Thank you all so, so much for all your kind words and advice. I think I am going to make sure it looks like the line is getting darker tomorrow and then call the Dr. I know I am not one of the most active on the board, but I hope you all know you've helped me through one of the most difficult times I've been through, and I wish you all the very very best and BFP's, and I plan on lurking for a bit.
Congrats @amdogger82! and all the other BFPs. I must admit I never lurked in this thread while I was on the TTC bench.... but I'm entering my TWW now. Ugh.

Anybody afraid to HIO/orgasm during TWW, specifically in the "implantation window"?? I know I'm probably being silly but I know when/if I get my BFP I'll be scared then, too, but didn't expect that fear to leak into my TWW.
How is everyone doing? Where are we all in the TWW? I'm at 8dpo and not feeling "pregnant" but trying to remain hopeful. May test on Friday morning.
@rainbowturtles I haven't worried about that in the TWW yet but I know I will once I get my BFP. I don't even know where i am. Haha. I think I am 5 or 6 dpo. If I don't get pregnant this cycle I am definitely starting temping next month. I want to have a beer with dinner tonight (we are doing tacos with guacamole and i love corona) but am stressing myself out about it too much to enjoy it. Logic tells me one beer won't affect implantation, but what if? It's just hard...I'm preaching to the choir. I promised myself after my CP that I'm not going to test until after my period is late so I hope I can keep that up. How is everyone else doing?

lol @rainbowturtles! Don't give me more to worry about. I am 2-3 dpo. I feel our timing and frequency was very good, but trying so hard not to get my hopes up.
Haha sorry, ladies!!! From what I (obviously) googled, sex is fine and actually can be good and orgasm is inconclusive. I know I'm just being cuckoo lol I've been protecting my stomach from dog feet already...also silly and paranoid! But my boobs hurt, too, so the dogs are like "damn, girl! Where do I go?!" LoL
Let's all wish @BornReady all the good vibes and happy thoughts we can today. It's her FET time!!!!

@SnobunnieMel I opted for betas. My first draw was yesterday at 12 dpo and it was 34.9. The second draw is tomorrow but I won't know the results until Monday. The nurse on the phone thought the #s were low, based on my LMP of 7/3... I know I crazy long cycles and I know when I O'ed, so I'm not worried about being below their expectations. I just don't know if the #s are too low in general.
@Amdogger82 *lurking* popping out to say that my first beta with this pregnancy was 19 at 4 weeks post LMP (I knew I ovulated late but it made the nurse nervous to tell me) and I'm 17 weeks now.
@Amdogger82 - Agree that as long as it doubles you are good. And waiting for 2nd test and results is hardest so I'm wishing you patience and distraction next few days...

So I broke my own rule and tested this morning. Last night my boobs were hurting much worse than normal at this point, and the day before I had some cramping/twinges as I call them, and we have some friends coming into town tonight to go to a baseball game so I knew I'd probably have a beer or two, so wanted to do a test just in case. CD 23, possibly only 9DPO. Like I said in an earlier post, I typically ovulate around CD16 or so, and haven't been temping but using OPKs, but this time I felt a lot of twinges on CD13 and my opk that day was positive. Long story short, I got a faint BFP on one of those cheapo tests that are like Wondfos but a different brand. I had a CVS brand first response test so did that too with same FMU and same thing, light BFP. I am excited but so nervous since according to my tracker it is way too early! According to that, AF isn't supposed to start until Aug 21, but I guess if I ovulated early like I think I did then it could make sense? I don't know what to think. And of course it is a weekend so can't call my OB to get betas until Monday.
I'm going to retest in the morning. Any advice/stories to keep me from going crazy til then/Monday when I can get the betas? Haha!
