8-9 dpo here. I've been peeing on OPKs every morning because they detect hcg so I'm hoping they get darker. Today is *******slightly***** maybe darker than yesterday. Maintaining hope.
Meh, I'm out. Tested yesterday at 12 DPO (couldn't make it to AF) but she should be here by Thursday. Strangely this cycle I've felt no symptoms of pregnancy or AF. Silly ambivalent uterus.
@MooFish2364 and @ThePax89Thanks! I'm much better with a NO than this maybeeeee nonsense. TTC is all maybe, except CD 1.
I have mild OCD that manifest itself with obsessive thoughts stuck on a loop, rather than compulsions, so TTC is really hard on my brain, but usually only from about 10 DPO to AF.
@cooaladoll Sorry for the ambivalent uterus. FX for next cycle!

Welp, I've entered 2ww insanity. 9 dpo. Physically, I'm dying. Worst headache of my life. And exhausted. I peed on an opk, a wondfo, and a frer this am. Dark opk. Maybe a faint line of wondfo and a possible faint line on the frer.
I had a particularly crazy day today. Spent long time staring at my negative tests, both in the flesh and on my laptop. Even dug them out of the garbage, until I finally took some stuff meant for the compost and buried them but good under it. Spent hours browsing pictures of BFPs. SS worse than ever before. Googled things I already freaking know the answers to. I would have tested again today, but thankfully I drink too much water and my urine is always too dilute during the day. Feel like my mind is slipping away from me, but I know it'll go back to normal in a couple days at most, so I guess I'll just hold on.

I'm out ! Spotting this afternoon at 12 DPO. I used to have a 13 LP with one moment of spotting the day before AF and I suppose it hasn't changed.

I was 100% sure I saw lines yesterday and woke up at 5:30 to test again. Negative. I'm an anxious mess this 2ww. I feel like I was pregnant and am miscarrying. It's awful. I'm only 10 dpo so the tests can be wrong. I just need certainty.

I'm on 9DPO and trying SO HARD to ignore/forget about the TWW. I am determined not to test before AF is due. I keep reminding myself I never have any symptoms in the TWW anyway so I am really trying to to SS. Keeping myself busy from wake to sleep is the only thing keeping my mind off it this month.
So I am still going strong with no testing, but my dreams the last 2 nights have been WILD. And I woke up remembering them, which literally never happens... unless I am pregnant. So I guess we will see. Trying really hard not to get my hopes up at all.

I'm 5dpo and when I logged into my fertility app there was a huge notification saying something like "congratulations, it looks like you've ovulated! You can begin testing as early as 7dpo..." Thanks for feeding into my BSC.
@mwoodside, I have been having crazy vivid dreams the past few nights! But maybe it's all the Cap 'N Crunch I have been eating before bed...Good luck to you.
I am pretty sure I am out, too. I was 99% sure I felt implantation cramping Friday at 9DPO so I began to get my hopes up. I caved and tested this morning and got a BFN at 12DPO. So I've lost hope for this cycle and am waiting for AF.
@ThePax89, I am totally going to keep testing for that exact reason. My HCG tends to run high in early pg though so I am expecting the worst, hoping for the best. Thanks for the positive energy though. I need it.
I'm pretty sure AF is coming soon. I'm feeling really down today. A pregnancy announcement caught me really off guard today when I typically steel myself in advance to prevent myself from feeling badly. Ugh. This sucks.
@MooFish2364 I get that exactly 7 days before my period, for about 6 hours. Murderous.
@MWoodside I'm sorry. I hope you feel better soon.

I can tell AF is on her way for myself, too. Don't even need a test. This is making me realize how much I want to be pregnant this time, whereas before I was almost relieved not to be. Back to the drawing board...
So FF gave me O crosshairs and what does my crazy brain do? Instantly start calculating what my EDD would be. Way to not go all BSC and keep it mellow. Hoping I can keep myself talked off the ledge for the next 10ish days

@silentP I am sorry you're out. It's so frustrating.
@MWoodsideBOOOO! I am sorry. I know that's disappointing.
@SnobunnieMelSAME! I had not even been given the green light to TTC, and I had already looked at the EDD for my next three cycles. Did you decide to DTD, or were you still waiting on HCG to fall? I can't remember.
Today, we were given the green light to use my trigger shot tomorrow evening and "relations" were recommended tonight, Saturday and Sunday. What a great weekend we are going to have! There has not been much sexy time in our house for a long while....
I'm scheduled to have a beta test on April 22. I currently do not possess any HPTs. I am not sure if I can wait it out or not. I am typically full of BSC during the TWW, but the last pregnancy I had I did not test until AF was late.
We will see!! With the drugs, it was suggested to "test out my shot" so that I can feel comfortable later knowing if when I test it's a true positive. But, I have been working hard on trying to stay present and grounded.... and testing early and often seems contrary to that. So, I am saying "out loud" (for my own accountability) that I will try not to test until 4/22.
Thanks for reading my novel.

@fivetimesnoluck were given the green light at my two week visit so we did a solid 3 weeks of EOD fun time. Only missed 1 or 2. I tested out my hcg and started getting a negative Friday, looks like i ovulated Saturday according the FF. We only hit -4,-1,+1 since my OPK never turned, i think i missed the surge.
Good luck with he trigger. Not having any tests at home should help you keep away the crazies.

I'd hoped for a Christmas baby as soon as we started TTC. Might still happen, but that would such a long time from now it doesn't seem too appealing anymore. Alas.
