 3 different days last week so who knows. Just hoping we timed things well!

    Good luck ladies!

    TTC since 3/2010. Me 41, DH-49. After 3 years, 6 IUIs and several IVFs we have finally have our beautiful baby girl, born on 11/7/13.

    Hello!  I am here and trying my best not to obsess over anything.  I love that my temp went up this morning but my last 2 cycles were very cruel and looked GREAT up until AF/FP which tells me I am in for at least another week of greatness.  :)  Doing my best to stay positive but TRYING not to think about it..ha ha.

    I will be watching both of you to see what happens!  Good luck to you both and to all on this board!

    Irish - Of course you can join! I am 7DPO today... I'm thinking I'll try testing on Tuesday...I'm not having any asymptoms that would be for SURE pregnancy... just the normal sore bbs, light occasional cramps. Too much fun

    Gundy - I'm hoping it's just a fluke temp and that it's back up tomorrow for you!

    Llama - Keep up hope! I'm here for you!(and probably obsessing just as much as you. lol)

    Can I join too?  I am 8 DPO.  I am having every symptom in the book, sore breasts, nausea, hunger, cramps, very light spotting, etc.  I know that it is all from the estrogen and progesterone supplements but I am still hopeful.

    As far as I'm concerned anyone testing soon can join!

    I know I can't wait to see what my temp does tomorrow, because yesterday it dipped, and today it shot up really high...I'm just on pins and needles trying not to get my hopes up too far. KWIM?
