in TTC after 35
After my negative test last weekend, I stopped testing and waited for my temp to drop and CD1 to come. I told DH what was happening Tuesday and he was very supportive. I had a bunch of Wondfo OPKs but only 2 Wondfo HPT tests left, so yesterday I used an OPK and got a positive. This morning no temp drop and no period, so I broke down and used my last FRER because it was almost 1 week later and no period. Holy Shit!!!!! Two solid lines. I opened a Wondfo HPT to see what was going on and got a BFN. I guess I had a very bad batch of wondfos. I should have known, when in doubt, confirm with a FRER! I showed DH and he was happy, but cautious. He said we could do a happy dance and frequently discuss it after the dating U/S. I'm in total agreement as we don't want to get our hopes up to be let down again. The plan is not to say anything to anyone until the new year. I will probably use my digital at the end of next week for extra reassurance.
If things progress in the next few months, then this will be the last thread I start and for the first time in 15 years, I will not be in my classroom to greet my students on the first day of school. I almost wish I could still be blissfully unaware so I wouldn't be freaking out about every cramp, pull, or tug and I could be here a few weeks longer. Pgal brain is already setting in and I am sorta terrified. I am still unsure about posting this because of my post at the beginning of the week and I apologize if anyone is hurt or offended for a BFP post after posting about a loss less than a week before, but I have been so blessed to have the support of you wonderful ladies and would have been lost this week without you. I am tearing up just typing this. Thanks for the laughs, hugs, tears, and love. I will lurk, but will miss you all. I hope to see BFPs in the coming weeks and more August soon to be mommies joining me.
